The nascent recovery of new and existing home sales may be losing some steam.
Both new homes sales and pending home sales are based on contract signing – while existing home sales are based on contract (closing) completion. So both pending home sales and pending home sales offer a glimpse of the future.
What is being seen is a cooling of the growth in home sales. The evidence at this point is not strong, and could be argued it might be a transient effect.
First a look at pending home sales (graph below), there was a drop in the index in December 2012.
New home sales also had a drop in the the December Data. Could this drop be a sporatic month of data (one month is not a trend).
These observations change when three month rolling average of data is used to smooth out the data and make trends more noticeable. Here it is obvious new home sales are in a six month down trend, while the down trend in pending home sales is there but not obvious at first glance because of a smaller slope value.
Using 3 month averages, any change in the graph is a trend. Note that the turning points are similar in pending homes and new home sales.
The most likely possibility is changing seasonality. Home sales seemed to have gotten on track in 2012 and become fairly predictable. Maybe the fiscal cliff or bad weather kept buyers away from houses more in 2012 than in previous years.
Maybe a piece of the puzzle lies in the continuing decline of inventory of homes for sale.
This continuing decline in inventory has been puzzling. Without inventory, there are not enough homes for sale. So there is no doubt there are not enough sellers. The question is why.
The average for equity in a home has fallen almost half. This means fewer existing owners can bring enough money for a new mortgage, or if cashing out – fewer have enough money to close after paying expenses. The graph below shows existing home equity divided by 130 million homes. In most cases, a seller would become a buyer of another home but fewer sellers can get in that position. So they sit and wait.
It will be interesting to see how home sales plays out in 2013. However, the dynamics which are in play are slowing improvement in home prices and flat per capita income. Slowly growing mortgage interest rates may also provide a drag – 2013 home sales year-over-year growth may be closer to zero than double digits.
Other Economic News this Week:
The Econintersect economic forecast for February 2012 continues to show weak growth. The underlying dynamics have a whiff of improvement – but the zinger in the data was a supply chain contraction. However all the recession markers have evaporated, and one of our alternate methods to validate our forecast remains recessionary (but still only slightly so). Basically, we are saying that not enough products (crude, intermediate, and finished) were moved for sales or manufacture in February.
ECRI now believes a recession began in July 2012. ECRI first stated in September 2011 a recession was coming. The size and depth is unknown. The ECRI WLI growth index value has been weakly in positive territory for over three months. The index is indicating the economy six month from today will be slightly better than it is today.

Initial unemployment claims fell marginally from 368,000 (reported last week) to 366,000 this week. Historically, claims exceeding 400,000 per week usually occur when employment gains are less than the workforce growth, resulting in an increasing unemployment rate.
The real gauge – the 4 week moving average – fell marginally from 352,000 (reported last week) to 350,500. Because of the noise (week-to-week movements from abnormal events AND the backward revisions to previous weeks releases), the 4-week average remains the reliable gauge.

The 100 smart cities project, which defines the grand ambition of the Narendra Modi government may not fully come to fruition but about 10 projects are likely to start during the tenure of this government. The target is to have 30 cities in 15 years.
The project itself is conceived as a bypass to cut through the morbid mess that cities like Mumbai have become. The finance ministry has earmarked Rs7,000 crore for smart city projects this fiscal.
To ensure that every states gets a share, the ministry will pick up sub cities inside the state capitals to develop into smarter models. Besides state capitals, cities that have a religious pilgrimage circuits including Shirdi, Varanasi, Amritsar, Allahabad and Tirupati will also be given the smarter design. Some of the industrial towns will also be included in the smart city project. While all the states have been lobbying to get a bigger scoop of cities for themselves, the ministry has received a concrete proposal from the West Bengal government to create New Kolkata as a smart project.
Kochi smart city being developed by Smart City Dubai in partnership with the government of Kerala is slated to be the first operational smart city in the country and the Dubai company is likely to develop another smart city in Madhya Pradesh after chief minister Shivraj Singh Chouhan met top officials of the company in Dubai on Friday.
"The smart city model has to be self sustainable with civic infrastructure. The city will also have its own IT network linking every resident of the city," said a senior officer of the urban development ministry. Aspects of energy management, water management, transport and traffic, safety and security and solid waste management will be covered. The smart cities will have its own health care facility with education hub and community service centres.
Not all cities will be new cities. Several old cities will be brought into the smart circuit. In the case of bigger cities like Delhi, Mumbai or Bhopal, sub cities in a radius of 15km will be developed into smart cities.
The ministry of urban development is yet to finalise the design and definition of a smart city, but at level 1, Gujarat's GIFT looks like the ideal Indian smart model. The GIFT city of Gujarat was conceptualised by Narendra Modi during his tenure as chief minister. The greenfield project is being constructed on 500 acres of land between Ahmedabad and Gandhinagar in Gujarat. Divided into three phases, the city will have a global IT hub, a Special Economic Zone and a residential township.
IL&FS has invested close to Rs900 crore so far in GIFT City, according to RK Jha, the CEO & MD of GIFT City. He also said that the remaining Rs600 crore were raised by GIFT through internal accruals and debt.
"We have sold some 10 million sqft space in GIFT City project so far. The funds received are being invested in the project," he said.
"We have plans to develop 62 million sqft of built up area in GIFT City in three phases by 2023. We were targeting 10-12 million sqft in the first phase of the project, which we have already achieved. The second phase of the project will commence in March next year," Ramakant Jha, CEO & MD of GIFT City Limited, the project developer, told dna.
The project aims to create 1 million direct and indirect jobs on completion in 2023. GIFT City Limited is a equal joint venture between Gujarat government and IL&FS. Jha said that they have invested Rs1,500 crore in the project so far.
"The total investment will be to the tune of Rs50,000 crore, which includes Rs10,000 crore in infrastructure development and Rs30,000 crore in construction of buildings," he said.
On completion, GIFT City will be home to 120 buildings, which will be 70 metre to 250 metre tall. The project will be spread over 886 acre land."We also propose to have one building, which will be 400 metre high, but that will be in the third and final phase. Earlier, central financial institutions were not keen to take up space in GIFT City for political reasons. Now, that will not be the case," he said.

Unfortunately' PureFormulas is not allowed to sell/ship this brand to international destinations.
Pure Encapsulations' Magnesium Vegetable Capsules provide an effective and powerful form of—what else—magnesium' a vital mineral. Since many people suffer from sensitivity to magnesium citrate or oxide supplements' Pure Encapsulations has designed a magnesium supplement that utilizes the glycinate form to give you maximum assistance without negative side effects. In addition' magnesium glycinate has the additional advantage of being less likely to trigger an uncomfortable' inconvenient laxative effect.
Magnesium is so important because it can result in better sleep' a decrease in incidents of painful muscle cramps' and a greater overall sense of wellbeing. Positive results such as these are very common' since magnesium is a central participant in over 300 critical processes within your body. Among its very important functions are providing needed support for the peak functioning of the immune system' supporting strong nerve operation' maintaining strong and healthy bones' and promoting optimal cardiovascular health. In direct contrast' a magnesium deficiency may lead to fatigue' headaches' and weakened bones. With the help of an effective nutritional supplement such as Magnesium (Glycinate) Vegetable Capsules by Pure Encapsulations' maintaining sufficient levels of magnesium—and avoiding the health problems caused by a lack of it—doesn't have to be a problem!
Some research has indicated that magnesium glycinate may also help in balancing mood swings' since the mineral is involved in the regulation of neurotransmitter receptor sites within your brain. As a matter of fact' a magnesium deficiency may contribute to anxiety' confusion' poor memory or concentration' irritability' or trouble sleeping. Magnesium in its glycinate form has proven to be helpful for relieving those symptoms by stabilizing the nervous system' while the amino acid glycine effectively produces a soothing effect.
Some also believe that the glycine component of this supplement works to remove mercury from the body' through a process called chelation. Each bottle of Magnesium Glycinate by Pure Encapsulations contains 360 capsules' so you can stock up!
Pure Encapsulations seeks to formulate and manufacture high-quality' hypo-allergenic dietary supplements. Quality control during the formulation and manufacturing process is paramount. All Pure Encapsulations products are made with the most bioavailable ingredients possible.

Can't love without my Magnesium
Magnesium Glycinate by Pure Encapsulations was recommended to me several years ago by my chiropractor/acupuncturist and I have been using it ever since. When I have occasionally run out of it while waiting for my new order to arrive, I notice the difference. I have some gastrointestinal issues, and this helps me with these issues tremendously. I will continue to use this product (I just need to ensure I order my next bottle long before my current one runs out).

Magnesium Glycinate
My physical strength has improved A LOT. I take 2x magnesium along with 1x calcium, because they cause the other to absorb. I also suffered with lower back pain which is GONE.... If I eat wheat it decreases the effectiveness of the magnesium so I see pain trying to return. I say "no" to wheat and "yes" to Magnesium !!
IT WORKS!!!! I am so thankful for Father God's powerful resources on the earth and for the people who formulate it to help our body and soul!!!
I wish it had more mg of magnesium in one capsule.

2008 Lincoln MKZ Problem Reports
Most Reported 2008 Lincoln MKZ Problem Reports
The automatic transmission may develop shifting concerns. On lower mileage vehicles, upgrading the software in the powertrain control module (PCM) and the transmission control module (TCM) may correct the problem. As the mileage increases, internal transmission damage can occur. Repairs could involve replacement of the valve body or a complete transmission rebuild. Whenever major transmission repairs are made, it is important to be sure the PCM and the TCM have the latest software updates to help prevent these issues from reoccurring.
The trunk lid may not latch closed, this is generally caused by the trunk latch sticking in the open position. Our technicians tell us that in most cases the trunk latch assembly will need to be replaced to correct this issue.
The power steering may leak fluid at the pump, hose, or steering gear. This can be caused by one or more hoses not being clamped tightly enough. The repair involves adding new clamps and seals to the power steering hoses at the pump and steering gear.

text: I found Brooker's Natural Meats at the end of December 2012. Ten years prior I was a vegetarian because I couldn't find animal products that were ethically farmed at a price I could afford. My first visit to the country store opened my eyes to ethically purchasing meat. I met Tom Brooks, and he took an hour of his time to inform me about where the animals came from and how they were raised. Being able to support small local farms in Ontario where the animals are raised the way nature intended, without the use of antibiotics and hormones, while supporting an environmentally sustainable farming method, allows me to be the change I want to see in the world. Have you tried Brooker's smoked chops? All in all, Brooker's has completely transformed the way I shop for my food!Chris Eakins (Toronto, Ontario)

Utility Box Exposed As Spy Cabinet In the Netherlands 179
from the all-an-elaborate-dream dept.
Does a spy camera on the side of the road really justify comparisons to 1984??
No, it would have to be in your living room. 1984-esque technology in a public place would consist of a video screen at which you hurl things and scream.
Even in 1985, Dr. Emmett Brown, who was sufficiently advanced to build a time machine out of a DeLorean, had to hire some slacker kid to shoulder his ginormous video camera. If he didn't have the technology to build a self-supporting camera in 1985, it certainly wouldn't have been available in 1984.
So no on both counts.
This "Schilderswijk" where the cabinet was discovered is a notorious low-income suburb.
It's settled, then. Someone pinched the stuff and sold it to make a bit of money on the side. Has the spy agency tried scouring the local pawn shops?
I can see a cell tower. I'm pretty sure that . *(U()*U$Ejhhjjhkljhsdf ws is monito89984ryu5 but I'm not worr*()*43jknlkjdbzzzt.
That's only because the plutonium necessary to power the miniaturized camera required a lot of shielding.
Someone should write some books to address this issue. Title them, 1980,1981,1982,1983...
The solution of this problem is trivial and is left as an exercise for the reader.

After scoring what some conservatives have called a victory for free speech, the cast of Duck Dynasty is apparently taking aim at the right to bear arms, announcing a new line of semiautomatic, high-capacity guns that would blow any mallard out of the water.
The new line will offer nine shotguns, two semiautomatic rifles, and a semiautomatic pistol with features like large-capacity magazines holding at least 25 rounds, military-style designs, and other features similar to an assault rifle. And according to reports, each will come complete with an American flag bandana.
The cast happily shills for the weapons in a new video on the site, with controversial and outspoken patriarch, Phil Robertson, saying "Do you know what makes me happy ladies and gentlemen? To blow a mallard's head smooth off."
PHOTOS: 'Duck Dynasty' Is 'Fake'! 25 Shocking Secrets & Lies Behind
Reps for PETA have already slammed the family's stance on violence towards animals, and now a spokesman for the Coalition to Stop Gun Violence tells RadarOnline.com exclusively it's clear that the promo-happy family would rather make a buck than worry about the implications of their latest venture.
"The Robertson family is clearly all about marketing their 'brand' and making a buck off it," Ladd Everitt, Director of Communications for the Coalition to Stop Gun Violence tells Radar. "I suspect they're getting in the gun business because they think it could be profitable."
What's more, Everitt adds, "this could be an attempt to cash in on their current darling status in far-right-wing circles."

By all indications, they couldn't care less that the company making their guns, Mossberg, has drawn criticism for continuing to base their operations in North Haven, CT, just forty minutes from Newtown, CT, where gunman Adam Lanza massacred scores of children and teachers at Sandy Hook Elementary School in 2012.

I have racquet specs for Mardy Fish (held his racquet today)
Mardy is using a 28 inch racket that weighs in at 13 oz. (366 grams). Grip size is 4 1/2 in. and head size is 95sq. in. String pattern is 18 by 20 with a poly in the mains and babolat gut in the crosses. He uses 6 powerpads. His name is painted on the frame at the 6 o'clock position. The racquet doesn't have the PWS system that Wilson rackets have, but when compared to the stock 300g it was clear that this was a wilson mold.
So basically this is a 6.1 pro staff stretch that was discontinued a few years ago (red and yellow model). Dunlop is making this for him without the PWS on the sides of the frame. Hope that helps solve any mystery surrounding his racket. Tension I'm not sure about, but the strings were pretty tight, and the grip appeared to be custom.
I may actually have a chance to hit with it later and if I do I'll give a full report. The swing weight on this thing must be rediculous though.
Same racquet basically as the old 6.1 classic stretch 28 inch. All Dunlop did was match the weight of the old frame with an extremely similar mold. All that is missing is the PWS system. You can email me at email@example.com if you want the full story.
The string in the mains was Big Banger, and he used one tournagrip on his handle.
So, his is endorsed by Dunlop but uses a Wilson. When are the cosmetics applied? Could he be getting rackets from Wilson, which are later "painted" by Dunlop or others? Just curious because it seems like it would be tough for one manufacturer to duplicate another's racket. Even if they had the original mold, there may be differences.
How did you come to "hold" Mardy's racket?
I want to know also how you'll get to hit with it as well. What was the balance on it?
Actually, the 6.1 stretch (my friend has one) is only 27.5 inches, so this is even bigger. Dunlop probably bought the mold, cut out the pws, and then put their own materials or whatever and Fish has weighted it up. Any idea what poly it was? Polymono? Luxilon?
Maybe its the original 6.1; wasn't that 28"? Not sure about power holes, though.
I have racquet specs for mardy fish
When Safin was signed with Dunlop and was using an obviously pure black Head Prestige, Head sued Dunlop and prevailed so that the result was that Safin went back to Head since he couln't play with anything Dunlop had available.
If this is a Wilson mold, Dunlop must be compensating them for it, or else they have copied it closely enough to please Fish and avoid Copyright problems.
This is not the hyper carbon stretch 27.5 inch, this is the 6.1 stretch that was introduced about 5 years ago and is 28 inches long. I'm not sure on the balance point, but just by picking it up it seemed obvious that lead was applied under the head guard.
The answer to how Dunlop is doing this is simple, Wilson discontinued the frame and once they did this Dunlop purchased the mold from them.
I have a 28 inch Wilson PS 6.1 Stretch, 18x20, in my closet. I bought it back in '99-'00 and played with it for about a year or so.
If you still have access to the racket, why don't you post a picture next to the stretch 6.1 (if you have one) or maybe Bcaz can post a picture of his 6.1. It would be interesting to see the two side by side.
How close is the paint job to the real Dunlop?
Are there any other marks that would distinguish the racket from the real Dunlop?
How do you know it is Mardy's? Is his name on it. Did he give it to you directly? Is this thing new or did he use it?
Must be an easy mould to get, as Wilson, Slazenger, MegaAge, Klipper and Cayman basically produce a racquet that is essentially the Pro Staff 6.1 Classic in various weights,balances,etc.
yea particularly megage. i used to have one and it played almost identical to a prostaff just with more weight....which i really liked actually. hehe.
I would post a picture of the frame, but I don't have a digital camera.
Is this the racket?
(I couldn't get the picture to post, so try this link). It looks like a long Dunlop 300g.
That is definitely the frame. If you look right by the 6 o'clock position of the racket you can see it says something. On one side of the frame are the letters -M FISHE- on the other side I can't remember but it was something different.
Why the incorrect spelling?
was the racquet beam rounded like the classic 6.1?
everything he said was correct. my cousins his coach and i was sent one of his racquets. the tension was 65 i believe and you can tell that they are his racquets because his full name is spelt out on the throat.
brianz0rz: is mardy's frame rounded beam like the classic 6.1? could you perhaps take some pics and post them? would be very interesting. i could take some of my 6.1 stretch for comparison.
2 questions:
1. what are powerpads
2. How do all you guys (well some of you) have all these pros racquets, and some of you even hold their racquets (like in this post)?
We have some insiders on the forum. By this I mean stringers and friends of stringers(FOS's). We also have a few people who claim to know a pro or know a pro's cousin, best friend, etc...Powerpads are little pieces of leather stuck in between the grommet and string where the string loops through to lessen the angle that the string goes back into the next grommet, creating a more solid feel and enhanced durability for natural gut users.
pretty thorough answer, thanks. I thought maybe they were vibration dampeners, but wasn't sure.

Anyways, thank you for mentioning Galactica! (And I'm still going through it, so don't tell me how it ends!)
In TOS the Enterprise was more likely to be hijacked than hacked. Though IIRC correctly, it could be said Norman hacked into the E's system when he hijacked it.

New York's 2013 Best Burger Contest Regional Award winner for Region Four surrounding Utica area was none other than Crazy Otto's Empire Diner's bacon cheeseburger. The New York State Beef Industry Council presented the award on behalf of the New York State Beef Producers Association.
Last year, the diner won the Region Four award for its cheeseburger, making the diner a multi-award winner two years in a row for its diner-style burgers.
"Since we won last year, we decided to enter again, but this time with our bacon cheese burger," said Scott Tranter, owner of Crazy Otto's Empire Diner.
The bacon cheeseburger is made with quality ground beef patty, cheddar cheese, bacon, lettuce, tomato, onion, mayonnaise and, of course, the part that makes the burger, Thousand Island dressing.
As a Region Four award winner, Crazy Otto's Empire Diner could advance to New York's 2013 Best Burger Contest State Finals. The winners will be announced on May 15.
"It's such an honor to be chosen as a best burger award winner especially for a small town like Herkimer in a state as big as New York," said Tranter. "To get singled out twice is an absolute honor and since the New York Beef Council promotes the winners and invites the public to visit, people from all over the state are coming here to try our burgers and once they try it, we hook em'."
At Crazy Otto's Empire Diner, Tranter said, all the food products are fresh and never frozen.
The diner also receives produce daily from Carlo Masi Produce, a local family-operated business in Utica.
"By using fresh lettuce, tomatoes, and onions it really enhances plate presentation and creates an infusion of ingredients together to give a unique flavor," said Tranter.
He said the diner is starting to become well-known for its quality and consistency.
"A lot of restaurants won't cook a burger to the customer's liking because of internal food temperature misconceptions, but customers have the right to have their burger cooked the way they want it. We explain to our customers how we cook the burgers they want to meet temperature cooking requirements," Tranter said.
In two weeks, he said, the diner will be introducing its newest burger called The Loose Caboose, which is a homemade burger patty, topped with jack cheese, shaved prime rib, then cheddar cheese topped with a fried egg all inside a Kaiser roll with mayonnaise and Thousand Island dressing.

Jeff Nourse Announces New Breakthrough Technology to Freeze Away Body Fat
CoolSculpting®, an innovative technology that freezes away unwanted fat, is now available at Pure Laser Med Spa, making it one of the first medical practices in the GTA to offer this breakthrough in non-invasive fat reduction.
Toronto, Mississuaga, Burlington, Woodbridge (PRWEB) December 13, 2012
Jeff Nourse introduces CoolSculpting®. Cleared by the U.S. Food and Drug Administration (FDA), CoolSculpting gently cools unwanted fat cells in the body thereby inducing a natural, controlled elimination of fat cells. Based on science developed by the Wellman Center for Photomedicine at Massachusetts General Hospital in Boston, Mass., in the United States, this breakthrough is based on a vast body of research that demonstrates that fat cells are more susceptible to cold and are selectively, painlessly and permanently destroyed. Starting several weeks after the procedure, cooled fat cells begin a process called "apoptosis" and begin to shrink and disappear. The body proceeds to naturally and gradually eliminate the cooled fat cells, reducing the thickness of the fat layer.
"CoolSculpting is an exciting new approach that is non-invasive and has shown significant results in clinical studies for removing fat without the potential risks and downtime of invasive procedures," said Jeff Nourse. I have found the procedure to be extremely effective, especially on resistant localized areas such as back fat, love handles and the isolated belly fat. CoolSculpting is extremely comfortable and our patients are highly satisfied." "I highly recommend CoolSculpting, especially for people who have stubborn body fat that diet and exercise alone do not seem to help."
Unlike many other methods of fat reduction, CoolSculpting involves no needles, surgery or downtime. During the procedure, a non-invasive applicator delivers precisely controlled cooling to the treatment area thereby specifically targeting fat. Treatments last between one to two hours. Patients can have additional procedures for more pronounced effects if they desire. All good. "You exercise. You eat right. But some stubborn fat bulges are immune to diet and exercise. You don't feel as confident in your own skin as you should," – says Jeff Nourse. On average, each CoolSculpting procedure results in an undeniable reduction of fat in the treated area, and patients can start to see results as soon as three weeks following treatment, with the most dramatic results occurring over a period of two to four months in most patients. "We are proud to announce that we are the first to offer Coolsculpting, the revolutionary body contouring treatment that freezes fat. There are no needles, no special diets, no exercise programs and best of all no downtime", adds Jeff Nourse.

Paras in critical condition; Himani leaves for Bangkok
Himani leaves for Bangkok
KATHMANDU, FEB 22 - The health condition of former crown prince Paras Shah , who suffered a heart attack on Tuesday in Bangkok, is deteriorating, sources said.
Shah's health has worsened futher as compared to Thursday, Nepali Embassy in Thailand said, quoting hospital sources.
Shah was admitted at Samitivej Hospital in Bangkok after he suffered cardiac arrest last Tuesday. Shah had a history of heart disease—he underwent a surgery after suffering a mild attack in September 2007.
Shah had reportedly stopped taking medications prescribed for his heart condition, which led to the attack, sources said.
ACT scan performed on Shah's brain on Thursday had also shown a mild form of infection.
"As per the information provided by the hospital, Shah is in critical condition, we have not received any news as being rumored outside, said Deputy Chief of the Nepali mission in Thailand Dornath Aryal, in a telephonic conversation with ekantipur team.
Meanwhile, Shah's wife Himani Shah took a Thai Airways flight to Bankgok at around 1:50 this afternoon.

Here are a list of blogs, (in no particular order), which I really enjoy.
Nile Rodgers: Nile is someone I know today and work with, though I have been an admirer of his work for decades. As you probably already know, Nile Rodgers co founded one of the best known funk bands of all time, Chic and he's worked with many of the biggest names in music, from Michael Jackson, Mick Jagger and David Bowie to Duran Duran, Sister Sledge and Diana Ross! Now recovering from cancer, Nile is journalling his progress and his story is as inspirational as his music.
Jane C Woods writes the popular Changing People blog. She has appeared in numerous publications, as well as on BBC Radio 4's flagship women's programme, Women's Hour. Jane's passion is helping women to be the best they can be. She is working toward a target of helping one million women to improve their lives. With a global network of specialist trainers, Jane's message is now reaching women on 4 continents. Disclosure: I've had the pleasure of working with Jane on various projects for 8 years.
Danny Brown: If I had a question regarding PR, I would call Danny. Danny Brown has 2 attributes that make his blog a great resource. Firstly, he really knows his subject and shares what he knows very generously. Secondly, he cares passionately about being open and honest. He's also a really nice guy.
Spin Sucks: Gini Dietrich is known to most people, because of her work at Arment Dietrich, using online technology in communication, marketing, and HR. I know Gini as someone who invests a stack of her time trying to help other people, via social media and her work as the primary author of Spin Sucks. Gini is also one of the best exponents of using video within blogs to inform and engage people.
Seth Godin's Blog: I love the way Seth writes. This is not a blog to read if you want tactics or how-to's, but it's a useful source of creative ideas.

text: No recent wiki edits to this page. This miniseries introduces Elsa Bloodstone, a teenage girl who never met her father, the long-lived monster Hunter Bloodstone, but inherits his weapons, wealth, legacy and mystical bloodstone artifact. Accompanied by her late father's Frankenstein-like housekeeper Adam, Elsa learns monster hunting on a steep learning curve, encountering Dracula, The Living Mummy and more. The series is written with a strong humorous bent, and was likely intended as somewhat of a cash-in on the popularity of Buffy the Vampire Slayer at the time. After this miniseries, the character went dormant for 4 years or so until she was dusted off and largely reinvented from scratch as a member of Warren Ellis' Nextwave.

Rooftop decks & walk-on roofs:
This article discusses rooftop deck construction details to avoid building leaks or rooftop deck safety hazards.
We include walk-on roof surfaces, roofing membrane to use below a rooftop deck, and construction of rooftop deck railings and posts.Also see WALK-ON ROOF SURFACES.
Green links show where you are. © Copyright 2015 InspectApedia.com, All Rights Reserved.
Details for Building Rooftop Decks
[Click any image to see a larger, detailed version]
Decks over living spaces can be detailed various ways, but all should have the following elements:
Single-Ply Membranes for Rooftop Decks
Our rooftop deck photo (above left) shows how the installer provided for future cleaning of debris accumulating below the nearly-flat roof deck. But it is the choice of roof membrane and how the deck panels are supported so as to avoid damaging the membrane that make a rooftop deck work ... or not.
Continuing as detailed in Best Practices Guide to Residential Construction:
A variety of roofing membranes have been used successfully under rooftop decks, but EPDM remains the most widely used on residential roofs.
EPDM owes its popularity to its longevity and durability. It is dimensionally stable and strong over a wide temperature range (it will not expand and contract or tug at flashings), is highly UV-resistant, and can stretch without tearing. In most residential jobs, EPDM is fully adhered to the roofing deck with a contact-type adhesive rolled onto both surfaces.
Seams can be avoided on small jobs, since rolls come as wide as 50 feet. If necessary, however, seams are relatively easy to seal, using a special double-sided seam tape and lap caulk at the exposed joint. To seal around corners and penetrations, use flexible uncured EPDM, which will conform to irregular shapes and seals well to the main roofing membrane (see EPDM, page 96).
EPDM roofing membranes typically come in .045- and .060-inch thicknesses and carry at least a 10-year warranty in residential work. If properly installed, however, the .060 material should last for decades. EPDM's chief weakness is its vulnerability to petroleum products, such as oils, grease, and solvents.
If used under a deck, warn the homeowners not to splash oil or grease from cooking or solvent-based wood finishes on the decking.
EPDM is often installed over a base layer of fiberboard or rigid insulation, but most EPDM membranes can bond directly to a sanded wood underlayment such as a 1/4-inch AC plywood. If bonding directly to plywood or oriented-strand board (OSB), check with the roofing manufacturer regarding treatment of joints in the sheathing and the need for a primer.
To allow for some movement at sheathing joints, some manufacturers recommend holding the adhesive back one inch from the joints.
Also see WALK-ON ROOF SURFACES.
Terminations and Flashings for Rooftop Decks
Where the roofing membrane meets the house, run it 10 to 12 inches up the wall under the sheathing wrap. At outside edges, leave a 3- to 6-inch flap, depending on the edge treatment. A large metal drip-edge usually caps the roof along the fascia boards.
Deck Flooring Construction for Rooftop Decks
The decking sits on 2x sleepers, usually laid flat. If you want the decking surface to be level, the sleepers will need to be tapered to compensate for the slope in the roof deck. For a large deck where flat sleepers are too thin to taper, you can use 2x4s or 2x6s set on edge.
To protect the roofing membrane, set the sleepers on strips of EPDM or rooftop walkway matting (available from commercial roofing suppliers). Attach the decking with screws so it can be removed later for inspection or repairs.
The rooftop deck shown in our photo (left) is installed in a restaurant in Mexico City where it must endure very strong sun and intermittent very heavy rain (and an occasional earthquake).
Shading and sun protection are provided by canvas awnings. - DF.
Post and Railing Construction for Rooftop Decks
As with other decks, guardrails must be a minimum of 36 inches high, infill balusters less than 4 inches apart, and the whole assembly strong enough to resist a 200-pound horizontal load (or 20 pounds per linear foot, depending on the local code). Use the longest pieces available for railings.
If the deck is small enough, use a single continuous top railing on each side. Then tie the side railings to the house with steel angle brackets to create a rigid railing assembly.
From a waterproofing standpoint, it is desirable to keep the posts outside of the roofing membrane. This can be achieved by bolting the posts to the rim joists or sub fascia in the roof framing (see Figure 4-17 below).
[Click any image to see a larger, detailed version.]
If this is not practical or if it is unacceptable from a design standpoint, then the EPDM will need to be sealed around each post. This is best left to a professional roofer.
Typically, the roofer will fashion a metal or membrane flashing collar around the base of each post and seal this to the roofing membrane, as with the boots used for plumbing vents.

Rooftop Deck Height, Walkout Decks, Door Clearances
Reader Question:
(June 16, 2014) rich said:
(9 January 2015) Anonymous said:
I have a question about a walk-out roof deck with composite decking and 2x sleepers floating on the membrane roof. For best practice, how much lower should the finished decking elevation be below a door threshold. Is there a IRC code to reference. Thanks for the help!
Rich, I can't say from just the details in your note.
5/4" lumber sleepers + a 2x6 (which is 1 1/2" in thickness) will give you approximately 2 3/4" of overall thickness or height gain over the existing roof surface.
Your design doesn't mention the use of any padding material that is often applied below sleepers to prevent them from damaging the roof surface.
IRC code on height of door sill to rooftop deck surface
Anon I'd pass the question to your local building department who may tell you what applies in your area. Interestingly some codes want an exit porch or walk to be the same level as the indoor floor - worrying about trip hazard. In my opinion that's a terrible design that invites leaks from rain or melting snow if you're in a snow area. Ideal would be a standard step height down - say 7" but less, even a couple of inches, can if properly flashed, at least address the leak risk at this location.
In a follow-up comment I'll paste in some relevant portions of the IRC on Exit doors:

San Diego teens learn D.C. ways, meet Obama
San Diego students at Boys Nation find the art of compromise can be elusive
Nicholas Kelly and Giovanni Moujaes were walking in Washington's corridors of power this past week. They were also following in the footsteps of Bill Clinton, Tom Brokaw and Michael Jordan.
The two San Diego high school students took part in the prestigious and competitive Boys Nation program, which brings together teens from virtually every state who put together a mock federal government and learn how it really works.
Whether or not they become a president, a network news anchor or even a basketball star, Nicholas and Giovanni will always share something with their fellow luminary alums: The first-hand knowledge that governing isn't easy.
They quickly realized it can be difficult to get reach compromises among people from diverse political backgrounds.
It was easy enough for Nicholas, 17, to convince 40 of his male peers to constantly sing pop star Taylor Swift's songs for a week in Sacramento at the state version of the program last month. So he thought getting a few dozen of boys to compromise on real issues wouldn't be a problem.
He found that politics can be a harder sell than pop music.
"I was thinking when it comes to real issues where I had logical arguments, it would be a lot easier," Nicholas, an incoming senior at Patrick Henry High, said in an interview late last week. "But I've had my struggles here. I've learned how polarized politics can be. There's certainly a reason Republicans and Democrats are in a deadlock."
The two boys spent a week acting as senators from their home state along with 96 other boys 49 states at the leadership program that has taught young men about government since 1946.
The boys came from all states but Hawaii, which does not have a Boys State program. During the weeklong Boys Nation conference, they elected leaders, wrote bills and resolutions, debated, met with their states' real senators and representatives on Capitol Hill.
The highlight came Friday afternoon when they met President Barack Obama.
Giovanni said he, Nicholas and the others were waiting in the East Wing of the White House, but he wondered whether the meeting would really happen because the president often gets diverted. He knew it was for real when there was a flurry of action by Secret Service.
"I thought, 'Okay, this is serious. He's coming,'" Giovanni recounted over the telephone late Friday night. "My heart started racing and I thought, 'Wow, I get to meet a guy people rarely meet. I knew this was my moment."
He said Obama appeared and the boys applauded and then he gave them a short speech.
"He told us we are the future of America and he wants to make sure we take that initiative, be it politics or something else. That was cool."
Then Obama added the personal touch as he shook hands with the boys.
"He said, 'Giovanni, keep up the good work.'"
As if that wasn't enough for a memory of a lifetime. "He looked at me," Giovanni said, "and gave me a wink and then gave me what we call a 'bro hug.'"

Nadal eases into US Open third round
More News from Agence France-Presse
NEW YORK – Second seed Rafael Nadal moved comfortably into the US Open third round on Thursday with a 6-2, 6-1, 6-0 win over Brazilian journeyman Rogerio Dutra Silva.
The victory took the second-seeded Spaniard's 2013 record to 55 wins against just three losses and edged him closer to a potential quarter-final clash with old rival Roger Federer.
"I was solid with the serve which is always important," said Nadal, whose hardcourt record this year now stands at 17-0 thanks to his 92-minute triumph on Arthur Ashe Stadium.
"I played better as the match developed. It was great to be back on court in the night session for the first time in two years. It's amazing, it's a great court."
Dutra Silva, the world number 134, had come through qualifying and saved seven match points in his opening round victory over Vasek Pospisil, which was also the 29-year-old Brazilian's first win on the main tour this year.
It was not the sort of form which was going to trouble the world number two.
Nadal, with nine titles under his belt since his return from a seven-month injury lay-off in February, swept to victory courtesy of eight breaks of serve and 30 winners.
The 2010 US Open winner and 12-time Grand Slam champion next faces Croatia's Ivan Dodig, the world number 38, who surprisingly beat him the last time they met on hardcourt in Montreal in 2011.
"Dodig is a tough player. I lost to him the last time in a tough, close match. He has had two good wins here over Fernando Verdasco and Nikolay Davydenko. He's very dangerous," said Nadal.

Charming city.
Copenhagen is absolutely charming. I recommend bringing a raincoat and a sweater because it rained every day while we were there. Absolutely stunning city, though. Lots of history and the city is entirely walkable. You can get pretty much anywhere within 40 minutes walking time.
Insider Tip:Bring good walking shoes and don't bother with public transportation. Get to know the city by walking! It's one of the most walkable in the world. You can get anywhere within 40 minutes on foot.
