Video Game: Romancing SaGa 2
"This is the Legend of the Seven Heroes...
Once, they subdued countless hordes of demons, and saved the world...
And then vanished from it...
Kujinshi... Subier... Dantarg... Noel...
Bokuohn... Rocbouquet... Wagnas...
And one day, so they say, they will return to save the world again..."Long after the people were scattered across the world, they told the legend, and were thankful for their salvation...However, as peace and prosperity came, the legend was forgotten...The world of man was once again prosperous. The peaceful times that brought stability to the nations came to an end. An era of division and war began...And the names of the Seven were spoken once more......and then... they came......so they say....Romancing SaGa 2 is the fifth game in the SaGa series, released only in Japan by Squaresoft. It does not focus on just one character, but the lineage of an empire.
Once, they subdued countless hordes of demons, and saved the world...

And one day, so they say, they will return to save the world again..."Long after the people were scattered across the world, they told the legend, and were thankful for their salvation...However, as peace and prosperity came, the legend was forgotten...The world of man was once again prosperous. The peaceful times that brought stability to the nations came to an end. An era of division and war began...And the names of the Seven were spoken once more......and then... they came......so they say....Romancing SaGa 2 is the fifth game in the SaGa series, released only in Japan by Squaresoft. It does not focus on just one character, but the lineage of an empire.
Romancing SaGa 2 provides examples of:
- Action Girl: Lots of them.
- Actually a Doombot: The Seven Heroes you fought through the game were only copies sent by the original. This is why you eventually fought Kujinshi a second time. To end things once and for all, you have to find and destroy their original body.
- Artifact of Doom: The Demonstone Ring; it negates status ailments, but you must sleep in the Emperor's Bed otherwise you lose Life Points at an inn, and it can't be unequipped.
- Artificial Gill: The Fishman Potion. Que the annoying Fetch Quest. But as a benefit, you unlock the Nereid Class
- Back from the Dead: Kujinshi and the Hive Queen who receive massive upgrades.
- Badass
- Bag of Spilling: Subverted, all the items you are equipped with are sent directly back to storage after completing each generation. It's still annoying to reequip the characters you do have though.
- Battleship Raid: (A Land Battleship!)
- Because Destiny Says So: It was first shirked off by Emperor Leon until his eldest son was killed by Kujinshi.
- Big Bad: Wagnas is the Leader of the Seven Heroes. Also, he's also the most difficult.
- Big Creepy-Crawlies: The termites complete with Hive Queen in which you have to fight twice by the way.
- Bonus Boss: Victor and the Dread Queen (Stronger Hive Queen) only in the Updated Re-release on i-mode
- Charm Person: Rocbouquet's Temptation ability charms all males in the party; and there are other techniques as well that can charm allies.
- The Chessmaster: (Bokuohn; as he commands a large number of the monsters under the command of the Seven Heroes)
- Chosen One
- Clingy Costume: (Subverted) The Iron Will, which can negate mental ailments such as charm but can't be unequipped if gotten through cheats. Some Classes have a permanent 4th item which cannot be removed either
- Combat Tentacles: One of the abilities Subier has is called Tentacles; and does it hurt!
- Cool Sword: Moonlight Sword has a healing technique built into it in addition to Moonshades, which shoots out frigid Blue Skulls at the enemy.
- Elemental Powers: You cannot have spells of opposite elements, though.
- The Empire: You are the ruler this time around!
- Evil Genius: Bokhohn basically weaseled his way into the group. The man is extremely crafty and an amazing politician.
- Face-Heel Turn: Noel, if you kill Rocbouquet after making peace.
- Fallen Heroes: And there are seven of them. They were betrayed by the people they saved and cast into Hell through dimensional magic.
- Flaming Sword: (Providence Cut Technique)
- Game-Favored Gender: The Final Empress as she will be immune to Rocbouquet's Temptation in the final battle, she also has the Moonlight Sword as the default weapon.
- The Amazon class can be recruited if only you're a woman, since they don't even allow men in their village.
- The Emperor, on the other hand, has nearly twice as much LP as the Empress. 19 as opposed to 10, in a game where LP rarely goes near 20 making him a far more durable combatant for the vast majority of the combat. He also has the Day Sword.
- Giant Space Flea from Nowhere: Most of the Seven Heroes show up in quests that tie back into their plans and you can go in expecting to fight them. Dantarg is the exception, however, pretty much showing up to fight you without much buildup or prior warning.
- There is a pretty good reason for that though. Unlike the other heroes, Dantarg isn't really interested in fighting the Empire and instead is on a power trip to absorb monsters to strengthen himself. Where do you meet him? Why, in caves full of monsters!
- Hard Levels, Easy Bosses: Enemy grunts scale up as your characters gain health and skill with weapons. Bosses, however, don't. Not to say that the game is devoid of hard bosses though, it's just you will sometimes end up fighting grunts far more dangerous.
- The Seven Heroes however are the exception, they do become stronger as you level up, the only one who doesn't is Subier, he is upgraded only if you kill Master of Ocean beforehand. Dantarg has 4 forms depending on your stats.
- Hello, Insert Name Here (Subverted) Will only appear in Final Generation
- Horrible Judge of Character: Strange thing is that Noel does not hate Kujinshi at all and STILL sees potential in him
- High-Altitude Battle: Hakuro Castle; AFTER the inner sanctum of the castle is ripped straight out of the ground!
- How We Got Here: The Emperor you chose at the start of the game is at the bar where the Bard retells the story of the Empire.
- Idea Bulb: This is the game in the SaGa series that started the system of learning techniques and evasions during battle.
- Jungle Princess: Rocbouquet.
- Life Energy: (LP)
- Lost Forever: Coppelia, Mountain Monk if you kill the monster in control of a certain cave, City Thief if you destroy the Canal fortress Gate, Grimoire for Shadow Magic or being able to recruit Salamander depending on what action you take during the second Komulune Island event, Iris; if you use the Helicopter to reach Wagnas.
- Global Currency: Crowns.
- Musicalis Interruptus: Dungeon or area music would stop and change to boss music at a certain part of the Dialogue with bosses or the Seven Heroes.
- No Export for You: SaGa is fairly good at getting across the pond, but this game never made it. Recently rereleased on the Virtual Console in Japan, but there's no word on a translation. A Fan Translation by Aeon Genesis was in the works, but never made it out of Development Hell.
- No-Gear Level: If you choose to sneak aboard Bokuohn's landship by purposely being abducted That being said, characters with Stuck Items keep them, making characters like the Molemen a good option for that mission.
- Non-Human Sidekick: They can even be the Emperor once they are recruitable. They also fall under the tropes of One-Gender Race and Elemental Embodiment.
- Mole Men
- Merfolk: The Nereids
- Salamander
- Harping on About Harpies: The Irises
- Outside-Context Villain: The Hive Queen. Whereas most of the large-scale villainy can be attributed to either the Seven Heroes or someone working under them, the Hive Queen is an entirely separate and destructive force. And in fact, she comes further in destroying Avalon than anyone else, seeing as how she pulls an All Your Base Are Belong to Us on you near the end.
- Our Mermaids Are Different: And how!
- Palette Swap: Every recruit-able character and emperors except Leon, Gellard, Last Emperor/Empress, and a few others...
- Precursors: The Ancients were afraid of death and hated fighting; they had a longer lifespan that modern man, after the Seven Heroes saved the world; they were still fearful of death, they used a dimensional device or magic to escape to another dimension.
- Ruins for Ruins' Sake: 3 of them; all sidequests.
- Samurai: East Guard.
- Sequential Boss
- Shout-Out: The names of one particular group (the Seven Heroes) are actually anagrams of stops in train lines in Japan. Also, the music from the Game Boy SaGa games is used in one scenario.
- Sixth Ranger: Kujinshi was the last person to join the group and is pretty much hated even within the group, because of his ill-manners. Apparently, that's the reason why the player fights him in the very beginning, because Wagnas and Co uses him as a meat-shield.
- The Strategist
- Supporting Leader: Noel is Wagnas' best friend and the one whom organizes the group. For instance, he recruited Dantag and Kujinshi. Considering he is the most normal one of the group, this should not be overly surprising
- Sword Fight: A one on one battle with Sekishusei; Retainer to Lord Ato; Ruler of the Eastern Lands.
- Victor in the Mobile Remake has this with the Last Emperor
- Take Up My Sword: Leon to Gellard.
- Also can happen in later generations if you get a Total Party Kill.
- Thanatos Gambit: To allow Kujinshi to be defeated, the first emperor allowed him to use Soul Steal on him so that he could learn the secrets of this attack and then by mean of the transmission magic transmit it to his son Gellard.
- Thieves' Guild: Using the empires' own graveyard as their base of operations
- Time Skip: From less than a year to 250 years depending on how many enemies you killed.
- Took a Level in Badass: Gellard, after his father's death by Kujinshi.
- Every person ascending to become Emperor or Empress gets this since it removes any Crippling Overspecialization their initial class would have had (a Squishy Wizard receives more health and proficiency in previous weapons, a Bare-Fisted Monk can handle weapons and use magic, etc.)
- Trojan Horse: The only way to sneak aboard Bokuohn's Land battleship; creating a fake one to draw the enemies away from the real one.
- Warrior Prince: You are the Emperor who has to save the world.
- Badass Princess: If you're female.
- Updated Re-release: For the Wii's virtual console and the i-mode phone. Includes new dungeons and bosses
- What the Hell, Hero?: To get the Dark Magic, you must allow the towns of Zemio and Tsukijima to burn. This however causes the Emperor of that time period to abdicate the throne.
- Wutai: The entire Eastern lands.

Quoting mattiehatter:
It's going to take a lot to get the black out.
As a teen i bleached my hair and dyed it purple, blue green, you name it. I would ground my child for being sneaky but not for dying hair. Hair will grow back ( in most cases) she will just look a little crazy when she decides to let it grow out, or bleach it back.
Be thankful it was just hair and she didnt go get i love < insert some boys name> tatood above her butt.

Anyone into small, sexy women will surely rush straight to Tiny4K and let out a little squeal of joy. After all, adult websites boasting 4K Ultra-HD videos aren't yet that commonplace, making this fairly new site from the makers of Pure Mature and Passion HD a real draw! Promising the tiniest girls, biggest dicks, and most detailed videos in all of hardcore and delivering a new dose of puny-pussy-pounding every Thursday, Tiny4K is as hard to resist as its diminutive stars.
"Erotic entertainment" can often lead to a softcore movie that plays more like a chick flick than a porno. So why would AVN award-winning director Mason launch one site devoted to hard and rough sex alongside another devoted to soft, gentle, highly sensual lovemaking scenes? I don't really know and I don't really care. After all, why question such a stunning example of romantic porn done right if it's already loaded with subtly steamy encounters gorgeous young pornstars? Why not just sit back, relax, and show EroticaX to your girlfriend. (And it just might make up for when you played her Nacho Invades America #2!)
Breaking the rule that said pornstars had to be young, largely unseen, blonde, and with faces free of any wrinkles or lines, MILFs overtook the adult industry over ten years ago and have been challenging the status quo ever since. Pure Mature is one of the premiere MILF-focused hardcore sites online porn has to offer. From the makers of high-grade efforts Passion HD and My Very First Time, Pure Mature's decidedly sophisticated take on MILF-fucking sees porn's hottest elder ladies prove they're just as vivacious and alluring as women half their age. As if there was ever any doubt…
JAV HD: Japan Adult Video, High Definition. If those five words don't arouse your appetite for erotically charged Asian porn, I don't know what will! JAV HD has been hosting a bevy of gloriously uncensored hardcore J-porn since its launch two years ago and is still going strong today. Now hosting an astonishing 17,000 scenes across its 14 kinky niche-interest websites, JAV HD has become the premiere J-porn network for English-speaking audiences. But there's still a couple of things standing in JAV HD's way as it attempts to reign supreme across the Asian-fancying pornoverse. Let me fill you in…
Next Door World is unlike most American neighborhoods in that it's filled not with budding families, Subaru Outbacks, and mortgage foreclosures but with hardcore homosexual antics that'll pucker your asshole and get your dick hard in no time. Bringing together fifteen exclusive websites focusing on different niche interests and porn-stud talents, Next Door World opens up so many avenues of sexual inquiry it might as well be a community built to keep you sexually satisfied… Oh, I guess it is.
A signature Brazzers site if ever there was one, Big Wet Butts is loaded with exactly that: the curviest, bounciest, and most all-round bodacious rear-ends found on the rear-side of the pornstar Mount Rushmore, fending off hordes of gropers and iPhone-photographers with their thick 'n' juicy ass cheeks. Not every woman planting her buns on set for this HD-equipped hardcore extravaganza takes one of those ZZ donkey-dicks anally, but every ass does get a thorough worshipping and working over, that's the Big Wet Butts guarantee.
Tearing out of continental Europe wrapped in a semen-encrusted satin blouse and eager for an orgy to break out, Tainster is a wild and adventurous Euro sex party that'll leave you reeling. Loaded with HD movies and high-res galleries that celebrate porn's weirdest and wildest fetishes - WAM, pissing, fake jizz, public sex, wild orgies, and much, much more. Already home to over 5000 scenes, Tainster's big, bold, and unquestionably boner-inducing.
If you have zero tolerance for shitty porn and want some of the finest HD fucking the Internet has to offer, ZTOD is the place to be! Home to such ludicrously lascivious titles and series as Lesbo Pool Party, Bangin' the Boss, Big Ass White Girls, and Muthas & Brothas Orgy as well as some more refined, sensually aware features, ZTOD serves up nearly 8,000 scenes starring everyone from Abella Danger to Dawn Kelly and taking on nurses, secretaries, cheerleaders, lesbians, babysitters, black-cock-lovers, swingers, MILFs, anal fiends, massage therapists, and cheating housewives, making it one hell of an adult A/V archive.

CrashIE.com Is a Scam
Uses illegitimate methods to promote other web browsers.
Crash IE is a tricky little web site which is designed to crash Internet Explorer. Turns out, it's a scam.
If you visit the mentioned page with the latest version of IE9, there is a big chance that your web browser will crash. Visit it with Google Chrome, Opera or Firefox and everything works like a charm.
So what's the big deal? Here is a thing: change the user agent to IE and every other web browser will crash too! Now isn't that nice?
Mozilla Feels Remorse Over Keeping Mum About SSL Certificate Theft
Attackers utilized genuine passwords and usernames to get a hold of nine SSL certificates on the 15th of March via a Comodo certificate reseller. What SSL certificates do is basically prove the authenticity of a site. The log-on websites affected were Yahoo Mail, Google's Gmail, Microsoft's Hotmail, Skype, as well as Mozilla's Firefox extension website.
Comodo revoked the certificates and brought the matter to the attention of Mozilla, Google, and Microsoft between the 15th and the 23rd of March. The breach of its reseller and the theft of the SSL certificates were announced on the 23rd of this month.

IE9 Mobile
The upcoming Windows Phone 7 update codenamed Mango is set to include the new version of Internet Explorer Mobile and bring quite a few new things to the table, such as: HTML5 support, performance improvements, slightly revamped UI and possibly social sites integration.
Folks at PocketNow have captured some of the IE9 Mobile magic in the video below for you to check out.
Internet Explorer 10 is Touch Optimized, Windows 8 – A Major Update
According to Win7China (which is a credible source), Internet Explorer 10 (IE10) will include a major UI overhaul which is set to be more touch optimized than previous IE versions. Furthermore, company is stressing the importance of overall web browser performance as well.
As far as it is known now, those are the two main goals for Microsoft.
What is more interesting is Windows 8 UI. Win7China reports that changes between Windows 7 and Windows 8 will be far greater than everyone expected.
In fact, source compared the new Windows 8 interface to Windows 1.0 > 3.1 > Windows 95 migration.
The future looks awesome.

Toaster for Fb2k, The port of the Winamp Toaster plugin

Discussion about the Toaster plugin, continued from:
Current version is 0.1.6 (http://www.myplugins.info), updated 5/03/2005
The Toaster plugin is a port from the Toaster for Winamp plugin:
and http://forums.winamp.com/showthread.php?s=&threadid=207630
As the port was done in about 20 minutes, there is still quite a bit of development to be done to get it working smoothly under fb2k.
Where is the Foobar 2000 0.9 port?
Porting to fb2k 0.9 would require a fair amount of work, due to the fact Toaster is not native unicode. I am planning a complete rewrite of Toaster, which should be a lot nicer. It should allow tiling custom skins, progress bars, buttons etc, and proper skin packaging support. So I wont bother porting this version of Toaster across, as it needs to be re-written anyway.

@waileongyeo: I have this already coded for the winamp version, and will put it in the foobar2000 version too, its pretty simple.
@Superunknown: If there is a simple callback mechanism for this I will put it in, but I couldnt find anything with a quick look. I could use all sorts of hacks to do it, but will only do it if there is a nice clean way to do it.
@war59312: The MSN Messenger info doesnt change dynamically because otherwise you will have it updating every second. I would suspect that every time this changes, a network packet goes out to all your contacts, so I avoid doing this, and do it only if the song changes.
I couldnt find a clean way to detect track changes in http streams in fb2k other than comparing the title every second. If you know of a clean callback method to detect actual track changes I will gladly make the fix. Using dynamic_info callback doesnt seem to make a difference.

I don't know if this was suggested before but a "Pin to desktop" (or "Always on bottom") option would be really great for Toaster.

- living the life
- sharing the gospel
- impacting communities
- through work and professional opportunities worldwide
The call of Jesus to His first disciples in Galilee required them to leave their nets and livelihood behind. They were to learn His provision while devoting themselves to discipleship and ministry.
Peter followed this pattern during his later missionary career, but Paul favoured a modified approach of plying a trade on some of his missionary journeys. This trade of tentmaking (Acts 18:3) not only relieved the infant church of financially supporting Paul but also gave him the opportunity to model Christian integrity and lifestyle in the workplace.
A tentmaker is a Christian called by God to cross-cultural ministry through their 'secular' vocation. Tentmakers today are teachers, administrators, bankers, engineers, architects, students, or physiotherapists - to name just a few.
Why use tentmakers?
There are more opportunities than ever for properly trained Christians in overseas jobs where they can communicate Christ and practise Christian ethics. There is an increasing need in the developing world for people with expertise in technology, education, and other fields.
And all ages can be involved. In fact, those who are over 50 may be in the particularly exciting position of having time on their hands and much valuable experience to share with others overseas. Christians in secular careers do not have to overcome some of the barriers faced by conventional missionaries. They have a natural point of contact with the community because their positions allow them to meet people of different professional and social classes. There are many situations where full-time missionaries fail to gain acceptance among people while secular workers who also "happen" to be Christians are welcome. Furthermore, a large number of countries now restrict Christian work in some way. Therefore, tentmaking is often the only way in which the Gospel can be spread in such places.
How does it work?
Self-support is an advantage because a tentmaker isn't paid by the church or a Christian organisation. This allows the worker to have independent credibility.
But self-support is not essential, and those on local salaries often have to be supplemented by payments from their churches and elsewhere. However, more important than the issue of support is that:
1. God has called you to use your gifts and skills in a cross-cultural situation and that you are sufficiently qualified and experienced. You will need spiritual and practical preparation to be effective in tentmaking. If you are going with an agency, they will be involved in your training. You may want to spend time on a Bible college course looking at mission issues in depth.
2. You take the opportunity to share the Gospel sensitively and with integrity. The work itself is a means of testimony and, depending on the circumstances, may be the only way. You need to be spiritually ready and motivated to answer questions and explain your faith as opportunities arise.
3. You are recognised and commended by your home church. You need to explain your vision carefully so that your church can see the importance of your work overseas and affirm you in it. You may also want to be linked with a mission agency that can encourage you through the difficult times, provide some accountability and help you establish a local support network.
4. You have good physical and psychological health to cope with culture stress and perhaps isolation and loneliness.
5. You have a good relationship with God and a sustained prayer life.
What's the balance?
Tentmakers have responsibilities towards their employers, and work commitments will limit the time that can be spent actively sharing the Gospel and learning the language.
Check out the details of your position before you go, and have realistic expectations of what you hope to achieve.
Remember that just one person who is saved and effectively discipled as a result of your witness can go on to share the Gospel with others who otherwise may never hear it.
Where do I start?
You should start to plan a strategy for preparation.
- Why not begin by looking in the newspapers and professional journals for the right sort of jobs? See what countries they are working in.
- Find out about those countries and the strategic opportunities that you might find there for being a Christian witness.
- Check out the resources and pages on CV's website on 'tentmaking' issues ... maybe contact some 'tentmakers' to gain a better understanding and real perspective.
- Talk to mission agencies and businesses that work in that part of the world and to people who have been there. Build up a file. Pray about the responses that you get.
- Talk it through with someone in your fellowship whose judgement you trust.
- Lay out your ideas to God. Let Him show you step by step what He wants you to do.
Mission Matters
published every year by Christian Vocations, contains details of current opportunities throughout the world. It includes a number of vacancies with mission organisations that actually send people as tentmakers. Every entry is indexed by type of work and location, making it easy to find the information that you want.

U.S. Northeast Chill May Boost Heating Needs Near Normal
A return to more seasonal weather in New England and the Northeast this week may mean energy needed for heating will be about normal for this time of year.
High temperatures will be in the 40s in New England and 50s in New York City this week, according to the National Weather Service. Heating demand will be near normal throughout the region, said David Salmon, owner of Weather Derivatives.
A freeze warning is in effect from Indiana to New Jersey because overnight temperatures may fall below 32 degrees Fahrenheit (zero Celsius), damaging plants that started growing in last week's above-normal warmth, the weather service said.
Commodities traders watch temperature predictions to gauge energy use and demand. Gas prices have fallen 24 percent this year as mild weather crimped demand while production reached record levels. About 51 percent of U.S. households use natural gas for heating, according to the Energy Department.
While weather in the Northeast and mid-Atlantic states is expected to be close to seasonal this week, temperatures may be 5 to 8 degrees above normal in the central U.S., said Matt Rogers, president of Commodity Weather Group LLC.
The central Great Plains may see temperatures 15 degrees above normal.
Warmth Fading
"About the only things that the models agree upon right now are that the super-warm March pattern is finally fading and that the Midwest and South retains most residual warmth going through the 6- to 10-day period" March 31 to April 4, Rogers, based in Bethesda, Maryland, said in a note to clients.
The U.S. heating degree days value for this week is expected to be 69, or 43 below normal and 76 lower than last year, according to the Climate Prediction Center in Camp Springs, Maryland.
Heating-degree days values are calculated by subtracting the daily average temperature from a base of 65 degrees to show energy demand. Higher values mean cooler weather and more energy being used to heat homes and businesses.
New England will have the highest value at 153, or 26 below normal and 56 lower than last year, while the mid-Atlantic may have the second highest with 130, or 29 lower than normal and 85 below last year.
From April 1 to April 5, the upper Great Plains and Midwest may have temperatures 10 to 18 degrees above normal, said Salmon, in Belton, Missouri, in his 6- to 10-day outlook.
The East Coast is expected to be 2 to 6 degrees above normal, except in eastern New England where temperatures will be seasonal, Salmon said.
In New York, the normal average temperature for April 3 is about 48, according to MDA EarthSat Weather in Gaithersburg, Maryland. It's 44 in Boston, 45 in Chicago, 53 in St. Louis, 59 in Atlanta, 62 in Dallas, 67 in Houston, 49 in Seattle and 60 in Burbank, California.

As one of the world's most prominent and prestigious fashion houses, Céline creates some of the most covetable high-end designs on the market. Sometimes, the pieces are so exclusive they're kept entirely under wraps; in news that took the interwebs by storm this week, the brand's head designer Phoebe Philo chose not to release pictures or invite photographers to Monday's resort presentation. Additionally, reviews, tweets and iPhone snapshots were strictly prohibited.
But however top-secret the presentation may have been, it seems Céline's not taking the same precautions with its bestselling handbags, as a handful of the brand's much lusted-after carryalls are currently stocked online at—are you ready for this?—Sears.com. Right now, both Céline's luggage and trapeze totes are available in a variety of colors ranging from bright yellow to classic black, with prices hovering around the $3,600 mark—which, curiously enough, is more than what many of those same bags would cost at a fancy department store or Céline flagship. Hmm.
According to the site, the bags are part of the "Marketplace at Sears.com…a community of sellers working with Sears to provide you with millions of additional items." No matter how they wound up at the mass-market retailer, it's definitely surprising. Would you buy a Phoebe Philo original from Sears?

I use dektol and in my experiance it has performed the best. You need a strong developer to build up the contrast and I don't think D76 will achieve the best results, although it will work.
Different films will require different levels of solvent. I use a "hypo" solution that I add to the developer just as I use it, in a one-shot metheod. I documented what I did here... http://myfilmstuff.blogspot.ca/2011/...l-process.html .

Hey everyone,
I've been looking around for a tack box, or trunk for quite some time now. However, they seem to be really pricey and none of them seem as though they would fit my needs ideally. Instead, I've decided to try my hand at making my own. I've seen a couple of cute ones out there, but was wondering if anyone knew of someone or a business selling gently used, or new, inexpensive tack boxes/trunks?
If not, has anyone ever made one themselves? Do you have directions and pictures? About how much should it cost and do you know any website that has plans on making them? Thank you so much!

Aspinwall National Night Out event draws crowd
After another successful National Night Out, the Aspinwall Neighborhood Watch has its sights set on the next wave of improvements to a local playground.
The group has been raising money to improve the playground near Fifth Street and Field Avenue for the last several years through events such as National Night Out.
This year's event raised nearly $5,000 and brought about 500 people to the Ben Killian Ball Fields, Lorraine Marks, president of the neighborhood watch, said.
"We were very happy with that," Marks said.
Marks cited LifeFlight and Musico's K-9 Academy as two new additions to this year's event that were a hit with visitors.
The group completed phase one of improvements to the park earlier this year. That work included equipment for younger children.
The next round of work will include the replacement of a play structure that includes slides and a tower for children between the ages of 5 and 12.
"That structure is rusty and in need of replacement just from the age of it," Marks said. "It doesn't look great and we want to replace it with something new and exciting."
The group is hoping donors will step up to help with those costs.
Marks said it could cost about $80,000 for the structure. The group has about $20,000 so far for that project.
The group also is waiting for a grant the borough is seeking for a ramp for people with disabilities. Once funding for that comes through, the group can begin work in the second part of the playground.
"That ramp will lead the way to the higher play area, which is where we took a lot of the pieces out and recycled them in the lower space," Marks said.

MIDDLETOWN -- When Frankton played Wapahani in a regular-season softball game this month, it issued an intentional walk to the Raiders' Danielle Wellman the first time she came to the plate.
Frankton pitched to Wellman the next two times she batted, and she responded with two basehits.
In a show of great respect for the senior who is batting .511 with eight home runs and 49 RBIs this season, Frankton intentionally walked Wellman all three times she batted Tuesday in the Shenandoah Class 2A Sectional. ...

Chicken and Dumplings
Winter circled back around one more time to visit Colorado Springs. Dire predictions of a blizzard and warnings to stay off the road kept me inside. Well, that is not the only reason that I stayed inside—I also was stricken with a nasty flu. After several days of surviving on canned soups, I wanted some old-fashioned comfort food. I wanted chicken and dumplings.
Being sick, I was banned from making anything, lest I become our home's typhoid Mary. But I wrote down a shortcut version of the recipe for the acting cook to follow. I was afraid that the results would be less than comforting. However, with a little couch-cooking, it turned out excellent. Still rich and creamy, with comforting chicken flavor. It is such a quick recipe, I think it is a keeper for a week-day chicken and dumplings.
Dumpling Challenge
The challenge to making chicken and dumplings is always the dumplings. There are two types of dumplings: the flat type, which resembles thick noodles, and the round version. . It is a matter of preference as to which you want, but they play an important part of the soup. The flour from the dumplings helps thicken the broth.
What's the difference? The flat dumplings are made from stiffer rolled dough and then cut into shape. The round dumpling is made from a thick batter dropped by the spoonful into the broth. My experience in making chicken and dumplings is that the flat version will not thicken the broth as much as the round
My dumplings dissolved! What happened? One of my first attempts at making chicken and dumplings, all of my dumplings disappeared. The soup was rich and thick, but not a dumpling remained in the broth. I immediately called up my grandmother, the source of all my dumpling knowledge. After she stopped laughing, 5 minutes later, she asked me if the broth had been boiling when I dropped in the dumplings. It had not been. She may have had a good laugh, but I got some great tips for making dumplings that have helped ensure that my dumplings are delicious.
Grandma's Tips for Delicious Dumplings
Start with boiling broth: Having the broth at a slow boil when you start dropping in the dumplings is the key to making the dumplings regardless of which type you are making. The high heat of the boiling liquid seals the dumpling into shape as soon as it hits the liquid.
Do not rush adding the dumplings: As the dumplings are added to the hot broth they will sink and then come back up to the top. Typically, I will add several at a time, wait the 30 seconds or some for them to start coming back up and then add more. Add another round of dumplings, then wait. I continue in the same way until all the dumplings are in the pot.
Keep the broth at a high simmer: Make sure to adjust the heat as you go to keep the broth between a simmer and slow boil. This will keep the dumplings intact.
Cover the pot and don't stir: Once the dumplings are in cover it, and here is the next important part, do not stir the pot for at least 15 minutes. After 15 minutes or so, uncover the soup and stir to separate the dumplings, if necessary. Let them continue to simmer until done.
Taste a dumpling: Gummy dumplings are undercooked dumplings. Pull one out of the broth after they have been simmering for 15 to 20 minutes. If it is still gummy in the center, let them keep cooking and try again in a few minutes.
Thicken, if needed: I typically make the round dumplings, and my broth thickens nicely. But after stir to separate the dumplings, if you want to make your broth thicker, that's when you want to do it. Adding a blond roux, flour or cornstarch dissolved into chicken broth, or a little heavy cream, will thicken a broth nicely.
Quick Chicken and Dumplings
Makes 4 servings
32 ounces chicken stock
2 medium carrots, cut into 1/4- to 1/2 inch rounds
1 stalk celery, sliced thinly
1 medium onion, diced
2 boneless chicken breasts, cut into bite-size pieces
1/2 teaspoon dried thyme
3/4 cup all-purpose flour
1-3/4 teaspoon baking powder
1/2 cup milk
Salt and pepper to taste
In a 4-quart saucepan over medium heat, add chicken stock, onions, celery, onion and chicken. Bring to a boil, then reduce to simmer. Cook 20 to 30 minutes, until chicken is cooked through.
In a small mixing bowl, whisk together flour, baking powder, 1/2 teaspoon of salt. Using a fork to stir, mix in 1/2 cup milk to form a soft, but thick batter. Add up to 2 additional tablespoons of milk if batter is too thick.
Increase heat to bring broth to a low boil. Drop by the tablespoonful into simmering liquid. Keep the dumplings spaced apart to prevent them from sticking together. Continue to add dumplings until all batter is used.
Cover and let simmer for 15 minutes. Uncover and stir. Check dumpling for doneness by tasting or breaking one apart. If dumpling is gummy in the center, allow them to simmer 5 to 10 minutes longer.
Serve immediately.

I created a class that handles serial port asynchronously. I use it to communicate with a modem. I have no idea why, but sometimes, when I close my application, I get the Blue Screen and my computer restarts. I logged my code step by step, but when the BSOD appeared, and my computer restarted, the file into which I was logging data contained only white spaces. Therefore I have no idea, what the reason of the BSOD could be.
I looked through my code carefully and I found several possible reasons of the problem (I was looking for all that could lead to accessing unallocated memory and causing AV exceptions).
When I rethought the idea of asynchronous operations, a few things came to my mind. Please verify whether these are right:
1) WaitCommEvent() takes a pointer to the overlapped structure. Therefore, if I call WaitCommEvent() inside a function and then leave the function, the overlapped structure cannot be a local variable, right? The event mask variable and event handle too, right?
2) ReadFile() and WriteFile() also take references or pointers to variables. Therefore all these variables have to be accessible until the overlapped read or write operations finish, right?
3) I call WaitCommEvent() only once and check for its result in a loop, in the mean time doing other things. Because I have no idea how to terminate asynchronous operations (is it possible?), when I destroy my class that keeps a handle to a serial port, I first close the handle, and then wait for the event in the overlapped structure that was used when calling the WaitCommEvent() function. I do this to be sure that the thread that waits asynchronously for a comm event does not access any fields of my class which is destroyed. Is it a good idea or is it stupid?
if Assigned(FWaitCommEvent) then
FSerialPortHandle := INVALID_HANDLE_VALUE;
Before I noticed all these, most of the variables mentioned in point one and two were local variables of the functions that called the three methods above. Could it be the reason of the BSOD or should I look for some other mistakes in my code?
When I corrected the code, the BSOD stopped occuring, but It might be a coincidence. How do you think?
Any ideas will be appreciated. Thanks in advance.
I read the CancelIo() function documentation and it states that this method cancells all I/O operations issued by the calling thread. Is it OK to wait for the FWaitCommEvent after calling CancelIo() if I know that WaitCommEvent() was issued by a different thread than the one that calls CancelIo()?
if Assigned(FWaitCommEvent) and CancelIo(FSerialPortHandle) then
I checked what happens in such case and the thread calling this piece of code didn't get deadlocked even though it did not issue WaitCommEvent(). I tested in on Windows 7 (if it matters). May I leave the code as is or is it dangerous? Maybe I misunderstood the documentation and this is the reason of my question. I apologize for asking so many questions, but I really need to be sure about that.

Reman Warbird Scimitar
but anyone thing this ship was a little contrived?
a secret Warbird built by a slave-race on a secret base in the Romulan Empire. the ship being the size of a Romulan Warbird if not bigger.
the ship has dual-shielding, 20-somthing torpedo launchers & 50-something disruptors. it has a perfect cloak & can fire weapons whilst cloaked. the ship can also outrun a Sovereign-class starship.
basically this is leagues ahead of anything the Romulans or starfleet have.
do you think it would be possible to build such a ship in secret?

Leaving it in the hands of the Remans was a dumb idea though.

Re: Reman Warbird Scimitar
Praetor Neral (or whoever?) was pretty unconcerned, though, which suggests he either didn't know about the warbird or didn't know about the thalaron device--perhaps the latter. Killing the continuing committee was a demonstration. And as long as the Scimitar was in orbit, the Romulans obeyed Shinzon out of fear. It only took about five seconds after he left for Donatra to turn on him.
Edit: and the Scimitar was no D'Deredix, it's true, but I actually liked the ship. The Valdore-type, on the other hand... they're all right, but an aesthetic step down from the D'D, not a step sideways. Their wings are still attractive, but the command hull is much uglier than the D'D's graceful lines.
And I wonder what the real name of the ship was, since Scimitar isn't exactly Romulan--S'harien, perhaps?

Re: Reman Warbird Scimitar
Its in the comic books,so read 'Countdown' when you grab a second,but the Narada isn't contrived at all,unlike the idea of a secret Thalaron-weapon being built into an all-new and untested ship and weapons system by a slave race with neither resources or ability to carry it out-or,a top-secret Romulan science project that was seized by a group of underclass citizens,in a scenario that would be similar to street hoodlums stealing a USAF B-2 stealth nuclear bomber.

Re: Reman Warbird Scimitar
I personally think the Countdown stuff is just at a similar level as your typical fan-wank (and just as poorly written as a fan-wank) - IMO. The Borg tech backstory is better forgotten.
Back on topic... Yes the Reman warbird in Nemesis did make very little sense.
|May 14 2009, 12:12 PM
Re: Reman Warbird Scimitar
If the Romulan Star Empire wants to build a secret warbird, isn't it completely natural to assume that Reman slaves will build it in a secret base? I mean, what are the alternatives?
- That Romulans would build it? Makes no sense. Work is for slaves.
- That it would be built in the open? Makes less sense. Romulans value their secrecy a lot. They'd keep secrets from foreigners, but also from their own people they didn't completely trust. Remember how the IJN built the battleship Yamato? They erected a giant canvas wall around the dockyard so that the construction site could not be seen from the city!
Frankly, I don't see what is so unbelievable about all this. The Romulans could have proceeded in no other way in getting the Scimitar built.
Now, one might wonder that the ship was secret from the Romulans. But this is not stated in the movie at all. Obviously, Romulans keep a lot of secrets from each other. But the existence of the Scimitar, or the presence of the thalaron weapon aboard her, were never stated or implied to have been secret from the Romulans. Certainly the military knew about those. The Senate might have known as well: it never survived to tell, one way or another.

Re: Reman Warbird Scimitar
The scimitar could also be explained away with supplemental material, but even if it was then the vessel would still come across as extremely contrived within the context of the movie, just like the Narada.

Re: Reman Warbird Scimitar
Taking Shinzon at his word would mean that a slave underclass somehow acquired the time,material,weaponry,engineering skill,and use of a shipyard construction facility to build a tested and 100% functional superweapon in the Romulans back yard *without their knowledge*!That's like a group of Best Buy employees building a functional nuclear missle silo in Washington DC without the US government knowing anything.What kind of sorry excuse for internal security existed in Romulan space for the Remans to have built a ship that size without ANYONE knowing it?

Re: Reman Warbird Scimitar
That a mining rig would be far larger and sturdier than a warship sounds natural to the 21st century audience, since we know that mining is done with those floating steel islands while wars are fought by smallish aluminum ships. That the mining rig would have destructive potential... That's where this red matter thing comes in. And if tiny droplets of it can destroy planets and were intended to destroy stars, then why not starfleets?
Again, nowhere in the movie is it mentioned or even implied that the Scimitar would have been kept secret from everybody except the Remans. A slightly older script version found at TrekCore makes it more explicit that the Romulan military knew of the ship and her capabilities, but even the aired version makes it perfectly possible to think of this as a Romulan secret project, rather than something done against Romulan wishes.

Re: Reman Warbird Scimitar
in no way does the Scimitar resemble Romulan design!
the ship was built in secret at a secret base & used to launch a coup d'etat.
the ship's cloak is the most advanced ever seen
the ship's thaloran weapon is a planet killer
the ship has dual-shielding
the ship can outrun a Sovereign-class starship
the ship eliminated 2 Romulan Warbirds with ease & presumably the Enterprise survived so long only because Shinzon wanted Picard alive
the ship is relatively manouverable for its size
the ships main weakness is its thin-skin.
of the 2 known warbird designs in the 24th century- the D'deridex & Valdore - the Scimitar bares no resemblance & is a lot more advanced.
|May 14 2009, 04:52 PM
Re: Reman Warbird Scimitar
But the Remans-a slave race who would have to embezzle and/or steal resources and technology ,who don't have their own government or acess to off-world mining resources-build,construct,test,and deploy a weapons system that beats all the ships above in every category,in faster timeframes,*without anyone knowing about it,including the Romulans themselves*.It would realistically take years to build a ship as massive and complicated as the Schimitar,and even the most incompetent materials manager in Romulus would notice several million metric tons of raw metal dissapearing for no reason.
And according to Shinzon,he built the Scimitar at a 'secret base',so we can rule out a Reman uprising as the reason the ship was taken.Bottom line,the Scimitars existence doesn't make sense without resorting to logical pretzels.

This is only tangentially related to the NFL, I suppose, but I'm writing about it anyway, because I think the fact that Reggie Bush is so sad about not being able to give back his Heisman Trophy is hysterical.
Mack Brown, current Texas Longhorn coach, agrees with Reggie , although he doesn't seem to find it as amusing as I do.
"I think you have to go back and really give that choice to the Heisman Trust. If they take it away, I think Vince should be awarded the trophy . . . Vince was second in the voting, so even if they re-voted I would like to see Vince get it," the Longhorns football coach told Dan Patrick.
"At this point it's irrelevant because the Heisman Trust has not decided to take it away," he added.
Brown's right -- if the Trust decides to let Reggie keep it (and maybe they just don't want to deal with the whole process of having to try and take it away), there's little chance he'll give it back voluntarily.
Of course, Young supposedly said he doesn't even want the thing , and if that's true, Brown probably knows that -- he's probably just trying to make a point that not only did he win a BCS title legally, but that his best player didn't get the props he deserved.

My product images are distorted - I'm not sure what dimensions to upload as the original file.
I am using Woocommerce for my products.
I am uploading a product of this size: 415px x 415px. (via WordPress >> Media).
Under my settings I have the foillowing dimensions set: Large: 600, Medium 300, Small 150.
i can see in FTP > under uploads folder that my original image is there and also 3 more compressed ones with following file suffix: img300, img150, and img90.
However, my shop image product at full size renders at 450 x 450

I'm confused as to what is going on here?
Does Woocommerce have its own dimension settings?
Or is it supposed to use the generic ones set in Media settings?

BOSTON (AP) — A judge has rejected a bail request from a friend of the dead Boston Marathon bombing suspect while he awaits trial on charges of impeding the investigation.
Khairullozhon Matanov (hy-ROO'-luh-zhahn MAH'-tuh-nahf), a friend of Tamerlan Tsarnaev (TAM'-ehr-luhn tsahr-NEYE'-ehv), is accused of deleting computer files and lying when questioned about his relationship with Tamerlan and his younger brother, Dzhokhar.
Authorities say the Tsarnaevs placed twin bombs at the marathon that killed three and wounded more than 260. Tamerlan Tsarnaev died following a shootout with police. His brother awaits trial.
Matanov's lawyer has argued that he voluntarily went to police after the bombings and identified the brothers.
But Magistrate Judge Marianne Bowler says she agrees with prosecutors that Matanov is a flight risk because he has friends and family around the world. Matanov is from Kyrgyzstan.
