Exchange returns a max of 400 results.
First, the exchange update is great. Not only can you sort by name and price but it is also faster. This is great.
However, it looks like all good things have to come at a price. When doing a search on the exchange the max number of results it will return is 400. This would be fine for most cases, however some full name searches also match partial names of other items.
For example:
Search: Deflector Array Mk VI
Sort by Price
Ship Deflector
This search would ideally return only items which are named "Deflector Array Mk VI". In reality, however, it returns items named "Positron Deflector Array Mk VI", "Tachyon Deflector Array Mk VI", "Graviton Deflector Array Mk VI", and "Deflector Array Mk VI".
This proublem is compounded by the fact that "Deflector Array Mk VI" is a crafting base item, therefore it is more expensive then the 400 results that are returned.
Two ways to fix this proublem would be:
A) Return all results. This would likely make the system slower.
B) Give the option to search only for an exact string. This would let people search for only "Deflector Array Mk VI" as well as doing a general search all deflectors in a given level if they are not sure exactly what type of deflector they want.
Like I said, I love the new exchange interface. This is, however, a severe limitation to the new interface.
What would happen if you sorted by name? Would each group result be sorted by price?
There are so many ways to tweak the existing exchange view and they've only added a tiny amount. Sort by price, with a range you can enter or any price, sort by stats (+15, +20 etc) and the ability to toggle those between ascending and descending order. Those, for me, would help a lot and it still leaves plenty of room for improvement. The way it was before this recent change was laughable at best and even after these changes it's still very poor.

Nicotiana species were a big hit in Victorian flower gardens: tall, stately and oh-so-fragrant.

(If you're interested, a trait that happens at dusk but not all night long is a vespertine one. While bats are nocturnal animals, Nicotiana have a vespertine fragrance.) Read More

HoopsHype Joshua Harris rumors
What about criticism that Romney is facing, that Bain Capital killed companies, destroyed jobs? "Ultimately, yeah, basically, there definitely are situations where you can create value through making companies more efficient," he said. "Sometimes that means that jobs are downsized. But really, we live in a competitive world, and to make a company successful globally, sometimes that needs to be done. "And ultimately, really, the beneficiaries are the normal local firefighters, teachers, policemen, and people like that. I think over time, in any election, this will be positioned one way or another. But I feel good about what I do in terms of being good for the country." Philadelphia Inquirer
David Stern was in the Wells Fargo Center last night, and before he took his seat with 76ers majority owner Joshua Harris to watch the Sixers' overtime loss against the Denver Nuggets, he addressed the media about the state of the NBA and the Sixers. "It's fun to be here," said Stern. "It's always good to be in a place where a team is undefeated at home and the team is in first place." Philadelphia Inquirer
Sunday afternoon the hardwood was down at the Wells Fargo Center for friends of 76ers owner Joshua Harris to enjoy. Harris had a gathering at the sports arena following his running of the Philadelphia Marathon. It was the third time Harris has embarked on the 26.2 mile trek, but his first in the City of Brotherly Love. Harris completed the run in a new personal best time of 3 hours, 48 minutes. "The time is probably too important to me," the 46-year old explained. "I ran my first marathon in 4 hours, 20 minutes, my second in 3:53 and my third in 3:48. So yes, it is important to me; it means a lot." It meant a lot, too, that Harris could run a marathon in the city he once called home. "I decided once I made the investment in the Sixers that I love running and so I chose the Philly marathon because it would be a nice way to connect with the city," Harris said. "Or reacquaint myself with all the areas and people." CSNPhilly.com
The new owners were unable to address any issues about players because of the ongoing NBA lockout, although did announce that they had let go general manager Ed Stefanski and laid the brunt of the day-to-day basketball operations on president Rod Thorn and head coach Doug Collins. Aron said the management is "moving 100 miles an hour on all fronts and we will be ready with something fabulous" when the lockout ends. Philadelphia Inquirer
"You can be assured that we are interested owners and focused," Harris said. "Behind the scenes, there will be lots of debate about what we do with players, but at the end of the day, Rod is the captain of the ship. We were lucky enough to buy the third most winning franchise, a storied franchise at a time when we think we were able to get an appropriate deal . . . "The team has been less connected with its fans and as a result wasn't generating revenue and selling tickets as we think it can do. It wasn't realizing its potential. There are lots of things we can do by improving the financial situation of the team, connecting with fans, making it a great experience and we have to win. We have a team and executives very capable of doing that." Philadelphia Inquirer
So maybe the new owners of the Philadelphia 76ers, a partnership group led by buyout financier Joshua Harris, are banking on the distressed economy and the ongoing N.B.A. lockout makes this a good time to buy distressed property. The deal, which started in April, with Comcast-Spectator, was approved by the N.B.A. Board of Governors and completed Monday. The terms of the sale were not disclosed. The new ownership group, which includes minority partners such as rapper/actor Will Smith and his wife, actress Jada Pinkett-Smith, is not wasting time making changes during their first day in charge: General Manager Ed Stefanski has been fired, ticket prices have been slashed, and a new team slogan was unveiled during a Tuesday press conference in Philadelphia. Harris announced Rod Thorn will be staying as team president, and Doug Collins remains as head coach. "We were lucky enough when we bought the team to have two fantastic people doing one job," Harris said. "We are going to stay with Rod. There are no current plans to replace Ed." New York Times
The 76ers' new ownership team includes one of the city's favorite sons: Will Smith. Sources with knowledge of the sale agreement told ESPN.com that the ownership group that will be introduced later Tuesday includes Philly native Smith as a minority shareholder. The presence of Smith in an ownership consortium headlined by New York-based leveraged buyout specialist Joshua Harris, David Blitzer and former NBA agent and Sacramento Kings executive Jason Levien means that the Atlantic Division now houses two giants from the entertainment industry. Named by Newsweek in April 2007 as the most powerful actor in Hollywood, Smith joins the Sixers in a capacity akin to music mogul Jay-Z's role with the New Jersey Nets. And Levien is believed to be the first former agent to be part of an NBA ownership group since Lewis Schaffel served as the original managing partner of the Miami Heat. ESPN.com
Sources say that the Indonesian media magnate Erick Thohir is also joining the Sixers as the first Asian investor in an NBA team. "We are honored to have the opportunity to be affiliated with this storied franchise," Harris said in July. "As a basketball fan who attended college in Philadelphia and with family roots here, I have always felt a strong connection to this city and the 76ers." ESPN.com
The NBA announced early Tuesday that its owners had unanimously approved the sale of the Philadelphia 76ers to New York-based investor Joshua Harris. Word that Harris had bid to purchase the Sixers from Comcast-Spectator broke last spring, with a deal worth a reported $280 million being reached in July. The sale approval comes in a quite odd time for the league, as the NBA lockout has been underway for 109 days. Another team, the Atlanta Hawks, is reportedly working through the sale process, albeit on a different timeline than the Sixers. Comcast's sale of the Sixers represents a 57 percent return on an initial investment made in 1996. The Sixers made one NBA Finals trip during that span, in Allen Iverson's heyday. SB Nation
The 76ers have issued a release stating they have a "major announcement" they will make tomorrow at The Palestra. As reported at the end of last week, Comcast-Spectacor's sale of the Sixers has been approved by the NBA's Board of Governors. Tomorrow's announcement will be the introduction of the new ownership group, led by New York billionaire Joshua Harris. Harris and his investment group have purchased the Sixers for approximately $280 million. Terms of the sale were agreed to in July and have been pending the NBA's approval since. Philadelphia Inquirer
A source with close ties to Comcast-Spectacor says that the deal to sell the Sixers to a group led by billionaire Joshua Harris has been completed. The deal reportedly received approval from the NBA Board of Governors late last week and they dotted the i's and crossed the t's Monday. Philly Sports Daily
The NBA Board of Governors has approved Comcast-Spectacor's sale of the 76ers to a group of investors led by New York billionaire Joshua Harris, an NBA source confirmed. The sale is expected to officially close early next week; the new ownership group is expected to hold a news conference, possibly as early as Tuesday. Terms of the sale were agreed upon in July: $280 million for 100 percent of the franchise. Completion of the sale has been pending league approval for more than two months while the league is mired in a labor dispute with the NBA Players Association. Philadelphia Inquirer
The sale of the 76ers to a group headed by Joshua Harris was approved yesterday by the NBA Board of Governors, according to an NBA source. Philadelphia Inquirer
The organization is expected to hold a press conference in Philadelphia sometime next week to formally announce the sale. Though the NBA is currently in the midst of a lockout, Harris will now be able to fill in fans as to what his plans are with the future of the team, at least somewhat. Because of the lockout, Harris will not be alowed to discuss players or team personnel issues. One of the bigger questions surrounding the team is if current general manager Ed Stefanski will hold on to that job title. Stefanski has interviewed with the Toronto Raptors and is said to be a leading candidate for their GM position. Stefanski is held in very high regard by coach Doug Collins, who came in last season and improved the team from 27 wins to 44 in his initial season. Philadelphia Inquirer
The sale price is $280 million and does not include the Wells Fargo Center, where the team will now become a tenant. The arena will remain owned by Comcast-Spectacor, which also owns the Flyers. Harris, a co-founder of Apollo Global Management, bought the team from Comcast-Spectacor and chairman Ed Snider back in July. The new ownership also includes David Blitzer, a senior managing director of The Blackstone Group; former NBA player agent and Sacramento King executive Jason Levien; and Art Wrubel, who runs Wesley Capital in New York. Harris and Blitzer are both Wharton graduates. Philadelphia Inquirer
Comcast-Spectacor's sale of the 76ers to a group of investors led by New York billionaire Joshua Harris is expected to close early next week, according to a source close to the situation. Terms of the sale were agreed upon in July, but the deal has been pending approval of the NBA's board of governors for more than two months. The NBA has been mired in a lockout since July 1. On Monday, the league canceled the first two weeks of the 2011-12 regular season. The new ownership group is expected to speak publicly for the first time next week, assuming the sale is officially approved, as expected. Philadelphia Inquirer
By the end of the month, Comcast-Spectactor should be out of the basketball business when the NBA is expected to approve the sale of the team to buyout specialist Joshua Harris. Snider inherited one of the worst teams in the league in 1996 and had the Sixers in the NBA finals in 2001. The Sixers were mired in mediocrity for most of the last decade, and sagging crowds and massive financial losses led Comcast-Spectactor to pitch a "for sale" sign and strike a tentative deal to sell in July. "It was mostly economics," Snider said of the decision. Losing money? "A lot," Snider said, declining specifics. "We felt that we had given it our best shot and it was time for someone else to take over." MSNBC.com
Harris, head of the investment group whose ownership of the 76ers is pending approval by the NBA board of governors, seems like a man with few weaknesses: He's a billionaire, a respected businessman, a family man, and an athlete - not necessarily listed not necessarily in order of importance. He ran the 2010 New York City Marathon in a time of 3 hours, 53 minutes///, and 41 seconds///. He has five kids with his wife, Marjorie. According to Forbes, he's worth $1.2 billion. He recently attended his 20-year reunion for Harvard Business School and came across as the same guy he was when M.C. Hammer was cool and when he couldn't buy a small country: kind, down-to-earth, charming, clearly the smartest in a room filled with intelligence. Philadelphia Inquirer

Summer is the season for adventure, exploration, and expanding your horizons. With this in mind we created the Horizon Limited Edition Color Collection. Inspired by the gorgeous landscape of the arid desert, this collection is minimalist, versatile, and universally flattering on all skin tones.
The Horizon Limited Edition Color Collection features the following full-size products:
Bone Satin Matte Eyeshadow: A sheer neutral cream with a soft matte finish perfect for all over the lid to brighten the eyes.
Terracotta Pearluster Eyeshadow: A warm earthy clay with a soft glowing finish, perfect to apply all over the lid to enhance eye color and also to contour the eyes in the crease.
Desert Poppy Lip Tint: A creamy dusty rose for muted pretty lips all summer long.
This special collection is now available along with the Horizon Full Color Story and Horizon Brush Collection. We hope you enjoy playing with these new shades and expanding your horizons all summer long!
What could be more perfect for a fall collection from a makeup company in Portland, Oregon than a collection called "Stormy Weather?" After all, Portland didn't get its rainy reputation undeservedly. But after a summer of record-breaking temperatures, everyone can look forward to cooler temperatures and a bit of precipitation!
Our Summer Fling look, created with The Hamptons collection, is easy to apply, but because it uses the beautiful, ocean-blue Southampton eyeshadow, the look is more playful and bright than the more neutral Summer Romance look.
Our first 3 for $30 eyeshadow sets were such a big hit that we decided to go a little bit wild with the newer ones. So when we first asked Urmila to model our Vivid! for Brown Eyes eyeshadow set, she was agreeable. Then we told her the colors in the set. "Aegean??? I don't think I can wear blue eyeshadow," she said. Of course we told her she definitely could, and we would prove it. The results are here for the world to see!
We started out with Urmila's Satin Matte Foundation, Beige 4, and applied it with our #25 Foundation Brush. With the #3 Concealer Brush, we also brushed a bit of foundation onto her eyelids to give a nice neutral base. Then we added a bit of Satin Matte Blush in Melon to the apples of her cheeks with our #21 Buff Brush.
Since Urmila was a little "blue-shy," we wanted to keep her look simple and office (if your office isn't a cosmetics company) appropriate. We brushed Leone Luminous Shimmer Eyeshadow over her entire eye area using the #37 Eye Blending Brush. Then with the number #36 Pointed Crease Brush, we added the slightest touch of Aegean Luminous Shimmer Eyeshadow to Urmila's crease and blended it well. Then we mixed some Aegean with water and applied it as a thick liner with the #33 Angle Liner Brush, winging the outer corners up and out. To add definition to Urmila's lash line, we used Black Satin Matte Eyeliner, just smudged into the roots of her lashes. To finish the look, we slicked on some Organic Nourishing Lipbalm in Holly Berry.
If you are a bit more "blue-venturous," try using Aegean on your entire lid, either wet (for the very bold) or dry (for the more subdued). But we rest our case...see Urmila, you CAN wear blue shadow!
For west coast girls like those of us at Alima, The Hamptons seem so glamorous. It conjures up images of biking past white, sand beaches with pounding surf on one side and sun-bleached homes with green lawns on the other side. We can imagine popping in to the mom & pop grocery store only to find we're rubbing elbows with a celebrity. Clam bakes, shared summer rentals and all-night bonfire parties sound so exotic to those of us who call our beaches "the coast."
The Hamptons summer eyeshadow collection is an homage to how we imagine it would be to spend a relaxing summer in the east. We would want a bit of glitz, to catch the daytime sun, or the nighttime firelight, but nothing over the top. We would want a collection of colors that went well together in a variety of ways so we could survive for six or eight weeks with a mere four eyeshadows.
So here it is, our perfect summer eyeshadow collection for our dream trip to The Hamptons:
Shelter Island is the color of sun-warmed sand, or dried beach grass. With a healthy dose of shimmer, it is a perfect base for a complicated look, or great on its own for a subtle wash of color.
Southampton is the flawless blue of the surf or the summer sky. The subtle shimmer makes it a perfect accent color, but it can carry your entire look when you want to be adventurous.
Montauk is the gorgeous bronze of the perfect tan (faux, of course!) with the added glamour of golden shimmer. It is a perfect partner for Shelter Island, used on the lid or in the crease.
Amagansett is a deep, charcoal brown, like a weathered wood building or a piece of dark driftwood, but with some silver sparkle added for good measure. Wear it as a contour or damp as a liner when you want to be dramatic; or smudged dry along the lash line for a simple look.
Apply Shelter Island from lashes to brows with the fluffy #37 Brush. Lightly contour the crease with a touch of Montauk on the #36 Pointed Crease Brush. Smudge a bit of Amagansett along the lash line with a dry #31 Fine Liner Brush. Apply Mauna Loa Bronzer, and then add a touch of Raspberry Satin Matte Blush to the apples of the cheeks. Finish the look with Organic Nourishing Lipbalm in Sweet Pea.
Apply Shelter Island from crease to brows with the #37 Brush. Using the #39 Large Shadow Brush, place Southampton on the lid, from lashes to crease. Contour the crease with Montauk on the #36 Brush. Complete the eye with Amagansett on a damp #31 Brush. Add Sahara Luminous Shimmer Blush to the cheeks, then slick on some Organic Nourishing Lipbalm in Mango.
Most people with blue eyes already know, either through trial and error or just instinctively, how to make the most of them with eye shadows. But, if you are looking for a simple set to do it without having to put much thought into it, our 3 for $30 Best for Blue Eyes set is a great option.
We applied these shades to Noelle's beautiful blue eyes to show you how effective they can be. We started with Vanilla Satin Matte Eyeshadow from her lashes to brow, using the #37 Eye Blending Brush. Then, with the #36 Pointed Crease Brush, Palomino Luminous Shimmer Eyeshadow went on the lid and extended slightly into the crease. The #36 brush works great for packing more color onto the lid because of the compact shape of the bristles. The finishing touch was Luminous Shimmer Eyeliner in Illusion, applied with a damp #31 Fine Lining Brush. When Noelle looks into the camera, although not a lot of eyelid shows, but as you can see, it still emphasizes her beautiful blue eyes!
Noelle is also wearing her Satin Matte Foundation in Beige 2, Luminous Shimmer Blush in Freja and Organic Nourishing Lip Balm in Mango.
Our 3 for $30 eyeshadow collections have been a big hit, but Great for Green Eyes is especially popular. The shadows in this collection work for all eye colors, but have the power to make almost-green eyes take on a more emerald hue, and make truly green eyes dazzling.
This beautiful set includes Luminous Shimmer Shadow in Lana, Satin Matte Shadow in Lilac and Luminous Shimmer Eyeliner in Carnevale. Here, we are showing the collection on Hannah, whose eye color shifts between blue and green. On the day we did the shoot, her eyes were looking particularly blue, but the collection definitely made them look more green. We applied Lana from lashes to brow with the #37 Blending Brush, then applied Lilac on her lid with the #36 Pointed Crease Brush. (It's compact bristles give great color pay-off!) We lined with Carnevale on a damp #31 Fine Lining Brush.
To finish the look, we used a bit of Satin Matte Blush in Mimosa and Organic Nourishing Lip Balm in Sweet Pea.

This recipe takes less than 45 minutes if one uses pre-roasted red bell peppers from a jar - preferably the pre-stemmed/seeded ones! Delicious either way.
This dish was simply intoxicating!!! It did take me more than 45 minutes...closer to an hour. I believe the recipe makers forgot to consider the sometimes tedious work of peeling peppers (it added about 15 minutes, and I consider myself fairly experienced at the task). If you want to cut down on time, simmering can be reduced to 10 minutes. Also, I chose to use skim milk instead of half and half for diet considerations; the flavor was still excellent. The red wine vinegar adds a distinctive kick.
Definitely a good soup and my family liked very much, however, as many other reviewers said, it was very time consuming. Roasting wasn't nearly as tedious as trying to remove the seeds. Maybe there's a reason, but why couldn't the seed bulb be removed from the top of the pepper before roasting? My husband agreed that although the soup was good, it wasn't good enough to through all the work.
My husband and I loved this soup. After the peppers were roasted, it was quite easy to complete. I will definitely make it again.
I thought the soup was excellent. I had a red pepper soup in a restaurant the other day that was so good and was looking for a similar recipe. The only thing I changed was adding a can of niblets corn to the puree. It's a keeper.
This is an incredible recipe - as a newlywed, I was nervous about cooking for guests but I plunged in and it was wonderful- I am making more today after a sold out pot last night! It did take much, much more than the 45 minute estimate the recpipe suggests, though. Perhaps will be quicker 2nd time around...Thank you!
MMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMM! I cook often, so few recipes make it into the repeat list. This did!
I made this for Easter. When polling the guests they said to make it again. I cut back on the red wine vinegar and cayenne just a bit to be safe. Serve with poppy seed dinner rolls.
I gave it a 2-fork rating because the soup had a sour taste even before I added the red wine vinegar. Perhaps that was due to my using commercial mushroom broth instead of veggie or chicken stock. I had to modify it by making a roux of flour, butter and leeks, then some milk, and that rounded out the flavour. In fact it tasted pretty good after that! I"d make it again, with my modifications. And I'd omit the vinegar (I've noticed that most other recipes don't call for it).
This soup was great - easy to prepare and good, robust flavor. I will definitely make it again, but next time, I'll double the recipe so I have leftovers!

In addition to its digene HPV Test, which QIAGEN distributes widely in the United States, Europe and elsewhere, the company is partnering with the non-profit organization PATH to develop a specially designed version of the screening test for low-resource countries. This new test is sensitive enough to identify the largest number of women at risk - a critical characteristic when a woman may be able to get to a medical clinic just once or twice in her lifetime. Yet at the same time, the new HPV test can be run without electricity or running water, and can be administered by workers with minimal training.
"Public-private partnerships are essential to advancing the health agenda for women, and QIAGEN is committed to leading the way," Mr. Schatz told the audience at a panel discussion on corporate social responsibility at the summit. "We look forward to working in tandem with the many partners we have found at this summit and elsewhere."

Fredericksburg Man Jailed in His Own Stabbing
by Deirdre Blake
posted Apr 3 2012 7:59PM
A Fredericksburg man is arrested after reporting that he was stabbed near the Central Park Townhomes Tuesday morning.
Fredericksburg Police Spokeswoman Natatia Bledsoe says emergency crews treated Dante Rojas for his wound and took him to the hospital. Police launch a massive search for the alleged stabbing suspect, but then the investigation brings new information. The 23 year old apparently stabbed himself. They believe he may have done so to avoid going back to jail immediately. Rojas faced an outstanding warrant for domestic assault and battery and a pending probation violation.
Rojas now also faces a charge for filing a false police report and is back in the Rappahannock Regional Jail.

Explanation and summary
The sixth plague of the 10 plagues that the God of the Israelites sent as judgment upon Egypt, through Moses, was boils, as recorded in the book of Exodus. In this plague, boils break out on all people in Egypt. The plague insulted any god represented by an animal, like Hathor.
In the plague of boils ashes were used, probably in the same way and to the same end as the clay was used in opening the eyes of the blind man (John 9:6), i.e. to attract attention and to fasten the mind of the observer upon what the Lord was doing. This plague in the order of its coming, immediately after the murrain, and in the description given of it and in the significant warning of the "pestilence" yet to come (Exodus 9:15), appears most likely to have been pestis minor, the milder form of bubonic plague.
Virulent rinder-pest among cattle in the East is regarded as the precursor of plague among men and is believed to be of the same nature. It may well be, as has been thought by some, that the great aversion of the ancient Egyptians to the contamination of the soil by decaying animals was from the danger thereby of starting an epidemic of plague among men (Dr. Merrins, Biblical Sacra , 1908, 422-23).
Biblical Text (KJV)
Exodus 9:8-12
8 And the Lord said unto Moses and unto Aaron, Take to you handfuls of ashes of the furnace, and let Moses sprinkle it toward the heaven in the sight of Pharaoh.
9 And it shall become small dust in all the land of Egypt, and shall be a boil breaking forth with blains upon man, and upon beast, throughout all the land of Egypt.
10 And they took ashes of the furnace, and stood before Pharaoh; and Moses sprinkled it up toward heaven; and it became a boil breaking forth with blains upon man, and upon beast.
11 And the magicians could not stand before Moses because of the boils; for the boil was upon the magicians, and upon all the Egyptians.
12 And the Lord hardened the heart of Pharaoh, and he hearkened not unto them; as the Lord had spoken unto Moses.

The Supreme Court issued the second decision this term that will impact class action law. The issue in Standard Fire Ins. Co. v. Knowles, No. 11-1450 (March 19, 2013) concerned the common practice of a plaintiff who files a class action in state court (typically in a "hell hole" jurisdiction for defendants), and in the complaint stipulates, prior to certification of the class, that he and the class he seeks to represent will not seek damages that exceed $5 million in total. The goal, of course, is to thwart the defendant's ability to remove the case to federal court. The Court unanimously held that such a stipulation does not have its intended effect and neither binds the class nor removes the case from CAFA's scope.
The Supreme Court considered its reasoning to be "simple." Stipulations must be binding to have effect. But the plaintiff's pre-certification stipulation is not binding because a named plaintiff who files a proposed class action cannot legally bind the class before certification. Accordingly, because the plaintiff's stipulation bound no one but himself, he had not reduced the value of the putative class members' claims.
Beyond this simple reasoning, the Court envisioned a number of events that could cause the stipulation to be void. The state court could condition class certification on excising the stipulation. Or the court might find the named plaintiff inadequate because of the stipulation when the real value of the case well exceeds $5 million. Or another class member could intervene with an amended complaint without the stipulation and the court could substitute that party as the class representative. The bottom line is that the stipulation was not binding and the district court "should have ignored that stipulation." This is a welcome development in removing yet another obstacle to federal court jurisdiction of CAFA cases.

Seguin: Boston 'great place, great city'
|06.24.10 at 6:29 pm ET
LOS ANGELES ' About 24 hours before he is likely to be selected by the Bruins with the second overall pick in Friday's NHL draft, Tyler Seguin was sitting on a terrace balcony absorbing the buzz of downtown LA. But the skilled forward had little trouble quickly shifting his vision to thoughts of playing in Boston.
'It's a great place, great city,' Seguin said Thursday afternoon. 'When I went there I thought the city looked like Europe. It was so different and so beautiful. The rink was great ' a nice facility and a great fan base as well.'
While the prevailing consensus among the hockey world is that the Edmonton Oilers will select Taylor Hall with the first pick in the draft and the Bruins will then take Seguin, the Brampton, Ontario, native is still not sure how everything will unfold.
'I have no idea, I think its win-win if it's Edmonton or Boston,' Seguin said. 'I'm not expecting anything. There could be a trade, there could be anything. It's going to be a fun day tomorrow.'
After completing a strong junior hockey season with the Plymouth Whalers, in which he scored 48 goals and generated 58 assists, Seguin emerged as the top ranked prospect by NHL central scouting. He also impressed scouts and league GMs with a strong showing at the NHL combine last month.
Seguin's work ethic is also prevalent during the draft week. He has managed to continue his training regime despite some heavy time demands.
'I went to the hotel gym yesterday and I'm going to go today if I have some time,' Seguin said. 'It's a little hard right now, it's been a little crazy but after tomorrow, everything will slow down a little bit and I'll be able to get back to my program.'

How to Be a Backwards Beekeeper
1. Catch your own swarm instead of buying one.
Like native plants, the theory is that locally adapted feral bee colonies are more robust, healthy, and able to resist local stresses than whatever industrially-produced bees you might buy through the mail. How do you catch bees? When they swarm, which is likely to happen any time during the warm seasons, all you have to do is find a swarm, trap it in a box, and then transfer it to your hive box. They will make themselves at home.
You can also post on Craigslist, advertising bee removal services. Other people will probably pay you to humanely remove their bees. A third option is to set a bee trap. This is simply an empty box of some sort, sprayed with either queen bee pheromone or lemongrass oil, which attracts honeybees. If you're lucky and patient enough, eventually bees will move right into your box and it's as easy as that.
Killer Bees
The first question beginner beekeepers will probably ask is, "What about killer bees? How do I know I'm not capturing a killer bee swarm?" Ms. Askren, who regularly assists in wild colony cutouts, dismisses the whole "killer bee scare" as a figment of a fear mongering media's imagination. "You should be afraid, but only a little. Honeybees sting and it hurts," but they're not going to kill anyone, Ms. Askren assures. "If you're working with bees, you need to gear up," but beekeepers needn't worry about "killer bees."
"Bees only sting when they're afraid you're going to destroy their home. Beekeepers call it defensive action. Non-beekeepers call it aggressive behavior. If you have a swarm, they are very unlikely to sting. In that swarm they know they're homeless and waiting for instruction from the queen. Some colonies are more aggressive than others, but any bee colony will protect itself, with stings, when attacked. This is the nature of bees. They don't go out looking to kill things."
2. Don't use any foundation.
According to The Idiot's Guide to Beekeeping, most people who keep bees are not even aware that beekeeping without foundation is possible. No one told the bees they need foundation and they've been building their own just fine in the wild. The natural method is to use starter strips, which is an 1/8th inch strip of wood coated with wax which runs along the top of each comb frame. It simply provides a guide for the bees so they don't draw comb at strange angles, which would be inconvenient for the beekeeper.
Ms. Askren uses comb she gathers from bee cutouts as a guide for her bees. A "cutout" is beekeeper terminology for removing established hives built in walls or other places that need to be removed. "One of the big benefits is you get comb that bees have already built and it's very useful in building a new hive or expanding an old hive," she advises. You can simply tie the comb to the frame with string or rubber bands, which the bees remove once they are established in their new home.
However, it's not a perfect science. In one of her hives, Ms. Askren's bees built comb so randomly that it was impossible to inspect the hive. "With the next boxes, I started out with a frame of cutout comb and then an empty frame and then a frame of cutout. On the empty frame, they built straight comb." And that's been her method ever since. "Some colonies just build straight, others don't."

I love pet music cd's

Great light music to leave on for your pets. Many times I close the tv, just too noisy and I turn on the pet music cd. It also is soothing to them becasue they know the tunes so well since they hear it so often.
Pros: Great to leave on to calm pets
Cons: Not sure why this asks for feeding!

From past experience I can tell you what is going to happen with these doffs. THEY WILL NOT BE REMOVED OR CHANGED. This is as bad as the snb doff fiasco that plagued space as soon as Halor made them plentiful. They underwent 2 nerfs and finally had a 15 second immunity added into them before they were supposedly balanced. But the base concept and how they work never changed.
That being said these ambush doffs need to be nerfed so hard that it will force a choice on the tactical players part on how he wants his ambush to operate. Does he want to give up that 15 seconds of full on damage for a target that is tanky and hides behind cover. The only good thing about these doffs is that the ambush is gone after the one attack is released.
The problem is that one attack is a 99 percent sure fire kill. The dot damage numbers will have to be nerfed to such a point that even another tactical captain can't die from taking a fully buffed one shot with these. That's the only way to bring these into balance. You have to remember these problems are occurring from just one tact firing one shot. What happens when I keep firing and keep attacking even without ambush my others buffs still do lots of damage.
Also a person can couple the stasis pistol with this attack. Decloak stasis you wait about 8 seconds of the 10 second stasis field hit them with a lunge or pulsewave 2 attack run away and watch them helplessly tick away to death. Bort if you eventually see Kollins and I's video and are reading all this you need to nerf these things damage by a good 90 percent just to balance them out. No doff should be a guaranteed kill. That is for the skilled player to accomplish.

This versatile salad can be served crisper-cold or warm from the saute pan. Sweet onions, peaches, and rosemary make a serendipitous mix.
Swap out the same old baked beans for this fresh, quick version. Yellow mustard and vinegar add a tangy snap that balances the maple syrup and salty ham.

Lime juice, salt, and pepper give green beans fresh flavor in this 15-minute side dish.

These nibbles are refreshing and quick to prepare. Toss watermelon with goat cheese, lemon-flavored olive oil, and a dash of salt and pepper. Spear each one with toothpicks for easy snacking.
Ground chipotle pepper gives this spicy corn and potato toss a kick. Prosciutto adds a special twist.

This irresistible salad travels beautifully. Simply mix up a mixture of lettuce, peppers, bacon, and onion with these easy-to-make deviled eggs. A splash of dill vinaigrette adds fresh flavor.
Toss cauliflower, red pepper, and carrots with a mixture of oil-caraway seed, white wine vinegar, and crushed red pepper for a make-ahead dish that's dazzling with grilled chicken or beef.

After 12 minutes in the first half Long Beach had made just two baskets, committed a number of turnovers and was totally out of sync. However, Santa Barbara wasn't much better and failed to take advantage of the sluggish 49ers and only maintained an 18-10 lead.
The 49ers got a lift from a former 49er who helped get the crowd into the game.
Former Long Beach State star Casper Ware was introduced during a timeout in the first half by President F. King Alexander. Ware's presence instantly ignited the crowd. Moments later, Freeland transferred the crowd's enthusiasm and sparked the Long Beach State's offense.
Freeland scored seven points during a Long Beach Sate 12-2 run to give the 49ers a 22-20 lead with 4:05 left in the half. The midseason transfer from DePaul added a 3-point play and another basket down the stretch to propel the 49ers to a 30-28 halftime lead.
Freeland scored 12 points and Ennis 11 for the 49ers in the first half. Former Edison High standout Kyle Boswell scored eight points in the opening half to lead the Gauchos.
Both teams shot under 40 percent in the first half and each had 17 rebounds.
Boswell led Santa Barbara with 13 points and Brown added 12 points.
Alan Williams, the Gauchos' leading scorer and rebounder who averages 17.4 points and 9.9 rebounds per game, missed his third consecutive game because of a strained left hamstring tendon.
Santa Barbara dropped to 2-9 on the road this season.
Alexander presented Ware, a two-time Big West Conference Player of the Year, with the Big West game ball from last season's championship. Ware is playing professionally in Italy. Another former 49er, Eugene Phelps, who is playing professionally in Mexico, also attended the game. ... When Freeland and Keala King are in the starting lineup LBS is 7-0. ... Santa Barbara has not won at the Pyramid since 2008. ... The 49ers hold a 61-55 all-time record against the Gauchos. ... Kyle Boswell (Huntington Beach Edison High) is second on Santa Barbara in scoring, averaging 13 points per game. Entering Wednesday's game Boswell is second in the conference with 51 3's. ... The 49ers host second-place Cal Poly – the only conference team to beat Long Beach State this season – at 4 p.m. Saturday.

I can't believe finished this game in less than one day. I could not stop playing. I just wanted to see the end and what the story was all about. I finished it all and I still do not know.
I still need to collect some certain shiny, pointy things, but I have an idea where some are. I love that even though I finished it, I still find new stuff. Like the additional text for the red books in the Epilogue. Fantastic game. Played it from 8 pm when I bought it, straight through 4 am. It's just so beautiful, sometimes I would just stand still and look at it, soak it all in.

Finished it last night. It's really short (I think I spent about 3 hours with it) but very well done. The puzzles where so damned good that I refused to seek help in doing them. What feels really great about the puzzles is that they aren't like Portal (which I also loved), where it was as much about reflexes as thinking out the right solution. They're all about using your mind, which makes trying to figure them out infinately less frustrating. Every time that I found myself being pixels away from making the jump, or escaping without dying, I was doing it wrong. The game makes you step back and take a look at your faulty solution to find a real one (which plays brilliantly into some of the game's themes).
Anyhow, awesome game. As short as it is for $15, it's so damned good that it feels like a steal. The puzzles are brilliant, the licensed soundtrack is an amazing collection of works that I would have never listened to on my own, the art is fantastic (I'm not too keen on Tim and the enemies, but the levels and backgrounds are pure beauty), and the story had me laying in bed thinking about what it all means after I finished chapter 6. I just wish I cared to play the time trials....maybe I'll come back to them at some point.
Amazing game.
"8/8 Stars? What's that all about? The constellation outside of your house? I think I have 8 stars out there (gotta go check) but I have no idea how they got there."
i did the same earlier......i have no stars at present but I'm glad I now i have another excuse to go back through it again!! ;)
you can youtube it, but it might ruin the surprise.....how ppl found them without help is amazing tho. :|
"yep, 8 stars to get but WELL hidden.....i only looked at a tube vid for a min or so, so only know how to get a few of em at the moment.
See.....I have this constellation of 8 stars outside of Tim's house. But I didn't go out and collect any stars. Does the constellation fill in in another way when you get them? I guess I'm off to hunt for hidden stars, then......"
still don't know what you get for getting them tho??
I beat it, I never thought a game off xbla could have such an awsome and emotional story.

beat it today. last night i was up until 1 trying to figure out how to get the my last two puzzle pieces in world 6 (piece #2 in "elevator action" and the piece behind the locked door where that damn cannon continually shoots fireballs...can't recall the level name right now). i had a really strong desire to check youtube, but i eventually decided to sleep on it. my dog woke me up and wanted to go outside at 4am, at which point i had a cigarette and an epiphany for both puzzles. so glad i didn't cheat.
this is easily my favorite game released this year, maybe in the last couple years. so satisfying, and the end blew me away.

You are absolutely right, Rapt0ria. I was surprised to find me playing a single-player game for things that do not give me achievement points, like the stars. And I enjoyed it and every time I got a star, it felt like a bigger achievement, than all the things I did for most of my gamerscore.
(amazing game by the way)
