We've improved Slashdot's video section; now you can view our video interviews, product close-ups and site visits with all the usual Slashdot options to comment, share, etc. No more walled garden! It's a work in progress -- we hope you'll check it out (Learn more about the recent updates).
That way I can block all those important tweets from my barbecue.
when the machines rise against us our fridges and bridges will destroy us all
I'm sorry, nobody can tell me why I need these things. I know what is in my 'frig, I put it there. I don't need my stove connected to the net, nor my washing machine, etc.
You may know it. But the NSA doesn't.
You say they are not interested in the content of your fridge? Well, if they are interested in what you eat in the plane, then why should the not be interested in what you eat at home?
I want my fridge to know what I have so that I literally never have to think about buying food again. It tracks what I use an orders more. Someone drops it off at my door and I put it back in the fridge. I *can* do all of that manually, but there's no benefit to my participation so I'd rather have the free time and brain power to spend on something else. And the fridge can actually do it better than me, because it can look at use rates and determine if an order for more milk is required today or if it could wait until Thursday when I'll also be out of bread.
And that's just one example with one appliance; I could sit here all day and name more. It's fine if you don't want to do those things, but it's ridiculous to pretend that no benefits exists, and that no one else is interested. Your lack of imagination and/or interest does not define society.
And they say newspapers are obsolete...
Put another way, "It's 2013, damnit, how can it be I'm sitting here without toilet paper!"
You are supposed to use the three sea shells.
Just check it before you sit down.
I check every time and I have never been caught wanting paper in my life.

Wont do you any good when your layabout housemate used the last of the bog roll and didn't get any more.
Solution is
1. Keep the spare rolls in the bog.
2. Keep a spare pack of rolls in a cupboard outside the bog.
3. When you run out of rolls in the bog, get the pack of rolls from the cupboard and replace that pack next time you go to the shop.
4. Kick the arse of the useless housemate for the $4 of bog roll he used.
I like to get into a rhythm where I'm either pooping at work, or at a resaurant. I save heaps of money that way.

All puppydogs and unicorns good citizen! good to see you are of teh correct mindset.
in the grand world of modernia, you will get ads on your refrigerator telling you that you really want Heinz Ketchup instead of that Delmonte crap, Please press yes to order the better ketchup experience!
Multiply that by every item in the fridge, and you too will experience the consumers nirvana.
And as na added treat, your insurance carrier will be very interested in your useage of the contents of that device, as
I'm surprised that this is what you think having a net connected fridge will do for you. If you actually go look into all the people proposing smart grids and smart appliances, these connected devices are connected so that the central planners can turn your shit off during "peak" usage periods.

Meanwhile, the fridge calls the store, tells the store you're out of cheetos and cookie dough whilst the store notices that a machine is doing the ordering and jacks up the price of cheetos and cookie dogh. Finally the fridge just hands over your CC details. You get shafted by two automated systems.
However the number 1 reason I wont automate my food shopping is the loss in quality. I wont order fresh food online as you're guaranteed to get the crappiest fruit, veg and meat they have. At the very best it
Perhaps you have more money than me, but I don't want my fridge re-ordering stuff for me at all.
We use an online supermarket to buy our groceries. The app/website has a "you've ordered this before" sort of feature, and also "you might also like", "start with your last basket" etc etc. The trouble is, if I'm ordering (say) deodorant, I'll buy either of the two major brands that my supermarket stocks. I'll buy the one that's on special offer, and if they're both on special, then I'll pick the one that gives m
Let's say your fridge can figure out what you like to eat, how much is in stock, and when and where the stuff is on sale.
"Good morning. There are two english muffins left. Peanut butter is on sale. I have compiled a list of groceries. Please say 'yes' to have them delivered tomorrow morning."
Look a far smarter use of protocols would be a protocol only for use by schools, minors and their teachers and guardians, to create a parallel internet that doesn't communicate at all with the broader internet but is carried on the same hardware. This obviously to get the censor the internet freaks of everyone's back and especially to shut down those autocrats who want to political censor the internet.
So a new secure, registered use only protocol for schools and children and of course those supervising t

It is a very real concern.
I do not want random people attacking Things.
We already have enough problems with "smart homes" where random people are figuring out how to look at cameras (to identify the home for robbery) and unlock doors remotely.
As more devices are added, how many small exploits are people going to find? Will we hear about the occasional house burning down because some skript kiddie ran the equivalent of: for(every toaster, stove, furnace, grill, etc in the world) { start cooking; }
One of the major problems with "smart homes" is that they aren't a commodity and there isn't a standard method of communication or authentication and they aren't subject to wide scrutiny (also that most current versions are not in fact very "smart"). Many of those problems would be worked out if such systems were more common.
Take, for example, early automobiles. They all had different controls in different places. They required different pre-start, start, driving and shutdown procedures. They ran on differe
But as cars became more popular they became standardized, safer, more secure, cheaper, etc. Today cars all have the same major controls, the same security interfaces, etc. There's no reason to think the same process wouldn't apply to "smart" appliance design.
That certainly seemed like a logical extrapolation of trends from about 1984 until 2010. And then we got iPads, Ubuntu Unity, the Office Ribbon and Windows 8. Now established UI conventions are lying in shards on the floor and it's 1983 all over again. Good luck finding anything approaching a new standard for your smart appliances.
(Me, I liked the Home Computer Wars - Commodore 64 for ever! But I was twelve, and back then it was a miracle if you could get cursor keys *and* lower case on the same device.)
I do not want random people attacking Things.
I think it's actually going to be the other way around.
Serious rethinking is what people who think they want smart toasters need to do.
I really don't feel the need to see every device under the sun attached to the internet. And I certainly don't want my car being tracked by smart roads and bridges. It's bad enough that they're already using license plate cameras to track us all.
DRM on home appliances, anyone?
I can just picture it now.
"I'm sorry, Spluggies Brand Bread did not renew their agreement with your Anus 11 Brand Ultratoaster. This toaster does not authorize the toasting of Spluggies Bread."
"Your milk carton has been determined to come from Canada. The Sphincter X73 Megafridge will not permit you to insert it, as there is no cross-licensing agreement with Canada."
I can just see sites dedicated to rooting your shower so you can use European shampoo and conditioner.
"If you want to use this toaster for bagels you will need to pay an additional $4.99 licensing fee"
I can imagine a minor use for this kind of thing: Have appliances disclose operating conditions, such as energy used, detected faults and things like that. Our fridge is already doing some cool stuff locally, without a net; it keeps track of when during the day we open it and when we don't, and goes into a lower-energy mode when we're unlikely to open the door for a long while. Makes a noticeable difference in our power bill.
But in practice, any such system will of course be maker-specific, demand a particu
You really really don't want a smart toaster [youtube.com]
There is benefit to such tracking of vehicles, but done in an anonymous fashion. (Of course, as we know from the Netflix prediction data, you can't just give something random numbers and call it a day.)
Sending simple data to a mile marker (as an example) that says simply "I am an X pound, Y wheeled vehicle" would, I think, be extremely useful in prioritizing which roads get priority in maintenance and when the best time of the day (or night) would be good to do that. Set it up such that a marker sends out
Is this why he's a professor teaching networking and not a network engineer?
Here is a dire warning [slashdot.org] from 13 years ago about the imminent collapse of the Internet due to routing table growth. Lots of speculation in the comments about IPv4 address exhaustion as well. Clinton was actually still in office then.
Our routers do not need biologically inspired routing algorithms. Our routers do not need AI. Route aggregation, IPv6 and faster hardware will suffice.
Check back in 2026 and see if I'm not right.
My 'dumb' router is never going to decide my fridge needs to route through china to send my grocery list to my phone.
Actually, it might. The quick and easy smart device schemes I have seen require that all communication between devices route through an external server. If hosting starts migrating to China and local infrastructure to to short circuit these paths doesn't become pervasive in the mean time, you might very well find that your fridge talks to your phone via China.

the problem is they want intrenet of things when what we need is a intranet of things. i want it all controled by me and talking to only who i want it to not who the manufacturer thinks i should talk to. it should be rootable and open.
We already know that adding complexity to the network only leads to more congestion. Why a renewed push down this path? Because some are determined to make data as expensive as possible.
What we need is dumber networks, at the same time, more flexible networks. the idea that (parts of) the network should be aware of things like the context of a message or network conditions, by drawing loose comparisons from biology is simply a human's attempt to enforce his will upon the physical world. No matte
The fact that your toilet can overflow means it already *has* security vulnerabilities -- you've just accepted them. I don't know why you're assuming the new ones would be worse than the existing ones; if your toilet is capable of overflowing, wouldn't you rather it told you when that happened and tried to turn off the incoming water supply, as opposed to silently flooding your house?
There are certainly *risks* associated with change. But there are also opportunities. Denying the possibility of improvement
if your toilet is capable of overflowing, wouldn't you rather it told you when that happened and tried to turn off the incoming water supply, as opposed to silently flooding your house?
That never happens. An overflowed toilet happens when you are staring at it, and it got clogged. Rarely will a toilet decide to start flowing things out when you are not around......
But its a risk i'd be willing to take if my toilet could provide ratings, statistics or feedback on my 'work' there

Now that you mention it, that would solve the Facebook problem.
Major Internet service providers around the world are now reporting global latencies greater than 120 milliseconds
Did you know that the speed of light carries information at most 300 kilometers per millisecond? so for a latency of 120 milliseconds, the information can travel at most 36,000 kilometers. The Earth is 40,000 km around at the equator making 45 degrees north latitude only 20,000 km around. Between the two is the vast majority of all internet communication. So the fastest we can throw stuff around a circle that is 36,000 km in circumference is the time it takes light to go 36,000 km. Fancy that. Global latenc
Earth is 40,000 km around at the equator making 45 degrees north latitude only 20,000 km around.
Gee, in my reality, the cosine of 45 degrees is roughly 0.7071, making the 45 degrees north latitude circumference closer to 28,300 km.
Offload as much bulk traffic as possible to content-addressible networking. Use packet switching for specific-destination time-sensitive communications, and hash-addressed caches for the 'want this, don't care where from' things like static content. With an IP fallback, in case none of the nodes in range have the requested data.
There. That's just greatly reduced the traffic the internet needs to route, added considerable redundency and greatly enhanced the experience for mobile use by allowing for much more effective caching of static content. Two parallel networks, each doing what they are best at. Packet-switching for low-latency 1-to-1 communications, and CAN for dissemination, static content and publication.
Now I just need to find someone with a few hundred million to invest in new infrastructure to support this thing.
Now I just need to find someone with a few hundred million to invest in new infrastructure to support this thing.
And work around entertainment industry resistance to switch to anything new
That would be an issue. It woul greatly reduce the cost of distributing media. That would be of benefit to the entertainment industry, but it would benefit pirates even more.
How is a "mesh network" (which is typically high latency) going to help latency when local bandwidth is seldom a problem?
This is drivel, makes no sense, and is just a bunch of buzz words thrown together by somebody who has no clue.
"Engineering" means operating in the real world not some academic fantasy land of half-baked ideas littered with buzzwords.
The Internet is not a decentralized network of ad-hoc peers it is a ridgid higherarchical network where the physical path reigns supreme. Even in nature and in brrraaaiiinnns there is higherarchical structure behind all transport of information and material.
The problem with all of the adhoc mesh, self organizing shit is it has all been tried and it mostly sucks, wastes resources and do
Actually mesh routing works quite well, it is basically how the Internet operates. TCP/IP works quite well on mesh because it will automatically figure out the lowest cost and the broken paths. The problem is typically with UDP or higher-layer (usually closed-source) protocols that pretend to re-invent TCP on another layer as well as too many technologies are bolted onto the wrong protocols. There is no reason VoIP-protocols couldn't work on TCP other than bandwidth and a bit more processing on either end o
Why can those with nothing worthwhile to say not just shut up?
I find it telling that Liotta (the author from TFA) is not mentioned in any IEEE RFCs, except in RFC 5345 [ietf.org] to say that he makes claims with no real-world measurements. But that's just appealing to authority.
The most troubling part of his proposal, I think, is the elimination of Postel's Law. [wikipedia.org] The Telco-oriented people have been telling the Internet community people all along that what we need is an intelligent network that provides QoS guarantees. The Internet community rejected that, with the result being an Internet that grows in speed and adapts to countless unforeseen applications. Liotta uses the human autonomic nervous system as metaphor, but the fatal flaw is that the human autonomic system has only one brain. The Internet doesn't work with a single controlling entity.
Likewise, his illustration of the Youtube clip is not entirely accurate. Companies like Google and Netflix are making colocation deals [arstechnica.com] with a bunch of the Internet Service Providers, so that most videos don't have to travel through the backbone, Time Warner Cable aside.
There are problems with the current Internet [bufferbloat.net] and projects to redo the basis of networking, [ieee.org] but Liotta's proposals remind me of those fantasy "cities of the future" fiction that I used to read when I was a kid.
Routers could manage data flows more effectively if they made smarter choices about which packets to discard and which ones to expedite. To do this, they would need to gather much more information about the network than simply the availability of routing links. For instance, if a router knew it was receiving high-quality IPTV packets destined for a satellite phone, it might choose to drop those packets in order to prioritize others that are more likely to reach their destinations.
And if a router knew it was receiving packets destined for a competitor's service, it could slow them down a bit and maybe drop a bunch.
What's the point of making every device a router? It's not going to have the bandwidth or latency of a real router. And I doubt there's that much local traffic to justify a mesh system by default. Maybe it makes sense given the P2P culture out there, but I still wonder how much of the local network will have the content you want?
And it's worth noting that the human b
What is this? The 1980s again. Didn't the failure of 'semantic' OSes and file-systems teach anything? Semantics should be imposed top down by 'applications', NEVER bottom-up.
The worst aspect of modern Computer Science is how applications are discouraged to the point of being BANNED from informing the underlying OS and resource managers exactly what use of resources would be optimal to the application. Instead, the underlying layers- following the same cretinous logic as this article- have to pretend they ar
Trust the system memory-manager, you are told. Trust the OS scheduler. And yet, only the application can truly know how and why it needs to use the memory and CPU processing resources.
PS the PS4 console from Sony, released later this year, allows as much 'to the metal' coding as possible, where the applications (ie., games) DO get to tell the underlying systems exactly how to behave. Top down semantics will allow this hardware to still be competitive in 5+ years time. The 'second guess the user' bottom up pseudo 'AI' semantics that will be controlling memory and thread scheduling on our ordinary computer devices in the same time period will need many times the computer power to even draw equal in performance.
For the PS4, which runs one game at a time and needs to have all the performance possible for that single application I think this is a great idea. For a general computer that is running many applications at once I can see problems. Each program that is installed will want to prioritize itself above everything else. Just look at the myriad of application tray icons that get installed and program updaters that are constantly running. Look at MS Office and how it pre-launches the program in the background so
The author seems to think that every device should also be a router. Sure, that's going to speed things up! So now my phone has to connect to the fridge to get to my car to get to my neighbor's toaster so I can read Slashdot? That seems a lot less efficient to me, than the hub-and-spoke system we have today!
Why would a dedicated router not be better than some generic device that is also a router?
I understand the convenience of home automation and all but I can't help seeing scenes of Maximum Overdrive playout in my head. But instead of aliens it's some little prick kid.
Look at some of the old claims from the JIT camp. Theoretically, the JIT compiler could produce optimized code after examining the runtime in action; certain methods are triggered (via data, or user interaction) more often than others, and so should be optimized even at the cost of other methods which are infrequently executed.
Current solutions to these usage patterns rely on profiling systems both prior to and during execution, and then a manual effort to understand and adapt the system - and I'm guessin
It's hard to think of you as the end result of millions of years of evolution.

Everyone'sPond Pictures retry....ignore first post
There has got to be an easier way to do this as first try didn't do link.I'd still like to know how to do individual pictures!
Here is a link that might be useful: Pond August 2010 pictures
I like it. I'm jealous. I would love to have some of those rocks. Three years ago I was being escorted through a proposed nature trail and I saw a lovely rock nestled in the exposed roots of a tulip tree. I was surprised and mentioned it to the property owner. He got red-faced and explained it was the only rock on the property and it had been put there 50 years previously by his mother who had grown up in New England. He hadn't moved it because she had liked it so much but he would remove it before they opened the trail. LOL?:(
Hi Jalal,
Posting is really quite easy.....
You are already using photobucket.
On the picture from photobucket that you want, go the to HTML Code line "Then back to your message box here and paste it in...looks like this....
and then when you hit preview it will come up like this.....
Beautiful! That's what I wanted to see. Love the nighttime lights, waterfall and hyacinth. Tried posting an individual picture again but it keeps asking me for a URL and a Link so I can't figure out what I'm supposed to do. If anyone else can please feel free. Keep the pictures coming. Patti
Gorgeous ponds everyone!
Don't put anything in the "Optional Link URL:" box or the "Name of the Link:" box under your message. Like Flora said just copy and paste the HTML code from Photobucket into your message (not in any of the boxes below the message). In your message you will see the picture as the actual HTML code. Once you hit "Preview Message" your message will appear and so will your pics. Then you can hit the submit message button. Try it again and let us know how it works. I want to see more pics of your pond and landscaping. It looks so peaceful and is very beautiful.
Here is my new pond,,the fish are still small,hard to see them. But as they grow I want to make it much deeper...
everyone's ponds are gorgeous.
I haven't been able to take a lot of pic's this summer.
But I did take a lot of videos.
here's one
oops ... I meant to make it a link...sorry
Here is a link that might be useful: pond video
Here you go:
Unfortunately the weeds have taken over my floating planter islands and waterfall. I kind of like them though. They provide shade for the koi and I don't fret if the fish nibble on them.
My sweet potato vine in my flower boxes took over my bridge. Can you find it.
My settlement pond.
Thanks Jenny for the instructions. Your pond like all others here is gorgeous. Water looks so clear! I'm sure the watercress helps. I'm going to try posting again as I'm not patient with going to links.
So here's a picture of my pond as of yesterday:
And one of my beautiful daughter posing for the fish
The south end of the pond where the filters and pump under the deck
And because you asked some of the other landscaping in my yard
And finally my pond last year in July before things really took off and my weeping blue artic willow was alive
Wow, wow and double wow! Your landscaping is awesome. Sorry your willow didn't make it. Your pond looks like nature put it there. I just love it.
I am having a devil of a time with string algae this year in my top and settlement pond. I pull it out with my algae witch when I get home in the evening and by morning its back. This morning my waterfall wasn't working again, so I'm going to have to go home and do a major clean out again. I'm hoping the cool weather will stop it in it's tracks........lol.......like anything will stop algae.
I echo the sentiment, Jalal- the landscaping overall is great, but the pond literally looks like a natural feature, which is the highest compliment that I think can be paid to any pond. Really nice work.
Jenny, I'm in Texas, where the coolest water temp in the last several weeks has been 85; I almost wish I had string algae problems...
Thanks everyone. I can't believe how clear the ponds look! And all are gorgeous. Beeliz I think you may have hit the thumnail action on your photos. In photobucket it's the buttom tab under the picture. The first one brings up the full size picture--thanks to Jenny's advice.
Duddly...you like the pond or the girl? I'm very proud of the girl but she has a boyfriend. My yard has been a 12 year project changing the pond three times. Hauling lots of rock from local farmer's fields and driving my sons crazy by having them move the big ones by the waterfall three times. The yard is kinda crazy right now as is the end of the season and everything has grown so much with all the rain. I think the pond looked nicer last year (the last picture) when it wasn't so overgrown but I did win the local best landscaped yard last year for our community. Most people here don't do much with their back yards.
Jenny I've had lots of success with koiclay both for suspended algae and the string algae. The string algae is supposed to be a sign that the pond is balanced. I get it along the waterfall bed too from all the nutrients and just pull it off or springle koiclay on it and it falls off.
Gotta go do the working thing. Have a happy day. Patti
WOW EVERYBODY!! Beautiful!
beeliz - don't ever be embarassed here. My little ponds may be small, and I ALWAYS suffer from pond envy, but what I have created gives me great pleasure. Just a 300 gallon stock tank and a 175 gallon lined pond but I love 'em ... and so do all the neighbors that show up every night to sit and chat over a glass of wine :)

TripAdvisor Reviews Casa Sorrentina Sorrento
Travel Blogs from Sorrento
Today we explored Sorrento, the town we are staying in. We used a Rick Steves guide book to follow his suggested walking tour and felt like we got a great overall introduction to the city. Funny he said that southern Italian men believe that Jesus was a southern Italian because their mothers think they're God, they think their mothers are virgins, and they live at home until they're 30. Lol! Sorrento air smells like ...
Ruins and boating
... further excavation. It was a hot day so it was tiring walking around and we unfortunately didn't get a chance to see everything. One thing that did impress us were the cobble stone streets with the deep wheel ruts and large stepping stones for pedestrian crossings. Liam liked seeing the dead people! Through the audio tour, you did get a sense of how it may have been living there.
Saturday was our day boating around Capri. The ...
To the harbour
... the area from Pirate attacks. We walked past this off to the other side of the cliffs, along what they call the "romantic walk". We did see spectacular views along the ocean and it's truly amazing but....the sunbathing people...less spectacular. On our return we sat played some Dominion and had dinner (the best in house so far...chicken wrapped in pancetta with pasta, garden salad and bread dipped in balsamic and olive ...
A Day in Sorrento
... places. I finally got a look at the famous Sorrento coast line and was suitably impressed. The tour was a bit cheesy but it was a good way to orientate ourselves.After the tour we walked down to the Marina Grande which in summer is a mecca for tourists, yachts and cruisers but today it was filled with fishing boats. We had a mediocre lunch at the trattoria by the sea but we couldn't fault the setting; sun glinting off the waters of the Gulf of Naples, beautiful. ...
Sorrento, Capri, Positano, Pompeii & Mt. Vesuvius
... freezing, but what a rush!
At night, we had dinner at the hotel again and afterwards went with our tour group to a pub called the English Inn. In the morning, we headed to Pompeii where we took a tour of the ruins. Then, we hiked Mt. Vesuvius to see the peak and crater of the volcano that wiped the city out. After our hike, we headed back to Florence one last time to study for our finals and pack up for our return home.

Balusters won't fit in angled stair railing.
I am replacing about 5 foot of railing on my front prorch steps using a Severe Weather Deluxe Rail kit and balusters from Lowe's.
The balusters only fit in the holes in the rails if the two rails are parallel. When I mount the rails on the stairs they are at an angle and the balusters, which remain perpindicular to the ground won't fit in the holes.
Here's a few pictures: (http://www.anykey.net/porch/one.jpg, http://www.anykey.net/porch/two.jpg, http://www.anykey.net/porch/three.jpg)
I've tried enlarging the hole but that is sloppy. It seems that there is something obvious that I'm missing.
I'm not a handyman and except for hanging pictures this is my first go at it. Sure would appreciate any advice anybody has to offer.
Dave B.
daveb 2008,
I'm sure you know that most prefarbicated rail kits are available two ways. One for a straight run and the other for steps. They are different.
Are you sure you have the right kit? Does it say step kit?
Check it out.
The PorchGuy
Here is a link that might be useful: My Album
I agree with the others that the holes should be larger; however, I speak from experience on some Severe Weather railing purchased from Lowe's that my "stair" kits were not. As I had special ordered them and the packaging had been rained on, etc, I used a "-b-a-s-t-a-r-d" mill file (Gardenweb apparently doesn't like the word) to enlarge the rectangular hole, actually mostly just to modify the angle of the downslope side of the "hole". The balusters fit snugly, but they look great after 2 years. These railings were pricey, but they look just as good as the day they were installed with no maintenance and are a nice contrast to the ipe on my front porch. Good Luck with your project.
I installed flat rail on my porch and when i was done my wife noticed a crack in one of the baluster hole
and i want to remove it and replace it could someone tell me how remove the section of handrail how do you release those tabs and take the section out
I'm wondering if you ever found a solution to your severe weather stair railing issue? I'm running into the exact same problem and the frustration levels are at an all-time high! Any advice/suggestions you can provide would be greatly appreciated!

Personally Connolly as our second center is significantly better than Adam, Hecht or Byron at 2C for me.
As for Richards if Pegula were willing to spend the dough he'd instantly make the team a power in the East.
Another interesting question. Does Regier's history really tell us anything about his future if he remains the Sabre's GM? He has always been hamstrung by spending caps, would he operate differently with a larger budget?
I think it's about time we give up on Connolly, even if he is the "best" option on paper.

Front office team is excellent and very helpful. F&B manager Amitava, Chef and their team is always ready to help you. They serve a nice breakfast with lot of live counters. We had our anniversary dinner in Speciality restaurant and trust me the food and service was fantastic. They have a nice pool and SPA. Their Taj facing rooms are just fantastic. Full view of Taj.

Author has written 3 stories for Resident Evil.
Greetings, folks! I merely write for the shear joy of it, but it makes me ever more happy to see that others are enjoying my work. Even though I have greatly improved in the last year, I still consider myself to be an amateur in the writing world. I will always strive to produce my work to the best of my ability and continue to learn from my flaws.
It's been awhile since I've updated. I thank everyone who has favorited, reviewed or just clicked on the stories to check them out. Unfortunately I've been stricken with Writer's Block for so long that it has taken my inspiration away. Perhaps in the future I'll post something as I really would like to start this story from scratch. However as of now I probably won't be updating in the foreseeable future. We'll see how things go though.

His healthy co-star Linda Gray suggested he revamp his diet as he struggled with chemotherapy and radiation treatment, and now he can't thank her enough for totally turning his life around.
He explains, "I was getting fed through a feeding tube and the best way to get something through that little tube is having vegetation - and I feel better for it now. I'm more agile... I'm doing pretty well. I like it (vegan diet) and I'm thriving on it."
And Gray is thrilled her pal listened to her, joking that she stood on his chest and said, "Shut up! You're gonna eat this food."

Hitler and Wagner
• Hitler wrote in his first volume of his book Mein Kampf: "At the age of twelve, I saw ... the first opera of my life, Lohengrin. In one instant I was addicted. My youthful enthusiasm for the Bayreuth Master knew no bounds."
• Aged 16, Hitler quit school and spent the next three years being idle. He is said to have spent a tidy proportion of his pocket money on going to the opera. He became passionate about Wagner.
• Wagner's anti-Semitic and fervently nationalistic writings are thought to have had a quasi-religious effect on Hitler. His theories of racial purity were partly drawn from Wagner. According to Wagner: "The Volk has always been the essence of all the individuals who constituted a commonality. In the beginning, it was the family and the races; then the races united through linguistic equality as a nation."
• On January 13, 1933 the newly-elected National Socialist Party celebrated the fiftieth anniversary of Richard Wagner's death by staging a grandiose memorial ceremony in Leipzig, the composer's birthplace. Adolf Hitler invited Siegfried Wagner's widow, the English-born Winifred, and her son Wieland to be guests of honor at this event....

What's up with all the lawn weeds this spring???
We've been here for over 5 years now, and by staying vigilant and hand digging (I hate to use chemicals) every weed I saw for the first three years, I got my yard almost completely weed free for the past two years.
This spring though, it seems every weed known to the mid-south has invaded my yard over the winter.. and in looking around on my daily travels it seems I'm not the only one so afflicted!
I'm so overwhelmed I broke down and sprayed everything with weed-b-gone max several times over few weeks, and then had to go back and hit all the truly stubborn weeds with round-up. So now, I have a bunch of large, cooked, brown bare spots all over my yard. It's quite frustrating to see all my hard work was for nothing. As much as I hate to admit it, I'm ALMOST ready to call ch&m-l@wn ... Or just napalm the whole damned lawn with round-up _-GRRRRRrrrr-_
The weeds and the mowing ... and lawns in general... drive me up the wall.
There is almost no upside to the whole deal:
1. Demands on water in periods of drought.
2. the heavily polluting lawn equipment... and all the stuff that goes into maintaining the stuff.
3. the toxins and problems with fertilizer and weed killers.
3. the noise pollution of lawn equipment... what a racket!
4. Mowing itself is a serious labor....just to be repeated in a week.
5. Then, with all of that, it's a matter of "what the heck am I'm doing all of this for???"
I'm considering just planting most of my yard with desirable and manageable trees. Then, if I must, even allowing English Ivy to take over the lawn duties. Having walking paths cut through the ivy. The ivy is already in most of my wooded area, and it's very little problem... very rarely, I go out and trim it back to the ground around the tree trunks. That kind of work is easy and gives me an excuse to stroll around the area.
Cotoneaster and other shade tolerant ground covers would work as well.
It seems to me, that one could easily have a green "lawn" that requires very little if any lawn equipment, fertilizers, weed killers, and watering!
Even with the price of the trees and ground covers, I get the feeling that the whole deal will end up being much cheaper than lawn maintenance.
Not looking forward to this season's lawn obligations!
We are having the same problem. I'm in Tipton county and we have about 1/2 and acre. Hubby tries to keep the lawn weed free as possible and he has no problem spraying. Last year was a lush green lawn......this year are dandelions and other not so colorful weeds. It has been the worst I've seen in years.
By the way, Howdy Neighbor!!
My mower is completely pollution free....
I use a traditional style, human powered, reel mower.
It takes less effort to push than a power mower, leaves a better cut (no brown tips the next few days) and it only consumes uses 500ml of beer to cut 1/4 of an acre. (Ok, the person pushing it consumes the beer.)
Here is a link that might be useful: Lee Valley Reel Mowers
Nice. But I mow 3.25 acres.
I don't worry much about weeds though. I just let them hold the soil down until the grass takes over. A good lawn is a war of attrition. We've been here just about 3.5 years.
No fertilizing or pesticides with this much area. That would get expensive quick. Luckily most of this had been pasture for a long time. And yes, the weeds and especially dandilions seem to be much more agressive this year.
yeah they have been bad this year. This will be the third summer I have lived in my house. It is a newer subdivision and the whole think has only been their about 5 years. They didn't leave the ground out and used cheap sod, and since it was just shortly ago wooded area, the weeds seem to come in thick. The first year I spend 4 hours in the front and back digging up weeds roots in the front and back yard. Didn't really have a probbaly the rest of the summer. Last year a few weeks came back but spent about a hour of so getting them and then it wasn't a problem. This year is as horrible as the first year was. Ugg!! I spent for ever out their gutting the yard of weeds and guess what, 3 weeks later their seems to be just as much out there as there was before
just keep in mind that once these "winter weeds" finally die out in the next month or so they're going to leave huge barren patches of exposed soil that will be a haven for various forms of poa annua (annual bluegrass) and various types of crab-grass, quack grass and goose grasses. :sigh:

Can you paint a brass finish?
I am in the process of redecorating my livingroom. I have 3 table lamps that are a brass finish. I like the lines of them, but the color no longer goes with the room. I have gone with a more modern style and want to use a nickel finish. Can I just spray paint them? Has anyone done this successfully?
I have an old brass floor lamp that was in bad shape so I painted it with brass-colored spray paint. It looks good but the finish isn't as smooth/glossy as the original. I think that spraying it with a clear top-coat would correct that.
I think when painting a smooth surface its best to use a good primer like kilz that is special for helping paint to stick. There is another primer which is similar but I forget the name. someone at the paint store can advise you. Both stink to high heaven so be sure to have ventilation. Both come in spray or liquid.
I have painted both metal and ceramic lamps with no problem but I used one of these primers.
If you want shiny, I think partymusic is right and you may need to put some glossy urethane as a final coat.
Good luck and post a pic when you ar done.
Kilz is for drywall. Definitely not metal.
I have to look into it, but there is a primer called STIX that is an adheasive primer. On the label it lists metal. I've used it to paint melamine with fantastic results.
I'm going to do some book cases that are particle board with that fake wood coating on them. They're sturdy, having held law books at a law firm, so I want to rebuild them into something else.
After this post, I'm going to use the primer to start painting some of the brass lamps I don't like! :)
Thanks for asking the question.
But don't waste your time with Kilz on metal. Use the proper product for the material for the best result.
As a crafter, I have learned that you can paint most items if you wash off the dirt/grim then wipe it with cotton soaked with alcohol. Alcohol will remove the last traces of oil from your fingers. Spray it with a matte sealer, then paint it as you want. After it has dried about 24 hours I then spray it with a gloss or matte clear.
I have even used this method with glazed ceramics and it turned out lovely.

I've also got severe scoliosis, we found out about it when it was already severe (my mom noticed a bump when I'd bend down, but never thought of it until it was a little too much. Last time we checked, I think my scoliosis was at 70 degrees, it might be even worse now).
The doctor we went to go see shoved "surgery" down my throat, and my mom believes in natural healing and is always trying to get me to do stretches and all that thinking that's the only reason why I still have scoliosis. For now my scoliosis is fine, and I do feel pain but it's mostly when I'm standing for long periods of time or in an uncomfortable position. Lately I also can't sleep on my sides anymore without waking up in some pain.
Anyways, I wanted to ask you how old are you and what made you finally decide to go for the surgery. Was it simply due to pressure or were you actually starting to feel pains so severe that you felt you needed it?
[–]FrankeNeko[S] 5 points6 points7 points 2 years ago (0 children)
I'm 25, it's something that would have had to be done at some point, but I mainly got it done cause it was my last year on my fathers insurance.
The pain has always been something I have been able to deal with, but looking forward not having to deal with it anymore.

"I am convinced if we drag this out to the summer, it's going to make it that much harder to beat Obama in the fall," Ryan said.
Democrats are already taking the opportunity to attack both Ryan and Romney in light of the endorsement.

Fun in the sand
Hampton Beach loves this little mermaid
It was a pastime she later shared with her young daughter, Geni.
"We'd be at the beach almost everyday," Pareja-Whipple said.
Two years ago, when the mother and daughter moved to the United States with Pareja-Whipple's husband, Steve Whipple, the newly formed family delighted in summer day trips to Hampton Beach, where they once again indulged their imagination in the sand dunes.
During one such trip last summer, Geni, 9, had a special request for her mother.
"I want to be a mermaid," she declared. Pareja-Whipple got to work, burying her daughter's lower body in sand they agreed was much whiter and softer than the sands of their homeland.
"It was just like old times," she said.
Snapping a photograph of the "mermaid" in her natural habitat, the family sent the picture to the Hampton Beach Chamber of Commerce, feeling hopeful but not altogether convinced the photo would appear in an upcoming visitor's guide.
The local organization prints a guide each summer season, with 50,000 guides distributed in the United States and Canada annually.
Each year the chamber hosts a contest to select photographs to be used in the guide, and last weekend, the Windham family learned Geni's photograph would be among those photographs, having earned first place in the contest.
The family was treated to dinner at the Ashworth by the Sea as a prize.
"We'd kind of forgotten about it," Pareja-Whipple said. "Then we went to the mailbox last Saturday."
Geni, a third-grader at Windham Center School, is beyond excited.
"She pretty much feels like a rock star," said Steve Whipple, who was upstairs working in his home office when he heard his wife and stepdaughter begin to scream.
"They were whooping it up like they'd won 'American Idol,'" he said with a laugh. "They're on Facebook showing the photo to relatives who are 9,000 miles away."
