The Most Dangerous Game
by Richard Connell
Analysis: Writing Style
Direct but Eerie
Connell packs a lot of mood into one sentence, so looky here:
He was finding the general a most thoughtful and affable host, a true cosmopolite. But there was one small trait of the general's that made Rainsford uncomfortable. Whenever he looked up from his plate he found the general studying him, appraising him narrowly (1.68).
Just when Rainsford has started to enjoy the foie gras, he starts feeling a little awkward. Why is General Zaroff looking at me like that? Well, he'll soon find out he's being sized up.
Connell loads a lot into these two characters, leading the reader to assume we have some clear-cut oppositions going on. Check out these declarations:
- "The world is made up of two classes—the hunters and the huntees. Luckily, you and I are hunters" (1.14).
- "Thank you, I'm a hunter, not a murderer" (1.118).
- And "The weak of the world were put here to give the strong pleasure. I am strong" (1.121).
We get the distinct impression that we are dealing with good versus evil. Yes, the dialogue is wooden, but it gets the point across. If Connell had delved into the psyche of these characters and really examined Rainsford's thought process as he went from hunter to hunted, we would have a whole different story here. It would be longer, less adventurous and more psychological.

The pills that get dropped on the floor are the number one reason pets get poisoned, according to the The American Society for the Prevention of Cruelty to Animals (ASPCA).
Turns out there are tons of ways our pets can get into big trouble, so we need to watch out for them.
Something that might be a treat for you, such as chocolate, could kill your pet.
And what is bad for you, like insecticides, household cleaners and other toxins, is also bad for your pet.
So here are the top 10 Pet Toxins, from the ASPCA:
Top 10 Pet Toxins
Both known and unknown toxins can be found hiding in our houses and yards. In 2010, the ASPCA Animal Poison Control Center (APCC) in Urbana, IL, fielded more than 167,000 phone calls about pets exposed to possibly poisonous substances.
Human Medications
Human medications are once again at the top of the list of pet toxins for 2010. Almost one-quarter of our call volume is about human medications ingested by pets. The most common culprits include over the counter medications (ibuprofen, acetaminophen), antidepressants and ADHD medications. Many times the pet accidentally ingested the medication when a pill was dropped on the floor.
About 20% of the calls to the APCC are about insecticides. Insecticides are commonly used on our pets for flea control and around our houses to control crawling and flying bugs. The most serious poisonings occurred when products not labeled for use in cats were applied to them. Always follow label directions.
Baits used to kill mice and rats are mostly grain based. Not only does this attract rodents, but it also attracts dogs and cats. There are several different types of rodenticides that can cause seizures, internal bleeding or kidney failure. Always make sure these items are placed in areas that pets cannot access.
People Food
Xylitol, grapes, raisins, onions and garlic are commonly ingested by our pets. Grapes and raisins can cause kidney failure in dogs, while onions and garlic can cause anemia if enough is ingested. Xylitol, a sugar alcohol used to sweeten sugar free gums and mints, can cause low blood sugar and liver failure in dogs. Always keep people food out of pets' way.
Veterinary Medications
Many medications made for our pets are flavored for ease of giving. Unfortunately, that means that animals may ingest the entire bottle of medication if they find it to be tasty. Common chewable medications include arthritis and incontinence medications. Always contact your veterinarian if your pet ingests more than a proper dose of medication.
Chocolate contains methylxanthines which act as stimulants to our pets. The darker the chocolate the more methylxanthines it contains. Methylxanthines can cause agitation, vomiting, diarrhea, high heart rate, muscle tremors, seizures and death.
Household Toxins
Cleaning supplies, such as bleach, acids, alkalis and other detergents, can cause corrosive injury to the mouth and stomach. Other household items such as batteries and liquid potpourri can cause similar problems. Always keep these toxins behind securely locked doors.
Both house plants and outdoor plants can be ingested by our pets. Lilies can cause life- threatening kidney failure in cats, while sago palms can cause liver failure in dogs and cats. Keep house plants and bouquets away from your pets.
Many herbicides have a salty taste and our pets will commonly ingest them. Always follow label directions and keep pets off treated areas until they are dry.
Outdoor Toxins
Antifreeze, fertilizers and ice melts are all substances that animals can find outdoors. Keep these items in securely locked sheds or up on shelves where pets cannot get to them.
If you have any reason to suspect your pet has ingested something toxic, please contact your veterinarian or the Animal Poison Control Center's 24-hour hotline at (888) 426-4435.
About the ASPCA: The American Society for the Prevention of Cruelty to Animals (ASPCA) was the first humane society to be established in North America and is, today, one of the largest in the world. The organization was founded by Henry Bergh in 1866 on the belief that animals are entitled to kind and respectful treatment at the hands of humans, and must be protected under the law. Headquartered in New York City, the ASPCA maintains a strong local presence, and with programs that extend our anti-cruelty mission across the country, we are recognized as a national animal welfare organization.

The American Cancer Society estimates that 6,230 people (3,980 women and 2,250 men) will be diagnosed with anal cancer in the United States in 2012. Anal cancer most often affects people between the ages of 50 and 80.
Anal cancer occurs when cells in the anus or the anal canal begin to grow abnormally. The anus is the opening to the outside of the body at the end of the large intestine below the rectum. The anal canal is the inch-and-a-half of tube inside the body that connects the rectum to the anus.
Several layers and types of cells make up the tissues in this area. So different types of cancer can develop here, depending on which layer of cells is affected.
Whatever the type of cancer, anal cancer cells do not respond to regular cell growth, division, and death signals like they are supposed to. They also don't organize normally. Instead they grow into a tumor, which may break through surrounding layers of cells.
Most anal cancers are one of these two types.
- Squamous cell carcinoma—Cancer that starts in thin, flat cells (squamous cells) in the skin and linings of the body. It can start in the skin around the anus (perianal skin) and in the outer lining of the anal canal. This is the most common type of anal cancer.
- Adenocarcinoma—Cancer that starts in glands. Anal adenocarcinoma can start in cells that line the upper anal canal and in glands under the anal lining that make mucus.
Signs and Symptoms
Anal cancer may not cause any symptoms, or it may not cause symptoms until it's advanced. Some symptoms of anal cancer are the same as symptoms of other problems, and they do not necessarily mean you have cancer. Be sure to talk to your doctor about any symptoms you are concerned about, especially the following:
- Bleeding, pain, or pressure in the anal area
- Itching, swelling, or a lump near the anus
- A change in bowel habits or diameter of the stool
- Discharge from the anus that's not normal
- Swollen lymph nodes in the groin
If you have any of these, don't delay. See your doctor to find out the reason. If you do have anal cancer, it's more likely to be found early—when it's easier to treat—if you see your doctor sooner rather than later about symptoms.

National Cancer Institute
Anal Cancer Risk Factors
While there isn't any known cause for anal cancer, several factors may contribute to its development, including infection with human papillomavirus (HPV).
Anal Cancer Diagnosis
To diagnose anal cancer, doctors have to remove a small sample of tissue from the anus and look at the cells under a microscope.
Staging is the process of determining how large your cancer is and whether it has spread to lymph nodes or other parts of the body. Doctors use stage to help guide treatment decisions.

The offering will feature similar signatures to Valli's mainline, with feminine fabrics including lace, brocade and tulle, as well as bold prints and vibrant colour. Prices will start at $50 (£30.23)."Our customer loves fashion," the store's executive vice president of marketing and advertising Martine Reardon told WWD. "[She] can't necessarily go to couture fashion shows and doesn't want to spend $1,000."This is the second time the store has collaborated with a couturier, Karl Lagerfeld having unveiled his Macy's collection earlier this month. From Valli's high street debut, we can expect cocktail dresses, skirts, blouses, lightweight jackets and graphic T-shirts in red, black, grey, fuchsia and gold."Valli is a visionary talent known for extravagant designs, so heading into the holiday season is a perfect moment for his creations in our stores," said Jeff Gennette, Macy's chief merchandising officer. "This collection strikes just the right balance between youthfulness and sophistication."Other designers to previously team up with Macy's have included Matthew Williamson and Kinder Aggugini. Valli's collection will launch on October 26.YOU SHOULD SEE: Karl Lagerfeld's collection for Macy's...YOU SHOULD SEE: Giambattista Valli's debut couture show...DO YOU REMEMBER: The Lanvin for H&M collection?TODAY IN HISTORY: Remember when Kate Moss kissed Frank Sinatra?

With its 86' (26 m) model, Monte Carlo Yachts along with Groupe Bénéteau's manufacturing expertise, brings Italian style and luxury as well as surprising accommodations flexibility to the production motoryacht market.
Overview of the MCY 86.
Most production boats try to be everything to all people -- quite predictably. Each company does things differently, often in creative ways, but the fundamental characteristics of each boat change little from one production boat to the next, be it an 80-something motoryacht or a rowboat. One will have four staterooms, one of those full beam, almost as surely as the other will have three thwarts and midship oarlocks.
A Different Approach.
Monte Carlo Yachts, a Italian motoryacht offshoot of Groupe Bénéteau, takes a different approach. Leveraging technology both within the finished boat and in the manufacturing process, the company's MCY 86 offers five widely different accommodations layouts plus significant layout options on the main deck and even a few variables on the flying bridge. The result is a competitively priced, European-styled production motoryacht balanced to each individual owner's needs.
In one possible three-stateroom arrangement, the midship master suite shares a stairway from the salon with the twin-bed cabin, forward and to starboard. The VIP suite, aft, has a private stairway from the salon. Stairs leading forward from the pilot house, through the galley, lead to crew cabins in the bow.
Flexible Accommodations Arrangements
We don't ordinarily begin a boat review in the master stateroom, but the choices here are key to understanding Monte Carlo Yachts' flexibility. It's easiest to begin with the standard three-stateroom layout (plus two crew cabins in the bow). Two full-beam master suites are nearly identical. The aftermost of these two staterooms, just forward of the engine room, is entered through a private stairway from the salon. The midship stateroom has a somewhat larger head and shares a stairway with the twin-bed guest cabin, which is farther forward to starboard.
Family Plan. But that might not be ideal for a large family. For those who want all of their kids and grandkids aboard at once, they'll have no problem aboard the MCY 86. To add a fourth stateroom, either of those full-beam suites is divided along the keel. A walk-around large bed occupies the resulting port stateroom, while the starboard stateroom is fitted with either twin beds or a double bed.
Still not enough room? Divide both full-beam suites to create five quite comfortable staterooms, each with ensuite head and separate shower stall. Because the yacht has a 21' (6.45 m) beam, there is room for two midships cabing side-by-side.
Material World
Monte Carlo Yachts is not known for doing things halfway, and as such the materials and workmanship seen throughout the 86 are second to none. Further, literally hundreds of material choices await the customer, making the purchasing process alone a fascinating experience.
Throughout the yacht we toured we saw designer fabrics from Armani Casa, Hermès and Pierre Frey. Furniture was fabricated from pickled oak and walnut. Heads were adorned with Italian stone and gold handmade Murano tiles. Overheads were covered with soft suede. Doors were made of a combination of pickled oak and hand-stitched leather and trimmed in decorative bronze.
This 4 stateroom accommodations layout has a private entrance for the master. The other three guest staterooms are accessed from a central foyer. In all of these layouts the crew quarters for four are forward.
Here the master stateroom is amidships and has a larger head and walk-in closet.
In this 5 stateroom layout plan the master stateroom is amidships on the port side. Note the large head. Note that all guest heads have a private shower stall.
The master stateroom is set apart by the larger hullside windows that have come to define the MCY brand.
This master stateroom features a large bed with storage under three sides. We think that all this suite needs now is some good art work on the bulkheads.
Another view of the master. Everything in this stateroom is designed and fabricated in-house with the exception of the two chairs that come from designer Poltrona Frau.
The head in the standard midships master suite -- (seen in the second layout above).
Counters are alabaster with vessel sinks. Cabinets are pickled oak. Bronze metalwork surrounds the mirror.
The guest cabins come with twin berths that can be moved together when couples are occupying the room.
Guest accommodations are also expectedly luxurious. The aft VIP head is shown here. Twin beds slide together to form a king.
Living Aboard.
If the yacht is to be a private vacation home with few guests, a particularly intriguing option turns the midship master into an magnificent owner's suite. It occupies about half of the total accommodations space by usurping the forward twin stateroom, which becomes a palatial master head with both a spacious shower and large tub. Aft of the enormous master, the standard arrangement is one large-bed stateroom and one twin-bed stateroom, but no matter which layout is chosen, Monte Carlo can transform any stateroom aboard into an office, a gym, or even a kids' media and play room.
The "presidential" layout turns both midship master and starboard forward twin cabin into an enormous suite with private access from the salon. The resulting master head includes a stall shower and large bathtub.
Options Above Deck
Main deck choices focus on how the boat will be used. The standard layout separates crew from guests, including an ample galley below and just forward of the wheelhouse. A galley-up version is on the drawing board, which then frees room in an already sufficient crews' quarters in the bow.
This facilitates night running a creates privacy for owners and their guests. Note the remarkable use of the foredeck which has quickly become a signature feature of Monte Carlo Yachts.
When desired, close a wide doorway just forward of the dining table (farthest away and left in this photo) to separate guest areas from the pilot house as well as galley and crew accommodations in the bow.
One set of stairs accesses the flying bridge directly from the pilothouse into the open-air galley or wet bar, to starboard, and the upper helm, to port. Another stairway comes up from the aft deck. Both the port aft Jacuzzi and starboard forward wet bar areas might be altered to meet individual owners' needs.
Monte Carlo Yachts fabricates its flying bridge overhead from lightweight carbon fiber rather than heavy fiberglass. This allows the structure to be thinner, less obtrusive, and lowers the yacht's CG.
This is among the most spacious covered flying bridges we've seen in class and it can accommodate a large number of people. A second table can be installed in from of the sofa opposite.
The table lowers to cocktail height or rises and folds out to accommodate 10 guests.
These photos show the standard flying bridge arrangement.
The Flying Bridge.
The standard flying bridge arrangement includes both a Jacuzzi aft, beneath the radar mast, and a well-equipped U-shaped outdoor galley/wet bar across from the upper helm.
But an owner who likes to be involved in navigation might eliminate the wet bar in favor of a forward-facing settee, while the Jacuzzi could be exchanged for a wet bar and grilling area, a sun pad, seating, or just about anything else one can imagine. Monte Carlo Yachts' designers will render it in 3D for a client's review before construction.
Hardtop Considerations
From the radar mast forward, the carbon fiber hardtop keeps rain and sun at bay, but includes a huge electric-opening center sky panel. Alternately, the flying bridge can be left uncovered or fitted with a retractable sunshade.
A Refreshing Change
Monte Carlo Yachts encourages extensive customization of the 86. It offers suggestions in the choice of wood, fabric, stone and fixtures -- for example, Volterra alabaster, Italian travertine and hand-crafted Murano glass tiles in the master head. Owners can tailor the boat with just about any material wanted. This is a refreshing change from many production yacht builders, which allow just a handful of options from a swatch book.
Still, Monte Carlo Yachts are production boats which cannot offer limitless choices. The MCY 86 currently offers only a pair of 1800-hp MAN 12-cylinder diesels with conventional V-drive inboard propulsion. There is, however, a benefit to limiting propulsion packages. Buyers needn't worry about how hulls, engines and propellers interact. MCY engineers have already determined which is the best propulsion system and engine brand for the mission at hand. Engineering costs are spread over many hulls, and performance is consistent among all, and the wheel does not have to be re-invented with every customer.
Looking aft in the engine room we see the tender garage substructure that makes for low headroom between the MAN diesels, but plenty of room is left outboard of each engine.
Looking forward, note the exhaust manifolds are secured to the overhead in two places. The Seakeeper gyro stabilizer is in the background, which was not turned on during our test.
The swim platform lowers hydraulically to accommodate a larger tender or a pair of personal watercraft -- up to 2,645 lbs. (1,200 kg) total weight, which Monte Carlo Yachts reports is about double the capacity of many similar yachts.
Performance Numbers
The MCY 86 we were aboard has a displacement of 158,400 lbs. (71,849 kg) fully laden and with crew and some gear aboard weighed about 160,000 lbs. (72,574 kg). Her beam is 22' (6.7 m) and the twin diesel engines were turning 48.7" x 40.8" 4-bladed props.
WOT Speed. Wide open throttle allowed the engine to turn 2404 rpm which drove the yacht at 28.1 knots on test day. At 2313 rpm, which is where her horsepower rating is notched, she traveled at 27.3 knots burning 154.5 gph. Note that these speeds are with full fuel and full water plus crew. With 1/4 fuel (469 gal./1,782 L) and 1/2 water (198 gal./752 L) we would expect her to be solidly in the 30-knot range for day boating excursions.
Best Cruise. Fuel consumption was more or less linear on a nmpg basis from 900 rpm to 2400 rpm, so captains can pick the speed that is most comfortable given the sea conditions. Our guess is that 1800 rpm and 19.1 knots will be a popular setting among some captains. There the boat burns 87.9 gph (334 lph). Other captains will prefer 1600 rpm and 16.1 knots burning 64.4 gph (244 lph), which we think is plenty fast for this size of yacht.
Noteworthy Range. The MCY 86 has a capacity to carry 1,864 gallons (7,100 L) of fuel which -- with a 10% reserve -- gives her noteworthy range. For example, at 9.7 knots (1200 rpm) she burns just 11.9 gph (45.3 lph) giving her a range of 1,376 nautical miles with a 10% reserve. This certainly should be her delivery protocol, and owners traveling in beautiful cruising locations should find this speed attractive.
Monte Carlo Yachts utilizes a state-of-the-art glass cockpit for the helm. All screens are touch activated. The screen to the left is dedicated to ships systems.
The side window opens to allow fresh air to flow through. Just behind is an access stairway to the flying bridge, all remaining ahead of the guest areas. Note that the glass dash is low to maximize visibility.
A control between the captain and observer's seats control switching between screens, and activating functions, without having to get up to touch the screens themselves.
Docking Details.
The large pitch propellers have plenty of torque to allow for steering the 86 with differential thrust pulses. In this manner we were able to direct the 86 toward the dock and use pulses of the controls to control the steering. Rest assured she carries along quite nicely on her own momentum, so just start her off in the direction and the engines then can be used to control the slide as desired. Then once alongside, the thrusters were used to gently nudge her against the dock.
With the med-moor we went from a side-to docking and used thrusters to rotate her 90-degrees for positioning the stern. Then gentle pulses of the engine controls eased her back towards the dock and then the thrusters kept her centered in position.
The flying bridge helm retracts down when not in use providing protection for the electronics. The same glass-dash functionality from the lower helm is available here.
Outdoor Living Expanded Throughout the Boat
Monte Carlo Yachts strives to build boats both practical and beautiful, while also including fresh ideas. This is perhaps best seen on foredeck, where the MCY 86 transforms typically underutilized space into unique outdoor entertaining venues without sacrificing the lines of the boat. Wide side decks are protected by bulwarks, not just railings. At the bow, these bulwarks merge into a Portuguese bridge -- a solid bulwark running across the boat, offering a protected place to stand forward of the lower helm windshield. This allows completely secure passage from side to side and all the way to the bow even while underway.
While a Portugese bridge certainly isn't a idea, it's not something expected on an 80-something Italian motoryacht, nor a feature that I've seen blended so well into the sweeping lines that are a signature of Italian yacht design.
Graceful lines are the hallmark of the design styling on the MCY 86. Wide sidedecks lead to a protected Portuguese Bridge.
With a deep, sharp forefoot the MCY 86 cuts through waves and her wide flared bow keep her topsides dry.
Bulwarks, not just rails, protect the wide sidedecks. Notice the grates that direct any water that ships aboard right back overboard.
Many similar-sized motoryachts expand the salon wider, squeezing or eliminating walk-around side decks. But side decks can be a perfect place to enjoy being on the water, whether at sea or on a harbor cruise. Monte Carlo Yachts 86 encloses side decks in a protective bulwark, which is carried forward .
Remarkable Bow.
With unfettered access to the bow, MCY uses it to its fullest. A bow cockpit includes a cocktail table flanked by wide seats that double as sun lounges. The table lifts electrically and expands into a dining table well suited to a five-stateroom motoryacht.
Luxurious Living.
Dock the PWC on the hydraulic transom platform and walk, still dripping wet, outside the boat along the side decks, all the way to the bow for lunch. There is even a day head accessed from the deck. The entire area also transforms into a gigantic sun pad. The 270-degree sweeping view is shaded by a translucent sun canopy deployed from four carbon fiber masts that fit into sockets on deck. All stow beneath the bow seats, alongside ample space for lines and fenders.
Bow Access.
The side decks, Portuguese bridge and forward cockpit also increase security while handling lines or anchoring. And since the bow will likely be a favorite perch at anchor, twin anchor windlasses are recessed into the deck just a bit to keep mud and marine growth from soiling blond teak decks or luxurious fabrics at the bow. A feature that the crew will like is that the working part of the bow is elevated, so handling lines and windlasses can be easily, and comfortably, done standing up.
While some yachts have seating at the bow, Monte Carlo Yachts takes the area a bit more seriously. Here, the area is a main gathering area able to accommodate all the guests in addition to all the attendees of a massive cocktail party.
Shade is as much of a valuable commodity as sun when onboard and as such, a sun canopy can be installed. The small circles just ahead of the canopy supports are pop-up LED lights that rise with just a twist for cool illumination at night. The table raises on electric pedestals, expands with four opening leaves, and rotates 45 degrees to fill the area for dining, or the table lowers to support filler cushions that create a gigantic frolicking sun pad.
The forward cockpit also aids in achor and line handling.
Side Deck Verandas.
Along either, or both of the protected side decks, a wide section of the bulwark folds down electrically to create an innovative balcony. Whichever side is away from view of the marina becomes a quiescent hideaway for morning coffee, across the boat and away from peering eyes on the dock. These private verandas are adjacent large glass sliding doors, which come with the veranda package, that draw the outdoors into the salon. They also double as side boarding platforms in addition to the passerelle aft.
Port and starboard bulwarks offer a section that folds out electrically, with railings that store in the bow, to form a balcony.
Large sliding glass doors adjacent these verandas, as well as another large glass door aft, bring the outdoors into the dining room and salon.
Electric pedestals also raise or lower the aft-deck table between dining and cocktail height. Also note the two deck capstans, four cleats, and chocks built to accommodate lines running in different directions.
The aft deck is protected from spray with a glass window that retains the view, where some yacht builders might have placed a solid fiberglass pilaster.
Groupe Bénéteau's influences remain largely hidden from view aboard, but scratch the surface to find Bénéteau's efficient use of technology that allows such wide customization aboard the Monte Carlo Yachts 86.
Monocoque Hull.
MCY is one of the few builders in class that utilizes a monocoque hull concept, something that has proven quite successful it its smaller motoryachts. With this construction method it is the hull itself that supports the loads much like a ping pong ball or an egg shell. This means that bulkheads are not structural and owners can pretty much design their own interiors if wanted.
Design Flexibility.
Monte Carlo Yachts keeps interior options flexible while also making strong, light hulls by building the complete interior outside of the hull. Changes are much simpler when made in a construction jig sitting on the shop floor, rather than inside a boat hull.
An aluminum substructure at the bottom of this interior module, as well as bulkheads incorporated into the interior module, fit tightly into the hull. Bonds are made to create a unitized hull, but the entire interior structure is isolated from the hull atop vibration- and noise-reducing mountings.
Building Smart.
The entire deck assembly is similarly completed, right down to cleats, teak and helm electronics, before being joined to the hull. Even the forward engine room bulkhead -- the aftermost bulkhead of the interior module -- is fitted with electrical panels, equipment and even fuel filters before it goes into the boat.
Advantage: Efficiency
The result, Monte Carlo Yachts says, cuts man hours in half, reducing costs and speeding the building process to just four months from first layup to completed yacht. This is remarkable and is the primary reason that MCY vessels are priced so reasonably. It is also a reason Monte Carlo Yachts sell so well -- owners don't have long to wait in order to go cruising.
Looking aft in the galley, stairs lead directly to the pilothouse. The crew lounge and crew staterooms are just ahead of the galley. The square just left of the stairs is a dumb-waiter for the crew to transfer items from the gally to the upper deck easier. Closing the stairway door will serve to keep any cooking odors from reaching the living areas. A power vent, and two opening portlights also help.
The crew has their own dining area just forward of the galley. Two crew cabins are just ahead. With this arrangement the crew can stay completely separate from the owner and guest living spaces, as opposed to a layout where the crew is located at the stern. Here they can still have their "midnight snacks" without bothering the guests. They can also slip out unobtrusively to the foredeck for R & R after the guests have retired to the salon or their cabins.
The starboard captain's stateroom is slightly large, with a double bed. The port stateroom includes bunk beds, and both share a head wit ha separate stall shower.
More High-Tech Pays Off.
The company employs Kevlar and carbon fiber wherever they offer advantages in manufacturing efficiency, strength or weight. The carbon fiber hardtop above the flying bridge, for instance, saves significant weight high in the boat where it would impact stability.
Interior veneers are sorted and hand-matched by experienced woodworkers, but then cuts are planned by computers that control CNC routers to mitigate waste. In short, technology based efficiency drives the entire building process, but luxuriousness is the ultimate goal.
Most boaters able to afford a multi-million dollar yacht want accommodations, materials, and equipment that fits their idea of what a dream yacht should be, not the common denominator of a production yacht builder. It is for that reason that these wealthy individuals go to naval architects and custom yards and wait years for their ideal motoryacht to be built. Monte Carlo Yachts offers these discerning consumers what we feel is a compelling option to one-off boat custom building, with a custom interior approach in a fixed hull and deck.

A Quote by Ven Payutto on wealth, buddhism, society, and generosity
According to the Buddhist teachings, wealth should be used for the purpose of helping others; it should support a life of good conduct and human development. According to this principle, when wealth arises for one person, the whole of society benefits, and although it belongs to one person, it is just as if it belonged to the whole community. A wealthy person who uses wealth in this manner is likened to a fertile field in which rice grows abundantly for the benefit of all. Such people generate great benefit for those around them. Without them, the wealth they create would not come to be, and neither would the benefit resulting from it. Guided by generosity, these people feel moved to represent the whole of society, and in return they gain the respect and trust of the community to use their wealth for beneficial purposes.

After Tumblr Deal, Yahoo Unveils New York Home, Flickr Reboot
As if Yahoo didn't make enough news on Monday with a blockbuster $1.1 billion acquisition of blogging and photo-sharing site Tumblr, the Internet pioneer also said it had leased office space in New York's Times Square and unveiled a revamp of photo-sharing service Flickr.
Yahoo's new home will be located at 229 West 43rd Street in New York City, in the former home of the New York Times. Yahoo CEO Marissa Mayer said during an event Monday evening that it would house around 500 of the company's employees there, with space for an additional 200. She said Tumblr's 175 employees will remain near New York's Union Square.
New York City Mayor Michael Bloomberg, who also appeared at the event, said Yahoo's deal for Tumblr was proof of New York's growing clout as a technology hub. He also called it "a sign of the times of how new media is growing in our city," taking the former home of the Times, an older media company.
Mr. Bloomberg also called Yahoo's deal for New York-based Tumblr "a wonderful New York moment."
On the same day that Yahoo acquired Tumblr, which is one of the Web's most popular photo-sharing venues, Ms. Mayer said Yahoo would fix photo site Flickr, "another company that dropped the 'e' before the 'r' and didn't fare so well" after Yahoo acquired it in 2005.
Adam Cahan, who is leading Yahoo's initiatives for services on mobile devices, said the redesigned Flickr site and mobile apps will offer each user a terabyte of storage space for free, or room for nearly 538,000 photos. He said it was 70 times bigger than what everybody else is offering.
"We never want you to compromise a single pixel," he said at the event, adding that Flickr had 89 million users.
Similar to the recent revamps of other Yahoo services such as Yahoo Mail and the Yahoo.com home page, the new Flickr has a more elegant look, with photos that take up more of a user's screen.
"Bigger images, more immerse, more expressive," Ms. Mayer said. "Flickr was awesome once…we want it to be awesome again."
She added that there a "natural set of opportunities" for integrating Tumblr's service with that of Flickr.
The redesign of Flickr comes amid growing competition in the photo-sharing space. Last week Google unveiled a slew of new photo-editing tools for its Google+ service, which has gained popularity among photographers. Facebook and its Instagram mobile app also have become photo-sharing behemoths.
Correction: An earlier version of this post inaccurately said Yahoo's Monday event was held at 229 West 43rd Street in New York City.

WSJ/NBC Poll: Obama Tops GOP on Unifying the Nation
As President Barack Obama and Republicans in Congress face-off over upcoming across-the-board spending cuts, Americans give sharply different marks on which of the two is working to unify the country or is simply pursuing partisan aims.
By a more than 2-to-1 margin, Americans say Mr. Obama is doing a better job overall than Republicans at attempting to unify the country in a bipartisan way, a new Wall Street Journal/NBC News poll finds.
The poll found that 48% of respondents see Mr. Obama as trying to unify the country, compared to 22% who said that of Republicans and 37% who said that of Democrats.
By comparison, well over six in 10 Americans said Republicans are emphasizing a partisan approach that does not unify the country. Even among self-identified Republicans, 45% said their party was putting partisanship above trying to unite the country.
The share of those dinging the GOP for partisanship was still higher, at around 70%, among college graduates, moderates and people earning over $75,000.
That said, while Mr. Obama fared well on the partisan question, his party did only marginally better than the GOP. Nearly half of all Americans said Democrats emphasize a partisan approach.
The results of the full poll will be released at 6:30 p.m. on WSJ.com.

Kiley's "The Bramble"
Location:Cape Cod, Massachusetts
Square Feet:370
What I Love About My Home
I love that my cottage -- known by friends as The Bramble -- is tucked into a wooded pondside neighborhood on one of the most scenic routes in America. I moved back to Cape Cod five months ago after seven years in NYC, so I'm comfortable with teeny tiny, but I love that I have a yard and see trees from every window. I also got lucky with the dark hardwood floors, high ceilings, and skylights.
Biggest Challenge in Furnishing My Home
The challenges are the fun part! Having zero budget is tricky. I left NYC with a lot of books and kitchenware, but not much more furniture than a couple of Craigslist finds. I managed to furnish The Bramble with some beautiful family and thrifted pieces, with the exception of one trip to IKEA. I dabble in DIY, but am super impatient. Of course, the size is tough to work around, but I chose small scale furniture to create distinct, functional spaces. I am a compulsive entertainer, so it's important to me to make that work. This place changes on a daily basis!
Comments (71)
Kiley, as a fellow Cape Codder, you have greatly inspired me. And yes, I'd love to see more of this house.
Quite a few interesting pieces of furniture you have got there!
I particularly like the two sofas, the chest of drawers by the table, the chair beside the chest of drawers, the chair in the bedroom
(any info about all these pieces would be much appreciated!).
And I like the overall composition.
Well done!
Love the name, love the decorating, love the whole write up about such a precious place!! Good luck!!
Tons of personality on a small space. I live in the tropical version of The Bramble (a cottage on the Miami River surrounded by coconut trees). Maybe we can swap once a year? Just not in the winter. :)
I love the muted gold upholstery on the one chair, and the cornflower blue chest behind it. Such a nice space!
Thanks everyone for your great comments!
@FrontPorchPirate: I just got deck furniture and the flowers are starting to bloom. I'm so excited for my first spring at The Bramble.
@diridi: The two sofas are actually just one sofa -- the orange velvet one came from CL. When I picked it up I asked where the seller got it and he explained that for extra cash he cleans out funeral parlors and this was one of his take aways; explains why it was in such good condition. What you might be seeing is a low club chair, also with cane siding, which I salvaged from a property my dad was cleaning out. I reupholstered the seat and polished the wood and it's one of my favorite chairs. The chest of drawers was an estate sale find by my aunt. The gothic looking chair beside the chest of drawers was my great grandmother's piano playing seat; it's surprisingly comfortable for looking like a torture device. The round chair in the bedroom was another CL find from Crown Heights, BK. totally worth the rainy cab ride home with the trunk open.
@valentino: I would love to help.
@Juliet: That lamp is actually from a dollar store in Park Slope Brooklyn, where I used to live! I couldn't believe it either when I found it!
and @cvgmiami: I need to see pics of this tropical Bramble! and yes, a swap sounds amazing on this rainy New England day...
Thanks again, you guys!
It's beautiful! It looks lived in, realistic and not overly styled. Very personal and creative. I'd love to see exterior pictures!
I like the pictures but I love the fact your grandmother posted and that your couch is from a funeral parlor!
I really love your eclectic home. I agree with previous posts - the way you've mixed old and new works really well; it looks like a real, lived-in home not contrived like so many of the other entries. I would love to see more photos, I feel like these are just a glimpse and they leaving me wanting more!!! I could keep raving on....
you have done a good job of keeping a small space uncluttered but interesting -
the storage ladder is inspirational!
Love the house! Quick question... did you buy the desk as-is or did you paint it?! My husband has the exact same one, but the steel is a drab blue and the top is dark wood. Our color scheme is very similar to yours and I would love to refinish the desk!
Uh oh! I just submitted for this contest, and I already see my submission won't be accepted with places like yours! Beautiful! It is inspiring me to inject some "old" pieces into my home.
What a great space! I actually have the silver lamp in the fifth picture - I bought mine at a salvation army in Georgia! I covet your desk chair! Only thing that I would change personally is all the small art pieces. I'm more a 1 - 2 large art kind of girl - but that is personal preference. Really neat space!
Wow everyone really wants to see my yard! Give it time to green up...
@nereik: The desk was another salvaged find. The top is formica with this fine crosshatch pattern on it. Very cool. The original color is the chartreusey yellow you see on the inside of the pulled-out drawer, and I painted black on the outside. I knew that I'd have a riot of color on the bulletin boards and desktop, so I wanted the base to recede, with the surprise pop of yellow when I open a drawer.
@bzb: That's so funny because this lamp is pretty new! I got at Target about 8 years ago when Isaac Mizrahi had a home line.
@troyce: It's actually a room divider from IKEA. It's hanging from the ceiling to block the side of the refrigerator, which was the first thing you would see when you entered the cottage. It also serves to highlight the high ceiling.
I have found so many inspirational ideas in this post! Amazing job! I LOVE the painting in the first picture, it's hard to tell, but are they silverbirch trees? Silverbirch are my favourites and remind me so much of the cottage we had growing up, where we spent our summers. LOVE it!
I want to visit.. in the night.. while you're sleeping.. mostly unannounced.. wearing a white tuxedo.. pockets of tuxedo filled with pulled pork.. then we'll have a clambake the next morning.
This place is making me want to throw up my hands, quit everything (and give up my apt.) in NYC and just runaway to the Cape. I love the area of the Cape your place is in, so beautiful. Not to mention the cranberry bogs, painfully beautiful Hopper-esque light, and those wild scrubby roses. Can I move in, I'll sleep in a drawer. Or on the beach with the lobsters. The funeral parlor furniture is definitely the kicker. I have the same Ikea rug.This post is like Dada poetry...
its look awesome and so nice to see you settled in and loving your home..Just when do you find the time..You can stay as long as you want:)
Beautiful Kiley! I always see you talking about The Bramble on Facebook-nice to see what it looks like! You definitely have a talent for decorating! Want to come do my house?!? ; )
What was the point of picture #4? A chair and shelf? You could have used that picture to show us the kitchen or bathroom. And the bedroom picture is a waste ... another chair and a footboard.
On a side note, I find it interesting that at least 8 of the comments are from commenters who have only been AT "members" for a day or two.
Sorry, just think this entry is extremely padded.
Oh and, blackandwhite24, the point of picture #4 was obviously to show how she used space for kitchenware in her teeny-tiny apartment.
And thank you kiley for introducing me to this site! obsessed!
blackandwhite24-- I've been reading AT for years, and did the Spring Cure on my last apartment. And yes, I only opened an account to support my friend 2 days ago. Should I expect a lawsuit or something?
And if you think that the front runners got their 800+ votes by accident, you've obviously not been on the Internet very long.
Looks like the internet police are on the case. You've been made Kiley. Time to scram the jig is up!
I love the bedroom picture the best!!
The up-high books and blue vanity make me swoon.
And it's all even better in person!
I mean....Kiley and I are strangers. I just HAPPEN to spend my time roaming the internet looking at the inside of people's homes.....
This is a wonderful mix in a peaceful setting that also features intriguing curios. Well done!
Wall paint color, please. Stonington Gray or Harbor Gray from Benjamin Moore? Curious...
Now, now. Let's not have a comment battle on The Bramble's entry page. Blackandwhite24 is right, the shelf and chair photo is lame. But it seems my other pics make up for it.
As for the rest of you people that joined AT just to favorite me: Thanks! And welcome to the community!
@ach: If you mean the room divider, they are screenprinted birches, yes. If you mean the two paintings beside it, I'm not sure. Those paintings were given to me by my aunt who used to own a gallery in Vermont. They're of a rainy day in a city which I think is Paris. Thanks for noticing!
@elbebuz: Do it! Do it!
@MiaG: It's actually Mineral by Martha Stewart (I just call her Martha) throughout the living area and bedroom. If you can tell, the wall behind the coffee cup shelf is a different color (that moves into the kitchen), which is Martha's Morning Fog.
My kitchen isn't photo ready because I just moved in a few months ago!
Thanks again, all! This is fun.
Your sense of design is extraordinary!!! Absolutely the nicest, well laid out small space I have seen. In your photo's it does not look cramped in the least.
You've done the almost impossible with your "teeny tiny" space, made every inch count, used only those pieces/colors that you love and made it feel "biggy big"!
Love this! I'm also living on Cape. My apartment is kind of the same story, small area with a lot of salvaged furniture. I don't pull it off as beautifully as you do though. Definitely taking some inspiration from this.
I like the older chair paired with the modern desk...but is it comfortable? Would also like to see pics of the exterior once spring gets going, I'm enticed with a name like The Bramble...
Wish I could have all of you nice people over for spring cocktails on the deck!
@HaloHill: I'm glad someone finally asked about the chandelier, because I made it! Actually it's an old one from Urban Outfitters(maybe 9 years ago) that I found in my storage when I moved back to the Cape. A lot of the "crystals" (hard plastic) had fallen off so there were all these holes in it. I have been obsessed with Mathieu Challières' Voliere lamp (which Urban has since ripped off, actually) so I got a bunch of craft birds and perched them in the empty spaces.
@emilynoelle: The chair is definitely not comfortable for long hours of working, but it was my late Grandpa's desk chair so I like sitting in it.
The hand drawn floor plan is charming and after looking at a handful of other entries, it made me smile. ;)
This one has my vote. The colors are relaxing and sophisticated and the furniture is placed really well...for entertaining! It's gorgeous.
Just lovely! It's hard to believe you don't have a budget because, though your furniture is obviously older, everything in your house is beautiful. Thank you for limiting your use of Ikea. I get that young kids starting out need a lot of things very quickly and for not a lot of money; who am I to judge? But I do appreciate it when people don't resort to Ikea.
i've not [YET] been to the cape but this cottage is just what i envision! if this is true, i'll be blissed out when i finally make it. :)
@guffee: It's Mineral by Martha Stewart. I really wanted Elephant's Ear by Farrow & Ball, so I found a cheaper version.
@3floorsup: It really is charming here! Not everyone has the same eclectic style that I do but there are a lot of cool spots. And you can't beat the light and air in the summertime.

I believe I have version 2.5. Will it work on Windows 7 or do I need to upgrade to version 3?
If I need version 3 for Windows 7 will my version 2.5 key work and if not what do I need to do to get a new key?
What is the advantage to using version 3?
Seems like these are good questions to add to FAQ list.

It's not a matter of it working with Windows 7, but rather if it's compatible with the hardware you are running. If it displays the usernames and asks you for the activation key, then it will remove the password. The main concern is always the hardware, not the Windows version.
If 2.6 doesn't work, then try the 3.0 version and see if it will get to the part where you are being prompted for the activation key. If yes, then you would need the current activation key which is not the same as the one issued with 2.6. You would need to contact us using the Contact Us form so we can check your purchase and see if you have the Standard or Corporate version which includes updates. If you do, then we will forward you the current key for 3.0. If you purchased the Basic version, you would need to purchase a new key.
The advantages of 3.0 are compatibility with newer hardware, and a graphical interface which is more user friendly.

Thanks for the speedy reply. I needed to use it again yesterday on my Vista system. It worked great so thanks for making it. I just thought I should be prepared when I upgrade to Windows 7. The manual for my version lists Vista as the most recent Window Version so was not sure about Windows 7.
Thanks again.

Sagna tackle #2by FABONGRASS May 2, 2013 22:02Ralf S Ralf S May 4, 2013 12:20 Flag
FABONGRASS, let me suggest you buy a copy of the rules of football.
Then you would understand that a foul can be awarded regardless of whether a player gets a touch or even touches the other player. Intent is enough.

"United were EPL champions before the Arsenal match kicked off, so what has that got to do with anything?"
It means that Utd had nothing to play for, no need to give a big effort.
As to the penalty, look in the newspaper, it was given and scored. So was Walcott's goal, whichi was offside.
- Ralf S Ralf S May 2, 2013 05:55 Flag
Fact. The ref gave a penalty, so it was a penalty.
Fact. van Persie scored it.
Fact. Utd are EPL champions
Have a nice day.

Here's a fact.
Utd are 21 points clear of Arsenal, with 3 to go.
I'm surprised you aren't too embarrassed to post on here.

Answer on a postcard, please, pixie.
I was happy with a point, because you know what? The rest of the season doesn't matter, not for Utd. Just play out quietly, avoid injuries and have a great summer off.

I don't see what banning the guy will achieve.
Dave Steer posted that he might need professional help, I agree.
To ban him and let him come back without help would be cruelty on a par with bear baiting.
This is beyond football, IMHo.
- Ralf S Ralf S Apr 23, 2013 20:53 Flag
Dave, thanks for the kind words. I do wonder how many ex-pros have real problems that we never hear of and Gazza is an appropriate and poignant reference.
I can't really see the point of the FA punishing him for this incident (probably Ivanovic can, as the 'bitee'), but pulling his registration for a period and making a return conditional on getting some some help would, IMHO, be more appropriate. If a guy does a crazy thing like that and can't control himself, what does banning him achieve?
- Ralf S Ralf S Apr 22, 2013 17:07 Flag
You think deeply about things; could this be something resembling Tourette's, where he has an irresistible impulse to do something?
As an aside, I know someone who knows Evra reasonably well and the word is that the abuse really did happen - not wishing to re-open old wounds and argue water under the bridge, but it could be another symptom in a chain of behaviours, if you theory is correct.... and I can see where you are coming from, he may need professional help. And I'm commenting as a human being, not a (opposing) football club supporter.

I've just read one of the most stupid headlines in a paper - 'Bradford thrashed'
A league 2 team is beaten 5-0 by a useful premier league outfit, that ain't a thrashing in my book, it's the margin I'd expect at Wembley, with a large and true playing surface.
Although I'm a United fan, I'd just like to propose a toast to Bradford for finishing #2 in the league cup, true they don't get a trophy, but they have my respect for a sustained excellent cup run.

"If it wasn't for a super rare Wellbeck goal United would have lost."
This guy FABONGRASS (more like HIGHONGRASS) is a complete cnut and fcukin idiot.
Now TW*TONGRASS, let me draw you a picture, if a team scores less than another team, they lose.
If a team scores the same as another team, they draw.
Now run along to the results pages and count how many Real and United scored each.
Don't overheat your brain.

I agree that you deserved something against us. You were very unlucky at Anfield and played well at OT.
I also agree that you were all over City the other week and deserved to win that one, in fact I really enjoyed watching your team's performance, which was full of heart and intent.
- Ralf S Ralf S Feb 11, 2013 10:10 Flag
If you play consistently, you can finish in the top 4 this year.
If Utd are 12 points clear at this stage, by virtue of stringing together quite a lot of ground out results, it shows how inconsistent the other teams have been and there is always a chance.
Next season, I expect Liverpool to make some further steps forward and start to be a more serious challenger over the whole season.

Just an observation.
Last season, we drew 4-4 with Everton in the corresponding match.
If we had won 4-3, we would be champions.
Everton are not a team to trifle with.

"The vast majority of us on both sides are normal, decent people who happen to support two different clubs."
Very true. And where would we be without different clubs to play each other and compete for the league and other competitions?
If I ever meet any of the Lpool supporters on this board, it would be my pleasure to buy you a pint and have a post match chat.
I have no time for the morons who insult each other.

Why to NOT do a D-BOL only cycle!
We all have those guys in the gym that talk about how they love to do dbol only cycles. Here's why that is not a smart choice:
Don't do a DBOL ONLY cycle! EVER!
There are plenty of good reasons for this - Obviously in that Dianabol is a 17-alpha alkylated steroid, warranting short-term use. Since Dianabol has little Androgen receptor activity, it functions particularly synergistic with compounds that have a strong Androgen receptor activity as is the case for all the aforementioned. In other words - stack it! Forgetting about the science here - do you want to make muscle, strength and water gains and end up feeling pumped and huge by the end of your cycle only to realize that the dianabol mainly gained you water and a few weeks after the cycle you lose it all?
Dianabol is a methylated compound with a certain toxicity, so in the interest of safety you wouldn't use it longer than 6 weeks on end, 8 weeks at the absolute maximum and only under supervision of a medical professional who can monitor your liver values. Arnold was said to use it for eight weeks at a time (of course this is only speculation), but even if this was the case, Arnold was on a whole other level than most beginners. Don't copy what he did and expect the same results - his workouts, nutrition program and steroid stacks were designed for his body and his genetics - never copy him or anybody else for that matter. Dianabol heavily aromatizes so its not particularly useful during cutting and with 6-8 weeks of use maximum, that leaves the option open - Stack it with another, injectable, compound that can be used for longer terms (beginning of stack when other compound is least active).
Dianabol is mainly meant to kick start your cycle gains. This is normally done by stacking it with a longer acting product, such as testosterone enanthate or cypionate, deca or equipose. For best use, include it early in a stack.
Weeks 1-4: Dianabol - 20-25 mg daily.
This should be more than sufficient for a beginner and just fine to kickstart your mass gains. Sometimes less is more! When it comes to 17-alpha alkylated drugs, this is one of those times. Liver health is something that you should be very important to you.
When stacking with a longer-acting product, such as testosterone enanthate or cypionate, Deca or Equipoise, the best use is early on in the stack. Dianabol is a very fast-acting steroid and most injectables don't start showing their real value for 2-3 weeks. That makes it particularly useful to kick off a cycle with.

i disagree with the statement that Dbol is not useful during cutting... yes, it easily aromatizes but it is great at holding mass in a heavy calorie deficit. run it with an anti-e and the bloat will be minimal.
i DO still agree that Dbol only cycles are of little value for real mass gains

Of course the point of the post is because I have been asked 1000 times by young guys starting out about d-bol only cycles as I'm sure you have as well.
