Jun 18, 2011Its good to see dc going in the same direction as marvel, this movie is what its supposed to be fun..a good popcorn flick worth seeing and worth buying when it comes out..
Jul 3, 2011I may not be a huge Green Lantern comic book fan, but Ryan Reynolds delivered in his role as Hal Jordan. I'm not quite sure why the critics have been bashing this movie, because it's a pretty solid popcorn movie. If you're expecting Citizen Kane from Green Lantern, then you've only got yourself to blame. A solid superhero movie and pure escapism!
Jun 18, 2011
Jun 27, 2011I thought it was much better than what the critics thought, I would recommend it. I thought the special effects were good and tha Ryan Reynolds was excellent in his role. Remember they had to spend time with the background of the story,
Jun 27, 2011My husband & I really enjoyed Green Lantern alot!!! We thought Ryan Reynolds was great and the special effects were very good. We think the critics were way wrong - Green Lantern was so very much better than Thor the bore, Hope they do a sequel wirh more romance between Reynolds & Lively
Jul 4, 2011The movie was really entertaining. Critics got this wrong. Yes, the movie was a little short and a bit rushed. It should have been 15 minutes longer. However, aside from that, the special effects were pretty good and the origin story was pretty close to the comic. I hope they still make a sequel with Sinestro as the villian.
Jun 19, 2011I liked it. Adventure with a side of humour. Ryan Reynolds was great. Clancy Brown is a great voice for Parallax. Peter Sarsgaard is a great villain (Hector Hammond) . I'll probably see it again!

Jun 17, 2011A very good movie for a first run at this particular hero! R.R was the right choice. A good balance of action both in the suit and out. I look forward to number two!
Jun 19, 2011Excellent movie... and 3D made it all the better. It was the best 3D effects I've ever seen. I really hope there will be a sequel. The end of the movie (after the credits) left room for one.

Jun 17, 2011Books often don't translate well to film. A good writer can make it work. The acting in the film is fair, but no actor can transform a bad script into a good film. Those who chose the script should be hit with the bill for failed sales at the box office. Their opinion of the public verges on contempt and therefore the public shows its contempt by ignoring this trite effort at cinema.

Jun 21, 2011Green lantern was a wonderful comic book movie come to life after all these years. it was brilliant & bold to use the cgi effects to give an Epic action sequence, including the costumes. Hectors mutated head was very realistic, and Parallax even more deadlier than the comics. This is an all entertaining movie for everyone.

Jul 22, 2011How there can be such huge fans of Harry Putter and say this movie wasn't great is beyond me. Funny, action pact, awesome special effects, great message that wasn't environmental. Great movie for the whole family. Thank goodness for finally a great comic book movie since Iron Man 1!!

Jul 1, 2011i think some of the criticism was very harsh indeed. Ok it is no masterpiece but it's very entertaining and has decent humour. I think the problem was with the plot and the lack of real enemy. Also the whole idea that ou can create any weapon you like it's too easy and maybe not too interesting on the big screen. Regardless I would like to see a sequel.
Jun 20, 2011
Jun 21, 2011After all the critic reviews I thought the movie would really suck but I found myself thoroughly entertained. The plot is not the strongest ever, but the visuals are amazing and the movie was fun. Go in with a light attitude and you will probably enjoy it.
Jun 27, 2011Wat a pile of crud. And now the studio wants to give us a sequel! the trailer was good, but that was the only thing that was. Honestly wanted y money back.
Jun 17, 2011
Sep 4, 2011I'm a huge fan of green lantern and this movie certainly didn't disappoint me at all. It had great 3-D, ryan reynolds was perfect for the part. The guardian's of the universe looked great and there was some amazing action. It was kinda weird that yellow wasn't a weakness but whatever.

Jul 11, 2011I think this movie deserved more than what it got. I highly enjoyed the story and I would recommend it to my friends to see it. The main reason it didn't get a 10 was that the special effects were not the greatest I have ever seen.
Jul 13, 2011
Jul 31, 2011The Green Lantern is the best movie of all time. great summer flick. All DC superhero fans should know about Hal Jordan and The Green Lantern corps. overall this movie is awesome and will inpress everybody
Aug 1, 2011cool movie, great sound, and awesome on th big screen. any super hero fan wil sure like this movie.,
Sep 11, 2011
Dec 10, 2011A great performance by Ryan Reynolds and it was really fun he played a test pilot who becomes a superhero with will as his main power i think this was a great movie, the greatest superhero movie i have ever seen.
Aug 29, 2012Ok, there are better superhero movies, but "Green Lantern" is still enjoyable (I would give it a 6, but it's been bad reviewed enough). Ryan Reynolds is a good actor, he really looks like the comic-character Hal Jordan and also the rest of the cast has made a good job. Not a masterpiece, but still worth watching it!
It's a helluva comic book, to be sure, but it's a godawful mess of a movie.
Apart from having no particular reason to exist onscreen, especially at these prices, it's not half bad.
Jun 17, 2011The film splinters into three near-discrete storylines that don't play all that well together.

My wife watched this show, he was a real prick in his part. But, maybe that was just good acting. Not a bad choice.
We have all heard the news that The Flash would not only make appearance but get a back door pilot as well. The big news is that the producers have found their Speedster. Glee's Grant Gustin will play The Flash for three episodes of the CW's Arrow.
"Glee's Grant Gustin has landed the key role of The Flash/Barry Allen in The CW's backdoor pilot and potential Flash spinoff, The Hollywood Reporter has learned.
Gustin will play the iconic comic book character and appear in three episodes of The CW's Arrow -- eight, nine and 20 -- the latter of which will serve as the backdoor pilot for a potential spinoff Flash series".
This back door pilot will be an origin story for the character. It will be interesting to see how the show runners handle their "powers" guidelines. The producers have said that their will be a world changing event to back up the story.
"Barry Allen is described a Central City assistant police forensic investigator who arrives in Starling to look into a series of unexplained robberies that may have a connection to a tragedy in his past. A comic book fan boy, Barry is obsessed with the Arrow unaware that working with Oliver and Felicity to solve the crime has brought him right into the dangerous world of the vigilante".
Arrow returns Oct. 9 on The CW.

I watch Glee with the wife and kids. The character he plays is SUPPOSED to be unlikeable so he played that part very well. I hope they do the Flash character justice.
Hmm...I remember an article when Arrow first debuted saying that they weren't going to have any other major heroes, especially ones will powers on the show. I haven't been watching...has there been others as well??? Maybe this is an exception since its a sort of pilot?
well if that's the case and he's playing barry allen they better change his hair color....barry is a BLOND!!!!!
The Flash should be on the big screen, not on the pretty boy channel cw.
I'm optimistic considering it has been a long time since we saw the Flash on TV. I'm watching my old box set from the 90's series, it had so much potential.
Oh he's so dreamy! Squeal!
This is the primary reason in CW casting so I suppose they fulfilled that. I enjoy the Arrow show. It's kind of Dark Knight lite. I also know the intention is to integrate this into the DC movieverse which includes the new Superman and upcoming Batman. So that should answer questions about superpowers showing up.
I will enjoy how this develops as the new season progresses.
I'm wondering if they'll use this guy for the TV show then set up Wally West for JL rather than Barry Allen. JL needs comic relief and this would be a great way to incorporate that into a JL movie.

Great fit in the foot bed and in the ankle. Some with more muscular calves can't quite get the zipper all the way up, but the leather is easy to stretch!

Beautiful Boots
love them!!!!!
Wow, this is what the hype was about?
Surprisingly narrow footbed
The calf was snug, but not in a bad way. It was the foot bed and the way the zipper opened that made these nearly impossible to put on. Once I was in there (with tights- no socks would allow my foot entry), I felt like it was pinching my toe knuckles- a very narrow shoe. Toe box seemed ok. I actually returned these because I felt like I MIGHT have been able to stretch them out, but it was too tight for me to risk not being able to wear my $350 boots.
The thing with the zipper was that when it was all the way down it goes under the buckle strap, so I actually had to take the strap off to even get these on and off. Beautiful boots though.
Helloooo 'Vogs!
After a few years of floating on Denial River fretting about how my prepregnancy red harness boots no longer fit, I finally gave in and said 'I don't want fryes with that.' I tried the Lunas in store last week and it took two of us to get them zipped. Once zipped it took about five minutes before my left foot was going numb. The footbed was perfect. It only took another day of wearing till I could zip them up all at once as opposed to waiting till the leather warmed up a little to finish zipping. The next day I could get them on with tights and the third day with tights and socks. I can wear these all day now. Very comfortable.
I did nothing special to get the calves to break in - no professional stretching at all. I didn't want to risk going to quickly and blowing out the zipper. I just wore them and moved the zipper up a little at at time as the boots warmed up till they were all the way up.
Bonus: this beautiful dusty purple goes with everything. Second bonus: they make me feel tall - like, Kurt Whatshisface in Tombstone tall. I'm all leg in these boots and I feel very sexy in them.
I wear a US9 or EU40 in other brands and wear a 9.5 in all my other vogs and I took a 10 in these. I have an average width.
Luna boot is a knockout
mahalo to Monika
Unbelievable fit!
First pair of Fluevogs, quality issue after 3 wears stitching came apart and requires a repair
Head Turners
There is a little room at the top but they are totally fine with skinny jeans and the leather is so thick and excellent quality that I don't think they will ever sag badly. They hold their own, they are very narrow in the ankle so a bit snug to pull on but not bad.
I get lots of compliments on them especially on the elegant lines of the boots, at first glance they look pretty normal for a buckle boot, but people are always stopped by the excellent design. They are not the usual Voggy craziness but they still stand out.
I highly recommend them if you want a boot that will last a life time.
this morning at brunch, our very sweet waitress said, "oh, my gosh, I love your purple boots!"
" they're new, I love them too," I said.
later, she whisked over to our table to ask me where I got them.
"they're fleuvogs", I said.
"oh," she said, "that explains it."
Wonderful surprise
Sexy, but snug
Quality is not as expected
However, after the 4th wear, the seam along the back started to come undone. I'm sorry, but for the price, this is extremely disappointing. It's not like I can return them at this point. What a downer. Is Fluevog's quality slipping? Certainly their prices are not.
the BEST
anyway, i lovvvve them. i sleep with them on. okay, no i don't, but i would if that weren't uncomfortable and weird. i'm surprised i haven't named them. they are such good quality (i've had them for a year and they're like new), and i get so many compliments on them and unfortunately am arousing jealousy around these parts, but also bringing fame to the name fluevog.
i feel like a million bucks prancing around in these bad boys - they're the perfect mix of casual and shnazzy - they work with a lot of different styles (i have the brown ones).
oh, and if you're a half size, go bigger, not smaller.
Zipper Problems
I didn't think they could get any better
Love this boot!
Gods gift to boot whores
I am in LOVE!!
like coming home!
These boots are made for walkin'
I wear a 9-10 in Fluevog shoes - depending on the design. These boots required a size 10 for complete zipper closure.
Big THANK YOU to Jack in the Chicago store for his expertise. The size 10s are perfect and I know they're just get better with time.
My first fluvie disappointment
A bit of work me lovlies
Perfect Boots!
Finally did it. Yes, this post is long.
And then the inevitable happened with said boots. They sold out and no one will ever sell them on eBay or anywhere else because they were the perfect boot.
Well...I have lusted after this boot for a while and today I threw caution to the wind and said "F it! I will not let this boot slip through my hands."
And they are mine. And I am in love. I mean really in love. This boot is is so frakkin' hot, comfy, well made and classic.
I finally have the new pair of black Fluevogs I will wear for the next 7 to 10 years. A perfect replacement for my old, beloved, re-heeled many a time, dearly departed black Fluevog boots that graced my feet for the past 7 years.
Love Them and so does everyone else
A work of art!
Otherwise, they are so beautiful and I get so many compliments!
Over the moon!
Thanks soooo much to Bryan in the Montreal store for advising me to buy a 9. They are true to size. I was thinking of a 10, after reading some comments, but he convinced me to try to 9, as I own Miracles in 9. The lunas arrived in two days, to rural Ontario, and I put them on in my car outside our local post office!!! That was at noon, and I've now just taken them off, almost 10 hours later. My feet are not sore, felt totally supported, and might I add,,my legs were hugged and supported all day long. Fantastic boot, that's going to take these feet walking around England, Ireland and Germany for two weeks!! Thanks John Fluevog!!!! They are AMAZING!!! The leather is so soft and I love the patina!!!
in love!
Love @ first sight........!
Wonderful boots!
Many thanks to the Toronto store for advice on sizing, and getting these beautiful boots to me so quickly! My love for all things Fluevog continues to grow and grow.
luverly! (but get them stretched a bit)
all that said, i LOVE these. they are molding rapidly to my feet and they make me feel like a million bucks. thanks again Fluevog (and big thanks to Wes at the Gastown store!)
So Custom
As always, the Chicago Store Rocks! Jack and Beckie, we love you
All in the ankles Mr Bond
I now need more skinny pants that will fit between me and the Lunas. Yes, they are worth building a small wardrobe around and are such a classic and wearable boot, I expect to be enjoying for many more lunas.
Great Service, thanks Preet!!
Luna Love?
My Love Affair Continues
LOVE these - need winter care advice.
As for the shoe size, I'd go smaller, and let them stretch. I went a size bigger because my size was just right, and I feel like they started loosening up too much within a week.

- African American Women Writers of the 19th Century: "African American Women Writers of the 19th Century is a digital collection of some 52 published works by 19th-century black women writers. A part of the Digital Schomburg, this collection provides access to the thought, perspectives and creative abilities of black women as captured in books and pamphlets published prior to 1920. A full text database of these 19th and early 20th- century titles, this digital library is key-word-searchable. Each individual title as well as the entire database can be searched to determine what these women had to say about "family", "religion", "slavery" or any other subject of interest to the researcher or casual reader. The Schomburg Center is pleased to make this historic resource available to the public."

- African-American Woman: Online Archival Collections: "On-line archival collections featuring scanned pages and texts of the writings of African-American women.

(Special Collections Library, Duke University)
- American Slave Narratives: An Online Anthology: "From 1936 to 1938, over 2,300 former slaves from across the American South were interviewed by writers and journalists under the aegis of the Works Progress Administration. These former slaves, most born in the last years of the slave regime or during the Civil War, provided first-hand accounts of their experiences on plantations, in cities, and on small farms. Their narratives remain a peerless resource for understanding the lives of America's four million slaves. What makes the WPA narratives so rich is that they capture the very voices of American slavery, revealing the texture of life as it was experienced and remembered. Each narrative taken alone offers a fragmentary, microcosmic representation of slave life. Read together, they offer a sweeping composite view of slavery in North America, allowing us to explore some of the most compelling themes of nineteenth-century slavery, including labor, resistance and flight, family life, relations with masters, and religious belief. This web site provides an opportunity to read a sample of these narratives, and to see some of the photographs taken at the time of the interviews. The entire collection of narratives can be found in George P. Rawick, ed., The American Slave: A Composite Autobiography (Westport, Conn.: Greenwood Press, 1972-79)."
- Documenting the American South: "Documenting the American South (DAS)" is a collection of sources on Southern history, literature and culture from the colonial period through the first decades of the 20th century. It is organized into the projects listed above. The next one, now in the planning stage, will feature North Caroliniana. The Academic Affairs Library at the University of North Carolina at Chapel Hill sponsors DAS, and the texts come primarily from its Southern holdings. An editorial board guides its development.

JillTerribleMy friends and family have used hood hair dryers since forever becuase it gives the best curl to ethic hair. This is the cheapest hair dryer I have ever seen. The flimsy plastic and loud motor is not worth $40.00. The worst part is that the hood is way too small. It seems the company who made this drying never tested it. I have an average head, but I can't use the dryer with rollers in my hair. The hood is too small for my ten year old niece! Don't buy.posted Feb 8, 2010Link to this post
LizFl, UsaOkay For Fine Hair And Quick Dos.I have shoulder lenght hair and very fine, so this product served me well for a quick 30 minute dry and some body. I have only used it twice but it has done the job I wanted it for. Only has two setting low and high but I didin't feel it got too hot for me.posted Jan 17, 2010Link to this post
FNew York, NYThis Is The Worst Hair Dryer I've Ever Used!My old dryer broke (by falling), and I was hoping to find something better. Well, I didn't; not with this! This dryer looks and feels super cheap! It has multiple levels to where you can have dryer dry your hair; but that isn't stable; so I wasn't able to utilize all of my options. :-( The dryer only has 2 heat settings; which the high can only be used because the low is too low. And although I normally don't dry my hair all the way on high, I had to with this dryer since my head fit all the way at the bottom of the dome. No, my head cannot fit half way with a set of rollers. The air only comes from the front of the dryer. Even for deep conditioning I wouldn't recommend this because it still doesn't reach the back of my head!! I wouldn't keep this dryer if it was giving to me for free! It's pure garbage. It shouldn't even be allowed to be on the market; such a waste of time.posted Dec 28, 2009Link to this post
MzkeaWas Expecting Better.This is an OKAY product, I was so happy that I would finally get to do my roller set's at home instead of going to a salon,so I couldn't wait to receive it. It finally came and I am some what dissapointed, it wroks great for deep conditions, but when I do a roller set it takes FOREVER to dry ( it usually takes 45-60 minutes to dry my hair at the salon) I stayed under it for 90 minutes and it still wasn't dry, and when it finally was my curls only lasted for 2 days max, then I was back to rolling my hair AGAIN!! (FYI, I do not put alot of products on my hair when roller setting, only leave in con and setting lotion)I would return it but I deep condition x2 weekly so sending it back and searching for another one is not an option. I will be saving my money to buy a professional one.posted Dec 15, 2009Link to this post
Tam ForeeOn/off Switch Won't Work After 5 Times Using ItI am really lucky that the dryer on off switch won't turn off. I just plug it in and unplug it to make it work but really, why would the on off switch stop working. I can move the switch but nothing happens. I do like the dryer other than that. I really love that it is large enough that I can use large rollers and still fit under the hood.posted Oct 20, 2009Link to this post
RitaRaleigh, NC, USDryer Stop Working After 2 Weeks!!!!I would not recommend someone to buy this dryer. I had a hard time drying the back of my hair, the holes are only at the top of the dryer...so i had to sit in wierd positions to get my hair dry. Not only did I have problems drying my hair it died after two weeks of having it. Thank goodness it died when it did...I sent it back...I want my money back for this piece of junk. I usually don't write reviews but I want you ladies to know the TRUTH.posted Sep 30, 2009Link to this post
StarSCNothing Special...i bought this dryer along with some other products towards the end of may. i just used it for the first time this week(i only bought it to use with the aphogee 2 step treatment).the good thing is its works. the bad is i expected more of it. but again it works. if you can hold a hand dryer do that instead.afr-amer female. 19.posted Jul 30, 2009Link to this post
HeatherPiece Of CrapThis dryer does not get very hot or dry very well. Hardly any air comes through it. The only spots that do get good air flow is the very front. The product does not easily adjust. Not very stable when sitting on a flat surface it still tends to drop forward. Sure it pretty silent compared to most dryers but with long hair you will be sitting under if for hours just to get dry and the back would still be wet. Save your money and get a bonnet instead.posted May 1, 2009Link to this post
WendyLAGreat Deal, Tight For Huge Rollers,works WellI have a friend that purchased one for her heat conditioning treatments and occasional roller use, I tried hers and liked it and purchased one myself. When I use my really big rollers I have to stuff my head into the hood, but it works fine. I have really long hair and find that it still takes about an hour and a quarter to an hour and a half at the highest heat setting to get the hair fully dry. I am still glad to save money by doing my hair at home. I set my hair on rollers about four times a week and also use the dryer for conditioning twice a week on high for maybe 90 minutes. So far i really like the dryer and find it pretty comfy.posted Feb 5, 2009Link to this post

Arizona Cardinals
Updated Dec 8, 2012 - 11:15 am
Arizona Sports predicts Cardinals at Seahawks
It's not exactly the road trip you want to take when you're in the midst of an eight-game losing streak.
Nonetheless, the Arizona Cardinals will travel to Seattle to take on the Seahawks at Century Link Field Sunday.
The Seahawks will try to avenge a season-opening loss to the Cardinals in Week 1 while the Cardinals are simply trying to claw their way back into the win column.
Vince Marotta |
Hmm�Cards on the road in a tough place to play against a superior opponent. This won't go well. Arizona will get a defensive touchdown in this game�but that'll be it.
Final Score: Seahawks 27, Cardinals 7 |
John Gambadoro |
Arizona has been on the verge of imploding for a few weeks and this may be the game where it all boils over. Russell Wilson hasn't thrown an interception in four games and Seattle doesn't lose at home. Skelton is real rusty, not having played much this season. Plus, Seattle will be playing for the division title, so there are a lot of reasons to bring their A-game. Cards just playing for pride and there is not a lot of that left.
Final Score: Seahawks 30, Cardinals 13 |
Adam Green |
Visiting teams don't normally have success in Seattle, and this year's Cardinals will not be the exception. Sure, Skelton is back at quarterback, but he was replaced for a reason. Arizona's defense will be stout once again, but the Cardinals won't have enough offense to make it matter.
Final Score: Seahawks 23, Cardinals 10 |
Joe Huizenga |
Skelton (Not Kolb) is starting�Cardinals will be losing.
Final Score: Seahawks 31, Cardinals 17 |
Dave Burns |
When trying to figure out where the wins are going to come from between now and the end of the season, this might be the longest of the long shots. Teams with good to excellent quarterbacks have lost in the building that features the best homefield advantage in the NFL. The Cards have neither, therefore....
Final Score: Seahawks 17, Cardinals 9 |

The Cardinals quarterback situation has turned into one of those old Mad Libs games, because regardless of what you insert in the box, the result will probably turn out to be something ridiculous. Whether it's John Skelton or Ryan Lindley the rest of the way, it won't really matter. Skelton might represent Ken Whisenhunt's best chance to save his job, but all he is is the lesser of two evils. Skelton played well in the first half of the Cardinals' Week 1 win over Seattle, but the same will not be true Sunday. Even without play-making CB Brandon Browner lurking in the secondary, the Seahawks front seven will handle their business, so don't expect Skelton to put up big numbers. Russell Wilson will do his best to show Arizona what a good mid-level draft pick can do at QB, and the Seahawks will win going away.
Final Score: Seahawks 28, Cardinals 13 |
Carter Nacke |
If the Cardinals couldn't post any points on the Jets, do you really think they will be able to do anything against the Seahawks? Sure, they beat Seattle when they had everyone healthy, but with an unknown quarterback and injuries, the Cards' losing streak will continue.
Final Score: Seahawks 20, Cardinals 6 |
Charlie Feinerman |
I've given up on picking Arizona... The Cardinals are going to lose and the only question is by how much. The Seahawks defense is pretty good, and their offense has been coming together of late. I'll say the Cards keep it close, but still fail to put a notch in the win column.
Final Score: Seahawks 24, Cardinals 13 |
Katy Hartley |
Not only is Seattle unbeaten at home but their pass rush will destroy John Skelton, forcing him to make mistakes which will cost the Cards the game.
Final Score: Seahawks 28, Cardinals 13 |
James Mello |
The Cardinals will see firsthand this week how well drafting and developing a quarterback in the NFL can work for a franchise. Look for a steady dose of Russell Wilson on the play-action roll out with plenty of Marshawn Lynch mixed in for Seattle. John Skelton and the offense will struggle to do much of anything against a Seattle Seahawks team with a tough defense and a home field advantage that ranks among the best in the NFL. The defense will fight like they have all season but there is just too little offensively for the Cardinals to have any chance of beating Seattle at home.
Final Score: Seahawks 24, Cardinals 10 |

I did an earlier post about the popularity of barn sales here, and one of my favorites is Ekster's barn sale in Hamilton Va. They were open this past weekend and I went with a few friends. It was four of us total, so we took 2 vehicles (which is a good thing we did because I needed both to bring back my purchases! Ha!) All of us have recently purchased or are in the process of purchasing new homes, so it was fun to help each other with design ideas.
Ekster Antiques is owned & operated by Caroline Verscoor and Jon-Paul Saunier. You can read all about them & their fabulous barn sales here
Loved this cute cherub fountain! I have a thing for cherubs (or putti), I will do a post on that later!
She always has a great selection of reclaimed wood tables & chairs (sorry for the bad pics, I'm still using my i phone!)
My friend Wendy bought this table…don't you just love the iron base??
So many interesting cabinet choices
Coffee tables, chests, console tables
Loved this Demi lune table! And Zebra hide
An instant collection of coral & shells
A few more of my purchases…I had to have the cute rusty bench!
And sweet Miss Caroline behind the check out desk. Ahhhhh…..so much fun & it was a gorgeous day (we went this past Sat)
If you haven't been to one of her sales, you must go!
The bench went in my basement as you come in from the garage, I still need to hang art or a mirror
The table also went in my basement between two Ikea chairs (notice the cherub on the table) LOL
Any barn sales in your neck of the woods? Id love to hear about them!

I've been a Warriors fan since they traded Chris Webber. Can you imagine how that's like....
Another game that will be a good showing of how good the team is. I really think Barnes should be given alot of court time as he should be able to go off against Atlanta.
migya make the ring fall on ya |
He needs to assert himself. I haven't watched him in college and right now I have no idea what his game is. I watched highlights of him leading up to the draft and all i can remember is his shooting ability but the kid wont do that. His prerogative seems to be getting to the rack because he's always throwing out that pump fake, but what he doesn't know is that unless he knocks down some jumpers no one is going to jump at them. So far I'm not impressed with him. At all. From "we believe", to "we belong", to "we gon beatcho ass!"
He is just not taking many shots. He had more opportunity than Klay or Steph for open shots, yet he passes the ball. Is it him, or Jackson, that is responsible for that, I don't know, but kid is for sure our best talent. We need to develop him as quickly as possible. Also, he is the only one in our team that is taking it to the rim...and he is doing it easily when he decides to finish. Can't figure it out why he isn't more included.
Far from not being impressed. He doesn't have great numbers yet, though, not many minutes as well...but when he does something, you see how good kid is, and how good he can be. He needs some time, and I expect him after a while to be like "**** this, I'm taking over". He needs that mentality, cause he has all of the tools. |
Strange that he is taking it to the basket, as in college it was said that he was a shooter and not much of a penetrator and had not good ability handling the ball. He was known as a shooter above all else and he hasn't tried that much so far. It is his defense and rebounding that I want the most. I think he can really be an effective defender and even moreso as a rebounder.

I agree with you guys, not sure what is going on with barnes. His handles are a bit limited, not asserting himself, and is not really looking for his shot or attacking the rim. With his size he should have some sort of back to the basket game, he has the speed to drive by his man, but his handles are not to par to cross over defenders and blow past them either that or i am still waiting to see. Its still early hopes he breaks through soon.

Yeah, sorry Krome, I doubt Pachulia will be SF. Maybe him C, Horford PF and Smith SF but more than likely it will be Pachulia off the bench, Korver at SF and Stevenson at SG.
Barnes looks good from what I've seen. Perhaps he needs to be a bit more selfish and just shoot when he's open instead looking for teammates every time. |
Winnable game; no Joe Johnson in ATL anymore. Josh Smith is a quirky leaper and Lee tends to do well against those types. Devin Harris, Jeff Teague, and Lou Williams are the quick sort of guards that give Curry and Jack a little trouble, but Klay should have a bounce-back game and Barnes can eat any of these guys NOT named Smoove in one-on-one coverage. By all accounts, Ezeli should match up well with Horford and Landry is much stronger than Smith.
I worry about the fast tempo against this team though; they have the bigs to get out and go. Should be interesting but it'll come down to which team is hitting from the outside/midrange. Strangely, I hope Harris (whose day-to-day) plays. Some guys are Warrior killers, but that dude is a career Warrior loser. Chucks a ton of shots at a low 40-percent. GOLDEN STATE WARRIORS DIE HARD |

Well, Nellie will be in the house, so he might give some props to mark how to run proper pick n roll or proper small ball, or, at least, how to get curry back to his rookie season's balletmaestro form - 25 and 8 and 5. We might not get to see the Black Swan, but Black Falcon dropping down the Hawk would be worth the price of admission:
p.s. i had to do some research here "i wish i was a little bit taller" skee lo
An entire first quarter without giving up an offensive rebound...
What a tremendous relief that is after the rebounding rape that took place against Denver. GOLDEN STATE WARRIORS DIE HARD |

Makes my hair nice and piecy and holds the curl. My former styling product must contain too much water because it weighs and pulls my curls out. My only complaint with this product is the metal tube. If you don't put the cap on right away the product keeps running out. Other than that, I love it!! Wish I'd started using it years ago!!posted Jan 18, 2013Link to this post
FabiolaLong Beach, CaHairMedium BrownOily HairThick or Coarse HairThe Wonder PotionI've only used this polish cream a few times, but I must say I have nothing but great things to say about it, I love this stuff! When you think about molding or polish creams the first things that comes to mind is something greasy, sticky or hard to work with. NOT THIS STUFF! It does feel thick at first contact, but as you warm it in your hand it creates a soft texture, non greasy, with shine. The best part, it smells great and leaves your hair smooth with that extra shine!!! I used it on my friends hair whom has that flat, thin hair. The type of hair that does not hold curls very long. Before applying the Cortex 4 in 1 curling iron (which I also purchased here on Folica) I applied a small pea size amount if not less, to the strand of hair, set the curling iron for about 9 seconds and removed. The curl was just perfect, no frizz curl! Added very little hairspray to set it. My friend loved it! She said she still had curl the next day!!! This is a good buy!!posted May 16, 2011Link to this post

Strasburg, Miller set to square off in St. Louis
Nats' ace stands between Cards and their fifth win in six games
The Nationals entered their series with the Cardinals Friday night as the hottest team in baseball, having won 11 of 13 games and hoping to continue their run of success. And while St. Louis cooled them off a bit with a 1-0 win in the opener, Washington is scheduled to send its ace to the mound in an attempt to right the ship on Saturday.
Saturday's pitching matchup at Busch Stadium will feature two of the top 20 picks in the 2009 First-Year Players Draft, as right-handers Strasburg (No. 1 overall) and Shelby Miller (No. 19 overall) are slated to square off.
Strasburg has allowed only three earned runs in 19 innings pitched (1.42 ERA) over his last three starts -- all wins -- striking out 27 over that span. Meanwhile, Miller twirled a shutout against the Blue Jays in Toronto on Saturday, yielding three hits while walking one and fanning five.
Nationals manager Matt Williams said the key to success for Strasburg has been his command.
"As far as Stephen's concerned, I think his fastball's command has been better," Williams said. "I think he has been able to throw the breaking ball early in the count for strikes."
Strasburg is looking for his first career win over St. Louis, despite a 2.37 ERA in three starts against the Cards.
Before Miller's gem on Saturday, the right-hander had a string of rough outings, going 0-3 with a 7.94 ERA in his three previous starts.
"My fastball location these past two games, I feel like was a lot better," Miller said after the shutout of Toronto. "I just feel like I've thrown more strikes. We went back and looked at what I was doing early in the year last year. I'm trying to repeat my mechanics as much as possible. I'm in a groove where that feels good."
The Cards hope that groove continues on Saturday, as Miller searches for his eighth win of the season.
Nationals: Cedeno back in the 'pen
With the imminent return to the rotation of left-hander Gio Gonzalez, who went on the disabled list with left shoulder inflammation on May 18, the Nationals optioned right-handed starter Blake Treinen to Triple-A Syracuse and recalled left-handed reliever Xavier Cedeno. Treinen had been starting in Gonzalez's place. Cedeno will rejoin Washington's bullpen after making 13 appearances at Syracuse, going 2-0 with a 1.23 ERA in 14 2/3 innings.
Cardinals: Adams activated
First baseman Matt Adams was activated on Friday after missing 13 games because of a strained left calf and went 2-for-3 with a homer. Adams is hitting .330 with 16 doubles, four home runs and 18 RBIs in 53 games this season.
The corresponding roster move for St. Louis was the optioning of Oscar Taveras back to Triple-A Memphis. Taveras, No. 2 on MLB.com's Top 100 Prospects list, hit .189 (7-for-37) in 11 games for the Cardinals.
"The way everybody should think about it is simply that we need Oscar to be playing every day," Cardinals general manager John Mozeliak said. "If we weren't going to be able to get him everyday at-bats here, he's better off doing it in Memphis. I do think that his time up here was valuable, I think he learned a lot. It wouldn't surprise me if at some point he was back here with the club."
Worth Noting
• Cardinals left fielder Matt Holliday is 4-for-6 with a double in his career against Strasburg. Second baseman Mark Ellis has also had success against the hard-throwing right-hander, going 3-for-5 against him.
• With their 1-0 loss to the Cardinals on Friday night, the Nationals are 2-16 all-time at the current Busch Stadium.

A favorite home cure for treating cellulite is using coffee grounds. Normally, raw putting on coffee grounds can have a similar effect as applying creams.
Among the best methods to treat your cellulite is through coffee grounds, which you may basically massage about the affected areas of the epidermis. After every shower, basically scrub your skin layer to eliminate the dead cells onto it then take about a cup of coffee grounds and massage on the areas of the skin and then there is cellulite. When performing the massage, do it in a circular motion and accomplish this every single day after every shower, in just a few days, you will notice a little reduction on your cellulite.
You can perhaps choose coffee grounds or scrubs rubbed on the cellulite prone areas, held under Saran wraps to get beneficial results. After remedy for about 10-a quarter-hour, require a warm shower. Most anti cellulite creams have caffeine as his or her key constituent for the very same reasons. In addition there are body lotions which comprise of essential body massage oils or apple cider that offer results when rubbed on certain areas consistently.
By using caffeinated coffee grounds in the comfort of your house using the following method, it is possible to make your own cellulite treatment.
Even though coffee grounds are often very good at treating cellulite, it can be messy plus it needs persistence before reasonable results can be noticed. However, using creams can be another effective means for cellulite treatment. Simply be careful because there are lots of hype on the internet about anti-cellulite creams that is why you ought to do your own research with regards to a particular cream prior to buying.
The very first method regarding brewing coffee with coffee grounds and after the coffee is brewed, use the grounds for any massage as the grounds are still fresh and warm and placed it around the areas with cellulite, I believe it is cheap and handy but perhaps some time consuming plus you want a great deal of coffee so you can't drink all this or throw it and take merely the coffee grounds, but a pal of mine tried it and it's effective.
For usage inside the shower, massage the coffee grounds to your skin in the affected regions like hips, thighs, upper and buttocks arms for 10 mins. A cellulite reduction massage is made up of mixing a tablespoon of coffee grounds having a body lotion then massaging in the skin for around 25-half an hour. Use a warm and damp towel to take out the remnants.
Caffeine features a positive effect on the suppression of activation of cellulite fat cells in your body. Rub coffee grounds on troubled parts of the skin by leaving to dry out. Return to you would not prematurely fallen from the skin, wrap in plastic bag,or socks and let sit for ten minutes. For best results, do this again a minimum of 2 weeks.
Poor circulation generally is one of the sources of cellulite. A regular massage of your area affected can be quite a big help. This can be accomplished within the shower by using a bath brush while exfoliating your epidermis simultaneously. Another idea is by using a body wrap. Seaweed, coffee grounds, natural aloe-vera or perhaps mud are first spread evenly on the skin then wrapped with plastic wrap. Leave on on an hour and then rinse off within the bathtub while massaging the spot. Wearing pantyhose can also help to lower cellulite simply because they assist to increase circulation.
You need to take a minute and make up a scrub for skin with cellulite from your coffee grounds. Brew flavored drink from grains of black coffee then filter it. Mix a teaspoon of olive oil (it is actually loaded with vitamins and offers a rejuvenating effect) along with a tablespoon of coffee grounds. Scrub is prepared!
Pour some coffee grounds (2 cups) in to a bowl. Next, make your body wet by taking a shower. This really is essential because wet skin allows for greater penetration of your caffeine. After showering, gently rub the affected areas of the body together with the coffee grounds, in a circular motion. Do that for about 5 minutes then use water to clean it off. You may certainly obtain great results after doing this for the month.
You will want one fourth cup of fresh coffee grounds, a tablespoon of Grape seed oil, one fourth cup of yoghurt and 2 tablespoons of honey. The very first thing you need to do is always to warm the grape seed oil and honey over low heat until such time that they blend well with each other. Afterwards, take away the mixture from your heat and add the new coffee grounds and yogurt.
This technique involves the application of coffee grounds which act as a mild exfoliant for your skin due to their coarse nature.
Conclusion with Research
It is crucial to note that coffee grounds are more effective when warm. You are able to warm using microwave. If you make it too hot, you are able to burn the skin so it is good just to ensure that is stays warm.
Use scrub following a shower. Put it to use on the skin, massage all trouble spots with scrub and leave for a couple of minutes. Then rinse with tepid water. Scrub from coffee grounds is likely to make the skin soft and silky improve the circulation of blood.

Thermal R™
From jackets and pants to gloves and sleeping bags, Marmot's Thermal R™ insulation is our ultra-warm synthetic solution for cold weather activities.
What is it?
Thermal R™ is Marmot's proprietary family of polyester insulations specifically engineered to meet various cold weather needs.
How does it work?
The unique combination of multi-channel and hollow fibers is designed to provide maximum warmth while reducing the adverse effects of perspiration, condensation and humidity. The fine multi-channeled fiber transports away moisture while the hollow fibers provide excellent loft with minimum weight.
What are the benefits of this technology?
Thermal R™ insulation is resilient, has excellent warmth to weight, and is highly durable.
EN Tested
Testing Center
Marmot began as a sleeping bag company and we continue to pioneer performance, value and insulation standards in the outdoor industry. All Marmot sleeping bags are EN tested to ensure quality and performance. During the development process, we send all samples to the Thelma Testing Center in Norway. We continually use the Thelma Center to achieve continuity in our results.
What is the EN 13537 test? EN, short for European Norm, is a government test for sleeping bags.
How is the EN test conducted? First let's be clear that it is challenging to test temp ratings because there are so many variables. Every person will sleep differently in the same bag. Choices like clothing, sleeping pad, tent or no tent, eating and drinking before bed can all affect one's sleeping experience. For the EN test, a copper mannequin named Charlie is fitted with 20 sensors and a clothing layer (top, bottom, and socks) that provide a consistent thermal value. The mannequin is placed in the sleeping bag and put onto a wood platform roughly 12mm thick. The board is held above the floor with some support which allows air circulation under the board. The board is covered with a mattress that has a consistent thermal value then placed in a cold room. A mathematical formula is used to measure the data received from the sensors based on human modeling.
Why is there an EN Test hangtag on Marmot bags? Marmot sleeping bags sold in Europe require this testing and hangtag. We include this hangtag on all of our bags, as we believe it is the most reliable and accurate measure of the performance of a sleeping bag currently available.
How does EN testing differ from other methods and is it better? When Marmot first started testing bags, especially when we used Gore-Tex® fabric, our designers would go into meat lockers and sleep over night. Once they were able to sleep through the night they looked at the amount of fill to determine the temp range. Nowadays it is a bit more scientific. The testing method used in the US is very similar to the EN test. They use a copper mannequin, but the clothing, pad, and math formula are different. Again we feel the EN test is the most reliable and accurate measure of the performance of a sleeping bag currently available.
Has the feedback from the EN testing improved the designs of Marmot bags? Yes it has. The vast majority of our bags have tested to our current temp ratings. In some cases, the tests showed our bags were actually warmer than the rating we gave it. In another instance, there was a spot that showed room for improvement which led to more efficient baffle construction. With our baseline testing started in 2004, we can now measure improvement over time through new fabrics, insulation, and construction techniques.
Will the EN test become an industry wide standard? That is unknown. Currently our industry can't agree on how the testing should be done because of all the variables. The European government has stepped in and taken control of standardized testing. For the meantime, Marmot will continue to test with the EN standard.
Marmot rating vs. EN rating? Marmot's assigned temperatures are comparable to the EN lower limit rating. During Marmot's development process we send all samples to the Thelma Testing Center in Norway. Continually using the Thelma Center allows us to achieve continuity in our results.
Wash & Care
Why do we encourage proper care of our clothing and gear?
Because you have invested in (or are thinking about investing in) one of the most technically advanced pieces of apparel or equipment you'll ever own and we want to make sure you have the information you need to protect and care for your purchase. Proper care assures you will optimize the performance of your Marmot product and maximize its service-life.
Sleeping Bag Care
- Hand wash warm, 105 degrees Fahrenheit or 40 degrees Celsius or machine wash Warm, Gentle cycle in a front load washer only.
- If you need to use a detergent, only use powdered form
- Rinse thoroughly
- Do not wring your sleeping bag
- Hang dry or tumble dry on low heat. If tumble drying a down bag, toss a couple of clean tennis balls in the dryer to help re-loft the bag
- After your bag is dry, store in a loose storage container. Cotton or mesh stuff sacks or extra-large pillow cases work well
- Do not store in a space where temperatures could exceed 125 degree Fahrenheit
- Do not bleach
- Do not iron
- Do not dry clean

Bounded by Linden Boulevard, Stanley Avenue, Vermont Street, and Wyona Avenue, this park takes its name from Linden Boulevard. Renamed three times, the thoroughfare was originally called Van Brunt Street in honor of an old and respected family that once lived in the area. The first recorded ancestor of the family was Rutger Joesten Van Brunt (bef. 1653-abt. 1718) who immigrated to the town of New Utrecht, today part of Brooklyn in 1653. Another Rutger Van Brunt (1757-1830) built the old mill on Bull Creek, in about 1770. In 1887, the Brooklyn Common Council changed the name of the street to Vienna Avenue, after the Austrian Capital. The Common Council again changed the name of the street in 1924, designating it Lorraine Street, after the Lorraine region in eastern France. Although it is unclear when the street assumed its present name, Linden Boulevard, the name itself comes from the American linden trees (Tilia americana) that line the boulevard.

Fantastic, but complicated light By Mperl on 3/2/2015
Mperl would recommend this product to a friendHave had it for 3 years and love it, for the most part. We have a 180 gal reef tank. Bought it with the VLink. The fixture looks great, the light it produces looks great, and our corals love it. Our electric bill went way down, house stays cooler, and the chiller rarely comes on. However, it is very complicated to set up, came with no instruction manual(found it online), took many hours of trial and error to get the VLInk to communicate with the fixture(best to be within 3 ft of the fixture), had to buy a used PC laptop(never go the Mac software to work). Overall we love it, but be patient with the set up. -
Goodbye Vertex LED Hello back to Metal Halides By Randyd501 on 8/18/2014
Randyd501 wouldn't recommend this product to a friendI just dumped my Vertex SR 260 for Hamilton Cebu Sun Lighting System -
Im totally fed up with firmware malfunctions on Vertex using the V Stick then having to deal with support to fire fixture back up. Why Vertex never setup a wireless connection to your router is mind boggling for a fixture of this price. I have had 3 major malfunctions past two years doing updates to this fixture from my laptop. After installing a firmware update and another failure had to go this weekend again with no lighting on my 300 gallon tank after spending hours pulling fixture down and doing factory resets. Once again following every step no power to fixture! Anyway I feel after 2 years that LED's do not give you anywhere the color or the growth of corals as MH (have used MH for over 15 year prior). Only advantage with LED is power consumption savings and heat throw off which I do admit is huge. Anyway I'll go back to bigger electric bills and bigger Corals with a tried and proven fixture! Oh did I mention I can now put SPS corals in my tank with MH! Vertex fixture would lose every SPS coral no matter what i did with placement and Charcoal
Great Lights By Chris on 5/28/2014
Chris would recommend this product to a friendI've been using the vertex 260's for over a year now. Got decent growth from corals. Don't waste your time without the RF module as using the software opens a great deal more customization. Doesn't seem to have a huge foliowing in the US so I had to go to ultimate reefs.com to get assistance, but the support guys there are great and offer up profiles for the novice. The only downside is that Vertex hasn't allowed it to be controlled by the Apex like radion lights. -
Awesome light, CRAPPY software By Stephane on 5/27/2014
Stephane would recommend this product to a friendI have mix feelings towards this light. let me explain...
The good:
I had reef brights and was pretty amazed with them. When i got a bigger tank, it was time for me to upgrade my lighting system too. i priced both the reef bright and the vertex. The vertex was way more expensive, however BRS had an amazing sale that brought the price to a close match. so i purchased the vertex. The light itself is amazing and you see quality.The LEDs, the brightness and the color is beyond what i have imagined for a LED system (even my past light). the color of the fish are a lot more vivid and true. as for my corals i do notice a difference (even if it's been only a few weeks) they are more open and growth is noticed already.
The quality of the light is superior. it's also nice looking.
The bad:
The light itself is nice, but to have all the features this light is capable of, you need that wireless link adapter. else you are stuck using the button menu system and itself is limited.
The ugly:
The software to program it is very very very buggy and over complicated. it took me a solid week to program my light like i wanted and have it working! Sometimes only 1 pad would work, or just suddenly turn on full bright for no reason etc. For example, i programed a nice rise and set. I saved it to the light and it worked, got home from work and the light was still dark. I reloaded the software and asked for the 'graph' and the graph (rise/set) was all weirded out. Sometimes the software is slow to respond and probably sends garbage data to the light and this gives off bad data. It was a constant struggle throughout the week, setting -resetting, consulting online forums (as there is no manuals), reseting and adjusting the light.
Now that i have it set, i don't want to touch it in case something happens with the programing
If you are on a mac, forget the mac version. it's still many versions behind and even more bugged than the PC version. I had to seek bootcamp setup or a virtual machine setup to use the PC version.
Sweet ! By Keith on 7/30/2013
Keith would recommend this product to a friendThe fixture is 1 solid piece of alum that is heavy duty. The hanging kit came with mine and is recommended for that killer look. The 5 foot fixture is a challenge to install by yourself ! The software is not very easy to follow and the USB dongle seems to interfere with everything. I bought a 12 foot USB extender cable and mounted velcro to the end of the tank and just snap it on when I want to reprogram the light. The directions at the vertex website get you close. Search RC for additional info. Bottom line is you will love it. -
Great Product By Sam on 3/5/2013
Sam would recommend this product to a friendwow just wow light does everything -
Unpolished By CJ on 2/25/2013
CJ would recommend this product to a friendI have a 2' unit over a 36" tank. I've filled 2 of the 3 expansion slots with the multicolor aux modules. The last expansion slot is centered in the module, and because my tank has a center brace, there's simply no point putting anything in that slot.
* It's bright, well made, and the upgrade modules make it very flexible.
* You can program the unit from a computer, and really customize exactly how you want the light to perform.
* My unit contained no instructions at all. They're available online, but it's a bit of a hurdle finding them (the Vertex website isn't the friendliest or cleanest out there).
* You pretty much need to buy the V-Link dongle to program the device. The dongle is a wireless transmitter that attaches to your computer so that it can talk to the light. It is NOT a wireless adapter for making the light itself network accessible. The manual programming buttons on the light itself are basically useless.
* The unit comes in "off" mode, so it is not immediately functional out of the box. You must, at the very least, select the default "on" programming for it to work. So, if you take it out of the box and plug it in, don't expect it to light right up.
* The programming software is useless on a Mac. You'll need to run the Windows version, which is annoying since it's written in Java (and should therefore be platform agnostic).
* Upon attempting to install my auxiliary modules, I discovered that one of the hex screws securing the blank end-cap was already stripped. I eventually had to drill it out, which is not something I would recommend to someone who's never had to do it before (especially not on a $1k+ light fixture).
Now, it's a very nice light, to be certain. Quite heavy and well made. You definitely need to be certain you have an appropriate mounting solution for it. However, the entire package is very unpolished, which is quite a letdown considering the price tag.
If you're buying this for performance and programmability, beware that it's just not "easy to use." There will be some hurdles, but once you get it set, the light is indeed a solid performer. Time well tell, however, if the tank really loves it or not. -
IMPRESSIVE !!! By JASON on 2/10/2013
JASON would recommend this product to a friendI ordered a 3 foot fixture to use on my 4 foot 120gal reef and it has more than enough light for my reef.
I transitioned from 8 bulbs of T-5 lighting and started with a very low amount of light. Over the past two months, I've slowly ramped up the lights and my corals are looking great.
I'm planning on adding two of the new multicolor modules to make my corals colors pop a bit more.
The fixture quality is very top end. It's a bit on the heavy side, but that's all being used as the heat sink. The software has a setting for the fans to come on if the fixture reaches a certain temperature, but I have yet to hear the fans kick in (as they are extremely quiet).
And I have the fixture installed inside a floating canopy.
Definitely buy the Vertex V-Link to ease the use of programming the light fixture. Should be included!
You absolutely get what you pay for with these fixtures!
No regrets!
Except I ordered too early and missed on the FREE Multicolor Modules when they were taking pre-orders.
Great light.. Have had for 3 months now.. By Shawn on 11/7/2012
Shawn would recommend this product to a friendI'll update the review as I continue to play with this light. My first impressions are that this light is extremely powerful while loaded with options that will take a bit of time to master.
Couple of items before you order (Just my opinion).
1. I wouldn't suggest ordering this light if you don't plan on purchasing the Vertex V-Link wireless controller. I purchased this controller after reading several reviews on other sites. The power this V-Link gives you is realized when you program the expert settings on the light as shown in the video. You can set multiple points to bring the sun up to it highest and brightest point in the sky. You get a fairly easy to use interface that only comes when you purchase the V-Link. I actually played with the side screen when I first hooked up the light and before I set up the V-Link. While the side screen wasn't very difficult to use I must admit it wasn't fun and reminded me of setting up and old HP printer. Once I installed the V-Link I saw the true power of ordering this 59.99 option.
2. The light doesn't come with any legs or hanging wires at all. You'll need to plan your mounting options and order those options with your light. I ordered the mounting bracket available here at the site.
3. If you don't want your fish to experience a Disney laser light show I would suggest configuring all of your settings and testing them before you mount the light. I tested just about every option on the system which annoyed my wife and dogs without giving my fish a heart attack. I don't think you would even order this light if you weren't a tinkerer so this might be something you would figure out on your own.
4. Take advantage of the vertex software site. My light didn't come with any documentation at all. This didn't concern me because I order quite a few OEM products for my computer. I found everything I needed and more on the Vertex site. http://www.vertexaquaristik.com/Products/Lighting/LED/IlluminaSoftwareFirmwareDownloads/tabid/581/language/en-US/Default.aspx
5. I have a 100 gallon tank. Given the power of the light I wouldn't run it at 100%. You can easily change this if you order the V-Link. Refer to point 1 above. Order the V-Link.
6. Update your firmware. Only possible if you order the V-Link. Refer to point 1 above. Order the V-Link.
7. If you just want to use some default settings and don't think you'll ever use the bells and whistles on this light then you don't need to order the V-Link. My opinion is that if you don't plan on unleashing the fun side of this light (Only available when you order the V-Link) then you should save some money and purchase a light that has a fewer bells and whistles. -
SR260 LED LIGHT FIXTURE is INCREDIBLE! By Randy on 10/7/2012
Randy would recommend this product to a friendReplaced my old LED from 2 years ago and purchased the SR260 from BRS. The product is INCREDIBLE and if your a true aquarist you must purchase this fixture for your reef tank. Nothing comes close to this fixture and with add on mods and software it will only get better. Love my clouds and lighting program. My corals after 1 week are already looking amazing
