My Year in Analogue: Something New, Something Oldwritten by murdoc_niccals on 2014-12-15 in #lifestyle
Hi, everyone! I'd like to share with you my 2014 summary on analogue photography. Some things I did were completely new, while some were my good old habits. This year I learned how to develop black and white film, which I consider my greatest milestone. But the most important thing is that in 2014, I remain in love with Lomography! And the rest? Well, let's see...3 7 Share Tweet
Fresh from the Lab: One Roll of Film and the Lubitel 166Uwritten by fadjaradiputra on 2014-11-07 in #lifestyle
Adi, Ekeu, and I did a lomowalk around downtown Bandung last Saturday, the beginning of November. We planned to use our Lubitel cameras with only one roll of film each. We were inspired by the One Roll of Film Project by four Tokyo-based photographers with their Hasselblad cameras. This is about the one roll of film I shot with the Lubitel 166U, which made me love shooting in medium format even more.8 9 Share Tweet

Long ago, when photography had just started, people living back then only get to shoot black and white photography.

Much to his delight it was no regular croissant but a hazelnut chocolate croissant! I had fruit...After breakfast we packed up and headed to the train station. We had time to kill so I went to look for a post office to ship our Oktoberfest outfits home as we are not sure if they will be in style anywhere else on our journey. ...

This wouldn't even play.
Good action packed movie. Typical revenge story but still interesting. Both main characters are well portrayed. If you are looking for action entertainment I recommend this flic.
Better than I expected. I like Colin Farrell - here he has a great screen presence and exudes some humanity and emotion. Lots of blood and gore but a really quirky love story too which is its major appeal. Some clever touches and dialogue too.
A good film with with excellent acting, notably from Noomi Rapace. The movie really picks up when her character enters the movie. The story is a bit confusing at times but it all comes together towards the end. The main lines of the ending were predictable but it was still a satisfying conclusion as it was done in an interesting way and there was some originality to how it was done.
Above average crime drama. Well acted. Storyline has a couple twists to it. Violent. Something just didn't raise the level of this movie to particularly good. Seemed slow or overlong at times.
very good
Well done movie with a good cast.
Colin Farrell is good as always.
Surprisingly entertaining. Fairly well acted, lots of action scenes (ie. shoot outs, chases) though a bit over the top at times.
I really enjoyed this. A slow burning revenge flick with a distinct European flavor that relied on character development and the building tension that defined them. The leads are spot-on in their respective roles. Colin Farrell excels as the solemn tightly-wound wronged man; Noomi Rapace as his neighbor, interested in him for more than just his eyebrows; and Terrence Howard as the laid-back sleazebag crime boss. Danish director Niels Arden Oplev ("The Girl With The Dragon Tattoo") crafted a fine piece here with a satisfying climax. Underrated.

Product description
Her name was Henrietta Lacks, but scientists know her as HeLa. Born a poor black tobacco farmer, her cancer cells - taken without her knowledge - became a multimillion-dollar industry and one of the most important tools in medicine. Yet Henrietta's family did not learn of her 'immortality' until more than twenty years after her death, with devastating consequences ...Balancing the beauty and drama of scientific discovery with dark questions about who owns the stuff our bodies are made of, "The Immortal Life of Henrietta Lacks" is an extraordinary journey in search of the soul and story of a real woman, whose cells live on today in all four corners of the world. "A fascinating, harrowing, necessary book". (Hilary Mantel, "Guardian"). "A heartbreaking account of racism and injustice". ("Metro"). "A fine book...a gripping read...The book has deservedly been a huge bestseller in the US. It should be here, too". ("Sunday Times").

Customer reviews
By Tracy Hudson 03 Apr 2011
This book details how Henrietta Lacks (or HeLa) had a phenomenal effect on medical research. Unfortunately it was only through her death that this happened and it is sad that her family were never fully informed of what was happening or developments that her mother helped to uncover. I think this is a great story and certainly tarnishes medical research methods.

Moria started out in the spring of 2003 to bring together the brutality and epic-ness of metal, along with the intensity, integrity, and ideals of hardcore. Coming from the central California town of Salinas, they have played with many large touring acts, gaining them a strong fallowing in their home state. Moria has also completed several tours including a full U.S. tour, and treks through along west coast and southwest, with many more on the way. Now with their debut release on Process Records, No Light Ahead, they'll be sure to turn heads with their intense and heavy hardcore influenced metal.

Historical Traveler Reviews Hilton Cincinnati Netherland Plaza
What a beautiful hotel!
This absolutely gorgeous place needs to be on a best in America list. Found the service and attention of all staff to be some of the most cordial in a long while. An old friend and I had a whirlpool package which was relaxing and wonderful. Such a light, clean, and airy room. The Palm Court waiters were out of a story book, and the food was superlative. I'm giving it five well earned stars.
A Jewel in the Queen City
I stayed at the Hilton Cincinnati Netherland Plaza for one night the weekend of 16 July 2004, as part of the hotel's special deal with the Cincinnati Opera. I was going to be in town for a performance of "Don Giovanni," and thought it would be nice to stay overnight instead of driving home late. I had never been to that hotel before, and after reading the mixed reviews on this website, I approached it with a slight bit of trepidation, but in the end, I was extremely pleased.
The hotel is at least 70 years old, but her years weren't showing in the few locations I saw. There were parts of her that reminded me of Louisville's own Brown Hotel and the Seelbach -- capturing both our modern age and a bygone era. Located nearly dead center downtown Cincy, it is close to a number of things including Fountain Square -- the lovely meeting place for residents and visitors, Saks Firth Avenue, Tiffany's, TJ Maxx and numerous other department stores, as well as Great America Ballpark, home of the Reds, and the Cincinnati Music Hall, home of the opera company.
One of the valets helped me unload (valet parking is located on a floor under the hotel) and I was quickly on my way from the lower lobby to the main floor.
There were no problems with finding my reservation (I had a wait time of about 30 seconds), and the front desk clerk was particularly efficient and very nice.
My room was on the fifteenth floor, which was quiet for the most part -- something I appreciated, and while on the smallish side, was fine since I was staying alone. The room was very clean, which is something I pay very, very close attention to when I stay in hotels. Everything was in its' place and in working order (especially the A/C); the bed was comfortable with lovely fresh linens, 4 pillows already on the Queen sized bed, and a nice white comforter in place of one of those hideous patterned bedspreads you usually get. There was plenty of closet space, complete with an iron and ironing board; lighting was good throughout, and the room overlooked the PNC Bank Building with the Ohio and Great America Ballpark in the background. Nice view. The bathroom was also small, but there were plenty of clean towels and a clean tub, shower, sink, floor and commode. I didn't find any trash or leftovers from previous guests. The walls are a tad thin, but I wasn't kept awake and barely heard a bump. Improvements are being made on the 15th floor as a paint job was in progress when I arrived.
I hadn't been in my room but a few minutes when the phone rang and it was the front desk. The clerk said she had accidentally kept my credit card and wanted to know if she could run it up to my room. I checked and realized that I didn't have it; and was floored and kicking myself for not getting it back (I'm usually more careful than that). She was at my room in moments, apologizing, but I consider that honest and great service.
Praise to the valet parking. You're advised to call down 10-15 minutes before you need your car as these boys are very busy, and the times I needed my car were at peak times -- dinner time and check-out. But they respond with a smile; were quite mannerable; gave good directions to get me started (I was mainly using Mapquest and maps)...and I was more than happy to tip them.
I had breakfast in the Palm Grille, which is part of the Palm Court Restaurant. I decided to go with the buffet as it was the most price conscious as you get coffee and juice with your buffet selections. The scrambled eggs, bacon, sausage and waffles were very good and filling. The restaurant was busy so service was a bit slow in refilling the coffee cup or glass of juice, but it improved, so that I had a few relaxing moments to sit back with a book before leaving.
While my stay on the 15th floor was delightful, I can only hope that those on the 9th floor survived. The hotel seems to draw a lot of conventions (I counted at least three), and one group I saw was a fraternity reunion. I was holding my breath when I saw 6 of them getting on the elevator with me on my return from the opera -- along with their 4-24 pack cases of beer! They got off on the 9th floor...and I doubt anyone slept. My hope is that since this was a large reunion (some were wearing professionally made name tags so this was obviously a huge group), the 9th floor was booked for them alone. Otherwise, your stay was going to be a disaster!
For me though, the hotel was a total delight and I have no qualms recommending it. I will be staying there again when I'm next in Cincinnati, which I hope will be soon.
Terrible Service
The lobby and meeting rooms are beautiful, however. . . The rooms are very small and the walls are very thin! I could hear every conversation from the rooms next door. I was very disappointed in the concierge service. When one travels out of town, they should be able to rely on the Concierge. We asked for a paticular type of resturant and were sent to something entirely different! In addition, we were told that Covington stores were open on Sunday - and they were not. We were stuck in Covington and unable to get a taxi. We called bact to the Concierge to get help getting a taxi and he gave us a telephone number to a taxi service. When we called that taxi service, we were told that they do not work the Covington Area! We asked to Concierge to make a call to a resturant. When we got there he had not called! This group of concierge's were tiped well - but did not perform their duties - Lesson learned, do not tip these people until you get back from your adventure!
Maid service was also poor - Never left enough towels. I would not stay there again.
Weekend at the Hilton
The gentleman at the front desk welcomed me and chatted with me about the hotel's Art Deco architecture. He reminded me of the time change that night.
My room rate was $139.20 per night. There were two closets in my room, #2820. The bathroom was small with very little counter space. The bed was nice and comfortable. I ordered the music video service but the sound quality wasn't very good.
I liked being able to walk to the Palomino restaurant and the shops at Fountain Place without having to step outdoors.
Overnight valet parking was $18.00 per day. You pick your car up at a different place from where you drop it off----that's a little tricky.
I found most restaurants in the downtown area closed for Sunday lunch.
I settled for salty spinach dip and some uninspired pizza at the Uno restaurant when I should have gone back to the Hilton for lunch.
Having stayed at both the Cincinnatian and the Hilton Netherland Plaza, I think I slightly prefer the Cincinnatian.
Beautiful hotel
beautiful hotel with tons of fine artwork. rooms are clean, comfortable. to top it off, got room for under 100 dollars on a saturday night. will definately return.
Romantic Time
I surprized my husband for our 22nd wedding anniversary and took him to
the Hilton. This hotel was beautiful! Our room, with a jucuzzi was
awesome. The bed was very comfy and cozy. I called ahead and ordered
champaign glasses and strawberries. Both were there when we got to our
room. People were friendly and very helpful.
We went to Morton's Steack House for dinner. That was delicious. The whole night was not cheap, but hey, we deserve it. We've been happily married for 22 years!!
We had a wonderful time and will not hesitate to go back.
Spectacular in every way.
One of the best hotels in the Midwest, if not the country. Decor is nearly unbelievable, Palm Court rivals anything in Europe. Staff couldn't be nicer and prices, both rooms and meals, were reasonable.
Best possible location in a fun downtown area. I'd never stay anywhere else in Cincy.
I've travelled to a fair number of hotels around the world and I challenge anyone to find one that's more beautiful. Literally every inch is a work of art, yet, the whole things is very tastefully done. In addition, the service was OUTSTANDING! On 2 different occassions I had staff literally walk food up to my conference, 3 flights of stairs up! Don't miss this place!
A Very Positive Experience
The hotel is beautiful. My room was large, lovely and comfortable. Everything was simply nice. I will stay here again and again and again.
What an Looker!
The Netherland Plaza is, simply put, breathtakingly beautiful. I challenge you to find another hotel in the US, and perhaps in the world, that has such stunning and awe-inspiring authentic Art Deco era appointments. I was expecting to bump into William Randolph Hearst at every turn. However, "Rosebud" would never have tolerated the service here which falls woefully short of the surroundings. In response to the broken cooling unit (which ran like a compressor all night and soaked the floor)in my smallish room, I got a "Sorry 'bout that!" Similarly, the service in the dining area alternated between snarling and inept. You gotta see the public areas, but unfortunately, there are no brains behind that beauty.

Radio Buzz: Get A Picture with Santa AND His Guns at AZ Gun Club
The Radio Buzz. The top talk radio stories of the day.
Audio clip:
You better watch out. If you're on the naughty list this year,
Santa's packing heat!
In Scottsdale, Arizona at least; where at the Scottsdale Gun Club you AND the kids can get a picture with Santa and his high powered rifle.
The cost? Ten bucks to capture this lasting image.
To a lot of folks I'm sure this is the coolest thing ever. But is the image of Old St. Nick with his machine gun a healthy thing for your kids to associate with Christmas?
"You know, personally I do believe that there can be harm. You know, what concerns me the most is that there doesn't appear to be a lot of thought put into the impact images like these have on children or people who have been traumatized by guns."
That's Psychotherapist Meg Batterson speaking with Scott at WERC in Birmingham, Alabama.
"If kids are taking pictures with semi-automatic rifles with Santa Claus, I think they learn to associate feelings of joy and happiness, the spirit of Christmas, with these kinds of weapons."
Families could choose to pose with pistols, semi-auto AR-15s or grenade launchers.
But! As Batterson points out:
"In not all cases will it be detrimental to children, but possibly in some."
Jingle Bells — and shotgun shells.
I'm Jessica Curtis, and that's your Talk Radio Buzz from Fox News Radio.

Dana Mrkich – Different teachers use different words but we're all really saying the same thing: "believe it and you'll see it", "ask, believe, receive", "as ye shall ask, so shall ye receive", "If you can see it and dream it, you can achieve it."
These are more than just inspirational quotes, they are laws of vibration and reality creation. I wish we were all taught this in school, but it's never too later to remember these teachings and apply them to our lives.
One thing that is important to also know in conjunction with the above is the small print disclaimers that follow : "if it is truly meant for you", "in the best most right divine timing", "if it is for your highest good". These aren't the Universe covering itself just in case things don't work out. They are laws working for you. Sometimes we think we want something, or someone, but our Soul can see what is up the road – something better, something more in alignment with who we really are – and so we are re-directed.

From the dustjacket:INSIDE DUST COVER DESCRIPTION BELOW ....
Almost everyone eats yogurt nowadays, but few people realize its possibilities in everyday cooking. As a Turk, the late Irfan Orga found this deplorable. He had been familiar all his life with many ways of using it, and wished to share this knowledge. Most of the recipes in this book were collected by him in his native country.
His book begins by telling you how to produce your own yogurt. If you want to be very economical you can follow the instructions it gives for making the necessary equipment (not complicated); or you can use a machine such as the Yogomagic. Either way your yogurt will be thicker, creamier and less acid than most commercial products. You don't, of course, have to make your own -- only someone raised in the Balkans would consider it absolutely essential -- but you are likely to become a convert to the process if you do so.
In some of Irfan Orga's recipes the quantity of yogurt used is small, but it always makes all the difference to the dishes in which it appears. They range from rich stews to light sweets and sauces, and all of them are simple to cook and delicious to eat.
Yogurt is a healthy food. In the Balkans longevity and resistance to disease are often attributed to it, and Captain Orga found several instances of its successful use as a medicine. It is often recommended, too, by modern dieticians in the West as one of the less fattening of wholesome foods. But for most people its chief virtue is that they like it -- and they will like it even better once they start employing it in the many different and interesting ways suggested in this book.
IN WRITING this book it has been my aim to extend the average person's knowledge as to the uses of yogurt.
Yogurt (pronounced yort) has been used by the Turks and Bulgars for so many centuries that its origin is quite lost in the mists of time. It has been introduced into Europe and America in very recent years and the majority of people who eat it, because they have been told it is good for them, know remarkably little about it. It is, of course, a harmless microbe which acts on fresh milk and transforms it into yogurt and is known in the medical world as the Bacillus Bulgaris. This denotes its origin. In the Balkans sheep's milk is regarded as the best milk from which to make yogurt but as sheep's milk is rather indigestible, invalids and convalescents are fed on the yogurt made from cow's milk. In fact, yogurt is such an important aid to good health that every hospital in Turkey serves it to patients as a matter of course. Twenty-three million Turks eat it daily (but never with sugar unless it is part of a dessert) and it is only produced on a commercial basis in the cities, for no Turkish housewife would dream of buying something that can be made three or four times cheaper at home and without trouble. In this book I have given the method for producing thick, sweet, fresh yogurt in the home. It is the method which has been used successfully in my family for five generations.
Now for a few words as to the therapeutic qualities of yogurt. As a medicine it might well be called a miracle worker and I have seen it act successfully on a dog which had been poisoned. It is so powerful that it fights and destroys the harmful germs that breed in the intestines-- the cause of many of our diseases. Daily use of yogurt ensures regular habits, the blood is purified and skin diseases cleared in a very short time. It is remarkably efficient in all intestinal troubles. For feverish conditions it can be given safely when no other food is allowed; it induces sleep and calms the nerves and thus has a remarkable effect on hysterical subjects. In Turkey pregnant women are recommended to eat yogurt, or drink it as ayran (recipe given in this book) in preference to fresh milk, and nursing mothers include yogurt in their diet as a matter of course.
Medical observations have proved that the yogurt bacillus remains alive even after the passage through the intestines whilst the bacillus of other milk products cannot survive this. In the east of Turkey, where the people are very strong, it is considered that yogurt, eaten with crushed garlic, is a certain preventative for tuberculosis. The peasants attribute their longevity and resistance to disease to yogurt and outside every hut in summer -- when the temperature is in the hundreds -- you will see a large vessel covered by an old sack where the family yogurt is setting. Yogurt is a natural food and because the bacillus is not fussy about its breeding conditions it only needs the simplest equipment. The most important point is that the bacillus should be fresh, which means more sweet than sour, for sour bacillus makes sour yogurt--although this will correct itself in time as I have shown in the following pages.
A good deal of nonsense has been talked about chilling, so let me say as emphatically as possible that chilling on ice is not recommended. Keep the yogurt in a cool, even cold, larder, by all means, but do not refrigerate.
The following recipes are designed to give you the maximum pleasure from yogurt. To see a bottle of yogurt, a few days old more than likely and acid as vinegar, served with fruit pulp and sugar which has dissolved into a watery mass, is a revolting sight and unlikely to appeal even to the healthiest appetite. To one brought up on fresh, sweet yogurt it is nothing less than tragedy to see how Europeans accept the thinness and sourness of yogurt as inevitable. Yogurt should be capable of being cut with a spoon and should never be of near-pourable consistency. It should be thick and smooth, without a trace of lumpiness, and should be the colour of cream. Powdered, tinned, skimmed or condensed milk will not make the yogurt of the Balkans, but cream, because of the high content of butter-fat, is the ideal medium. In Turkey on very special feast days the yogurt is made with fresh cream but this is far too extravagant for the ordinary household. Cow's milk is excellent and from now on I hope you will start making your own yogurt and find enjoyment in testing the following recipes
--as well as perhaps enjoying more perfect health than you have known before.
Istanbul, surely the most cosmopolitan city in the world, makes more use of yogurt than any other city in Turkey. The dishes of many nations are represented in every menu, but French influence -- being the strongest -- has given us the most luxurious. All the recipes in this book have been used in my own family or have been collected through the years from Turkish friends, and whilst there are yogurt recipes in most Turkish cookery books this is, I believe, the first book of yogurt recipes ever to appear in the English language. I am indebted to many Turkish cooks and cookery writers for the basis of some of my recipes but it is to Madame Fahriye Nedim that I am most indebted. Her little book Yemek, Tatli ve Pastalar is a very treasured possession in my family. Her ideas are simple and direct, her housewifely wisdom inexhaustible (no yogurt ever fails for her, for she's up to all its tricks) and she recognises the value of primitive methods for primitive foods. For yogurt, dress it up as you may, is a primitive food--one of nature's blessings to mankind.
Publisher's note to the second impression (this book) of Cooking with Yogurt.
Since this book was first published it has become easy to buy simple and efficient yogurt-making equipment, which many people may prefer to home-made equipment.

Commissioner Corner Message Board
Waiver Wire Blocking - Pick up just to drop: Fair or Foul?
Fair or Foul? My opponent this week has an injured QB1 and his QB2 is on bye. One by one, I can add every available quarterback who will start and drop them, effectively blocking my opponent from having any QB that will see the field b/c there is a 3 day waiting period on waivers. This strategy seems like a d!*k move, but I need to win the last three games to get into the playoffs. Is this strategy acceptable to the fantasy community?Sort: Newest | Oldest | Most Replied Expand all replies
Lame move, best advice I can offer you, and a legal and very respectable move. Add the QB with the best matchup, and stats. And keep him on your roster, that way effectively blocking him from having the best available QB... Prob too late now, but that's the way to go about it.
Our league has a 20 move per season limit, so if you did this in my league, while legal, you'd be done for the year.
This move is NOT accpeted by the community, but if it's a private league and there is no rule that says you can't, whether anyone else likes it or not, it's legal. Listen, if it's for money, you need to do anything you can, as long as it is legal, to win. If this is a free league, don't bother, it doesn't matter. People may not like what I say, but you do what you have to do to win.
you don't need us to answer this question. you knew the answer before you asked. it sounds like you've got a conscience, or you'd have just gone ahead with this lame move. my advice: if you get a few cheats who tell you it's o.k., that it's just good strategy...or some crap to that effect, ignore it. do the right thing. who wants to win by taking advantage of a loophole in the rules. if i can't beat someone because i'm more skilled at the game than they are...i'd just as soon lose. what would be the point?
Go ahead and try. Yahoo has put a stop to that kind of #$%$ They go right back to FA and then they Lock your Ar$e for the week. So have at it.
- 1 Reply to John D
Completely Wrong. This is an exact quote from yahoo's rules of fair play and sportsmanship for you to read.
"No owner will make any roster moves (including waiver claims, trade proposals, etc.) whose sole purpose is to hamper the play of other owners."
That's the exact thing you're trying to do, you'd be in violation of the rules.
Its actually completely unacceptable and against yahoo's rules of fair play and sportsmanship. I've also heard it doesn't work, they won't go on waivers if picked up for a short period of time...i could be wrong though i've never tried it.
- 1 Reply to Catherine
Correct, picking up and dropping the same player in a 24 hour period puts them back as FAs. Here are the Yahoo rules on this -
"If your league features a waiver period of one or more days and you see players signed as free agents on the same day they were dropped, it is likely because their previous owner added and dropped them on the same day.
When players are added and dropped on the same day, they will be returned to the player pool as free agents rather than being placed on waivers. Previously, it was possible for a Fantasy owner to "tie up" players other teams may be interested in by adding and dropping them on the same day. This is now prevented by allowing these players to remain free agents.
If an owner adds players and then drops them the following day, the player will be subject to your league's waiver rules.
Note: A manager may add a player twice in the same day. If that manager drops the player a second time, they will be locked from adding that player again until the following day. The player will return to the player pool as a free agent."

The Art of Architectural Photography
Class DescriptionArchitectural Photography is a broad subject, encompassing everything from skyscrapers to shacks, and from the background contextual landscape to interior details. Virtually everywhere we go, some sort of architecture on a daily basis surrounds us. Because of this, it should come as no surprise that architecture is such a popular subject in photography.
Despite its diversity, there are a number of principles and techniques you will learn in this Architectural Photography Workshop that can be applied to most architectural photography situations. Keeping these principles and techniques in mind at all times will encourage you to think more carefully about your framing, composition, and lighting and become a better architectural photographer.
After a morning lecture on architectural photography's history, photo masters, principles and techniques, we'll have lunch and then go into the field and on location to practice them with hands-on instruction with Don Wong, concentrating on exterior images. The following week's morning will begin with review and critique of last week's work. We'll then have lunch and then go into the field and on location once again with hands-on instruction from Don.
You'll see how your eye for architectural photography develops over this two-weekend workshop. You'll leave the workshop with the knowledge and skills to photograph your architectural subjects in a more interesting way, avoiding commonly repeated compositions and injecting more personality into your photographs.

Faith Poems - Poems For Faith
Poems about faith. You can read the best faith poems. Browse through all faith poems.
1.Still I Rise
You may write me down in history
With your bitter, twisted lies,
You may tread me in the very dirt
But still, like dust, I'll rise.
Does my sassiness upset you?
Why are you beset with gloom?
'Cause I walk like I've got oil wells
Pumping in my living room.
Just like moons and like suns,
With the certainty of tides,
Just like hopes springing high,
Still I'll rise.
Did you want to see me broken?
Bowed head and lowered eyes?
Shoulders falling down like teardrops.
Weakened by my soulful cries.
Does my haughtiness offend you?
Don't you take it awful hard
'Cause I laugh like I've got gold mines
Diggin' in my own back yard.
You may shoot me with your words,
You may cut me with your eyes,
You may kill me with your hatefulness,
But still, like air, I'll rise.
Does my sexiness upset you?
Does it come as a surprise
That I dance like I've got diamonds
At the meeting of my thighs?
Out of the huts of history's shame
I rise
Up from a past that's rooted in pain
I rise
I'm a black ocean, leaping and wide,
Welling and swelling I bear in the tide.
Leaving behind nights of terror and fear
I rise
Into a daybreak that's wondrously clear
I rise
Bringing the gifts that my ancestors gave,
I am the dream and the hope of the slave.
I rise
I rise
I rise. read more »

Leveling a paladin, wondering if it's even debatable to not use the Beacon glyph, specifically in conjunction with Flash/Divine Light (macro).
In my head, I'm thinking that keeping your Beacon on yourself or a VIP will make swapping less attractive/lucritive to the enemy team. Then again, the extra Holy Power has to be significant if you're spamming, and I guess the comparatively greater numbers of Eternal Flames might be a significant HoT when Beacon goes back on yourself/VIP.
I only looked at two top rated players and I see one rolling with and one rolling without. Thoughts? Thanks for your time.
How mandatory is it to Beacon glyph?

I don't use it against certain comps. I mean if you know they will only train 1 target I rather have denounce glyph.
Otherwise it's pretty mandatory

REVIEW: A very obscure little 8 minute piece bleached in sickly yellow tones that almost certainly gets under you skin with its irritating droning (repeated over and over again).

My wife Marie and myself are from Scotland, we have been holidaying in this area for 20 years and decided last year it was time we had something more permanent. We hope that our guests love the house as we do and use it as a home from home and most of all, enjoy their vacation.
Jim Walker purchased this villa in 2009
The location and friendliness of the people were paramount in our decision to buy here. Try it out, I think you will agree.
Not too far or too near to the parks, it's great to come back after a hectic day and chill out, maybe grab a bite to eat at the many restaurants on the way, or do it your own way. Sit outside, go for a swim, go in the Spa, just relax and enjoy.
Fantastic property and great location
Very easy to find and roughly 35mins from Orlando International airport. We had a sat nav, but the instructions supplied by Jim, were very good. The property offered everything we were looking for in terms of quality and location. Glenbrook is in a good location, far enough away from the main tourist areas and yet a short drive to the theme parks. Jim has a good property management company and Bruce who looks after the property, was very attentive and helpful. There are a number of eating places nearby offering good value for money, e.g. Applebees, Chilis, Santa Fe. There are also, 4 supermarkets to choose from inc Walmart, Publix, Winn Dixie and Sweet Bay. Try Publix for chicken tenders - fantastic, the kids will love them! There are also plenty of garages on US27, to fuel up before you set off. All things considered and given that we have now been to Orlando every year for the last 5 years, Jim's villa is certainly one we would recommend and hopefully will be able to return to sometime soon.
This house was everything we were hoping it to be! it was very clean and in a very quiet neighbor hood. The pool and spa were wonderful on are relaxing days. The house was close to all the theme parks but far enough away from the hustle and bustle of the parks. Jim was very accommodating we were able to check in a day early and check out a day late. We will definitely stay here again if when we come back. Thank you!
we had a wonderful 6 week holiday at this villa. It was well stocked with everything ! It's location between both Walmart and Publix's was a bonus , as we were able to walk or bike to both.We had family visiting throughout most of our holidays from teenagers to a 8 month old. The pool & hot tub was enjoyed by all of us. The subdivision was great to walk around and people we met were very friendly, especially the girls in the clubhouse.The management company were very helpful when needed.
My wife and I just got home a few days ago from a 6 weeks vacation in this Glenbrook Villa. We enjoyed the villa very much. We felt right at home the minute we walked through the door. The house is well cared for, very clean which is most important to my wife and I. It has everything you need for a lengthy stay like the one we had. The kitchen was great, my wife made a couple of great meals during our stay there. The Glenbrook community is very nice and quiet. It is also within minutes to Walmart, Publix, Walgreens, and CVS to name a few. Within 2 miles you can go get onto 192, that has every restaurant you could possibly want to go to. I highly recommend this villa. Jim the owner was great to deal with and made the entire experience a pleasant one.
My family met up in Orlando during the week of Christmas 2013 and had a great time. We found the Glenbrook property to be just what we wanted; clean, spacious and centerally located. Everything went as planned with the only exception being the local traffic conditions. I wouldn't reccommend traveling around Orlando during Christmas week but for any other time of year the villa was an excellent alternative to hotel and/or resort accommidations.
We've spent the last three weeks at Jim's house here in Clermont Fl. The home is just beautiful. It is tastefully decorated and is has all the amenities of home. We've spent a lot of time in the pool and hot tub. The water in the pool at the community centre if very cold so we appreciated the heated pool and hot tub at the house. Jim was very helpful with the payment process by introducing me to PayPal. It is very easy and safe to use. The Glenbrook neighbourhood is very quiet and safe. There was lots of shopping for our wives and the guys golfed several times during our stay at Jim and Marie's villa. We will definitely be back.
We took a fair deal of time looking online at different Florida properties but knew we had found the ideal place as soon as we stumbled upon the details for Jim and Marie's villa. Jim was extremely helpful, answering all our queries without delay and made the whole experience a joy. And, after looking forward to going there for several months, we were not disappointed upon arriving at the villa. It really had everything necessary to make you feel at home, from the modern furnishings and equipment, large comfy beds and right down to the well thought out finishing touches. The whole family loved both the play room (ping pong tournaments most days) and the swimming pool/hot tub. We paid extra for the pool heating, essential in November as the temperature dips a little at night (still in mid-80's during the daytime though).
The villa was spotless, very spacious, and very easy to maintain. After a long day at a theme park it really was a joy to return to the villa. Glenbrook is a small, peaceful, residential neighbourhood - the perfect antidote to the chaos of the parks. The route to the parks (we visited both Universal parks, Wet n' Wild, Sea World and Aquatica - as well as making the one hour trip to Busch Gardens - well worth it) was very simple and generally took around 25 minutes, door to door.
There are a number of eateries within a few minutes drive on the I-27 (Santa Fe Steakhouse particularly warrants a mention) and on the West Irlo Bronson (just 10 minutes away) you'll find every eatery under the sun. Further afield, down south in Lakeland you can find Manny's Chophouse. Make the trip - you'll be glad you did!
The best way of summing up our stay is to say that if we return to Florida on holiday, we will DEFINITELY stay at Jim and Marie's villa.

shriveled dahlia tubers
Stored dahlias according to instructions in a cardboard box, each one seperated from the other with newspaper and in shavings. Stored in my garage in a cupboard. Just took them out for a look and all of them shriveled up, No odors. Help!!! I am new to this gardening thing and I am so upset that I may of ruined these.
Call the lifeguard, PD! Depending on local humidity and storage medium, you really need to check those tubers several times through the winter and add moisture or air out as needed. I have a few that are shriveled to a degree, but I don't worry about it- if they want to live, they'll grow. I never really found that soaking shriveled tubers did much good: once they lose their interior moisture it's hard to get it back unless new roots can take over and form new tubers to support the growth. That's my thinking, anyway.
It really depends on just how far gone they are. I have not become a pro at the art of storing tubers, I had some with minimal care make it through the winter, others not so much. It seems the ones I did the least prep too, ended up doing the best.
I have planted some pretty nasty tubers in the past however and was rewarded with very nice plants....
I didn't leave them in the pool. There is just water in there now. I thought they might plump up. I don't have the space to pput them in the ground. I havee to know if they will work. Our weather in MA. has been so whacky . 70 degrees for over a week. Things are flowering. I know we will get another bout of cold weather so I am waiting.
Hi pdshop,
It is too early to plant the dahlias directly outside in the ground here in Massachusetts. You could try starting them in a tray with some potting mix, seed starter or peat moss. I have found all work. Then if they sprout, put them in a pot until they are about 10 inches tall, then acclimatize them to outdoors, then you can plant them.
The basic issue is that the tuber has to get fairly warm to start, and the 60 degree recommended soil does not start here in Mass until early June. However, I have found that if I start them inside and plant them outside that they are just fine as long as there is no HARD frost. If it is going to be chilly, you can just put a frost blanket over them.
Much of what I am saying here is heretical, but it seems to work. I have dahlias from late June to November.
Hi nhdahlialover. Please see the message I posted on transplanting dahlias. It has a link to the CG Dahlias tips on growing. If you start them inside, you could transplant now as long as you have a frost blanket just in case. I have some coming in the mail and plan to plant on Monday after the cold weekend.
I think that a lot of the information out there about dahlias is simply folklore.
Pdshop, however, is clearly ahead of me given that some of her dahlias are flowering. A couple of mine are 2-3' tall', but they have not flowered!
hey ceh2101, thanks for the message/link on the post for transplanting dahlias. You are right, it really does not work waiting to 60 degree soil. You are in MA, yes? When do you put your tubers in the ground?
I am always looking for ways to get earlier bloom. I haven't started anything yet to see what will sprout - not alot of room inside to keep the started tubers, although if I can put cutting outside......that could be a thought.
Hi Linda,
I plant the tubers inside, starting in January and will transplant them next week after it stops raining. Just in case, I bought a frost blanket that protects down to 24 degrees, or really gives you 6 degrees of protection. It takes a hard frost to really kill a dahlia, so I think they will be all right as long as temps are above 20 degrees.
They just need the higher temperature inside to break out of their dormancy and get going for a few inches.
I just received this dahlia tuber in the mail and would like to pot it up to give it a head start but how do I plant it? There is no sign of roots or a shoot and I don't know how to position it in the pot. Which way is up? It is about 5 inches long and 1.5 inches wide. These aren't very good pics. but you can get an idea from them. Pics. show each side of tuber. Thank you.
This is my first time posting in this forum. I'll share my shriveled dahlia story, since it might make someone laugh. This was my first experience with holding dahlias over the winter.
I have a thing for the small-flowered dahlias (Pooh, Bishop of Llandaff...) I waited too long to dig my dahlias this past fall (we had extended summer temps and then suddenly got whacked with freezing temps). I was prying these guys out of frozen ground and frozen pots (the pots had to come inside to thaw, they were frozen solid).
I figured they were goners, but I held on to the tubers, just in case. A few weeks ago I took them out and they looked AWFUL. Shriveled and felt soft to me, except for one (my beloved 'Pooh') which had a few eyes. Potted up Pooh and put the rest in the garbage and ordered more tubers, kicking myself for waiting so long to dig.
Yesterday, I was cleaning the potting area in my basement and realized I had never tossed the bag with the dead dahlias. Decided to rummage through--they didn't look quite as shriveled as before and 5 out of 7 had eyes! Dug them out of the trash bag and potted them up. Here's hoping they grow! I think I'd better find a friend to share some of these with...
I planted one dahlia [Bishop of Llandoff] last year that I bought from White Flower Farm. In the fall, I dug it up and put in a paper bag with shredded newspaper and stored in a cold, dark closet on the ground level of my townhouse. When I checked the condition of the dahlia a month or so ago it was all shriveled up and looked mummified. So I pitched it and order a new dahlia from WFF which I planted a week or so ago.
Is it possible to dig up a dahlia in the fall, put in a flower pot, cover with dirt and store the potted bulb that way through the winter in a dark, cold closet? And sprinkle the pot occasionally to keep the soil from totally drying out. Would that work to winter over a dahlia?
I was thinking that my shriveled Dahlias were gonners too.(I'm new to Dahlias,as of last year.)I put them in the ground a couple weeks ago because I figured they probably wouldn't do anything anyway, but to my surprise,3 out of 6 are sending up some nice shoots now...some are a couple inches tall. If it frosts, I'll cover them! I've learned that shriveled Dahlias can snap out of it!
Hurray for the resurrection of shriveled dahlias! They are often tough little buggers. "Pooh" will be back in my garden this year too- so bright and cute.
Jerry D, my thought regarding your question is if you're going to dig a dahlia up, why not just store it in a bag or pot of vermiculite or wood shavings vs soil? Same amount of work, or less, and you'd be using a proven storage media. You can still check moisture levels through the dormant season. Perhaps an experiment of storing some in soil, some in shavings/vermiculite would be interesting to try.

I was basing my statement on what I knew of Japanese viewers, though I won't pretend I know anything more than what I've soaked in frequenting 2ch, and what my Japanese colleagues/friends have hinted to me. And I can honestly say that the anime on this list are hardly "unknown", unless I've been rigorously mislead.
