I bought some great Canadian wool from the Mineville Project series, 600 grams of the superwash Aran weight wool in the colour called Goldenrod, for a baby blanket.
I ordered it online and was hoping for something closer to a clean bright yellow, but it was very Chartreuse. Not the best colour if I'm honest. Canary or buttercup, yes. Mustard-ish, no. I decided to source different wool for the blanket. I found more Mineville Project yarn, this time in the DK weight, and in person, at the Wool'n'Tart in Wolfville. Much better, but I can't share the results just yet!
In the meantime I was left with a garment quantity of gorgeous wool that makes me look jaundiced. Thank goodness for the wonders of dye. I considered either grey or red. Grey could have given some interesting and more neutral results over top of the gold, but decided on the red and hoped for shades of rusted iron.
I used Cushings Perfection dye in shades of Cherry Red and Egyptian Red, hence the moniker 'Egyptian Cherry'. Each colour was splotched over the wool to get a nice tonal, artsy feel to the finished product, then submerged in enough liquid to saturate all the fibres.
Since the base was tonal, I was counting on that to assist with the shading of the new colours.
It worked! There are spots and splashes of dark purple, beautiful lengths of light to dark rust, some oranges, and lovely magenta streaks. Fabulous!
The swatch highlights the many colours that now comprise this custom colourway.
Now to find, or create, just the right garment. Thinking this would be perfect for a useful cardigan with just a few cables or a bit of lace.
What would you suggest?
Have a beautiful week,

Posted on December 20, 2012 in Miscellaneous
Time is running out to receive your order by Christmas, so if you're in need of some quick ideas, check out our Staff Picks. We asked them to pick a racquet, string, pair shoes, apparel piece and one "wild card" they would like to get as gift this year. Below, Tiffani explains her choices.
This has been my go-to racquet for the past six months. I was hooked once we started the playlets. The Formula 100 offers the pop and user-friendly aspects of a Pure Drive, but I like the feel of this Donnay better.
In any gauge, this is one of my favorite strings. I like the 16 gauge because it lasts me a little longer than the thinner ones. What I enjoy most about X-One Biphase is its combination of feel and comfort. Its crisp without hurting my arm. There's plenty of power from it, being a multifilament, but the feel allows me to hit with precision.
Rarely does a shoe fit my wider forefoot, unless specifically made to a D width. The SFX easily accommodates my wider feet, and it does it with plushness, too. Often I like firm padding in a shoe, but this one may make me a convert. Its multi-layered insole featuring memory foam molds to my foot, and offers unsurpassed comfort. Plus, it doesn't feel overly heavy — often a drawback of highly cushioned shoes. Now to get Babolat to make these in some bold colors!
The slender silhouette of this jacket, the chevron shaped vents on the body … these are design elements that make it so flattering and feminine. I'll take this in any color! I also love the Therma Fit because its so warm without being bulky.
Shhhhh…. My mom might be getting one of these from me. I love this bag so much. It fits everything I need as a mom of a toddler and looks stylish doing so. I've had mine for most of this year, and it's still looking great. I've thrown it in the wash to clean it up, though the white stays remarkably clean, and it is no worse for wear. This is just an excellent duffle type bag that packs additional style.

THE ARTICLE by Risser and Mazur1 in this issue of the Archives provides information about the integration of folk and traditional remedies and the use of health services by a Texas Hispanic population. It highlights the importance of knowing the population with whom you work and appreciating their beliefs and practices. In reality, it is unwise to generalize about "the Hispanic population" in the United States. Although many elements are shared in common, each Latin American subgroup has unique characteristics. For example, almost all groups believe in the hot-cold theory of the categorization of illness, foods, herbs, and medicine.2 To restore equilibrium to the sick body, a "hot" disease is treated with a "cold" remedy. However, there are variations among Hispanics about what is cold and hot. For example, Puerto Ricans in New York City regard penicillin as a "hot" medicine. Guatemalans consider this medicine a "cold" remedy.

As Immunotherapy Revolutionizes the Cancer Treatment...
To offset the loss of market exclusivity for its lead product, Lipitor, Pfizer has obtained a slew of generic drugs from Aurobindo Pharma for marketing in the U.S. and Europe. The medications will become a part of the firm's established products business unit, which last year had sales of $10 billion, about as much as Lipitor makes on its own.
Pfizer acquired rights to 39 generic solid oral-dose products for sale in the U.S.; 20 of those will be sold in Europe and 11 specifically in France. These medicines cover a range of therapeutic areas including cardiovascular disease and central nervous system disorders. Pfizer also gained 12 sterile injectable products in the U.S. and Europe. These are antibiotics including penicillins and cephalosporins.
The established products segment was launched in 2008 as a strategy to create smaller, more accountable business units. "Established products has the benefit of Pfizer's strong brand recognition, track record of proven efficacy and safety, broad and deep commercial infrastructure around the world, and a powerful portfolio," explains David Simmons, president and GM, established products business unit.
"Going forward, Pfizer plans to expand the established products business unit's product portfolio through additional activities with Aurobindo and other companies to provide our customers with a wider product offering."
These agreements with Aurobindo are an expansion of a five-product U.S. deal entered into in July 2008. Together, the two transactions bring 44 solid oral-dose products to Pfizer's diversified existing portfolio of established brands in the U.S.

What should I sell this board for?
A kid is interested in my of my boards I never ride..
I'm willing to sell it but I have no idea what shit goes for, I usually just keep them all and hang it up in my Bar at home..
It's a 2011 Neversummer SL 158. I never rode it much.. Maybe 15 times.
Also attached are some 2011 390 Boss bindings, (L) never used them much either.
What are each worth?
Thanks guys !
Never really cared for the SL compared to my Supermodel x and Evo, was disappointed with it.
A kid?
Hook him up with a good price if it's just collecting dust.
I say $200.
On CL in say October, you could probably get $350.
Yeah he's an 18 year old, his father works with me. I'll cut him a deal.
Ya, $200 seems like a reasonable price for the set up. The kid will be stoked off the price, as well.

This is my dinky spot in the world to share some of my best practices and laugh at failed attempts to be much cooler and domestic than I am. I'll share tips on saving money here and there, fun activities in Lansing for kids and adults, saving sanity without a straight jacket, adventures in home therapy for my X-Men Sensory Monster and Not-So-Average-Bear homeschooling. I'll throw in sprinkles of thinking out loud posts about whatever I've been over analyzing for the past week, product reviews and giveaways.

The Keeping Up With the Kardashians star and the only brother to Kim Kardashian and sisters Kourtney and Khloé reportedly has entered TK treatment facility.
Kardashian, 28, whose issues with insecurity and weight gain have been discussed on the show, has recently been living with sister Khloé, and his behavior has worried many members of the family.
The family has tried to stage multiple interventions for Rob, a source told PEOPLE earlier this year, including one intervention attempt by mom Kris Jenner that was chronicled on their reality show.
RELATED VIDEO: Rob Kardashian Is 'Depressed and a Bit Off' Lately: Source
He had been shown in previous episodes working out with a trainer after gaining weight and having some tattoos removed at a laser center. He had gone into business as the creator of his Arthur George line of men's socks, but had shown he was struggling personally in the past year after posting a cryptic Tweet in April of last year.
"No one will ever understand how much it hurts," Kardashian wrote, although his post was later taken down and his whole Twitter account rebooted.
He had previously chronicled his workout regimen and weight loss on the social media site after reportedly gaining about 50 pounds after a break-up with girlfriend Rita Ora.

PARIS — It's ladies first for Paul Smith, whose new Rose fragrance is being launched in the fall.
Each of the other eight Paul Smith fragrances, on the market since Smith signed a beauty license with Inter Parfums SA in 2001, are part of masterbrands that began with the introduction of a men's scent.
Philippe Benacin, chairman and managing director of Inter Parfums SA, said the time was right for a Paul Smith women's fragrance. Not only would it come out on the market one year after the last Paul Smith men's fragrance and more than two years following the last women's scent, but it stems from a personal story.
The fragrance was a labor of love. It began when Smith's wife surprised him to celebrate his 60th birthday with a new, signature genus of rose. She worked for three years on the project with botanist Peter Beales, who unveiled the creation at the Chelsea Flower Show in London, where Smith was led for his birthday treat in 2006.
"My wife asked my assistant to leave that morning free to go with her somewhere," said Smith. "She never does that. I'm always working.
"There was the Sir Paul Smith Rose," said Smith. "It was really romantic. It made me have goose bumps.
"My wife wanted a rose that is tall like me," he continued of the choice of a climbing rose. "It's also energetic, like me. Lots of roses flower only once, but this one starts in April and flowers through September."
It is no wonder, then, that when Inter Parfums executives approached Smith about a new fragrance, the Sir Paul Smith Rose served as his inspiration.
"I always try to have a fragrance that has a true meaning," said Smith. "It is my personal way. There are so many fragrances created around the world in which the actual designers have no involvement. I always feel very nervous about something that is very commercial."
Smith's input is evident in all aspects of Rose, which was introduced in August in the U.K. and will be launched elsewhere in Europe starting in October. Asia and the U.S. are to get the fragrance in 2008.

The musky woody floral scent was created with Givaudan's perfumer Antoine Maisondieu. "I really wanted to work hard to make sure the fragrance was very modern," said Smith, who said it's easy for the scent of rose to remind people of their mothers or grandmothers.
"Antoine literally captured the smell of the Paul Smith rose," said Smith, who called Maisondieu a "Harry Potter." "He got it in a glass container and ran away to Paris with it, and now it's in all of these bottles. I was amazed. I thought he would create something that smelled like the rose, but he actually captured it."
Maisondieu explained he used Givaudan's Scent Trek technology to capture the Sir Paul Smith Rose's smell. "We added green tea, which is very me," said Smith. "Musk is very me, too, being a child of the Sixties." Rose's juice also includes notes of bergamot, mandarin, absolute of rose from Turkey, magnolia flower, plus natural and synthetic cedars. Maisondieu said — like other Paul Smith fragrances — Rose is "sophisticated."
Smith wanted the Rose bottle to feel nice in one's hand, like a heavy fork and knife or a well-made car door. For this reason, the cap is made of metal rather than plastic and the bottle is full of glass. "It sounds and feels very special," said Smith. Each fragrance comes with a rose-printed cotton sachet. For the outer packaging, Smith chose a "punchy, strong graphic — it's modern in every way."
Modernity was key for the print and film advertising, shot by Alan Aboud, as well, said Smith. The campaign includes mostly single and some double pages worldwide, plus 20- and 30-second spots for movie theaters in the U.K.
There is traditional sampling, including miniatures and vials. "The thing you have to understand is that I don't know anything about fragrance at all," said Smith with a laugh. "I am very fortunate to have Antoine and Inter Parfums. I do have confidence in my decisions, and I have known what I have wanted, ever since my first fragrance."
And his vision is paying off. Rose has become Selfridges department store's biggest launch since September 2006, he said, adding, "It seems like we got it right." While Paul Smith executives would not divulge projects, industry sources estimate the Rose scent will generate between $7.5 million and $10 million in wholesale business between September and December.
The Paul Smith Rose collection includes a 100-ml. eau de parfum spray for 69 euros, or $97.20 at current exchange; a 50-ml. eau de parfum spray for 49 euros, or $69; a 30-ml. eau de parfum spray for 35 euros, or $49.30; a 150-ml. body milk for 28 euros, or $39.40, and a 150-ml. bath and body gel for 26 euros, or $36.60 All prices are for France.

Rick, Sarah and Tim have always been the kind of fantastic [show] that brings the geeks and freaks and artists and the creative together in the Portland area... That's why the show always worked before someone mucked with their formula....The Rick Emerson Show traditionally wasn't something you listened to. It was something you participated in with your fellow audience members. You contributed content to it. You gave feedback directly to it... It is that sense of belonging and community and appreciation that has always kept the audience not just dedicated to Rick, Tim and Sarah, but to their advertisers. Companies like Viso and Everybody's Garden Center and Secret Aardvark among many others.... How do you develop that loyalty if you strip a show of everything that makes it great and you reduce it to a bunch of rock records?
ultimate goal of cajoling CBS to changing RES back to the way it used to be.

Yahya related to me from Malik that Rabia ibn Abi Abd ar-Rahman heard Anas ibn Malik say, "The Messenger of Allah, may Allah bless him and grant him peace, was not excessively tall or short. He was not very pallid nor dark. He did not have curly hair or lank hair. Allah commissioned him at the age of forty. He stayed in Makka ten years and at Madina for ten years and Allah the Mighty, the Majestic made him die when he was sixty. There were not twenty white hairs in his hair or beard, may Allah bless him and grant him peace." 'Adi b. Hatim reported: I said: Messenger of Allah, I set off trained dogs and they catch for me (the game) and I recite the came of Allah over it (I slaughter the game by reciting Bismillah-i-Allah-o-Akbar), whereupon he said: When you set off your trained dogs and you recited the name of Allah (while setting them off), then eat (the game). I said: Even if them (the trained dogs) kill that (the game)? He (the Holy Prophet) said: Even if these kill, but (on the condition) that no other dog, which you did not set off (along with your dogs), participates (in catching the game). I said to him: I throw Mi'rad, a heavy featherless blunt arrow, for hunting and killing (the game). Thereupon he said: When you throw Mi'rad, and it pierces, then eat, but if it falls flatly (and beats the game to death), then do not eat that. -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Book 21, Number 4733: 'Adi b. Hatim reported: I asked Allah's Messenger (may peace be upon him) saying: We are a people who hunt with these (trained) dogs, then (what should we do)? Thereupon he (the Holy Prophet) said: When you set of your trained dogs having recited the name of Allah, then eat what these (hounds) have caught for you, oven if it (the game) is killed, provided (the hunting dog) has not eaten (any part of the game). If it has eaten (the game), then you don't eat it as I fear that it might have caught for its own self. And do not eat in case other dogs have joined your trained dogs. -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Book 21, Number 4734: 'Adi b. Hatim reported that he asked the Messenger of Allah (may peace be upon him) about (hunting) with the help of an arrow having a stub end. He said: If it strikes (the game) with its point, then eat, but if it strikes flatly and it dies, that is Waqidh (beaten into death), do not eat that. I asked the Messenger of Allah (may peace be upon him) about (hunting with the help of) dogs, whereupon he said. When you send your dog (for hunting) reciting the name of Allah, then eat (the game), but if some part of it is eaten (by the dogs, then do not eat that, for it (your dog) has caught that (the-game) for itself. I (again) said: If I find along with my dog another dog, and do not know which of (the dogs) has caught (the game). then (what should I do) ? Thereupon he ('Allah's Messenger) said: Then don't eat that, for you recited the name of Allah on your dog and not on the other one. -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Book 21, Number 4735: Adi b. Hatim reported: I asked Allah's Messenger (may peace be upon him) about Mi'rad (i.e. hunting with the help of arrow having a stub end, and he stated the same (as we find in the previous hadith).

Guest Voice by Gary DeSantis: Let's focus on giving, not gifts, for Christmas
Christmas is fast approaching but since I have grown older, some of the wonder of the holy holiday has diminished considerably.
I'm in search of the warm and cozy feeling Christmas gave me as a child. I know it can't be found in what has become an almost completely commercial holiday. I guess this isn't an unusual effort or desire by many in our modern society, and we've come to a shared realization about the changes in Christmas as well.
When a holy day becomes a holiday, the emphasis and perspective of that day changes considerably. In our secular society, there is and must be an effort to celebrate what was originally a religious holy day/holiday across the entire population. America is a beautiful crazy-quilt of different religious beliefs (or lack of) and to foist our Christian sensibility on others is not what this great country was founded upon.
On the other hand, those in our country who want to commemorate the birth of Jesus Christ can't be restricted, either. The controversies of cr�ches on public property are a waste of time and money. Does anyone benefit from not having a religious depiction on a town square? If it does become a point of divisiveness in a community, then, by all means, don't erect one. The birth and life of Christ are about love and hope and not about petty arguments of what can be displayed in a city park.
I, for one, would allow public property to be used for any religious commemoration or nonreligious celebration, for that matter, as long as it was licensed, peaceful and respectful of others' beliefs. Of course, there is a vast expanse of understanding in the terms "peaceful and respectful, but you get the overall picture.
Beyond all that, there is an inverse ratio at work here. The more one sees the religious and deeper meaning of Christmas, the less the giving and receiving of gifts is important. I'm not stupid enough to suggest that the giving of Christmas presents should stop -- my God, our economy would collapse since 30 percent of sales is generated during the Christmas period. What I am suggesting, for Christians, is a re-evaluation and appreciation for the religious basis for the holy day.
Dag Hammarskjold, former U.N. Secretary General, commented, "God does not die on the day when we cease to believe in a personal deity, but we die on the day when our lives cease to be illuminated by the steady radiance, renewed daily, of a wonder, the source of which is beyond all reason."
As Hammarskjold alludes, God does very well whether we believe or not; Jesus does just fine if we celebrate the "true" meaning of Christmas, whatever that means to you. We are the ones who benefit by the religious emphasis on Christmas and in life in general.
Christmas is coming and for all of us, Christians and non-Christians alike, what are we trying to accomplish with our Christmas celebration? How does the recipient or the giver bearing the gift benefit from the gift? If the donor feels good about what he has done and the gift serves the recipient well, then we have a win-win situation. If there isn't a clear and obvious answer, I, for one, will reconsider the gift.
It's a clich� that we must "put Christ back into Christmas," but it's a clich� because it's true and because overall happiness seldom comes from material things. If you're not a Christian or don't have any sort of religious belief, it's still easy to do what is right, charitable, and unselfish -- pretty much what Christians should be doing at Christmas and all the time, for that matter.
I can't guarantee it, but if we all get less gift-oriented and more giving-oriented, for whatever reason, we'll be a lot happier.

Camping on an uninhabited island isn't wise, because you run the risk of encountering drug traffickers in the night. The Guna do not allow the Panamanian coast guard or US antidrug vessels to operate in the archipelago, so the uninhabited islands are occasionally used by Colombian traffickers running cocaine up the coast.

Fruitvale Station was already shaping up to be one of the summer's most-discussed films, a last-day-in-the-life portrait of a 22-year-old unarmed black man killed by a transit policeman on an Oakland BART station platform.
Then it was released in major markets July 12, the day before George Zimmerman was acquitted of all charges in the shooting death of Trayvon Martin. Suddenly Fruitvale is easy to see as something more than a movie — a diagnosis, perhaps, or a part of that sticky vortex we call the zeitgeist.
That's all well and good if it gets more people to see the film, but this exciting debut feature is strong enough to stand on its own. Fruitvale Station is a finely drawn sketch from writer-director Ryan Coogler, fully inhabited by its star, Michael B. Jordan, a keeper ever since his young drug-slinger Wallace became the tragic heart of The Wire's first season.
Jordan's face is a shifting sea of emotions as he enacts the final day of Oscar Grant III, who was killed in the wee hours of New Year's morning 2009, after celebrating with friends in San Francisco. Jordan and Coogler, a Bay Area native, have no interest in making Grant a saint. Instead they cut to the core of a guy with problems — pot dealing, infidelity, prison time — that he's trying to overcome, planning to overcome.
Would he have made it? We'll never know. But Fruitvale Station helps allow him to live on as more than another sad statistic.
The film is sparse and lean, and not averse to the occasional bit of blatant foreshadowing. Then again, there's something preordained to the whole enterprise. Fruitvale begins with cellphone footage of the actual shooting and the chaos that preceded it, a chance encounter on a train that led to a lineup on the platform and an explosion of tempers. The fact that we know how it ends makes viewing all the more difficult. It also lends weight to Coogler's accomplishment of keeping us engaged from start to finish.
We meet and eat with Grant's family, including his mother (Octavia Spencer, who continues to choose her post-Oscar roles well), his uncles and his young daughter. We see him argue and make up with his girlfriend (Melonie Diaz), and observe his failed attempts to get his job back at a local grocery store. In short, we see him do the things that imperfect young people do. Coogler captures these movements with an everyday poetry that bespeaks life as it is lived.
Fruitvale Station's doomed day-in-the-life structure and rhythms reminded me of the Iranian filmmaker Jafar Panahi's exquisite Crimson Gold. In that film, a pizza deliveryman goes through his daily routine and discovers he can't handle the decaying reality around him. He quietly explodes. Oscar, by contrast, has reason to be hopeful. He doesn't give in. It doesn't matter. He still ends up with a bullet in the back.

A little back story on me-- I'm Tami the WAHM (work at home mom) behind Dunk-n-Fluff and now my newest project- Love Notions Sewing Patterns. Sewing has been a part of my world since I was a kid and my grandma helped me sew a pair of pajamas for camp one summer. My mom and my grandma both sew and I grew up around them sewing for me and my sisters. When my daughter Mallory was born in 2004 I started cloth diapering her and got hooked in that world (did you know there was a world devoted to cloth diapers? There really is and it's BIG).
Using cloth diapers naturally led me to wanting to make my own as well as clothing that fit nicely over that big cloth diaper booty. And the rest is history. Since 2004 I have been sewing cloth diapers and custom children's clothing. In my DnF business I use a lot of patterns from other designers as well as Ottobre patterns. If you're not familiar with Ottobre, check them out! They offer a magazine subscription that comes out quarterly with amazing inspiration and the patterns to go along with it.
Through the years though I've developed a few of my own designs and I'm now at a point where I'd like to start offering them as pdf patterns for sale. My style is fun, a little funky (but not too much funk), easy to wear and easy to sew. Mostly, my designs will be using various knit fabrics since that's what I'm most comfortable with and it's a niche in the pattern world I feel where there is room for me and my take on childrenswear.
The Ladies' Trendy Tunic will soon be a staple in your closet. Made with knit fabrics, the tunic length top has simple lines, inset pockets and short cap sleeves. Pair it with tights, leggings or jeans and you're ready to go! It's versatile, fun and modern. Available in ladies sizes XS to XXL. The
girls' Trendy Tunic can also be purchased to make coordinating mother/daughter tops!
Instant downloadable pdf pattern contains:
-25 pages of pattern pieces
-Two pages of inspiration photos from pattern testers
-Cutting guide with illustrated fabric layout suggestion
-A pocket frill variation page
-Instructions to lengthen and shorten the tunic as needed
-Six pages of bright and clear step by step color photos.
-The tutorial has been optimized for most tablets with click or touchable links to each part of the pattern.
-Print only the pages of pattern pieces and use your tablet or computer to read the instructions to save on ink and paper! Alternatively, you may print the whole 45 page document.
With the Ladies' Trendy Tunic you now have the ability to print just your desired size(s)!! When you open up the PDF in Adobe, select the layer thumbnail on the left hand menu and then select the size(s) you wish to print. Please be sure to keep the 'Titles' layer selected at all times.
This pattern also features trimless pattern assembly!
All Love Notions Sewing Patterns may be used in your at home sewing business. Mass production is strictly prohibited.
This pattern is an INSTANT DOWNLOAD, this means it will be available to you as soon as your payment is made (if you pay by e-check then you will not receive the pattern until your payment clears).

'Deadwood's' Ian McShane will spar with Johnny Depp as Blackbeard in 'Pirates 4'
Now this is how you get me interested.
Over the weekend, Greg Ellwood and I both attended the "Alice In Wonderland" press day in Hollywood, where I sat down for some one on one talks with cast and crew while Greg sat in on the press conference. He already brought you the news on "Pirates Of The Caribbean: On Stranger Tides" straight from Johnny Depp's mouth, but today, there's even more news on the next installment in the series, which seems to be quickly taking shape now.
It appears Blackbeard will be a major part of the new film.
And even more interesting? Ian "Deadwood" McShane is playing him.
If you factor in Penelope Cruz appearing in the film as well, along with Johnny Depp as Captain Jack and Geoffrey Rush as Barbossa, this is starting to sound like it could be more fun than the first three films, with a much richer cast. I'll take McShane and Cruz over Knightley and Bloom any day of the week.
Look, I know we don't need more "Pirates" movies any more than we need more "Die Hard" movies, so maybe you're wondering why I'd bring the snark regarding one franchise but not regarding the other. It boils down to potential. I think John McClane is not a character that works in any context. I think his greatest strength was the idea that he found himself in extraordinary circumstances one time and somehow survived. Everything else feel incredibly forced to me.
The world of the "Pirates" films, though, is obviously overflowing with supernatural threats, other pirates, warring factors, and a whole ton of potential. You can tell any story as long as it has to do with seafaring, and the characters will make sense. Dropping the characters played by Knightley and Bloom makes sense because their story finished, but there's no reason you can't tell other stories in that world and introduce new characters.
Depp sounds intrigued by the direction the series is heading, based loosely on the novel by Tim Powers, and the idea that Jerry Bruckheimer, Ted Elliott, and Terry Rossio found a story they liked a lot and bought it to adapt is at least promising. Here's Amazon's description of the novel:
"World Fantasy Award–winner Powers (Three Days to Never) demonstrates a precise control of complex narratives in this reprint of his rollicking and enchanting 1987 novel. Puppeteer John Chandagnac, bound for Jamaica to recover stolen money from his uncle, becomes Jack Shandy after pirates attack his ship and force him to join their crew. Shandy's struggle to accept his new life grounds the story for readers, even as Blackbeard and vodun magicians whisk everyone away to dreamlike lands where the Fountain of Youth itself awaits. The chaotic sea battles sing, though at times key events happen so quickly that they get lost in the shuffle as Jack tries to comprehend where he's going and what's at stake. This dark fantasy tale will appeal not just to pirate fans but also to anyone who appreciates Powers's talent for blending the most unlikely elements into a brilliantly cohesive whole."
Fountain of Youth. Check. Blackbeard. Check. Certainly sounds like what we're hearing about the new film so far. With casting this far along, it sounds like it should be smooth sailing for director Rob Marshall as he preps "Pirates Of The Caribbean: On Stranger Tides" for a May 20, 2011 release.

Waiting for Baby Brippa
Published 05/11/2012 | 06:00
It's an exciting time for showbiz couple Brian and Pippa as they await their first child
'TO me, a happy wife is a happy life," says TV presenter Brian Ormond with a chuckle. "Once you have your family, friends, health and happiness in your life, what more could you want?"
As it happens, both Brian and his model wife Pippa O'Connor are fizzing with happiness these days, having recently announced that they are expecting their first baby in April. Given that its parents are two of the brightest stars in the Irish showbiz firmament, it is safe to say that Baby Brippa is one of the most-anticipated of the celebrity buns currently cooking in the oven.
"I'm very excited," says Pippa. "The moment you see your baby for the first time on the screen and hear their heartbeat, you feel an overwhelming sense of protectiveness. You can't believe that this little being is yours, and straight away, your mindset changes."
The pregnancy has topped off a great year for the warm and bubbly pair, as two previously difficult situations came to very happy conclusions. The first was that having been stripped of his title after he won gold at the Athens Olympics and his horse subsequently tested positive for a prohibited substance, Pippa's brother Cian thrilled the nation and proved himself to be a real hero when he won the bronze medal in showjumping at the London Olympics this summer.
"I'm so proud of Cian," smiles Pippa, who also has a sister Susanna and is very close to her parents, Louise and Tadhg. "Being in London and seeing him win a medal for our country was unbelievable and I'll never forget it. He's an inspiration to us all, and I really admire him as he's so hardworking and focused on his goals and he always achieves them."
The second situation involved Brian's career, as the newlyweds came back from honeymoon last year to the disappointing news that Brian wasn't going to be presenting RTE talent show, The Voice of Ireland.
"That's the name of the game," Pippa says, philosophically. "You can't get everything you want, but it was hard for Brian as he really wanted it and thought the job was his. It wasn't the greatest start to our married life, and it was hard for me to see him so upset and down, but he got over it and moved on."
Since then Brian was delighted to get the job of presenting The Big Money Show on RTE over the summer, and says he had "an absolute ball" working on it. He will also be joining the team for the re-launch of the new Lotto draws, and is quick to credit Pippa for her support and encouragement. "I can't wait, as there's a new set and some new faces," he reveals. "Pippa is very honest, loyal and most of all, loving. I think for a relationship to work, you need to know that the person closest to you has your back and is there for you 100 per cent.
"I am so lucky to have found that in Pippa and I love her with all of my heart. She has a great personality and is fantastic fun on a night out, and we miss each other terribly when we're apart.
"The only thing that drives me mad about her is that she likes to have the house in order. So if I go upstairs and forget to bring up the clean clothes, she'll shout after me, 'Wasted journey!'"
Brian is from Clondalkin in Dublin, and comes third in a family of six children. He says he admires his parents, Jess and Mick, for giving them a fantastic childhood.
He has a 12-year-old daughter, Chloe, from a previous relationship, and she is, he reveals, really excited about the new arrival. "Chloe is over the moon," he says. "She's constantly asking questions, and I think she's at the perfect age for a new brother or sister."
Brian shot to fame in the talent show Popstars, and when Pippa first met him at model Sara Kavanagh's birthday party in 2007, she told him she thought he was cute when she saw him on the show.
"It was the worst thing I could have said," she sighs, amusedly, explaining that Brian teases her by comparing her to Katie Holmes, who had posters of Tom Cruise on her wall growing up.
"Don't know how she fancied me back then with my old hairdo!" he laughs.
Pippa and Brian say that their marriage last year has brought them even closer -- and it even survived that infamous incident where Brian was so captivated at the sight of her bottom as she looked out at the view from their hotel window that he decided to tweet a pic of it. The image of Pippa's pert bum in a tiny pink thong landed in all the papers, but her naughty husband clearly charmed his way out of trouble.
"Brian is extremely funny," says Pippa. "He has a lovely way about him and will give everybody time, and he's genuine, confident and caring. I like confidence in a man, but not arrogance, and he is charming and cool. What drives me mad is he's OCD about deodorant -- it has to be a certain brand and he has a few bottles of it on the go at any one time!"
As a model with the Andrea Roche Modelling Agency, Pippa says that she's not worried at all about her figure changing while pregnant.
She also has no intention of "eating rings around" her either, she says, as that wouldn't be healthy for her or the baby. "As a model, I've always been in control of how I look so now I'm just going to let nature take its course. I'm looking forward to having a bump! It's a whole new exciting chapter for Brian and I, and I'm very appreciative and happy to have someone like him that I adore so much in my life."

Adding funds to eshop using foreign debit card. Is it even possible ?

- Adding funds to eshop using foreign debit card. Is it even possible ?
I have a Ambassador 3DS (ASI region) and I am in India. Nobody sells 3DS eshop cards in India. I want to buy Petit Computer and Colors 3D from eshop (NA) because there is no Nintendo eshop for India region. Heck even my 3DS (which I bought legally in India with tax paid) doesn't have the option to choose my country in countr select. Anyhow I have the US option and can access NA eshop anf download free stuff. No reliable online sites available. I have tried Play Asia and Maximuscards but site reviews are not reliable. Anybody please help ?!
MetalGearTW 4 years ago#2
it won't work. they'll ask you for your ZIP code which has to link with your USA debit card billing address.
Currently Playing: Pokemon Black 2
JPN and EU allow foreign cards.
Try change your country to either Brazil or Canada (or anywhere not USA). Heard some people say it works.
Japanese | Assume JPN Region, unless otherwise stated.
Thanks for your replies !
People who connected to Brazil and used their credit cards had problems like the amount being deducted 3 times instead of once. And if it happens again then there is no way to claim the amount because Nintendo finds out that you are not from Brazil ! Never heard of anyone trying and successfully using the Canadian eshop though so far . Why can't Nintendo open an Indian eshop and let us buy games through it ?! In fact we have our own Indian PSN store ( same content as PSN Europe) !
Mainland EU card works on UK eshop. It didn't even ask for billing address.

Hi kukingina2, thanks for your suggestion. BUT I read some really bad reviews about Maximuscards.com on the internet. Have you actually used their service recently i.e., within one or two weeks ? .If yes , then please reply whether their service is as reliable as they advertise ? ! Thank you !

Great to see another Indian 3DS user here! :D
On topic - I have the exact same problem as you. I am looking to purchase a whole host of games off the eshop (Pushmo, Denpa Men, VVVVVV, etc) and planning to go fully digital, starting with the newest Fire Emblem. I tried purchasing Gunman Clive off the Canadian eshop with my HDFC debit card today... but it just gave me the message that I can't use that card. I didn't receive any messages from the bank either, so I'm guessing the transaction didn't go through.
I am yet to try out the Brazilian eshop though.
It's a damn shame that Nintendo has such a problem in letting us give them our money. If by some chance you happen to add funds using a credit card, let me know!

Never so far have I come across any Indian from India actually owning a 3DS ! Glad to know that I am not the only one ! Thanks for your reply !
FYI I do not own any credit card ; even if I did I will never buy or connect it with my gaming account (eshop). If you happen to own a PSP or Vita or PS3 then there is an Indian PSN store where you can connect your credit card ( ICICI debit card works for 100% sure if you don't or if you have not registered with verified by visa till now) I got myself a lot of PSP RPGs by using the same . My suggestion is don't ever use an Indian credit or Debit card online if you are impersonating as you are from another country. You may not be able to claim anything if you are charged wrongly (i.e., being charged more than once). It is just disgusting to know that people here does'nt know what an eshop card is ! They tried to sell me an R4 card instead.

Added you! (My FC is 4940-6569-9541. Username - lordesmeep)
Ah, unfortunately the 3DS is the only device I have (my brother's PSP is busted :P)... besides it was far easier to find UMDs around here rather than connecting with the PSN. :D Plus, I got into RPGs only recently.
I did try adding funds into the Canadian and Brazilian eshops again but it didn't take. Seems like there is an issue with my card. Actually, my card hasn't been charged even once and, according to my bank statement, the total balance in my account is the same as before. No representative from HDFC has called me either.. so, I'm pretty sure its an issue with my card. I am debating trying to add funds with another card, so I'll tell you if I'm successful.
I was looking around for prepaid cards and there are three places I've found so far that stock them - PcGameSupply, MaximusCards and PlayAsia. PcGameSupply seems rather shady (even though its supposed to be halfway decent) while MaximusCards is more well-known but has terrible reviews (keep in mind though, the bad reviews are from only a few people who have had a bad experience with them). PlayAsia is very reputable BUT their premium on the card is through really high ($29 for a $20 card but a $50 card is for $59). Also, PlayAsia has a brutal lead time on all of its cards (5-15 days till you get the code) but their customer service is apparently effective.
I'm leaning towards maximuscards... but, like you said, I too am plenty paranoid about using my cards online. As for adding funds to eshop, people have been successful in buying things off the canadian eshop (see: http://www.neogaf.com/forum/showthread.php?t=500049 and http://www.neogaf.com/forum/showthread.php?p=42795438).. so you won't know till you try! Of course, it ultimately is your choice to do what you want though :D. (If you do, remember to input a canadian postal code!)
Tell me if you're successful in procuring a prepaid card in some way! Or adding funds!

ZURICH – FIFA has banned three Hungarian and three Bosnian match officials for life after they helped fix two international exhibitions.
All seven goals were scored from penalty kicks when Latvia played Bolivia and Bulgaria faced Estonia in a Feb. 9 double-header organized by a Singaporean fixer at Antalya, Turkey.
Crime syndicates are believed to have made millions of dollars betting on the fixed matches.
The match officials previously had been banned by their national federations.
The Antalya case prompted FIFA to crack down on how international exhibitions are organized. It now has veto powers over referee appointments.
