Angie's Answers
That's very difficult to answer without seeing the house. As one poster said, the prep is the most important part. On newer homes that don't have a lot of peeling paint, the prep can be very minimal even as low as a couple or a few hundred dollars for the prep labor.
On a 100 year old home with 12 coats of peeling paint on it, then the prep costs can be very high and can easily exceed 50% of the job's labor cost.
A 2100 sq ft two story home could easily cost $1000 just for the labor to prep for the paint job. That number could climb too. Throw in lots of caullking or window glazing, and you could be talking a couple or a few hundred dollars more for labor.
Painting that home with one coat of paint and a different color on the trim could run roughly $1000 or more just for labor. Add a second coat and that could cost close to another $1000 for labor.
For paint, you may need 20 gallons of paint. You can pay from $30-$70 for a gallon of good quality exterior paint. The manufacturer of the paint should be specified in any painting contract. Otherwise, the contractor could bid at a Sherwin-Williams $60 per gallon paint and then paint the house with $35 Valspar and pocket the difference. $25 dollars per gallon times 20 gallons? That's a pretty penny too.
That was the long answer to your question. The short answer is $2000 to $4000 and up, depending upon the amount of prep, the number of coats, the amount of trim, and the paint used.
Remember, you not only have to remove the popcorn texture, but also redo the ceiling in some other texture.
Price will depend on several factors:
1) how much the contractor you choose hates removing popcorn or textured ceilings - some charge $1 or so/SF extra just because they hate it. There are even some who bid total drywall replacement cheaper than removing the popcorn, so you have to first find contractors who are happy to do that work, or your prices will be out of the realistic range
2) if the popcorn predates about 1990, then it could likely have asbestos in it, which doubles or triples the price, and in many cases uncapsulating it with a spray coating and then removing the drywall entirely is actually cheaper than all the protective measures necessary if it is scraped off.
3) whether the popcorn is primarily gypsum and vermiculite (comes off REAL easy) or was the plaster of paris variety, which takes a fair amount of soaking to soften it enough to scrape off
4) what type of finish you are replacing it with - if a textured ceiling, slapcoat, knockdown finish or paneling, not real problem. If you want to go with a perfectly smooth ceiling (generally a bad idea as any variations in the drywall on a ceiling surface really shows up dramatically), then it will demand a lot of care in preparing the scraped surface, and a complete surface drywall compound skim coat to smooth out the scrapes and gouges from the removal process.
5) what underlying conditions are - if there is a lot of furniture to move around (should go to adjacent rooms) or cover and work around, high-quality rug or hardwood floor to super-protect or such, will drive cost up.
I have seen costs run from as low as $0.60/SF to $1.25/SF (for removal only). Generally, remove and recoat with a surface texture of some kind (anything but smooth) and paint will run you about $2.50-3.50/SF.
Now the bad news - if asbestos containing, can run from $5-10/SF. Many homeowners in that situation go the other legal route - have it encapsulated with an asbestos-rated sealant by an asbestos contractor, then paint it and leave it for the next homeowner to decide what to do about it. Some contractors encapsulate it and then put a 1/4" thick drywall layer over it - this usually looks like a disaster unless it has a VERY rough textured finish on it, because putting drywall sheet over a rough surface like popcorn invariably means a wavy surface commonly looks like a gently rolling ocean surface.
Our companie's policy is to prime the area with any bonding primer. This will seal the hairspray in and not let it affect the next coat of paint. It would also be a good idea to lightly sand the area first.
Our recommendation for primer would be Zinsser's BIN Spray (red can) and can be bought at most paint stores or home improvement stores. Other than that, any thing that specifically says "bonding" for a primer should be adequate enough.
Some other 1 coat coverage paints you could use would be Sherwin Williams Duration, and Behr Ultra Premium Plus.
Hope this helps!
I have a couple suggestions - My first would have been to contact the paint manufacturer - whether it's sherwin williams, benjamin moore, behr, etc. to see if they would send a rep out to give their recommendation. We have done this before starting a project to get the best possible recommendation for work to be done and have found them to be very helpful in diagnosing what is currently going on and the best way to fix it.
If that doesn't work, I would call either the better business bureau or maybe the local paper if your contractor isn't willing to work through the problem with you. Also, If your contractor warrantied the work I might re-read that to see what they cover if anything.
My guess is that there will have to be some sort of dispute resolution process.
Hope this helps!

German Aid for Afghan Children(GAAC) draws on extensive experience of organizing affected people, following the 2005 earthquake in Pakistan and working with them to extend relief and rehabilitation support. "Looking at the desperate situation the people of Pakistan are facing today, we realized that this gigantic task can only be tackled if everyone pitches in with whatever resources they have" said Dr. Reinhard Erös, President GAAC Germany. This NGO has been working on the basis of education and medical supply in small towns and villages with UNO, NATO and other international aid organizations in India, Bangladesh, Cambodia, Pakistan, Afghanistan, Iran, Albania, Rwanda and East Timor. Since its foundation in 1998, the organization has supported Afghan children and women in east Afghanistan by establishing medical and educational units. The NGO is not government funded but relies on the German people such as students, doctors, engineers, laborers and even the poor.
"Currently we are providing food rations including flour, oil, pulses, tea, sugar, milk and water. These are immediate steps to relieve some of the basic problems of hunger; however there is a need to look beyond the current catastrophe and see what is to be done for the rehabilitation of thousands of people." added Dr. Reinhard Erös. The objectives of GAAC Relief Aid is to extend relief assistance to people affected by the 2010 floods in Pakistan by providing shelter – construction materials such as cement, brick or corrugated iron sheets including electricity and solar cooking equipment, and also helping farmers to restart their farming by providing goats, seeds, fertilizers etc, to them. The GAAC current aid package is to reach 1000 people in Khyber Pakhtunkhwa.
News and recent developments
- January 2011: The flood affected Pakistani people of Swat received solar-powered energy generators for electricity and solar-powered cooking equipment, funded by a leading Berlin-based non-governmental organization, German Aid for Afghan Children (GAAC). The organization has begun a one million Euros worth relief and reconstruction work in the Khyber Pakhtunhwa's districts worst hit by floods. GAAC had announced in 2010 the distribution of solar-powered lithium-ion batteries to generate electricity and solar cooking equipment for the planned 1000 families of Swat, Nowshera, Pabbi and Bannu districts. More Information... - Right Vision News
- August 2010: In the wake of recent flooding in Pakistan, German Aid for Afghan Children (GAAC) has increased its aid efforts by providing building materials for new housing, and some simple prefabricated shelters. The houses will include solar powered lithium-ion batteries, generating electricity for the family living in the house, and also solar cooking equipment, which will ease the difficulty of cooking foods. This will help prevent further deforestation, as residents struggle to find cooking fuel. German NGO launches relief work in Pakistan - The Daily Mail

Gifted humans
Revision as of 13:50, March 3, 2013 by Charmed-Jay (Talk | contribs)

Throughout the Twilight series, gifted humans are humans who manifest special abilities, qualities, personality traits or strong desires before they are turned into vampires. After they are turned, that ability or desire will likely magnify into a supernatural talent. The more clearly it manifests in human form, the more powerful it becomes in vampire form.
Notable gifted humans
Such humans have made numerous appearances.
- Bella Swan is capable of shielding herself from a mentally gifted vampire. As a vampire, she becomes able to extend her shield and protect others beside herself. Her power was seemingly inherited from her father.
- Charlie Swan manifests a mental defense that reduces the effects of a psychic influence on his mind. This trait was later passed down to his much more powerful daughter Bella. Though he is gifted, he does not become a vampire.
- Edward Cullen had been able to read people very accurately as a human. As a vampire, it evolved into an ability to read other people's minds, both human and vampire.
- Alice Cullen was gifted with weak but predictable visions of the future. Her predictions weren't always certain and mostly manifested as feelings, but at times she could see them in visions when the future was set. This ability brought to her names and bad reputation as a human. After becoming a vampire, her visions were heightened and allowed her to see the future much more clearly, though it still had flaws.
- Jasper Hale was very charismatic as a human and he was able to persuade others to think his way. After Maria changed him, his charismatic nature became a supernatural talent that allowed him to feel and influence the feelings of those around him.
- Jane and Alec manifested unclear powers to the people around them while they were children. They were able to bring fortune to those who treated them nicely and misfortune to those who treated them otherwise. Aro was told of the twins' latent potential and hoped to change them when they were older. He was forced to change them sooner than expected, when their village accused them of witchcraft and condemned them to burn at the stake. By experiencing the burning pain, the twins' powers took manifested form - Alec focused on escaping the pain while Jane wanted others to feel it. After they became vampires, their powers made them the most valuable members of the Volturi guard.
- James was a skilled and powerful hunter as a human - he was trained to hunt and trap by his father. This skill earned him title and fame in the nearby areas. After he was transformed, this skill manifested a powerful sensory that allowed him to detect his prey's movements and track them down.
- Victoria led an abusive human life: her employers often assaulted her for any fault or just by being visible. To survive, she learned to sneak and hide from her pursuers, and then survive on her own by stealing food without notice. After she became a vampire, this self-preservation turned into a power that allowed her to sense and evade danger. Unlike most gifted vampires, her power wasn't naturally born with. Instead, her abusive life perfected her ability to survive.
- Benjamin was known to have been an extraordinarily gifted human since he was a child, due to his power to control the natural elements. His distant uncle used his gift for street performance, which prompted Amun to change him. As a human, he only controlled fire, but he began to manifest the other elements after becoming a vampire.
- Maggie was born with the ability to sense whether someone was lying, which manifested much more sharply after she was changed by Siobhan.
- Alistair was a skilled hunter as a human and enjoyed the company of falcons more than people. By becoming a vampire, his skill turned into a power to feel an elusive gravitational pull to whatever he seeks.
- Fred shunned all social contact and became emotionally and physically distant from people. As a vampire, his withdrawal turned into a power that allowed him to drive away pursuers by inflicting them with a sense of repulsion.
- Raoul was a gang leader as a human. When he became a vampire, his sense of superiority became a power to draw weak minded people to him and make them view him as their leader.
- Kate was trained to be a bodyguard loyal to whomever she is assigned to protect. As a vampire, her protective instinct allowed her to mentally shock people.
- Didyme, Marcus's deceased wife, had as a human the dormant ability to induce happiness in others, which prompted her with many suitors. After she changed, it manifested much more strongly. Whoever was with her was always influenced by her happy aura.

Greetings, Program! Welcome to Tron Wiki! Thanks for your edit to the Rinzler page.
Please leave a message on my talk page if I can help with anything! -- WarBlade (Talk) 01:30, 26 March 2012
Please use the Preview function before publishing edits. It tends to help prevent mistakes and numerous fixes. ;) -- WarBlade 20:58, March 27, 2012 (UTC)
Yeah, sorry about that. I had only just discovered the Preview. I'll be much better about that from now on. Jeyo 21:14, March 27, 2012 (UTC)
Rezzing Pics
Good job on the pics that show the stages rezzing a light cycle and a light jet! Keep up the good work! - DaftPunkGuy
Thank you! 20:06, April 3, 2012 (UTC)
Please use the complete infoboxes when adding an infobox to a page. You can copy them from the code box on each relevant template page. -- WarBlade 21:16, April 17, 2012 (UTC)
- What do you mean by the "complete infoboxes"? To use all the spaces in the infobox? Jeyo 22:16, April 17, 2012 (UTC)
- Copy the infobox parameters from the appropriate infobox template page. Adding "Template" to the front is superfluous, so there's no need to do that. Lastly, please stop filling in the "Name" parameter - that defaults to {{PAGENAME}}, so the Name parameter is just for providing an alternative for things like unnecessary disambiguations appearing the box name. -- WarBlade 22:53, April 19, 2012 (UTC)
- You've ignored my request ("Stun Pike" article). When using templates, please get the appropriate code from the template page you're using. It looks like you've been copying from other page sources instead, and this just make a small mess bigger. -- WarBlade 05:42, April 22, 2012 (UTC)
- Sorry--I have a confusion: When you say "codes" do you mean the "Magic words" option? If so, I didn't see the appropiate code for the equipment template for Stun Pike. Jeyo 06:24, April 22, 2012 (UTC)
- There is a link at the bottom of the infobox labelled "[Source]" (at the moment - I'm planing on removing those at some point). This will take you to the template page associated with the template you click from. You'll see the code box under the heading "Usage". -WarBlade 06:36, April 22, 2012 (UTC)
- Cool, I'm pretty sure I get it now. Thanks. Jeyo 17:44, April 22, 2012 (UTC)
- In that particular case you'd want to take advantage of the Name parameter to remove the disambiguation term, "(TRON: Uprising)" from the infobox heading, but otherwise it was fine. -- WarBlade 06:50, April 23, 2012 (UTC)
- Oh, yeah. Forgot that. But now I know how to do it correctly, so all is well. :) Jeyo 07:10, April 23, 2012 (UTC)
Conversations with DaftPunkGuy
Awesome pictures
You're more awesome though... You've never got banned before! - DaftPunkGuy
Blog post: Light Ship?
I've always wondered if there could be more to the world of TRON... The Sea of Simulation. We know very little about this region of the Grid. It could be the area that makes up most of the Grid like Earth is mostly surounded by water. So vehicles similar to our ships and boats could be used to explore their sea. According to TRON: Betrayal the ISOs pretty much came out of the Sea of Simulation. Also in the first TRON movie Grid Bugs are seen rezzing from the Sea of Simulation. These are two examples of lifeforms from their sea. The Sea of Simulation could contain many other unexplored lifeforms. And so I would assume boats and ships were created on the Grid to explore the depths of the Sea of Simulation..... that was the last time we saw Tron. - DaftPunkGuy
Haha! So we both thought of the same name?!! - DaftPunkGuy
- Yeah! I thought: Clu's command ship, so Tessler's Command Ship. And I see your point about the need for Light Ships to explore the Sea. By the way, you upload great pictures. Jeyo 20:11, May 14, 2012 (UTC)
Gallery Pages...?
Why is WarBlade removing galleries from pages? ~ DaftPunkGuy
- He says it'll "prevent excess uploading" and it's obeying Wikia's request or something...I don't really know why, myself. And please sign your name with the four tildes (Jeyo 20:02, June 4, 2012 (UTC)). Jeyo 02:09, May 24, 2012 (UTC)
Removed Pages
Why has the page called Able's Garage been removed? It is a VERY important location. It's not just a garage, it's Beck and his friends' home. - DaftPunkGuy
- I don't know. He's merged Argon Park and Able's Garage with the Argon City page and I have no idea why. I agree with you, though. And sign your name. Jeyo 20:02, June 4, 2012 (UTC)
- I suggest you ask him. Jeyo 23:33, June 4, 2012 (UTC)
What time is it where you live? Posted at 12:52 AM by DaftPunkGuy

Old Blog Post
Check out my recently added comment to the old blog post I made called Similar Pictures?!!!. I have a question that you might be able to answer for me. DaftPunkGuy
Okay. Jeyo 19:28, June 13, 2012 (UTC)
Where did you find the pick of the so-called snowmobile? It looks really cool! DaftPunkGuy
It just came out! Disney's website! Jeyo 19:39, June 14, 2012 (UTC)
What section of the website? DaftPunkGuy
http://disney.go.com/disneyxd/ Jeyo 19:44, June 14, 2012 (UTC)
What do you think this vehicle should be called? It appeared in TRON: Legacy and TRON: Uprising. It is definitely not a Grid Limo because it resembles a truck more than a car. This vehicle has wheels also and Grid Limos do not. If you want to see a better quality picture of the vehicle from TRON: Legacy, go to the scene where Sam and Jem are about to go to the elevator that leads up to the EOLC. I believe it serves the same purpose as a Grid Limo. The only differences are it isn't a luxury vehicle, it resembles a truck more than a car, and it has wheels. DaftPunkGuy
- The thing on the left looks to me like a cargo transport. On the right...I don't know. It's not the same vehicle, though; it looks like a platform with wheels. Jeyo 19:58, June 16, 2012 (UTC)
- I think it is the same vehicle because of similar features. Look at the wheels. They both have wheels with triangles inside on both pictures. They are also both seen in the streets of cities. Grid Limos come in different shapes and colors also. DaftPunkGuy
- See my answer: http://tron.wikia.com/wiki/User_blog:DaftPunkGuy/Unamed_Vehicles_(PAY_FULL_ATTENTION!)#comm-10398

New Articles
Please do not create new articles unless there is actually a subject out there to research and document. We've only put "light guns" in the infoboxes for lack of a better description. -- WarBlade 03:03, May 25, 2012 (UTC)
- Okay, sure. But there was more to discover or research about Light Guns and technically, they are canon: What of Castor's cane? Jeyo 03:19, May 25, 2012 (UTC)
- It was a poor idea for an article, but there's enough there now that I'm inclined to let it stand. -- WarBlade 03:25, May 25, 2012 (UTC)
- What do you mean? You deleted it, didn't you? Jeyo 05:40, May 25, 2012 (UTC)
- I was referring to Castor's cane. -- WarBlade 06:27, May 25, 2012 (UTC)
- Oh, that. Jeyo 06:43, May 25, 2012 (UTC)
Never really got to introduce myself properly :P Nice to meet a fellow Star Wars fan! Don't suppose you keep up to date with the SW: TCW tv show? ARC-3827 "Tal" (Communications) 12:00, May 25, 2012 (UTC)
- Very nice to meet you *shakes hand* :). I do keep up to date with it, actually, and I notice that they're getting better all the time.. Jeyo 16:05, May 25, 2012 (UTC)
- Couldn't agree more! Pretty big stuff going on recently, especially with the return of Darth Maul! :D ARC-3827 "Tal" (Communications) 23:07, May 25, 2012 (UTC)
- Yeah. Though I really don't like the whole "Ahsoka Tano" idea. Jeyo 02:27, May 26, 2012 (UTC)
- Really? Most people like it but then again nobody's the same so I don't blame you. Personally, I wasn't sure how the idea was going to work out. :/ Now, I'm just waiting to see what happens to her (how she dies, etc.) considering we don't see her in Episode III ROTS. The same goes for Captain Rex as Commander Appo is the Commanding Officer of the 501st in ROTS. I'm hoping Fives returns in Season Five. He's come a long way even after Echo's tragic death. ARC-3827 "Tal" (Communications) 11:32, May 27, 2012 (UTC)
- Yes, I'm also waiting to see what'll happen. I just hope they don't find some way for the characters to live or something: they have a habit of doing that. Ventress should have died already and if the show had been anywhere near truthful Ahsoka would have died like 5 times already, but this is the most insane: She held back a Trandoshan's knife blow to her head after being slammed into a wall. Trandoshans are as strong as Wookies so there is NO WAY she could have survived that. Jeyo 18:13, May 27, 2012 (UTC)
- About now, someone would've commented "She's a Jedi! Of course she survived!" But I agree with you. There's no way she could've survived the encounter. ARC-3827 "Tal" (Communications) 02:13, May 28, 2012 (UTC)

Yo :) Sorry but I figured I'd message you here since you're active on this wiki. It's going great! :D Currently, I also edit on this wiki: http://clonewarsfannon.wikia.com/wiki/Special:WikiActivity. A wiki meant for fan-made characters in the SW universe and stuff like that. ARC-3827 "Tal" (Communications) 04:51, June 3, 2012 (UTC)

- Dunno if I have the time though...It was an idea but not a realistic one. Jeyo 17:26, June 13, 2012 (UTC)
- If you decide to make one, I'd be happy to help out. :) I'd make one myself but it's a little tiresome for me. I treat editing more like a hobby rather than a job. ARC-3827 "Tal" (Communications) 02:32, June 14, 2012 (UTC)
- Yeah, same. Jeyo 02:45, June 14, 2012 (UTC)
Guardsman edit
Hi! Why did you undo my edit to the guardsman page? I had that there so users wouldn't get confused about what he's doing in the picture!!! Colmyo 18:26, June 12, 2012 (UTC)
- I did it because he actually wasn't about to strike Beck. He was standing in a defensive position moments after Beck had started running away because the Light Rail was turning going down. Jeyo 18:20, June 12, 2012 (UTC)
- Oh. Thanks! Colmyo 18:26, June 12, 2012 (UTC)

The state of Ohio is known for producing great linebackers and the 2013 class seems to have a handful of outstanding prospects at the position once again. Youngstown (Ohio) Cardinal Mooney product Courtney Love certainly falls into that category as the 6-foot-1, 222-pound prospect is part of a loaded junior class at Mooney that also includes division I safety prospect Marcus McWilson. Already, Love is hearing from some of the top programs in the nation. "UCLA came to my school," Love explained. "Cincinnati, Michigan, Michigan State, Minnesota, Louisville, Navy, Notre Dame, and NC State (are also showing interest)." Love got some exciting news this week as he picked up his first verbal scholarship offer from Nebraska. "It's really exciting," said Love of the Nebraska offer. "I knew they wanted to offer me but that they wanted to see what I did on the field so I was happy to see that they (offered)." Nebraska already has two players from Cardinal Mooney on the roster in running back Braylon Heard and wide receiver Tim Marlowe. The Huskers join another Midwest power with some Mooney ties in Love's early top two. "I like Ohio State and Nebraska," Love said. On Ohio State - "I got a recruiting questionnaire from them about three weeks ago and I've talked to coach (Nick) Siciliano. I love their coaches and I love their defense." On Nebraska - "I love the defense. They've got a great team and I'm also happy that they moved into the Big Ten this year, that's a big plus." Love is glad to have his first offer on the board and is hoping to check out Nebraska during the fall. "It's definitely a big weight off my shoulders and off my family's shoulders," Love said. "I want to go down (to Nebraska) and hopefully get a chance to check it out. We've got a couple of kids down there from Mooney and I know coach Bo (Pelini) pretty well so I think it will be exciting." While Nebraska's big news this off-season was its move to the Big Ten conference, Ohio State has been in the news a lot as the school waits to hear its final punishment from the NCAA. Love says that the NCAA situation hasn't affected his feelings towards Ohio State. "I haven't really paid too much attention to it," he said. "I still like the team no matter what." On the field, Cardinal Mooney got a huge win on Saturday in its season opener against Canton McKinley. The Cards have a monster schedule this season, but the expectations are just as high as ever. "Our expectations every year is to win state and to compete against the best teams," he said. "(The schedule) is very exciting. Every week we get better and better and practice harder and harder and work towards our goal of winning the state championship."

Well, start with that mountain range, and have said river flow to the coastline. Think of the river flowing from high to low. Pretty much anywhere will do, as long as they don't branch off or go uphill. You can have multiple rivers start at your mountains and converge, so that 3 start, but join into 1 river by the time they reach the coast.

The maker of Twinkies and Ding Dongs said late Tuesday that it failed to reach an agreement with its second-biggest union and will return to bankruptcy court.
NEW YORK (AP) _ Hostess Brands Inc. lived to die another day.
The maker of Twinkies and Ding Dongs said late Tuesday that it failed to reach an agreement with its second-biggest union. As a result, Hostess plans to continue with a hearing on Wednesday in which a bankruptcy court judge in White Plains, N.Y., will decide if the company can shutter its operations.
The renewed talks between Hostess and The Bakery, Confectionery, Tobacco Workers and Grain Millers International Union came after the company declared last week that it would move to wind down its business and start selling off its assets in bankruptcy court. The company cited a crippling strike that was started on Nov. 9 by the union, which represents 30 percent of Hostess workers.
After making its case to liquidate on Monday, the bankruptcy court judge noted that the two sides hadn't yet tried resolving their differences through private mediation. The judge noted that 18,000 jobs were on the line and urged the company and union to try to resolve their differences. Both sides agreed to hold mediation proceedings on Tuesday.
In a statement late Tuesday, Hostess said it would not comment on the breakdown in talks other than to say that mediation "was unsuccessful." A lawyer for the bakers union said he had no comment, citing mediation ground rules.
Hostess shut down its three dozen plants late last week after it said the strike by the bakers union hurt its ability to maintain normal production. The union says the company's demise was the result of years of mismanagement, however, and that workers have already given steep concessions over the years.
Hostess, weighed down by management turmoil, rising labor costs and Americans' changing tastes, is making its second trip through Chapter 11 bankruptcy restructuring. Even if Hostess goes out of business, its popular brands will likely find a second life after being snapped up by buyers. The company says several potential buyers have expressed interest in the brands.

Gretchen C. Daily.
Source: The Sophie Foundation. Gretchen C. Daily is Associate Professor in the Department of Biological Sciences, Director of the Tropical Research Program of the Center for Conservation Biology, and a Senior Fellow at the Institute for International Studies at Stanford University.
An ecologist by training, Dr. Daily works to develop a scientific basis—and political and institutional support—for managing Earth's life support systems. Her efforts span basic science, environmental policy analysis, teaching, and public education.
Upon receiving her Ph.D. in Biological Sciences from Stanford University in 1992, Dr. Daily was granted the Frances Lou Kallman Award for Excellence in Science and Graduate Study; and in 1994, she was then named a Pew Fellow in Conservation and the Environment. She became a fellow of the Aldo Leopold Leadership Program in 1999; and, a recipient of the 21st Century Scientist Award in 2000. In 2003, was named a Smith Senior Scholar of the Nature Conservancy, and a Fellow of the American Academy of Arts and Sciences.
In 2008, she received the Sophie Prize. The Sophie Foundation recognized Daily for her leadership in ". . . the debate on sustainable development and conservation of biological diversity. As a scientist she has shown that there are different ways to put a value on nature. She has shown us that there are also economical arguments for conserving species and eco-systems and demonstrated how this dimension can be included in political decisions. She is an outstanding scientist with a personal strength that has contributed new depth to the eco-system thinking/approach."
Dr. Daily has published over 125 scientific and popular articles. Her most recent book is The New Economy of Nature: The Quest to Make Conservation Profitable, coauthored with journalist Katherine Ellison (2002, Island Press). Her other books are Nature's Services: Societal Dependence on Natural Ecosystems (Daily, G, Ed., 1997, Island Press) and The Stork and the Plow: The Equity Solution to the Human Dilemma (Ehrlich, P, A Ehrlich, and G Daily, 1995, Putnam Press). She has served on the board of editors for Ecological Applications, Ecological Economics, Ecosystems, and the Encyclopedia of Biodiversity.
Dr. Daily's primary scientific efforts concern the future course of extinction, the resulting changes in the delivery of ecosystem services, and novel opportunities for biodiversity conservation. She is developing Countryside Biogeography, a framework for forecasting changes in biodiversity, supported by field research, remote sensing, and theoretical modeling. Also, Dr. Daily is investigating Ecosystem Services, assessing their dependence on biodiversity, their susceptibility to human impacts, and priorities for their conservation. Finally, Dr. Daily is developing an interdisciplinary framework in Conservation Finance, for assessing the scope and efficacy of diverse institutional mechanisms that aim to align economic incentives with conservation.
Through university teaching, public speaking, and communication through the media, Dr. Daily conveys the importance and relevance of environmental science to diverse audiences. She continues to work extensively with economists, lawyers, business people, and government agencies to incorporate environmental issues into business practice and government policy.

In the Knicker of Time! is the fifth episode of Pokémon Advanced.
Brock is ready to travel again and has joined up with Ash, May and Max as the journey on towards Rustboro City. In the forest they encounter a giant Zigzagoon, which they soon realize is actually a trainer in a Zigzagoon suit. Nicholai the Knickerbocker is a trainer that believes in becoming one with Pokémon in order to understand them. While battling, he wears a costume of whichever Pokémon he is using. When not dressed as a Pokémon, he wears knickers in order to be closer to nature. Nicholai is very excited to learn that May is the daughter of the Petalburg Gym leader. He challenges her to a battle and quickly defeats her. Nicholai taunts her for losing, saying that he doesn't think her father will be difficult to beat since she is such an inexperienced trainer. Brock, Ash and May shrug off the defeat and continue on their way, but Max is furious. Without telling anyone, he goes off in search of Nicholai to defend his father's honor—but what will happen when he gets in trouble with a pack of angry Zigzagoon?
Ash battles a trainer who has got a Beedrill. Pikachu attacks with Thunderbolt and defeats Beedrill. After the battle, Max complaints about how Ash should've used Quick Attack. During a moment, a Zigzagoon runs before them. Max notices that it is quite larger than a normal Zigzagoon should be. As they notice a pack of Zigzagoons, a man comes, removing his Zigzagoon disguise. May thinks that Zigzagoon evolves into humans...
The man is bringing Mudkip out, but May comes to analyze the man, marking him as a human, however, the Zigzagoon flees away. The man yells at May and Max, but notices they have knickers, so he introduces himself - wearing many costumes, he can be a Tentacruel, Zigzagoon or any other Pokemon, but says that his true name is Nicholai. He mistakes May and Max to be Knickerbockers (people who expose their knees to nature). Nicholai is then introduced to the gang, but pays attenton only to May and Max. He answers that he wears Pokemon suits to feel what it is to be a Pokemon so he may capture them much more easily so he may challenge the Petalburg City's Gym Leader.
As Nicholai hears that May and Max are Norman's children, he challenges May to a fight. May acts reclusive, but when Nicholai says she's afraid, she accepts the challenge. Nicholai brings his Mudkip out to fight and dresses as a Mudkip. May brings her Torchic out and announces the Torchic to fight, but Torchic is confused as it does not know which attack to use. May ordrs to attack with Ember while Nicholai orders to attack with Water Gun. May then orders to attack with Peck, but Mudkip blasts Torchic with Water Gun attack, ending the battle.
Nicholai thinks that when he captures a Zigzagoon, he'll beat Norman as he beat his daughter, so he goes away. Team Rocket spy on Nicholai, planning to take his Mudkip. May is depressed by the defeat, but Ash and Brock cheer her up a bit. However, Max is gone for some reason. Max is seen to be spying on Nicolai and sees that (in his costume) he is spreading some fruit to attract the Zigzagoon. Max has captured a lot of fruit to attract all Zigzagoon, in order to foil Nicholai's plan. However, he is surrounded by a lot of Zigzagoon. Ash's Taillow spots Max and the gang comes to him. Ash's Pikachu attacks the Zigzagoons with Thunderbolt. Max gives the fruit to Brock who turns on Zigzagoons, but one of them sprays him with some sand bacause they are angry for being interrupted.
Nicholai appears in his costume, making the Zigzagoons follow him. Mudkip uses the Water Gun to make the fruit come off the trees. Then Max apologises to Nicholai for making revenge against him. Max asks how is he able to communicate with Zigzagoons so well, so Nicholai makes an example - he will battle one of the Zigzagoons. Nicholai transforms into a Mudkip and orders the Mudkip to attack with Water Gun. Zigzagoon evades, knocking the Mudkip out. Mudkip strikes again, hurting the Zigzagoon. Nicholai uses a Pokeball, to which he successfully captures.
However, the Team Rocket appear, stealing the Mudkip. Pikachu uses Thunderbolt, but Team Rocket negate it by using a satellite dish and redirecting the attack. Nicholai transforms into a Aipom and climbes the mountain pretty damn quick. The Zigzagoons then dig holes. Nicholai transforms into a Gleiger, taking the Mudkip with himself from James's hands. Ash brings Taillow out and orders to attack with Peck the ballon. Team Rocket then land in the hole Zigzagoon were digging. Jessie and James call their Arbok and Weezing out. Despite the first attack, Pikachu knockes both of them. Then Pikachu strikes the Team Rocket with Thunder, blasting them away.
Nicholai is impressed by Ash, even if he is not a Knickerbocker. He challenges Ash to a fight with Zigzagoon. Ash brings his Taillow out. The episode ends with Taillow battling the Zigzagoon.
Human Debuts
Pokémon Debuts
- "I didn't know that Zigzagooon could evolve into humans.
Are we really related?" - May and Max
The Who's that Pokémon? of this episode is Yanma.
- Max got the weight of Zigzagoon wrong, saying it's 8 lbs, when it is actually 38.6 lbs.

No guns at home, so Japanese shoot 'em up in Guam
In this photo taken on Saturday, Feb. 2, 2013, Japanese tourist Natsue Matsumoto, 38, warms up for a round of shooting at the Western Frontier Village range in Tamuning, Guam. Gun tourism is a big attraction on the tiny U.S. territory, drawing thousands of visitors who can't own guns in their own countries. For many tourists from Japan, the biggest thrill is the chance to shoot a gun at one of Guam's ubiquitous ranges, dozens of which are tucked between upscale shopping centers. The U.S. territory of Guam - a tropical island often described as a cheaper version of Hawaii - has long been the perfect place to put guns in the hands of tourists, especially from Japan, where gun ownership is tightly restricted and handguns are banned. Despite a shared sense of shock over the recent rampage by a gunman at America's Sandy Hook Elementary School, the gun tourism business here is as brisk as ever. (AP Photo/Eric Talmadge)

Swap file "..."already exists! - so diff it
this wiki
created 2007 · complexity intermediate · author Richard Bronosky · version 7.0
When opening a file (in this example geocode.py) in Vim, I regularly encounter messages like:
E325: ATTENTION Found a swap file by the name ".geocode.py.swp" owned by: rbronosky dated: Fri Sep 7 17:17:37 2007 file name: geocode.py modified: YES user name: rbronosky process ID: 6490 While opening file "geocode.py" dated: Fri Sep 7 17:17:04 2007 (1) Another program may be editing the same file. If this is the case, be careful not to end up with two different instances of the same file when making changes. Quit, or continue with caution. (2) An edit session for this file crashed. If this is the case, use ":recover" or "vim -r geocode.py" to recover the changes (see ":help recovery"). If you did this already, delete the swap file ".geocode.py.swp" to avoid this message. Swap file ".geocode.py.swp" already exists! [O]pen Read-Only, (E)dit anyway, (R)ecover, (D)elete it, (Q)uit, (A)bort:
This is the result of not properly closing an open buffer, usually because of a lost ssh connection. If there were unsaved changes, they can be recovered from this swap file. In order to know if this swap file is of value to me, I need to do some investigating. I have developed a system for resolving this quickly with as few keystrokes as possible.
- r # at the prompt hit "r" to recover the swap file
- :sav! /tmp/%
- :vs
- :diffthis
- CTRL-W_l
- :bp
- e # at the prompt hit "e" to edit anyway
- :diffthis
The result will be a vertically split screen with the swap file on the left and the regular file on the right. You will be in diff mode and if the files are identical they will both be folded into one line.
Sure, this would make a good script, but I am a big fan of "learn to do it by hand". That way you can do it on any system, and you can use each of the little steps to aid your daily vimming.
If you want to know more about the commands used, use
:help, for example:
See also
- :help :DiffOrig,
- Christian Brabandt's recovery plugin has a very good solution for recovering and diffing swapfile.
After recovering a file from a swapfile and deleting the swapfile you will usually use swapname .swo (or similar). If something goes wrong again, vim will not detect the .swo swapfile on startup. It is useful to restart vim, or do the following trick:
:set swf!|set swf!
In this way vim will delete the .swo swapfile and make a new one ending with.swp (you can check this with :swapname command). Now you are completely safe.
This is a useful trick, but it would be better if it was automated. Also in the situation where the recovered swapfile turns out to be identical to the real file, there is no need for the diffing. I use a shellscript to help deal with swapfiles, before starting Vim:
# Expects variables realfile, swapfile, recoveryfile. vim -r "$swapfile" -c ":wq! $recoveryfile" && rm "$swapfile" if cmp "$recoveryfile" "$realfile" then rm "$recoveryfile" else vimdiff "$recoveryfile" "$realfile" fi

Trouble at t' mill
But I've had to force myself to sit down in the chair (while Mrs Ches feeds the bairn) to report on the trouble unfolding within the SSPX. It's reasonably well known by now that Bishop Williamson received a letter from Bishop Fellay dated 23 September. The former shared it with friends one of whom, we must suppose, leaked the text to traditionalist blogger Maurice Pinay who - fearing this was a major step in a dirty tricks war to get Bishop Williamson expelled from the Society - promptly published it. An update to the original post states that Bishop Williamson has now certified the letter as authentic but claims not to have given his permission for it to be published on the net. In a further development, it is now being said that the letter was sent by mistake, and that a second letter exists (which Bishop Williamson has not received) which does not contain the threat of expulsion from the SSPX to be read in the letter posted on Pinay's blog. This news broke on Friday and was sent to me by an old seminary pal. On Saturday, in the wake of this unauthorised publication, Bishop Williamson's Eleison Comments took up the question of whether Pope Benedict had suppressed an ancient truth in excusing the Jews collectively of the crime of deicide in the second volume of his Jesus of Nazareth. And there, as far as I know, the matter rests.
So what exactly is going on in the SSPX? The Fellay letter, whether it was sent by mistake or not, contains some extraordinary revelations about the internal atmosphere of the SSPX, not the least of which is the claim that a group of Anglo-Saxon priests (the expression is a classic French one for Anglophones) is planning to break away. It is a strange letter which ranges between a rather conciliatory opening (setting out conditions for Bishop Wiliamson to attend the Albano meeting) and various accusations about Bishop Williamson's disloyalty to the SSPX. It seems to be out of step with Bishop Fellay's habitual poise.
Talk on the traditionalist forums is rife with accusations and counter-accusations in support or condemnation of Bishop Williamson and Bishop Fellay. Bishop Fellay is supposed, by many, to be preparing to 'sell out' to Pope Benedict, while others report senior SSPX clerics denying any possibility of the Society signing the Doctrinal (and still secret) Preamble. Bishop Williamson, who has been in exile for the last few years, has clearly invested this weekend's Eleison Comments with maximum provocative value. He surely knows full well that talking about the Jews is the thing that is most likely to embarras Bishop Fellay at the moment, but in this week's newsletter he has chosen to talk not about the Holocaust but about a common opinion - in his newsletter he scrupulously avoids calling it a dogma because he knows full well that it isn't! - concerning whether the guilt of the Jews in Jerusalem for Christ's death on Good Friday was shared with the rest of the Jewish race. For some people such an opinion is enough to have him thrown out of the Church, not just the SSPX. That said, I dare say it is an opinion one would find thoroughly well attested in the Fathers. It is not for all that a dogma de fide catholica, and dressing it up as an 'ancient truth' and lambasting the pope for overthrowing it looks on reflexion like a sleight of hand.
It becomes more difficult by the day to talk about these topics, as it becomes more necessary to do so. But at the same time, the brass-necked delusions of Bishop Williamson - who defends his continued publication of Eleison Comments on the ridiculous pretext that nobody can stop him as a bishop preaching the Faith - are not in fact that distant, metholodogically speaking, from the rest of the SSPX. Bishop Williamson's rebellion is beyond doubt the logical working out of a position that nobody in the SSPX has examined properly. Indeed, while not all the SSPX will chose to talk about the same controversial questions as Bishop Williamson, they pretty much all to a man follow the same modus operandi: if they decide something is against the Faith, then it is against the Faith, and this claim represents their Joker card which justifies them doing whatever they decide is for the good of the Church. By talking about this 'ancient truth' concerning the Jews this weekend, Bishop Williamson seems to be inviting Bishop Fellay to kick him out of the SSPX for reasons which would enable Bishop Williamson to charge Bishop Fellay precisely with betraying ancient truths. After all, why this subject and why now? I suspect Bishop Fellay knows Bishop Williamson has him over a barrel on this one.
But who decides in the end? We still don't know what is in the Doctrinal Preamble but I'm prepared to bet my last cigar that it is about this question of WHO is the final judge of these questions of Faith.
We must pray for the speedy resolution of this situation, but all the signs are, quite frankly, very bad: this looks increasingly like a proverbial train wreck, as the inner contradictions of the SSPX collide with each other. Here we are needing serious reform in the Church, and here we have a group which could make a massive contribution to the cause. And here we are waiting for the rivers of bullshit to subside before any resolution can be found.
God alone can sort this mess out.

It seems to me that a schism in the SSPX brought about by the departure of Bishop Williamson and his supporters would not be an entirely bad thing for the SSPX and the Church.
To be sure, in charity, we must pray for a change of heart. It would of course be very much better, were a reconciliation and regularisation of the SSPX to take place, which includes all four bishops, leaving no (significant) rump group.
However, humanly speaking, as long as the "Williamson factor" plays a role, there never be a reconciliation - how much the worse for the SSPX, and indeed the Church.
I speak as an "insider", as someone who attends an SSPX chapel out of necessity, and family circumstances. The sooner the "Williamson" element is gone, the better - it will make a reconciliation so much easier in my opinion. Not plain sailing, to be sure, but easier. I suspect that Bishop Williamson and those who think like him will never accept a reconciliation save on totally unrealistic terms

I would not underestimate how big the "Williamson element" might be.
For one thing of all the four bishops he's certainly the most charismatic of the four. His writings are well read and well liked. He sees the truth about the problems in the Church and explains them without pulling any punches. He wears his heart on his sleeve and a lot of Trads admire that about the man.
I reckon he could easily take 25-30% of SSPX Trads with him, especially if the agreement struck with Rome is considered dodgy, dangerous or just plain unintelligible.

- Ches said...
I agree, Greg. I think this is potentially a disastrous turn of events. WE'll have to wait and see what happens.

Whilst not qualified to comment on the theological differences between SSPX and the Vatican, but nevertheless as one who hopes for unity amongst believers, I was disheartened to note that Bishop Fellay describes the talks currently on-going with the Vatican as a confrontation, i.e. we have nothing to learn from you, only you from us:
"In such a grave moment as the confrontation now taking place between ourselves and the Holy See, the outcome of which will be decisive for our own future and not without consequences for the entire Church"
If this is the mindset of Bishop Fellay then it strikes me that the talks are destined to result in a prolonging of the status quo. It really does seem to suggest the attitude of "SSPX's way or the highway" without compromise. This brings us back to the issue of how agreement with Rome will ever be possible when the mindset that Ches repeatedly emphasises is that of true knowledge of what constitues the faith lying within the SSPX rather than with Rome.
Further clues to the possible attitude in what I had hoped were discussions with Rome, but now characterised as confrontation, are given by the ultimatum laid before Bishop Williamson:
"As for the unity of the SSPX, the one most putting it in danger is yourself, your Excellency! Always in the name of defense of the Faith. In such a grave moment as the confrontation now taking place between ourselves and the Holy See, the outcome of which will be decisive for our own future and not without consequences for the entire Church, I ask you then, once more, to remain silent until further orders."
Unity within SSPX appears to be something which Bishop Fellay thinks warrants Bishop Williamson's silence irrespective of his conscience. So within the SSPX unity is, seemingly, to be valued above all else, whereas in the confrontation with Rome a different value applies and the SSPX cannot possibly be expected to depart from what they have self-determined to be the true faith. This seems an impossible position for any fruitful dialogue with Rome.
Sadly, whilst at totally different ends of the spectrum, the fruits of this attitude towards the Holy Mother Church in Rome are likely to be just the same as the ever-splintering Protestant churches. Once you determine that the way to resolve theological disputes is by schism and locate authority within your splinter group then a precedent is set for all those who dissent at any point in the future to do exactly the same.
This all strikes me as incredibly sad as someone who has little practical knowledge of the SSPX but sees so much to respect in so much of what it stands for.
- 17 October 2011 at 12:50
- Ches said...
Agreed, Toby, and sorry not to have been in contact! The Williamson clash may serve to bring to the fore this very contradiction, because what BW+ is doing on the micro-scale is what the SSPX are doing at a macro-scale.
- 17 October 2011 at 13:18
- R. Catesby said...
I would not worry too much about the word "confrontation." I suspect that the word is a poor translation of the French word "affrontement," one of the meanings of which is "to face." "To face" is consistent with the dialogues between Rome and the SSPX.
This problem reminds me of the Spanish word "molestar," which means "to bother," not the more suggestive term Americans would infer.
- 18 October 2011 at 01:02
- Richard said...
Bp Williamson is just positioning himself to become The Remnant of The Remnant of The True Faith. Any day now I expect he will consecrate more Bishops. The apple doesn't fall very far from the tree, after all.
- 19 October 2011 at 06:13
- Colleen Hammond said...
I think things are looking good, especially since this appeared on the SSPX website.
How often does the SSPX applaud NO Bishops?
I pray for the right decision, as I feel the SSPX will have so much more power and influence if they're totally under the umbrella Rome and regularize their situation.
God's will be done...

GOP Top Tier Ignore the "Values Voters"
Timothy Kincaid
September 17th, 2007
The great circus of extremism known as the Values Voters Debate is being held today, and the Republican front runners will not be there. NBC6 is reporting that Rudy Giuliani, Mitt Romney, John McCain and Fred Thompson all have "scheduling conflicts" and wouldn't be caught dead at the event.
One can hardly blame them. The debate is moderated by WorldNetDaily's Joseph Farah and will host questions from "the American Family Association, Liberty Counsel, Creation Studies Institute and the like", including the brother of Terri Schiavo.
But though Janet Folger is terribly disappointed (and predicting dire results for those who are skipping the lunacy), there are some candidates so extreme (or so desperate) that they are willing to publically tie their wagons to young earthers, Ford boycotters, xenophobes, and homophobes.
Tonight's forum, which will be moderated by Joseph Farah, the editor of WorldNetDaily, will feature Senator Sam Brownback (R-Kansas), former Arkansas Governor Mike Huckabee, Congressmen Duncan Hunter (California), Ron Paul (Texas), and Tom Tancredo (Colorado), John Cox — and former U.S. Ambassador Alan Keyes, who announced his candidacy over the weekend.
Those with nothing to do (and I truly mean nothing to do) can tune in to watch the also-rans claim to each be more extreme than the other.

The city of La Grange could save more than $30,000 after city council voted to change insurance benefits Aug. 6.
About 24 full-time city employees previously paid 5 percent of their premiums, but will now pay 10 percent, doubling their monthly expense.
While many workers across the country have faced rising healthcare costs, La Grange employees pay less than national averages, according to council member Jason Taylor.
Employees with an individual plan will pay about $46 per month, he said, or $552 per year.

Claude Speed
this wiki
- For other characters with the name Claude, see Claude (disambiguation).
Grand Theft Auto series
Claude Speed is a character in the Grand Theft Auto series who appears as the protagonist of Grand Theft Auto 2.
Claude started his career as a simple thug, however he was soon hired by the major gangs that controlled Anywhere City. Claude secretly worked with all of them and in the end managed to kill all of their leaders, effectively becoming the true leader of the city's crime.
GTA 2 movie rendition
Little history is known about the character from GTA 2; however, DMA Design had previously released a promotional movie for the game, which was also compiled into the opening cinematic of the game, depicting a live-action rendition of Claude Speed committing several criminal acts, similar in all Grand Theft Auto games. In the movie, Claude is seen performing jobs for several crime bosses, before being shot to death by an assassin sent by the Zaibatsu Corporation, whose van and merchandise were previously stolen by Claude. The movie redition of Claude Speed was portrayed by English actor and model Scott Maslen.
Claude Speed is an extremely rude character and apparently has no regret of the crimes he accomplishes. He will work for anyone who will give him the needed money and will be ready to fight even the Army to pursue his goals. He was seen in more than one occasion laughing once he successfully gained what he wanted and is particulary ferocious in killing people, and he was once seen spitting over the body of a person he killed. He also worked for various gangs at the same time, angering all of them but in the end he managed to kill all of their leaders, putting an end to their rule over the city. He is known to have used drugs and cigars and knows how to use a variety of weapons, from simple pistols to even rocket launchers.
The movie's version of Claude shares a few physical appearances with the Claude in the 3D Universe games, including his black jacket (made of cloth in GTA 2 and leather in GTA III, GTA San Andreas), t-shirt (white color in GTA 2 and black in GTA III, GTA San Andreas), long pants (black color in GTA 2 and dark khaki in GTA III, GTA San Andreas) and slicked hair. The movie version, however, was also depicted speaking and displaying an array of emotions, a characteristic not seen in either the GTA III or the GTA San Andreas versions. Claude may also bear some resemblance to Elvis Presley, as when he walks into the Elvis impersonators in the game, they will occasionally shout, "Hey man, it's the King!" and "I told you he was alive!"
