Discuss: Logitech MX3100
Looking for a quality cordless Keyboard/Mouse set? Logitech released the MX3100 a few months back, which includes the ultra precise MX1000 laser mouse, in addition to a keyboard with tons of functionality. Read on to see if the MX3100 is all it's cracked up to be.
Feel free to discuss the review in this thread once you have read it here. Questions are definitely welcomed, so let me know if I forgot to mention anything.
O've always enjoyed Logitech's wireless offerings.
I've currently got a Logi Wireless mouse, and my wife has a Logi wireless keyboard and mouse...
I've loved the 1000's since they came out, and have seriously comtemplated upgrading, and now, with a keyboard/mouse combo, the choice has gotten even more difficult.
The one thing that I will stand by, is that the keyboard is not a natural type keyboard.
I've got very large hands, and typing on regular keyboards causes me to trip over my fingers. The natural allows me to maintain my productivity, and relieve the pressure on my wrists and hands.
If this is not offerend in a Wireless Natural variant, then me and my current wireless mouse, and my wired MS Natural keyboard are going to keep on trucking!

Century Farms and Ranches Web Exhibit
Vaughan Farm
About the Vaughan Farm
Established by William Hatchette Vaughan in 1844
Location: Clackamas County
Current Owners: Jack E. Johns, Eugene Vaughan, Floyd Vaughan, and Carol Gienger
William Vaughan was a member of the Great Migration of 1843 - part of the first wagon train to go all the way from Missouri to Oregon. That same year at Champoeg, a provisional government was organized that approved allowing new immigrants a land claim of no more than one square mile, or 640 acres. The Vaughan claim was located two miles from Molalla. It was one of the earliest in the Willamette Valley south of Oregon City and was later confirmed as a donation land claim. Vaughan was a prominent figure in early Oregon and became a large landholder as he acquired adjacent claims over a period of time. Cattle, sheep, wheat, hay, a fruit orchard, and vegetables were raised in the early years.
Cattle are raised on the 107-acre parcel left from the original claim of 164 years ago.

An exciting adventure series set during the French and Indian War.
Ticonderoga tells the story of Captain William Taylor and his Mohawk scout Degadawidah who are charged to escort Captain Carlton Campbell of the 42nd Highlanders through the dangerous lands of the Huron to Fort Edward, where the British are making plans to march on the French held Ticonderoga. On the journey they meet young orphan Adam Cobbs who receives a baptism by fire in the harsh and bloody wilderness of New York State.
With drums beating and bagpipes wailing, Ticonderoga is a musket blasting adventure on the epic scale that The Colonial Radio Theatre has become known for.
©2012 Jerry Robbins (P)2012 Brilliance Audio, Inc.
"Absolutely Awsome! couldn't stop listening!"
I was listening on imagination theater, couldn't wait for the next monthly show so i bought the e-book ! better than any television or radio show I can think of ! I've listened twice consecutively, now have to try to find an equal . I do warn , extremely realistic fight scenes - sounds ( FYI )
Powder Rivers #1 Fan!!!
"CRT, does it again."
Another great production by the Colonial Radio Theatre on the air. The cast and crew of this production deserve high recognition for another great production. Thank you CRT.
"Just as good as Powder River"
This is a story about the colonial times. some of events mentioned are actually factual, but the story is obviously fictional. the four characters are a good mixture to the story. there is humor but yet seriousness to the story. you will enjoy it!
"The start of my love for audio books started here."
Danger Adventure honor
I loved learning the history of that area of the country, I learned about an area of our great nation that I didnt know much about.Friendships were formed from unlikely sources.Human spirit proved to be what formed our country, sacrifices were made by all.
I have listened to several Colonial Radio Theatre productions, This one is my favorite, but thats only because it is the one that got me started listening, CRT has several exciting productions that I love and they are coming out with more all the time.
Captain William Taylor, (Jerry Robbins) As Captain Taylor Id love to hear storys of his adventures, As Jerry Robbins Id love to know how CRT started.And who and what inspired him to start CRT.
Very dramatic keeps you on the edge of your seat never a dull moment.Well written and performed by the whole cast.
"The French and Indian War comes alive!"
Lock, Stock, and Barrel. Ticonderoga is a perfect introduction to the French & Indian War.
One of the most memorable moments in Ticonderoga is when the boy Adam realizes what is in the well, and how it effects his life. And how lucky he is to be in the company of men who understand. Brilliantly done CRT.
Captain William Taylor performed by Jerry Robbins is my favorite. I can most identify with the character's leadership and how he handles situations and men. I'm a former military man and Mr. Robbins did a thorough and realistic job of portraying his character.
Woods Dark and Furious.
This CRT production has a high replay factor. Excellent for long trips, either in the car or on foot.
"History comes alive!!"
The whole recording is great but the final battle had me running for cover. Turn up the surround and be ready for a unique experience
If you like Colonial Radio Theater this is the best! If you like adventure and excitement with history thrown in then this is for you. Love it
"Loved it!"
Great Story, Great Performances, I enjoyed this more than any other Audible title. And the price is fantastic!
"The best stuff!"
I just love the story of Adam Cobb!
Great character development!
This is really great family fun!
"So Horrible I Had to Stop Listening"
The story and acting were all horrible. It felt like an after school special version of an audible book. It included silly dialogue and stilted acting.
Have less ridiculous dialogue that was less like a bad 1970's tv special.
The actors playing the part seemed to have an odd style. This was not really so much a narration as an acting with sound effects thrown in. It was jarringly poorly done.
I prefer a story read by talented actors to something acted out as a TV story without visuals.

I think back 35 years or so when I was just getting started (has it been that long?) and my first post-secondary courses out of the gate were in computing science. It was pretty hard to see where it was all going to go back then, with card-punchers and line-printer output, but you could feel there was something interesting going on.
At best, the applications of computing technology back then were pretty limited - I eventually landed work running computers for seismic data processing, doing plots of the Beaufort Sea, Hibernia and North Sea exploration areas. But the attraction of computing wasn't in what it did in the oilfields - it's that it was a mixture of electronics and media. And this interested me very much.
We don't think much these days about where all this came from. We don't think about the investments we had to make not only in the engineers who created Northern Telecom, nor especially the investment in public money that paid Marshall McLuhan's salary.
Alec Bruce wrote this morning, " if you don't invest in good ideas, for the sake of good ideas, you can hardly expect to benefit from the commercialization of new technologies and processes at the end of the cycle. That's because ideas belong, first and foremost, to people.
"The fewer people exercising their intellectual chops in university research institutes, the fewer people remain to give industry what it most desperately needs: the ability to compete domestically and internationally."
He cites James Turk, executive director of the Canadian Association of University Teachers: "Basic research really is what creates the scientific capital out of which applied research, practical things, commercial things, arise."
The same logic applies for individuals as much as it does governments and societies. If you plan your future around what makes money now, you'll always be chasing whatever it is that makes money now, always a bit behind, never able to catch up.
Industries and industrial ages span generations, not business cycles. This remains as true today as it did in the era of the railroad or the age of plastics. We feel what appears to be rapid change, but that is because we are so close to the ground. Looked at more globally, we've hardly sped up at all.
My conversation with George Corriveau revolved around farming and food production, agriculture and agribusiness. My first thought was that we would be foolish is we turned our backs on basic research in farming. Part of this is demand - there are 7 billion people that need food every day right now - and part of this is innovation.
I heard the other day about a girl who grew algae under her bed to produce oil; her work won top prize in an international science fair. Now it's nice work, though of course the science of extracting oil from algae is well-established. Even the NRC has a fuel-from-algae program. But like the information sciences the generation before, what's interesting isn't the oil exploration, it's the basic scientific ideas underlying the technology.
That's why my first thought was to put the concepts of food production and algae together. And again, after a moment, to reflect on the basic medium of algae as a means to broader application, ranging from energy to food to plastics to whatever. Because algae are basically carbon extraction and conversion mechanisms - tiny small scale factories we are now learning to grow.
I'm currently falling behind in our online McLuhan reading group. But there's still enough McLuhan resonating in my brain right now to remind me that algae isn't a food source, nor an oil production technology, but rather, it's a medium, an information-bearing substrate, onto which we can (and will) write any of our needs and values.
Another thing I read about this week is the graphene supercapacitor. Graphene is essentially a mesh of carbon atoms - think of it as like chicken wire composed of bonded carbon atoms one atom thick. It's touted as the world's lightest material. Meanwhile, capacitors are things that store electricity. It's like a battery, except that it doesn't generate free electrons, it only stores them. Graphene capacitors have the potential to charge more quickly and store more electricity than conventional batters (good thing, too - the world supply of lithium is limited).
Well, if you can grow oil, you can grow graphene. All you need are tiny carbon extraction and manipulation factories, like selected algae strains. Or genetically enhanced algae strains. Or other forms of microbial life.
So, if I were looking at a career in 2013, thinking about what I would want to be a world-leading expert in by, say, 2050, I'd be looking at a career in carbon.
I want to say one word to you. Just one word. Benjamin: Yes, sir. Mr. McGuire: Are you listening? Benjamin: Yes, I am. Mr. McGuire: Carbon.But what does that mean, exactly? Well, at this point in time, it means getting a basic education in organic chemistry and the life sciences. Not so much medicine, because it's so consumer-driven. But basic biology. Genetics. Microbiology. In the way I learned how to program in the 1980s, I would today be wanting to learn how to make new forms of life do things I want them to do.
Tiny life forms will be the dominant technology of the mid-21st century. We will use virii as DNA and anti-cancer delivery systems. We will microlife them instead of ink to create objects in 3D printers. It will produce our food and energy storage systems. We will learn to see ourselves not as single entities but as complex organisms composed of microlife, and learn about how to manipulate and regulate our internal microcosms.
I could go on along this vein, but you get the idea. I don't know today what the carbon culture will look like, no more than I could have predicted where the silicon culture would lead us in the 1980s. But list like I could feel a sense of something developing in electronics, I can get the idea of something developing in 21st century bionics.
And I'd be telling the youth of today (like my father told me, in an earlier generation) to become an expert in this new technology - don't worry about the job, the work, the income, worry about developing that capacity and expertise, so that you live, breathe and speak bionics - if you in the next generation can become as familiar with the carbon atom as I became with the bit, then you'll be in a good position.
That may feel like a long way from farming. But it isn't - not really. As McLuhan would observe, they're both part of the same industry.

Less than a thousand dollars. That's how much the solar pool heater will cost Viewpoint School in Calabasas, Calif. The solar installation project was completed in April and passed its final inspection in May, making it the first commercial solar pool heating system in Southern California to qualify for a new rebate under the California Solar Initiative Thermal Program.
Legislation for the commercial pool rebates went into effect in January 2013, but suffered from delays. By March, solar companies were lining up projects.
At Viewpoint School, Catersolar of Woodland Hills, Calif., installed 72 solar panels manufactured by Lakewood, N.J.-based Aquatherm Industries to heat the school's pool. The total project cost was $60,001. Because the project will save the school 8,432 therms of natural gas per year, the school will receive a $59,024 rebate.
The program is tiered, meaning the first eligible projects will get the most reimbursement.
"There are over 40,000 commercial pools in the state of California at places like schools, hotels, gyms and homeowners associations – the majority of which are heated," said Dave Sizelove, president of Aquatherm. "Facilities often have no choice but to continuously heat these pools, which uses an incredible amount of energy."
Sustainability is incorporated at all levels at Viewpoint. While the school would have added a solar pool heater at some point, Mike Adams, director of physical plant at Viewpoint, said the rebate made the installation possible sooner. The new solar heater is the primary source of heat for the 3,500 square foot pool.
"It's tangible, in that you can see how many BTUs of energy the system is generating," Adams said. "That's energy that would have come from natural gas before. It's also an incredible piece of infrastructure to be able to add to the school. It makes a statement. Wherever an institution can make its mark, as far as sustainability goes, I'm all for it."

Greetings . . .
I am having difficulty finding "expeller-processed soybean flour" and "brewer's yeast" (animal feed??).
Health-food stores think Im crazy when I ask for flour thats been expeller processed. Guess Im looking for a by-product of the extracted oil?
Brewer's yeast implies; something used for "home-brew", but I have read is also some kind of aminal feed.
Help or suggestions?

How do you hold the boards when assembling hive bodies?

How do you hold the boards when assembling hive bodies?
[This message has been edited by magnet-man (edited August 30, 2004).]
I made a jig to hold the parts in place.
It is a board that is about four inches larger than the box with two inch boards fastened around the edges to hold the box tight and square while I screw the parts together.
I order my boxes without the holes prepunched as they tend not to be in the proper place anyway. I drill/countersink for the screws, apply the Gorilla glue, set the box in the box jig, and apply the screws.
Gorilla Glue, best stuff ever...
I'm with Bullseye.
Are screws better?
You have to stop and smell the roses......but please watch out for my bees.
The best is glue and screws but to do this correctly rquires drilling a countersunk pilot hole for each screw. The easiest and quickest is a staple gun or a nail gun.
Only Bullseye Bill answered the questions. Everyone else who left post needs to answer how you do it.
Make a jig just like a frame nailing jig only wide enough for more than one box and long enough for a Lanstroth box instead of a frame.
I made a square box minus one of the short sides. I make my boxes with the lap joint which alows me to glue each piece and I use a bar clamp to hold it in place while I drill and screw them together.
I made a jig as well. Took a piece of plywood about 4 inches bigger than a hive body. Attached edges to two sides using glue and screws (long side and short side, not opposite). The other two sides I attached 4 wedge shaped blocks with about 1/4 extra space (two per side. Like a door stop on it's side). Then I simply put the four hive sides in the jig once joints are glued and snug them up tight by tapping additional wedges in between the hive body and the wedges glued to the jig. Not only do the hive bodies come out perfectly square, but the tapped in wedges make extremely tight joints without using pipe clamps.
No jigs here. I apply titebond II, tap the fingers together, throw on a couple of bar clamps while I nail it with a 15 guage 2.5" finish nailer. Once nailed, the clamps come off before the glue dries. I check for square while clamped. Only takes a few minutes per box.
I cut 2 pieces of 3/4 inch plywood to the inside demensions and insert them in the top and bottom of the boxes. This will make all the corners uniform and square if you cut the pieces right. Then I remove the plywood and set the box out to dry while I build another
Clinton Bemrose
just South of Lansing Michigan
I don't make that many hive bodies so I have not yet made a jig. I glue and use a rachet tie-down to hold the body until the glue dries.
Thanks for the ideas! Time to make my jig.
The problem with the strap is it pulls from one side and gets the box out of square. I have some cheap hand squeeze bar clamps for lack of know what they call them. They release easy and are quickly tightened. I put 12 boxes together in 30 minutes with my jig and clamps.
Hillbillynursery, I have had that problem and you have to fidle with it. Major pain in the ???. Now that I have to make 50 boxes I will be making a jig.
[This message has been edited by magnet-man (edited September 06, 2004).]
I question need for a jig. I have an open pot of glue with a glue brush. I put the two shortest pieces together and brush glue on both edges, then set them aside. Then I pick up the longer sides, put them together, brush on the glue, then assemble, use a rubber mallet if needed to get them to go togehter. Then I pick up my staple gun and have it stapled in a flash.
at this point the glue is still not set. So I have a big carpenter's square. If it is not square (and 70% of the time it is) I simply put the box on one corner and smack it with the mallet to get it to go square.
>I question need for a jig.
The reason for me to use a jig is that the screws I use do not bend like your staples, so the box does not flex like yours does.
If I try to bend mine after screwing it, it will not change shape, it goes right back to the shape it was in when it was screwed together.
Good point Bill. I am sure the screws are better. my world would fall apart without drywall screws! I don't hvae much experience on longevity of my system. Maybe I should start screwing around more!

He approaches his craft from both traditional and modern techniques; each piece meticulously handcrafted with a keen eye for detail. There is a great value in furniture that is built to such a high quality that it will stand the test of time, an admirable use of a natural resource in today's disposable world.
The lumber is picked through sustainable mills and yards, He is a believer in finding the right board for the job both structurally and aesthetically, but also in trying to reduce wasted material. He also likes to mill his own sustainable lumber from domestic logs and air-drying it. Many of the exotic or rare woods used come in the form of veneer, which preserves some of our most valuable and rare species.
These pieces are one of a kind, built one at a time. Built and designed to last generations.

The two best players in the field will contest today's ASB Classic final, with top seed Agnieszka Radwanska to take on former champion and now three-time finalist Yanina Wickmayer.
Radwanska won through by claiming two tough sets from hard-hitting American Jamie Hampton, with both decided by a tiebreaker.
Wickmayer, the third seed, outlasted destructive German Mona Barthel in a three-set classic, triumphing 6-4 1-6 7-6 in 1h 47m to book her third final appearance in the last four years.
The 2010 champion was the dominant player on her side of the draw, but she came under considerable pressure yesterday when she was blown away in the second set after taking the first comfortably.
"In the second set, I didn't think I did anything wrong," Wickmayer said. "She was just smacking the ball and everything was going in. Some points I just didn't see the ball, it was going too fast for me."
That whirlwind second set lasted just 22 minutes, however Wickmayer showed good composure in the third to force the match into a final set tiebreaker.
Radwanska's match was also decided by a tiebreaker after a wild second set that saw the Pole streak to a 4-0 lead before the free-swinging Hampton peeled off five straight games.
Hampton had a set point serving at 5-4, however she double-faulted, handing the momentum back to Radwanska for the final time, with the Pole closing out a 7-6 7-6 victory.
"It's great to be in the final, especially in my first tournament this year," Radwanska said.
"I'm going to do everything in my power to win it."
The world No 4 will be chasing her 12th title, while Wickmayer is in pursuit of her fourth.
With her classy all-round game, Radwanska will start a strong favourite.
"She's a struggle to a lot of players," Wickmayer said.
"It's really tough playing her, especially with my game. I hit the ball really hard and she just counters. She's always there, runs really well and it's really tough to get winners to her.
"It's going to be a tough match for me to find a balance between being aggressive and not making too many mistakes. Once I find that rhythm, I think we are going to have a good match."
1-Agnieszka Radwanska (Poland) bt Jamie Hampton (USA) 7-6 7-6.
3-Yanina Wickmayer (Belgium) bt 8-Mona Barthel (Germany) 6-4 1-6 7-6.

If you are will to take the time you will see we right here in the US have vast oil reserves that some believe will last over 100 years at the current and expected rate of use. But our government insists on using "THEIR" oil, a grass roots action needs to be started if we as a nation are to stay strong.

This is the my first year into bees so I am trying to learn alot in a short amount of time. As I blunder through and purchase my components I see something which seems very odd to me but I'm assuming is "normal". I have decided to go all 8 frame mediums and bought my unsassembled boxes from Mann Lake along with the standard plastic frames. After assembling the boxes and inspecting them over for a good tight fit, I found I can actually squeeze 9 frames in. Why is there so much extra room? I had thought that by being way over 3/8" extra without the ninth frame I will have serious burr comb issues. Should I build a jig to evenly space the frames across the box?
On this note about extra room, I find it unnerving that since the frames can be all over the place there is no way the slots of my slatted rack (from Brushy Mountain) will line up very well. I knew going into it that Brushy Mountain made their 8 frame items 1/4" smaller but even then I think I would have a lot of slop.
Thanks for any info

ROKAFELLA (Anita Garcia) and KWIKSTEP (Gabriel Dionisio) lecture on NYC hip-hop street culture in the afternoon and perform in the evening at MIT's Kresge Little Theater (September 24; 617.253.2877). Terrific jazz choreographer DANNY BURACZESKI headlines the showcase of dances by BU DANCE FACULTY AND ALUMNI with guest dancers from BOSTON BALLET II at the BU Dance Theatre (September 28-29; 617.358.2500).
October begins with the timeless and eerie BUNRAKU NATIONAL PUPPET THEATER OF JAPAN bringing two traditional plays, Oshichi of the Fire Watch Tower and Miracle at the Tsubosaka Kannon Temple, to the Cutler Majestic Theatre (October 2-3; 800.233.3123).
MARCUS SCHULKIND's yearly fundraising concert at Central Square's Green Street Studios features some of the best freelance dancers in town, and this year his choreography will be presented by a cast that includes Harvard-physics-student-turned-William-Forsythe-dancer Elizabeth Waterhouse and 14-year-old wunderkind Nina Brindamour (October 5-6; 617.864.3191). That same weekend, JOSÉ MATEO BALLET THEATRE begins its fall repertory season at the intimate Sanctuary Theatre in Harvard Square (October 5-29; 617.354.7467). CLAIRE PORTER's Namely, Muscles solo demonstrating the 96 major muscles of the body through 30 poems should give audiences at the Harvard Dance Center the giggles (October 27; tickets free but reservations required; 617.495.8683).
BOSTON BALLET brings out some razzle-dazzle on its return from its Spanish tour in a one-night gala benefit at the Wang Theatre (October 12; 617.456.6246), then follows up with a program that juxtaposes Sorella Englund's chilling staging of Bournonville's La Sylphide with the architectural finesse of two short Balanchine/Stravinsky pieces, Monumentum pro Gesualdo and Movements for Piano and Orchestra (October 18-28; 800.447.7400).

Gordon Ramsay's Ultimate Cookery Course (Hodder & Stoughton $49.99)
I have only one Ramsay book, but it's well-used because it is so practical. In this latest volume, Ramsay reassures us he is not trying to turn readers into Michelin-starred chefs, nor spend hours "primping in pursuit of perfection". He simply wants to teach people to enjoy cooking good food at home and build their confidence. He offers advice on basic kitchen kit before launching into "Classics with a Twist", the first of 10 step-by-step recipe groupings. As a sign of the times, he includes "good food for less", along with equally useful suggestions for "cooking for one or two" and "cooking for crowds". He winds up with an invaluable round-up of basic skills, including how to make stocks and sauces. Super-smart recipes; no gimmicks
Who Put The Beef In Wellington? by James Winter (Kyle Books $45)
James Winter, who produces the BBC series Saturday Kitchen, occasionally shown here on the Food Channel, has put together a bright and breezy illustrated survey of 50 classic recipes and the intriguing stories behind them.
It starts with caesar salad, created in 1920s America (Prohibition times) by chef Caesar Cardini, who decided to open a restaurant in Tijuana, where liquor was legal. It became so popular with boozy Hollywood stars that one night, when Caesar ran out of food - except lettuce and the ingredients for dressing - he improvised and made a salad "at the table". Caesar's salad became so hip that socialite Wallis Simpson fell for it and took the recipe to Europe. The book is jam-packed with juicy stories, including Henry VIII's passion for apples, the connection between beef carpaccio and Harry's Bar in Venice, and why lobster thermidor has its origins in the French Revolution.
Easy by Bill Granger (HarperCollins $59.99)
The always-steady Bill Granger returns with his 10th book, this time with section headings like "piece of chicken", "mince and sausages", "carton of eggs". Basic Bill seems to have his health/weight in mind these days, with references to recipes that allegedly help keep the arteries clear (butter chicken made with yoghurt) and the discovery that his waistline loves fish "three times a week", quickly adding he tries to buy fish that's sustainable (but then fudges by specifying "firm white fish" for the recipes instead of naming suitable species). His chapter on mince and sausages is prefaced by asking how he can make mince "sound sophisticated and worthy"; unnecessary when he follows that up with a useful series of recipes that include DIY cevapcici (little mince and lamb sausages).
The Second Black Dog Cottage Cookbook by Adie McClelland (Phantom House $45)
McClelland's first Black Dog book was a quiet charmer with nice photos and a heavy Greek influence on the Wellington food writer's recipes. It's more of the same here, with some Asian notes as well. Greek food is a cuisine woefully under-represented in this country and, done well, it's light, herby and tasty. Rice soup with chicken ("a great antidote for hangovers!" McClelland cries); stuffed tomatoes; Easter torte ... but then we get lamb curry, pork Southeast Asian style, Pacific beef salad. So it's a mixed bag in terms of unity but, like its predecessor, it's a modest pleasure.
A Global Feast: Traditional Meals In A New Homeland by Afife Skafi Harris & Beryl Lee (Otago University Press $39.99)
Lebanon-born Harris, who teaches cooking in Dunedin and Lee, a former teacher, now president of Dunedin's multi-ethnic council, have spent four years putting this book together. It's a simple concept: 28 immigrants briefly describe their lives back in their homeland and the central role of cooking in their families then and now, before sharing some key recipes. As some were refugees, their stories are shot through with poignancy and longing; and the food of their cultures is a vital way of maintaining contact with their families, even if only in spirit. From Fatima and her Somali food to Toktam and her Iranian food, the book includes an impressive array of recipes and stories from places as diverse as the Czech Republic, Afghanistan, Turkey, Indonesia, Brazil, Jordan and Costa Rica.
Clarissa's Comfort Food by Clarissa Dickson Wright (Kyle Books $39.99)
Good old Clarissa. There's no non-sense tolerated here, which is obviously widely appreciated, with more than 60,000 copies already sold of the hardcover edition of this book. She notes that as she began writing it, she was driven out of her home by dry rot and remained "cast out", due to the incompetence of her builders, heaven help them. So she was writing about comfort food while staying in other people's houses. The book is dedicated to Sonic, a friend's old greyhound, which ate all her "mistakes". Her old mate Jennifer would be amazed: Clarissa has included a tofu recipe (aubergine and smoked tofu), unthinkable back in the day. But fear not. By the time you come to her fish pie, topped with mashed spud and grated cheddar, cornish pasties (with turnips), sausage casserole, and steak and kidney pudding, you find yourself under some sort of stodge spell, slap bang in the haze of summer. It's the magic of Clarissa.
Mark Hix On Baking (Quadrille Publishing $49.99)
British restaurateur and Independent food columnist Mark Hix (who served the last lunch to bon vivant Keith Floyd before he had a fatal heart attack) reckons most cooks he knows run a mile when they hear the word "baking". But, he points out, baking is not just about cakes but savoury dishes as well - and "anyone can bake" because, technically, anything cooked in an oven is "baking". The book covers sweet pies, tarts, biscuits, puddings, cakes and breads, plus some ambitious savoury dishes like fish and meat (veal baked in hay), veg (lobster thermidor baked potatoes) and pies (crab and seashore vegetable tart; ham hock, snail and wild garlic pie). So, quite advanced recipes for adventurous
palates and cooks.
The Art Of The Restaurateur by Nicholas Lander (Phaidon $55)
If you are already a restaurateur, have ambitions to become one or simply want to get an insight into the world of restaurants from high-end cuisine to bistro cafes, look no further than this engaging collection written by Lander, former owner of L'Escargot in London and highly regarded food columnist for the Financial Times. Lander argues that great restaurants are not made by great chefs alone; they must have a team which offers the customer a sense of warmth as well as good food. The opening chapter is about his own experiences at L'Escargot when he opened it, at the age of 29, in 1981. He then moves across a diverse range of places and people, including Australia's Neil Perry, elBulli in Spain and Trevor Gulliver at St John in London. The stories are gripping, the characters fascinating and the book is enlivened by lovely line drawings by Nigel Peake.

It was a typical day in the Karachi factory as men prepared to get ready for the day's work in the leather factory. The men chatted, and for some reason the conversation got on the topic of religion. Words were exchanged, the conversation became more heated, and voices rose in anger. Suddenly, one of the men accused their friend of saying things that were outrageous. He pointed at the man who uttered the words, others began to shout at the man, and within moments a crowd gathered. They picked up whatever they could find to use in beating the man, their anger grew to fury, and within moments, the man was beaten to death as the group cheered at their deed. As a mob prepared to burn the corpse, police arrived and prevented this last piece of anger from unfolding.
The man who was beaten to death in the leather factory in Karachi was a Hindu. The men who beat him were Muslims. Their argument centered around the Koran and the Muslims insisted their friend has defamed the name of Muhammad and was guilty of blasphemy. The Hindu was a member of a small minority of people who were Hindu living in a predominantly Muslim community. Although, most Muslims and Hindus live in peace in Pakistan, there are always these isolated incidents when religion gets in the way of friendship and can result in death.
It was just another day at work in the leather factory.

Naveen Kella
Surgical robot expert speaks at alumni breakfast
By Marcia Mattingly
UTSA Office of Alumni Programs
(Sept. 28, 2007)--The UTSA Alumni Association presents surgical robotics pioneer Naveen Kella, M.D., as speaker at the next Connections Breakfast at 7:15 a.m., Tuesday, Oct. 9 at the Marriott Northwest hotel, Loop 410 at Interstate 10. Kella will speak on "Surgery from Home: The Future of Robotics in Medicine."
Today's headlines
- La Prensa Foundation is newest member of UTSA Lone Star Society
- UTSA alumna Jordan Kaufmann wins $50K for new stent-graft start-up
- UTSA begins new way-finding sign installation this summer at Main Campus
- USA Today: UTSA long jumper Tyler Williamson rescues three-year-old boy

With his talk, Kella will share film footage of next-generation robotics in action. As one of the nation's most experienced robotic surgeons, he completes at least 25 robotic procedures each month. Patients from around the world travel to San Antonio seeking his expertise.
The first generation of surgical robots already is installed in a number of operating rooms around the world. Although they aren't autonomous robots performing surgery on their own, they lend a mechanical helping hand to surgeons.
Kella did his undergraduate work at Stanford University and earned a medical degree at University of Texas Southwestern Medical, Dallas. His residency was at Tufts New England Medicine Center, Boston. He and his wife live in San Antonio.
Open to all, Connections Breakfasts are excellent opportunities to reacquaint with UTSA alumni and meet community leaders. Corporate table sponsorships are greatly appreciated.

Good looking dogs,post new pix of moxy when she gets older.
This is Bo, we had to put him down this year because of a degenerative spinal condition. We miss him dearly.
This is Cash and Moxy. Cash has the white face. He is a "Blue" pit bull. Moxy is the dark tan/brown. She is a Blue Fawn. At certain angles, her coat gives off a bluish sheen. Moxy was born on May 31, 2009.
And here is another picture of Moxy, this is the day we brought her home, she was 5 weeks old:
Good looking dogs,post new pix of moxy when she gets older.
Here is Cash and Moxy, who was 10 weeks old here. She was about 20 lbs.
They are both pretending to be well behaved:
Moxy, getting up close and personal. Again, at 10 weeks old.
She doesn't listen quite as well as Cash does yet. Notice how he is still sitting nicely in the back.
Here she is at almost 11 weeks old, she is very curious, and has to know what's going on all the time:
Last, but not least...I woke her up from her nap to get one of those half awake looks
Last edited by falchunt; 08-11-2009 at 12:19 PM. Reason: picture woopsie :)
LOL.Reminds me of Hercules and Xena(See my thread for new pix)when they were pups.I really like the first pic were your babys watching them.
Thanks Mr. Clean, They are like kids to me. I can't get over how big Moxy is getting. It appears that she is going to outweigh Cash by a lot. I saw your new pics as well. I love how you can see thier personality in some of the pictures.
It has been a long time, but I figured I should get some new pictures up of my little buddies at home. Moxy has gotten much bigger than Cash, and she doesn't seem to be slowing down yet.
Moxy is incredibly athletic and strong. And RIDICULOUSLY FAST...She still doesn't know how big she is and often doesn't know her strength, as Cash has a hard time playing with her anymore...
Here is one of Cash sitting under the Christmas Tree...Not sure why he liked it so much but he laid there almost every day.
Moxy has just reached 1 yr old, and Cash is about a year and a half now. Moxy is right around 75lbs and Cash is a nimble 49lbs.
Last edited by falchunt; 05-04-2010 at 08:14 AM. Reason: picture woopsie
I just weighed Moxy last night, She is 82 lbs and solid as a damn rock...
So as you can read previously, Moxy turned 1 year at the end of May. So of course, she went into heat immediately afterwords. I did my best to keep Cash off of her but while I was at work yesterday, our 16 yr old let them get hooked together 3 times. She should be having puppies in about 9 weeks. So...
If you are interested in a puppy, let me know and we can exchange information.
Great looking dogs and congradulations.
Spare me the lecture Dirty Harry. If I don't find someone who wants the pups I will keep them all myself, and they will be spoiled rotten like my 2 others are right now. I don't live downtown and I won't pawn off my pets on anyone. So do everyone a favor and mind your own business unless you are interested in a pup? Thanks!
Before I get yelled at for thread necro this post is directly on point and just wanted to show off some of the offspring those pits were able to produce. 10 week old Johnny son of Cash lol
that look is, " Can I chase grandmas rott he was harassing me?" I told him no and he tucked tail and went back to the porch.
Love the pic snowman, but it is a bit large
I will have to get some new pics of Moxy up (and Cash) she has put on about another 15 or 20 lbs of muscle since the last pictures lol


text: Hi All, New to the site and have a basic maintenance question about a 1995 K1500 Suburban. I told my mother-in-law I would help get her old truck past SMOG and it came back as needing a new Charcoal Canister (which the guy wanted $280 for). I can get one at NAPA for $80. My question is where is the Charcoal/Vapor canister located? Must be fairly easy to replace as the SMOG guy only wanted around $30 in labor to replace it. Any help greatly appreciated.

text: An attention seeking kid can constitute a serious headache for the parents. Oftentimes you find such kids seeking attention in diverse ways especially through their incessant demands and actions. An attention seeking child may say "Mommy, come and see the marks I made in school today". As the mom tries to succumb, the child may also say; "Mom, where's my tea cup". The demands may go on and on. The child expects the Mom to give him or her attention all the time. This can constitute serious problems not only for the mom but also for the Dad and the entire household.

From Mangere to Auckland City - next stop, New York? If Vela Manusaute and Anapelo Polataivao get their way, the world's first Pacific musical, The Factory, could go international - but for now the founders of performing arts group Kila Kokonut Krew are concentrating on making an impact at the Auckland Arts Festival.
The Factory is one of four local theatre productions to win a place on the festival programme. There has been some comment about whether four are enough - especially as two of them have been staged in Auckland before.
Festival artistic director Carla van Zon says carefully considered choices were made based on a number of factors. These included how each piece would fit within the festival as a whole, how it would complement - and be complemented by - international theatre shows, how it might reflect Auckland's changing demographics and the stories at the heart of each production.
"It is important to have our city, and our country, strongly represented and I wanted Maori and Pacific work to form the heart of the festival," van Zon says. "The stories have to be about our place. If you look at the programme as a whole, there is a great deal of local work because we are crossing all art forms."
Theatre-makers pitched their work to the festival through an application process, with potential projects shortlisted, presented at hui and workshops and further reduced until the final four were chosen. Three more pieces are being developed for future festivals while others were of a high quality but "not right" for this festival.
Van Zon would also like to see more plays from contemporary New Zealand-Asian theatre-makers and strong Pakeha stories. "The fact is we don't see that many [Pakeha stories] coming through and we are always looking for a really good one."
She wanted work portable enough to be taken to venues around the region - I, George Nepia will move between Warkworth, Auckland City's Q Theatre and Mangere Arts Centre, while Hui will also play at Mangere Arts Centre and Q - while working with Auckland Theatre Company on a community-oriented project was a priority, as was finding a powerful Pacific piece.
The Factory, performed in Mangere in 2011, has been further developed and the story reworked for its season at Q Theatre (March 6-11). The musical, about Pacific migrants who come to New Zealand looking for a brighter future, is now set in the 1970s - the era of the dawn raids - and has a new cast and songs. The soundtrack ranges from 70s disco to soul and Pacific Roots, and performers are accompanied by a live band.
Creator Vela Manusaute, clearly thrilled by its inclusion in the festival, says it is an opportunity to work with a production team with experience specific to musical theatre, which is valuable professional development, and will benefit Pacific performing arts as a whole.
He says setting the story in the 1970s and adding new songs meant fresh demands for the cast, so the decision was made to hold large-scale open auditions and recast: "We are taking the show to another level; everyone has to be willing and able to step up."
Van Zon says a number of theatre-goers who may not have been willing to travel to South Auckland to see The Factory would have missed the chance to see a "deeply potent story" that reflects the experiences of many migrants to Auckland, so she decided to bring it into the central city as part of the festival.
Similarly, van Zon sees I, George Nepia, which first toured as part of the Rugby World Cup cultural programme, as worthy of a repeat (Mahurangi College, Warkworth, March 8; Q Theatre, March 13-18; Mangere Arts Centre, March 21-23).
Actor Jarod Rawiri plays the New Zealand rugby legend in a one-person show focused on Nepia's personal and professional story. Rawiri, a father of four, says playing Nepia has taught him so much about the man behind the sporting legend and his ability to cross cultural boundaries simply by being himself. He says resuming rehearsals has been like meeting up with an old friend, and he's thrilled to be performing in an arts festival in his home town.
"It's a privilege because we know we are at the heart of a festival where the quality of the work is of such a high standard. It's an incentive to do it and do it well, and I enjoy the fact people can learn about a great New Zealander."
A home-coming is central to Mitch Tawhi Thomas' award-winning Hui (Mangere Arts Centre, March 8; Q Theatre, March 16-23). After 20 years, four estranged brothers meet following the death of their father, but there's a twist - one of the brothers is now a sister.
Produced in association with Silo Theatre, Hui makes its debut at the festival. Inspired by a family reunion about 13 years ago, Tawhi Thomas says Hui reunites him with friends and creative collaborators Rachel House, Sean Coyle and Jennifer Lal.
That the play has been so long in the making has paid off. Even before its first staging, Hui won last year's Playmarket Adam NZ Play Award, adding to the collection of awards - which include the Bruce Mason Playwriting Award and a Chapman Tripp - Tawhi Thomas has for his earlier work.
Dominion Road Stories (above) stages an outdoor adventure in 'Chinatown'; Hui (right) invites men to take a close look at themselves.
On the factory floor
Playmarket director Marry Lynch says the characters in Hui have been absent from our stages, and the "testosterone-fuelled provocation" invites the male population to look closely at themselves.
The cast includes Stephen Butterworth, Xavier Horan, Tola Newberry and Maaka Pepene.
Auckland Theatre Company's Dominion Road Stories pays homage to one of the city's oldest neighbourhoods through four free and ticketed performances at various sites close to Potter's Park and opposite ATC's Dominion Rd headquarters.
Created under the auspices of ACT's Participate, an outreach programme which brings together professional theatre-makers and local communities, it comprises four shows which highlight various aspects of the road's lively history. They take place on March 16 and 17, with a family picnic at Potter's Park on Saturday (March 16).
At the Balmoral Bowling Club, the senior citizens' troupe ATC Marvellous Company performs the comedy caper Bowled Over by Kathryn Burnett, in which they face off against developers trying to take over their much-loved club.
In Walk Eat Talk, audiences are invited to enter Dominion Rd's "Chinatown", where the side streets, alleyways and restaurants become the stage for an outdoor adventure culminating in a shared meal.
The day opera singer Pavarotti came to town is remembered in Pav On Dom, presented with the Auckland Philharmonia Orchestra. And there is live music, sing-along arias and comedy in APO's rehearsal room.
Saturday's entertainment ends with a finale featuring musician Don McGlashan in Potter's Park. The evening, MCed by Mark Hadlow, celebrates Balmoral's history as the dancehall hub of Auckland and will feature dancer Candy Lane and a flash mob of more than 100 volunteer dancers.
ATC associate director Lynne Cardy says the project has been in the planning since the company moved from Britomart to Balmoral two years ago. Cardy says a work such as Dominion Road Stories was a "terrific opportunity" to demonstrate how a theatre company can be part of a central-city neighbourhood.

text: I'm not all that sold on Saigas, the last X39 I had buldged case bases so bad I sent it back and got my money back before it blewup in my face. If you want a AK type platform gun cheap ,they work. I've got the 308 and it's OK but like 1biggun says you can go out and get a new Savage, or many other good guns for the price of a Saiga, and it will shoot circles around it. Not as fast, but whats better 30rounds cutting air or 5 rounds cutting hair????? What really sucks about Saigas is the expense of the mags 30-40 bucks for a 8rnd plastic mag!!!! Give me a break. And not all of us want to go into a major re-build on a new gun just to smooth out the rough edges and make it function better and to have a trigger that doesn't feel like a mall ninja plastic crossbow. I'll take my 500-700 bucks to buy a Savage 110 or some thing like that, that will hold a 3/4moa group. + helps support the workers in THIS COUNTRY. Hell you can go out and get a new CZ or Weatherby for the price of a done up Saiga, and you got a REAL GUN when your done.

Ex-Cabinet chief visiting NC for immigration forum
NORTH CAROLINA - The former head of the U.S. Department of Homeland Security wants to talk about how to overhaul the nation's immigration laws with representatives of North Carolina agricultural and Hispanic communities.
Michael Chertoff is participating Tuesday in a discussion on immigration laws at the headquarters of North Carolina Farm Bureau in Raleigh.
Chertoff was homeland security department secretary during the second administration of President George W. Bush and was a lead negotiator in attempts at immigration reform in Washington in 2007. He's now a member of an immigration task force assembled by the Bipartisan Policy Center, which was founded by former U.S. senators of both major parties to promote solutions to problems through respectful dialogue.
Farm Bureau President Larry Wooten also plans to participate in the discussion.

Except for surrounding cattle stations, Betoota stands alone on a vast gibber plain. The Outback town is located 170 kilometres east of Birdsville and 227 kilometres west of Windorah. Betoota started as a Cobb and Co changing station and border town with its main income being derived from tolls and taxes. This source of revenue dried up on the establishment of the Federation.
Twice a year this ghost town comes alive with activity as locals and visitors alike arrive by plane, coach and motor vehicle to enjoy local events. On the first weekend after Easter it's a fun-packed weekend at the Gymkhana. The weekend before the Birdsville races, Betoota hosts a weekend of racing as part of the Simpson Desert Racing Carnival. This is where you'll meet 'down to earth' Australians with a wry sense of humour!
Brown's Creek is a popular local camping area near the now deserted Betoota Hotel. Be sure to visit Deon's Lookout - a memorial to one of this country's sons with peaceful views of the land he loved.

Arsène Wenger believes it would be unwise to rule out Alex Oxlade-Chamberlain for a late run into England's Euro 2012 squad.
The young winger has been sounded out as a possible 'wildcard' pick for the tournament in Ukraine and Poland next summer after a blistering start to life with Stuart Pearce's Under-21s – including a hat-trick in the latest international break.
Capello has admitted that the 18-year-old is likely to be a part of his plans in the forthcoming international friendlies and Wenger thinks a place in Poland and Ukraine next summer is possible.
"I don't rule him out," said the Arsenal manager. "That depends on his progress here. Again sometimes you are a bit too quick in England for that.
"But you cannot rule him out because he has the basic talent. In the next five, six months we will see how he adjusts to the physical intensity of the game.
"Today you cannot expect too many players to be unknown because every single big game is watched by everybody."
Theo Walcott made headlines when he was selected for Sven-Goran Eriksson's 2006 World Cup squad as a 17-year-old. But Wenger believes comparisons between him and Oxlade-Chamberlain are wide of the mark.
"It's difficult to say because they are different types of player," the Frenchman said. "Theo Walcott went at 17 years of age to the World Cup and Oxlade-Chamberlain is already 18 now. They are at different stages.
"I believe that Oxlade-Chamberlain is more in the build-up of a game and Walcott has more of a striker's mind. They are different types of players, both gifted.
"Slowly England is getting players out of the youth system that have the quality to play at a very interesting level."Copyright 2017 The Arsenal Football Club plc. Permission to use quotations from this article is granted subject to appropriate credit being given to www.arsenal.com as the source

3 alleged gang members busted in hotel assault; 2 others sought
WEST READING, Pa. - Three men are behind bars, but police said they are still looking for two more who are responsible for beating and stabbing two victims at the Candlewood Suites in West Reading.
There was a massive raid Wednesday morning on four homes in Reading.
"There were 60 to 70 law enforcement officers on the street," said Theresa Johnson, First Assistant District Attorney.
They were looking for Darkenya Markowski, Tywaun Terrell, George Albright, and Daniel Cruz.
Police said the four plus an unidentified man went to the Candlewood Suites early last Thursday morning and brutally beat and stabbed two men.
Darkenya Markowski was apprehended Wednesday morning at his home in the 1100 block of Cotton Street in Reading, said Detective Joe Brown, West Reading Police Dept, adding that two other men, George Albright and Daniel Cruz, were also arrested.
The Cotton Street raid was one of four carried out by police Wednesday morning as they sought five suspects in the case. Two men remain at large, said police, adding that all have connections with the Bloods gana. And three of the suspects are self-identified members of the Bloods.
Another man, not involved in the hotel assault, was arrested for scuffling with arresting officers, police said.
The two victims who were assaulted inside the Candlewood Suites hotel in West Reading on March 14, police said, one suffered a stab wound to his chest, a severed finger and a wound to this head. The other victim was kicked in the head and body.
"There was blood everywhere within the room," said West Reading detective Joe Brown.
Police said one of the victims made it to the hallway and other guests heard the noise.
"It was probably to the victim's benefit that did happen because that's how the police were alerted," said Brown, "Which led to the suspects fleeing from the hotel before they could inflict more serious injuries or end up killing the victims."
Police charged the four men between the ages of 19 and 21 with attempted homicide.
West Reading police said they were able to determine who was involved based on video at the hotel and video from 11th and Cotton Streets.
"At the same time Reading police received a call for a stabbing," said Brown.
Police said suspect Daniel Cruz had a stab wound to his abdomen and claimed it happened at a convenience store in Reading.
"We're able to access video very quickly to determine if what they're saying is in fact true," said Reading Captain Damond Kloc.
Police said it wasn't true. And soon both departments realized their videos had the same men. Now they need to identify one more.
"I'm sure with the public's help we're going to identify him and he will be charged the same as the other four," said Brown.
Markowski was caught in the raid, Albright turned himself in, Cruz returned to Reading hospital because of an infection and was arrested. And police are still searching for Terrell.
Those caught are being held on 1 million dollars bail. Police have not determined a motive for the attack. Police said the victims are recovering from their injuries.

^^^^ What he said
^^^^ What he said
Thanks guys. Got the knees just about done. Just need some nice darts to finish them up.
I've started assembling the blaster kit. This thing is really cool. All the Webley pieces are together and I'm just starting to work on the greeblies. Thank you to Stormrider and Darth Vorhees for hooking me up with the missing piece! Everything screws together except the hammer, I had to glue that in place.
I also just made some sling mounting hardware. $2.49 at the local hardware store for these hangers. Found them with the picture hanging stuff. Just cut off the extra bits on the side and add a new ring. They don't swivel, but I think they will work for me.
Also got my Woodman braids from Recon. With every addition it looks a little more complete!
That is a stunning ESB Fett you are making !!!!! Really nice
After losing my job a couple weeks ago putting more money into this thing is not a possibility at this time. I figured I could spruce up the chrome tube that I have instead of buying a Heiland like I planned.
A lot of work but I think it's coming out pretty nice. Still have to clean it up a little. I might just forget the Heiland since this has the MPP holes. We'll see how it looks when everything is together.
Bad script on the job story Matty, great job on the tube. What tool did you use to take out these holes?, very neat.
flash tube looks amazing captain. sorry about the job loss. i will hire you to come and finish my suit for me
Hey Matt...sucks about the job loss
Do you want a heiland flashtube? I have an extra.. its kinda a cross between the mpp and standard heiland. I'll give it to ya if ya want to try it out. If ya find what your using you like better no worries. Im just not gonna need it and its just sittin here. let me know if ya want it!
template on here and drilled all the wholes with a power drill, then shaped the ovals with a bunch of metal files. It took a while to get all the wholes even and consistent, but I think it turned out quite nicely.
Here's where I'm at with the weathering of the blaster. It's hard to get the subtle weathering to show up in pics but I think you can see a lot of it in this shot. Getting closer to the final assembly but still have the stock greeblies to work on. I want to beat up my stock but it looks so nice I don't know if I can bring myself to do it.
This suit is looking great, I hope mine looks half as good.
Matt you are quickly becoming one of the "greats" with this thread.
blaster looks amazing. still can't believe this will only be a display piece....i would go and get the groceries in this suit
Excellent build thread, love the work your doing
No wips in over a week.. I need my fix. Awesome WIP and I love the progress
Weathering looks awesome on that blaster Matt! Keep up the great work and post MOAR photos :P
Great build thread.
Who made your flight suit and how did you weather it? Your suit is looking fantastic.
agree, nice weathering on the flight suit. Excellent looking Fett.
Excellent, so far.
Thanks guys. I almost have the blaster done, just some final assembly and detail stuff to do. I'll keep you guys updated as usual.
Now I guess I should make hands so my Fett can hold this thing. I should probably get some gloves too...

Whatever you crave for amusement, you'll find it here.

PHP/MySQL Server Model: With this extension you can generate thumbnails from the image names stored in your database. Besides, it can open the original image in a popup window and display an optional image if there are errors (if image is not stored in the folder or the database field is empty, for example).
The extension window looks like this:
Images Folder: Browse to the folder where images will be stored.
Recordset/Image Field: Select the recordset and the field that stores the names. You must note that the join of the Images Folder path and the content of the image field should give a valid path.(For example: if you select the folder "../images" and the filename field in the DB returns "myimage.jpg" the code will search for the file "../images/myimage.jpg").
Width and Height: Only Width is important, because the code will generate the thumbnail using it (and height will be proportional). However, the Height value is useful for the placeholder (See image below).
Thumb Prefix: the thumbnails generated will be stored with this prefix and the thumbnail's width. For example the image "myimage.jpeg" can create a thumbnail called "thumb_200_myimage.jpg. It may sound a bit weird, but it has an explanation. Creating a thumbnail uses quite a lot of system resources, so I prefer to keep a copy with all the sizes that I will use. This way, if my thumb is 200px wide in one page and 300px in another, I can keep a copy of both of them ("thumb_200_myimage.jpg" and "thumb_300_myimage.jpg"). The next time the page is executed, it will use these files instead of creating new ones.
Add PopUp: If you check it, The users will be able to click on the thumbnail to open a popup window with the original image.
Alternate Image: if an error occurs, this image will be displayed. Common errors should be: DB field is empty, the file can't be found or the file is not a jpg file. If you don't want to show an image, just leave this field blank and nothing will be displayed in the document.
And most important of it all: If you find a bug, please let me know!!!
Download it here (Current version:1.1.0)
June 21, 2004: New in version 1.1.0:
TODO List:
-I'm thinking about adding a new feature to next release: I want to make it to delete orphaned thumbs automatically. I have some code already done and working, but I'd like to know your suggestions about it: Should it delete the files?, move them to another folder? Post your ideas as a comment below. Thank you!!
-I'll try to add an option to select thumbnail quality in thumnails.


text: Born in San Francisco and based in New York, Alexander Wang mixes West Coast ease with a grungy East Coast attitude. The designer launched his first collection in 2005 and quickly found fans among his model friends and industry bigwigs like Anna Wintour and Diane von Furstenberg (who later become his mentor) with a small collection of six unisex knits. Due to its success, an eponymous line came later in 2007, with handbags introduced the following year. Completing the trifecta, quality-crafted leather flats and heels are an easy way to work the brand's casual-yet-confident aesthetic. A sandal/pump hybrid, the "Lovisa" point-toe pump is a signature style. The tough cuffed ankle and lower heel add structure, making them a savvy choice for round-the-clock dressing. With ankle boots and brogues, look out for sports-inspired detailing like architectural, spliced-open heels and bright white hues; these are the points of difference that set them apart.
