A wonderful plant and so many different varieties although hard to find some varieties. I have had an interest in these plants for sometime. I first got some from Asiatica (Barry Yinger) when he was still open. He had several great varieties. I also purchased 'Washitakakuma' from Plant Delights and have been very pleased with it although a bit pricey ($100) . I recently purchased some beautiful variegated varieties and now have about 20 different cultivars.

I first bought some of these plants at Tony Avent's Plant Delights Nursery in 2006, and have added more since then. The plants are nice, hardy, fully evergreen and REALLY easy to care for: They've survived at least two record or near-record droughts without any supplemental water, and the only "pests" I've had problems with is sometimes desperate wild rabbits will nibble on the leaves during the winter, but not much (apparently they're a bit too tough and chewey for the rabbits' liking).

It looks like you're new here. If you want to get involved, click one of these buttons!
Basically, this. I upgraded a taco-model 3DS to an XL and got the SD card for $200 total a few months back, and most of my GOTY list is going to be 3DS stuff. I want to play P4Golden and some of the other PSN stuff, but I can't justify spending more than I did on the XL for something I'm going to use less.smacd said:I'm at the point where it isn't the lack of software that is stopping me from a Vita purchase now that there are several titles I'd actually consider getting, its the cost. Specifically for the memory, but the system itself is more than I'm willing to pay at this point. $250 for the Vita (wifi only 'lesser' model) itself, and $100 for 32 (measly) GB of memory? Are you freaking kidding? I can get a 3DS XL ('better' model) for $200 (or $170 without looking too hard), and put a 32GB SD card in for less than $20 more. I can accept the cost of the Vita itself (I'd still wait for a price drop, since I refuse to spend more than $200 for any console/handheld), but the price of the memory is downright criminal. I haven't looked into it yet, but I know there was a method of using microSD cards with the PSP that saved me quite a bit, which might be an alternative to the ridiculous prices Sony charges for their proprietary memory sticks if that alternative exists. Until I can buy in and have a reasonable amount of memory for $200, I'm not buying.
I'd have to add in here that while it is nice that the Vita can play PS1 classics, and it can play (most? not all?) digital PSP games, the 3DS can play I believe any physical DS game, and also has a large part of the DSiWare library available as well. Sure, the 3DS in most cases requires the physical copy of the game, but its backward compatibility is superior to the Vita I feel. There are only like a dozen or so PS1 classic RPGs available on PSN anyway.MasterChief said:First off, that "much of the Vita's library is digital" is a huge part of the problem in moving hardware.
While I'm at it, no, PSOne classics are not a reason to buy a handheld, at least not at this point. The only people who care one iota about PSOne at this point are die-hard gamers, and with the ease of emulation it's trivial to either load up the games you already own, or eBay games, and play them on any platform where one can find a decent emulator. No, while PSOne classics are a nice bonus once you have a Vita, the Vita has to live and die by Vita games, and there's just nowhere near enough. Likewise, indie games are very infrequently going to matter, as they tend to be less graphically intensive and, as a result, playable on a far wider portion of PCs and tablets than traditional, higher-spec games. Thus, people who care about indies likely already have a platform to play them on.
I skipped the PS3 version and only bought the Vita version. I already have too many PS3 games, and I finish them at a much slower rate than Vita games due to lack of time to play on the home systems. I have something like 40 unfinished PS3 games still, and that pile just keeps growing while my Vita pile is remaining about steady despite me buying 3-4 new Vita games per month.MasterChief said:
And then there's ports. Sorry, but this is a real concern. I just went out and picked up Dragon's Crown. I did so on the PS3, and will likely not pick up the Vita version until it's noticeably marked down, if I even remember to do so. This, in many ways, is the story of Sony's handheld efforts in general: The complete and utter lack of anything that's truly made with handhelds in mind makes it feel like the redheaded stepchild, whose experiences would almost all be better served on people's PS3s or PS4s. That Sony's already re-positioning the Vita as a second screen for the PS4 and didn't even talk about Vita software at their E3 speaks volumes. It feels like the damned thing has been written off, whereas the 3DS is being aggressively supported by Nintendo and other publishers.
Uncharted: Golden Abyss was not in any way middling. It's actually better than the first Uncharted game, and longer too. Resistance: Burning Skies is bad, but that's from the studio that made both horrible FPS games for the system. They should have never been given two large franchises to bring to the system. I've managed to sell 2 people on Vita's already using the library that exists, I'm sure I'll be getting more people to buy it.MasterChief said:
Also, while I get that this is primarily an RPG site, that we're only talking about RPGs isn't looking at the whole picture. RPGs, particularly Japanese RPGs, aren't going to move hardware: they're going to mostly be in places where hardware is moving. Therefore, even if you're the rare sort that only ever plays RPGs, paying attention to the larger system ecosystem is a good barometer of what the future will hold. Nintendo, of course, has a huge advantage with their stable of successful franchises, with Super Mario 3D Land kick-starting the 3DS' good fortunes and Pokemon X/Y set to move millions of systems by itself upon release. Where are the Sony system-sellers? There's Killzone: Mercenaries, but at this point I'd be surprised if people aren't going to be suspicious of the "Popular franchise tossed on Vita" formula after the middling Uncharted: Golden Abyss and the terrible Resistance: Burning Skies. Then of course there's Japan, where the Vita was being outsold by the PSP on a regular basis for the longest time. I'm not sure, but is that still the case?
OK, now what I'm going to say next may have to be taken with a grain of salt since I never had the small version of the 3DS (I didn't buy in until the XL came out). With that disclaimer in mind, I have to say that any assertion that the circle pad is worse than the friggin PSP nub is absolutely insane. That thing was so hard to use, partly due to its position relative to the D-pad, and partly becuase I found the nub way too stiff, both on the 1000 and 3000 PSP models.kazriko said:As for "not made with handhelds in mind" that's the 3DS in my mind. It wasn't made at all with the concept that someone would actually be holding the thing. It's the most uncomfortable to use handheld I've ever used. The analog circle pad is far, far worse than the PSP's analog slider nub.

2005 Lincoln LS • 50,000 miles
I have a 2005 lincoln ls 3.9 l v8. It is throwing 2 codes, po306 and po353. 306 means that cilinder 6 is misfiring and 353 means coil c is malfucntioning. Is coil c directly over cilder 6? Could it just b the spark plug in 6 causing it to throw both codes?

It's doubtful a spark plug could cause both codes. Swap coil caps 5 & 6, 1 & 6, something like that, see if it changes anything. If it's the coil, the problem will follow it.
A faulty coil can cause both faults. A bad plug wire or connector can, also.

Quickie Tipster: How Not to Lose Your Diana F+ Lens Cap1 4 Share Tweet
Some say if you lose your Diana F+ lens cap it doesn't matter. I'd rather preserve the beautiful plastic wonderment. Here's the quickest tipster you'll ever read.
Your Diana F+ lens focuses by moving the front element (only the element) forwards and backwards. When it's set to 1-2 metres, it is as far forward as it extends. This means the lens cap doesn't fit on fully, on mine, not at all, it just falls off.
So, don't lose your lens cap, always set the focus to infinity before you put it back on.
Here's a few of my favourite Diana F+ photos:
The Diana F+ is a new twist on the '60s classic cult camera. Famous for its dreamy and soft-focused images, the Diana F+ is now packed with extra features such as panorama and pinhole capabilities. Available in our Online Shop.

Notes from Organised Tastings
Australian wines at Oddbins
by Tom Cannavan, 05/99
This was a tasting of Australian wines organised by the Oddbins retail chain of wine shops in the UK. Oddbins were truly one of the pioneers in bringing Australian wines to the UK high street and there current line up still puts most other retailers in the shade. There are no really new or exciting flavours here (my one general criticism of Australian wines) but what we have as always is lovely fruit, good concentration and delicious, well-made wines.
Cranswick Estate Unwooded Semillon 1998 - £4.49
Subtle, attractive nose of sealing-wax, wool and figs. Quite full bodied and dry on the palate with restrained, savoury flavours of fig, butter and orange peel. Good food wine at a decent price.
Jim Barry Watervale Riesling 1998 - £5.99 (Fine Wine stores only)
Nose is very fresh and aromatic with notes of lime and ginger. Good weight on the palate with juicy, fruity flavours and glimpses of intense, fruit-gum ripeness. Fine citrus acidity. Would keep. Very good.
Jamieson's Run (Coonawarra) Chardonnay 1997 - £7.99
Gorgeous nose of ground ginger spice, butter and orange. Dry and very savoury with ripe apple and pear flavours and fine, natural acidity and good length. Very elegant, fresh and good.
Penny's Hill (McLaren Vale) Chardonnay 1997 - £8.99
Big charred oak nose masks other components, but emerging hints of melon and banana. Palate is also heavily oaked and slightly astringent, with toasty flavours dominating and a long spicy finish. Good, and might benefit from a year or two in bottle.
Yarra Valley Hills Chardonnay 1997 - £8.99
Another big, almost Burgundian nose of charred oak, coffee and burnt toast. Palate has rounded, buttery mouthfeel with sweet-edged pear fruit and a tart, apple acidity bringing up the finish. There is good length, which again suggests this might mature quite nicely over a couple of years.
Wolf Blass (South Australia) President's Selection Chardonnay 1996 - £9.99
Nicely balanced nose with Burgundian character of toasty oak, pear fruit, butter and hints of mineral complexity. Palate is really quite elegant too, though oak dominates for now, there is fine pear and apple fruit, some sweet tropical notes and lots of toasted spices in the finish. Long and very good.
Yarra Valley Hills Pinot Noir 1998 - £8.99
I recommended the '97 vintage of this wine in my magazine column recently. The nose is quite blunt with charcoal aromas, solid cherry fruit and lemony sharpness. Very tannic palate - really quite harsh at present. Toasty oak dominates bitter-cherry fruit and spice. Components a little disjointed at the moment but might come together quite nicely - plenty of concentrated fruit beneath the tannins.
Jamieson's Run (Coonawarra) Merlot 1997 - £7.99
Really juicy, jammy, black-cherry and blackcurrant fruit. Beautifully pure with minty intensity. Lush and sweetly fruity on the palate, with crunchy berry fruit and plump, vanilla-infused flavours. Long and delicious. Very good.
Peter Lehmann (Barossa Valley) Shiraz 1996 - £6.99
Moderately intense nose of blackberry and pepper. Quite soft and juicy on the palate before big tannins kick in. Quite round and spicy. More structured and fruit is firmer than I thought at first. Quite good, not a blockbuster style.
Peter Lehmann (Barossa Valley) "Seven Surveys" 1996 - £6.99
Grenache/Shiraz/Mourvedre. Powerful nose of spices, plum and mulberry. Quite dark and brooding. Plate has good plummy fruit and sweet oak, more spice and long savoury finish. Nice stuff.
Penfolds (Coonawarra) Bin 128 Shiraz 1996 - £9.49
Quite charcoaly at first and vaguely medicinal. Very peppery then lots of very sweet, ripe cherry and damson fruit. A nice herbal edge adds interest and a peppery quality shows up in the finish. This is quite tight at the moment with firm tannins and raw acidity, but the components are very good. Give it 3 - 5 years and I'd guess it would be excellent.
d'Arenberg (McLaren Vale) "The Custodian" Grenache 1996 - £7.99
Massive dry tannins over tightly-wound black cherry fruit. A little leafiness, and a leathery quality. Palate has some bitter acidity poking through, but it is very tight and focused black fruit, pepper and spice. Good weight and concentration, good length.
d'Arenberg (McLaren Vale) "Coppermine Road" Cabernet Sauvignon 1996 - £14.99
Tasted many times now, including
last week
so didn't write a note. Intense, mint and cassis cabernet of high quality.

Wouldn't you want your children to reap the benefits of what you had sown? Don't we all want to leave something behind for people to benefit from after we are gone? Dr. and Mrs. King were well aware that their work was important, but dangerous, and just as well aware of the possibility that their children might grow up without a father, and with a mother who was significantly dedicated to her husband's cause and legacy. The rights to the works of the parents were their gift to their children, an inheritance, because they knew that they would be forced to grow up and survive in a world completely without privacy. I think any of us in that situation would want the same thing for our children.
They are good people, believe me, and they are doing the best that they can. For Mr. Curry to spread the falsehood that the King family is charging schools for the "I Have a Dream" speech is not only wrong, but hurtful and embarrassing to these good people. I can't imagine how they must feel, growing up with their father taken so prematurely from them, and then receiving calumny, being treated like misers for wanting their patrimony, like anyone else would.
After celebrating another Martin Luther King Day—and a very special one, it being the Second Inauguration of the first black president—is this really the kind of negativity that Dr. King would want? Dr. King marched to bring people together because of their common humanity, not to see his followers divide and conquer themselves. I hope that we can unite our community, our churches, and our country behind the universal humanitarian message of that great preacher, that great American hero, Martin Luther King. His is a message for all people, a message of peace and authentic hope, born of faith.

I think most breeds and crossbreeds, can be used for ranch work. We have quite a few Gypsy Horse owners now, who are using their horses to round up, cut and sort cattle. Some of them also show these same horses in WP. Some use Gypsies for logging, delivering hay to far fields and general ranch work. I think some of us get stuck in thinking only certain breeds can be used for specific work or discipline.

Remember Me
Sonic Bloom Pre-Parties - Night 2 :: 04.25.09 :: Cervantes' Masterpiece :: Denver, CO
Upon entering Cervantes' I was greeted with sublime sounds from Boulder natives Raja Ananda and Mikey Fisher's Future Simple Project. Spend a few minutes listening to these boys' music and it's crystal clear these guys understand dubstep. Cleverly flexing their expertise for the crowd to sweat it out on the floor, they kept their set tight and clean while twisting and tugging their audio with effects. Gentile melodies drenched in bass move their recordings, which typically slo-step along at around 70 bpm. These gentlemen are just getting started on their audio adventures, and I truly can't wait to see what the future holds for these two crafty individuals.
The beautifully voiced LYNX returned on stage with Sonic Bloom mastermind Jamie Janover to again serve up their original approach to folk-electro. Adorned with an acoustic guitar and sturdy pipes, LYNX let her soul shine, while Janover provided the backing structure needed to keep the party going for a second night in a row.
Also back for a second night, indulging Coloradoans with their fuse of eastern rhythms and sitar-laced ballads, Beats Antique blew up the stage with high energy and charismatic force. Once again, live fiddle was incorporated into their fun glitch-y tunes, while they wavelessly fed haunting effects through their leads and drums. With foreign strings and horns ferociously ripping through Byzantine scales like a giant through tissues, one could easily get lost in their verses, as if stuck in a smoky, opium induced stupor.
Having never seen Mimosa before, I was worried about him handling the difficult task of closing after Ana Sia's stellar set. But, this was only because I had never seen him perform before. When he began playing I looked around at the astonished faces that surrounded me. The mutual consensus was, "Holy shit!" Tigran Mimosa dropped nothing but filthy whomp-step until the wee hours of the morning, holding the speakers and the people in the building hostage until he was good and ready to release them. His incredible eye for detail had the crowd howling out cheers of approval during each and every alteration to the beat. Keeping the assemblage busy with luscious, varied whomp bass samples that switched from 1/16 to 1/32 notes to slowed down quarter-note triples, it was just what the bass animals wanted to hear. Mimosa's impressive first class performance astonished many Pre-Party attendees, giving them something fresh and new to look forward to in the future.
If all good things must come to an end, they did so in the best way Saturday. The music Friday night seemed to be more varied, each artist displaying a different sound, while the performers on Saturday all flowed together, as if they were one humongous team interested only in keeping people dancing as hard as they could. Having attended a Sonic Bloom Festival in the past, I realize that these superb shows were only a tiny taste of the musical excellence that was soon to come.
These bands and many more will perform at the official Sonic Bloom Festival which kicks-off this weekend, Friday June, 26 and runs through Sunday June, 28 at Mishawaka Amphitheatre, in Bellvue, CO. Details, including ticket links and lineup available at www.SonicBloomFestival.com.

On the Prowl
On the Prowl
Battle of New Orleans
At the recent Southern Republican Leadership Conference in New Orleans, where the stars were supposed to be the likes of former Alaska Gov. Sarah Palin, the real stars were the behind-the-scenes players attempting to build momentum for their candidates leading into the 2010 and 2012 election cycles.
While Mitt Romney had his full organization out front trying to buy up the straw poll event, operatives for Minnesota Gov. Tim Pawlenty, Rep. Ron Paul, and former Arkansas Gov. Mike Huckabee were all actively working the main floor event and holding meetings with interested groups.
The big target: fundraisers and bundlers from the Bush 2004 and McCain 2008 presidential campaigns. Perhaps under the radar -- a political consultant claiming to represent former Utah governor and current Obama administration ambassador to China Jon Huntsman quietly encouraging Bush donors to "keep their powder dry" until Huntsman had a chance to consider his viability as a presidential candidate.
Also in play: several political consultants claiming ties to Mississippi Gov. Haley Barbour, who spoke at the event.
Barbour hasn't decided on his potential run for the presidency in 2012, though staff members say that his administration has taken on the feel of one that is focused on other things.
Another candidate who fell flat in the Big Easy? Former House Speaker Newt Gingrich, who, some advisers say, doesn't believe the Tea Party movement is a good thing for the Republican Party.
Up River With DeMint
Sen. Jim DeMint has done more than just about any other elected official in Washington, except perhaps President Barack Obama, to improve the political fortunes of conservative Republicans, particularly with his endorsement of state and federal candidates.
He was an early adopter of Florida's Marco Rubio, and was influential in driving conservatives away from established incumbents, like Sen. Robert Bennett of Utah, and candidates, like Indiana's former Sen. Dan Coats and former Interior secretary and Colorado senate candidate Gale Norton.
"In some cases [DeMint] has probably pushed some of these candidates further to the right than they are comfortable with, but more squarely where they need to be if they succeed in the primaries," says a Washington-based consultant. "No one would accuse Gale Norton of being a conservative, but the ads she has been running were far more aggressive than anything you would have expected from her. I think DeMint's shadow in all these races has had an impact."
So the question follows: beyond helping the movement, why is DeMint injecting himself into these races and sometimes poking colleagues in the eye? Some believe DeMint's endgame is the eventual play for Senate Republican Leader Mitch McConnell's job or at the least creating a conservative caucus in the Senate that, should Republicans win back the body, would have the votes to push policies and politics toward conservative principles.
"If nothing else, Jim DeMint has shown he's more about principle than whipping the votes for a compromise piece of legislation with Democrats," says a Senate Republican leadership aide. "He's supporting men and women who hold his view and who have indicated they will fight for conservative principles. If he has seven or eight of those types lined up, and Republicans hold a narrow majority, those votes become increasingly important."
Ironically, some say DeMint is using a strategy similar to the one set up by senators John McCain and Lindsey Graham five years ago, when they created a loose-knit "Gang of 14" to block Sen. Bill Frist from using the "nuclear option" to push through Bush administration federal court nominees.
"The difference," says another Senate leadership aide, "is that DeMint wouldn't be selling conservatives down the river."
Presidential Slice
President Barack Obama likes his schedule to be flexible enough for him to get in at least one weekend round of golf if he so chooses, but some senior White House advisers think that he should be focusing more on doing the work of a sitting president.
"It doesn't look good that he goes on vacation in North Carolina two days after the [British Petroleum] oil spill takes place," says a former Obama campaign adviser. "So all weekend, you have stories about the Obamas in North Carolina playing golf and having fun, and meanwhile, no one knows what the federal government is doing to help with the oil spill."
According to White House sources, Obama considered golf outings at least twice more in the wake of the spill and was advised not to "overplay" the game.
"At least with basketball, he can do it on the White House grounds," says a current Democrat political consultant, who advises the White House on media matters. "Golf just tends to make you look detached, and now a lot of people connect it simply to Tiger Woods, and the president doesn't need to be tied to that at all."
Tory Centered
Some American conservatives were not surprised that British Conservative Party leader David Cameron hired Obama campaign advisers, led by former White House communications adviser Anita Dunn.
"Ever since Cameron began gaining traction politically by moving the Conservative Party to the left on issues like global warming, he's seen himself as more of a centrist player," says a member of Cameron's shadow cabinet. "The question is whether he will feel comfortable moving to the right should he gain the prime minister's job." (At press time Cameron was leading in the polls nationally over Liberal Democrat Nicholas Clegg and Labour prime minister Gordon Brown.)
Cameron purportedly got the idea to "repackage" the Conservative Party as a more appealing party to women and young people from Newt Gingrich and his ideas to "repackage" the Republican Party to allow for policy discussions around such issues global warming and green politics.
Obscured Transparency
Rep. Mike Quigley (D-IL) has been walking the point on federal legislation that would impose new requirements on lobbyists, but it's the Obama White House that is really driving the issue. The Transparency in Government Act would require members of Congress to detail personal financial data more clearly, but also require lobbying filings to be more timely. More important, it would change the definition of what a "lobbyist" is and set new limits on who lobbyists meet with and when.
"It's really all about locking the current system in place in a way that gives Democrats the advantage over Republicans," says one House Republican leadership staffer. "Just as things are beginning to pivot away from Democrats, all of a sudden, they get religion on transparency in government, something that this Democratic leadership fought tooth and nail against for months. This has been the least transparent Congress and the least transparent administration in history."
Obama political advisers don't doubt that they can rival if not exceed Obama's 2008 fundraising for his re-election campaign in 2012, but they want to limit Republicans' ability to match them, particularly with the Supreme Court ruling in Citizens United which changed the way corporations and others could support political activity in the run-ups to elections.

Is it easy to change majors once you enter schools? I realized picking one out of a hat that has the potential to net me a lot of money in the end wasn't such a good idea. I really hate what I picked and I definitely dont want to pursue it anymore.

Haven't read the entire thread so I'm not sure if anyone has mentioned them but I would be reppin' either SDSU or UCSB. San Diego State is a badass school with great vibes and UC Santa Barbara is a huge party school in the best location- Santa Barbara. Not to mention that UCSB is the only university in the nation to have its own private beach.
Gonna be a freshman at Colgate University. YEEEEE NiKKA

also at fairfield you can cop a beach house to live in, all the dope parties are there.

Private schools are good. either your family's filthy rich, or you didn't take time to apply for financial aid

Details of how fisheries are managed in marine protected areas
To bring fisheries in line with other activities, the Department for Environment, Food and Rural Affairs (Defra) announced on the 14 August 2012 a revised approach to managing fishing activities within European marine sites (EMS). This change in approach will promote sustainable fisheries while conserving the marine environment and resources, securing a sustainable future for both.
A Fisheries in MPAs Implementation Group was set up to manage this new approach to commercial fisheries and includes stakeholders and bodies to make sure the new approach:
- is effective and practical
- meets legal requirements
- considers the effects of management measures available
- has a suitable timetable to achieve the measures
This revised approach will be achieved on a risk-prioritised basis for sites within 12 nautical miles (nm) and will be applied to both UK and non-UK fishing vessels in accordance with EU requirements.
European marine sites (EMS) are designated to protect habitats and species in line with the European Union (EU) habitats directive and birds directive.
EMSs outside 12 nm will require legislative measures to be proposed by the European Commission in accordance with the Common Fisheries Policy (CFP) to ensure adequate protection. For these sites, Defra, taking account of any relevant guidance, intends to submit proposals to the European Commission for any fishery measures needed to ensure site protection is consistent with article 6 of the habitats directive, so that appropriate regulations are in place in 2016.
Management measures have been implemented already by Marine Management Organisation and Inshore Fisheries and Conservation Authorities (IFCA) for high risk sites. Site assessments are currently being undertaken for medium/low risk sites to ascertain whether further management is required by the end of 2016.
Marine Conservation Zones (MCZ) are Marine Protected Areas (MPAs) designed to protect nationally important habitats and species designated under the Marine and Coastal Access Act 2009 (MaCAA). Alongside EMSs, MCZs contribute to an ecologically coherent network of UK MPAs.
On 21 November 2013, Defra designated the first tranche of 27 MCZs
On 30 January 2015 Defra opened a consultation to seek views on whether it would be appropriate to designate each of the 23 proposed MCZs in the second tranche and to add new features for conservation in 10 of the first tranche MCZs.
More details about marine protected areas in the strategic management table.
Other documents, including minutes and information notes from meetings are available from The National Archives.

Those Marquette (Big East) fans will never accept this analysis. They wallow in the past and the BIG conference power is a painful reminder of their future will never be again.
The best conference ever was the Pac 8 in the sixties, when Lew Alcindor and then Bill Walton helped UCLA and John Wooden to an incredible string of domination.

hello my friends. sorry, that sounds like the beginning of a spam email – but i assure you it's not. i haven't posted since launching that amazing Rennes Giveaway earlier this week because i have unfortunately been sick. perhaps that is why this post sounds a bit barmy (it's the painkillers, you see). anyway i wanted to assure you i am still here, and that posting shall be resuming with new vim and vigour. in the meantime, here's what has been up… lately.
Double Tap: Adrian De Sa Garces
one of the cool things about Instagram is seeing what other South Africans are up to on their summer holidays – a lot of people go up the coast, or spend their days on the beach, or go on road trips. others travel further afield, visiting family and friends they don't get to see during the year. a nice way to virtually travel through the country from the comfort of your iPhone.
Cape Town Love
i first noticed Megan & Mike Gilger of The Fresh Exchange when they tagged me in an Instagram photo of their travels in Cape Town – they had been making use of my Cape Town City Guide to discover some cool places to see. i always get the warm and fuzzies when people tell me that the guide helped them in some way, and when anyone visits my city for that matter, so I clicked over to their site and what a nice discovery.
VSCO Grid
if you're a regular iPhone snapper / Instagrammer (or, indeed, a professional photographer) you'll be familiar with VSCO. their original VSCO Cam iPhone app is a favourite of many, with a handful of beautiful film presets and easy editing tools that turn your every day photos into something pretty magical. they just released their updated app (so you can't get the old one anymore) – and it's now free, but features in-app purchases for several film bundles. faded & moody; bright + clean; analog classic… take your pick. i haven't played with it too much, but it is a sweet little app and i know it will help make my pretty average photos on instagram look just that little bit better.
Kevin Russ
perhaps one day if i'm lucky enough i'll get to do a great american road trip, but for now i can live vicariously through the photographs of Kevin Russ. you're probably thinking that these were shot with some rad medium format camera – but they were actually all taken with Kevin's iPhone… i know. you can follow Kevin on instagram, view his mobile photostream, and see his professional work on his flickr and website.

Iron Man 2: Grading, Review, Discussion **SPOILERS**

Re: Iron Man 2: Grading, Review, Discussion **SPOILERS**
Just an average film to me with way to many plot holes and problems. A poorly constructed villian is always a problem in a movie about a super hero and Vanko/Hammer were cardboard villians. The whole Tony dying arc was useless as was its really silly create a new element resolution. The Black Widow parts worked for me and all the fight scenes were pretty well done. I think a reedit of this movie could have made it much stronger. Just moving the slow opening scene would have helped.

How to Paint a Faux Marble Surface
Transform a worn dresser or tabletop using an acrylic painting technique that mimics the look of marble.
Prime the wall with two coats of off-white latex paint, and allow it to dry. Use a pencil and ruler to mark off squares that suggest stone blocks. They can be any size appropriate for the surroundings, but 8" by 16" is the standard size of real blocks.
To add a warm undertone to the wall, apply a limestone-colored wash of latex paints. Mix small amounts of taupe and yellow paint, and thin with water to the consistency of thin soup. Brush the wash freely in all directions, and rub it into the surface with a cloth. Don't strive for a carefully painted finish.
Use three shades for shadowing: taupe for a dark shade, off-white for a medium shade and white for highlighting. Mix each color with water to a watercolor consistency. To make light appear to come from one side, stipple the colors onto the wall in the following pattern: the darker color on the left, the medium in the middle and the light on the right side. Freely dab or stipple the color on the wall, rubbing the color into the surface as you work.
Thin a mixture of creamy taupe and white with water. Using a brush with long bristles, paint the mixture over the pencil lines. The lines should show through to create the look of shadows between the blocks.
Mix an over-glaze by combining glazing liquid, mineral spirits and tinting colors such as raw umber and raw sienna. Brush on the mixture, and rub it in to add texture and the look of age to the wall.
Transform a worn dresser or tabletop using an acrylic painting technique that mimics the look of marble.
Marbling exudes richness and sophistication. It can have a big impact on both walls and furniture.
Add a soft, inviting look to walls with a textured glaze finish that re-creates the look of leather.

A's Trade Analysis: Oakland Acquires Samardzija and Hammel, Deals Russell, McKinney, Straily
The very first reaction to the events that took place today after the A's walked off to a 1-0 victory in the 12th inning, when they decided to trade their 2012 (Addison Russel) and 2013 (Billy McKinney) first round draft picks, along with promising pitcher Dan Straily to the Chicago Cubs in exchange for Jeff Samardzija and Jason Hammel, two of the most coveted pitchers on this year's trading block — WOW!
It's actually easy to both love and hate this trade. It just depends how you look at it, and in the first hour or so after the deal was announced (as I am writing this), I have experienced both emotions to this deal.
Samardzija, 2-7 with a 2.83 ERA and 103 strikeouts in 108 innings, is an ace quality pitcher that easily fits into the top 3 in Oakland's rotation. He's likely automatically the No.1 guy now, though you could make a case for Sonny Gray or Scott Kazmir, and really you aren't going wrong with any of the three.
Hammel, 8-5 with a 2.95 ERA and 104 strikeouts in 108.2 innings, is a tough as nails type pitcher that was asked to start games 1 & 5 of the ALDS in 2012 for the Baltimore Orioles against the New York Yankees. For his career, he is 50-27 when his team scores at least three runs for him (3-34 when his team scores two or less runs). Hammel should thrive with Oakland's offense supporting him, good defense behind him and a solid closer in Sean Doolittle. A side note, that probably played zero percent into the consideration, he was teammates with Jim Johnson in 2012-2013 during Johnson's best seasons as a closer. Perhaps he can provide some comfort level to the A's $10 million bust of a closer.
Aside from the obvious that this gives Oakland a very solid 1-5 in the rotation, it provides some insurance as Sonny Gray and Jesse Chavez approach new career highs in innings-pitched (previously 182.1 for Gray, and Chavez at 103 has already exceeded his previous high of 67.1 during his relieving days).
Hammel is only under contract for the remainder of this season, re-opening a rotation spot in 2015 one of the now deposed A's starters that had been filling those roles (Tommy Milone, Brad Mills, Drew Pomeranz). Samardzija will remain under contract for 2015 in his final year of arbitration before reaching free agency.
The price was steep though.
Billy Beane had to part ways with 2012 first round draft pick Addison Russell and 2013 first round draft pick Billy McKinney, in addition to Dan Straily.
The inclusion of Russell, considered one of the elite prospects in all of minor league ball, and the first real home grown impact caliber position player the A's could have had anchor their lineup is drawing some complaints around social media.
The only thing I can say regarding the inclusion of Russell is that prospects come and go. Some pan out and become stars, others are highly hyped only to burn out and earn the label of busts. I believe that Russell is destined to become a star in this league, but the A's have a window to win right now and Beane is definitely going all-in for a World Series ring with this trade.
A few cliche sayings come to mind, but perhaps most closely related are two: "tomorrow is promised to no one," and "flags fly forever."
Oakland already has four flags flying in the Oakland Coliseum: 1972, 1973, 1974 and 1989. This trade signals that they are aiming to add 2014 to those.
Looking at Beane's track record as GM, one more thing stands out that perhaps explains his willingness to include the shortstop of the future and top outfield and pitching prospects in McKinney and Straily. There's nothing keeping Beane from flipping one of his starters during the offseason to rebuild the farm.
I'll go out on a limb and say that Sonny Gray stays, but Kazmir or Samardzija could be dealt in the offseason to rebuild some of the prospects that were just traded away. The A's will have Jarrod Parker and A.J. Griffin back at some point in 2015, and could look to unload a little of the logjam at starting pitcher to restock their prospects.
Then again, as this year has proven, you can never have enough starting pitching.
The other thing that stands out to me, is that the A's may not be done trading quite yet. With the return of Eric O'Flaherty, Jim Johnson certainly seems expendable if he can rebuild some trade value. Tommy Milone could be a trade piece in a deal for an upgrade at second base, ditto Brad Mills and Drew Pomeranz. I sort of expect the A's to hold onto Milone and Pomeranz, but the inclusion of Russell in a deal reinforces that you never say never with Beane.
Joe Stiglich of Comcast tweeted a quote from Derek Norris: "Ultimately, this may take our team from being near the top, to the top."
For 2014, I'd say it certainly does. The goal is clearly World Series or bust.
For 2015 and beyond, it gives the A's some trade chips to rebuild the farm and stay competitive. With injured players coming back and the depth on the Major League level, it certainly appears the A's will have all they need to retool and keep their window open for at least a few seasons beyond 2014 as well.
"In Billy we trust!" So, I am trusting that he knows what he is doing by trading away the best prospect we have had in a decade in an attempt to win it all now. I have learned Billy is always three steps ahead of everyone that is reporting his moves, so I believe there is a plan in place to recoup what was given up.
I'm certainly starting to set aside some of my paycheck from now through October for what I hope will be a long postseason culminating in the A's reaching the World Series for the first time since 1990. World Series tickets are expensive after all.
After all, that is what this trade was all about.by

i'm an ENFP (or INFP) if that means anything to you. good conversations are pretty much my favourite things. i'm a really curious and passionate person, and find that i'm drawn to people that are similar to me in this way, but i am drawn to people dissimilar to me in most other ways. i like having common ground with people, sure, but what i like even more is learning new things and being exposed to different perspectives. i feel that most relationships work best when there's less of an echoing and more of a balancing out... i'm extremely accepting, and would love to be exposed to new hobbies or art forms or experiences or places or interests or lifestyles.

Happy Spring Wonderlusters!
Spring renewal has hit California with a bang + we have had the most gorgeous flowers in the hills. I believe strongly in getting outside as a way to renew ourselves and connect with our community. I have several camping trips planned with good friends + family. It is definitely going to be an amazing summer.
This year, my eyes have been turning to the heavens. Fueled by Neil DeGrasse Tyson's Cosmos + Star Talk Radio, I picked up my first pair of cosmic binoculars so I can star + moon gaze with my own two eyes. Star gazing is a magical sort of past time, full of dreams + an incredible way to connect with friends outdoors in gorgeous nature. I am so excited to share more of these explorations as summer begins. All this star gazing is inspiring some incredible new pieces and goodies coming for 2015!
In the meantime, there's a few shows coming up. Stop on by and snag a sweet planter to bring some nature home.
Jackalope Art + Craft Fair//
See you soon!
The studio is starting to shape up in a major way. We are just about moved in and now just fine-tuning it to get it ready for movement. Very exciting indeed.
In the meantime, the focus has been on design. I have been gathering visuals, much like raking in leaves as they fall, til there is a nice cushion of inspiration. Imagery and concepts from trips to LACMA (go. right. now.), LA Art Show, and the green California winter hills are dancing in my head + my sketchbook is filling with ideas- new table ware, new kitchen ware, and art objects since it has been oh-so-long.
For your inspiration + perusal:
A-Roma, by Common Studio: The elegantly executed natural environmental project about the flora + fauna in Rome. The excavated and researched, distilling the essence of the place down to a scent.
If you haven't gone, you must see:
Pierre Huyghe at LACMA: A "living" retrospective of this artists work that uses installation, video, live environments, and much more to create a rhythmic experience of the art. Incredible. Take your time!
Samurai at LACMA: Ancient armor from the time of the Samurai! The detail that went into these pieces is awe inspiring.
On my nightstand:
Have the best week ever!
Working as an artist and designer requires consistent pushing forward in both concept + skill + efficiency. A couple things that I'm am absolutely loving:
There is so much on the immediate horizon. Unurth is moving studios to a much larger space + new equipment is on its way! Stay in touch on instagram to follow the journey: @unurthwonder
So, getting married is sort of a thing. It's an amazing thing- a little bit like a black hole in ways. It swirls and whirls and soon, that is all you can see as you get pulled into the vortex (of love, of course!).
We had an itsy bitsy budget, but gathered everyone we love around us to bring it together. It was truly a communal effort and I couldn't imagine it happening any other way.
Yes those are dinos + yes, I made those!
The result? An absolutely magical experience with all the best things and nothing forced. Best day ever. You can view a few more pics over on my photographer's blog: Shurie Jenai
The summer has been quite light here at Unurth, but I am back in the saddle (or pottery stool as it were). I've got weekly shop updates on the horizon.
Are you on instagram? Check me out for everyday inspiration, studio insights, and shop updates! @unurthwonder
Light and love to all of you!
Serendipity was my friend on a recent trip to the bay area. I happened by a show with the gorgeous work of Katherine Rutter. Can I tell you, this is such delicate and lovely work. I am completely in love. She is an artist working out of Arkansas. Take a look!
Show unfortunately has passed, but you can view the rest of the work from the show here: Le Quivive Gallery. You can find her at her website + on instagram @kitrutter.

2014 Pro Bowl Rosters: 5 Quarterbacks Who Deserved a Spot Over Tom Brady
2013 Pro Bowl Rosters: 5 Quarterbacks Who Deserved a Spot Over Tom Brady
With the 2013 Pro Bowl rosters being announced, I have a bit of a beef with New England Patriots quarterback Tom Brady being named to the team. Of course, this season is the first year the voting was "un-conferenced," meaning that it did not matter if an even amount of players from each conference made the team at a particular position.
Brady endured a tough season with the Patriots -- not record-wise, but just getting to this point was difficult. I'll give him that. Losing Rob Gronkowski for the season again, after playing without him for the first few games of the year, was a huge blow. Brady's number one security blanket has not been on the field for the majority of play this year, and that hurts especially when Aaron Hernandez is no longer in uniform.
Not only was Gronkowski injured, but Danny Amendola struggled to stay healthy at times and therefore put the pressure on an unproven wide receiving corps including two rookies. Brady, through it all, was able to muster up win after win and is heading to the postseason again. That is nothing short of impressive.
But, when looking at the best quarterbacks in the game this season, I wonder why Brady was chosen. It certainly could not be based solely on stats, which many believe is the determining factor in most votes. Brady was actually rather mediocre for most of the year, which was odd to watch.
With that said, there were a few guys that could have gotten into the Pro Bowl that did not. Those "snubs" may very well have been a better option than Brady, and here they are.
5. Matthew Stafford
Matthew Stafford had more yards, touchdowns and more yards per attempt than Brady yet did not make it in. Why? Most of it is based solely on Brady's popularity, but Stafford also plays for a Detroit Lions team in one of the worst divisions in football at the moment.
4. Tony Romo
Tony Romo had seven more touchdowns on the year (31) than Brady, more yards per attempt and about a 4-percent better completion rate. Why wasn't he voted in? It's simple: Romo's reputation of being a bad quarterback got the best of him, when he actually had one of the best seasons out of any quarterback in the entire NFL.
3. Ben Roethlisberger
Like Romo, Ben Roethlisberger had a better rating than Brady. Also like Romo, Roethlisberger posted more touchdowns, more yards per attempt and a better completion percentage. Unfortunately, he was the only bright spot on a pretty poor Pittsburgh Steelers team in 2013.
2. Andy Dalton
Andy Dalton may have had a couple of off games this season but, as a whole, this year was an unbelievable one for him. Dalton, like Romo and Roethlisberger, tossed seven more touchdowns (31) than Brady, threw for more yards per attempt, finished with a better rating and a better completion percentage. But, again, Brady made it in based on his name.
1. Nick Foles
Probably one of the biggest snubs in the history of the game, Nick Foles was left out because he only started nine games this season. However, he still finished with more touchdowns (25), over two more yards per attempt (9.03), a better completion percentage and, get this: The best quarterback rating in the entire NFL at 118.8.

While flying to Santa Catalina Island, schoolteacher and amateur detective Hildegarde Withers witnesses the sudden death of fellow passenger Roswell T. Forrest. Although Britt, the Catalina police chief, insists that Forrest died of a heart attack, Hildegarde is confident that Forrest was murdered and wires her friend, Inspector Oscar Piper, in New York City. There, Oscar learns that Forrest was to be a state's witness against a gang of mobsters, and that a mobster named McArthur was offering $10,000 for Forrest's death. Convinced now that Forrest was murdered, Britt begins to question the plane passengers, which include Joseph B. Tate, a motion picture director, would-be actress Phyllis La Font, newlyweds Kay and Marvin Deving, and Captain Beegle, a retired rumrunner. In front of the suspects, Hildegarde theorizes that Forrest was poisoned and establishes that several of the witnesses had the opportunity to kill him. Soon after, Oscar arrives and discovers that Forrest's body has been stolen from the police station. Sure that the killer is always the least likely suspect, Oscar accuses the Devings of the crime until Hildegarde informs him that Tate, who had offered Forrest a drink from his whiskey flask, had been covering up the fact that his flask had a secret compartment. In addition, Kay reveals the next day that she saw the plane's pilots apparently stealing Forrest's body from the station. After Oscar unsuccessfully grills the pilots and Tate, Hildegarde discovers that Arthur T. Mack, a fellow hotel guest, has left an envelope containing $10,000 in a post office box and assumes that Arthur T. Mack is an alias for McArthur. Then, Marvin is shot and killed in the Avalon casino as he is about to reveal information about Forrest. Eventually, Oscar and Hildegarde determine that the man who called himself Forrest actually was named Kelsey, and that the real Forrest, who has arrived on the island, hired Kelsey to impersonate him. After Hildegarde finds a pack of poisoned cigarettes and confronts Mack about the murder, Mack is killed. On a hunch, Hildegarde takes Oscar to see Kay and offers her a cigarette from the poisoned pack. Kay nervously turns down the cigarette and then draws a gun on Hildegarde. Overcome by Oscar, Kay confesses that Marvin had slipped Kelsey a poison cigarette on the plane, then was murdered by Mack, whose crime was avenged by Kay.

Hi all:
I've been riding - on and off - for well over 30 years and am solidly in the 50+ group here at the Forums. Just recently finished building up a Surly Long Haul Trucker (LHT) in anticipation of doing my first bit of touring with my daughter sometime in March. I live in the East Bay of the greater San Francisco Bay area, so if you see a light blue LHT with bright red panniers laboring along that's probably me getting used to the bike!

Hey guys,
I don't know how to bunny hop at all, but Im a quick learner. I see people saying that you lift your front and quickly push down on it to level the bike out. I can't seeem to do it all I end up is sending the front wheel down. DO I need clipless pedals or anything? Because I use those platform pedal that come with bikes priced 400 CDN and lower.
Btw, I found a womens rigid no-model-name norco, for trash riding, as my current bike in the store for warranty purposes. Plus, if this thing breaks...noone was using it anyways!

The "Dying" Science Station
View Single Post
September 19 2012, 11:58 PM
Re: The "Dying" Science Station
I figure they just wanted to restore the key bridge stations to something closer to their TOS layout; both science and engineering were moved in TWOK to approximately the same locations they'd had in TOS (although the environmental engineering station, which started out in roughly its TOS-equivalent location in TMP, got bumped to the opposite side of the bridge to make room for engineering).
Also, I imagine that having Spock's station directly behind Kirk may have been limiting in terms of direction and framing; it would be awkward to have Kirk constantly having to turn around to talk to Spock, or to set up a two-shot of them talking to each other with both their faces at least somewhat visible. Moving Spock off to the side probably made that easier.
To be precise, four stations were moved between TMP and TWOK: science displaced engineering, which displaced environmental engineering, which displaced internal security, which took the place of science.

AUDUSD Breakout Of Support - More Downside? Feb 6th 0 commentsFeb 6, 2013 9:12 PM
Hello Traders,
After a really choppy start to this month, the AUDUSD has finally taken out a key support level in 1.0357, which it broke through on an impulsive leg down. The pair found support and some buyers at the round number of 1.0300, but i'm not really convinced by the small back to back pin bars.
I'll look for a corrective pullback setup towards the role reversal level at 1.0357, along with a 20ema on the 4hr chart, to sell the pair, targeting 1.0300, 1.0236 and 1.0163 should the downside momentum pick up steam.Themes: audusd, $AUD, breakout pullback setup, chris capre, 2ndskiesforex.comBack To Chris Capre's Instablog HomePage »
