Tay'lon; Advanced Telekinesis
Some of the less experienced Jedi were taking their time, attacking only single targets. As I closed my eyes, I began to feel and not think. That is really the secret to using a lightsaber. Thinking slows reactions, and gets you shot or an arm cut off.
As I spun through the ranks of the droids, slashing them apart, I picked up the lightsabers of my fallen brothers and sisters. I soon had six lightsabers, including my own. Using a single lightsaber is not the easiest thing to do, let alone my normal two. Controlling another four with my mind, not only attacking but also defending, is nearly impossible.
I felt the presence of the other Jedi gathering in the middle of the arena. I began moving my way there. Once I was in the circle, I deactivated all of the lightsabers. I have nearly exhausted myself with this difficult use of telekinesis.
Many Jedi have fallen. I do not know if we will survive this battle.

Owner info
Year Purchased: 2004
About the owner: Aloha! We relocated to Hawaii about 16 years ago, after retiring from lives as cattle ranchers, teacher, consultant, and human resources manager. We had visited all of the Hawaiian Islands and other tropical areas around the world, and chose the Big Island as our home. In this phase of our lives, we love to share our adopted home with others and have established two spectacular vacation rentals on both sides of the Big Island to allow this.
Why the Owner Chose Captain Cook, HI, USA:
Kealakekua Bay has probably the best snorkeling in all of Hawaii! The dolphins and other sea life share this unique place with us and our guests. Hale o Lei allows us to affordably share Kealakekua Bay with others.
The Unique Benefits at this House:
You have the enviable choices of just staying in the area and enjoying one of the most beautiful, relaxing places in the world, OR using Hale o Lei as a comfortable base to explore one of the most dynamic islands in the world.

Jeremy did the best job, you dont get bored of a tatoo you need double mirrors to even see it
I dont like dragons. I like Jeremys and Fabian's although i didnt see at first, lol!
Fernandez with Oly rings, not so much as an idea!

These tattoos (to me) are beautiful:
I'd be scared to have it done on myself, but I could appreciate them.
For now, I'll just have to continue contemplating tattooing "LUCK" or "TRUTH" in plain English lettering on some part of my body (maybe forehead?) and going to an isolated, foreign society so they can view the alphabet without understanding what they mean. Then I could further impress them by informing them it's not even my ethnic language.
All this talk of tattoos brings to mind a book I read years & years ago (darn, I wish I could remember the name), which affected me greatly. In it, the main character was a man that was sent to prison in ancient times (I think he was a slave), and while he was out from having been beaten unconscious they had a tattoo artist ink a huge colorful bright cross on the front of his chest & back (covered it entirely). This you see was supposed to be a punishment to "mark" him. So whenever the other prisoners saw this mark, they would beat him because the country was anti-Christian. Now that is what I call "bearing your belief".
Lol, now I'm going to be searching for that book until I find it. :D
I understand why skaters get Olympic tattoos, but otherwise, I hate all other tattoos. To each his own though.

Lady Gaga Confirms 2014 UK Tour
The 'Applause' star has confirmed dates for her 'artRAVE: The ARTPOP Ball' Arena Tour.
Lady Gaga has been accused of copying her hit single "Judas" from a Chicago singer/songwriter.
Rebecca Francescatti filed a lawsuit against the outlandish star, claiming she plagarised her song "Judas", which she recorded in 1999. Ms Francescatti claims that "substantial original portions" were lifted from her song.
She worked with Brian Joseph Gaynor, a member of DJ White Shadow, on the title - who also worked with Lady Gaga on the album "Born This Way". DJ White Shadow claims to have written 17 of 20 songs on "Born This Way", the lawsuit says.
Ms Francescatti is seeking profits from the sale of the record, or damages of an unspecified amount.
Gaga is currently embroiled in another lawsuit over claims she profited from charity wristbands she sold to raise funds for Japanese tsunami victims.

Weekly Wonder Woman Tally: 324
Well, we're in week two of coverage of the WONDER WOMAN #600 campaign and, what do you know? We've already crossed the midway point. As of now, we have about 324 postcards sent in from fans asking for WONDER WOMAN's numbering to be reverted to #600 at the appropriate time. Seems like the tide is turning, eh?
Feel the aftershocks from 'The Rise of the Olympian' in WONDER WOMAN #36
It's not a stretch to say writer Gail Simone and artist Aaron Lopresti's "The Rise of the Olympian" arc changed Wonder Woman's life completely, and it's not over for our favorite Amazon. In this issue, Diana finds herself fighting for her life against the man chosen by the gods to replace her -- Achilles, the Warkiller. Doesn't sound like much fun. At least for her. We've got a few pages here, though, for those us standing on the sideline and looking to be entertained. WONDER WOMAN #36 hits 9/30. [gallery link="file"]
Huh? What's the Weekly Wonder Woman Tally, you say? Well, glad you asked. Not long ago, Dan DiDio mentioned the fan debate regarding Wonder Woman's upcoming "600th" issue. Lots of people have asked Dan to revert the book to it's original numbering to commemorate the event. Far from being a pushover, Dan said that if fan response -- in the form of postcards -- was strong enough, he'd consider it. And by strong, we mean "600 postcards" strong. Get it?
Can the SECRET SIX survive a split?
War is declared on the new Devil's Island, and the Secret Six are facing off against themselves. On opposite sides and ready to die -- or kill! -- for their causes, the Six are in a tight spot. But what are they fighting over that's strong -- and brutal -- enough to take down Wonder Woman herself? Only Gail Simone and artist Nicola Scott know. But the preview pages below will give you a hint. SECRET SIX #13 hits 9/9. [gallery link="file"]
A slew of art and news from Editor Elisabeth Gehrlein
Happy Friday, DC Nation! Elisabeth Gehrlein here, DCU editor of…well, a really nice range of titles. One of the things I love about my current slate of books is how varied they are – I've got everything on my plate from JONAH HEX to TINY TITANS, with ADVENTURE COMICS and DOOM PATROL and WONDER WOMAN in between. So every day is a genre-bending journey where one minute I could be thinking "Where did those penguins get rocket packs in the first place?" and then suddenly a colorist calls with this disturbing question: "What color should I make the fragments of his shattered legs?"
Out today: WONDER WOMAN #35
It's the conclusion to the two-part "Birds of Paradise" arc, as a gaggle of super-powered cage fighters find themselves in the worst possible place to be -- Wonder Woman and Black Canary's bad side. Also, find out the final resolution between Diana and Nemesis. What more could you want? Oh, alright. Here are a few pages. WONDER WOMAN #35 hits today. [gallery link="file"]
How about some Aaron Lopresti WONDER WOMAN art?
Who's that on the cover of SECRET SIX #16?
We've had a lot of fun recently showing off the amazing cover work of SECRET SIX cover artist Daniel Lu Visi, so why stop? You've all seen his take on Bane and Deadshot, so how about his interpretation of Black Alice, one of writer Gail Simone's favorite new characters? Who's hand is that clawing up from the ground? You can figure it out.
Deadshot anyone?
You saw artist Daniel LuVisi's amazing Bane cover not too long ago, but why stop there? Here's the cover to SECRET SIX #15.

Revelry Kitchen Is Moving Into Former Home of Indulge French Bistro
Reverie will be joining the lineup on West 38th Avenue.
Seven years ago chef William Wahl and his wife, Stephanie, opened Indulge French Bistro, at 4140 West 38th Avenue. Just a few blocks away Tennyson Street has evolved into a hot dining destination, but Indulge always seemed a little too ambitious for the area, and the restaurant finally closed three months ago. Now another eatery is moving into the space: Revelry Kitchen. But rather than attempt another ambitious fine-dining restaurant at this address, Revelry will rely on a formula that's proved tried-and-true for this neighborhood: It will be a breakfast, brunch and lunch spot.

Located on Harris Avenue between La Grange Road and Ashland Avenue, the carnival will also offer a beer tent and food area with fare from local food businesses and traditional carnival treats.

Chapter 10
The smoke and heat has polluted the air by the time I am awake. My body immediently begins to sweat. Thankfully, my shirt is still soaked with water. I use the garnment to cover my mouth and nose.
I fall on my back and I have to crawl backwards to get away from the lapping flames. I watch as the deadly circle of flames closes the gap where my body would have been. I shudder at the thought if I wouldn't have woken up in time. But I haven't escaped quite yet.
I have never jumped and dodged so much in my life. Gigantic flames sprout from the tiniest of cracks in the ground, sending me flying backwards.
I run and run, but it never seems to end. I even have the slightest ideaa that I might be running in circles.
Everytime I get close to a crack, it will glow bright red and a second later it will erupt in flames. Sometimes I would plummit backwards from the impact of the blow, but I was smart enough to form a strategy. Run forward, wait for the glow, then run back before the flames can catch me. It was like there are motion sensers in the ground and they will activate from the slightest touch from my foot.
A few minutes after I wake, I fall into a coughing attack. I stumble backwards, over taken by the power of my wheezes. Air enteres my lungs in swollen breaths. On and on this fit goes and I long for water.
When the wheezing doesn't stop, I start to wonder if I will suffocate to death. I nearly died from frostbite, heat exhaustion, and drowning. Looking back, suffocating doesn't seem like such a bad way to die.
Tears to fall as my coughing continues. My vision is blurred so I can't see when a tongue of fire almost takes my life.
A cough sends me tumbling forward, allowing me to dodge the flame by a couple of inches. If it wasn't for that wheeze, I would have been toast. Literally.
Thankfully, my coughing stops there. I wipe my eyes and swallow continuously to try to regain some of the moisture in my throat. But this only seems to make the flames lick higher. Soon I can't see the sky, thanks to a combination of heavy smoke and orange flames. I figure that crawlling in any direction would only send me to certain death (or in my case, a horrid nightmare) so I stay stationary.
A piece of hair has fallen out of my hair bun (weirdly I kept the same hairstyle as in my dream) but when I extended my elbow out to fix it, my arm gets to close to the fire surrounding my poor, trembling body. It burns the whole outer part of my arm. As a result, I scream out in pain. Tears start to reappear in my eyes and the bright red patch on my arm is blurred.
The fire has surrounded me on all sides now, leaving now space for comfort. One of the tongues lashes at me, scarring my face. I scream another agonizing scream that is probably giving the person who made these fires a good laugh. I am glad I can't see my lates wound. It would give me nightmares for weeks to come.

ANOTHER abysmal Newspoll — with the ALP ahead of the Coalition, this time by an increased 53% to 47% margin — is probably an accurate reflection of the public mood, and carries messages for both sides of Australian politics: people have turned off PM Malcolm Turnbull altogether, whilst Labor remains lumbered with an unelectable and boorish oaf at its helm. Meanwhile, minor parties continue to prosper, which favours the ALP, if only by default.
10 down, 20 to go…
Apologies to readers for the rather abrupt (and unintended) hiatus over the past fortnight; the "something" that I alluded to that popped up last time we discussed a Newspoll has in fact consumed a goodly portion of my time since that point, but with a solution now in hand with which to deal with it, here we are again (although there is something else that will interrupt me during the coming couple of weeks, albeit not quite so thoroughly as this has done).
In any case — as I forecast — the headline comment today, in light of the latest Newspoll published in The Australian, is that Malcolm Turnbull is now fully one-third the way toward replicating the benchmark he used to justify knifing predecessor Tony Abbott through the shoulder blades. Not for the first time, it warrants the observation that only a foolish politician indeed makes public pronouncements on the longevity of political leadership through the prism of opinion polls, and Turnbull only has himself to blame if the sound of sharpening scabbards can be heard emanating from some quarters within his party.
And as I suspected, this poll has shown the last one was, indeed, a rogue result; today's 53-47 finding in Labor's favour doesn't fully restore the ALP's 55-45 lead from a month ago, but it does move the political conversation back in that direction: and it does broadly cross-validate a finding recorded in the ALP's favour during the week by Essential Research, which itself saw Labor give up a point to arrive at a 54-46 assessment.
To say the average of these two polls — a 53.5-46.5 lead to Labor, or a swing of 3.9% since the election last July — is pretty much on the money illustrates just how far from favour the Coalition has fallen in less than four years; these findings amount to a 7% swing to Labor after preferences since the thumping win posted by Tony Abbott in September 2013, and would net the ALP an extra 19 seats (for a total of 88) and government in a canter based on the July results if replicated at another election.
What should deeply disturb Coalition "strategists" is the fact that using the Turnbull camp's yardstick of progress as a benchmark, the past fortnight has been an unmitigated triumph for the Prime Minister, with a reasonable slice of his corporate tax cuts being legislated, along with piecemeal changes to the way the Human Rights Commission is to process complaints made under S18c of the Racial Discrimination Act, and in the afterglow of his warmly received plan to expand the Snowy Mountains Scheme as a downpayment on tackling energy affordability.
A more objective assessment of the period would also note that despite scoring sporadic hits on opposition "leader" Bill Shorten, the government has been seen to lose the debate (for want of a better word) on changes to penalty rates; has proven singularly incapable of enacting structural (and sorely needed) changes to S18c; has had its company tax plan gutted, despite the partial success it booked; and is showing every sign of once again approaching a critical federal budget in five weeks' time with no tilling of the public soils being undertaken in preparation, and no over-arching theme or narrative to bind its economic message together.
In other words, this Newspoll — like the nine before it — is something the Prime Minister's Office can scarcely argue comes as much of a shock.
As is so often the case with these polls, today's Newspoll charts incremental movements: on the question of a primary vote the Coalition is down a point, and the ALP up a point, to sit level-pegging at 36%.
On the question of who the "preferred PM" might be, Turnbull is down two points to 41%, and Shorten up three to 32%: thus maintaining for now the clear but not decisive lead that seems the only "bright" spot in survey findings for Malcolm — such as it is.
And where voter satisfaction with personal performance is concerned, Turnbull's 30% figure is unchanged this time, but 59% (+2%) disapprove; by contrast — and reflecting the rather damning indictment upon Turnbull that Bill Shorten should be more popular than any other figure in Australian politics — 32% (+3%) approve of the way he is doing his job, whilst 54% (-3%) do not.
There are those (usually associated with the incumbent party and/or leader, whoever it happens to be at any given time) who argue that such modest movements are within the margin of sampling error, and that they are statistically insignificant.
Yet as we have said many times now, the trend against Turnbull — ever since Federal Police raided the home of former minister Mal Brough, after he was unwisely and rashly restored to Cabinet for supporting Malcolm in the leadership ballot against Abbott — has been so large in overall scope, and almost uninterrupted in its duration over the past 16 months, that statistical insignificance went out the window well over a year ago.
The messages from this poll — like most others doing the rounds — are fairly simple, and very clear.
One, it doesn't really matter what Malcolm Turnbull does: rightly or wrongly, "fairly" or otherwise, the vast majority of Australians don't like him, are fed up with him, and have stopped listening to what he says and does altogether: it's a dangerous piece of political real estate to occupy, and the fact a few genuinely praiseworthy achievements haven't mattered one jot in public opinion sampling is a potent signpost to the fact Turnbull is (as we have said in this column repeatedly) finished.
Two, whilst these results might appear encouraging for Labor, the hard reality is that people hate its "leader" almost as heartily as they're sick to the stomach with Turnbull: and a change in the ALP leadership (and especially to a Plibersek/Bowen team as leader and deputy) might just be all it takes to lock Labor's two-party lead in for at least long enough to turn a likely election victory into a certainty.
Three (and this is an old story), until the Coalition finally recruits some smarts in the areas of political strategy and tactics, mass communication and parliamentary management — and backs them with a slate of sober, mainstream conservative policies, not the lefty social whims of its leader and/or panicked pandering to the ruthlessly advancing monster that is the Left — it won't even matter if the Liberal Party tosses Malcolm overboard. It won't matter who the replacement is. It won't matter how long there is until an election, and it won't matter how "brilliant" the latest
mediocre exercise in pea and thimble tricks federal budget is purported to be. Right now, opposition beckons the Coalition almost irresistibly. Like an adolescent determined to be entrusted with a dirty secret at all costs, the Coalition gives every appearance of being willingly drawn further and further toward the cliff.
And just to put the tin hat on it all, the share of the vote identified by Newspoll as belonging to minor parties and "Others" continues to hover near 30%, and whilst some Turnbull figures (who shall remain nameless) like to suggest privately that these are "parked" Coalition votes that will "come home" at election time, most of them didn't last July — and even more of them won't next time either, at an election that is now at most less than two years away from being called.
I'd never vote for a party led by a pinko like Tanya Plibersek, and I think Chris Bowen is a charlatan and an intellectual fraud who'd have very little to say if someone didn't script his lines for him and wind up his power pack every morning so he could deliver them.
But out in Voterland, where people don't think twice about politics and where visual impressions increasingly count for more nowadays than anything requiring serious thought anyway, this ticket, properly handled, could yield the ALP great electoral dividends, and anyone who thinks Labor lacks the capacity to capitalise on such a vapid but electorally potent ticket should reflect upon how close Bill Shorten went toward becoming Prime Minister nine months ago…and he's a lying, fork-tongued soothsayer whose past handiwork as a union hack and ministerial saboteur mark him out as someone to be avoided at literally any cost.
I know I sound like a broken record when I say, not for the first time, that this poll screams at the Liberals to knuckle under and get their shit together: if Labor moves on Shorten first, it'll all be over. It'll be too late. Perhaps it already is.
And in two weeks' time, provided Newspoll isn't delayed, it'll be a case of "11 down, 19 to go." Bet tens on it. Malcolm will never win another election. He almost lost the last one. The time to fix things is now. The need is becoming more urgent with every day that passes.
The alternative is Tanya Plibersek as Prime Minister, and for all his faults, that'll make Malcolm and his social ideas look, improbably enough, positively saintly. But by then of course, it really will be too late for the Liberals to do anything more than count the cost of doing nothing now.

Mexico, Indonesia, Nigeria, and Turkey: the fast-growing economies of these countries considered as a group
'The Financial Times estimated that the seven largest emerging economies can hypothetically be called a new G7: four BRICS members – Brazil, Russia, India and China and three countries of the so-called MINT – Mexico, Indonesia and Turkey, will have a combined GDP of $37.8 trillion in 2014 … However, the long established G7 group of industrialized nations: Canada, France, Germany, Italy, Japan, the UK and the US are expected to have an output of $34.5 trillion.'RT 9th October 2014
Up until recently, hearing the word mint would most likely give us the choice of two mental connections – one a strong smelling plant with small green leaves, and the other the process or place in which money is made. Mint has always cropped up in various guises, from the breath-freshening sweets you pop in your mouth to an alternative to pristine, perfect etc (in mint condition) or large amounts of money (make a mint), but all such uses can trace their way back to these two fundamental ideas. However in 2014 the string of letters m-i-n-t branched out into the world of acronyms, representing a new concept which is in no way edible, but has everything to do with money.
economic forecasters predict that the MINTs have the potential to join the top 10 largest economies
in the world
MINT, often used in the phrase the MINT countries, is an acronym of Mexico, Indonesia, Nigeria and Turkey, and is used in financial spheres to characterize these countries as an economic group with growing influence. Why these four countries in particular? The answer seems to lie, not in obvious economic boosters like technology or natural resources, but demographics. As well as having a large population, all these countries are 'younger' than many of their competitors. This means that they're likely to see a significant rise in the number of people eligible to work relative to those not working – a situation which is the envy of many developed nations or countries which hitherto have been economic powerhouses, such as China and Russia. Another key advantage of three of the MINT countries is their geographical location. Turkey is both European and Asian, Indonesia is at the heart of South-East Asia and has connections with China, and Mexico is nestled between the USA and the rest of Latin America.
Though it may take some years, possibly as many as 30, economic forecasters predict that the MINTs have the potential to join the top 10 largest economies in the world. They also form part of what in economic circles is sometimes referred to as the next eleven (or N-11, as opposed to the G7 (group of seven) wealthiest countries – Canada, France, Germany, Italy, Japan, UK and USA. The next eleven, which also includes Bangladesh, Egypt, Iran, Pakistan, the Philippines, South Korea and Vietnam, are a group of countries identified by analysts as in a situation of investment, stability and industrial growth which gives them the potential to become some of the world's largest economies in the 21st century.
The acronym MINT was popularized by Jim O' Neill, a British economist best known for coining its predecessor, the term BRIC. First used in 2001, BRIC is a grouping acronym used in economics to refer to the countries of Brazil, Russia, India and China, who were previously considered to be at a similar, influential stage of economic development. The acronym quickly became synonymous with the idea of a shift in global economic power away from developed countries and towards the developing world.
Following BRIC's pattern of usage, MINT also occurs as a countable noun as a way of referring to these countries as individual members of the group, i.e. the MINTs.

Sometimes, we can get by with face wash alone. Other days—like when we go all out with a smoky eye and bold, long-lasting lip color—call for a dedicated makeup remover. This gentle, oil-based formula removes shadow, liner, and mascara without breaking a sweat. Plus, it's fragrance-free, paraben-free, and hypoallergenic—which means you don't have to worry about redness or irritation.
I didn't like this remover by MAKE at all. It didn't remove mascara efficiently and it stings! Major eye irritation and not very friendly for contact lens users. I find this to be a problem with all oil-based removers and many dual phase removers, even oil-free. If you have similar problems I recommend a "single phase" remover for eye make up.1

The Land Before Time Parent Review
Movie Review
Remember when you were a kid and you had that favorite childhood movie? It was the one you could watch over and over again and never get tired of. You knew all the lines, you'd memorized all the jokes, and no matter how much your parents pleaded, you couldn't seem to stop quoting it. For me, The Land Before Time was that film. It was with great nostalgia that I dusted off my old VHS copy. Watching it again was like being reacquainted with an old friend, and I even remembered the words to the song in the closing credits.
NEW: Listen to our Parent Previews Podcast and take control of media and technology in your family!
If my attachment sounds a bit obsessive, I'll have you know I'm not alone. The Land Before Time was so successful in its 1988 debut that it spawned over a dozen sequels (I counted), and even a short-lived television series. The production was definitely a good investment for director Don Bluth and a host of producers (including Steven Spielberg and George Lucas) who worked on the franchise over the years.
So what's so great about this animation anyway? I'll admit, viewing it as an adult, some of the glitter has rubbed off. The tale follows a young, plant-eating dinosaur named Littlefoot (voice of Gabriel Damon.) Raised under the protective care of his mother (voice of Helen Shaver), Littlefoot is told stories of "The Great Valley", a place more idyllic than their current surroundings, where his small family can be reunited with others of their kind. Even with signs of the approaching drought, the situation seems manageable until a sudden attack by a vicious carnivore leaves Littlefoot's mom fatally wounded. In her last moments, she gives her son some final instructions and sends him on a quest to find the legendary land alone. But not quite alone. It isn't long before the solitary orphan is joined by a variety of other youngsters who look to him as a leader as they search for their own families.
The journey includes a whole range of prehistoric hazards like earthquakes, volcanoes, tar pits and fearsome reptiles. Foremost among them is the terrible tyrannosaurus who dispatched Littlefoot's parent and seems intent on hunting down the young hero himself. Consequently, the characters are in nearly constant peril. To make matters worse, they have a hard time getting along and tension within the group results in name-calling, arguing, and even some physical confrontations.
Of course, all differences are eventually resolved and the story ends with the disparate dinos learning the value of teamwork and friendship. Unfortunately, the message is weakened by heavy-handed narration and a childish vocabulary, which replaces the names of various species with titles like Longneck and Threehorn. To be fair, Saurolophus and Pteranodon don't really roll off the tongue, but it's a bit of an awkward fit to have the serious sounding script (lives are at stake here!) being told in dumbed down language. It's also a little preachy, even for a kid's movie.
So why was it my favorite? As I watched the plot unfold yet again, I realized that much of the magic for me was in the music. Perhaps it's just sentimental attachment, but the haunting melody as Littlefoot's mother says her goodbyes still brings a tear to my eye and is a credit to veteran composer James Horner. His score added life and emotion to the characters. It gave the fictional world a sense of wonder that it still hasn't lost to this day.
So despite the mediocre writing, the mystery of a long ago time populated with fantastic creatures of the past proves a sure way to capture a child's imagination. And strangely, that side of me hasn't really changed much. I still feel a fairytale sense of anticipation as I hear the narrator say: "Once upon this same earth, beneath this same sun, in the time of the dinosaurs…"Directed by Don Bluth. Starring Pat Hingle, Gabriel Damon, Judith Barsi. Running time: 69 minutes. Theatrical release November 18, 1988. Updated October 13, 2015

|Case insensitive indexed search possible?
|Thu, 01 Nov 2007 22:52:41 GMT
Hi all, Does anyone know if there is a way to do a case insensitive indexed search? I know in the past this wasn't possible, but, I'm wondering if this might not be fixed in the version that was recently released. Note, I know you can do a LOWER() to do it. However, I don't want to do that because I don't want it to do a table scan. Ideally, it would be possible to make all text searches case insensitive with a single setting. Jon

(M) The hotel is three stories high but looks slightly taller due to the design of adding large windows in the front. The color outside is and off-white or beige color but the inside is very vibrant with almost contrasting colors. Behind the hotel is a large pool area that leads off into the ocean.
(M) Although the hotel is taking a colorful and modern route, they also try to include a tropical and Caribbean atmosphere by adding 'tiki' themed objects and furniture.
(M) Video Idea: Several shots of the "band" playing. Will have to look up replacements for the drum set in the game.
(M) Video Idea: "Child" (was to be comically Justin Bieber but I feel that may be pushing it) being beaten by soldiers. Then show child having his picture taken in jail with 'No Tolerance' flashing on the screen.
(M) Video Idea: Some shots of the shoreline that has white sand and mud mixed into it. This is followed by scenes of a spa (massage, heated bath, etc.) before showing a tribal member go into a store to by the 'sacred' mud.
(M) Video Idea: Some shots of the large tank aquarium (eel, starfish, puffer fish, etc.). Need to look into this further.
(M) Video Idea: The restaurant will be outside by the pool and at night. It will have all tourists sitting and eating. Some close-ups on cooking and dishes.
(M) Video Idea: Several still shots of different rooms (all small and tacky in appearance) during the daylight. By night, focus on one room with a bed by the window. Have flashing lights and party music playing while sim is trying to sleep.
Typing up the script
Creating and posting the mind map
Creating the video for presentation
(M) Video Idea: Show the shoreline once more with seaweed, driftwood, and garbage. Sims are digging for shells. One finds a shell (or nothing) while the other gets pinched by a crab.

A Shellac manicure is new manicure treatment promises smudge-proof nail color that lasts for weeks without chipping. Some call it a manicure miracle, but Shellac is not for everyone. The special formula, called Shellac, brushes on just like regular nail polish. Nails are prepped in the same manner as a basic manicure. But the polish stays on, chip-free, for weeks. Customers only need to change polish when new growth starts showing, and that's typically after about 14 days.
What is there to think?
Advantages :
– Shellac dries quickly, and the entire treatment can take as little as 20 minutes.
– This manicure lasts, chip free, for 2 weeks. NOTHING makes this stuff chip.
– It can peel if your manicurist does a crappy job around the edges of your nails. This product is thick so if there is a slight overlay onto the skin or chip around the edges of the nail, it will peel up.
Disadvantages :
– Shellac nail colors can only be applied in licensed salons, since there is a process involved in applying the color, sealing it and then "baking" the sealant under a special UV light to harden it.
– The removal process can be time consuming. You'll have to soak your nails in pure acetone to soften the polish and make it easier to remove.
There are many nail polish brands that provides shellac nail polishes and shellac nail polish kits like:
– Cristina
– Gelish
– Crislish
Ok so.. How much?
The shellac nail polish price is ranged from $20 to $25 per bottle ($2 to $6 on DHgate). Meanwhile, the shellac nail polish kit price is ranged from $95 to $200. Literally, this type of manicure can be done at home. For some people, they prefer to go to the nail salon to do the shellac manicure, because we will need to seek professional help when applying the nail polish and its removal.
What do I need?
– Nail polishes of any color
– Base coat and top coat
– A UV nail gel dryer
