The Oxford Handbooks series is a major new initiative in academic publishing. Each volume offers an authoritative and up-to-date survey of original research in a particular subject area. Specially commissioned essays from leading figures in the discipline give critical examinations of the progress and direction of debates. Oxford Handbooks provide scholars and graduate students with compelling new perspectives upon a wide range of subjects in the humanities and social sciences.
Ernie Lepore and Barry Smith present the definitive reference work for this diverse and fertile field of philosophy. A superb international team contribute more than forty brand-new essays covering topics from the nature of language to meaning, truth, and reference, and the interfaces of philosophy of language with linguistics, psychology, logic, epistemology, and metaphysics. It will be an essential resource for anyone working in the central areas of philosophy, for linguists interested in syntax, semantics, and pragmatics, and for psychologists and cognitive scientists working on language.

The Oxford Handbook of Philosophy of Language is a wonderful find for the student linguist. Used as an encyclopedia for reference material instead of a ¿handbook¿ might prove more useful and realistic. For practical concerns, a handbook consisting of 1,000+ pages is better approached in parts rather than as a whole text. However, the sum, or this compilation, is certainly a valuable asset to any scholar of linguistic or language philosophy. I only wish the index was separated into subject and name.

text: I've recently made an early holiday gift for myself – Samsung Series 7 Tablet. It looks great, with the excellent LED screen, good performance and I love it. Since I installed Windows 8 Preview bits on it, I couldn't pass an opportunity to learn the new platform. In order to do this I've decided to port my FeedPoint Windows Phone 7 app to the Windows 8 Metro. I'd assumed that been a Windows Phone developer, a lot of programming paradigms should be really familiar for me when developing Win 8 Metro apps (XAML, tiles, notifications, etc…) and learning curve shouldn't be that steep. So far I can say that my assumptions are correct. The app has been coming along pretty nicely. I am still working out the UX, but here're the screenshots so far:

Tsolen: Forgotten Immortal.
The rather bad bumpy ride on the buse ended and I ran out of it like it was evil. Nextime I'm speed traveling. I think to myself. As I grab my large hiking bag from the belly of the bus. By speed traveling I mean running and jumping at highspeed through the terrain. Unhuman strength was another gift given to an immortal , and I quite enjoyed but I could hardly show it off because the modern dayed people would freak and think I some sorta god, or worse put me in a lab. So most of the time I practiced it in the dead of night.
Once I had got everything set I took one deep breath of the air of this town and noticed many things. Lots of zodiacs where here , and the books. Well thats why I came here trouble is brewing a trouble that I haven't met in a while. It reminded me of the times when many of the immortals where still here. Yeah they left when the gods offered us a life on the other side. I refused to leave so I was buried by the sands of time forgotten probably by the Zodiac childern and humans.
I took off to a hotel and paid cash for the next few nights , after that I began my own little investigation on the town to see where everything was taking place.

text: About CytomegalovirusCMV is a member of the herpes virus group, which includes the viruses that cause chicken pox, mononucleosis, herpes labialis (cold sores), and herpes genitalis (genital herpes). Like other herpesviruses, CMV has the ability to remain dormant in the body for long periods of time. Human CMV infection rates average between 50 percent and 85 percent of adults in the U.S. by 40 years of age, but in healthy adults causes little to no apparent illness. However, in immunocompromised individuals including cancer patients, HIV patients, and transplant patients, and in children born with primary CMV infection, CMV can lead to serious disease or death. Patients who are immunosuppressed following hematopoietic stem cell (bone marrow) or solid organ transplantation are at high risk of CMV infection. In these patients, CMV can lead to severe conditions such as pneumonitis or hepatitis, or to complications such as acute or chronic rejection of a transplanted organ. While currently available systemic anti-CMV agents are effective against the virus, their use is limited by toxicities, most notably bone marrow suppression and renal impairment. About ViroPharma Incorporated ViroPharma Incorporated is an international biopharmaceutical company committed to developing and commercializing novel solutions for physician specialists to address unmet medical needs of patients living with diseases that have few, if any, clinical therapeutic options, including C1 esterase inhibitor deficiency, treatment of seizures in children and adolescents, adrenal insufficiency, and C. difficile infection (CDI). Our goal is to provide rewarding careers to employees, to create new standards of care in the way serious diseases are treated, and to build international partnerships with the patients, advocates, and healthcare professionals we serve. ViroPharma routinely posts information, including press releases, which may be important to investors in the investor relations and media sections of our company's website, http://www.viropharma.com/.

Forward-looking statements in this press release include statements regarding potential therapeutic indication and use of maribavir and regarding maribavir's potential to address unmet medical needs. The development and commercialization of pharmaceutical products is subject to risks and uncertainties. The clinical data included in this press release is preliminary and the study is ongoing.

A description of risks and uncertainties can be found in ViroPharma's Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2012, and 10-Q for the quarter ended March 31, 2013 filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission.

The location is great and the cottage is in a great condition. It is just a short walk to the city of Dornoch where you find all that you need for your daily needs. The rooms were spacious enough and the equipment very new.
Would book it again if i go back to the northern Highlands.
Has to be the best holiday cottage in the north of Scotland.
Beatiful clean condition.
Everything works.
Really has to be seen to appreciate how good this cottage is.
Worth 6 stars in any guide book
Excellent ,very easy to find good access from main A9 ,quiet ,good views.never been that far North before,it never got dark, lots of wildlife seals etc nearby
As a family of four we had a wonderful stay in good clean accommodation with all the necessary requirements. Well fitted out and comfortable. Host was extremely friendly and helpful. Would recommend highly to anyone
Turn off the A9 onto the A949 toward Dornoch. Continue through Canmore and as you leave you will see Drumdiven Annex is the brown stone built house on your right. If you pass Dornoch Academy School on your left you have gone 200 metres too far.

For the second time, TRANOÏ collaborates with the brillant photograph Julien Boudet known as Bleu Mode, for the Autumn/Winter 2017-18 edition of TRANOÏ Paris: Men's Women's Pre-collections & Parfums.
Julien Boudet, who has been documenting the evolution of fashion since 2013, captures what he call the Decisive Fashion Moment, inspired by minimalist and surrealist movements and paying close attention to detail.
Growing up in Sète, in the south of France, surrounded by the Mediterranean, Bleu Mode has always had an affinity with the colour blue. To Julien, fashion is the sky and photography is the sea. Although they are separate elements, the power that the two create becomes utterly sublime.
Comparable to the colour blue, Bleu Mode represents inspiration, innovation and perspective in the field of fashion photography.

Your Plan:
For plans over $4,000, please contact us directly to discuss the benefits of an Enterprise plan.
Transaction Fees
You pay $0.03 per successful transaction, unless the gateway is a Spreedly partner. We use the icon next to Spreedly Partner Gateways to let you know there are no transaction fees for using these payment gateways.
Storing Cards
Storing cards is optional. If you do, you will be charged $100 for every 5000 cards stored. You have full control via the API on when and how you add or redact cards to your Spreedly payment vault.
Q: We plan to store 15,000 credit cards, do 10,000 transactions per month and have 25 different merchant accounts in use at three payment gateways; Stripe, AuthNet and First Data. What would our monthly bill be?
A: You would pay $300 per month to store up to 15,000 credit cards. $100 for two Partner Gateways and $100 for one non-partner for a total of $500 per month. You would pay no transaction fee for any Stripe or AuthNet transactions as they are Partner Gateways. You would pay $0.03 per First Data transaction. Transaction fees are calculated monthly in arrears while gateway and payment vault fees are paid monthly in advance. We do not track the number of actual merchant accounts for billing purposes.
Can I charge a stored card against more than one payment gateway?
Yes. That's a central part of our value proposition; we give you the ability to reuse stored credit cards against more than one merchant account or gateway.
We're an early stage startup that wants to support multiple payment gateway out of the gate. Can you help?
Using our Spreedly Partner Gateways is an economical way to offer some of the most popular choices for platforms and marketplaces.
Do I have to pay gateway/merchant accounts fees as well?
Yes, Spreedly's fees are independent of and separate from payment gateway/payment service provider/merchant account fees.
Are you billing me based on the number of payment gateways I use or the number of merchant accounts?
We bill you based on gateway types (e.g. Stripe, AuthorizeNet, and Sage) with no limit on the number of distinct merchant accounts that you can support using those payment gateway types.
Are there transaction fees as well?
There are no transaction fees for a Spreedly Partner Gateways. There is a 3 cent per transaction fee for Standard gateways and for Receivers/PMD.
Does Spreedly charge me for a Test payment gateway?
No. You can use our Test gateway and do test transactions against test cards for free. They never count.
Will Spreedly return my credit card data to me if I leave?
Yes. We will do one export, free of charge, to a PCI certified location for you. We strive to complete the request within 1 week of receiving it.
What happens if my usage exceeds the plan that I am currently on?
Your service will not be interrupted. We will automatically update you to the appropriate plan for your usage.
How are payment method receivers counted?
For billing purposes we treat payment method receivers the same as payment gateway types. Each production receiver_type is counted as a gateway type.
Do I have to store cards?
No. In fact, you have to specify if you want a payment method stored. Otherwise we do not store the payment method.
Is Spreedly PCI compliant?
Yes. Visit our PCI Compliance page to learn more.
Still have questions?

Skeletal Shore
They used to be human. They were parcels of flesh and time; that tick-tock of blood, that soul-ridden skin, walking and talking, eating, working, sleeping. They wore tailor-made suits, jeans, shorts and flip-flops. They wore wax in their hair, brushed their teeth, sprayed perfumes and flirted audaciously with each other. They would kiss, hug and make love. Now, they hunted.
That haunt of sound and scent surrounded us now. Those deceptively beautiful eyes dancing; a fan of peacock feathers waving seductively in the shadows. It was an easy mistake to make.
"Where are we?" the soul filled newcomer blinked. I shot him a look - quiet.
He shuffled uselessly through the dirt, as I watched the shadows gather, knotting and coming apart, flooding light and separating into darker pits. The creak of their limbs and gears, unoiled mechanics, fluid soulflesh - the form of soul, still soft and malleable before thirst stiffened and cracked the skin. I could swear I saw one, all phantomlike, with a seraphim set of swan's wings. Not thrust to the back as expected but to one side of their face - all half mouthed and cylopsical.
Even if we made the shore they might surround us, pin us down and take us out in the open ground. Their wheellegs and engineheads made them faster than us. From the distance there were the ironically inhuman screams of those as they felt their souls ripped from them, their own nails dug in their own back, wrapped around their own spine as they watched themselves pulled from their own bodies.
Hood up I hit the floor, Hunter's distracted by that ocean air; soul atoms on particles of wind. My cloak pulled over my charge's head. He tumbled reluctantly and clumsily. I peered out from beneath the thick leathered hood. They had lost us, that step for wheel for crutch for stump they had matched our pace with was lost, they had stepped too far and somehow out of our soulspace, latching onto another unfortunate victim.
I waited as long as I dared. At my side, my new travelling partner fidgeted. I nudged him to stop.
An hour must have passed, our faces laid flat down in the dirt.
Cautiously I peered from under the leather again, the world was lighter, less crammed with that alluvion of shadows. We had reached that bony, shard ridden shore. Skulls, rib bones, claws of fingers scratching at the sea, yes we'd made it out to the Skeletal shore.

VW Dealers Ordered to Stop Selling Certain Models
Volkswagen has requested its dealerships to stop selling four vehicles starting immediately.
The 2014 Volkswagen Jetta, Passat, Beetle and Beetle Convertible have been issued a mandatory stop-sale order for a transmission oil cooler leak issue. The affected vehicles are all powered by a 1.8-liter turbocharged engine mated to an automatic transmission. The German automaker has asked its dealers to not sell, lease or dealer-trade any of the vehicles and if a dealer is using the vehicle as a demo, it should stop immediately.
SEE ALSO: 2015 Volkswagen Jetta to Bow at New York Auto Show
An inspection and repair procedure is being formulated and the required parts for a fix will be available within the next week. It is unclear whether a recall will be issued, but it is likely.

Minka & the fruit man
Posted by Elliot James on Mar 17, 2017 in Hardcore XXX, New at Scoreland
Today's action-packed Minka scene reminded me of a SCORE magazine "Boob Beat" story I did in 2005. There was an Italian sexologist named Piero Lorenzoni who compared fruits to a woman's breasts and personality. Okay, his theory may have been a little bananas, but that's what they said about Newton.
Senor Lorenzoni broke it down like this:
A women with breasts like melons may look maternal but isn't. Said Lorenzoni, "She likes eating and wants to be spoiled and admired. But seldom likes sex."
Women with lemon-shaped breasts: "These women are full of life and can laugh at themselves."
Pineapples: "Whoever wins their heart will not lose it quickly."
Grapefruits: "This woman may look erotic but in reality is bashful and homely. She spoils her partner but prefers tenderness over sex."
Oranges: "While she is self-confident and knows her goals, she has little interest in sex. She likes conversation."
Cherries: "Make great partners and are moderately interested in sex."
Pears: "She can be very religious but is known to have affairs."
In a boob science experiment, Jim compares fruit to Minka's mega-boobs. Jim holds up an orange to Minka's tits. Then some melons. No comparison. Only watermelons would work, and he didn't bring any. Senor Lorenzoni probably never saw Minka's pictures during his research. He might have abandoned his project. Minka's beyond cataloging anyway.
Minka's famous protruding nipples hypnotize Jim. That's why Minka's nickname is "Nipple #1." I can't think of any fruit that compares to those always-erect pointers.
Minka wants to see his banana. Strictly for research purposes. Turnabout is fair play.

I normally don't do this but I'm left without options at this point.
I ordered a supermoto kit from Motostrano on Jan 8,2016. This kit contained Warp 9 spoked wheels 17x3.5/17x5, fender, floating rotor, tires, chain and sprockets. I paid via paypal and the invoice totalled $1727.22.
On Jan 21,2016 Warp 9 came out with their forged wheels so I asked Motostrano if they could upgrade my kit from the spoked wheels to forged. I was told I could do that and my delivery would be March 2016. I agreed and sent another paypal payment for and additional $769.00.
On Feb 26,2016 I was told the wheels would be ready on March 8,2016. The wheels were not ready on that date and I was told they were pushed back until the end of April. I contacted Motostrano on April 21,2016 and I was told they were still not ready. At that point I opted to go back to spoked wheels because I didn't want to lose a season of riding.
My order was changed back to spoked wheels and I received everything on May 12,2016.
I checked my paypal account on June 14,2016 and noticed that my invoice for the upgraded wheels was not credited back so I requested a refund on that invoice via email. I was told "I will check into that for you"
No response for 2 months so I again requested the refund on Aug 9,2016 via email. No response again.
Sept 15,2016 I again requested a refund and the answer I received was "I have just explained the issue to clear up any confusion in regards to the crediting the difference back." I honestly don't know what that means but again nothing happened. No refund.
Oct 4,2016 I called about the issue and was told it was being looked after.
Oct 21,2016 I again requested a refund via email. The response I received was "Have you seen a credit yet? I do not have access to Paypal but I do see that the amount to refund is set at $769.00 which was the difference paid when upgraded. "
Still no credit.
Oct 26,2016 I requested a name and number for someone who actually does the credits and I was told "You will want to speak with Joe 650-918-6259. He would be in charge of credits. "
I called Joe but there was no answer so I left a message.
Oct 31, 2016 I received an email from Joe stating that he could credit the amount but I would have to pay the paypal fees because the transaction was too old.
Nov 1,2016 I informed Joe that I was not responsible for the fees because the credit was supposed to be done when the order was changed in April.
No Response
Dec 1,2016 I send another email asking what is happening with the credit and I still haven't received a response.
This has almost been a year and Motostrano couldn't care less about crediting me back. Paypal has told me that because its been longer that 3 months they can't do anything at this point. It is extremely disheartening to have to deal with this. I do not know why they won't credit me back. but I would like to think they actually care about their reputation.
I'm expecting to put this out into our community as a last resort and hope that they make things right. I guess we will see. As of right now I don't ever recommend anyone use Motostrano for any purchases.
Hi Larry
I didn't get your email from the 1st. Please re-send it.
We spoke last you have a store credit and Paypal won't let me refund it direct to you. We can send a direct payment, as I suggested last we spoke.

It isn't Facebook's fault that so many social ad campaigns fail
Last month, Brian Solis pulled together a list of strategic investment priorities for Facebook to invest in post-IPO.
Interestingly, one glaring omission was a revised model/or strategy for working with advertisers...
The first screen may not be the one you think
We may argue that we didn't need studies to tell us that tablets are taking attention away from TV screens. In fact, before tablets and smartphones even existed, laptops were already gaining ground in the living room.
Today, the question is not whether we live in a multiscreen world or not, but which screen is the most valuable, the the bigger one or one getting the most attention from consumers? Is it possible that the data from those studies needs to be reinterpreted?
ITV to Apple: don't use 'iTV'
Is Apple's next big move the revolution of the small screen? Despite the company's less-than-stellar past attempts at putting its imprint on the television, many believe 2012 is the year Apple will up its efforts to change the device with a big product launch.
If Apple does move forward with a smart television, there's one obvious name that would be most fitting: iTV. After all, Apple has become synonymous with 'i-' products, from the iPod to the iPad.
Apple launches 'season pass' option for TV shows
iTunes is perhaps the best friend of countless music fans. It's easy to forget about the days in which you had to purchase an entire CD just to get one song, now thanks to Apple's service, millions of consumers today buy their music à la carte.
That's not to say that Apple and its record label partners don't want consumers to purchase albums.
To that end, Apple has for some time offered a 'Complete My Album' option that allows iTunes users that have purchased an individual track from an album to purchase the entirealbum at a discounted price.
TV and search: associative marketing in a two-screen world
Everyone is aware of product placement, the deliberate incorporation of a product or brand into a movie, television episode or other media vehicle to promote it to the viewing audience, typically in a subtle way to create affinity and recognition over time.
However, there's more to product placement than simply placing a Papa John's pizza box in clear view in a major sitcom.
From a marketer's perspective that is only one facet of how what appears on TV can impact on what consumers then think about and do, and it isn't limited to just brand placement, recognition and recall either.
Agree to Disagree: TV vs Digital for reaching a large audience
We recently asked marketers whether TV was still necessary for reaching the masses. They disagreed with that idea by a large margin...but are they right? How do digital and TV match up when scale is the number one variable?
JUMP Magazine issue 3: TV & social, mobile, and location-based marketing
Twice a year Econsultancy produces a print magazine focused on multichannel business strategies, to help support our JUMP event.
The latest issue of the JUMP magazine is now available for download. It's free, though you need to be a registered Bronze member (also free) or Econsultancy subscriber to download it.
In it you'll find that we've been exploring the relationship between TV and online, among other things. We're slightly obsessed with the idea that we are on the verge of another golden age for television.
Games are the new TV
Social Games like Farmville attract more active players than top TV shows in America have viewers. If engagement (recency, frequency, duration, virality and ratings) is factored in, it becomes even more obvious that social games are the new mass market medium.
The key to their success lies not only in the power of the Facebook platform, but also in games' motivational design focus and clever business model. While the prognosis for TV advertising may look increasingly grim, companies big and small are leveraging the techniques of social games to energize their brands.
This process is called Gamification, and it promises to bridge the gap between diverse interactions' utility and social games' fun and engagement.
Study: Facebook and Twitter will battle for billions in TV ads
Social media is starting to play an increasingly large role in the course of events on terrestrial television. And according to a new report from media research firm Futurescape, Facebook and Twitter will soon be battling it out over multi-billion dollar TV ad budgets.
As television and digital merge, social services like Facebook and Twitter are in a unique position to vie for users' attention on the (slightly) bigger screen.
Increasing the impact of an ad campaign using social media
In this post I'm looking at the world of real multichannel advertising, and how brands can extend the impact of a TV advertising campaign well beyond its airtime.
Earlier this month (May 2010), Bain & Company and the IAB concluded the final part of its year-long study into 'Building Brands Online'.
The study (PDF) reports the need for brand advertisers to: 'develop and utilise more innovative ad formats'; 'cast a wider net for creative ideas'; and 'drive cross-platform campaign integration'; in order to realise the real potential value of online advertising.
How offline marketing boosts online effect by 40%
Who would have thought that nearly 40% of online searchers make a purchase after being influenced by an offline channel? You would expect some influence, yes, but that significant?
That's exactly what the results from a recent iProspect study looking into offline influence on online search behaviour indicate...
TV brands and social media: the Good, the Bad and the Ugly.
I've set myself a social media challenge: to look at three brands every month within a specific industry to find out how well they're doing in the social media space, or not.
I'll rate them in terms of their performance alongside others in the same sector. I'll share what I find here and really welcome your comments on my findings.

text: JUPITER, Fla., April 3, 2013 /PRNewswire/ -- The author of Brain Fitness: Breakthrough Training for Those Who Mind is back with another winning read. Dr. Ann Polya recently released her new book, Mind over Matter: the Power of Emotional Intelligence, which is built on her first exploration of the applications and use of all the recent research in neuroscience, promoting a robust understanding of Emotional Intelligence. In this book "...she enlightens her readers on this important subject, but also includes strategies and exercises for improving the brain's ability to build the emotional intelligence 'muscle,' and thereby claim better relationships and a healthy emotional life." - Diane Foster, MCC, MA Career Development, and author of " The Skill Kit for Leaders". The book expands on the nature of Emotional Intelligence, which involves better self-awareness of people's emotions so that they can optimize their relationship strategies. It is when people are under stress that they revert to behaviors that protect their emotional well-being, and while these reactions can serve them well – as adults they frequently no longer do so. With Emotional Intelligence they are able to take back control of their emotions and thinking – rather than be their prisoner – and in this way, people will improve their relationships. People with well-developed Emotional Intelligence find relationships easy, enjoyable, and rewarding. They are more connected to others and are flexible, resilient, and tolerant of differences. Emotionally intelligent individuals are optimistic, trusting, and good listeners. Empowering and timely, this book adds value to everyone's lives, allowing them to act in ways that matter – even when no one is looking – because this defines who they are. This book is available online and can be purchased at www.amazon.com, www.barnesandnoble.com, and www.xlibris.com. About the AuthorAnn J. Polya, Ph.D. is a certified Emotional Intelligence consultant and a certified ICF Executive and Personal Coach. She has two Master's degrees and a Doctorate in Behavioral Sciences. Her varied work background spans three continents. She has worked in senior government with the European Union, senior corporate executive with Pfizer, and as a trained psychotherapist, consultant, coach, author, and speaker. She lives in Florida and Connecticut. Mind Over Matter: The Power of Emotional Intelligence by Ann J.

Digging to America
€ 9,99
Sofort lieferbar
Mai 2007
PortraitBorn in Minneapolis in 1941, Anne Tyler lives in Baltimore where her novels are set. She is the Pulitzer-prize winning author of Breathing Lessons and other bestselling novels, including The Accidental Tourist, Saint Maybe, Back When We Were Grownups, The Amateur Marriage, Digging to America and Noah's Compass. She has recently received the Sunday Times Award for Literary Excellence, which recognises a lifetime's achievement in books.
Pressestimmen"The view from America may be darkening, but Anne Tyler's new novel sheds a warm light on the ordinary human needs and actions that shore up American ideals of ethnic integration, neighbourliness and family values" -- Terri Apter Times Literary Supplement "Out of this everyday material she spins gold: stories so achingly truthful, so achingly funny, so sad and so real that you can only marvel...her trademark blend of observant comedy and tragedy, and her window into the human heart, are gloriously apparent" -- Elizabeth Buchan Daily Mail "Deliciously funny and sharply observed" -- Lisa Allardice Guardian "Wise and funny...a multidimensional exploration of what it means to belong, not only to a family but also to a nation" -- Lucy Hughes-Hallet Sunday Times "Anne Tyler draws a comedy that is not so much brilliant as luminous - its observant sharpness sweetened by a generous understanding of human fallibility. So sure is her tone, so graceful her style, that the reader absorbs without literary indigestion a narrative constructed almost entirely of grand set pieces of domestic comedy... Articulated in her fine-grained prose, the pure kindliness of her finale expresses something of the forgotten goodness of the American dream" -- Jane Shilling Sunday Telegraph

Animefan and Darth Vorhees seem to rank consistently among the quickest.
I agree with intwenothor but I would also contact the makers directly and ask them what their turnaround is.
Also keep an eye on the cargo hold here. A few nice looking helmets have come up for sale recently and would eliminate any wait time
Thanks for the mention Andy/intwenothor! Currently my wait for a helmet kit is about 2-3 weeks
Has anyone even received an FPH2 recently?
I've tried emailing him to check on the status but have not heard back. Starting to worry

He is in the process of revamping his whole system. He is going to a system where he will only sell what he has on hand, but as you can guess that means he has to catch up on all the back orders too. Chris posted an update a couple months back explaining all that was going on, but I have no idea where the thread is.

Effective immediately, I'll need to start offering for sale, only what I have made and available to ship, while current back orders sustain a longer lead time. There's no way to sugar coat it. Yes, this is the annoying part. The breakdown means, that any new orders will meet expenses, and allow me to catch up on back orders individually over a period of time. It doesn't mean any seriously drastic further delays. But will allow me to cope with the current circumstances at hand, more efficiently in the long run. It will take the time it takes. But in the end, we can all move forward positively.
I realize, from the customer POV, this seems extremely unfair. And, is generally seen as really 'bad business'. But sometimes extreme circumstances require extreme measures. And sacrifices. And to date, I've made many. And I'm asking for a small sacrifice from you. I realize the bitterness, and resentment that can be felt when a customer that's been waiting for a while, see's someone else get something they've been waiting for, sooner. What I'm asking for, is your restraint in the condemnation of this path I've chosen to take, and understand that it is a necessary measure to ensure that we all win. You're not just helping me, you're helping your fellow Fettheads, too. After all, the only real concession you'll actually be having to make is giving me a reprieve on my existing lead times, and allowing me the breathing room to take care of your business.
My feeling here is, in a time of turbulence, this is the best course of action to take. Inevitably there will be a few very upset individuals. I'd ask that you refrain from posting negativity publicly, and come to me directly should you feel the need to want to vent. I sincerely hope that my candor earns me your continued support, patience and understanding during this difficult time. Soon, we can all move on to cool new things, and maybe even set a new precedence. If I can make this change, so can others. And in time maybe we can reform the way props are traded across the board. If we work together, we can move mountains.
Thanks so much,

Thanks intwenothor
It's my opinion that the MR premium helmet done by Ryan (animefan) is closer to the screen used helemt than the fph2. While the FP helemt is nice, the added cheek flair and flattened dome are deal breakers for myself.
Second the cargo hold method - it's how I snagged my FP!
I have to say the added flair is correct for ESB on the FPH2 ESB. Not sure how that would be a deal breaker if your looking for an ESB helmet. I think the hero ESB is an anomoly..for whatever reason, but it def has a flair the other helmets do not. You can see it pretty clearly in these shots:
Recent pics of the hero helmet may appear not to have it but thats because most of those pics are taken fairly close up, and the lens def distorts the look when your that close. I know this because my helmets also have a bit of flair on them, but if i take a pic of it fairly close up, it gets lost in the photo. I have to take a pic from a few feet away, zoomed in for you to see it, just like in those screen shots above i posted.
Other aspects i cant really say, as i havent really looked into them, but the flair is something myself and alot of other ESB Fett guys i know always like/wanted in an ESB specific helmet, because it is seen pretty clearly in a few shots in the film. But, at any rate, to each their own i guess
Sorry for drifting off topic.... :/
I have always liked the flare shown on those scenes, but wondered if it was from lens distortion in those scenes themselves. The EFX lid announcement thread pic just doesn't look like it has the same ear profile/slant. Would love to see some overlay work with all the helmet types.
From what i know, lens distortion is more likely to occur when your camera is to close to the subject, but thats with photography, not sure how different it may be with video/film cameras. Also nothing else in the scene appears to be distorted, like the round window or the vertical lines on the walls.
The EFX and the FPH2 are actually very similar. I held the EFX prototype at C7 for a good 5 minutes ...and i do own a FPH2 ESB and from what i could tell they are very very close in size and the flair. It actually made me even more impressed with the FPH2. It also made me really want to run away with that EFX prototype LOL..but im sure Gino would have killed me hahaha!
I tried to do an overlay comparison once but it didn't really work because i think you'd need to have all the helmets in front of you and photographed at the same distance and angles to really get a true comparison.
That may be so, but seeing the fph2 next to an MR (and a MF) the differences between it and the MR are really obvious. I'm not saying the fph2 is not a good helmet, I am only saying for my self that I would rather have an MR based kit (or a MF but that worn happen).
Oh yea for sure. My helmet is based of the MR and is def different than the FPH2. The MR is def a little bigger. That said, i havent messed with it all that much...i just added some of that flair at the bottom and made the damage more prominent, but not quite right. At some point im going to fix that and fix the shape of the upper mandibles because its idealized on the MR..and maybe fix up the dent, and add the wavy brow...but i'll likely do that all at once and then call it done. Im certainly not out to make the best helmet out there. I just want to have something fairly accurate that is made well and plays the part
Id love to have an MF also, but way out of my price range as well.
I'd love to see a fully pimped out line of MRs. I love it as a base but it could use some improvement mostly as you mentioned. One of the biggest stumbling blocks for me is the dent which I feel is more of a crater than a dent. I prefered the FPH2 dent to the MR one; it just feels slightly large and I'll defined on the MR helmets and deep enough to crawl inside and curl up for a sleep!
What would you do with the mandibles?
The EFX and FPH2 aren't really that similar in shape.
The FPH2 Does suffer from too much flare on the right side in particular. The dent is also much softer than the EFX.
I did see a hugely thickly laid up fiberglass FPH2 in person. FP is truly very good with his casting work. You could smash through a wall in that thing.
I love the MR lineage helmets but they too suffer from a few issues.
Their flare is close but a bit odd in some cases. Their size is pretty close to the real deal but the left side I believe was tampered with in the 3D modelling stage.
Nevertheless there have been some very good versions of these made. Like a few here, it is my favorite of the "old stock"
The EFX and Anovos helmets will truly be a gift for the ESB lovers.
The efx helmet will never see the light of day. It's been how long since it was cast and no new information on it; heck when it was at SDCC it was still in the same primer for hat it was painted with once it came out of the mold. And now that anovos is doing a fett helmet, the efx is dead in th water; that is unless Gino or someone with some reliable knowledge can state otherwise.
