Reference needed?[edit]
'There are two types of pages in desktop publishing, electronic pages and virtual paper pages to be printed on physical paper pages. All computerized documents are technically electronic, which are limited in size only by computer memory or computer data storage space' I'm doing my dissertation on technology and the printed page, but can't seem to find any other references anywhere online to a 'virtual paper page'. Is this a genuine term? It's not referenced and for all I know could be completely made up. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 188.8.131.52 (talk) 09:42, 19 February 2013 (UTC)
More work needed[edit]
Woah. This needs much more work... Intrigue 18:34, 16 Sep 2004 (UTC)
Infography is not only Desktop Publishing, for example 3d Maya or Autocad, both brains are parts of infography but not specified related with Desktop Publishing. Even more Ascii arts is also infography.—The preceding unsigned comment was added by 18.104.22.168 (talk • contribs) 2006-03-21 21:07:32.
suggestions for improvement[edit]
This page should note that among graphic designer and other profesionals who use page layout software, "desktop publishing" is used as in a pejorative sense. Page layout is the prefered nomenclature, and denotes the more profesional software packages of InDesign and QuarkXpress. —The preceding unsigned comment was added by 126.96.36.199 (talk • contribs) 2006-06-01 07:35:15.
It would be nice to see a "List of DTP software" page, and a "Comparison of DTP software" page, in line with other software genres. Unfortunately, I know very little about the subject, so I can't do it. 18.104.22.168 10:24, 8 May 2006 (UTC)
- List of desktop publishing software is done, but it probably needs attention from an expert. Rwxrwxrwx 14:48, 8 May 2006 (UTC)
Yeah it would be nice to see a list of softwares for desktop publishing this website is stupid and not needed theres no point —Preceding unsigned comment added by 18.104.22.168 (talk) 14:39, 8 February 2008 (UTC)
Attitude regarding non-WYSIWYG tools[edit]
To me, this article seems borderline antagonistic towards non-WYSWIYG tools despite the potential benefits gained from them. For example, the inability of current WYSIWYG tools to generate HTML which properly follows the box model and separates all presentation into external CSS files.
Another such example would be LyX which employs what they refer to as a WYSIWYM (What You See Is What You Mean) interface, providing a graphical interface to LaTeX so that the user can focus on composition without the vagarities of typesetting getting in the way. (Though it's graphical, variations in text styling in WYSIWYM indicates semantic differences (eg. chapter heading) rather than presentational ones)
Ssokolow (talk) 07:46, 23 February 2008 (UTC)
- What statements in the article sound antagonistic to you? Oicumayberight (talk) 21:22, 23 February 2008 (UTC)
- Not the original author but the following statements may have been what he meant: "...occupies a substantial but shrinking niche in technical writing and textbook publication...", which - although possibly true - is uncited and looks like personal opinion. "since much software in this genre is freely available, it can be more cost-effective than the professionally-oriented DTP systems", may imply that they are still around only because they are free and if someone needs "professional" results they should go for the "professionally-oriented DTP systems". In fact, none of the advantages of TeX or other systems are mentioned (I won't repeat them here, they are mentioned on the respective pages). The entire comparison could be summed up to "DTP is WYSIWYG and interactive, the others are not but they are free".
- Moreover, there are interactive, WYSIWYG LaTeX front-ends like Bakoma or maybe Gummi (haven't used them) and other TeX editors have facilities to automate some work (e.g. entering tables, figures, cross-references, citations) so the statement "requiring the user to enter the processing program's markup language manually without a direct visualization of the finished product" looks like an exaggeration to scare people away. In fact, the users of TeX and other layout tools would say that editing the markup language is an advantage, since they are not distracted by the presentation. Xdalai (talk) 08:35, 30 March 2010 (UTC)
Distinctions between books and single page publishing[edit]
This page makes no distinction between true book creating software, like FrameMaker, and layout software. In my (biased) opinion, the phrase "Desktop Publishing" more closely describes what FrameMaker does than the function of graphic and text layout software. —Preceding unsigned comment added by 184.108.40.206 (talk) 03:31, 24 July 2008 (UTC)
- What kind of distinctions are you expecting? Are there any single page layout programs that can't be used to create books? It seems that you are talking about software features rather than software categories or skill classifications. There is no fine line here. If you are talking about database publishing, that's a separate article and a separate subject matter altogether. Oicumayberight (talk) 19:04, 15 December 2008 (UTC)
- This is a good point. I have written books in EMACS, ED, WordPerfect, PageMaker, Ventura Publisher, Microsoft Word, and FrameMaker, among other programs. While it can be done in any of them, there are features in some that are more useful for composing one-off pages, and there are others that have less emphasis on page layout features and more emphasis on indexing, footnoting, and crossreferencing. I'm not sure where or how to draw the line. Msml (talk) 06:44, 1 March 2009 (UTC)
- If the professionals who use InDesign and QuarkXpress for page design, and FrameMaker for book design, agree that their respective software tools are related but distinct enough to be treated separately, what other authority need be consulted? You could write a book(let) or create a page design in PowerPoint, but it doesn't have specialized tools for those purposes. —Preceding unsigned comment added by 22.214.171.124 (talk) 05:51, 18 April 2009 (UTC)
- The distinction is in software features, not software type. Granted, I wouldn't use FrameMaker to do a single page layout. But the main distinction between a program like FrameMaker and InDesign is the ease at which you can publish larger books with multiple simultaneous content developers vs smaller books with fewer sequential content developers. That's based on individual features that may eventually be merged in to one software or the other. There really is no "book publishing" software classification for this reason. Even Adobe Systems is positioning it as a specialized software to "publish technical documentation." This has much more to do with the type of content being published than the format in which it's published. Oicumayberight (talk) 06:20, 19 April 2009 (UTC)
Colour management[edit]
I feel this article has missed the point about desktop publishing. Especially with quotes such as this: "While desktop publishing software still provides extensive features necessary for print publishing, modern word processors now have publishing capabilities beyond those of many older DTP applications, blurring the line between word processing and desktop publishing."
Although I cannot put the words in myself, my understanding is that Desktop Publishing applications are all about publishing, and hence this means management of bleeds, colors and the print process.
for example the main reason I have to use something like scribus is that it provides colour management so that colours are accurately transferred from the electronic to the printed version.
can someone with more expertise add this type of information, and if other people agree remove the comment above which I believe is false. Rimmeraj (talk) 01:34, 16 January 2010 (UTC)
Broken Links[edit]
It looks like the link "Oxtra Publisher for Mac OS X" under "External Links" is down. —Preceding unsigned comment added by 22.214.171.124 (talk) 15:13, 16 June 2010 (UTC)
Sentence and references to first desktop publishing magazine were "reverted"[edit]
The article states "For example, .info magazinebecame the very first desktop-published, full-color, newsstand magazine in the last quarter of 1986..."
There were at least two (and possible three) magazines that were produced solely by desktop publishing techniques. Also, the reference for this statement doesn't exist (anymore).
In fact, the first magazine produced with the desktop publishing tools mentioned in the "Desktop Publishing" article -- PageMaker, and Adobe PostScript for typesetting -- was the one I published in 1985, "Desktop Publishing Magazine" -- which was acquired in 1986 and renamed Publish! magazine.
I edited this "Desktop Publishing" page to add this information and create a new page for "Desktop Publishing Magazine". I just added factual information about my magazine, with references, and didn't change anything else. However, someone removed the information (and references) that I added, with no explanation.
Here is what I added:
'Desktop Publishing magazine (ISSN 0884-0873) was founded, edited, and published by Tony Bove and Cheryl Rhodes of TUG/User Publications, Inc., of Redwood City, CA (dubbed the "dynamic duo of desktop publishing" by [[Denise Caruso]]).[1]). Its first issue, which appeared in October, 1985, was the first magazine issue entirely created and produced on a personal computer with desktop publishing software (PageMaker on a Macintosh),[2] preparing output on a prototype PostScript-driven typesetting machine from [[Mergenthaler Linotype Company]]. —Preceding unsigned comment added by Tonybove (talk • contribs) 15:34, 2 August 2010 (UTC) Tonybove (talk) 15:38, 2 August 2010 (UTC)
- It was removed because it was not neutral in tone, was added by someone with a clear conflict of interest, and because the main claim of notability (being the first magazine produced on a PC) was cited to a self published, rather than a reliable, source. - MrOllie (talk) 16:15, 2 August 2010 (UTC)
It may have been my mistake to put the "reliable" sources in the Desktop Publishing Magazine page rather than here. I think these sources are very reliable: ^ "Word of Mouth by Denise Caruso: The Dynamic Duo Publishes Again". Media Letter. Sept. 1990. Retrieved 1990-09-01. ^ "Altair Implementation in the Graphic Arts". DigiBarn Curator/DigiBarn Computer Museum. September 9th, 2009. Retrieved 2009-09-09. ^ "Personal Computers; The Certain Approach of Desktop Publishing". The New York Times. July 15, 1986. Retrieved 1986-07-15. ^ "Computer publishing's whiz kid". Folio: The Magazine for Magazine Management. February 1987. Retrieved 2010-07-17.
As the person who actually published the magazine, I feel like an intruder -- and yet, there are confusing instructions about what to do. In "Dealing with articles about yourself" it says that "Very obvious errors can be fixed quickly, including by yourself." And yet, that's not the case here.
Can I please (or can someone please) edit the article to be more accurate and include the first DTP magazine? Thanks!
Tonybove (talk) 16:40, 2 August 2010 (UTC)
- I'm sure you do think they're reliable, and that this is a 'very obvious error', but a 'very obvious error' is something like the Tony Bove article getting your birthday wrong, not that you are not personally mentioned on this article. The main thrust of the WP:COI guideline is that it is very difficult to objectively evaluate content that is related to ourselves and our works. Please do not add this content again. - MrOllie (talk) 16:45, 2 August 2010 (UTC)
So, in other words, now that I've made this mistake, I can't correct it? I can't even edit the article to add Desktop Publishing Magazine as a fact (with no mention of my name, or anyone's name, or any claim to being first)? Since it is "ancient history" for the computer industry, it's not likely that anyone else will ever edit the article, as it is rated "low importance". Oh well...
Tonybove (talk) 16:55, 2 August 2010 (UTC)
- Yes, you should not add references to yourself in other Wikipedia articles, particularly if your source for the claim of notability is a self published site such as Digibarn. However, you are right that .info magazine's claim was also not reliably sourced, so I have removed that as well. - MrOllie (talk) 17:06, 2 August 2010 (UTC)
Thanks. Tonybove (talk) 17:55, 2 August 2010 (UTC)
first desktop publishing on IBM[edit]
While the Mac programs were certainly influential, desktop publishing was done on IBM PCs even before the Macintosh was introduced. Here is The Seybold Report on Publishing Systems--the most authoritative source--on personal computer publishing programs from 1985 (vol 15, no. 2): "Bestinfo. This little company from near Philadelphia got the jump on the competition with the first WYSIWYG composition program running on a personal computer..."
And Seybold Report for February 13, 1984 (vol. 13, no. 10) says Bestinfo used this program in production in 1983, although it was not yet offered for sale then. There were also other early desktop publishing programs on the IBM PC, including Studio Software. There is no doubt that desktop publishing on the Macintosh soon surpassed that on the IBM PC, but desktop publishing actually began on the IBM platform. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 188.8.131.52 (talk) 18:03, 6 February 2012 (UTC)
The category of desktop publishing software was in existence before 1984 and it was not invented on the PC or the Mac.
I used a desktop publishing program created for the Apple II, back in 1979, 1980 or 1981. Its name was Gutenberg. This was a WYSIWYG editor that allowed creation of complex equations and other complex graphic elements and integration of them with text. Document length was limited only by available storage.
When I worked at WordStar (then called MicroPro) in 1983, we were well aware of desktop publishing software. We saw it as a different entity from our word processing software. The exemplar, for us, ran on the Xerox STAR (which we had sometimes used to lay out manuals for our products). The STAR came out, I believe, in 1981. CemKaner (talk) 01:21, 23 January 2013 (UTC)
'Desktop publishing' and TeX[edit]
I'm not sure early versions of TeX are relevant to 'desktop publishing'. They ran on minicomputers (initially the enormous DEC PDP-10), not desktop PCs. Moreover, if typesetting systems based on minicomputers are considered 'desktop publishing', then the concept goes back to the minicomputer-based 'runoff' derivatives of the late 1960s. By that standard, it arguably goes back even further, to Saltzer's original TYPSET/RUNOFF software for mainframes, written in 1964. Faagel (talk) 10:52, 4 September 2012 (UTC)
"Normal" desktop publishing vs. professional desktop publishing?[edit]
The article sometimes just uses "desktop publishing", and sometimes "professional desktop publishing", which gives me the impression that it separates between the two. Does it do that intentionally?
It also seems to suggest that normal desktop publishing would normally be less powerful that traditional typography and printing, as it says that "when used skillfully, desktop publishing software can produce printed literature with attractive layouts and typographic quality comparable to traditional typography and printing". Is it the case that normal desktop publishing is normally less powerful? —Kri (talk) 11:28, 31 January 2013 (UTC)
Article protection needed[edit]
This article was vandalized on 4 September 2012 and NO ONE CAUGHT IT for two-and-a-half years. Any available admin, please add indefinite protection on this article. Thanks. --Coolcaesar (talk) 14:23, 15 May 2015 (UTC)

Product Details
Disposable Fly Trap
The RESCUE!® Disposable Fly Trap catches common nuisance or filth flies -- hundreds of the most prevalent species including house flies, false stable flies, blow flies, blue and green bottle flies, flesh flies, face flies and many others.
Inside the RESCUE!® Disposable Fly Trap is a bait that flies find irresistible. This attractant is comprised of food and feed ingredients, and other food flavorings generally recognized as safe. The attractant dissolves and activates when water is added to the bag. Lured by the scent, flies enter the trap through the yellow top cap and drown in the water.
Powder attractant is contained within the trap itself
Attractant dissolves and activates quickly when water is added to the bag
Trap's design eliminates touching the bait or the flies
Completely disposable
Catches up to 20,000 flies (yes, we counted them all!)
Once lured inside the trap, the flies cannot escape and drown in the water added to the bag.
Where and How To Use
The RESCUE!® Disposable Fly Trap is intended for use outdoors. It will help control the fly population outside before it ever becomes a nuisance inside. We recommend hanging it around 20 feet away from any outdoor living spaces.Suggested locations for the trap include:
- Near a dog run or kennel
- In a barn with good air ventilation
- Around poultry, hogs, sheep, dairy and beef cattle areas
- Near garbage bins or dumpsters
- Near a compost pile
- Near a campsite
For those areas with heavy fly concentrations, such as farms and ranches, we created the RESCUE!® Big Bag Fly Trap.
The RESCUE!® Disposable Fly Trap can be used whenever hot, humid conditions or the presence of animals or garbage cause an outdoor fly problem.
What People Are Saying
I love this product!! I have swarms of flies all summer long and can't enjoy my porch....I tried many ways to curb problem. Then I found this at Coles...I bought 2 of them and WOW they are really catching those dirty litttle buggers...I'm sending my husband down to pick up some more...awesome product that really works!!!!!
Hands down the best way to get rid of flies I have ever used. I placed it around the corner from my patio and the bag started filling with flies. By the time I took the bag down, it was completely full of flies. I have used the bag again and recommend it to my customers. I work in a hardware store and have had nothing but postive responses from my customers.
I read the reviews already up here and decided to try it myself. I put one up, and when I saw all the flies that were going in there, I went and bought 4 more. Of course, I only needed one of them because they hold so many. I'll use the rest next year. For more than 2 weeks, I watched flies go in there, buzz around for a while, and die. I can't believe they can't find their way out, but they can't. No flies came in my house anymore after I put that trap up! What a relief! I also tried a competitor's fly strips. The only thing that caught was a moth. I don't want to trap moths. Moths aren't particularly pretty, but they don't bite and they don't make that annoying buzzing noise when they fly. I only want to trap flies & mosquitoes. I also (along with another reviewer) hope you make one for mosquitoes. I also tell everyone I know about these traps. thanx
I don't remember exactly how much I paid for this trap, but now that I've seen it work, it is worth every penny and more.
Not only does this seem to work on flies, I used to have a significant problem with gnats too (I don't know what specific species or anything...the little black ones that constantly fly around your face/eyes/ears). However, now that I hung ONE of your traps, I can now enjoy my yard...thank you, thank you, thank you.
I just hung up the trap last night and this morning it is so loaded with the dirty little bugs. Yuck....can't stand flies, any other insect I can deal with , but a fly grosses me out. Well, they are fighting to get in and it is amazing to watch..... not one fly around my trash bins. Great Product!!! Thank You, Thank You.
This thing works awesome. Catches flies immediately and fills quickly.Far better than chemical sprays.
We live near the delaware bay where you can't even go out when the greenheads are biting but they are going into this trap. Even the large black greenhead fly traps dont get this many flies. Thankyou for this product. Can you make a bigger one? This little one fills up too fast.
I never saw anything like this trap!!! We laughed when we read "holds 20,000 flies". We filled it in less than a week. Just put up our second trap. We're not laughing now. I taped off 2 of the 3 entrance sections. That kept the smell down. The flies actually were fighting to be the first to die. I took down the fly paper strip in the garage that had about 5 flies on it. What a joke compared to your trap. I hope you're working on a mosquito trap.

From Wikiquote
Cuba, also known as the Republic of Cuba, is a country that consists of the island of Cuba (the largest of the Greater Antilles), the Isle of Youth and adjacent small islands. Cuba is located in the northern Caribbean at the confluence of the Caribbean Sea, the Gulf of Mexico and the Atlantic Ocean. Cuba is south of the eastern United States and the Bahamas, west of the Turks and Caicos Islands and Haiti and east of Mexico. The Cayman Islands and Jamaica are to the south.
- If an apple, severed by the tempest from its native tree, cannot choose but fall to the ground, Cuba, forcibly disjoined from its unnatural connexion with Spain, and incapable of self-support, can only gravitate towards the North American Union.
- John Quincy Adams, Letter to Hugh Nelson (28 April 1823) included in Message from the President of the United States in Reference to the Island of Cuba (1852); paraphrased by several other American political commentators
- If Cuba and Puerto Rico are two wings of the same bird—why aren't those two wings flying? Because Cuba and Puerto Rico are not talking. That's why neither Cuba nor Puerto Rico is able to fly. Why? Because Puerto Rico is one wing of a bird that has two wings—and the other wing is Cuba—and those two wings don't belong to the same bird anymore.
- Giannina Braschi, "United States of Banana", 2011.
- Warfare is a means and not an end. Warfare is a tool of revolutionaries. The important thing is the revolution. The important thing is the revolutionary cause, revolutionary ideas, revolutionary objectives, revolutionary sentiments, revolutionary virtues!
- Fidel Castro, Speech at Ernesto "Che" Guevara's memorial service on October 18, 1967
- This country … abounds in that Cuba is a heaven in the spiritual sense of the word, and we prefer to die in heaven than serve in hell.
- Fidel Castro, speech at the First World Congress on Literacy (2 February 2005) paraphrasing John Milton's Paradise Lost; reprinted in Granma
- Cuba is ninety miles across the Florida Straits and was increasingly integrated in the American market for a hundred years. Then Castro severed economic and commercial ties completely and shifted the entire economy toward the Soviet Union. That was insane. Then he tried to forge cultural ties with the Soviet Union and force Cubans to learn Russian. It was a crazy project and it ruined the country.

- The existence of African slavery in Cuba is a principal cause of the lamentable condition of the island.

- A few moments ago, the body was treated to a report from the senator from Iowa about his recent trip to Cuba. Sounded like he had a wonderful trip visiting, what he described as, a real paradise. He bragged about a number of things that he learned on his trip to Cuba that I'd like to address briefly. He bragged about their health care system, medical school is free, doctors are free, clinics are free, their infant mortality rate may be even lower than ours. I wonder if the senator, however, was informed, number one, that the infant mortality rate of Cuba is completely calculated on figures provided by the Cuban government. And, by the way, totalitarian communist regimes don't have the best history of accurately reporting things. I wonder if he was informed that before Castro, Cuba, by the way, was 13th in the whole world in infant mortality. I wonder if the government officials who hosted him informed him that in Cuba there are instances reported, including by defectors, that if a child only lives a few hours after birth, they're not counted as a person who ever lived and therefore don't count against the mortality rate.

Hello space adventurer, I'm back, and I believe it is already time for another report for the Questverse project =)
Posted by Tsukiarts on Jul 4th, 2014
Hello space adventurer, you may be wondering where in the universe I had been until now, well, I have been at another country state for family reasons for nearly 1 month, and yes, right after the previous problem. I should get back to my home state very soon.
But notice I have been silently posting progress images and videos(although at a slower pace) regularly, as I always do, first smaller updates, then a news article.
Another step for a finished trailer was done, which was planning the campaign setup scene and of course executing it, very soon I opted for a "warp speed" animated background and adjusting it to not bring too much attention from the menu itself.
I also started another trailer step, planning the spaceship customization scene for the nightkin race. I too had to experiment a bit with the colors, but I achieved something which does not took too much attention from the test spaceship itself.
It will take more planning for the menu itself for customizing the starship, like how the main options will be arranged, sub-options hierarchy tree and such.
The current missing trailer pieces are(still plenty to do):
I have been wanting to include such a faction for a long time, and now it is real, a "beast faction"; there you can combine different animal parts to create your humanoid beast alter ego.
But on the other side, although the votation results for the spider centaur nightkin won with 2 two favorable votes, it did shown which it would not be so interesting having them on a semi sci-fi setting game, Not only by watchers opinion, but I also though about the issues a quite big lower half would cause, and the issues of combining insect and humanoid. I may still make a "insect faction" with a better combination of insect and humanoid parts, but don't count on it.
It is not essential to the trailer, but for the game itself; I already made the male version for the psionic nightkin class.
Talking of which, I said previously I expected to "hopefully have a game demo after I complete the trailer", well, now it is not "hopefully", I will do so to have an already working game when in the future I attempt to earn some well deserved money for the project, because that way I will have to deal with less risk factors to deliver a complete game, it will also help a lot in showcasing the game as well together with a good trailer.
I'm also interested in making a veeery different thing for the gender setup of your character, why not a third gender option? There is a public for that I assure you, but only time will tell me how many, like it did for the defunct "spider faction".
Thanks for your visit space adventurer! If you liked this project you can help make it happen by:
Hello Hakumen,
Well, the spider faction will no longer exist, so this combination will not be possible.

Exclusive Guest Playlist // Kevin Devine
Ahead of his forthcoming UK tour supporting his latest album, Between the Concrete & Clouds, Kevin Devine has put together a killer Spotify playlist to soundtrack your evening.
Before we get to the playlist, make sure you catch him at the following dates this month:
- 21.02 - Kingston The Cricketers
- 23.02 - Manchester Night & Day
- 24.02 - Southampton Joiners
- 25.02 - Bristol Thekla
- 26.02 - Oxford Jericho Tavern
- 27.02 - London Borderline
- 28.02 - Leeds Brudenell Social Club
- 29.02 - Glasgow King Tuts
Our friends over at DIY are putting on a special Kevin Devine acoustic show show between the Kingston and Manchester dates, so make sure you enter their competition to win tickets here.
The common theme stringing these songs together is that they're honest. Not "authentic" or "truthful," both of which are subjective and kind of arbitrary terms, informed by preference and taste and context and personal experience. Honest means something else, something felt, something pure in expression and execution. These songs span genres and generations, but they are all bereft of bullshit. They're all honest, and real recognizes real. Enjoy.
You can listen to the playlist by clicking here.

MYTHBUSTERS 10th Anniversary Season

Re: MYTHBUSTERS 10th Anniversary Season
Trekker4747 wrote:
I've a question going back to last week with the tauntaun/Hoth "myth." One thing I got to wondering is even putting Luke in the tauntaun was even needed? Would he have survived on his own laying in the snow/out in the open for the time it took Han to build the shelter? In the test itself it seems the tauntaun didn't loose much heat itself (and remember it wasn't plumbed into the heart machine so not generating heat anymore.)
First off, again, Luke had already been out in the cold for some time and was already suffering from hypothermia. (
, hyp
thermia means excessively
body temperature. The Ancient Greeks played a nasty practical joke on us by using almost identical prefixes for "above" (hyper-) and "below" (hypo-), so it's important to keep careful track of the distinction, just to spite those lousy Ancient Greeks.) The tauntaun's body was several degrees warmer than Luke to start with, since it was killed mere moments before Luke was placed into it. That's important because Luke was already too cold, so bringing him into contact with the Tauntaun's warmer body would've helped warm him back up somewhat, which in and of itself would've given him more time to survive than if he'd just been left there.
Second, the tauntaun was considerably larger and more massive than Luke, and thus it would have lost heat more slowly than Luke would even if all else were equal. Third, as stated in the episode, it was adapted for Arctic conditions and its anatomy was designed for heat retention, with a thick layer of blubber and a thick fur coat. Granted, Luke's Arctic gear probably insulated him a fair amount too, but the gear
the blubber and fur would certainly have provided better insulation than the gear alone.
During the preview montage last week when we saw the "moonshine" clip I guess the nerd in me was hoping for another Dukes of Hazzard "myth"/test.
Yeah. If you're going to make a fictional show about backwoods moonshiners running from the law, then a) admit that it's fictional, b) have Waylon Jennings narrate it, and c) put Catherine Bach in it.
I agree, it's not a show they should be cross-promoting considering what the show is about and that it's a total fabrication but it could be Mythbusters have to do it per their contract with Discovery.
All the more reason they should find another network/production partner. They no longer fit in on Discovery.
Oh, and I agree with
-- the "tweets" were distracting and almost entirely pointless.

Grain, Soybeans Surge on Adverse Weather From U.S. to Europe
May 18 (Bloomberg) -- Corn futures rose the most in six weeks, wheat had the biggest gain in two months, and soybean and rice prices surged as adverse weather from North Dakota to Louisiana to Europe threatened to erode crop production.
In the U.S., corn planting was 63 percent complete as of May 15, down from the 75 percent average in the past five years, as soggy fields hindered fieldwork, mostly east of the Mississippi River and in northern states, government data show. Spring-wheat, soybean and rice sowing also were behind the pace of recent years. The Ohio Valley and North Dakota will see more rain this week, AccuWeather Inc. said.
"The weather looks to be a little more threatening on planting progress," said Mark Schultz, the chief analyst at Northstar Commodity Investment Co. in Minneapolis. "Western Minnesota, South Dakota and North Dakota could start seeing clouding conditions today, and rain starting as early as tonight and into tomorrow."
Corn futures for July delivery climbed 29.5 cents, or 4.1 percent, to settle at $7.4975 a bushel at 1:15 p.m. on the Chicago Board of Trade. Earlier, the price rose by the exchange limit of 30 cents. The grain has more than doubled in the past year on tightening global supplies and increasing demand from ethanol producers and livestock farmers.
The U.S. is the world's leading exporter of corn, soybeans and wheat and the third-largest rice shipper.
Adverse Weather
Wheat futures for July delivery surged 53 cents, or 6.9 percent, to $8.17 a bushel in Chicago, the biggest jump since March 17. The price has climbed 75 percent in the past year as drought slashed crops in Russia and threatened production in the U.S. Great Plains.
Wheat futures in Minneapolis rose 6.4 percent, and prices in Paris gained 4.6 percent.
Europe's crop, making up a fifth of global output, is under threat in the U.K., France and Germany from the driest growing conditions in at least 36 years. France, the world's second-largest exporter, may produce 12 percent less this year than a year earlier, Agritel, a Paris-based farm adviser, said.
"There's fear of what the actual world situation of wheat is going to be, and what the actual supply is," said Dennis Delaughter, the owner of Progressive Farm Marketing Inc. in Edna, Texas. "Everyone has been talking about the dry situation on the EU side."
In the U.S., 36 percent of spring-wheat crops had been planted as of May 15, compared with the average of 76 percent for the previous five years, according to the Department of Agriculture. Wet weather is delaying fieldwork in Manitoba and Saskatchewan, the Canadian Wheat Board said today.
Soybean futures for July delivery rose 38.5 cents, or 2.9 percent, to $13.795 a bushel on the CBOT, the biggest gain this month. The oilseed has climbed 47 percent in the past 12 months.
Mississippi Floods
Rice futures for July delivery jumped by the exchange limit of 50 cents, or 3.5 percent, to $14.89 per 100 pounds, the largest increase since April 25. The price has gained 6.7 percent in the past week.
Flooding along the Mississippi River may cut planting in Mississippi and Arkansas, the biggest U.S. grower, by 100,000 to 300,000 acres, Delaughter said. The USDA already has forecast that the nation's output will decline 10 percent this year to 6.77 million metric tons from a year earlier.
"No doubt we'll see a lower supply than what the USDA had on its last supply-and-demand report," Delaughter said. "We obviously have a serious problem."
Corn is the biggest U.S. crop, valued at $66.7 billion in 2010, followed by soybeans at $38.9 billion, government figures show. Wheat was fourth at $13 billion, behind hay.

Archive for the 'Lullaby' Category
New York artist Andrew Levitas was a teenager when his father was diagnosed with cancer. And for the next decade, Levitas watched as his father fought the disease.
"He was an incredibly courageous guy," said Levitas, 37. "We learned so much about being a strong and compassionate person and to put others first and accept your lot in life."
But there came a point where his father knew he would never be free of the disease. He was in pain and worn out. He decided, Levitas said, "enough is enough." He gathered his family to tell them he was pulling the plug on the machines and medications that were keeping him alive.
"I think in an incredibly beautiful and scary way, he gave up his own death for us," Levitas said. "He may have chosen to have gone peacefully off and have people cry over him. But he used it as an opportunity to push buttons and for us to reconnect to each other. Rather than making it about him, he made it about us."
His father's decision to end his life was the inspiration for Levitas' feature directorial debut, "Lullaby," which opens June 13 and is available on VOD and iTunes.
Garrett Hedlund ("Tron: Legacy," "Inside Llewyn Davis") plays Jonathan, an unsuccessful musician estranged from his family. He arrives home after a long absence to learn that his father, Robert (Richard Jenkins), has decided to take himself off a life support system.
Interview with Andrew Levitas:
JJ: What was the biggest hurdle you had to overcome as a first-time director?
AL: Getting the finances together to make a film as ambitious and challenging as Lullaby. After that I was so incredibly blessed to have the absolute best artists in front and behind the camera.
JJ: What was your most memorable off-screen moment with the cast?
AL: I had held it together the entire shoot but after we wrapped Robert's (Richard Jenkins) death scene, I quietly slipped away from set and completely broke down. I thought I was alone, but when I looked up Garrett, Terrence and the rest of the cast were there with open arms to pick me up. They had followed me out, knowing too well what I was going through… I will never forget the love and compassion they shared with me in those moments.
JJ: What was your favorite lullaby as a kid and why?
AL: Brahms Lullaby. It set the table for my musical tastes.
Beneath the cut are some reviews that have come out from various sources.

It gives me immense pleasure to write this testimonial for you Ashwinee Satwe. You helped me throughout my admission process and not to forget the tedious task of going through so many universities throughout the world. You helped me choose the best course from all the possible available options and for this I will forever be grateful to you. From hunting down the best universities and colleges to my admission process you have always given your best. You were so patient with me even when I was almost taking up all your day for my doubt clearing sessions. You were there for me not only during your office hours, but any time I called you, be it night or early morning. You assured me everything will work out in time for my November intake, when I was stressed out and worried that it wouldn't. It was your effort and hard work due to which I could get my visa and all the documentation done on time. You also helped me fill out details for my scholarship form regarding funding and helped me fill the right details which played a vital role for my scholarship award. I was very happy to have you as my counsellor. You are the best. I will surely recommend you and Global Opportunities without any hesitation to all my friends who are planning to study abroad. Wish u all the very best for your future. You deserve the best. Stay in touch.
Lots of love,
Mehareen Fathima Nishandar

Women's Pretty In Paisleys Nightgown 10 10
love it ! Such a NICE nightgown; cool, lightweight, easy care. Would like another one... June 29, 2015
Great lightweight dress Using this dress for in the evening around the house. Living in the midwest the heat and humidity are high and yet the dress is very lightweight and cool. Nice product. June 24, 2015
Comfort in Spades Having reached a certain age, I have issues sleeping well through the night. I swear, on my life, that this nightgown has magic powers. I slept, through the night on its first wearing. It is light as a feather and nowhere near as scratchy as I anticipated for a woven nightgown. I wish I had an entire wardrobe of these. Oh, and the material is gorgeous, colors are vibrant and the pattern very whimsical. Buy one. Now!! June 15, 2015
I can't say enough about this beauty! I am a nightgown fanatic! Live in them night & day, inside & outside the house. I clean in them, hang the wash out in them, garden in them, just whatever! I like being cool & comfortable & the clothes these days do not provide that comfort. I perspire profusely from the medications I'm on, so it is important that my nightgowns serve the purpose of keeping me cool & comfortable. This beauty here I can't say enough about. As soon as I opened the package I immediately fell in love with it. The one I received, the colors are much brighter than the picture but I'm sure that each one is probably different. It is soft as butter & light as a feather. It will work well when the heat & humidity creep in here very soon. I love this one so much I will be ordering another one exactly like it. I am 5"7, 225 lbs., big busted, very curvy. I purchased the 2X but mind you, I like my gowns a tad big. The length hits right about mid calf on me. I could have very easily worn the 1X but with this being 100% cotton, I wouldn't even take the chance of it getting in the dryer accidentally & then not being able to wear it ever again. Although I wash all of my gowns in cold water or by hand & if they go into the dryer, it is for a very short, period of time. But mistakes do happen. That being said, the only part that is really noticeable of being a bit too big are the underarms, but for me that is not a problem. Make sure to go by the size chart with each gown. I just can't say enough about this gown. I just love it! April 7, 2015
Paisley nightgown The 100% cotton fabric is so soft and I adore the colorful paisley design. I now have two of these gowns as I wear cotton gowns all year long. May have to order another one before too long. December 1, 2014
This gown is very cool This nightgown is very cool and pretty. I received this and the islander on the same day, also 2 henley short night shirts. This one is my immediate favorite. I would have given it 5 stars but, my daughter thought it was too sheer to walk outside in. Still, I think I could sit outside with a cup of tea, and read my Vermont Country Catalog. July 27, 2014
What a lovely, light & comfortable summer treat! This and the islander nightgown both arrived the same day...a friend was over when the packages came. she fell in love with both of them for their fun colors, soft materials and easy style~which is why I ordered them. she went home with the catalog and my caution not to wear them at the same time! May 28, 2014
So Light and Airy! I loved the print when I saw this but it doesn't compare to how light and comfortable it is to wear! It's going to be so cool this summer in the heat- I'm very glad I got it. Don't worry about shrinkage-you don't have to order up a size. Love it! April 8, 2014

I'm just a kid without a care in the world all us spin
I'm originally from Florida but moved to the city 7 years ago. I think that makes me an official New Yorker by now... I love being outdoors and am not afraid of the wilderness. My motto is just to have a good time where ever you are.. I'm very close with my family and speak to them multiple times a day, even if its just for a second. I love to go out and try new things. On the weekends I'm basically always out of my apartment either running, perhaps drinking, going out to dinner, or at a concert with my friends. I enjoy people who can create their own fun, are friendly/inviting, and interesting.

For local and not so local fun times i like mulberry project, randolph beer, Maison premiere, Spotted Pig. If I feel adventurous I like to go hiking in break neck or, in winter, skiing in Vermont.
Columbia University, New York, NY
Love music. Some of my favorite bands are the kills, ezra furman & the harpoons, the doors, explosions in the sky, pretty lights..too many to name, really. TV shows vary- i like anything on investigation discovery and i'm into science shows.
I like to run, go to concerts, go out with my friends, try new restaurants. I love going to places that teach me more about the things I like- ex. good coffee shops, strange art shows, specialty beer joints, or mixology bars.
The Great Night.. The Dog Stars.. John Dies at the End / This Book is full of spiders.. Mr. Penumbra's 24 hr bookstore.. Not a huge reader, but I like to keep busy on the subway. I like strange, light hearted books the best.
