In what surprisingly proved to be one of the summer's most drawn out and and repetitive transfer sagas thus far, Liverpool have finally wrapped up a £25million deal for former Southampton midfielder Adam Lallana.
It's unfortunate news for Tottenham Hotspur however, with former Saints and now Lilywhites boss Mauricio Pochettino reportedly exceptionally keen to make the 26 year-old his first major signing at White Hart Lane.
But fear not Mr. Pochettino, for we at Football Fancast have conjured up this list of five like-minded alternatives to Adam Lallana, sharing the England international's high-octane, versatile, playmaking style.

SUBMITTED: Thursday, January 02, 2014POSTED: Thursday, January 02, 2014
We listed our Royal Elite timeshare with Copeland Marketing in August of 2012. They were very friendly, persistent, and eager to give us great information regarding how quickly our week would sell. As you can see, it's been over a year and we've NEVER received a phone call regarding our listing. We've reduced the asking price several times and each time we did, it took more than 2 phone calls to get the price correct on the website. This company could care less about you once you give them your $600. I advise against anyone using them to "sell" your timeshare. If only we could get back the money we so willingly, so foolishly gave them...
Are you an owner, employee or ex-employee with either negative or positive information about the company or individual, or can you provide "insider information" on this company?

Arum Confident Pacquiao-Bradley Breaks 1 Million Buys
By Rick Reeno
MGM Grand, Las Vegas - The long wait was well worth it, says Top Rank's CEO Bob Arum. The veteran promoter is confident that Saturday's HBO Pay-Per-View rematch, between Manny Pacquiao and Timothy Bradley, will break a million pay-per-view purchases.
The fighters first met in June 2012 and very, very few people picked Bradley to come out on top. It was viewed by most as nothing more than a stay-busy defense for Pacquiao. Very few casual fans were familiar with Bradley. After the smoke cleared, Bradley won a controversial twelve round split decision. The pay-per-view generated 890,000 buys.
Despite some interest for an immediate rematch, especially from the Filipino fans who were screaming for murder, Arum's company placed the rematch on the shelf and matched the two fighters against other opponents.
Pacquio returned in the fall of 2012 and saw himself get knocked out by Juan Manuel Marquez in six rounds. Bradley came back in early 2013 and took a ton of punishment in a "Fight of The Year" decision win over Ruslan Provodnikov. Bradley followed up on that performance last October with a clear decision victory over Marquez. Pacquiao came back a month later to win an easy twelve round decision over Brandon Rios.
Bradley's HBO Pay-Per-View with Marquez only generated 375,000 buys. Pacquiao's HBO Pay-Per-View with Rios only generated 475 to 490,000 buys [although some experts claim it was lower]. There were key factors that attributed to those numbers. Marquez has never been able to generate huge pay-per-view numbers without an A-side opponent like Pacquiao or Mayweather. And Pacquiao's fight with Rios was held in China, which significantly decreased the U.S. media coverage and the promotional impact in the United States.
After nearly two-years, some people believe Pacquiao has a lost a step or two, and many believe Bradley is now a step or two better since their first fight. The Vegas odds [9-5 as of Wednesday] reflect a very close fight.
"It was considered [a one-sided fight] the first time. People said 'Bradley is a pretty good fighter, but this is just another exercise for Manny Pacquiao.' Right? There wasn't much excitement. Now, look at the Race & Sportsbook [at the odds]. This time a lot of people are picking Bradley, knowledgeable people, knowledgeable writers," Arum told BoxingScene.com.
Bradley's victories over Provodnikov and Marquez have made him a bigger name and raised his name value. But more importantly, Arum says the pay-per-view is trending very well in terms of where the buyrate figure will fall.
"It's much bigger because nobody knew who the hell Bradley was [in the first fight]. And then when we were building it up we ran in to what was a devastating thing...[and it] was the Celtics and the Heat going seven games in what was a great, great series. That took ESPN out of the mix. They weren't going to plug the fight, plug the fight, plug the fight - they were plugging the game and nobody blames them. Thank God we don't have that now," Arum said.
"Right now I'm afraid because it's doing so good [in the pre-fight purchase estimates]. In other words, there is a feeling that it will go over 1.2 million...certainly over a million, a million-one. Remember that we did 900,000 the first time."
I changed my prediction. I think it will do 200K or less. If that would make the Floyd fanbase happy. ;-)Comment by big_james10 on 04-11-2014
[QUOTE=LoudNeighbor;14410978]The first fight drew 700k. Pac isnt the star that he was then. This fight does 600k imo. Look forvArum to inflate the numbers, only to be corrected by Dan Rafael in an ESPN article[/QUOTE] Dan Rafael won't correct him.…Comment by big_james10 on 04-11-2014

The firs fight only sold 600,000. I would bet on this fight only selling 800,000 at most. Of course Arum will claim it sold 300,000 more buys than it actually did as he does with every fight.Comment by Cgarcia on 04-11-2014
I think Maidana vs Mayweather will do 1.8 million. Ask Schaefer. ;-)Post a Comment - View More User Comments (87)

How to Get Rid of Carpenter Ants
Carpenter Ants are controlled through the application of insecticides and sprays in various forms. These forms include liquid concentrates, baits, dusts, and foams.
1. Inspection
The first step to controlling Carpenter Ants is inspection, to determine if they are located outside and simply foraging inside, or if you have a colony or satellite colony inside your home.
2. Determine Control Measure
Once you complete your inspection and identify nest locations and foraging trails, the next step is to determine which control measure to use.
- Baiting - used on Carpenter Ant trails
- Spraying- Non-Repellent sprays used as permiter treatment, may be used with baits
- Treating Voids - Foams or Dusts used in voids or galleries where Carpenter Ants are nesting
3. Prevention
The final step is to prevent further infestations by ant-proofing your home and yard, by clearing away rotting trees and lumber piles, fixing plumbing leaks, etc.
- Click Here: Prevention Tips.
Baiting Procedures for Foraging Ants and Ants in Recessed Areas
Apply Carpenter Ant Baits after inspecting their trails.These ant baits are designed to attract Carpenter Ants. The foraging Carpenter Ants pick up the bait and share it with the entire colony, killing it.
Do not to put repellent insecticides, liquid or granulated, in the same area as baits. Repellent insecticides repel the insects away from the baits, rendering the baits useless. Use only non-repellent insecticides in the same area as baits.
It is important to remove other competing food sources (such as crumbs and pet food) that could interfere with the Ants taking the bait.
1. A good treatment choice is to bait both inside and the grounds outside with a combination of baits.
- Both of these baits are designed to allow foraging workers to take the bait to the queen in the nest, eliminating the colony/colonies, thereby preventing future outdoor populations from coming inside.
- Both of these baits work well on Carpenter Ants and resist the elements, making them hardy choices for outside baiting. Carpenter Ants feed on sweet foods during certain cycles, and at other times feed on protein foods. The Maxforce Carpenter Ant Bait Gel contains honeydew, one of the major sweet-based food sources for these Ants. The Advance 375 A Ant Bait is a protein-based food for the Ant's protein needs.
- Use both baits for a complete balance of the Ant's dietary needs.
The Maxforce Carpenter Ant Bait Gel contains honeydew, one of the major sweet-based food sources for Carpenter Ants.
The Advance 375 A Ant Bait is a protein-based food for the Ant's protein needs.
Spraying Procedures for Foraging Carpenter Ants
At times you will have foraging Ants that come inside, forage for food, and then return to their outdoor nests.
You can block these foraging Ants using a perimeter treatment with a non-repellent residual insecticides such as Taurus SC or FUSE. Taurus SC and FUSE also control a wide variety of insects including Termites, Spiders, Roaches, Centipedes, Millipedes, Ticks, and many more.
Apply Taurus SC two-four times a year according to label instructions (finished solution percentages may change on frequency of use-see table below).
D Fense Dust
D Fense dust is to be used as a dust in void areas. Use a duster with it for the best application.
Alpine PT Aerosol (Non-Repellent)
Alpine PT Aerosol, fitted with a crack and crevice tip, works well in void areas where you don't know exactly where the nest is located.
|Alpine Ant & Termite Foam
Use Alpine Ant and Termite Foam (non-repellent) when you know exactly where the nest is located.
Carpenter Ant Prevention
Follow these steps to prevent Carpenter Ant infestations:
- Correct moisture problems, roof leaks, and plumbing leaks.
- Cut back tree limbs or branches that could serve as a bridge to your structure.
- Seal cracks and openings around the foundation, especially where utility pipes and wires enter from the outside.
- Stack firewood away from the house, elevated off the ground if possible. Carpenter Ants love to nest in firewood.

Ten Fast Facts about Animals in the Circus
Over a year ago
1. Every major circus that uses animals has been cited for violating the minimal standards of care set forth in the United States Animal Welfare Act (AWA).
2. Animals in circuses spend about 11 months of the year traveling.
3. During travel, animals may be caged or chained for long distances and hours, forced to stand in their own waste, in extreme temperatures.
4. Standard circus industry training tools used on animals include bullhooks, whips, clubs, and electric prods.
5. Animals born in circus "conservation" breeding programs have never been released into the wild.
6. From 1994 to 2005, at least 31 elephants have died premature deaths in the circus. Other circus animals who have died in an untimely manner include horses and lions.
7. Captive elephant and captive feline attacks on humans in the U.S. have resulted in hundreds of injuries, many resulting in death.
8. In the wild, elephants live in large, sociable herds and walk up to 25 miles every day. Most other wild animals found in circus settings, including lions and tigers, are also constantly on the move in their native habitats. In the circus, animals spend most of their time in cages or chains.
9. Officials from the U.S. Department of Agriculture (which enforces the AWA) have repeatedly ignored obvious physical trauma to animals, eyewitness accounts of mistreatment, and sworn testimony from former circus employees who report abuse of elephants.
10. Circuses that feature only human performers are gaining in popularity and provide dazzling, humane, and truly family-friendly entertainment.

Thanks for the info! I just finished a great book called Topsy about the sad beginnings of the circus in America. Sucks what people will do for money.

REDDING, Calif. — The Southern Oregon University softball team was unable to produce a run in its return to the diamond Tuesday afternoon, losing 4-0 and 11-0 at Simpson University in a nonleague doubleheader.
Playing for the first time after a 31-day layoff, the Raiders (1-5) had three hits in Game 1 and four in a mercy-rule shortened Game 2 that went five innings. Two big innings put them under in both games.
Sydney White went the distance in the opener. She blanked the Redhawks (12-3) in five frames, but in the fourth inning she surrendered a two-run homer to Courtney Thomas and a solo shot to Taylor Hill. The other run was unearned, and White allowed just six hits.
Karlie Stephens started and took the second loss as she was unable to make it out of the fourth, when the Redhawks plated nine runs. Six of their runs were unearned.
Sulie Augustine went 2-for-4 on the day for the Raiders and Alexa Gonzalez took two walks in Game 2.
Katelyn Bell and Amy Rodriguez tossed the shutouts.
The Raiders will play their home-openers Saturday in another twin bill against Simpson.

Table for 10: The Dinner Party Leaves the House
By MONIQUE P. YAZIGI
Published: November 29, 1998
A FIREPLACE cast its homey glow as 15 friends at a long wooden table clinked glasses. The women sipped Bellini cocktails, while the men, in jeans and French-blue shirts, fell to talking sports over ravioli alla salvia.
Morgen Schick, the 28-year-old hostess, turned to make sure the guests on her right were engaged in conversation, then turned to the left to see that another friend was served dessert. She cast a glance at her boyfriend, Drew DeMann, a sports chiropractor, to check that he, too, was having a good time.
With a staff of 30 at her disposal, Ms. Schick, who is a model with the Ford agency, felt carefree enough to seek the culprit who had removed her plate, with its slice of a cake that she had bought specially at the Cupcake Cafe. ''I wasn't finished!'' she protested.
She had pulled it off, this dinner party. Not bad for someone who was in Portugal 12 hours earlier on a photo shoot.
What made it all possible was that the party was not in her home but at Serafina, an Italian restaurant on East 61st Street, where private dinners for 6, 8, 10 or more are given almost every night. These are not dinners tucked away in private rooms nor held for business reasons. They are the intimate, private entertaining normally associated with a dinner party at home -- but given in the noisy din of a restaurant.
In a city where apartments are too tiny to accommodate a crowd, where people are too busy to prepare a meal and where many a host prefers the buzz to the quiet of home, restaurant dinner parties are an increasingly popular feature of social life.
They are given in restaurants as gilded as Le Cirque 2000 and as populist as the family-style Carmine's on Broadway in the 90's. Some cost as little as $20 a head, and others run to $5,000 for 20. Hosts have been known to bring place cards, linens, special wines and desserts and, in one case, centerpieces of topiary Labrador retrievers.
''I never have a good time at home,'' said Ms. Schick, explaining why she gave her party at the crowded Serafina, which recently changed its name from Sofia Fabulous Pizza. ''I'm always nervous about everyone doing their job. Here I called 10 days ago. I knew it would be a fun, cool atmosphere in a good location. I give them a credit card ahead of time and I'm done.''
As the city's busiest month of socializing begins, many popular restaurants are booked heavily for private dinner parties.
''I have at least one dinner party going every night,'' said Howard Stein, the owner of Gertrude's, a restaurant in a town house next door to Serafina. ''My place is full of Europeans with pied-a-terres.'' They fly into Manhattan, meet a group of friends over pasta with caviar, then fly home -- as Prince Albert of Monaco did a few weeks ago, when he gave a dinner for 12 at Serafina.
Elizabeth Negrotto, the general manager of Monzu, a Sicilian-inspired restaurant in SoHo, said: ''We see so many small dinner parties now. People bring place cards, and sometimes they ask me to get little gifts, little favors from the neighborhood for the table.''
David Edwards, an advertising copywriter, once had his girlfriend, Solange Amar, cover a table at Monzu with rose petals for a dinner party, which he gives in restaurants every three weeks or so.
''I do it to keep in contact with friends and to build a sort of like-minded circle of people,'' said Mr. Edwards, 38. ''It seems to be the New York thing to do. You have built-in atmosphere. People feel immediately comfortable. It's awfully difficult to replicate that in an apartment.''
Allan Block, vice chairman of Blade Communications in Toledo, Ohio, which publishes The Toledo Blade, visits Manhattan every weekend and invariably gives a dinner for 8 to 10 at expensive Upper East Side restaurants like Le Cirque 2000 and Daniel.
''I like people,'' said Mr. Block, 44, a bachelor who has an apartment in the Ritz Tower. ''I don't like to be alone. The goal is to meet people and to become friends. I don't consider myself selective. It's a matter of who is available and who wants to go out. I organize at the last second.''
He has one prerequisite: ''They have to be people that want to dress properly. I tend to go to places where males are dressed in jacket and tie and women in dresses. If someone is going to dress in jeans, they can't go.''
In this very image-conscious city, where residents may not care to be sized up by their furniture, their addresses or their children, restaurant dinner parties allow hosts to entertain people they don't know well enough to admit comfortably into their homes. It is a safe middle ground, not as personal as home, more engaging than a bar.
The promise of a meal in a trendy restaurant can also lure power guests who might otherwise decline, so that restaurant entertaining can be a means of social climbing. Or, it can be a social leveler, letting the working magazine editor invite out the Park Avenue doyenne. Across a restaurant table, all that matters is one's charm and sense of style.
''We're in the middle of everything,'' Mr. DeMann said at Serafina, looking around. At other tables sat Ivana Trump and the actor Armand Assante. ''Waiters are banging all around. People are giggling. When there's a lull in conversation, there's enough ambient noise to keep the party going.''

D7000 flash
This topic is locked. This message is locked.
I have a problem using flash, even after reading Digital Darrell's book "Mastering the Nikon D7000." I want to use a SB-700 off-camera (wirelessly) as the sole light source. Supposedly when one uses the camera's Commander mode and sets the built-in flash to double-dash mode, the built-in flash does not fire but it will fire the off-camera Speedlite. This does not work for me. Regardless of what I do, the pop-up flash continues to fire along with the SB-700. Anyone have any helpful thoughts on this?
#1. "RE: D7000 flash" | In response to Reply # 0RLDubbya Nikonian since 24th Dec 2011Wed 18-Sep-13 08:26 PM
The onboard flash will fire the "pre flash" sequence to communicate with the remote flash, but fires prior to exposure, and at a much reduced level.
Could this be what you are seeing?
If so, there's a couple paths: you can purchase a SG-IR31 Panel which blocks all the pre-flash light except the IR component. Price is about 15.00.
You can purchase an SU 800 controller, which mounts in the flash hotshoe, and functions as a wireless commander controller. Much more expensive.
Third option: You can also just live with the pre flash sequence - is it impacting your exposure? (it can in some cases)?
If it's not the pre-flash sequence, I'm not sure what you're doing wrong - this should work OK.
#2. "RE: D7000 flash" | In response to Reply # 1Bravozulu Registered since 04th Jun 2012Wed 18-Sep-13 09:11 PM
Be advised that you need to configure the SB700 to act as a Remote Flash. You do so by rotating the power switch to the REMOTE position. You then need to press the SEL button to set power and which group the flash is in. A or B. This configuration must match the group you set on the D7000 under Custom Setting e3.
You can set the flash power on the flash or in e3 on the camera. But groups must be set in both places and must agree.
Bear in mind that the redding Infra Red panel on the flash should be able to 'see' the flash from the camera when it goes off. There are IR panels on the front, rear and one side of the flash (I think). That's why you can rotate the head in so many directions — to insure that one of those IR panels will receive the triggering light from the pop-up on the camera.

I appreciate your thoughts. I notice that the camera fires both the pre-flash AND the regular pop-up flash, so the pre-flash is not the issue. I will definitely check out the other options you mentioned, but am still puzzled why the unit does not function as its supposed to. Thanks.
#4. "RE: D7000 flash" | In response to Reply # 1Wed 18-Sep-13 09:32 PM
Thank you for your response. I did set the remote correctly--figured that out from the SB-700 manual (although that manual, unfortunately, is less clear and detailed than it could/should be, IMO). Also checked with the remote in different positions, so it definitely gets the signal from the camera and it does fire--the problem is that the built-in flash also unavoidably fires. Puzzling. Thanks again. (Oops, just realized this is the reply to #2, not #1. Sorry, I'm new to the site and forums.)

Hi Gary,
Welcome to Nikonians!
>Also checked with the remote in
>different positions, so it definitely gets the signal from the
>camera and it does fire--the problem is that the built-in
>flash also unavoidably fires. Puzzling.
The system is working coorectly.
Wireless CLS uses flash pulses to communicate settings and instructions from the Commander (Built-in Speedlight in your case) to the Remote (SB-700).
In the camera menu under flash you can set the Built-in Speedlight to -- and it will fire the triggering flash at very low power that won't contribute to the exposure unless you are shooting at Macro distances.
Another option is to place a Nikon SG-3IR in the cameras hotshoe. it will convert the flashes white light to IR which will not contribute to the exposure even at macro distances.
Best Regards,
#6. "RE: D7000 flash" | In response to Reply # 5Thu 19-Sep-13 01:30 PM
Many thanks, Marty. It seems I have misunderstood the written explanations of the camera in thinking that the built-in flash should not fire at all in "--" mode, i.e. only the pre-flashes should fire. (I checked again in the camera manual, flash manual, and in Darrell Young's book, and nowhere is that point made, rather the opposite impression is given.) I will test out your suggestion and will look into the SG-31R as well. Thanks again.
#7. "RE: D7000 flash" | In response to Reply # 6briantilley Nikonian since 26th Jan 2003Thu 19-Sep-13 02:01 PM
The D7000 manual refers to the fact that the built-in flash still needs to fire when set to "--" on pages 225-228.
>I will test out your suggestion and will look into the SG-31R
>as well.
If you're trying to search online for that item, be aware that (as Marty says) it is called SG-3IR, not SG-31R - that's a letter "I", not a number "1", as in "IR" for Infra-Red

#8. "RE: D7000 flash" | In response to Reply # 7km6xz Nikonian since 22nd Jan 2009Thu 19-Sep-13 03:07 PM
I think the confusion is coming from the fact that the preflash, response flashes and trigger flash all occur within a few milliseconds and appear to happen while the shutter is open. All of those occur an instant before the shutter opens and whether the commander is set to TTL or --, the flash looks the same.
Even in -- mode, where the built in flash does not contribute to exposure if you are are very close to the subject or set to high ISO or a fast aperture, you might see a little contribution. That is due to in some setting the decay of the flash ignition lasts at low power so some flash output is detected at the shutter opening.
Watching the flash you can't tell if the flash is adding the TTL flash during shutter opening or not since all the flash sequences appear to be one flash. Try an experiment to see the difference between commander being set to TTL and --.

Stan, thanks for your helpful comments. Can you clarify what you mean by the terms, preflash, response flash and trigger flash? I am just beginning to explore adjunct lighting, having been a landscape shooter using only natural light for 20+ years, and am still learning the terminology.
And I did try your suggested experiment but did not see any difference. I have ordered a SG-3IR and will experiment further when it arrives in a few days. Thanks again.
#12. "RE: D7000 flash" | In response to Reply # 10km6xz Nikonian since 22nd Jan 2009Fri 20-Sep-13 02:29 AM
CLS Wireless TTL works by having the commander on the camera:
1.Send a pulse coded burst of light to set the mode for each group of remote flashes(Off, TTL, AA, and M)
2.A pre-flash command coded pulse is sent telling each group to prepare to fire a low power flash.
3. The remote groups sequentially fire a low power flash to illuminate the subject, one group at a time.
4. The metering system calculates the value of flash power needed to properly expose the subject based on the reflected light received by the camera.
4a If the light reflected is too low to get a calculation, the camera emits a pulse of light to tell the remote to flash at higher power
5. After the flash values are calculated, the commander sends a coded pulse that tells each group what power to emit.
6. After a relatively long delay, about 60ms, the flash trigger pulse is sent by the commander for all the groups to fire at their assigned level.
Steps 1-5 are all called Pre-flash but are really a series of up to 9 different binary coded bursts from the commander or respond flashes from the remote. They happen so fast we perceive the entire sequence of 1-6 as one flash. A sensitive subject can easily respond to this by a blink reflex so if close to the subject, do a couple shots to hope to get one with eyes fully open. Shots in rapid sequence can usually precondition the eye to not be so hair triggered. But it means their iris will be closed down which may or may not change the appearance of their eyes.
My measurements of the codes and pulses were based on my building a RF wireless control I built soon after getting my D90 5 years ago. I determined the final trigger pulse occured right before the shutter opened so the remotes could receive the command and initiate the high power flash. The duration of the trigger pulse was adjusted by the camera depending on whether the commander was intended to contribute to the exposure light. If set to "--", the pulse was low power and started in advance by 2-3ms of shutter opening but there was still some light being emitted for the first part of the shutter opening. In TTL mode where the commander was going to contribute to the exposure, the flash duration was increased to be at calculated power still by the time the shutter opened but still trigger slightly in advance of the opening so the remotes could be creating light immediately after the shutter opened.
The more I dug into the system the more amazed I was by how complex it is. I left out some other coding that I deciphered, such as transmission of guide number and slow shutter speeds which changes everything. When I built my RF wireless version of the CLS, I only accounted for basic codes 1-6 so it does not expose correctly on slow rear curtain.

Brian, thanks for your response. Per your reference to the D7000 camera manual, it states on page 225 that in -- mode, "The built-in flash does not fire, although remote flash units do." It goes on to address Group A flash units in -- mode: "The flash units in this group do not fire." Also, on page 227, is this: "Note that even if -- is selected for BUILT-IN FLASH>MODE, the built-in flash must be raised so that monitor pre-flashes will be emitted" which, to me, implies no firing of the primary flash. These lines are what confused me. However, on closer reading today, on page 228 I noted a reference to "timing flashes emitted by the built-in flash." Unfortunately there was no explanation of just what a timing flash is (and a quick web search did not turn up any definition.) Soooo, the manual info appears to be, at the least, unclear and, IMO, somewhat inconsistent. (Of course, user's manuals often are ambiguous or incomplete in part, which is why I got Darrell Young's book, although I have to give credit to Nikon and add that I thought the D7000 manual is actually quite good, overall.)
Per the suggestion (and the manual reference on p. 228), I did order an SG-3IR today on Amazon (along with Hagen's book on the CLS). I look forward to trying out the unit.

As already stated, when using CLS the master fires the trigger flash after the shutter opens. But at such a reduced power it attributes minimal illumination to the scene.
There is a pinned post over in the Speedlight forum that gives a good explanation of the preflash and trigger sequence you may wish to check out. Hal used an SB800 instead of a built in flash, but I don't believe that should make a difference.

I think this topic is covered very well over in our Speedlights and Lighting Forum.
The thread linked by Pete above is a great place to start.

This study in materiality and the tactile sense is intended to build upon Gehry's exploration in using materials in ways which they are not typically used. Through the research gathered, the results will break free from the normal ideals and rely on the tactile sense to help guide the design of the building. Success with the research will create a design that relies less on the usual visual cues of design and allows the feeling of a space to take shape within its texture. By letting texture take precedence over visual appeal, materials become redefined, and designs become more about the physical experience within a space. The point of this study is to go beyond just a visually interesting design, and allow anyone to experience the subtle and not so subtle cues of touch.
Through a series of experiments performed blindfolded, thirty participants gave their insight into such material qualities as the tactile description, smoothness, natural verses unnatural, softness, indoor verses outdoor, public verses private, and emotions, thoughts, or memories provoked when touching the object.
The design will incorporate the research gathered on tactile design with materials that evoke appropriate feelings and reactions, creating an experience for both sight and touch. The building is intended to blend into the environment and allow focus to fall on the habitat through the use of these materials as well as utilizing the site's natural land forms.
The goals of the design are to:
- blend the building into the site without disrupting the existing ecosystem
- incorporate the results, lessons, and interpretations discovered throughout the experiments that explored the tactile sense
- redefine the use of materials in a way that exploits the sense of touch, relays information, and creates a harmony of tactile and visual beauty
- create an environment that focuses on education and conservation to preserve the species of the coastal area of Addo Elephant National Park.
Built into the side of a sand dune, the Addo Elephant National Park Visitor's Center and Penguin Observatory nestles itself into the natural landscape. Winds shape and form the dunes around the building, creating interesting views framed by mounds of sand surrounding the glazing. This also acts as camouflage, allowing curious penguins to investigate up close.
Upon entering the building, you are greeted by a history of the park as you walk along the bamboo reed floor. The floor makes a soft crunching noise as it removes the sand from your shoes. As you continue through the gallery space, you can read about the penguins that live on the site, see what thery feel like, and learn about their lives. As you enter into the observation space, you are welcomed to remove your shoes and enjoy the comforts of wood floor and the padded obesrvation area. In the lecture hall, the ceramic floor anounces the speaker's presence as dress shoes click along the surface.

The force is strong with this one. yeah everyone's playing gta. acvd plays pretty much the same as acv except for the online which is a vast improvement plus there seems to be loads of parts to choose from not just ones that are left or right handed. the missions are vastly kill drones maybe a mech, then kill mech. I'm up to level 8 and haven't had any trouble with any missions which is a shame, not very challenging. the load times are still so slooooow. you can play pretty much the bulk of the game with a good pair of gatts plus rifles I recommend the shoulder auto guns with the 550 ammo count and some arms with double payload. loads of faults but I cant stop playing it

Another 57% believe Bjork's existence provides pretty solid evidence of the existence of elves.
Only 13 percent of participants in the study said it is impossible that elves exist, 19 percent found it unlikely, 37 percent said elves possibly exist, 17 percent found their existence likely and eight percent definite. Five percent did not have an opinion on the existence of elves.I can't locate the research (here's the researcher's website), and I'm not sure how that compares to other western societies, though I believe it to be higher than US, UK and Canadian beliefs in supernatural phenomena (apart from those incorporated into Abrahamic religions) (oh, and homeopathy).
More admitted to believing in ghosts. Only seven percent said their existence was impossible, 16 percent unlikely, 41 percent possible, 18 percent likely and 13 percent definite. Four percent had no opinion on the existence of ghosts.

It will include an Ontario pension plan, tax hikes for high income earners and possibly a tax on cigarettes. With the budget just a day away, things became heated in Question Period as all parties pressed on what's needed for the province.What's still up in the air however, is if the NDP will support it.Tory leader Tim Hudak is gearing up for a spring election, hoping the budget will fall. But the Premier stressed there's a need for investment in roads, education and healthcare - everything that will be outlined on Thursday. NDP leader Andrea Horwath still won't officially say if she'll let the budget pass or vote against it, toppling the minority government and thrusting the province into a spring election campaign. She says she wants to see the entire document first. The budget will be tabled at 4pm and then lead to a required 8 hours of debate over four days. If it fails to pass, the earliest a spring election could be is June 5th and the latest, July 3rd.

What would be the role of Linux in web-based operating systems?
Web Platforms
Could Mozilla's announcement of the Boot to Gecko roadmap, along with the continued development of other web-based operating systems, make the Linux distro you're running less important than the desktop environment?
One of my earliest exposures to the real future of web development was at a Netscape conference in Manhattan, where I remember one of the company executives explaining that very soon, the operating system would not be the platform on which applications would be written, but rather the browser.
That was in 1996. At the time, I had very little conception of what the Netscape people were describing. I don't think I was alone; it would be another half decade or so before the idea of web-based apps would even start to be seen and, even then, in the form of "active" pages and "dynamic HTML."

Welcome to the exciting website of Tony Giles – blind world travel extraordinaire.
Tony on the shore of Lake Louise in the Rocky Mountains, Alberta, Canada.
I am a young person, totally blind and 80% deaf in both ears without my hearing aids. I also had a successful kidney transplant in December 2008. Yet I have visited all seven of the World's continents. I have completed the goal of visiting all fifty states of the USA. I have also crossed the Arctic Circle, visited every country in South America, and all 10 Canadian provinces.
I originate from Weston-super-Mare, near Bristol, in the South West of England. At present I live in Teignmouth, Devon.
I have written several books about my world adventures. The books are travel diaries of the observations and experiences of a blind man as he travels around the world.
Other languages: Español, Italiano
What's New (1st August 2016)
Travel writing
A new mini-site has been created dedicated to my travel writing: Tony Giles – Blind Author and Travel Writer.
Seeing The World My Way, the first in a trilogy of travel biographies, was published in October 2010. I plan to self-publish my second book, travels in north-south America, later this year.
Go Nomad article (26th August 2016)
Tony has written an article for the Go Nomad website – Travelling Blind: Tony Giles Visits West Africa.
Seeing The Americas My Way – coming soon! (15th August 2016)
Tony's second travel book: Seeing The Americas My Way, to be launched as an Ebook, late August 2016.
Seeing The Americas My Way follows Tony Giles, blind solo traveller, through more exciting adventures. Tony's second fascinating travel biography offers a more sensory observation of backpacking. From the sounds, smells and cuisine of Brazil and Argentina to the feel of the rhythm of salsa in Cuba – coupled with the usual adrenaline activities associated with this author.
Country 116 (2nd June 2016)
Tony is now in Belize, country 116.

Country 112 (21st April 2016)
I'm now in Nicaragua, country 112.
Costa Rica (17th April 2016)
So now I'm getting ready to leave beautiful Costa Rica and cross into Nicaragua. Well I've travelled from the Caribbean cost to the Pacific, been near Mount Chirripo in San Geraldo, staying at Casa Mariposa, a wonderful paradise hostel retreat. I've rafted and got sunburnt in Turrialba, ziplined and done my 16th bungee jump in Monteverde, hiked trials, fallen often, cut toes and been attacked by many mosquitos. Yet the one constant thought in my mind is, the Costan people are lovely. Keiner and his lovely girlfriend who I stayed with in Turrialba to Oswalso and Andrea in the small town of Belen near San Jose, whose hospitality and humour I'll never forget. Yes, the country is expensive, especially food and activities, but the nature in its abundance compensates for any expense. The beautiful birds that woke each morning or the howler monkeys with their occasional screech were delightful. I walked and swam in rivers and hiked to many spectacular waterfalls, the highlight being Viento Fresco, about 11km from Tilaran in north Costa Rica. It has been fun and interesting. Bring on Nicaragua and more adventures.
New blog post – Panama and Cost Rica (31st March 2016)
