I've not uploaded in a while but that sounds a bit strange. I'd imagine since it's optional you could just leave it blank.
What you should have ready to upload is:
1 x Thumbnail Image 1 x zip file containig the preview and screenshot images 1 x zip file of the main itheme files e.g. what gets downloaded on purchase
i think thats it – hopefully not stating the obvious…
It's great that you're looking into WP Theme Development, the links above would be a very good start.
My honest advice however would be to get cracking on creating some HTML /CSS themes first to give you a more rounded skillbase. You could then take one and try converting it to WP as a bit of homework
Personally speaking, I'm fine with HTML /CSS and I can get around WP to fiddle around but in terms of actual theme development I'm not even close to being able to develop one of my own – plus I'd be rubbish at supporting it!
I had that too. They actually bought a WP theme so I wa half expecting a big payout but nothing! I think its to do with them not signing up buy paying the full price grrrr.
37signals posted a really neat tutorial on thishttp://37signals.com/svn/posts/2609-customizing-web-forms-with-css3-and-webkit
I think you are worrying a little too much though, concentrate on getting the rest of your theme absoloutely spot on as this is a minor issue really.
Sometimes we (authors) get stuck on the tiniest things for ages. Someone on here once told me to quit doing that and concentrate on the theme as a whole and it's so true – otherwise you'll never even finish.
Best of Luck.
This comes up every year
What I find is my sales are higher just after the 15th when the payouts come and again at teh end of the month when people get paid.
Re Christmas though – I wouldn't really worry too much I mean if the themes are good enough they sell themselves.
Merry Christmas everybody
Thanks Monkify I think this is exactly what I need.
What was happening previously is people could register as subsribers but when they logged in they saw the WP Dashboard – i don't want this, all I want is for them to log in to see content but ithink this plugin deals with this.
I did a fair bit of searching, tbh most dealt with premium logins etc. but I didnt see this one so I'll try this!!
Anyone got anymore thoughts on this please?
I could really do with some help…
Thanks for the replies!
It doesn't have to be a plugin – I'll freely admit to not knowing enough about WP to know all the options.
What I don't want is them to log in to a blank dashboard really. Any more options?
Has anyone got a recommendation for a WP registration / sign up plugin?
My client is looking for a solution whereby only signed in users can access certain areas of the site. They don't need charging or anything like that it is purely to ensure they maintain some control over teh contents audience.
Ideally it would let users register and perhaps restrict access to pages unless they are signed in.
Does anyone have any suggestions – if I haven't been very clear do please ask and I'll clarify.
I think you are probably okay doing that I mean it's a bit like when you buy the WP version of a site includes the HTML version.
It'd be different if say you were including 2-4 Admin Skins in one bundle (although that would be pretty cool). The reason I don't think thats allowed is someone like Kriesi or Orman Clark could literally bundle 3-4 themes togehter and ell an absoloute bucket load.
You should be fine with a CC item though – you'd pay for that in the price of the theme.

The Bureau of Labor Statistics used to keep track of "green goods and services jobs," but funding for that program was cut in 2011 – although not before it found 2,154,700 direct green goods and services jobs in 2009.1

However, it's impossible to know exactly how many of those jobs were directly tied to clean energy specifically. According to IRENA, renewable energy supported 650,000 jobs in the U.S. in 2013…3

Political Crises
Apparently, there is a "new normal" when it comes to presidential politics.
It seems that the campaign is now two-and-a-half to three years. I don't know if most people manage to tune it out until the end or if they are fatigued by the end.
The only good thing about this interminable process I can think of is we get to see how the candidates react to crisis.
Every candidate for office is human. That means that every candidate has problems.
Fortunately, the American system of governance was set up in the Constitution so that as long as we adhere to the Constitution, we do not need to have saints or Boy Scouts for politicians. Saints and Boy Scouts are needed only when the government has massive power and massive control; a benevolent dictatorship.
This year's primary process is unusual. This time, we get to see the candidates over and over and over and over again as their weaknesses, sins, character flaws, and failings are exposed. Each one of these create a political crisis for the candidate. We get to evaluate how they handle it.
Herman Cain and Michele Bachmann were subjected to comparatively minor scandals, adultery and homosexual issues, and both flamed out.
Newt Gingrich cheated on at least two wives and is in his third marriage. This aspect of his life is a bit messier than even the description suggests. He also has a history of not "playing well with others," and egotism.
Newt insists he is older and a changed person. He has rediscovered God and sought forgiveness. Forgiveness, incidentally, removes impediments to Heaven, not the White House. So far, he has put his skeletons on full display and continued to press forward.
Mitt Romney has been hit with issues involving his founding venture capital firm Bain Capital, requests to reveal his tax returns, investments in the tax haven Cayman Islands, and finally, of simply being rich enough that the presidency would be a huge pay cut for him.
Like Newt's adulteries, this line of attack should have been as obvious as the nose on his face. Yet, when the political crisis comes, Mitt display a tendency to dither first, dodge second, then open up.
Ron Paul was the editor of the "Ron Paul News Letter," which he apparently did not always read. The newsletter published articles that have been construed to be racist and anti-homosexual. He has disavowed these articles and insists that we move on. The media have not yet gotten around to highlight his opinions on drugs and the terrorist attack of Sept. 11.
Ron Paul is a non-interventionist. He is blasted over and over again about his insistence that we get out of the affairs of other nations they will leave us alone. This has been his political crisis. He has been unrepentant and tries to explain his reasoning when given a chance.
Rick Santorum has yet to have the spotlight turned full upon him, yet. I dug deep for you the reader. The only scandals I could find are his disdain for public schools and opposition to homosexuality. Santorum believes that homosexuality is subject to regulation by the states in the same way that states can regulate polygamy, bestiality, child molestation and incest.
Rick Santorum has yet to be put into the crucible on these issues.
Barack Obama has yet to get the proverbial 3 a.m., phone call as far as we know.
However, he has had to deal with Marines tinkling on dead terrorists, Iranian missile silos being built in Venezuela, Iran threatening to close the Straits of Hormuz and threatening to torpedo one of our aircraft carriers, Iran finally admitting to its intent on building a nuclear bomb, not to mention unemployment rates reaching 17 percent (when the numbers are not monkeyed around with).
Obama ignores problems, hides problems, or declares that problems are actually successes. Unfortunately, it seems that when the better choice is to zig, Obama inevitably chooses to zag.
We the voters don't get to create our candidate. We can only choose from among those who are willing to campaign for the office. It is na*ve to believe that there is any perfect candidate. The best part of exposing all of these flaws is seeing how the candidates react to it.
As President, there is a 100-percent chance that something will go wrong. If that was not the case, the office wouldn't be so important.
These political crises give us a chance to measure the true metal of our candidates and hopefully, select the best from among the lot.

Should I Stay Local or Travel for the Best Treatment?
Seeking local treatment might seem like the best rehab option, surrounded by familiar places and close to friends and family. While this may be the most convenient route to take, there are also some significant drawbacks to be aware of. Making a "clean break" from drugs and alcohol, separating from the environments and people most associated with the addiction, often leads to the best results. The chances of relapse are diminished when you are away from home, since you are limiting your access to the substances you are trying to quit. Many rehabs are located in incredible settings, from oceanfront and lakeside facilities to picturesque desert retreats - perfect for creating the right atmosphere for feeling peaceful, keeping positive and staying healthy during, and after, your stay. So make sure you consider all your options when deciding the best place to make a fresh start.
How Much Does Addiction Treatment Cost?
Treatment prices depend on the treatment phases involved and the level of service and extras provided. The range runs from free and low-cost options that are generally state or federally funded, all the way up to very expensive treatment at facilities that give 5 star resorts a run for their money. In terms of free options, consider hosting an intervention with friends and family, along with visiting www.SAMHSA.gov which has a treatment center locator and provides listings to government-funded and very low cost alternatives.
Is Insurance Accepted?
In many cases YES. Although not every detox or rehabilitation facility will accept insurance, many do. Most of the facilities that we refer people to do accept private insurance, so give us a call today to verify what coverage you may have and we will do everything possible to help make that work for you!
How Long Does Effective Treatment Take?
Studies indicate that the success rate for recovery rises dramatically with the length of treatment. That is, the longer an individual spent in a facility treating their drug or alcohol dependencies, the less likely they were to relapse. Detox and rehab can be done in as few as 21 to 30 days, though the probability of remaining alcohol and drug-free rises dramatically as the individual passes 90 days of treatment.
We are happy that you've discovered ProjectKnow.com to pinpoint support in Orange, for you or someone you know.

All of the will furnish you with some of most excellent residential rehab therapy, comprehensive detox and treatment program options presented in any town and include long term luxury and residential programs. We've found many in Orange:
In the event that the suggested featured treatment plan facility options don't fit what you need, there are still many options available to you. We've uncovered many alternative alcohol abuse centers near Orange . Don't let the huge amount of alternatives worry you, though - our team of advisors are always here to help you select the facility if you need to speak with a live person. Our free phone number is 1-888-287-0471, and someone is accessible day and night.
Addiction Treatment programs are comprised of a surprising variety of stages, regardless of whether it is necessary to aid a user overcome physiological cravings or an addiction to any behavior. In instances of abuse of drugs or alcohol it very often involves a course of detox, followed by a drug recovery program. Drug abuse recovery programs, treatment for alcoholics and habit-related addiction treatment also make use of ongoing substance abuse counseling. Should it become necessary, services to help plan an intervention are most often existing. To ensure that you locate the rehab that's the perfect option for your required needs in Orange, call one of our agents to help you find a clinic when you are ready to get the help you need. Kick Levacetylmethadol (LAAM), Orlaam or whichever particular substance has formerly been keeping you hostage.
Without maintained vigiliance and ongoing assistance, it's easy for a former addict to revert back to old ways in our challenging times. Because of this reason it's worth contemplating residential care or a sober-living community for constant substance addiction therapy even after you've departed from a facilities. It's critical to have a trustworthy support system to lead a sober life so make sure you speak with someone, whether it's a family member or friend or a professional drug counselor.
If you're seeking addiction treatment for yourself or a loved one, our ProjectKnow.com help line is a private and convenient solution. Caring advisors are available 24/7 to discuss treatment options with you.
Calls to any general help line (non-facility specific 1-8XX numbers) found on this site will be answered between the hours of 5:00am and 9:00pm Pacific by American Addiction Centers (AAC) and outside of those hours by one of our paid treatment center sponsors.
You can connect with non-sponsor facilities by browsing our listings and calling them directly.

How to on Fiber Glass Parts
I'm trying to make a removeable fiber glass mold that would cover my speaker box so that i can paint it and make it look a bit sharper than just having a regular gray carpet covered box. (it would mimic the C5 waterfall cover behind the seats)
I have fairly limited funds so economy is a consideration. But from the basic knowledge I have learned so far, I believe this can be a fairly simple project.
I guess all I need is a roll of fiber and some resin. But what do you recomend?
Then I think the next step would be to cover the box with plastic "(so that it dosn't stick to the box), mix the resin and just lay out strips until the entire box is covered. Then once it hardens slide it off, rip out the plastic that is stuck to the inside of the mold, and then do some major sanding.
How long does the mold normally take to dry before I can handle it?
What is this roller thing i hear about and what kind should i buy?
Any tips on easy ways to soak and apply the resin and fiberglass?
Can I pick up most of my supplies at a local auto store and how much would i need for approx. a 3' by 4' total surface area?
Any information and advice you could provide to get me started with my project would be greatly appreciated.
Jason Browning -18th Military Police Det.
I'm not sure what your box looks like but it sounds like you have the basic concept down. I wouldn't try covering the box in plastic. The styrene monomer in the polyester resin will attack most plastics and you may end up with more of a mess that you can imagine. If the box is wood, I would cover it with a coat of Vaseline. Doesn't need to be slathering in it, just well coated. Then smear on a thin but complete coat of Bondo. The Bondo will not stick to the Vaseline and will pop right off when you are ready. Finally put 4 layers of the hardware store fiberglass mat with resin over the Bondo and let it set. If you can put it in the sun to cure, it will take only an hour or so. The stuff seems to set right up in UV radiation. In a 70F shop it may take half a day to set. If it sets overnight, it will be hard. All you need to do then is pop it off the box and give the wood box and the new fiberglass box a wash down with lacquer thinner to get rid of the Vaseline.
You don't need any fancy tools for this job. Just a coffee can to mix the resin in, a stirring stick and a 2" chip brush (cheap $0.79 paintbrush). I have had two of those fancy rollers for 20 years and have never used them and I have made MANY car parts. Cut or tear the cloth to shape, mix the resin to spec, paint on a thick layer of resin, put on a layer of cloth and tap and paint it with the brush to wet it clear through and get out the air bubbles, keep at this 'til all 4 layers are on. Get some acetone to clean up with 'cause you will be a sticky mess when done, guarantee.
vaseline eh? interesting. Willys knows his stuff for sure.
I did a few small parts for my truck, I used aluminum foil to cover the original part really well, then I brushed I light coat of the resin on the aluminum foil, then I put strips of the fiberglass matting on, and brushed on more resin.
I think you will find if you brush a light coat of resin on first, it will help the mat to stick to the piece...The matting has a tendancy of turning to sludge when you get alot of resin on it...
I think the instructions actually say that you should completely submerge the mat in a tray of the resin...I have not had good success with this, it falls apart and turns to mush.
good luck...vaseline eh?
I've made molds using cardboard and bondo with parrifin spread over it for release agent, someone recently told me they used Pam or another of those spray on cooking products.
Great responses to all fibo questions, willys- what a 'knowledge base' in one person- we are Lucky to have you on the board (and I mean this!!!) Also remember, SnapCase, that matting and cloth is available- with larger parts I'd suggest the cloth as you can cover a larger area and make it smoother. Fibo works great for speaker boxes- I made the ones in my 'J. Don't rush cure time as it gums up the sandpaper, but willys is right on- about an hour in the sun!! Fibo=Fun!!
Yeah, every time I've ever saturated the matte first, I either got bubbles in it or it tore apart. The roller is OK for flat surfaces but no good for getting into tight corners. I mostly just use paint brushes, you'll develop a technique that minimizes bubbles pretty quickly.
I thought I was the king of using crazy stuff for molds, but you win, Willys! Vaseline?? I bet that works like a d@mn.. Just don't get any sand in it, huh?
When life hands you lemons, ask for tequila and salt
Mold wax and PVA are still best for fine mold making but for the type of molding SnapCase is doing, Vaseline is perfect. Can't really wax bare wood or other rough molds and my experience with wrapping them in tin foil, etc. has been disappointing. Tin foil can separate from the underlying mold and cause innaccuracy and the resin always seems to seep under the foil and stick everything tight.
The key to this method is the layer of bondo between the Vaseline and fiberglass. 'Glass resin may penetrate the grease and stick the part but Bondo is so repulsed by it that the parts literally fall apart when de-molding. also the Bondo seals the whole mess so resin cannot seep into the underlying mold.
What about just stripping the carpet off the box and covering it with bondo and then just painting the bondo. Technically all im trying to do is heighten the appearence of the box. I want to do this by painting it. Painting particle board just dosnt work. so i thought i would cover it with fiberglass and paint that. but now im thinking bondo would be easier and less messy. is it possible to get a good smooth paintable finish if i just smear bondo over the wooden box and then sand it smooth?
thanks jason
I do hope you mean MDf board and not particle board. Particle board will begin to fail after a certain amount of time.
Willys gave you some good advice - never thought about using vaseline.
As mentioned, you can use Pam or other brand cooking spray as well.
I have used the aluminum foil but had varied response...
I mostly just use masking tape and a good coat of wax or lard. If you do that, make sure you have planty of tape overlapping.
And to answer your last question, you don't even need to bondo the box if you just want to paint.
Go to www.soundillusions.net and do a search for painting boxes. I think they even have a tutorial in their on-line magazine.
Good luck and keep us posted
Here's a site on fiberglass and info on products.
Epoxy smell's a lot less than polyester resin.

This would give you a good smooth surface but the wood underneath isn't very stable and the Bondo would eventually crack. If you want to use the boxes and just get a smooth finish, I would still put at least one layer of fiberglass mat and resin over the boxes to give them a stable surface then Bondo, sand and paint. That would last forever.

Discussion in 'Pistons and NBA' started by MainManJoeD, Jul 4, 2006.
Pryzbilla is from Minnesota.
Roscoe is exactly right about Flip. Because he's American? Because the Pistons don't sit their starting centers in the postseason to play smallball? Because he lives in Wisconsin? Godzilla is dumb as a post and injury prone, but I'm not convinced he won't be almost as effective as Ben was under Flip Saunders (i.e., not very).
If this rumor holds out to be true, then is it safe to say Joe is not looking to blow up the core players with ben gone?
You guys should look for some of the advatages here. Now any Darko talk I am not buying because as talanted as the kidd is he is not right in the head. If we get Przbilla for the MLE thats a 9 mil/yr savings over what we would have had to pay Ben. Thats 9 mil more to retain Billups with and to not lose any young guys if they work out. hey it happened, we lost Ben. Nothing we can do about that. This news actually cheered me up some, I hope we can get it done.
Does anyone not agree with this? There still may be some Flip supporters out there but I think its pretty much a concensious that Flip sucks and would have still sucked whether we had Ben or not. On Prryzbilla - I finally found a shread of good news here to be happy about.
Ok, I'll try to keep an open mind... go Prissy... PPPPP Pryzbilla (que Good Humor chime)
if you are looking for something he did average slightly more BPG in his limited mins than Ben did last season. I am not too familiar with him actually. He is supposed to be a defensive minded Center who sometimes is overly aggressive in the paint which leads to foul trouble. Also a knock of being injury prone. Guys agree with that? You get what you pay for I suppose.
Sorry, I hate to crap on your parade. Good news is hard to come by. Long term, signing Pryzbilla means that the Pistons are not committed to paying luxury tax. If CB is going to get a new deal, the Pistons will have to get freer with their money, win a title, or start moving other expensive pieces not named McDyess (trade kicker).
Heres Ben's pre Detroit Stat line: 228 Games total - 113 started averaging around 20 mpg (not counting rookie yr -- bench sitter) 3.75 ppg, 5.8 rpg Przybilla: 285 games (206 started) 20 mpg average 4 ppg, 5.6 rpg, 1.8 bpg The point being they are very similiar to start. Nevertheless, to say JP will be BigBen is another story.
well if he signs, i guess it's not a terrible consolation prize, but it doesn't exactly excite me
if it did you would be a pretty boring person
signing Przybilla would be equivalent to when San Antonio signed Rasho to replace David Robinson, except they still had Timmy Duncan and we have Will Blalock.
Believe me its no parade. Just kind of relieved that getting Bonzi and trying to become the PHX of the East is not the answer to losing Ben.
Bonzi is a swingman with 3 point range, and a superb rebounder. Frankly, Pryzbilla fills a need. Bonzi would be the better spin and publicity signing. Besides, do we really feel great about Delfino being Rip and Tay's primary backup?
60M for 4 years was Ben's price to move on... That is a crippling contract when your owner won't budge Another source showing the terms
You gotta love how the Chi-town media are thrilled to get Ben, and the local beatniks will try to downplay his contributions. @AHB - if Pryzbilla is thick as a brick, maybe he won't ask to be part of the offense. :P
Przybilla the Vanilla Gorilla. Hmmmm...well, under the circumstances I suppose we could do worse. But is he really better than Darko?
Well, at least the difference between keeping and losing him (60/4 vs 50/4) wasn't a "measly" $4 million (52/4 vs 48/4 as originally suggested). As much difficulty as it creates for the Pistons, they always said they wouldn't pay Ben those kind of dollars (60/4), and I don't blame them. He doesn't score, at all (and please don't tell me about him being more involved in the offense under Larry Brown) and is a joke at the free throw line. If Ben were Bill Russell maybe, but, as good as he is, he isn't Bill Russell. PS On free throw shooting ... I can't help feeling that any guy, no matter how lousy he is at the free throw line, couldn't make himself at least a 60-65% free throw shooter if he dedicated himself to that improvement over one off season. Can anyone with some actual playing experience offer any insight on this?
Yeah, a lot of the bigger guys (SHAQ) claim it is hand size screwing with their rotation
Sounds fine with me. Przybilla can actually catch passes and go up strong, and he sets hard picks - I remember the Blazers killed us with dunks off the high S/R in one of the games they should have won last season, and with a shooter like Chauncey there's no reason that he shouldn't get a few layups a game (pick-and-roll - imagine that). I will miss Ben's crazy Dream Shake moves with the ball flying out of his hand, though. :(

The world of Spanish wine has kept us busy, and sometimes even life gets in the way of writing about good wine. Our apologies to our loyal readers for the lack of blog entries over the past 12 months.
Mariano Fisac has ran again the successful "Best Spanish wine under 10 Euros" competition. This year it had a slightly different format: while all producers were invited to submit any wine that met the requirement, a panel of experts also submitted bottles based on their own personal tastes.
Our panel of experts for this year was: Eva Pizarro, Cristina Alcala, Isabelle Brunet, Orlando Lumbreras, Joan G. Pallarés, José Luis Louzán and Mariano Fisac .
A total of 50 wines were submitted via both routes to a blind tasting panel of experty s, bloggers, and consumers which ranked all wines. Bottles and labels were disguised in true blind tasting fashion.
This year the panel used a slightly unusual criteria: for each and any of the wines, they were asked :
"How much would you pay for a bottle of this wine?"
The final ranking is therefore looking at which wine gives the best value for money. The greater the [positive] difference between the actual retail price and the price the panellists were willing to pay, the better. The ranking was then drawn by adding the differences between the price the panel was willing to pay and their actual retail price, and wines were ranked from top to bottom.
No matter what some D.O.s may have been thumping on in press releases, the reality is that the 2013 vintage wasn't the best for some Spanish wine regions, and the ranking does reflect that somehow. There are some real gems in here, so go out and fetch a bottle or two.
In tenth place, a new entrant. It reflects a growing trend in the world of Spanish wine. This is a wine made by the Envínate group who are committed in their revolutionary work of finding terroirs that can be expressed in an environmentally-friendly way, wines that are also fresh and easy drinking. The grape variety is Garnacha Tintorera (Alicante Bouschet, Carignan Jeune), which has in the past been less regarded and relegated to mass production in the La Mancha region, or merely used to add colour to wines. This producer gets the best out of it with care and respect, giving a fresh, genuine, tasty wine with a great potential for food pairing. It is called Albahara 2013.
In ninth place a daring and radical Rioja. With a personality that didn't leave any panel member indifferent. We wouldn't call it a modern Rioja, though. Despite its volume and intensity, brings out the tradition of village wine, thirst quenching but loyal to its geographical origins and terroir. All grapes are organically grown and islargely Tempranillo based with a tiny bit of Viura. The whole package is rounded by a fresh and amusing label design and bottle presentation. This wine is ideal for aunexpected present. Named Malaspiedras (literally, bad stones), is produced by Bodegas Compañón Arrieta en Lanciego, Rioja Alavesa. Bring a bottle of two of this to a dinner party and you will grab everyone's attention.
In eighth place, an albariño shows up for the first time. The albariño grape, when used honestly and without further manipulation, always outperforms rivals in blind tasting events due its intensity, terroir and freshness.
There is not much that hasn't been said about Bodegas Zárate already, as it is one of the big names in quality Rias Baixas wines. Their bigger brothers, Zarate's grand cuvées such as "El Palomar" or our favourite "Tras da Viña, are well known and spoken about globally. But Zarate lives to its reputation too with this submission: their exceptionally good basic wine. It will start to give its best from next year onwards. We recommend you stock up on Zárate 2013, as we suspect this wine won't last for long on shelves.
In seventh place, another new entrant. Jesús M. Recuero, of a long lineage of local winemakers. He is the son, grandson & great grand-son of a winemaker. He works out of the remote area of Sierra de Gata, bidding his time. He has been working at restoring soils and vines in Villamiel in the middle of Extremadura, that sleeping giant region. The vineyard is pepper-potted by olive trees, heather and rockrose plants, which flow through the wine. It is called Antier and is a blend of old vine grapes: tinta fina (Tempranillo), piñuelo (Grenache) y rufeta (he believes is a variety of Grenache), all vinified right in the vineyard. It has a Mediterranean soul to it, but also reminds you of some of the great wines from south Portugal. A great find.
In sixth place, we kept on being surprised in this ranking. This little gem coming out of a tiny town in Férez (Albacete). Organic Bobal and monastrell grapes. There were just about 6 barrels made, full of fruit flavours. The wine is Lacerta 2012 , produced by Bodegas Lazo, their exclusive distributor is Ezequiel Sánchez Mateos, the terroir-hunter that can be found in Reserva y Cata. It is a massive find with an excellent value for money.
In fifth place another newcomer. We are not aware of the reasons why the D.O. Rias Baixas rejected this exceptional Albariño so it doesn't carry its D.O. seal. We would want to hope that the fact has done so well in our ranking would be noticed by those in charge of that decision.
For the rest of us, this Dena wine is a clear example of the most mineral albariñoversión, the Meaño cru over granite soils. Half of it spent 5 months in oak barrels, the rest of it aged in inox tanks. The blend results in a vibrant wine full of character that took the panel's heart. The wine is called Pescuda 2013 and is made by the Moldesfamily, which we have seen in the ranking other years with the other wine Finca APedreira. If you manage to get hold of any of it, grab it quickly as there is very limited produce.
In fourth place, probably not a surprise to anyone that has been following XurxoAlba and the wines that he keeps on crafting year on year. Xurxo Alba was the winer in 2012 with his now cult status Albamar 2011. Panel members may have changed, but his wines never leave anyone indifferent. The waves, algae, sea aromas are so distinct. If you want to show someone how a certain area expresses itself through an albariño grape, Albamar 2013 is a fine example. And it is a very good wine too!
As we approach the critical podium area, something unexpected in third place. It is a wine that comes from the efforts and love for an area by a priest, a hotelier and a farmer. Through respect and integrated viticulture they have brought up this Txacolia few notches above the rest. This is far from your average thin Txacoli, it is full of minerality, tension and flavour. It has great potential for food pairing and opens a new door for wines of Atlantic character. This is Txacolí Uno 2013 produced byGoianea.
In second place, one of the usual suspects year on year. This year has deservingly achieved its highest position in the ranking. A single-vineyard wine, of delicate and Burgundian character despite each vintage's own peculiarities. This 2013 is a delicate poem of balsamic and distinction. Not recommended for those loving concentration and tannins. Despite not having had any oak-barrel aging, keeps and evolves very well in bottle, so don't be afraid of getting a whole box and enjoy it as it ages with you. The wine is Viña Regueiral 2013.
And finally, there can only be one. In first place which makes it the overall winner for the 2014 Ranking, the wine that left the panel speechless.
It is a Moscatel, but its most complex, balanced and sensual variety. It is made in Chiclana (Cadiz) and had managed at last to place Andalusian wines where they deserve in the ranking. A ridiculously low price for this great sweet wine given everything it has to offer (a wine of this quality would be priced five times more if it was made in Germany or Hungary). A well deserving winner for the 2014 Ranking: Collantes Moscatel Oro "Los Cuartillos".
Lastly, we would like to say thank you to all that in one shape of form have made the ranking possible, specially to many producers whose wines have almost made it to the list bar a few decimal points. We frown upon other rankings where gold awards are dished by the hundreds, which we believe kind of removes the value in having a ranking in the first place.
Our approach to highlight the best of the best only allows for 10 wines to make it to the list, which makes others unfortunate "collateral damages". We do know and regret that otherwise fantastic wines haven't made it to the list, and we would like to encourage those that didn't make it to keep up the good work.
Winegossip of Spain will be publishing individual entries for each and any of the wines with more detailed descriptions of those wines as well as detailed tasting notes over the next few weeks.

This is looking like a pretty good game. Cryengine for the pretty graphics, spell creation and crafting, and some great voice talent set to do the lines… There's a story but I don't see much of a hint about quests or proper character development, though, so I'm thinking this action RPG hybrid is leaning much more toward the action side. It still looks like great fun, though!
Gamespot showed off some
gameplay footage
but you're going to need to jump 16 minutes in to see them switch to Lichdom.
The game itself is on Steam early access right now for $20.

The King Of Pop & Japanese Cosmetic & Skincare REVIEW
I cannot believe that Michael Jackson just passed away.
The King of Pop is an absolute legend and its such a shock that he passed away at the young age of 50.
No human being can come close to dancing, singing or entertaining like him.
His was a life of fame, plagued by endless legal suits, debts, family and image issues.
When I watch his old videos, its like being transported to another time zone. Its like re-living my past and it makes me feel sad that this eccentric genius is gone….
I take comfort in one fact that despite everything, his music lives on.
Moving on, I've been super busy at work and my desk is looking very cluttered.
My Practice Drawing:
Stuff I painted:
Some of my Work Tools:
On the MAKEUP & HAIR front :
After a serious hair frying incident and a rebonding session to salvage the over preocessed hair, I decided to chop off all the dead ends. I went to the shop and told the aunty to give me a straight hair cut and take off 3-4 inches of hair.
Now, when I leave my hair to air dry , its dead straight:
I had a fun time catching up with my pretty and wonderful friends last night and at the end of the day, my hair would look a little more wavy ….
When I curl this shorter hair of mine, I find that it looks mighty short….I've always had long hair most of my life, so I guess I'm used to feeling hair on my back and framing my face. I would love to try a really short hair style but I know it will spell disaster for my fat face. Also, I am making a guess that my Hubby will be frowning, ALOT!
Men and their long hair obsession *tsk tsk*
I so want my hair to look like these Japanese Girls that I see in
this magazine:
Right now, my hair is just naturally pin straight. It takes alot of time and product to make it stay curled. I must wake up earlier for the sake of grooming my hair ( but I'm so lazy) ! hehehe
I bought EYE FLASHER recently at Watsons.I am a true blue sucker for Japanese Products and this one was sitting pretty on the shelve with the most gorgeous wet SILVER Eyeshadow ( right most shade on palette). The Japs are so smart, they include simple instructions on the packaging to obtain 3 different looks.
My Favorite has to be the first one – Smokey Big Eye
I think the colors really compliment Asian yellow skin tones and they work together really well!
Many eye shadow palettes have certain colors that are crappy and certain colors that are gorgeous.This palette is that bit more special cause all the colors look great together and are so easy to blend, and they leave a gorgeous shine. I like the angled applicator tip that comes with the palette as it is suited for small areas, which then allows you to brighten the inner eye corners very nicely.
Also, the wet silver color on the right most is super super hot.
EYEFLASHER cost around $24 + and its worth every penny!
{I used all colors in the palette for my eyes in the picture above}
The Comparison:
**I won't do a comparison in terms of color because one is dark brown( Sephora) and the other is black ( Extra Heavy Eyeliner).
+ Very easy to use
+ The firm tip allows for easy application even on the lower eye lash
+ Does not smudge when you sweat
– The Tip does not allow for a very fine application like Sephora
– Leaves a hint of color after removal
+ Very Fine Tip Applicator for exact and precise lines
+ Cheaper than Sana Heavy Eyeliner
+ Easy to remove
– Takes rather long to dry
– Smudges easily
-Occasionally leaves a reddish tint after removal ( this can look pretty scary)
Personally, I would go with SANA EXTRA HEAVY EYELINER. I find pen type liquid liners easier to grip and draw and I like the fact that my sister preferred the eye with SANA Heavy Eyeliner more than the eye with Sephora's Line.
However, not to be too bias towards Japanese Products, I do find that brown eyeliner gives a softer appearance as compared to black liners and Sephora's liner tips are thin yet firm, thus drawing a precise line most of the time.
Everyone will have their own favorites, so do have fun experimenting!
(Bought this from WATSONS too, as they have a nice selection of Japanese skincare and cosmetics…. THANK U WATSONS! )
Another Japanese Product that I am GAGA about. This makeup remover is so so effective yet gentle at the same time. I think Shu Uemura Cleansing Oil has a serious contender and I think this baby may emerge the winner. WHY?
+Removes makeup like a dream!
+No funny smell
+A small pump is enough for removing heavy duty mascara!
+No Irritation at all( unless u get it right in ur eye)
Victoria Secret Berry Wash
* Changi Airport $18 +
+ Sweet smelling
+ Pretty Packaging
+Skin feels so creamy & moisturized after use
-If you have had smelly sweaty days, skip this. It won't make you feel squeaky clean
Satsuma Body Polish
*Body Shop ( I'm not sure about the price cause my family has 4-5 bottles at home)
+ OMG, EXCEPTIONAL SMELL that diffuses all over the home
+Pretty Packaging
+Skin is left feeling very Clean & I am completed invigorated after a SATSUMA BATH!
-I skip this at night because it's too zingy & invigorating for a good night's rest
Hope u enjoy this review heavy post and have a well rested weekend !

Science and policy, geeks, bosons, bankers and Eliot
"How will the world end? Not with a bang but a whimper". These are, of course, the closing lines of T.S.Eliot's famous poem of 1925 The Hollow Men, and I was reminded of their cosmological nature when reading various announcements of the 'discovery' (interestingly, as at the BBC, often in inverted commas) – or more accurately the inference from many trillions of candidate collisions – of the existence of a particle that may or may not be related to the ideas of Peter Higgs. In all of this I have largely failed to find the actual data (here are some secondary data) that underpin the announcement, and whether they have any statistical merit (given that quite recently similar data did not). Especially in the absence of any detailed data, and knowledge of whether the analysis of the trillions of tests was subject to a Bonferroni correction as one would assume is necessary, I do strongly wonder whether, and rather suspect that, the actual result will be similar to the one I predicted for the tachyonic neutrinos. I hope I am wrong, and that we can now firm up our thinking of what this knowledge actually means for our scientific understanding of these matters and their intellectual consequences.
Getting scientific analysis into governmental decision making is arguably the most important thing that most scientists can do for making and stewarding a better world. Thus I attended two very interesting meetings sponsored by the excellent Cambridge Centre for Science and Policy: the first was a networking event and insightful dinner discussion, and the second a lecture by Mark Henderson, onetime Science correspondent of the Times and now Head of Communications at the Wellcome Trust, based on his superb new book The Geek Manifesto. Required reading for those who love science and recognise the need to 'geek the vote', as his chapter 2 puts it.
I also attended a very interesting Open Day at the National Institute of Agricultural Botany (NIAB), including an excellent opening speech from, and discussion with, Cambridge biochemist and Liberal Democrat MP Julian Huppert. During the tour, it was especially interesting to see a variety of interspecific hybrids on the NIAB Innovation Farm, undoubtedly with a large range of interesting genetic variation, and with some of the novel brassicas already commercially available as seeds and presumably soon coming to the supermarkets. Other exhibits gave a salutary reminder of how hugely scientific research has improved wheat yields, especially since the beginning of the 20th century.
Following on from a recent blog post, I am pleased to see that our strategy development in the area of digital organisms is progressing. It is practically impossible to do engineering well without a parallel model of the system being worked on, so digital organisms – digital models of the biological systems of interest – represent a hugely important area. Thus, we have just opened a community consultation in this area. We are seeking inputs from researchers active in academia or industry at all stages of their careers and from all disciplines to give us their views on modelling and digital organisms. This consultation will feed into an expert working group we have set up in the area. I would encourage as many scientists as possible to fill in the questionnaire found here to help shape our policy on digital organisms.
We are also pleased to announce our joint call with the Department of Biotechnology in India focused on Bioenergy. The call is a direct output from the Workshop that was held in New Delhi in October 2011 and plans for which were announced by Minister of Universities and Science David Willetts on 15 November. Last week the Research Council Chief Executives also had one of our very useful periodic meetings with the Minister, who remains very keen to promote our agenda.
Amid much debate following the Finch report, I noted an interesting blogged book review of Peter Suber's eponymous book on Open Access. My personal view is that – as Finch recommends – Gold Open Access is the preferred route, not least since 'Green' self-archiving is already available. The obvious issues (keeping costs down, and allowing publishing access to otherwise unfunded researchers) can I think be managed effectively. I also enjoyed an ironic blog post on "words a bioinformatician never wants to hear", and a useful portal for understanding plant stresses as the basis of sustainable agriculture.
Finally, the banking scandals continue, bringing – among the utter disgust at the prevalent rip-off culture and potential criminality in financial 'services' – the occasional moment of light relief; it is 100% obvious that what we are learning in public is the very small tip of a giant and reprehensible iceberg, and it would be nice if things could be regulated fully, swiftly and properly before another crash that bankrupts our country (and others) happens again. It is elementary that the chief problem lies with allowing Institutions that have insufficient money or credit to lend it to (or take it from) folk who have less, and that this is what to regulate. Responsible Capitalism involves investing in the real economy for real growth and sustainability. As T. S. Eliot might have said, "How will the world end? Not with a whim but a banker". The Hollow Men, indeed.

For St. Patricks Day do your pets drag out green clothes and hats you never see the rest of the year? Will they be going to be out drinking green beer and eating green food? You feel left out?
I'm not talking about getting green water because I just don't think that will taste real good.
Now you can join in on the festivities with these cool St. Patrick's Day collars and leashes. Perfect for when they take you along with them – – or when you take them along with you!
Reilly again! I wanted to pass along some information about St. Patrick's Day before I tell you how WE can celebrate St. Patrick's Day along with our pets.
St. Patrick's Day is widely recognized and celebrated throughout the United States. It is primarily observed as a celebration of Irish and Irish American culture. Celebrations such as prominent displays of the color green, consumption of alcohol (often dyed green), religious observances, and numerous parades are often seen throughout the United States.
Of course, those are things that our pets might do, but what about us? We can definitely go with them and enjoy this holiday, even if we're not Irish Setters!
Dog Treats for St. Patrick's Day Too!
I think that we could also get some kind of deliciously yummy St. Patrick's Day dog treats to celebrate along with our pets! There are handmade treats that are iced with holiday designs. They are perfect for our eating while they are enjoying their green food.
They are also great for making us stay and be good while they are having too much fun drinking and partying with their friends. Each treat is made specifically for us dogs!
The St. Patrick's Day collars are all decorated in a different shamrock fashion. One even has Snoopy! A great doggy hero and one of my business idols! A few of the collars even include different charms to celebrate this day.
These collars come with matching leashes that complete the ensemble of fashion.
Speaking of completing the ensemble tune into our next post for some more fashion made by pets just for St. Patrick's Day!

So wait, "The King" gets a string of last place finishes and gets a contract extension? You bet your ass he did! In contrast to all the "Quiksilver is done" rumors, it appears the industry leader isn't dead after all and is still in cahoots with the World's Best Surfer ever. Good for Quiksilver, good for Kelly, and at the end of the day, good for the rest of us! On a side note, have you tried Quik's new Diamond Dobbie trunks? Sick…
Quiksilver Extends Kelly Slater's Endorsement Agreement With New 5-Year Deal
Surf Legend's Partnership with Quiksilver Continues with New Projects and Pursuit of 10th Asp World Championship
(Huntington Beach, Calif.) June 8, 2009 – Quiksilver is pleased to announce that it has signed legendary 9-time ASP (Association of Surfing Professionals) World Champion Kelly Slater to a 5-year endorsement contract, extending his sponsorship arrangement with the company and ensuring that the greatest surfer of all time will be sponsored by Quiksilver for his entire competitive career.
Robert B. McKnight, Jr., Chairman of the Board, Chief Executive Officer and President of Quiksilver, Inc., commented, "We couldn't be more pleased than to continue our long-standing relationship with the greatest surfer the sport has ever known. Kelly has been a fantastic spokesman for Quiksilver, a terrific ambassador and promoter for the sport of surfing and a true friend of the company. Kelly continues to work toward broadening the exposure of surfing through projects such as his upcoming IMAX movie, and he's got some great ideas that we will work on together to enhance the marketability of surfing and bring surf competitions to a broader audience in new and innovative ways. Kelly's agreement to accept a significant portion of his compensation in the form of Quiksilver stock demonstrates his confidence in Quiksilver and our future prospects. We are absolutely delighted to continue our partnership with Kelly."
Kelly Slater added, "Quiksilver's been family to me for so long it's hard to remember a time before them. It might not come as a surprise to many people that I've re-signed with them but there have been major transitions in my life and many changes within Quiksilver. It's a long relationship and things often alter over the course of time. In our case, we've got exciting projects that coincide and are still stoked working and surfing together. These next 5 years and beyond will end up being our best together. As we put our minds and efforts together capturing our lifestyle and creating product that reflects this, I see Quiksilver remaining the industry leader. Revisiting what got us there and breaking new ground into some unforeseen areas, it seems things are on the upswing and it's a fresh time again."

Hey there, time traveller!
This article was published 23/10/2010 (2436 days ago), so information in it may no longer be current.
The tasks ahead for the Brandon University Bobcats are surely going to get more challenging, the road ahead bumpier and tougher to navigate.
For now, however, these Bobcats have a winning streak to enjoy.
Kyle Vince hit four three-pointers and scored a game-high 23 points and the Bobcats men's basketball team scored its second straight come-from-behind victory -- although far less dramatic than the one that preceeded it -- in defeating the Thompson Rivers Wolfpack 88-80 in Canada West conference action Saturday at the BU Gymnasium.
"Everyone can play on this team and there's so many guys on our team that can lead," said Vince, who also grabbed eight rebounds. "This weekend it just happened to be me."
O'Brian Wallace also had four threes to finish with 19 points, Jordan Reaves went7-for-8 from the field to score 14 and Isaiah James added 11.
One night after coming from 23 down and beating TRU on a buzzer-beating tip-in, the Bobcats again dug themselves out of an early hole, trailing by six after the first quarter and four at half.
"I think the way we competed being down both games will help us in the long run," BU head coach Gil Cheung said. "We have a lot of new faces but there's some grit behind these guys."
The Wolfpack won't fool anybody into thinking they're a national title contender, but they're a team very much in the same situation as this young Brandon squad: New coach in Scott Clark, new systems and trying to build a new identity.
The Bobcats defensive effort was more consistent and BU held Justin Riggins, TRU's dynamic guard who was guarded largely by 6-foot-6 BU forward Kyrie Coleman, to just 14 points on 5-for-19 shooting. Coleman finished with 12 points of his own.
"Riggins had a great game (Friday) night and I thought a lot of his stuff was he could build up some speed and our guards are a little smaller than he was," Cheung said. "I thought Kyrie's length took that away. Kyrie's not the most physical guy: He's a mini-Kevin Durant; he's long for the CIS and he can keep guys in front of him."
After Matt Pierce hit a three for TRU to tie it at 74 with 2:42 to go, the Bobcats outscored the Wolfpack 14-6 the rest of the way, including a Vince three on the very next possession. BU wouldn't trail again.
"It gives us a lot of confidence going into Regina, which is going to be two tough games, so it says a lot," said Vince, whose team will hit the road to take on the Cougars on Friday. "The chemistry is coming along. Just last week from this week it's amazing."
Kevin Pribilsky led TRU (0-2) with 18 points.

GLENDALE, Ariz. – Grand Canyon swept doubles and picked up three singles wins to top Northern Arizona, 4-3, on Friday afternoon at the Paseo Racquet Club in Glendale. The Lumberjacks, who will play matches on Saturday and Sunday in Tucson, dropped to 2-2 on the season while Grand Canyon won its season opener.
"We struggled to start the match in doubles and couldn't rebound with enough singles victories for a win," said NAU director of tennis Kim Bruno. "We had trouble adjusting to the low altitude and Grand Canyon is a solid team. We weren't able to stay in points long enough to get the win."
The Antelopes got off to a strong start in winning all-three doubles matches. NAU junior Robin Pezzutto and sophomore Patrick Schimmelbauer were narrowly defeated by GCU's Frederic Schoelzel and Stephane Murray at No. 1, 8-7, to pace Grand Canyon to the doubles sweep.
The Lumberjacks easiest singles win came at No. 5, where freshman Dominic Bermudez posted a 6-1, 6-2 victory over Antelope junior Kevin Anderson. Lumberjack junior Josh Brown rallied for a 6-7, 6-4, 1-0 (10-8) win over Jacob Spizman of Grand Canyon at No. 6, while Schimmelbauer won at No. 2 when his opponent retired in the third-set tiebreak. Straight set Grand Canyon wins at No. 1, 3 and 4, however, gave the Antelopes the four necessary points to clinch the victory.
Northern Arizona will face Pacific on Saturday at 10 a.m. in Tucson before battling No. 42 Arizona on Sunday.

real hardwood or engineered???
what are the benefits/disadvantages of these?
i am looking to install above grade so i guess i can use any of them.
also i am looking for any brands/companys that sell hand scraped hickory
the real hard wood i have seen is very expensive and engineerd is quite abit cheaper
I used some in my mother inlaws house that is a laminated flooring. It worked real well. I tried it in my house and I have troubles with it. Seems that the end joints want to seperate. Then again my mother lives with me and she is heavy and likes to scuff her feet when she walks. This may attribute to the problem. My new house will have hardwood, not only because it will wear better and longer but the resale value will be higher. We got our laminated flooring from lumber liqidators. Now maybe other companies have a better laminated product thats better, I do not know, but I will be keeping an eye out on this post to see what others have to say.
Kahrs makes really nice engineered flooring not cheap tho:huh:
Thickness will determine value.
traditionally engineered is more expensive because there is more manufacturing involved.
I am a fan of Biltmore estate from Anderson hardwood.
They have a Hickory that looks amazing.
Olmstead forest plank - canyon ridge - hickory.

text: MONROE, Mich., Sept. 11, 2013 /PRNewswire/ -- La-Z-Boy Incorporated (NYSE: LZB) today announced it intends to acquire three La-Z-Boy Furniture Galleries® stores located in the Las Vegas, NV market, with combined revenue of approximately $11 million. Included in the transaction are two stores in Las Vegas and one in Henderson. The transaction is a result of the planned retirement of the independent dealer, Steve Hueftle, who opened his first La-Z-Boy Furniture Galleries® store in 1988, and the mutually agreed-upon decision that transitioning the stores to a subsidiary of La-Z-Boy Incorporated would be in the best interest of his employees while providing for the greatest stability and continuity of the long-standing business in the Las Vegas market. The three stores will become part of La-Z-Boy's retail operation and will bring the total company-owned store count within the retail segment to 96. The deal is expected to close on September 30, 2013, subject to customary closing conditions. Terms of the transaction are not being disclosed. Kurt Darrow, Chairman, President and Chief Executive Officer of La-Z-Boy, said, "As one of our first independent dealers to open a La-Z-Boy Furniture Galleries® store, Steve is truly a pioneer within our dealer network. Over the course of his 25 years as a store owner and operator, he, along with his wife, Diane, worked to build the La-Z-Boy brand and business in the Las Vegas market and we appreciate their dedication and commitment and wish them all the best in their retirements. We expect the three-store operation to be accretive to our earnings. Separately, we anticipate a smooth transition to our retail team and, most importantly, believe it will be seamless to consumers who have come to rely on La-Z-Boy to provide them with a pleasant and professional shopping experience in a La-Z-Boy Furniture Galleries® store."

A parishioner who is a doctor then informed the police that Freed was beyond medical help.
He was looking for a little girl, the daughter of a parishioner.
The utterance stayed in the parishioner's soul, sounding solemnly on.
A clergyman cannot make the burial of a parishioner conditional on the payment of a fee.
You must remember that my father is a parishioner of Mr. Swancourt's.'
Isn't it our business if he breaks his word with a parishioner of ours?
If a parishioner dying in the small-pox sent to you, would you not go?
Two pounds of fresh yellow butter weekly from the dairy of a parishioner would be appreciated by the parson's family.
He has been telling me how you live up to your duties as neighbor and parishioner.
"I widna care a grain, sir, if it was better grass," responded the parishioner.
