owner from CA reviewed the Power of Books Sculptural Glass-Topped Side Table
Bottomline: Yes, would recommend to a friend.
Comments: I bought this one about a year ago and have been using it as an accent table in my living room. It simply looks great and gets a lot of attention from guest. I only would wish the top glass to be a dark colored one (it looks blackish in the image but it is clear glass). This would prevent the suction pads to be seen from up.

Scattered showers and storms possible today
Don't forget your umbrella. A weak frontal boundary remains stretched across the region, continuing the possibility for showers and storms today.
This Afternoon: Clearing Skies, Warmer, Storms Possible
Highs: Near 90 | Wind: S 4-8 m.p.h.
Overnight: Mostly Clear, Muggy, Patchy Fog
Lows: 70s | Wind: S 5 m.p.h.
Thursday: Partly Cloudy, T-Storms Likely
Highs: Low 90s | Wind: SW 4-8 m.p.h.
After a cloudy and rainy start, skies will begin to clear through the rest of the afternoon and temperatures will respond with highs around the 90 degree mark. A few storms may pop this afternoon with all of this leftover moisture from this mornings rain and a few more storms will likely pop over the mountains. Tonight, lows will fall into the 70s under mostly clear skies. Some patchy fog will be possible for the morning commute.
Thursday will see a good chance for showers and storms through the day as plenty of instability will be available. A few storms may even be strong to severe. Otherwise expect partly cloudy skies with highs around the lower 90s. Friday will bring another chance for storms for the end of the week with high temperatures a touch lower in the upper 80s.
For the weekend ahead, temperatures appear like they will reach around the 90 degree mark each day under mostly sunny skies. There is a slight chance for a lingering shower Saturday morning, but overall the weekend looks dry.

It's been some time since purchasing my 650 Elefant.
Original post & pics here.
It's been an exercise in frustration...not in finding parts but just getting the people who have parts to actually ship them.
Here's the short repair list:
New timing belts
Oil Change
Rebuilt Carbs
Rebuilt Ohlins shock (with added remote reservoir from a 1984 Cagiva 125 MX and 1.5" more travel than stock
Rebuilt Forks
Four new turn signals
K&N air filter
Fresh TKC 80s
Flushed and refilled brake & clutch fluids
and probably a dozen other things I'm forgetting
The wheels really need to be relaced which I won't do until I find suitable replacement rims with the proper bronze anodizing. One carb is still dumping fuel at light throttle (gurgling badly and 30 MPG). The rear brake switch is stuck on. The oil sender switch started oozing after about 100 miles. It's a few minor nits but she's very close to being done and ready to ride....okay...words, words, words...here are the pictures.

Statement of Significance (as of designation - December 9, 1997):
This house was the home of Wilson Bruce Evans (1824-1898), a leading black abolitionist and successful member of Oberlin's commercial and educational communities. Evans and his brother Henry participated in the dramatic 1858 Oberlin-Wellington Rescue, saving an escaped slave who had been captured and was to be taken back to his owner in Kentucky. This was one of several well-publicized confrntations resulting from the Fuitive Slave Act of 1850, and it was significant in fueling the nation's sectional differences priort to the Civil War.
Currently, there are no threats to the landmark.

The Israel Defense Forces has issued orders banning 12 settlers from the West Bank.
The right-wing activists—residents of Yitzhar, Havat Gilad, Elon Moreh and Ramat Migron—may not enter the West Bank for periods of three to nine months. They are accused of violence against Palestinians.
The 12 also are accused of planning and executing attacks against Israeli soldiers.
They were served with the restraining orders early Thursday.

Aviation History
JANUARY 2OTH, 1949 F LIGH1 Servicing—A Vital iCog in the Civil Aviation Machine : Field Aircraft Services In this clear aerial photograph of Croydon northside buildings, Field's premises are seen on the right. BACKCRO UCH is the size and complication of the larger aircraft used to-day for the transportation of passengers and freight that the problem of keeping one of them ser- viced and inspected without drastically reducing its utiliza- tion is formidable enough to be causing real concern. However, the facilities of the major airlines, and their co- operation with the manufacturers of the new aircraft during the introductory stage and preliminary period of operation, has to date provided a solution. On a slightly lower plane are the many smaller British and foreign companies which chiefly operate well-known and well-tried aircraft. In their case the actual procedure of maintenance presents no great problem and in most cases ovevhauls, particularly complete overhauls for C. of A., are rajrned out to companies Field Aircraft Services, Ltd. "Fields" specialize in com- plete aircraft overhauls and, while having the facilities to handle almost any light or medium transport as well as certain of the four-engined types, a large proportion of the work is concerned with rapid and efficient overhaul of Dakotas. The company operates from four bases. Bovingdon air- port, Herts, is the international service base for heavy aircraft. Here inspections, maintenance and service, in- cluding power-plant changes, can be handled. At Tollerton airport, Notts, major overhauls for renewal of C. of A. of aircraft up to Dakota size represent the main work. Lympne airport, near Hythe, Kent, is the inter- national service base for light aircraft, including small twins such as the Gemini. The fourth centre of activities, and headquarters of the organization, which, is, of course, a part of the Hunting Group, is at Croydon airport. Director and General Manager at Croydon is Mr. J. L. Smith, and the assistant General Manager, Mr. R. W. Fox. Work here is particularly confined to emgines, airscrews and accessories, including instruments and radio, but a certain amount of airframe servicing is also carried out. Power plants removed at Bovingdon and Tollerton are transported by road to Croydon for complete strip, inspec- tion and reassembly. There is a degree of elasticity in connection with the work undertaken by the four sections, as, for instance, at Croydon, where Dakotas or smaller aircraft may be flown in for an engine change, and where minor repairs and modifications to airfrarnes can be looked after. ^3-fre same Light aircraft are serviced at the company's international base at Lympne. specializing in the work. It is here, however, that efficient and economical work becomes specially important. Long periods spent on the ground by one aircraft of a small fleet, unduly high cost of overhaul, or mediocre work, may in these days represent the difference between success and failure on the part of the operators. Though many operating companies and countries would like to set up their own servicing organizations, this is a 'thing that cannot be done in weeks, or even months, with ; success unless an experienced and skilled nucleus exists. Men to form such a nucleus are at a premium. For this reason a large number of British and foreign operators take their overhaul work to established organizations backed? by this hard-to-come-by experience. Such a company is B 23 Twenty-four hour ser ice for regular operators is offered at Bovingdon, depicted above.

Replying to: Missed Call / Voicemail Notification by motorolawasbetter
Re: Missed Call / Voicemail Notification
There is no perfect solution for this with the i730. I just upgraded to WM5 and the notification is a little better. You have to go into the notification settings and you can set missed calls and voicemails to beep, vibrate, both and/or put a message on the screen. If you set it to both and then find yourself needing to set the phone to vibrate you will still be notified. If you happen to miss the initial notification, however, you are still stuck looking at the balloon. The WM5 upgrade also fixes some of the other items that were a little annoying. It puts a battery indicator on the top of the screen. It also allows you to use Wifi and phone at the same time. I am sure there is other new and better stuff but I am only a couple weeks into it. In order to upload WM5 you first need to have activesync 4.1 or higher. Here is the verizon Link for the upgrade if you are interested. It gives you a pdf install and users manual with a link to the download.

I just got a new TV, and it has all the inputs I need (4*HDMI), but it just occured to me, do I want all those cables (and the innevitable audio return) to/from the TV?
I was wondering if I can put something between that all my sources connect to then output a single HDMI to the TV and maybe an optical or phonos/RCA to my stereo?
Not looking to spend a fortune.

Realized I posted in the wrong forum section, so re-posting here to the correct one.
I am struggling to work with some animations where the legs/knees bend a lot or have good movement (Sprinting characters, or a martial arts stance where the legs are spread a bit and knees are slightly bent while standing up) while using the MEDIEVAL TUNIC (from the dynamic medieval bundle).
Anytime I try to animate, in the middle of my animations it randomly will pull up the tunic above the knees, scrunching it all the way to the hips. Eventually it just becomes entirely malformed. It drapes perfectly on the first frame, with the tunic acting like a robe. The further along it goes in the animation, the more scrunched up the tunic goes—from covering the shins to uncovering everything but underwear. Very odd.
I messed with a few settings, and at the end decided "Screw it, let me try DS 4.5 again."
Well…anytime I load ANY dynamic clothing (tunic, sash, tabard, Kilt, t-shirt, dress) there is no "Fit To" option. Furthermore, the only "Fit To" I can find is in the object's child object (Tunic—> Tunic_Rig) and this does nothing. So anytime I ever try to drape something, even in zero pose, the sleeves fall under M4's arms and nothing fits correctly because there is no "Fit To" parameter for ANY of my dynamic clothing.
I am so at a loss. I simply want to drape a tunic over about 15 frames of animation in what isn't too crazy of bending movement. Yet the only solution I can find is to max out the cloth weight and x10 gravity, which stops the scrunching in DS3. There is no solution in DS4 as I tried uninstalling/reinstalling both the clothing and the plugin. Unfortunately, in DS3 the way it handles the insane gravity causes the dynamic cloth to move in a dramatic, unrealistic way across the animations.
I tried searching google and the forum search function—but unless I'm doing it wrong, even the simplest of searches results in "nothing" being found (even if it should be found) and IMO this forum has one of THE worst search functions I've ever experienced. I even know and remember threads that exist, which it won't even find even if I type in the exact title. So silly!
I will attach two sets of pictures. The first, being what I want it to look like in every frame (the first picture). A very simple drape. All of the pictures after are what happens in the animation drape and what goes horribly wrong. (This is all in DS3, because DS4 has no "Fit To" option for my clothes and thus wont even drape correctly at all).
I've tried messing with literally every setting, and find nothing to help besides gravity/weight (which isn't a real solution).
Help! And thank you!

There is a Big Flaw in the End of the world tho as i live here in Oregon so does the end of the world happen eastern standard time or does it happen pacific does it happen in japan first or where ever ti is the 21st already
Exactly , I live in London .so what clock are we going by ? I find it rather ironic that they could supposedly predict the future but didn't see the end of the empire they had built coming .I just love this theory ,Mind blowing ...wow , just wow !
I have done a lot of research on the subject of 2012 and i have come to a possible conclusion. as many of you know, there are a few different scenarios on what could happen. 3 days of darkness, 2 suns afterwards etc. my belief is that the earth is going to go through the black hole that is expanding at the edge of our solar system and will take three days to get through and when we come out the other side, we will be in a new solar system with 2 suns and different constellations. i know that all of this is hard to believe but its the most rational explanation that i can think of that makes some sense. please can you all consider this as a possibility and let me know your thoughts?

From the article: Golden Chain Trees
Want to impress us? Do you have experience growing golden chain tree? Comparatively few people can make this claim, as this showy specimen is difficult to grow outside of its optimal climate. Relate to us any information you have about how to grow golden chain tree, such as:
- What region do you live in? What's the climate like there?
- What are the soil and light conditions like where you grow it?
- Do you fertilize?
- How much do you water?
If you've made mistakes in growing golden chain trees, please mention those, too, so that others may avoid them.
Some Seedlings to Pull but No Complaints
- I bought a house 6 yrs ago and this tree was in the front yard, it is amazing. I love everything about it except that the seed pods do get all over the lawn and into some of my beds but its nothing to pull them. It is well worth the effort to grow.
- —Guest loretta
Not Looking Good (Leaves Yellowing)
- I live on the Oregon coast, I just planted my first golden chain tree; it's about 8 feet tall. I got it from a local nursery to replace a pine tree that had died. It's been about 3 weeks since it has bloomed beautifully. Now all the leaves are turning yellow and are all dried out. It has been unusually hot here but I water it every other day. Does anyone know why my leaves turning yellow? [Editor's note: Other readers are free to write in and answer this reader's question. However, please be advised that this medium is not meant to be a Q&A. Rather, it's designed to be a way for you to report your triumphs in growing the plants in question.]

Golden Chain Trees
- I've had a golden chain tree on just about every property I've owned since the early 70's. Mine have been lovely and, while on the farm, bloomed most profusely. They do tend to display diseased leaves in some areas I've lived here in central PA, but overall this is a wonderful tree. I love them. Once I had one blow over in the wind and break off. It was half grown and I was upset, but replaced it. So they may need a bit of a prop in the early years. Presently mine has a Walmart stake just to keep it from towering in the wind. It is yet young.

Golden Chain Tree Response
- Thanks so much, David! Golden chain tree is so beautiful!!!
- —Kathleen.Norris
Answer to Kathleen Norris
- Kathleen, you can find a picture of golden chain tree here (copy the following into your browser's address box and hit Enter): http://landscaping.about.com/od/floweringtrees/ig/flowering-tree-pictures/Golden-Chain-Trees.htm
- —Guest David Beaulieu
- You have got my curiosity going. Does anyone have a picture of Golden Chain tree? Doesn't sound like it would survive SE CO.
- —Kathleen.Norris
- I have one of these spectacular trees that has a girth of about 5 ft. I live in Newfoundland and heard that the Laburnums in this neck of the woods were brought here from Bermuda. It is indeed one of the highlights in my garden.
- —Guest Jan
Strike Three!
- I first saw the beautiful Golden Chain tree growing in Easton, Pa. I've also seen them growing extensively in a park in London (England). Here in Maryland, I've tried growing it three times, in two different locations. No success. I've reluctantly given up on it, for now at least. They are indeed too fussy, especially given their brief bloom time. Glad to see your article about them, though.
- —Guest MFine
Golden Chain Tree in Texas
- I am growing 2 at this time. The wildlife eat it as soon as I take chicken wire away. They would be 6' tall by now but instead are still 2'. I do not use fertilizer. I water every other day due to the heat wave central Texas is going through (106 heat index for a month). Nibbling wildlife could be rabbits, squirrels or the deer.
- —Guest Steve
- I had a 6' golden chain tree for 3 years, but then it was winter-killed.
- —Guest George Sweet
The Non-Poisonous Type
- We have similar looking flowers on Cassia fistula trees here in India. These look like ripe grapes from a distance and the plant is non-poisonous, rather possesses medicinal qualities.
- —Guest Anu
Golden Chain Tree in Spokane, Washington
- I first saw this tree at our Japanese Friendship Garden in Spokane, WA (zone 5). I planted one in our backyard with partial sun and shade. I do not fertilize. The tree has done well, estimate a height of 40-50 feet. Watering is from the sprinkler system, usually every day. The blossoms are beautiful and we enjoy the smooth bark on the tree all year long. The tree has not required any special treatment and has prospered each year. When blooming it is our most beautiful tree.
- —Guest Beautiful Tree - Spokane, WA
A Real Looker!
- I live on the Maine coast. Several of my neighbors here grow golden chain trees, like me. I guess our climate suits them just fine. Mine is about 11 feet tall. It grows in a sandy soil and gets full sun. I water it once a week. I fertilize my golden chain tree every year with compost.

The basic building block of plastic is a
molecule called a monomer (meaning one).
Monomers join together to make
polymers (meaning many), which
are the backbones of plastic. Monomers join
in two ways. The first way is called addition.

The second way monomers hook up is a process
called condensation.Basically,
two monomers come together, casting off
a molecule of water in the process. Have

Reviving the Icon
The Flinders Street Station Design Competition
The winner: HASSELL + Herzog & de Meuron
The competition:
"Focusing on the need for renovation, preservation and development, the government of the Australian State of Victoria announced a $1M international competition in November 2011, with a goal to revive the landmark site and enhance its importance as the city's gateway public space. The competition followed a two-stage process according to AIA guidelines, with the first round of design proposals submitted by mid-2012 and second round proposals due in 2013."
About Flinders Street Station:
"Since its construction over a century ago, Melbourne's Flinders Street Station has remained as an impressive example of public architecture throughout the city's history. However, the gradual deterioration of the building over the last 50 years has greatly diminished the image of the Flinders Street Station of today. Nevertheless, despite the neglect of the upkeep, the station continues to be used by more than 150,000 passengers every day, with the intersection of Swanston and Flinders Streets remaining to be the busiest intersection in Melbourne."
Article includes more pictures of the winning design as well as pictures of the six finalists' designs.

How we are working to achieve this vision
Dear Friends of Parks and Recreation,
This is to provide you some information about Mayor Greg Nickels
proposed 2004 budget for Parks and Recreation. The good news is that
in 2004 we will continue to implement the two levies approved by Seattle
voters in 1999 and 2000 - the $36 million Community Center Levy and
the $198.2 million Pro Parks Levy.
With funding from the 1999 Community Center Levy, in 2004 we will open
new or expanded community centers at High Point, Jefferson Park, the
International District/Chinatown, Sand Point Magnuson, and Yesler.
We have finished 28 of 140 Pro Parks Levy projects, including Shelterhouse
improvements, playfield renovations, development of small parks, acquisition
of new open space and neighborhood parks, path and trail improvements,
community gardens, and off-leash areas. We anticipate completing 25
more in 2004.
As Mayor Nickels announced today, we will restore Green Lake so it
can be enjoyed for recreational uses by completing a $1.5 million alum
treatment of the water, which will help keep the lake free of algae
blooms that have made the water unsafe for use much of the past two
At South Lake Union Park, $600,000 of capital funding, matched by $375,000
from the Shoreline Park Improvement Fund, will enable us to make the
Wharf at South Lake Union accessible to the public by mid-year. We will
also begin restoration of the Emma Schmitz seawall in West Seattle and
develop a neighborhood park in the 12th Avenue neighborhood in the Central
But the city is facing a $24 million shortfall, and all departments
have been asked to make cuts. Here is how we plan to make those reductions.
By making administrative reductions and finding other efficiencies,
we will receive funding to operate and maintain the new or expanded
centers and parks.
Reductions will come from delays in the opening dates for some new
facilities, reducing programs at two community center annexes,
cutting a minimum amount of targeted park and facility maintenance services,
reducing personnel and other administrative staffing, reducing the size
of the summer wading pool program, reducing the number of city funded
regattas, eliminating one planner who manages neighborhood matching
fund projects and cutting training funds.
We also anticipate increased revenue from Aquarium and swimming pool
admissions, higher event fees, and South Lake Union programs, and savings
from energy-efficient lighting at the Tennis Center and six community
I fully support the Mayors direction on the 2004 budget; he will
present the budget to the City Council at 2 p.m. Monday, September 29
in the Council Chambers.
I will be in touch.

VIDEO: iPhone Gyro Air Drums
Now, we're not claiming to be Tommy Lee or Dave Grohl here (heck, we wouldn't even suggest we were Phil Collins) but don't you need two sticks to play the drums properly?
I suppose you could, in theory, use two different iPhone 4s to get a more realistic experience with the Gyro Air Drums app but for the money that would cost, you may as well invest in an actual drum kit.
However, that little stumbling block doesn't take away from the fact that this is a very clever little app, that makes use of the iPhone 4's gyroscope and accelerometer to provide a semi-augmented reality style experience.
You can play drums on the upper and lower levels and move your drum-stick using your phone in a 300-degree angle. It's got a range of things you can hit like a snare, a high-hat and a cowbell and the kit stays solid whilst you move in real time.
Gyro Air Drums is in the App Store now, priced at £1.79 and there's also a lite version for nada if you want to try it before splashing out.

WORCESTER, Mass. – Holy Cross junior infielder Caitlin Belanger (Fall River, Mass.) has been named Patriot League Player of the Week announced today by the league. Belanger helped lead the Holy Cross softball team to three Patriot League victories over Lafayette last weekend. This is the first time that Belanger has received this honor.
Belanger batted .526 with a .789 slugging percentage in six games last week. She hit two doubles and had a grand slam to drive in eight runs. Against Lafayette, Belanger went eight for 14 with six RBI and stole four bases. Her 23 stolen bases this season set a new Holy Cross single season record and her 17 walks are tied for fifth on the single season record list. Belanger is currently in the midst of a five game hit streak.
In the pitcher's circle, Belanger picked up two Patriot League wins including a 10 inning battle in Sunday's game. In 19 innings of work last week, she recorded a 3.32 ERA and struck out 11 batters. Belanger leads the Crusaders with 11 complete games this season.
Holy Cross will host Bryant in a mid-week game on Wednesday, April 28 and then welcome Lehigh to Freshman Field on Saturday-Sunday, May 1-2 for a Patriot League four-game series.

On the 7th of November, 1861 Union forces captured Port Royal Island, the main harbor of the Sea Islands which were located off the South Carolina coast. The Confederate Fort Walker fell to the Union Navy, and the white plantation owners fled the island. The large slave population remained and the Union army allowed them to continue farming the land.

Of all the many interesting facts about the Cayman Islands National Museum, perhaps the most fascinating is that the building itself is a major artifact.
The history of the structure began in the 1830s as a one-story building for government business, constructed using traditional wattle-and-daub architecture. Since then, it has been home to a post office, library, secondary school, dancehall and courthouse, along the way adding a second-level floor.
That last incarnation led to the saying, "Walk the 12 steps," meaning a person was going up the building's external staircase to attend court. Various additions over the years led to three separate buildings, which have since been attached, and the museum officially opened in 1990.
Destruction caused by Hurricane Ivan in 2004 led to the museum shutting its doors for a number of years to enable extensive repairs and renovation, finally reopening in 2009. But out of that work an incredible piece of history was discovered.
The museum also spent time as a jail and during post-Ivan repair work graffiti written in pencil was uncovered on one of the layers of a wall of the Old Gaol. That section is now enclosed in glass but visitors will be able to see the writing of that long-ago prisoner. The rest of the jail is still being worked on and, again, visitors can marvel at the progress through a glass wall.
Before walking through the museum, take 15 minutes to view the introductory video, which is both educational and entertaining, a great start to your visit.
The actual exhibits are a diverse and absorbing mix of items detailing the cultural and natural history, and all things in between, of the Cayman Islands.
Museum director Peggy Leshikar-Denton says that anyone interested in learning a bit about these islands need look no further. "There is no better place to capture the spirit of the Cayman Islands in an hour. It's a great introduction to the people, history and art. It's a gem."
That sentiment is well supported by what's on display. Two permanent exhibits are dedicated to natural and cultural history, the former focusing on scientific studies and collections including everything from a bat cave to turtle nests, and the latter on shipbuilding, rope making and turtling. In all, there are about 9,000 artifacts in the museum's permanent collection, which are alternated in the exhibits.
The museum owes its beginnings to one man's love of all things Caymanian. Ira Thompson, who began accumulating items from all over Grand Cayman in the 1930s, provided the foundation for the museum, and the collection that bears his name contains about 1,200 pieces, which are rotated in the Cultural History Exhibit and in temporary galleries. Among the items that are displayed are a coffee mill and crank telephone from the early 1900s and a goatskin drum.
The museum's temporary exhibits change twice a year, in May and November. Slated for May 2014, to coincide with International Museum Day, the so-called Changing Gallery will feature Cayman's sporting stars, including Olympic sprinter Cydonie Mothersill and boxer Charles Whittaker.
The adjacent Children's Gallery usually complements that exhibit and will include hands-on, interactive displays.
Lastly, each Special Tribute Gallery exhibit focuses on an individual who has played a significant role in Cayman's culture and history.
Whether you are a first-time or repeat visitor to the Cayman Islands, if you haven't yet enjoyed a tour of this historical treasure, add it to your list. As Leshikar-Denton says, "Everybody who steps foot on the island should come to the museum."
Of all the many interesting facts about the Cayman Islands National Museum, perhaps the most fascinating is that the building itself is a major artifact.

After 18 cycles, Tyra Bank's America's Next Top Model is still going strong. But it appears that she doesn't think co-stars J. Alexander, Jay Manuel, and Nigel Barker — who have been on since ANTM began in 2003 — are necessary to the show's staying power. Yesterday, they were told their contracts would not be renewed for the 19th season, according to the New York Post.
Well, even if Tyra doesn't, we sure will miss these three. J. Alexander was the fabulous runway diva coach extraordinaire who helped the contestants perfect their walk on the runway while showing off his own lovely legs. For a few seasons, Miss J also held a spot at panel, where he often stole the show with some outlandish getups, until he was replaced by Andre Leon Talley in 2010. Jay Manuel served as the creative director on all photo shoots and never hesitated to offer his opinions while never mussing his perfectly coiffed, silver 'do. And they're going to need some serious male eye candy to replace "noted fashion photographer" Nigel Barker. Just who will tell the girls like it is while turning their knees to jelly with a single glare?
Let's look back at all the ways we'll miss this fashionable trio and then vote on which one you'll miss the most.

we decided to share five favorites. food. city. store. blog. and movie. a well-rounded list to give you a little glimpse at the blogger behind the blog. here's hoping you enjoy! cheers!
1. food. well, i love a lot of foods. i love to cook and rarely meet a dessert i don't like. that said, if we're going out to eat ("we" meaning my fiance, craig, and i), i love me some sushi. i've never tried to make it at home, so it has this mystical, foreign thing going on. i <3 spicy tuna.
2. city. philadelphia. hands-down. i grew up in central nj and now live in eastern pa, so philly has always been my city. my family goes into the city every year around christmas, and it's always so magical. and now, craig and i have made our own philadelphia traditions - we go in for our anniversary each year and are planning our wedding at the philadelphia bellevue hyatt for this november : )
3. store. anthropologie. if i could only shop at one store for the rest of my life...it would be anthropologie. i love their vintage-chic style and always find things i need to get whenever i walk through the door. (rewind to philly for a sec. there is a beautiful anthropologie store on rittenhouse sqaure in philadelphia. it's in a magnificent old mansion and has 4 floors of shoppers' heaven...)
|m2 photography
5. movie. growing up, my favorite movie was father of the bride (with steve martin). the family dynamic in that film reminds me so much of my own. my dad "is" steve martin, and my mom is completely diane keaton. it's really uncanny. it's one of those films i can watch over and over and never tire of...so comforting. (a few other films i adore and that you should definitely check out: love story, only you, out of africa and anything hitchcock : )

Luanda — Failure to comply with the guidelines issued by the Provincial Government of Luanda (GPL), on ban of launching fireworks without authorisation and noise pollution in some Luanda neighbourhoods during the festive season, marred the harmonious socialisation.
The information was released Wednesday by the provincial director of Culture, Manuel Sebastião.
The official stated so at the end of a meeting chaired by Luanda province's governor, Bento Bento, aimed at evaluating the functioning degree of various structures involved in a peaceful festive season.
According to Manuel Sebastião, during the festive season, especially New Year's Eve, several people launched rockets (fireworks) in unauthorised places and for long time.
They also committed sound pollution through motorcycles, especially in the Mussulo peninsula, despite appeals made ahead of this season, thus disturbing the public order and safety.
"The police are still investigating all those who broke the rules and then be taken to court," he said.

Valley City State men's basketball coach Jeff Kaminsky announced Monday that Cliff Gatonye of Kenya has signed a letter of intent to attend VCSU and play basketball for the Vikings.
Gatonye, a 6-foot, 6-inch forward and native of Nairobi, Kenya, spent last year at Dakota County Technical College in Rosemount, Minn., where he played in 27 games for the Blue Knights and averaged 6.2 points and 4.2 rebounds on 45.2 percent shooting from the field.
Hi-Liner junior Jared Lentz, representing Valley City at the Class A State Golf Tournament at Jamestown Country Club, shot a 12-over 84 on Tuesday to enter a seven-way tie for 39th entering Wednesday's Day 2.
Lentz stands tied with Bismarck Century senior Austin Schauer, Fargo Davies senior Bryan Pallen and sophomore Talon Johnson, Bismarck St. Mary's Central 7th-grader Cole Herbel, Grand Forks Red River freshman Keaton Wolf and Fargo North sophomore Tucker Lehr.
Valley City State sophomore Brady Anderson is a 2014 NAIA Baseball All-America Honorable Mention, the NAIA national office announced Monday.
A catcher, infielder and Jamestown, N.D. native, Anderson was voted Player of the Year in the North Star Athletic Association after batting .443 with 38 RBIs, 23 extra-base hits and a .678 slugging percentage.
Hi-Liner senior pitcher/first base Danica Diegel and senior catcher Dierra Diegel have received North Dakota Class A Softball All-State Team recognition, as voted upon by coaches.
Valley City put forth 11-5 Eastern Dakota Conference and 20-11 overall records to carry the No. 3 seed into Regionals, where they came just short of a second-straight State Tournament appearance with a late 2-1 Qualifier loss to No. 4 Fargo Shanley in Fargo, N.D.
Valley City entered the season ranked No. 2 in the EDC and fifth in Class A.
It took all five innings of Tuesday's late game for Valley City Babe Ruth to sweep LaMoure at Charlie Brown Field, but Bryce Nelson's walk-off single capped an 11-10 comeback after Nate Rodriguez's one-hitter in the 12-2 five-inning opener.
"Games like these make you old quick," said head coach Lance Lukes of the second game, in which Valley City gave up leads of 5-1 and 6-2.

Suhr, a 2012 Hi-Liner graduate, played the last two seasons at North Dakota State College of Science in Wahpeton, N.D.

The King's Arms overview
The King's Arms is a beautiful original black and white timbered Tudor building in the little village of Ombersley. The interior is just what you would expect and there's good beer, food and wines. So that you sorted! The kids can choose from their own menus; if small can be changed with modern changing facilities and if large can play hide and seek in the secret garden at the back. This is ... truly a pub for the whole family
Great Time

Our pub is an historic timber framed building with a large car park and a "secret garden". We welcome children (highchairs are available and can be booked) and give them colouring while they wait for their food. Children can choose from a special "Children's Menu" or most of the dishes from the Daily Menu can be cooked in a smaller size. We can reheat bottles and provide pureed vegetables for small babies. Family dogs are welcome too and although the pub has some steps there is wheelchair access. Please telephone in advance if you would like some assistance.

Great little known tip!
How to quit or kill multiple apps at once on your iPhone or iPad
Multitasking now provides full on background processing for every app — and intelligently so! Basically, iOS waits until it thinks you need something, then makes sure it's there when you do. If one app needs access to data, it organizes other apps that might need access too. This all combines to let your iPhone and iPad stay responsive, and your battery life stay long-lasting. But what happens when something goes wrong, or you decide you want to quit or kill an app and its processes? Easy! With the multitasking card view, you can close up to three apps at one!
How to close up to three apps at time on your iPhone or iPad
- Double tap the Home button to launch the fast app switcher.
- Close a single car by touching it and flicking it up and away towards the top of the screen.
- Close up to three apps at once by touching each one with a finger and flicking them all up at the same time.
It's much easier if you see it in action, so make sure you watch the video above before you give it a try. Once you do, let me know — how does it work for you?

How to quit or kill multiple apps at once on your iPhone or iPad
Try using BatterySaver. Its a nice app that tells you how much power your apps are using. Most apps dont use any power and so dont need to be shut down. The app also has a lot of other uses like showing the amount of time left to fully charge and what services are using battery such as location, wifi and bluetooth.
Agreed but i have seen problem apps in iOS 7 with background refresh that don't stop polling or get stuck. If you don't want to turn that feature off all together, some apps seem to have issues with it.
Why would that mean failure? This is either caused by 2 things: apps running out of control or the device not having enough memory. Android tends to have problems with the first, and Apple tends to have problems with the second. Rooted Android phones can, however, greenify apps, resulting in the perfect blend.
Clearly you have failed if the app crashes the computer. If it can be killed by app manager but you have to use one you failed because your normal UI should have let you kill it .
In particular the lack of a force quit option in the dock for unresponsive apps is a giant fail . I shouldn't need to run a special menu or start activity manager to kill it .
Android has made great strides in the past few years and this is no longer a problem. The only devices I've ever experienced running out of memory are my first gen iPod touch, second gen iPod touch and iPhone 3G. So in the same time period, both iOS and Android have fixed memory issues in the last several years.
Actually, there is a force quit option in the dock for unresponsive apps. Just wait until an app becomes unresponsive, and right click its icon in the dock. The quit option automatically changes to a force quit option.
Nowhere in those comments was I talking about OSX
Steve Jobs said a lot of ridiculous nonsense.
He said you'd have to "file down your fingers" if you wanted to make the original iPad smaller.
He said the original iPhone was the "perfect size".
He said the "Good artists copy, great artists steal.", then decided to sue every Android manufacturer for "stealing", whilst stealing many of Android's features.
He said "There's nothing wrong with the iPhone, you're holding it wrong." In response to the defective iPhone antenna fiasco.
And quite a bit more...
I didn't know you could do multiple apps at once! Thanks for the tip! With my big fingers, I have trouble doing 3 apps with the iphone, i'm guessing this will be much easier on the bigger screened iPad.
Excellent tip thanks
Already knew about this but it's useful for people that don't know about this. Another tip: if you are on iOS 6 you can close two apps at a time by pressing on two of the minus buttons at the same time.
Thanks a million for sharing this. I hated closing apps because I thought I was limited to one at a time. :)
Admittedly, I'm new it iOS. I've been on Android for a long time, but had to get an iPhone for work. Generally, I don't mind the iPhone, but there are so many things, simple things, it could do better. When I saw the title of this article, I thought, "Oh great! I've been wondering how to close all the apps at once. It was so easy to do in Adroid. Just click a "close all" button. Why wouldn't iOS have something like that?" Then I read the article, and it tells me to use 3 fingers to swipe away three apps at once?? And I still can't close all at once? This is why Android users laugh at iOS.
This article tells about only ios7. Read this for both ios7 and lesser.
Thanks for the tip...
eh, if you timed it right, the old way with the little red X was faster. I was excited for the new way to close apps until I saw that it's actually slower.
I still wish they would give a "Close all" option. I know this isn't an Android, But it would be a nice option for those of us who feel the itch to close out applications.
Why isn't there a simple CLOSE ALL app? I've gotten used to that with my Galaxy Note 2, and while I consider going back to Iphone with the 6 plus that was something I was looking for. Perhaps it's not a neccessary? Do the open/background apps drain a droid more???
The multiple app close tip was very useful, thanks!

The Gale House was home to the Galesburg and Knox College founder Reverend George Washington Gale and his family from 1841 to 1870. At that time, the property was known as Gales Grove and ran north to present day Grove Street.
During its 170-year history, the house has undergone a number of changes. George Adams Tryon and his wife, Julia Whiting Tryon, bought the home in 1870 from the George Washington Gale estate. George Adams Tryon expanded the home to accommodate his wife, Julia Whiting Tryon and four children.
In the late 1920's the Victorian porches across the front were converted to the smaller Greek Revival style porches. The east side of the home was converted to two apartments in the early 1940's and then back to a single family home in 1995. Through all these changes, the original Gale House remained intact and distinctly recognizable. In 1990, the house was designated as a Galesburg historic landmark.
It remained in the Tryon family until 2006, when it was purchased by Knox College through a gift from Bill and Beth Charlet Suitts of Boulder, Colorado.
The Gale House is currently available only to guests of the College. Contact Karrie Heartlein for more information. Complete this form for reservations.

I love GW1 because all the characters are my main.
I have 1 set only not runned and not every weapon - warrior was my first profession and they have a ton of weapons.
I'm not bored because opposed to gear treadmill "players" I do plan to level all the 8 professions to 80 and deck with multiple sets and then legendaries
That is work for months and months.

Personally, I wish they'd just makem all the same stats, to quite all the whining. It really doesn't effect anything in it's currently implementation (for good or bad).

No, it doesn't have.
It was planned to have - that is why certain tooltip tools in certain websites are wrong but they changed because of the outcry.
Man, stop doing wrong statements.
By the way:
New Rarity Type: Ascended
In November we'll unveil the first Ascended items. This new rarity type falls between Exotic and Legendary on the spectrum of rarity and has slightly higher stats than Exotics.
Ascended gear works a little bit differently than other gear types. The stats and functionality normally added to gear through upgrade components are actually built into Ascended items. Instead of upgrade slots, Ascended gear has Infusion slots, and rarer versions of the items also come with additional Agony Resistance built into them. Players will be able to acquire Ascended Rings in the Fractals of the Mists dungeon, and Ascended items worn on the back can be acquired through special Mystic Forge recipes.
The Future of Items Progression
This is just the beginning. In November, we're only adding the first level of Infusions and Ascended Rings and Back slots, so that leaves us a lot of room to build upon these levels of Item progression in future content.
You'll also see more Legendary items in the future and an update to our existing Legendary weapons. Legendary items were always intended to be on par with other "best-in-slot" items. So fear not, all existing Legendary weapons, which are currently on par with Exotics, will be"
In red for you.

They promised a game that wouldn't have a gear tread mill. If they continue realeasing better armor/upgrades stat wise and if you need preivous armor/upgrades to do new content then they officially added gear tread mill. Its not about how long it takes or how much better it is. Its about what game they sold us.
I've stopped playing already (as of the finding out about ascended gear). I already gave ANET $200+ (I like to gamble). If they clearify this issue then it will be good for everyone because we will know if gear treadmill is in or not. If they say say progression is content locked (meaning it has no affect on future content) thats the best of both world IMO and I will happily spend more money in the future. If gear treadmill is here to stay, then telling everyon now will prevent headache later when people lose ALL TRUST in ANET for not being clear on the subject.
EDIT: I wasn't one of the peopel who cired about not having anything to work towards after getting a full set of exotics. I was telling those people to STFU and play a different game because the game was markted as not having gear treadmills. You want something to work towards, go after dungeon armor or legendaries was my response.

Whether you call it "treadmill" or "progression", it's still the same thing. We got a screw-you answer we all expected.
And this answer yet again confirms that all modern game developers and publishers care only about money and totally disregard their fanbase. EA and BioWare are just ahead of the curve with their blatant greed and arrogance but other companies aren't far behind.
MMORPG genre is dead. Long live MMOCS (Massively Multiplayer Online Cash Shop).

Too late to cover up where this game is heading. Exactly what many were expecting.
Game was grindy anyway, grinding DEs, grinding hearts, grinding vistas - not much difference imho

Oh wow, five points, I better rush out and get some redbull. I'll need to pull several all nighters to get that stuff! Seriously dude, calm your britches. Chances are, no you wont and if you do...you'll already have it by some odd means. I'd be willing to bet that Anet will hand you an ascended ring for shits and giggles. This is no different than getting ascended in GW1. You talked to some dude in a mission and bam. Sure you had to work to get there, but it took little time/effort. The ascension was needed to fight the mursaat and it had a viable purpose. It wasn't some "you need this to compete in PvP" or "you need this to enter this zone and live" bull crap that you're probably worried about.
it took me no time at all to get exotics and will take no time to get this new gear as well. I didn't even lose sleep over that stuff. And what's so wrong about having something that's needed to fight a certain enemy. Would you fly to the middle east with a butter knife and ask to fight insurgents? No you'd probably want to bring a gun or maybe a few of them and a tank. Theres a process to purchasing a gun - getting the liscense - concealed carry - etc.
Honestly I see this as being no different from GW1 and the mursaat.

See orange. Also that if ANET doesn't use these mechanics to gate content then I'll be happy. If new content is simply made easier by gear you get in said content that doesn't futher add to your power (which would make ascended gear from FOTM no longer the best gear stat wise) then its a perfect system IMO.

10% increase per slot (and 30% in the main stat).
The ring and the back piece only is FOR NOW.
And you think the players looking for progression will besatisfied forever with ascendant?
"I was bored because I had full exotics in 1 week, but getting ascendant in 2 weeks really sacieted my desire for progression forever."
Currently playing: GW2
i just remember these GW2 people "we dont want virtual worlds " "its just a game"
If theres +100 int or wisdom items or fireballs does 10,000 damage ,who cares ? "its just a game"
who cares if i can do 10 damage and my enemy can do 50,000 damage,who cares its just a game not virtual world.
Well, until ArenaNet addresses the 'elephant in the room' this type of thread will continue to flourish.
If the whole 'cosmetic only' gear progression wasn't working, fine - just admit it. It's one thing to change the game - it's another to give a hogwash reason for it, 'Oh, people needed something to do between exotics and legendaries" - if that's all it was, then why the stats? Why create 'gated' content that can only be completed with a particular set of gear? What's the REAL reason? I have no problem with the change - I just would like to hear some actual honest answers as to why barely a couple months of the game a major philosophy was changed.
Personally, I'm fine with the changes - but these little statements 'addressing' the changes seem much more like 'PR' speak that doesn't really address anything instead of actual honesty.

If you read you'd have the answer to this. The gear will only make the new content easier. The agony condition hurts, according to Anet, and the new gear will help build an immunity to it the more of it you have. Will you still be able to do the content? yes...but it will be quite difficult.

No, the new gear will make all other content easier as well - last time I checked stats work everywhere.
You saying that in GW1 you used anything but max stats? I mean 14-21 sword is basically the same as a 15-22 sword -I only used max swords still.

Yes, It isn't huge, but they're adding it nonetheless to please those who want something higher to attain while at the same time pleasing those who don't want higher stat gear.
So yeah...your 5 points will carry over to every little bit of content. And I'm sure that extra 5 defense will keep that dragon from sitting on you.

I did read it. They didn't say that ascended gear/agony resistence wouldn't be built on in the future or be required for future content past this. If they add new content that requires the items being released in a couple days in the future, while rewarding people with items that futher make that content easier, then ANET added gear treadmill. Thats the issue, and its not made clear with their "response"
Edit: It seems you ignored when I said I told people who complined about "not having anything to work toward" to go F themselves. I played GW1 for years, same under the same name I use on this forum and in all MMOs I play. I bought GW2 because I thought it would be similar: no gear treadmill. This new update makes me think I was lied to.
