Bad and Good Depend on the Individual Person's Interpretation
by Lama Zopa Rinpoche
Bad and good depend on the individual person's interpretation. In general, if you are able to spend your life collecting more virtue and less negative karma, that's a good life. Even spending half the life this way is quite good. Spending even one quarter of the day creating good karma is better than spending the whole 24 hours creating only negative karma. So today, if you are able to create more virtue than negative karma, that's a good life. Even though you might be exhausted, even though you might have almost died from practicing Dharma, you had a good life today.
Naropa, for example, had to experience the 12 great hardships and the 12 small hardships under the advice of Tilopa. And Marpa would not allow Milarepa to come to teachings and initiations; he received scoldings and beatings only, no sweet words like "you are such a good disciple" or "you have done excellent practice"; he only received Marpa's wrathful aspect. Then Milarepa had to build a nine-story tower by himself, alone, and not just once; he had to tear it down and build it three times. Because of doing these intensive preliminary practices and following exactly his guru Marpa's advice without having any negative thoughts towards him, Milarepa became enlightened in that life.
That's the best life, you see, the best life. The definition of a bad life and a good life is very important, because if you don't know you will be very confused; if your connotation is wrong you will go in the wrong direction. The result of this will be no attainment, no realization. The result will be that the mind is empty.
There is an interpretation of bad and good life according to attachment, according to ego. Then there is an interpretation of bad and good life according to the point of view of Dharma wisdom, the wisdom understanding karma, understanding lam-rim. Of course, they are totally opposite.
The common thing in the world is to follow the interpretation according to attachment. So if one has more success, more wealth, more external development, then that's regarded as a good life: more and more things, more friends, more children, then grandchildren, then their children – the more there is happening, the more successful the life. So that's one view.
Of course, everyone is looking for peace of mind and satisfaction in the heart, but they have no idea how to get it. Their methods are through external development only. Even though they really want peace and satisfaction, because of lack of spiritual education, Dharma education, they don't have methods, they don't have knowledge of practice. So they end up just as the Rolling Stones sang: "I can't get no satisfaction."
So from my point of view, unless you have renounced attachment you will not find satisfaction. You could be living in life-time retreat, or in the monastery or nunnery following the moral disciplines, having sacrificed a lot of the pleasures of this life, a lot of comfort, in order to live in pure morality, but if the mind is still suffering, it's because it didn't renounce attachment, it is not separated from attachment clinging to this life. You didn't make the mind free, so the mind becomes friends with attachment clinging to this life, the mind associates with the thought of the eight worldly dharmas.
Therefore, even if the body is in retreat or in the monastery, the mind cannot enjoy following the moral discipline or the meditation practices. There's no peace, no happiness in the heart. As the mind has become friends with attachment, you cannot give up this life's comfort to practice Dharma. Then it gets difficult to follow the advice of the virtuous friend, it gets difficult to do service for the monastery, for the monks and nuns, and it's difficult to serve other sentient beings.
Even though there is not yet any happiness in the mind because you have the attitude of attachment clinging to this life – you're stuck with that, not with Dharma – nevertheless, your mind is protected from obstacles because you are trying, you are practicing morality. Then you can have great peace and can practice Dharma without obstacles. It's the same with somebody doing long retreat, or someone who's serving the virtuous friend or other sentient beings. What I am saying is that even though your motivation is more stuck with attachment and even though you mightn't experience any happiness in your heart yet, it is still a good life because your practice of morality brings good results, a good rebirth in the next life. Even though your mind is not completely pure, even though the mind is not completely renounced, it is still a good life.
Of course, it takes time for this to happen. You need very intense and continuous meditation, especially on impermanence and death related to karma and the lower realms, and the general suffering of samsara, particularly the lower realms, and the preliminary meditation, the perfect human body, how it is highly useful and difficult to achieve again.
Or you could do the opposite: give up this life and think, "Oh, it didn't make me happy." After many years of practicing and studying Dharma – philosophy, highest tantra, anything that can be explained by qualified teachers – after all that I didn't find happiness, so I'd better try something else." You give up everything, and what you tried to abandon before, for all those years, now you have all of them. You are without rule, without discipline – you become a free guy.
So now you have a lot of physical comfort, wealth, friends and so on and you believe you have enjoyment; in fact it is a hallucination because the uncontrolled mind is the motivation. When you don't think of the motivation and the future karmic result, this new life appears as pleasure. But if you think of the motivation and karmic result, then you realize it is not really a happy life.
What I am saying is that, according to my interpretation, a happy life is when you have a good motivation and your actions bring good results. As I mentioned before, Naropa and Milarepa had so much hardship but it brought a fantastic future, the best future. So that is the best life.
But in the West the interpretation of a good life is whether or not it makes me happy now. Now! This moment. Today. One is involved in the psychology of cherishing oneself, which gives you so much inspiration that you are important. But practicing Dharma is not rejecting yourself, it's actually the best way to take care of yourself.
Practicing renunciation helps you become liberated from samsara, so that's what you need, otherwise you experience suffering again and again, without end. And practicing the right view, emptiness: that's the best way of taking care of yourself because it cuts the root of suffering. And what else do you need? What is better than this? What else is there that is better than this?
Therefore we must rejoice that we have met the precious Buddhadharma, especially lam-rim, the integration of the entire 84,000 teachings of the Buddha, and that without any confusion we can practice and achieve enlightenment.
Besides all this, we are able to do so much service for other sentient beings. Without talking about meditating on the stages of the path, practicing purifying negative karma, collecting merits, without that. Therefore we should rejoice.

With the accident all the rims got buckled the poles bend and napped out and the forks bend. So all of this needed to be fixed before I could use the bed again.
Thank you Bobby's cycles for everything you have done and then a very great thank you to Lohan Oosthuizen and Werner Lategan from Wispernet who paid the bill for the bed being fixed. You guys always help me out when I am in a tight spot. First the internet for Lizanne back home, then the new laptop and now this. Thank you without guys like you Ten million steps for cancer would not have been possible.

Hi I'm Tiff aka Tink to somepeople (not short for tinkerbell)
I'm currently working on 2 things. When I say work I mean plotting out my course of action nothing tackled yet. I'm working on a Captain Rex costume. Which I haven't decided to do a normal male version or make a female version. I also have been throwing around the idea of tackling Aurra Sing. My Cpt Rex won't be hardcore it's more of a budget and trial and error thing. But hopefully when I figure out Aurra Sings costume down to the details I can make it good enough for the 501st. I look forward to getting advice and making friend with people that share the same interest. You have no idea how hard it is to find people around here that like to rant about Star Wars facts let alone make costumes.

Prior to this past weekend's epic Hardrock 100, I had the good fortune of watching the 'Voices of Hardrock' video series published on iRunFar.com. Evan Honeyfield did a wonderful job interviewing many people and capturing the essence of Hardrock with this six-part series. Nice work Evan. One night while lying in bed I watched part 1 of the series which highlighted many competitors and centered around the theme of 'adventure.' Good stuff indeed, but I grew more and more skeptical as I watched. Why? Well, one of the interviewees (Mark Heaphy) mentioned his experience with hallucinations during Hardrock. "Yeah right." I said to Annie. "I'm so sick of hype and hyperbole'." Picture a condescending sniff and a self-righteous look. My eyes rolled as I scoffed at the melodrama. (Sorry Mark!)
I knew what he was talking about. (Or so I thought) What he was actually describing were mere thoughts of hallucinations. He really meant: "Man… that rock over there sure looks like Uncle Frank." or: "That tree looks like a person." I'm trying to make the distinction between thinking you saw something and actual vivid hallucinations. Me? I'd been there. After-all, I'm the dude who swears he saw a baby elephant on a run 5 years ago. (Turns out it was a porcupine and I'm just a moron). I thought this was just another case of sensationalism regarding ultrarunning. My last thought as I finished watching part 1 was: "Nice work Evan… really hyping this thing up… entertaining for sure."
Turns out, not only am I a smidgen too cynical, skeptical, negative, and self-absorbed, ("I've never experienced that, so… it can't happen!"), but I was also wrong. I experienced true hallucinations while pacing my good friend Tim Parr this past weekend at the Hardrock 100. I picked up Parr late in the afternoon (4:00pm) in Ouray at mile 43 of the race. The plan was for me to run with him throughout the night and hand him off to another friend and pacer (Jerry) at Cunningham Gulch (Mile 93) just before sunrise. No problem, right? Parr was in good position, but started to suffer on the climb up Handies Peak. He rallied a few times from mile 60 to mile 90, but generally slowed down considerably as he dealt with significant stomach issues. Parr is one tough dude and his willingness to keep 'marching-on' while suffering furthered his innate toughness. As we climbed 0ut of the Sherman aid station and the clock rolled past 2:00am, I (his loyal friend and night-time pacer) began to fall asleep. It was subtle at first; a few yawns, a little stumble, a head-nod, a bobble… but as we staggered to Pole Creek it was obvious that the coke and the food was not keeping me awake. I tried to 'up' my encouragement of Parr, thinking that it would help me stay awake. This was not to be and through this 'sparsely-marked' section of the course, we walked slowly over the cross-country sections, occasionally stumbled on the trail, and doggedly hunkered down for the last push before sunrise.
As 3:30am clicked by on my watch I stumbled more and more frequently. I never completely fell over, but I was falling asleep, catching myself, walking on, falling asleep, catching myself, gasping for air, marching on. This cycle continued for a while as I tried to keep Parr eating and encouraged him to keep moving. He was alert (or so I thought) but I was a walking zombie… a walking zombie that was definitely falling asleep as I jogged, shuffled, walked, and pushed on in support of Parr. My eyes closed and a vivid flash of a yellow school bus with 40 kids sitting in the seats jumped into my brain. I thought for sure there was a school bus just up on the hillside to the right of us. This sight lasted for 3 or 4 seconds before I gasped and my eyes flung open to the light of my head-lamp again. "Whoa, I've got to get my %&!@ together." I bit my lip harder, pinched the skin on my neck, shouted encouragement at Parr, and kept moving. My eye-lids closed again and I saw a pair of sunglasses that I was about to step on. I flung my eyes opened, convinced I had just crushed a pair of $200 Oakley sunglasses. Nope… just a couple rocks. More hallucinations came and went. I saw skulls popping out of boulders. I was convinced there were multiple styrofoam cups from Sonic (fastfood place) (You know the cups I'm talking about.. the ones that you can order a 64oz slushy in!) on the trail. Nope. I reached out at the chest-high plants and bushes next to the trail… absolutely sure they were trekking poles. I longed for sleep. I snapped awake. This cycle went on for quite some time and Parr had no idea. Truly, the only clue that I was struggling was the increased frequency of my stumbling, which by 4:30am had become dangerous. I would wander off course, only to stumble, snap awake, and begin talking to Parr again.
My final hallucination that I remember, was a vivid picture of my hand brushing the tops of corn plants on a sunny day. I was reaching to the front and the side, touching the plants and bushes by the side of the trail. I thought for sure I had become a farmer. (After the fact, the image that came to mind is that of Maximus (Russell Crowe) as he is wading through the wheat fields in the movie 'Gladiator') (These scenes from the movie were the times when he was fading in and out of death). I gasped as my eyes snapped opened. I was disheartened to see that indeed I was not farming on a sunny day in Iowa, but rather still in the dark of night at Hardrock. Once I snapped awake from this vision, I could see the light of the Pole Creek aid station at mile 80. I focused on this light, encouraged Parr, and we made it. Parr took a short rest here (10 minutes) as I chugged coffee and ate a few peanut M&Ms. The sun was now rising and the land was growing brighter. With the growing light came the end of my weird hallucinations. Vivid. Real. Slightly scary. Mostly annoying. A sign that I was desperately sleepy. Perhaps now I won't be so skeptical in the future when I hear of other people's experiences.
Parr? Timmy Parr did just fine and did not suffer any hallucinations. He stayed positive despite a deteriorating race, toughed it out, and finished in 31 hours and 50 minutes, for 17th place. Nice work Parr. I only hope my lack of preparedness for pacing Parr all night did not slow him down or cost him anything. I feel really bad for struggling with tiredness so much that night and generally I'm just glad we didn't get lost out there. Parr is a good friend and a tough competitor, and I am honored to have paced him for 48 miles. He'll bounce back with many fine performances to come. As for his pacer? Well… he needs to go to bed. Thanks for reading. DC

Tue, Jan 15, 2013
By Molly Peterson
Today, Los Angeles County officials will pitch a new plan to cut pollutants by capturing rain closer to where it falls -- and the county's flood control district wants property owners to pay for it.
An ambitious proposal would tax every one of the county's 2.2 million property owners and use the revenue to capture, filter and reuse the stormwater before it ever hits the complex storm sewer system that twists and turns under Los Angeles County's nine watersheds. County supervisors hold a public hearing Tuesday to hear questions about and challenges to the proposal.
Los Angeles County regularly is home to some of the dirtiest beaches in the state, where state testing reveals bacteria and other pollutants. After a winter rain, the region's surfers and swimmers know to stay out of the ocean. That's because rainwater traveling through storm drains carries pollution with it.
Trash in the Los Angeles River is a visible reminder of that pollution. A county clean-up crew converges on an industrial site in Long Beach, near the river's mouth.
A metal boom reaches out, and an arm across the river to grab debris carried along by runoff before it hits the beach. Crew chief David Duncan says winter rain's first flush is the worst. This is the second. Duncan's crew plucks a dripping mattress out of the boom and tosses it in a dumpster.
"It's not too bad," Duncan says, almost cheerfully. "It doesn't look like we got any dogs and cats in here today. We usually end up with 3 or 4 dogs, and 4 to 5 cats. Soccer balls are the number-one ball that comes down."
Pollution isn't just a problem for the western part of L.A. County. Inland waters are fouled by storm runoff too. At Whittier Narrows Recreation Area, boats, swimmers and fishermen should crowd manmade Legg Lake. But geese, honking along the lawn, are our only company.
L.A. County public works engineer Hector Bordes walks along the lake. He says water here violates federal standards for heavy metals. "You can't go in the water. It's highly unfortunate," he says. "So this is an example of a water body that needs some work."
Under the latest set of stormwater rules, regulators could hit the county with millions of dollars in fines for exceeding pollution limits, both along the coast and inland. It's a longstanding problem at Legg Lake, where a decades-old storm drain carries runoff from the nearby 710 freeway directly into the lake.
Bordes says the system was designed with now-outdated principles. "Years ago, if there was a flooding problem we just put a bunch of pipes underneath the ground, get those pipes connected to the rivers and get the water out of there," Bordes says. "Now we think totally differently."
The county says it wants to see stormwater runoff as something valuable, a potential resource for irrigation and even drinking water. That logic drives the new tax proposal, as does an increasing threat of federal regulatory action.
The county would spend half the money on regional pollution controls, use a small part for water testing and give the rest of it to cities. "What this program, if it moves forward could do is, we could take that water, clean it up, come up with some really great projects for the community, and we can put that water back into the ground," Bordes says.
Single family homes would pay around $50 a year. Big box stores with acres of parking lot, as much as $11,000. The program penalizes pavement. The tax is based on the size of each parcel and the amount of hard surface covering the property.
Among the biggest critics of the tax are public school districts. In every neighborhood, schools include parking lots and playgrounds: hard surfaces on which rain bounces like red rubber balls at recess.
Under the proposed tax, L.A. County schools would have to come up with $14 million a year from budgets already stretched thin.
Los Angeles Unified School District facilities chief Mark Hovatter says schools deserve credit for working on the problem. Hovatter points out three layers of stormwater controls at Playa Vista Elementary that have helped the school earn a LEED Gold certification. "Through downspout filtering, every collection basin we have has a filter, and then we retain water before it flows into the system so we don't overflood the streets," Hovatter says. "There's a filtering system set up in there."
County officials are talking with schools about using parcel tax money for campus retrofits. But schools aren't the only ones protesting. Private businesses argue that just because they're paved doesn't mean they're contributing to the runoff pollution problem.
Even supporters of the county's new emphasis on green infrastructure are asking questions about the proposed plan. LA Waterkeeper and the Natural Resources Defense Council have sued to encourage enforcement of Clean Water Act standards. The groups have backed regional rules that promote controls that capture, filter and reuse stormwater. But NRDC attorney Noah Garrison remains cautious about the benefits of the proposed parcel tax. He's concerned the county's plans aren't specific enough to cut pollution.
"We really don't know what the money is ultimately going to go towards," Garrison points out. "And until we see a clearer version of the selection criteria and how they're going to put this program in place, we just really don't know what impact this program will have."
The Los Angeles County Board of Supervisors is likely to take the first step toward the parcel tax by approving a ballot to send to property owners. Officials say they hope to tally up the vote by mail in March, and collect revenue beginning this summer.

You can do it yourself. Have you done any suspension work before? The rear BMW suspension is easy enough a blind 5 year old with the correct size ratchet or air wrench tip could take it apart. There's a write up around here some where. I'll take a peak and see if I can find it if no one else does by them time I finish studying for a test tommorow.

First off, Thanx again to all the above who offered me advice on what to look for when test driving the '94 325i conv. last Saturday. I did manage to go for that test drive, but was disappointed to find the following things that gave me grave concern.
1) Brand new top did not go down without assistance...they salelady even pointed that it was unusual for the top to need assistance and she chalked it up to the brand new top...she said once the creases form/it breaks in, then it should fold down on its own. I could be wrong here, but I don't believe her. What do you guys think?
2) Right side rear window and side window did not join when rolled all the way up (1" gap at the top). I tried to roll it down and up again a few times, but to no avail. This seemed like it may be an expensive repair or difficult to do on my own...not sure.
3) Driver's seat did not appear in bad shape, but very uncomfortable to sit on during my test drive of only about 5 miles or so. It appears to me that the padding must be worn out b/c there was some kind of bar/support along the left side of the bottom seat cushion and it was stabbing my left leg during the entire ride...not all that noticeable when I first sat down, but darn near painful after a few miles of driving. Moving my leg around did not make any difference. Is this a common problem? If so, approx. how much $$ is it to re-stuff the front seat at an apolstry shop?
4) Lastly, I was less than impressed with its power. I had read that the 325i had plenty of get up and go, especially at 3500 rpms and above. However, for normal driving, I noticed that I barely reached 3500 rpms before shifting gears (this would be my normal day-to-day driving habits). It ran smooth and didn't necessarily feel underpowered or anything drastic like that, but this was a std transmission and I was expecting a much peppier motor. This 1994 325i only has 72K miles on it, so I wonder if its that particular car or do most 325i cars feel that way??? Any thoughts? If so, I may start looking at a bigger model 3 series...like the 328 or M series? Honestly, I don't want to go into debt to buy a used car, so I would rather get an older model (94 or newer) 325i conv. in good shape instead of dropping the big bucks on a 328i or M series conv.
PS - As a result of the above findings and the salelady's position of not negotiating on the price at all, I chose not to buy this car. So I'm still looking for now. There seems to be lots of 3 series conv. on the market, so I'm sure I'll find one I like eventually.
Happy trails...

I was in the same position as yourself. We test drove a 325icA before we got my 328is, and we were less than impressed with the vehicle, even though it was in good shape. It didn't seem to have much pick-up at all, the car shook and rattled like crazy (apparently all the convertibles do that) despite being in great shape and having low mileage. I would highly, highly suggest a 328, I don't think you'll be disappointed. And an M would be even better.

They're always after me O- type blood!
March and rainbows will never be the same again : /
I never got the "needs salt" joke.
I would love to see how this shirt would go over if a little kid wore it to school lol
This will definitely stay on the charts for a while, what with St. Patrick's day right around the corner! Congrats, Lucky!
oh...oh that's not right.
Well... That's morbidly cute
Marshmallow Powar! Activate!
Yay more EC's!
What are the odds they pick something from the current derby? Slim I know.. gimmie Drakxxx double feature! lol
And I thought they smelled bad... on the outside!
Hah! Reminds me of my current entry!
St. Patrick's Day? Just as planned.
I'm pretty sure unicorns don't have opposable thumbs
It'd be interesting to see some bloody movies turn all their gruesome death scenes into rainbows and sparkles. I think the FCC would approve!
I knew it was a bad sign when the unicorn got a taste for rainbows.
I always thought the "luck of the Irish" was good luck. Guess not.
Bodacious! More EC's! How many EC shirts are there going to be? All week this week too?
Also, what do you think a leprechaun tastes like? I'd wager it's whisky and potato.
Umm, why is there not an apple in the leprechaun's mouth? This is not a true feast!
2 weeks of EC's?? Please please please???
Someone notify the next of kin, which I'm assuming would be Toucan Sam and Count Chocula.
this shirt is just wrong on so many levels
I always imagined unicorns as herbivores. This proves me wrong! They're actually "lepravores."
First sucker: streetwalkincheetah
that's right. i believe i said once this is about the only unicorn shirt i'd wear. congrats, lucky. i'll be sportin' this year round, but most definitely on st. patty's day.
I'll never be able to eat Lucky Charms again...
Would the plural form of 'Pesagus' be 'Pegasii'?
Silly Unicorn, Leprechauns are for...eh, maybe not at that.
Does this mean another week of EC's? Please Please Please? Don't make me abandon all hope of proudly displaying the tranny peahen on my chest just yet!
Hey, another EC!
Congrats Lucky!
who will wear this! BAD, BAD, BAD. I wouldnt even want to scare my inner-self like this.
chrisprender wrote:Someone notify the next of kin, which I'm assuming would be Toucan Sam and Count Chocula.
I don't get the shirts you post everyday please explain....
Omelets made great YES
I wanted this shirt SO BAD. You have no idea how much I wanted it.
I even ordered mine with express shipping so I can wear it on Unofficial this coming Friday. Yay!
The shirt is missing a few of the charms.
Hearts, stars n' horseshoes, clovers and blue moons, pots of gold n' rainbows and the red balloons!
I use to love that commercial as a child.
Cereal Killer!
Betcha if he had a four-leaf clover instead of the three-leaf on his hat, this wouldn't have happened.

If there are, I promise I'll buy them all, just out of solidarity.

If that's the case then unicorns hunted leprechauns to extinction and then all died of starvation. A cautionary tale against over hunting or something?

Billy Gladstone: Legendary Percussionist, Innovative Inventor, and Gretsch Drum Ambassador.
Gretsch's first endorsement superstar, Billy Gladstone, was a rare musical "triple threat." Not only was Gladstone one of the most respected percussionists of his era (many say the best snare drum player who ever lived), he was also a creative inventor with over 20 U.S. patents to his name, as well as a respected instrument builder.
Born in Rumania on December 15, 1892 into a musical family, Gladstone's English-born father supervised Rumania's Government Band. At age seven, Gladstone joined his father's band more for comedic purposes than for his musicianship. Although the little Gladstone drew laughs on stage struggling to play a big baritone horn, over time he learned to master the horn and other brass instruments as well. (more…)

Recipe by Lori Ross
2/3 cup lukewarm water (105–115°F)
1 (1/4-oz) package active dry yeast
1 tsp sugar
2 tbsps olive oil
1 2/3 cups unbleached all-purpose flour plus additional for dusting
1/4 cup yellow cornmeal
1 1/2 tsps salt
Make dough: Stir together water, yeast, and sugar in a large bowl and let stand until foamy, about 10 minutes. (If mixture doesn't foam, discard and start over.) Stir in oil, flour, cornmeal, and table salt, then stir until a dough forms.
Knead on a floured surface, dusting with more flour as needed to prevent dough from sticking, until smooth and elastic, 5 to 10 minutes (dough will be moist).
Put dough in an oiled deep bowl and turn to coat with oil. Let dough rise, covered with plastic wrap, in a warm place until doubled in bulk, about 1 hour.
Form dough into pizzas ahead of time: Punch down dough and divide into 6 balls. Roll out 1 ball of dough 1/8 inch thick (about 7 inches in diameter) on a lightly floured surface. Brush off excess flour, then transfer dough to a lightly oiled baking sheet and cover surface of dough completely with plastic wrap. Roll out remaining balls of dough in same manner, covering with plastic wrap and stacking rounds. Wrap baking sheet with more plastic wrap. Chill dough until firm, about 2 to 4 hours or overnight.

April 22, 2014
BIRMINGHAM, Ala. -- UAB head football coach Bill Clark spent time discussing his first spring as the Blazers' head man at a media luncheon held in Bartow Arena's Green and Gold Room on Tuesday.
The Blazers, who had to cancel their spring game due to inclement weather on April 18, completed 14 practices this spring. The squad now looks ahead to summer workouts leading up to fall practice and the Aug. 30 season opener against Troy at Legion Field.
For more information on the UAB football team, follow the Blazers on Twitter (@UAB_Football). For more on all Blazer sports teams follow the official Twitter account of UAB Athletics (@UABAthletics).
Head Coach Bill Clark Press Conference Quotes (April 22, 2014)
Opening comments
"I was really pleased with the attitude and effort from the players when dealing with a new staff. From January to today, the improvements we have created include the understanding of urgency we are looking for and gaining the idea of what our practices should look like. We have referred often to the number of injuries we had going into this spring, and I think we got as much as we possibly could from those guys. They got some work in and we were able to create a lot of depth. We have come a long way in establishing our depth chart going into this summer. We do have a lot of transfers and high schoolers coming in, so hopefully we have set a standard on where we want to go in the future."
On the depth coming into the fall
"I think it will look a lot different. I do feel like we have a depth chart coming out of this spring and as these guys get inserted in, we will see where they fit. There are a lot of older guys and we have made plans for players to come in and compete. We told our players they should still be ahead because they have been here, they understand the system, and have lifted and trained with the staff. I think a lot of those guys will have to adjust and get used to the tempo we practice at and what we are asking for in the weight room. We're excited about the talent coming in, but we do feel the guys that are already here have a leg up on the incoming players."
On selling the program to the players
"I think that is a constant reminder anywhere you go, more so here mainly because of the lack of success within the program the past few years. Players are going to look at what our track record has been and where we come from. I always say the proof is in the pudding. We can talk this big game, but do we work, train and believe like that? We are having our exit meetings right now and players are seeing it, and that is the urgency we talk about every day. What is today going to be about? Did we win this day? Did we get better? We don't just believe to win, we expect it."
On the improvements made defensively
"I don't know if I'm ever satisfied, but I have seen improvements on our defense. Getting off blocks, running to the football and tackling have improved. I think we saw our guys, just specific to tackling, improve immeasurably. We have got to keep taking those steps and get a few more guys in here. We need some guys to get well as we start workouts in May, but we have improved."
On players buying into the new coaching staff
"I really think the guys bought in. I think that started with us in the weight room and with the speed work. I say that all the time because I believe that how you train is how you play. We want to be experts in that. We've made huge changes in our weight room and in our nutrition. We've made changes in how we take care of our guys and how we equip them. I am not saying that was bad in the past, but we want to be great in these areas and I think they have seen that. I think that transitioned into spring. I don't believe we had a bad day in the spring. I think we had a couple of days where we were not as urgent as I would like. We are trying to create a mindset where every day is like game day. I think that is what our guys are beginning to understand. I have seen it from a "buy-in" standpoint. I am really excited about that."
On the other teams in Conference USA
"I try to take some time every day and watch a different team, from the offense to the defense to special teams. From my brief time in the Sun Belt, I feel that I am familiar with some of the teams that have transitioned into our conference. I think there are a lot of very good teams. It is daunting. You look at some of the teams that we have to play, how well coached they are and the effort from their staffs. There are some great offenses in this league and some well-coached teams. We have a lot of work to do and it is what we work for every day to compete with these guys."
On the quarterbacks during the spring
"One of the best things they did was get ahead on our offense. They adapted to it pretty quickly. We want our offense to be simple for our players to understand, yet complex for the defense. I think that is where the coaching is right now. You have all these different facets to being a quarterback: how you throw the ball, understanding the offense, the physical demands of taking hits, the multi-purpose aspect of "run-and-throw," and leading the team. I've been pleased with the guys we've got and we have a couple of more guys coming during the summer to add to that mix."
On the expectations of fans
"Everybody wants to hear about commitment. Are we committed to this program? And, I believe they are going to see that commitment. They are going to see it through the upgrades we are making to our facilities. Hopefully, they are going to see a great product on the field. We all want the wins, but there is a lot more that goes into making a great team, specifically training, facilities and nutrition. We have made a commitment to these aspects. Our guys have seen this and I think it has helped them buy in. We are in a great location, so we have a lot to sell. I think they are excited about where we are currently, but I want to see that in the fall."

Collect your choice of gallery quality Giclée, or fine art prints custom trimmed by hand in a variety of sizes with a white border for framing.
This photo was taken in an area southwest of Atlanta, GA in an area near Newnan, GA. It has become overgrown and forgotten with time. This type of area fascinates me because there is a beauty is the lost and forgotten areas that were so vital and useful at one time. What made the people stop? Why did this place get abandoned and left to the weeds and Kudzu vines of Georgia?

Just to mention, equipment has in the description;
"Maximum Gem Level"
Take that in consideration before socketing.

Teaching you how to add gems to your gear.
How To
Since this seems to be a frequently asked question, I figured a helpful guide with pictures was in order. Hope this helps!
First, when you want to Socket something, like a weapon, make sure that you have all the necessary items--including the item, socketing rods, and the appropriate gem. Keep in mind that different gems only fit in certain items. (i.e. Weapons, body, hands, feet, head, accessories, et cetera)
They also give different properties:
And in different amounts depending on the gems level, such as the Ruby Gem:
*Ruby Gem Lvl 1 gives +2 PATK
*Ruby Gem Lvl 2 gives +4 PATK
*Ruby Gem Lvl 3 gives +7 PATK
*Ruby Gem Lvl 4 gives + 12 PATK
and so on for each respective gem and level...
After you are sure that you have all the correct items, head to your inventory and click on the "Socket" button on the right side of the window.
This will bring up the socketing screen. Here, click and drag the item to be socketed--in this picture, the bow. Drop it into the equipment slot.
Now--and here seems to be the part where everyone gets tripped up--you click on the (\) as indicated in the following picture. You'll now see a socketing rod pop up in the bottom box; note here that it will tell you how many socketing rods it will take to open a socket in this item. If the number is red, then you do not have enough socketing rods. Now, click the "Add Socket" button to open this socket.
Now that you have a free socket up, click and drag the desired--and correct--gem to the open socketing slot and drop it there.
This will prompt a window to open to confirm that you want to socket this gem to the item. If you do, click yes. If you have made a mistake, click no.
If you have chosen "Yes", then your newly socketing equipment will have a new set of stats at the bottom of the stat screen when you hover over!
Please keep in mind that with each new socket that you open after the first, the amount of Socketing Rods needed will increase. Happy upgrading! v-n.n
: As commented on below, each weapon does have a gem level requirement to be used. Below are examples of two bows of two different levels, each showing their respective gem level restrictions:
Lvl 1 Bow has a Lvl 2 Gem Restriction
Lvl 31 Bow has a Lvl 6 Gem Restriction

Adding extra stats to your gear through enchantment.
How To
This seems to be the most common way of enhancing your gear--and the easiest, I think--since Elite monsters as well as bosses often drop a few of these every time you defeat one. In this case, though, the enchanting dust or crystal work on all types of gear, excluding your wings, insignia, mount, or item mall bought costumes.
To begin, make sure that you have the item to be enchanted in your Inventory, not equipped on your character. Also make sure that you have the appropriate level of enchanting material. (for example, inferior magic dust is for gear lvls 1-30, while magic dust is for gear lvls 31-60) You can't enchant with the wrong material. Also note that you can buy BETTER enchanting materials from the Item Mall under the 'Upgrades' tab. These are also lvl appropriate.
Once you have everything, start by clicking on the 'Enchant' button in your Inventory, shown in the picture below. A window will pop out to the side of your inventory.
Then proceed to drag the desired gear to be upgraded to the Equipment box in the center.
Now you need to begin dragging your enchanting material into the four boxes surrounding the equipment. You do NOT need 4 of the enchanting material to upgrade
but you have increased chances of success if you do
. Inferior magic dust is used on the Lvl 1 Cedar Bow below.
Here, there are a few things you need to notice after you have moved the enchanting materials over and are almost ready to attempt the enchantment.
The Yellow circles indicate your enchanting materials.
The Red box indicates what your stats on the equipment will look like IF the enchantment is successful.
The Red circle is the most important. Here it will show first your chances of successfully enchanting this item. Directly below that it will show
how much it costs
to attempt the enchantment.
Please note that Enchanting the item is not guaranteed and you do NOT get your money/enchanting items back if you fail. However, the Equipment involved will NOT DISAPPEAR if you fail.
When you are ready to give it a shot, click the 'Enchant' button on the Enchant screen. Cross your fingers! If the enchantment is a success it will look like the image below.
If the Enchantment was unsuccessful, the box will instead flash red and the message will instead say that the attempt has failed. Sorry, but try again!
If you item has been successfully upgraded, there are some things to note that have changed!
The name of your item will now be--as shown here-- Item +1 or more if you have successfully enchanted multiple times! The item enchant screen will tell you what the stats will look like under "After" if you successfully upgrade again. But be aware that the higher + you have on your item, the more money it is going to cost and the lower you chances.
Also very noteworthy,
after the 4th successful upgrade--Item +4--if you fail, the item + will DROP.
But it will not drop below a +3, so you won't lose all of your progress.
Happy Enchanting!

Breaking down unneeded items.
How To
On to Disenchanting! This section doesn't require too much explanation and is fairly simple. Note that to Disenchant an item,
it must say "Disenchantable"
under the item's stats/description. I believe that the items must be of Green quality or above to be disenchanted--correct me if I'm wrong. (:
To begin: make sure that you have the item to be disenchanted in your inventory. Keep in mind that
any items you Disenchant WILL disappear
, so don't use anything you want to keep. (: Then click on the Disenchant tab on the right side of your inventory window to get started.
For me at least, the Disenchant window always pops up
my inventory window, so let's move that out of the way and put our two windows side by side. Now you can click and drag the item to the Disenchant box. Notice there are multiple slots to Disenchant multiple items at a time. When you have everything ready, click the Disenchant button.
A dialogue box should appear asking "Are you sure you want to Disenchant this item?" If you have made a mistake, press "No". If all is well, press "Yes"!
Something like this will appear in your inventory after Disenchantment and your Disenchant box will disappear. Note that the Soul Crystal here is 1 of 3 apparent types that you can receive from Disenchant. (i.e. Soul Crystal IV, Soul Crystal V, Soul Crystal VI) The use of these crystals has not been made clear yet, but save them! It is hinted that they will be used to feed your mount.
There is also the
of obtaining Soul Root Crystals when you Disenchant purple gear. These crystals are used for upgrading your Soul.

Item Synthesis
Creating gear, stat potions, and better gems from materials.
How To
Item Synthesis
On to a feature that you will be using A LOT in this game if you want to get/make certain items. Sure, you could always buy them off of someone else, but it's cheaper to collect the stuff yourself and make your own things; it just requires a little extra time!
Step 1, as usual, is to go to your inventory window and click on the Item Synthesis button on the right side. This will pop up your synthesis window--usually in front of my inventory in my game. Just move that to the side so we can see what we're doing. (:
My Item Synthesis screen automatically starts me at the Gem screen. You can chance to any other type by clicking on the Category section--where it says Gems. To see what you currently have the materials to make, go to the Sub-category that says "All Available". This is a quick and easy list to see what you can make with what you have. n.n In the example below, I can synthesis a
Flawed Emerald Gem
Click on the available item--her the Flawed Emerald Gem in the yellow box--to select and see:
What components you'll need--in red. (Here, I only need 3 Chipped Emerald Gems to synthesize 1 Flawed Emerald Gem)
And what the cost and chance of success will be--in blue. (I will have to spend 72 copper to synthesize with a 100% chance of success)
Please keep in mind that while the Gem in this example does not have a chance of failing, other items like Ethereal Gear
When you're ready to give it a shot, hit the Synthesize button in orange.
Now, at the bottom where the price to synthesize and the chance of success are located, you will see a red loading bar while your character attempts the synthesis. When the bar fills up, the attempt is over.
If your attempt was successful, you will see your newly created item in your inventory.
However, if you attempt was unsuccessful, not only will you
not get the item you were trying for
but you also
will lose all of the crafting materials and the money you spent on the attempt.

Frageron Forge
How to Forge and Upgrade the Legendary Weapon.
How To
Frageron Forge
This section will be slowly updated as time goes on. Upon completion, my goal is to--hopefully--have an in depth guide on the steps and materials needed not only to initially create the Celestial Fragarach weapon but also to upgrade it per each lvl.
We begin now with its creation and what you will need:
Creating the Celestial Fragarach
GM_Hadouken wrote:
How to receive the Celestial Fragarach?
Three main components are required in obtaining the Celestial Fragarach:
One Fragarach Mold
Purchased from Starglade's Weapons Vendor, Remmington, OR obtained by completing "The Obedient Soldier" - a main quest initially received at level 30. (The quest will be confirmed by the Developers.)
Five Frageron Soul Essence
Drops from Revenants Vault (Nightmare) bosses.
One Ice Shard
Drops from Vega the Mad in Revenant's Vault.
The above quote was taken from the
Basic Game Guide
First, as mentioned above, you need to first acquire your Fragarach Mold. If you didn't acquire it via the lvl 30 Quest--because you completed it before the update in which it first appeared--you will need to buy it from Remmington, Starglade's Weapons Vendor.
Once you have the mold appropriate for your class, you will need to acquire the other parts: 5 Frageron Soul Essence...
And 1 Ice Shard...
Once you have all of the necessary materials in your inventory, click the
Frageron Forge
button in your inventory screen to bring up the Forge.
The Forge screen will show up and should automatically put in the Fragarach Mold in your inventory in the appropriate slot. Now it will show the required materials--what I have boxed in Red below--and it will also show what the weapon will look like after forged where it says "Upgrades To". This part has a 100% success rate, so Forge away when you're ready!
A Required Enchantment Level, as mentioned under Upgrade in the forge, is not yet needed for this part of the process. Also note, for the time being, the Forge says that you need 2 Ice Shards, but you only need 1 Ice Shard.)
When you are successful in an upgrade, you will get this screen:
Go to your inventory and your new (Earthen)Celestial Fragarach Weapon will be waiting for you!

Ukrainian Orthodox League:
2012 ŌĆ£Souper BowlŌĆØ Sunday!
What a truly holy and blessed Nativity many of us celebrated.┬Ā We were surrounded by family and friends who honored us by participating in the Divine Services at church, followed by much food, laughter and caroling in our homes.┬Ā
Unfortunately, not everyone is as lucky as we are.┬Ā In Ukraine, there are many elderly and poor who need our assistance just to have the basics for survival.┬Ā This is where St. AndrewŌĆÖs Society comes in.
St. AndrewŌĆÖs Society is an integral part of the Ukrainian Orthodox Church of the USA and has, for the past number of years, been providing food for the elderly and poor in Ukraine.┬Ā This undertaking is no small task and would not be successful if not for the kindness of the many individuals who donate most generously, thus allowing St. AndrewŌĆÖs Society to continue its much needed and appreciated programs in Ukraine.
Once again, itŌĆÖs time for us to help.┬Ā The Ukrainian Orthodox League is asking for the assistance of parishes, UOL chapters and individuals to share their many blessing with those in need.┬Ā Make the time to fund raise within your parishes, speak to your friends and neighbors of the great need and the work of St. AndrewŌĆÖs Society.┬Ā Encourage everyone to contribute SOMETHING.┬Ā Teach your children to care for those who have less than they do by explaining to them just how hard life is for some people.
In many parishes, the Junior UOL members will be holding a ŌĆ£Souper Bowl SundayŌĆØ collection.┬Ā Give generously!
Please, click here to see the┬Āposter and┬Āutilize it in your parish community in order to spread the word about this wonderful minisry of the Ukrainian Orthodox League of the Ukrainian Orthodox Church of the USA.┬Ā

What to do in Israel while on vacation?
Well, to put it simply, I'm being dragged on a vacation to Israel by my parents. My grades are'nt good enough to get a scholarship, and they're the ones with the funding, so I don't have much choice. (Being under the age of 18 also contributes to my decision. Or, more accurately, the fact that they're legally able to tie me up and stuff me in the back of the car.)
So, what in the bloody blazes do I do in Israel?
My folks have planned many trips to assorted ruins and museums, including Petra, which is, unless I misread the map, located in Jordan. Are'nt there a lot of Hamas activists there? (Too bad Prime Minister Sharon died; he actually managed to make steps twoards peace. Wether this was just preliminary brain damage leading up to his stroke is up for debate, but hey, peace is peace!)
However, having travelled with my parents for extended periods before, I can honestly say that I don't give a pair of fetid dingoe's kidneys for the things that interest them. While they like Monet and Masada, I prefer things that are a bit more high-tech, or socially involved.
I should also mention that, despite my inherently geeky nature, I'm a reasonably skilled spoken-word poet. (I competed at this year's Youth Speaks slam poetry nationals in NY.) To put it simply, providing the audience can speak english, I can hold my own at an open mic.
We'll be staying in Tel Aviv for most of our three week trip, which begins at the end of the week. Any suggestions?
Also, if anyone on the forum happens to live in the area...mind letting me listen to some of the stuff you've built? I'm still trying to decide what type of speaker to build, and I need some help with my Gainclone.

I dont mind you asking but avoid mixing politics in this thread.
Never been to Israel but I think there is a lot to learn in that ancient country.
Enjoy your trip.

I apologize for the comments on Sharon. However, my comments on Hamas are more personal safety oriented than anything else; flying shrapnel does not make exceptions based on political affiliation, and I enjoy living.

When our son was 16 we took him to a visiting Rembrant exhibition His attitude and body language was not unlike your feelings above. We stood him in front of "Self Portrait" and said look this it is over 400 years old and it's as fresh and alive as if done yesterday. His response was "So"
A year later he was sent (kicking and screaming ) on a 12 month youth exchange to Mexico where he discovered ancient history. He was blown away and now loves reading and watching documentories on the development of civilization. He has been back to Mexico 3 times and every trip made time to visit a different historic site.
In time you too will change

I visited there in 1971. I was 16. It was an amazing experience. But, of course, I wasn't with my parents...
There's more history per square meter there than any other place on Earth. That's really worth appreciating.

Despite my age and apparent ignorance, I'm familar with the area's history in relatively decent detail. I'm familiar with the history of the Kotel, the Dome of the Rock, and Masada, amongst other locations of great holiness and past violence. I just really could'nt care less about them, having studied them for a mandated period of several years during a stint at a Jewish private school. The temperatures, which often reach 105 degrees or more this time of year, are also a major incentive to stay where it's air-conditioned. (Masada is on the top of a mesa. Mesas get HOT in the summer.)
My comments on art museums are not so much an issue of my dislike of art as my dislike of my parents, who are perhaps the least pleasant travelling companions this side of Alpha Centauri. Although I appreciate art, I lack the concentration necessary to appreciate the same piece of art for hours on end. In additon, while my parents are fascinated primarily with realism and still lifes, I prefer more modern art, especially the art deco movement. I'm also a reasonably proficient metalworker in my own right, and study art of my own free will.
Although I do find historical sites interesting, I have studied much of Israel to the point where it makes me honestly want to vomit. As an ex-Jewish athiest, the area has no more personal or religious signifigance for me than a tuna fish sandwich. (Actually, less. I can eat the sandwich.)
On the other hand, I've heard of an excellent musem of modern technology in Tel Aviv or Haifa, and I'd very much like to visit the sort of open market where one can find mechanical implements and power transformers in addition to the standard tourist-y rugs and jewelry.
Also, it appears that we'll be in Haifa for a good bit of the trip. Can anyone reccomend a restaurant? Kosher is not important; however, my family shares a distaste for barbecued goat's head. (I've heard you can buy it from carts.)
Also, a counterpoint to what SY said:
Strictly speaking, much of Iraq (providing it has'nt been eviscerated), Egypt, or Mexico City is a far more historically important place. Israel was and is little more than a small province which was constantly being fought over by irascible and determined peasants. Although it had much in it's past days, the only reason it's considered signifigant is due to the popularity of Abrahamic religions, the spectacular number of people who kept trying to conquer it, and the fact that it's got better documentaton than any other ancient place.

I think you're determined not to have a good time.
Israel's presence along the route between Africa, Asia, and Europe has forced its history to be deep and complex in a way no other place can be. When mankind came out of Africa, it was the first place they had to pass through on the way to populating the world; some of the oldest genus homo fossils in the world have been found there. That process never stopped; unlike some of the other places you name, it's been the home to an amazing variety of peoples, conquered by many more, kept as a colony by the Italians and Turks for 2000 years...
But again, if you're determined not to be moved or affected by the amazing history of the region, I can't say much to change that. There are a lot of girls and hashish if you can get away from the parents for a bit; does that help?

Okay, I'll admit it: I use the stuff. I have a T-shirt, a necklace I never wear, and a washcloth, all made out of hemp. Good stuff, and less likely to catch on fire than synthetics.
I would not, however, smoke it, or in any other way ingest THC. That's just stupid. Thanks for applying the stereotype!
It just pretty much killed off my last relationship. My girlfriend is no longer the person I once dated, quite possibly as a result of lost neurons and marijuana dependency.
Sorry to be a curmudgeon, but I'm really more interested in high-tech things. I'm likely going to the Technion (Israeli engineering and science museum, which I mentioned earlier.), and would like to see if there's anything else I should take a look at. Israel's got some very advanced biotech research going on; my cousin used to work for an advanced hydroponics startup, and I would'nt say no to taking a tour of some labs.
Also, I am rather fond of bargaining and salvaging interesting objects, and like much of the middle east, Israel has many vast covered markets. If there's a market where I can get salvaged bits of old SCUD missle transports and old Geiger counters, I would'nt mind visiting it. Souvenirs are much more fun if they make the Homeland Security people nervous!
I also would'nt mind meeting some of the Israeli constituents of this forum, or at least having them reccomend where I can get good espresso.

Well, I'm in Israel.
I've stayed at a hotel in Eilat for three days; the Israeli-style breakfast buffet was AMAZING. All-you-can-eat smoked fish!
I've visited the "swim with the dolphins" thing (conveniently located within 1km of my hotel), which was quite nice; the dolphins were'nt stuck in swimming pools, and we were told to pretty much leave 'em alone. They even used to let them out into the open sea, but people would often feed them unhealthy things, and one appeared to have had a run-in with a boat.
I've also visited Petra, which was nice but was hard to enjoy due to the searing heat, and visited Timna park, where I saw King Solomon's Pillars, and the remains of an Egyptian temple. I strongly reccomend visiting Timna; it's only about 8$ USD to get in, and you can collect bits of copper ore. (Let's see if I can smelt them!) At petra, after consulting the tour guide, I managed to snag two authentic (or at least I'm pretty sure to be authentic) Roman silver coins. Although I'm hardly a master silversmith, I should have little trouble making rings out of them; all I need do is attach the band to the sides.
I'm hoping to make my way to a proper market or bazzaar at some point; I've got a digital camera, mp3 player, and PalmPilot which I would'nt mind trading for something local. (I can likely re-sell some of what I get for profit in the States).
I'm currently at my cousin's house in Beersheva, and will tomorrow be departing for Haifa.
So, now for more questions:
1. Where can I find a place to engage in some old-fashioned trade? I can likely cajole someone I know to act as translator; many years of garage sales have left me with decent bargaining skills, and I'd like to try them in a more skilled environment. (Sounds silly, but trading has a major advantage over gambling: If you find yourself doing badly, you can just back out!)
2. What's the best place to get small R/C toys in Israel? I'm rather fond of 1:64 (or wherabouts) R/C stuff, and there's a variety availible in Europe and the Middle East, but not the US, due to FCC regulations. I'd like to try and snag one. (No, they won't knock aircraft out of the sky. The 40mhz band is pretty much empty.)

Reaping the Whirlwind
In this classic and compelling account, Robert Norrell traces the course of the civil rights movement in Tuskegee, Alabama, capturing both the unique aspects of this key Southern town's experience and the elements that it shared with other communities during this period.Home to Booker T. Washington's famed Tuskegee Institute, the town of Tuskegee boasted an unusually large professional class of African Americans, whose economic security and level of education provided a base for challenging the authority of white conservative officials. Offering sensitive portrayals of both black and white figures, Norrell takes the reader from the founding of the Institute in 1881 and early attempts to create a harmonious society based on the separation of the races to the successes and disappointments delivered by the civil rights movement in the 1960s. First published in 1985, Reaping the Whirlwind has been updated for this edition. In a newly expanded final chapter, Norrell brings the story up to the present, examining the long-term performance of black officials, the evolution of voting rights policies, the changing economy, and the continuing struggle for school integration in Tuskegee in the 1980s and 1990s.

I really love this lotion!
First thing, this lotion has a really really lovely Lemon scent,, very pleasant & not overpowering. i would in fact says its rejuvenating. And the scent stays on for the whole day! This lotion is also rather light and suitable for tropical countries (I'm from 24/7 humid & warm Singapore) so you do not feel sticky at all. I will definitely get this again once it runs out.

I used this lotion and I don't like it at all. The only positive thing I can say about it is that it has a pleasant lemony smell. It didn't make my skin soft and when I sweat it starts coming out of the skin and it leaves my skin with an oily texture. I do not recommend it at all!

This is no nonsense product. Very good for dry skin in cold winter time. Absorbs well. The scent is not too strong, meaning it's perfect. (I'm sensitive to smells). And it suits well even very sensitive skin. A gem!

Removal of Formica and stainless steel trim
We are replacing our 1950s Formica counter-top and want to keep the same period style. The stainless steel trim is welded/soldered at the joints. Is it reasonable to expect to be able to remove the old stainless steel trim in a re-useable condition? I dont know if it is held on by an adhesive (in which case it might get mangled in the process or removing it) of if it is just fitted on and held in place by the welds. I have found a place on-line that sells this kind of trim, but it would be so much easier to just re-use the old trim if I could get it off without ruining it.
I have seen directions for removing old Formica with a heat gun. Does this work reasonably well, and would it leave a good surface to glue on the new Formica?
A whole lot faster and easier to just make new tops.
Just trying to remove the old and trim the new would be a nightmare with them in place.

How do I word a Life Estate bequest??
I am trying to help my Aunt draft up a Will.
She wants to leave her new husband a life estate at her house, but when he dies she wants the house to go to me so that it stays on her side of the family. (The house is hers alone, bought by herself before she married) She doesn't want HER house to end of in the hands of her husbands nasty daughters.
I was wondering what the proper wording would be for this situation. As I have it now, it reads...
"to my husband XX, I bequeath a Life Estate in the real property located at 123 main st, city, whatever county, Tennesee. Upon his death said property shall go to my niece, xxxx and her heirs in fee simple."
Is this adequate, or should it say her niece gets the "remainder interest" of said property??
The husband is getting everything else and is happy with the Life estate arrangement.
State is TN.
Your input would be greatly appreciated. Thank you!!

re: How do I word a Life Estate bequest??
Cody, you should be using a real estate attorney, as mentioned on the real estate board.
If you are doing this for your aunt, it could come back to bite you (if you mess up), both civilly and by way of possibly being prosecuted for practicing law without a license.
Please tell your aunt to spend a couple hundred dollars to see that her estate plan in this regard is carried out properly.

re: How do I word a Life Estate bequest??
I think it is perfectly unsafe for you to write language into a will, ESPECIALLY with a potential adverserial situation in TN.
Each state has its own quirks and while a life estate may seem simple--its NOT so when it comes to matters of the holder keeping up with taxes, utilities that run with land, maintenance or LACK of same, WASTE-like he moves out and his tribe of daughers move into trash the place etc, or he turns the heat off and all the pipes freeze --how do you as remainderman make sure his estate pays the costs back? (Especially if his buckert is empty.)
Keep in mind that you Aunt has no duty under TN law to leave virtually everything to spouse--but the math of this may depend upon what portion the house represents of the whole. If the math comes out wrong its possible that Dad could be pressured by daughters to elect against the estate and defeat the life estate provision. Or worse, if Dad passes shortly after Mom his daughter could so elect on his behalf.
If Aunt wants to provide for Hubby if she passes first but keep stuff away from his kids, as is her right, I think there are some other tools she needs to review with her counsel----QTip being one...

re: How do I word a Life Estate bequest??
She got a lawyer and he completely screwed everything up. Things were contradictory and confusing. I am not writing her will freestyle. I was using Quicken Willmaker Plus 2007.
I used the same program for my sister's will and she died not long ago.
My drafting up a Will for my Aunt was for her to review and take to a lawyer for him/her to review and approve.
If she died before her husband I would take care of paying the taxes/mortgage and he agreed to keep up with the maintenance and utilities. His daughters do not live with them.
My Aunt is leaving me money to take care of these things.
I have never heard of QTIP

re: How do I word a Life Estate bequest??
It may or may not be wise for her to leave you money to take care of her estate. And unless things are properly drafted you may lose out on the tax deductibility of taxes and interest you so pay----
A Q Tip, short for Qualified Terminable Interest Property has been around since about 1981-- It's simple form a trust wherein one could leave all the income for someor all ones estate to ones surving spouse but at the end, when that survivor also passes the funds go as Aunt or whomever designated earlier and NOT as survivor mightt otherwise decide--to HIS daughters. This is one very common way for somebody to provide for a new spouse but at end the stuff comes bad to original side---or anywhere the maker wants it to go
AND a Q Tip done right perserves all the essential tax benefits of a spousal bequest.

"My drafting up a Will for my Aunt was for her to review and take to a lawyer for him/her to review and approve. "
It's unforunate if the prior attorney she had did not do a good job. However, the best solution for that is for her to find a good attorney. I understand what you are trying to do, but if a client came to me with a will written by him/her (or a relative) using a consumer will prep program, I wouldn't use it. It would take me longer (and cost the client more) to try to modify that into a good will that would meet the client's needs than to draft up a new will. Those will software programs can't address everything that a client may need, are not customized for the various customs and practices of every state, and may not offer some of the extras that may be available in a particular state that would make the will better. And, of course, the client won't know everything that he or she should take into account when considering what to put into an estate plan. A good estate plan is comprehensive and includes more than just the will.
"I have never heard of QTIP"
A QTIP is a type a trust that is used for federal estate planning purposes. It is really only useful if a married couple (1) has a combined estate that would be subject to federal estate taxes and (2) they desire to impose restrictions on the surviving spouse's ability to use the trust property. In other words, suppose a husband is concerned that his wife will not be able to manage money well and he wants to insulate her against losing her inheritance to bad financial decisions. The typical way to do that is to put her inheritance into a trust rather than give it to her outright. Using a trust allows him to define the circumstances under which she can distributions from the trust and he can select a trustee to manage the trust for her. The problem is that, in general, gifts to trust do not qualify as a gift to a spouse for federal estate taxes, which means that the gift would be subject to the estate tax. However, if the trust meets certain requirements, it will qualify as a gift to the spouse and thus will not be subject to the federal estate tax until she dies. Those trusts are called QTIP trusts.

"Is this adequate...?"
We cannot tell you if it's adequate or what language you should use. Only an estate planning attorney in your Aunt's state, in consultation with an attorney in TN where the property is located, can draft a proper will that will meet the requirements of both states. It may be that a life estate is not the best way for her to accomplish her objective here. A trust or other device might turn out to be better for what she needs. I really think she should find a good estate planning attorney to help her design her estate plan. There are number of issues, including taxes, that ought to be considered and unles you have experience with estate planning, you are likely to miss some important things.
