|Infusion Table
|Utility Block
|Version 1.3
Use Templates and Lumps you get from NPCs to make weapons and armor.
Templates are bought from The Hunger mobs in the villages that spawn on the first layer and lumps are found by talking to Crypt Keepers and Mysterious Men.
To make weapons, take a template and the corresponding lumps (it takes several lumps) and put them in the corresponding slots. The table will then automatically craft the item. Different lumps create better tiers of weapons. Making armor is a bit different-you need the right template for the armor (Degraded, Finished, Glistening, Demonized and Tormented) and lumps. The type of lump determines the part of the armor. Teaker is used for boots, Amthirmis is used in the hood (magic), Draven is used in the helmet (melee), Cermile is used in the leggings, Karos is used in the chest and Pardimal is used for the mask (ranged). This means you must progress up to the fourth layer before you can obtain a complete armor set.

Mark Your Calendars: August 18 Is Wear Your Helmet to Work Day
3 hours ago in News
Wear your racing gear to work and win prizes.
I have an 65 AH sprite, non-bugeye, and the engine is a little underpowered from the factory, I think she's pushing 80 or so HP, its a 1098cc 4 cyc inline engine. I'm trying to decide if I wanna throw a honda 4 in it, or perhaps a v8. I know that the v8 has been done before though.
Whatever I decide I'm gonna through a cage in it, because its soo light an I'd prefer not to die while driving it. I'm looking for a daily driver and occasional autoX whip, and when I say occasional I mean maybe once a year at most.
Miata drivetrain with carb swap.
Wow, the answer really IS Miata, even if the whole car isnt' needed!
I would go with a GM Ecotec engine.
should be fun, and seems to be unkillable
I believe all Honda 4's, excepting the S2000 ($$$), are reverse-rotation engines. Making one work in a RWD platform is almost out of the question.
Probably the easiest solution is a simple upgrade to the 1275 engine.
Heck, no. Go Rotary!!!! Get a 13B, fabricate a 'mustache bar' engine mount bracket, drop it in and hang on tight! ~145 HP in stock form, with a big carb and open exhaust ~185 HP. Fuel injected with free flow exhaust and the right programming etc ~200 HP.
Hartley V8?
Get a 1.3 from a Suzuki Swift Gt and use a transmission from a Samuri, they weig less than waht is in there now.
Dual carbs on the motor, good to go.
Rotary, Suzuki or 1275 A series are all good choices. You might be able to get a Toyota 4AGE to fit too but it will be more work. I've never been impressed with the V8 swaps; they always look like a deathtrap and with such a short wheelbase and flimsy chassis I think you're asking for disaster.
Go peruse the British V8 swap web site. They have a lot of swaps that aren't V8s as well.

Nobody is crazy enough to put a 200 hp+ Rotary engine in a small British car!
That appears to be how it is done. Suki G13b Motor and stuff.
After looking at that, I am looking for ANYTHING I can put the G13b into.
There are many options, but few fit well, and even fewer are done well. I put a toyota 4age in my 69 Midget (sprite's twin if you weren't aware). You'll want to stay on the small side engine-wise if you want to make it work well. I'd go for lightweight and here are my favorites in order: Suzuki swift aluminum 1.3 twin cam with samurai trans tie: 4age 20v Miata 1600
A distant 4th would be the rotary for a couple reasons: -they run hot and we don't have much room for a big radiator- also the car's interior is hot enough on any given day from march to october that you really don't want much more -they run loud and we don't have much room for muffling. My 4ag is loud enough, and I understand that rotaries are pretty loud themselves -Fuel efficiency is abysmal. We only have 6 gallon gas tanks. I get 35 mpg out of the 4ag and still struggle to break the 200 mile mark. Rotaries can get anywhere from 15-mid twenties, which really limits what you can do with them range-wise.
I've got a website with info on my build: www.home.earthlink.net/~roethler
A guy named trevor has one about his Miata based build: www.the-mite.com
Another guy with the suzuki engine www.ado13.com
I did the 4age 20v because pound for pound it offered the best performance- engine and transmission together weigh about 300lb and it puts out 150 hp roughly. Stock 1275 weighed about 260 lb, so it wasn't a weight gain that couldn't be overcome with some lighter bodywork, relocated battery etc.
Good luck, it's been a fun ride.
3.5L Shortsar V6
Rev till you puke... then go 2krpm more...
I'm surprised nobody has mentioned the SR20DE! It's all aluminum, so it's a good bit lighter than those ugly lumps of iron from mazda or toyota, it's 2L so it makes real horsepower, and it's got aftermarket out the wazoo. Everybody wants the DET turbo motor for their drift car, so the RWD DEs are incredibly cheap.
What's not to love?
I'm using the 3-cylinder Suzuki 1.0L with a Samurai trans in my Midget, but I'm building it for economy and not hp. Mine's a bit lighter than your standard Spridget, though, with the Arkley kit, so it should still be decently fun to drive.
MCarp22 wrote: It's all aluminum, so it's a good bit lighter than those ugly lumps of iron from mazda or toyota
I wouldn't be so sure! The 4A-GE is a thin-wall cast iron for the block, and has a simple (light) valvetrain when compared to the SR20....add in the fact that the RWD Toyota T-50 transmission is tiny and lightweight compared to the Nissan 5-speed and the results are surprising.
This page claims 155 kg (340 pounds) for the 4A-G/T50 as fitted to the car, less exhaust manifold, and 183 kg (a smidge over 400 lbs) for the Nissan RWD SR20DE with transmission complete as fitted to the car.
Now...I didn't create the above webpage, nor did I weigh both drivetrains, but the numbers seem to be in line with what I have experienced and heard elsewhere. I'd be happy to stand corrected if anyone has better information to share. The factory Toyota exhaust manifold is cast and adds a bit of weight, but that is what headers are for. :D
The Nissan does have availability, aftermarket, and displacement/torque going for it, and could be a good option if you come across one for cheap and can make it fit. I'm not saying the SR20DE is a bad choice, just saying don't assume iron block automatically equals heavy.
Another vote for a nice13b rotary. If you get a fuel injected one, you can Megasquirt it too. :)
All d and b series (civic, integra, etc.) honda engines are reverse rotation, while the k series (rsx and some others) is normal(?) rotation. It makes lots of power but is relatively heavy and if i were interested in power at the cost of weight and perfect balance i would go all the way and put a v8 in it.
There is a bugeye sprite right now at historic smalley's garage in Watkins Glen that i was told has a small block chevy in it. I drool at it every time i drive by...
If you have only basic mechanical skills and have never done something like this before I think you should go with the simplest and most straight forward swap you can find. One that has a kit available would be ideal. Even a simple swap is a complicated job, so why not make it easy on yourself, you don't want it to be so hard all the fun goes out of it. I'm sure some research on the internet will pay off.
I think the Honda K series would be the way to go.. lightweight, high rpms (so un-british tractor like) and nearly industructable if you do the maintance
I saw a very interesting Spridget at Tex Racing, a NASCAR shop in NC. Beautifully done turbo Buick. Looked factory. I wonder what it felt like with the hammer down.
Your 1098 cc engine makes 59 horsepower.
A nice 1275 "A" series engine is ideal for these cars and bonus you get to keep the wonderful ribcage trans. A 1275 built to about 90 HP is a wonderful thing in a Spridget. Plus you won't have to hack the trans tunnel out and make it bigger (but if you do choose to go that route, hope you have teeny-tiny feet).
The vast majority of engine-swap Spridgets that I've seen have ended up not being finished......and another Spridget is lost in the bargain.
Sportbike motor?

We report molecular dynamics simulations of confined liquid crystals using the Gay–Berne–Kihara model. Upon isobaric cooling, the standard sequence of isotropic–nematic–smectic A phase transitions is found. Upon further cooling a reentrant nematic phase occurs. We investigate the temperature dependence of the self-diffusion coefficient of the fluid in the nematic, smectic and reentrant nematic phases. We find a maximum in diffusivity upon isobaric cooling. Diffusion increases dramatically in the reentrant phase due to the high orientational molecular order. As the temperature is lowered, the diffusion coefficient follows an Arrhenius behavior. The activation energy of the reentrant phase is found in reasonable agreement with the reported experimental data. We discuss how repulsive interactions may be the underlying mechanism that could explain the occurrence of reentrant nematic behavior for polar and non-polar molecules.

From the above discussion it is apparent (to us at least) that, though many different LC systems exhibit reentrant behavior, the molecular mechanism leading to a RN has not uniquely been identified, because the analysis has focused on the molecular details.

Our calculations apply to the class of non-polar LC molecules exhibiting RN behavior because the GBK model does not include molecular dipole moments. A natural question to ask could be: Is there any similarity between the mechanism leading to reentrance in polar LC's and what we have found for non-polar LC's? We think the answer might be yes. Cladis and collaborators point out that repulsive forces are responsible for the disruption of smectic layers in polar LC exhibiting a RN phase [
the local potential energy landscape must be rather flat with only shallow minima, thus disrupting the attraction that stabilizes smectic layers, and
the mutual cancellation of forces between neighboring molecules leads to an effect analogous to levitation in porous media, which can explain the enhanced diffusivity characterizing RN's. Hence, we conclude that repulsive interactions may explain reentrance in the different physical situations mentioned above.
Both the existence and the features of the RN phase are not affected by the presence of confining walls. We have verified that the only effect of the confining surfaces is a shift of the phase boundaries with respect to the bulk case, that is the smectic A-RN phase boundary is shifted to lower

Born and raised in Northern California, I had a love for photography but didn't start shooting until 4 years ago. I kind of worked at it backwards starting off with digital then moving into film. I found and affinity for shooting nude and erotic portraits, form studies and "in the moment" images featuring women of many ethnicities, presented in black and white. By showcasing the models in black & white, it is my hope that the models will be viewed not by their race and color of their skin but by their diverse beauty. I shoot with film, using older cameras, Polaroids and lo-fi plastic cameras, as well as digitally, and develop film and print my images using classic and alternative techniques. I'm a great admirer of the work of Keith Carter, Edward Weston and Robert Farber. My goal is to be thought of as a mutated, lo-fi version of Helmut Newton!

Pay Per Click Advertising
As someone who is relatively new to Internet marketing and getting the word out on the Web, I have found that it is difficult to distinguish yourself from competitors in a much larger marketplace. Like a newspaper classified section on steroids, search engines like Google and Yahoo feature banners and other ads that are crowded by people who are trying to hit it big with their unique business ideas. While the task for small business owners and individuals is daunting, pay per click (PPC) advertising offers a new way to put your company or Web site in front of the right people without spending too much money.
PPC advertising essentially requires an advertiser to deposit a certain amount of money per month into a special account through a PPC provider like Google or Yahoo! From this account, funds are withdrawn by the provider each time someone clicks on the advertised link. The amount withdrawn is based on how much the advertiser bids for a particular keyword. This typically ranges from a $0.10 minimum to upwards of several dollars per click. The cost per click is based on the popularity of a term, with more popular terms requiring higher bids. This then puts a greater hit on an advertiser's budget.
The first step in the process of advertising through pay per click is finding the right provider. There are a wide variety of possible providers, though everyone should be leery of any Web sites that promise too much. The Wal-marts and the Targets of the PPC world are Google's AdWords and Yahoo's! Sponsored Search. The benefit of Google and Yahoo! is their obvious superiority to other providers in traffic. After all, who hasn't used Google or Yahoo! for something in their lifetime? As well, these sites offer a network of affiliated publishers that allow targeted advertising on articles and other Web site offerings that will draw more attention to a link.
For example, an online publishing company could place their advertisement on Barnes and Noble, where writers and other literary professionals are more apt to shop. However, with more traffic, comes greater competition and higher bid prices on keywords that could draw eyes to your products and services.
In contrast, the corner stores of the Internet are Web sites like Bidvertiser. Sites like this offer more flexibility to advertisers and lower bid prices. Lesser known Web sites do not have the same search engine technology as the bigger companies, but they do offer targeted advertising on appropriate Web sites (like the aforementioned Barnes and Noble example). However, they also offer less traffic and less name recognition.
After all, Bidvertiser won't be winning any popularity contests against Google. The process of choosing a provider depends on your budget, your desire for creative control and what type of people you are trying to draw into your business. A deciding factor may be price, with smaller Web sites offering free sign up and Yahoo! requiring a small initial deposit.
After deciding which provider to use, an advertiser needs to decide which keywords to select. Using a keyword selecting software like that offered by Yahoo! is a good first step, because it gives a tangible measure of the popularity of certain words. For example, the word "war" receives 119,237 clicks while the word "Grover Cleveland" only received 1,608. Bidding on the word "war" therefore, will require more money per click than bidding on "Grover Cleveland."
The best way to approach picking a keyword is to find a word that is specific enough to lower the competition and the per click price while having enough clicks to be worthwhile. Instead of simply selecting the word "war," you may select "Korean War" or "war crimes," depending on your Web site's content.
The final step in the PPC process is to decide the format and text of the actual advertisement. If you have done any searches on Google or Yahoo!, you know that at the top, bottom and side of each search page, there are sponsored advertisements. These ads are the means by which pay per click advertising works. With every search using your exact keyword, your advertisement will appear and users will have the opportunity to click on the link to your Web site.
PPC advertisers can select an advertisement on the top banner, the bottom banner or the vertical (or side banner), with a wide variety of sizes and colors for those who are into customization. With the competition fierce for each Internet user's attention, an advertiser needs to write sharp advertising copies for their PPC campaign. That means, writing in short bursts and putting the bare essentials of your business into one or two brief sentences.
There you have it. Those are the essentials of pay per click advertising. Now, go be fruitful and multiply your page views and sales!

An interesting question. I had never considered the problems that this situation could cause for strangers.
Many small streets, such as Water St. are interrupted for various reasons. To us they are one street with gaps throughout their lengths.
There are many streets with this configuration, not only Water St. Streets North of Market St. are North, as in North Water St. and streets South of Market St. are South, as in South Water St.

Subject: [Phly-Rts] Philadelphia Street names
I recently had the pleasure of visiting Philadelphia briefly for the first time - a long way from New Zealand, but a wonderful visit as it brought to life so much of my research over the years. As I had just discovered my Grandmother lived with her mother and sister at N.Water Street in 1902, I decided to walk along it for sentiment's sake. I found it on the map quite close to Columbus Boulevard, but it was much shorter than her house number indicated, i.e. 2508. I have since checked the street and number on Mapquest and found another N. Water Street near Kensington Ave and it was most disappointing to find I had been in the wrong area. Can anyone please tell me whether these two streets were joined together in earlier days. They seem to be a long way apart on the map, but why would there be two N. Water Streets, as well as S.Water St on the south side of Philly near the river.
Any information would be much appreciated thanks.

Harbie, I would like to know if it is possible to transfer B&W DS69B pics with

text: I am selling off my old CDs... I'm asking for $5 shipped (US - international OK, but extra) for single CD albums, $7 for double disc sets. If there are no notes next to the disc it is in the original case with all the notes, etc. If it is listed as no case, but has all notes (liner notes AND the back cover insert). It will be in a CD case when shipped. If it lists no case, no notes it will be in a plain jewel case. To my knowledge all of these CDs play fine. No reasonable offer will be refused, so please take a look at what I have and tell me what you think is reasonable! I couldn't find a good way to get this big list on here, so I am linking it from my website. *Please note that the Pearl Jam 3 disc Dissident Live set and the Mesmerize live disc are for sale, but not for $5. Please make offers (I'd check eBay to get an idea of what people are paying for these).

The European Commission has immediately launched its procedures for dealing with countries which break the deficit rule.
The finance ministry in Paris said 2003 would leave France in breach of the European Union's Growth and Stability Pact, although it promised a return to a sub-3% deficit the year after.
The news was released shortly before a meeting of European finance ministers in Brussels, at which the question of European countries' deficits will be a hot topic.
The deficit is the likely result of a freeze on taxes for this year, although 1.4bn euros in expected spending is to be cancelled to take up some of the slack.
Earlier this year, the ministry had predicted a 2.6% shortfall for 2003. Just days ago it set last year's deficit at 3.04%.
Hard line?
The response from EU economic and monetary affairs commissioner Pedro Solbes was a decision to open the EU's excessive deficit procedure against France, based on the 2002 figure.
Brussels has previously said it would fine countries who broke the 3% limit, although many economists believe further budget cuts would hammer Europe's economy just when the global downturn is weakening demand to a dangerous degree.
Germany and Portugal have both broken the barrier in the past, each being reprimanded in the process.
But France's transgression is seen by some officials as particularly bad, since both Germany and Portugal did their best to ensure its finances were within the Pact's limits the year after a breach.
"Whenever we write a report on a country after the excessive deficit procedure has been triggered we always look also at the follow-up year" to the one in which the deficit breached the EU cap, one official told Reuters.
"It is one thing for a country like Portugal to have a deficit of more than 4% one year and then the next year a deficit of around 2.5%.
"But this (the French case) is something different."

Malawian President Bingu wa Mutharika has died after suffering a heart attack, medical sources have told Al Jazeera, although his death has not been officially announced.
The 78-year-old was rushed to hospital in the capital Lilongwe after collapsing on Thursday morning , and state media subsequently reported that he had been flown to South Africa for emergency treatment.
The Reuters news agency described chaotic scenes at the hospital as Mutharika's wife, Calista, and senior cabinet ministers left the building, amid concerns that the president's death could prompt political upheaval.
The constitution makes clear that Joyce Banda, Mutharika's vice-president, is first in line to take over as head of state in the southern African nation, although her expulsion from the ruling party in 2010 could complicate the transition.
Such a situation would appear to put her on a collision course with Mutharika's inner circle, including Peter Mutharika, the country's foreign minister and the president's brother who was groomed to take over.
But Bright Sonani, a Malawian journalist with the Nation newspaper, said that whatever differences exist between Mutharika and Banda, the constitution remains supreme.
He said "it is clear-cut" that the vice-president has to take over when the president is incapacitated or dead.
Sonani said local media were still waiting for an official announcement, adding that the authorities would not normally announce news of the president's death in a hurry as they have to prepare the country for the sad news.
Police on Thursday were deployed across the country's capital, while 15 army officers took up positions around Banda's residence, witnesses said.
Aid problems
Mutharika, a former World Bank economist, came to power in 2004 and presided over a seven-year economic boom, underpinned by foreign aid and some favourable rains, that made Malawi one of the world's fastest-growing countries.
Economic growth, however, came to a halt last year, after a dispute with the United Kingdom led to diplomatic expulsions in both countries and the freezing of millions of dollars in aid to Malawi.
The aid suspension led to an acute shortage of dollars in the Malawian economy, hampering fuel, food and medicine imports.
Mutharika's diplomatic isolation and economic plight worsened in July 2011 when the US shelved a $350m programme to overhaul the country's dilapidated power grid, after police killed at least 19 people in a crackdown on an unprecedented wave of anti-government protests.

Third Fleet
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
The Third Fleet was a group of 11 ships that sailed to Australia in 1971. It was part of the British colonisation of Australia. The ships left Great Britain in February, March and April 1791, and sailed for the penal colony in Sydney. They carried more than 2,000 convicts aboard. The other passengers included soldiers, politicians and nobles sent to hold important positions in the colony.

"In August 2003, Malaysia signed a T$900 million contract with Irkut Corp. for 18 SU-30MKMs. Malaysia flies the F/A-18D Hornet, and was offered Boeing's F/A-18 E/F Super Hornet, but chose the SU-30MKM instead. The SU-30MKM is an advanced variant, whose performance involves considerable improvements over SU-30MK/MKK fighters. Canards, stabilizers and fins will be manufactured by India's HAL Nasik under a $25-30 million value subcontract. According to the contracts in place, Irkut was to deliver all aircraft by the end of 2008, but delivery of the final batch is ongoing.
On May 24/07, a rollout and demonstration ceremony was held for the first 2 Su-30MKM fighters for the Royal Malaysan Airforce (RMAF) at Russia's Irkutsk Aviation plant. Their fighter fleet will now consist of R/F-5E/F Tiger IIs (to be phased out), F/A-18D Hornets, MiG-29 Fulcrums (until 2015), and SU-30MKMs. The results from their internal training and air combat exercises would be interesting, to say the least."

PARIS – Earthquakes can rip open sub-sea pockets of methane, a highly potent greenhouse gas, according to a study by German and Swiss scientists published on Sunday. Quake-caused methane should be added to the list of heat-trapping carbon emissions, although the scale of this contribution remains unclear, they said.
The evidence comes from cores of sediment drilled from the bed of the northern Arabian Sea during a research trip by marine scientists in 2007.
Methane hydrates — an ice-like form of methane and water — plus signs of water between sediment grains and concentrations of a mineral called barite suggested that methane had surged up through the seabed in recent decades.
"A major earthquake had occurred close by, in 1945," said David Fischer from the University of Bremen. "Based on several indicators, we postulated that the earthquake led to a fracturing of the sediments, releasing the gas that had been trapped below the hydrates into the ocean."
Over a likely period of decades, around 7.4 million cu. meters of methane belched to the surface, the authors calculate. This estimate is conservative, they stress.

Arizona Aloha Festival 2014: Shaved Ice and Spam Musubi
Hawaiian shaved ice.
Natalie Miranda
This weekend Tempe Beach Park is filled with food, music, dancing and jewelry celebrating the cultures of the Pacific Islands at the Arizona Aloha Festival.
Marking its 20th anniversary, there was no shortage of good food, refreshing sweets and long lines at the event Saturday. It continues today, Sunday, March 9, from 10 a.m. to 5 p.m.
See also: Arizona Aloha Festival 2014 (Complete Slideshow)
Warning: There was a severe lack of shade Saturday, with long lines leading up to booths serving Hawaiian, Samoan, Guamanian and Polynesian food.
The mixed plates from the Paradise vendor choices were plenty enough to attract anyone, such as chicken, short ribs, garlic shrimp and spam musubi. All plates came with a side of white rice and that insanely delicious macaroni salad.
Mixed plate with garlic shrimp and short ribs.
Natalie Miranda
We could tell the garlic shrimp was cooked a little too long becaue of the rubbery texture, but the garlic and other seasonings made up for it.

Spam musubi
Natalie Miranda
There was enough spam musubi to go around, wrapped in seaweed and rice, perfect with Sriracha sauce drizzled on top.
Temperatures were well into the 80's on Saturday, and the best way to beat the heat was with Hawaiian ice. A pile of ice about four inches high topped our cup, and the choice of flavors ranged from watermelon, green apple, rootbeer, POG -- passion fruit, orange and guava -- and coconut. Hawaiian cream was squeezed on top of the refreshing ice. It was an instant cool down and satisfaction.
Fresh coconut juice was another good way to cool off.
Mini market full of snacks and dried fruits from the Pacific cultures.
Natalie Miranda
The best feature -- aside from the food stands -- was the mini market-type tent, where tables were set up with tubs filled with many different snacks native to the Pacific Island culture. Japanese peanuts, pickled mango, dried cuttle fish, wasabi peas and many others filled the tent that had a line wrapping around one half of the tent. We're all for taking a little bit of the Pacific home in an edible fashion.

The T-shirt dress turns on the bright lights: red-blue-purple-and-turquoise geometrics spangled all over a short silvery base-coat. By Geoffrey Beene. Charles Elkaim earrings, giant cube ring.
As the temperatures rise so do most women's hemlines. While there still seems to be a preponderance of micro cut-off denim shorts (both on the streets and in the bars), I personally would like to push women to take a more elegant and glamorous approach to showing off their legs. This 1967 editorial from Vogue includes the perfect pieces to wear on a summer's evening—while they paired them with shimmering stockings, these dresses would look equally good with bare legs and the long sleeves cover up against the sometimes unforeseen cooler night temperatures. The combination of sparkling mini, oversized earrings, silky hair and long legs is one that seems ripe for now—fresh and charming.
Definitely one of the times I wish the photos had been published in colour, as how amazing does the Beene sound in the first photo? "Red-blue-purple-and-turquoise geometrics spangled all over a short silvery base-coat"? Heaven!

Publication Acceptance Date: 8/9/2003

Citation: Lewers, K.S. 2004. On farm trial procedures.. . Interpretive Summary:
Technical Abstract: Some strawberry growers are interested in conducting cultivar evaluation experiments on their farms. Advantages of these on farm trials include: knowing what cultivars of interest perform best with the grower's soil type, microclimate, and production system as opposed to a location several counties away; being able to get customer feedback on new cultivars before planting them to large fields; and being able to help supply important information to researchers around the area. Judging the value of new cultivars in comparison with others requires unbiased evaluation that can only come with following the 'three R's': replicate, randomize, and repeat. Other considerations should include the type of material to be evaluated (cultivars or breeder selections), plot size, harvest method, quality evaluation, data analysis, and performance evaluation.

Mel Gibson Driven 'Nuts' By Tranquilizers
Mel Gibson allegedly wrote an e-mail to Oksana Grigorieva blaming "tranquilizers" for allegedly punching her in the mouth while she was holding their infant daughter. Granted, he's already been caught on tape admitting to doing it, I'm honestly getting tired of her trotting out all kinds of easily-faked evidence to milk more money out of this thing. "Breaking: Mel Gibson Secretly Hired Pilot to Write 'Sorry For All the Domestic Violence I Definitely Did' in the Clouds to Win Back Oksana." RadarOnline reports:
In the email, sent the day after an explosive January 6 confrontation with his one-time lover, the Lethal Weapon star wrote: "The tranqullizers (sic) only make me nuts."
It was an apparent reference to pharmaceutical drug use.
Tranquilizers are depressant drugs that are used in the treatment of anxiety, insomnia — and sometimes during alcohol withdrawal.
Sure, the alcohol withdrawal thing sounds plausible, but knowing everything we know about Mel Gibson now, and shit, even before all this, I'm 90% positive he was talking about the tranqs used to sedate large animals.
THERAPIST: How do you feel today, Mel?
MEL: Oh, I dunno. Hoping to get some head later.
THERAPIST: EVERYBODY OUT! *fires three darts*

Men are from Mars
by Jill Schlesinger
May 24, 2005 - Husband: "Why do you have to be so emotional about this?"
Wife: "Why cant you be more emotional?"
Whether you have experienced this conversation yourself or seen one episode of Oprah or Dr. Phil, you know that it is a classic exchange between men and women. Women are alternatively accused or lauded for being too emotional (sometimes referred to as being "open and empathetic") and men are accused or lauded for being emotionless (sometimes referred to as being "logical").
Those stereotypes may have some grounding in reality, with one specific exception: investing. According to a study conducted by the research firm of Mathew Greenwald & Associates, mens emotional approach to investing leads them to lag the opposite sex when it comes to being a prudent and successful investor.
In a role reversal, many women appear to leave emotions behind when they invest, which makes them more likely to sell losers faster and make fewer investing mistakes than men. Conversely, men are twice as likely to fall prey to "hot" tips, and are more likely to ignore the tax consequences of their investing decisions and trade their securities too often.
Whats even more interesting about the results of this survey is that women seem to be better investors than men despite their lower level of knowledge about the market. According to the survey, women scored lower than men regarding general questions on how the financial markets work, including rudimentary investment terms and historical inflation rates. And yet, those gaps in knowledge seem to be far less dangerous than the over-confidence and impatience that male majorities cited as reasons that drove them to make bad decisions.
Without creating new stereotypes, this survey is an excellent reminder of those traits that generally make people better investors. Stepping back from emotions, learning from mistakes, being realistic about your own weaknesses and creating good habits are key elements to becoming a better investor and ultimately, more financially secure.

The Titans took care of the Ravens' short passing game, and dared Lee Evans to beat them deep. It didn't happen, and we explain what Baltimore needs to do to right the ship. It starts with better health at cornerback.

I remember, back in the day, this website had so much more free content.
It actually didn't, but memory can be a funny thing.
Our final part in looking at slot vs. wide targets focuses entirely on defenses. Which first-round rookie corners had tough times in 2016? Who was the weak link in Denver's No-Fly Zone? Also: the Falcons have a secondary to watch out for in 2017.

just dont write sane lol maybe change the letter combo around and keep same letters who knows just maybe next time research the name if its a big known artist stay clear if not who cares unless ur from the same place

Heyyyy, finally another person on this forum that skates. What deck you riding right now man? But for crits, the top kook is pretty good, the top right of the k's shouldn't get thin where it connects to the leg. And i'm diggin that KOTR, but thicken up the bottom of your T to match the rest of the letters. otherwise it looks like you have a decent understanding of letters.
Another one I finished today. Self crits - the left loop of my M is too small and my background is fucked.
MUES- thanks dude- but right now im riding daryl angel habitat. just got it today actually. because of the broken deck above. haha. but your deffinitely getting betting. your self crits are pretty accurate and overall pretty good piece. not diggin the background so much tho

For the most part these arent in any real order... and the only ones that dont say ZETA are ROBOBANG (under the beaver), Hold (to the right), COMP (under robobang) and HOLD (to the right of that)
any crits would be nice. i have 3 posts of pics so any crits on any of the various pics and styles would be appreciated

++++++SIR CREW++++++ sircrewgraffiti.blogspot.com
i paint when i can afford paint, pretty much impossible racking paint in adelaide, but i agree theres soo many toys in adelaide, but there are a few that are right up there
tried goin simple with a weird background lmk what ya think, crits
zeta... you've got some really interesting style up there. weird ones I'd like to see on wall, but the more "traditional" style ones you rockin are lackin.
I'd have given you a big chunk of crit text. but I'm gonna let someone else with more patience do it
Sever - i like it, but i think u should have submerged the letters a little more
did this back in June but i finally colored it in crits please
no need to crit this purple one,just thought id put it up since i colored it in after i colored the one above
love the character, badass classic movie...make his hands bigger though, looks like he has little girl hands lol and shade the bat so it looks round cuz it looks like a flat cricket bat/stick thing the way u colored it...good shit though
i didn't wanna put em to low cuz the S might look like a C and the E would look like an F...idk maybe ill try it next time
i know a range of all styles and shit gotta say theres a bunch of burners from adelaide over the years
hit me a pm if u use fb man theres a group on there with a mad range of adelaide flicks always being posted
do you mean that the traditional ones are lacking? and why? if not you answering, itd be cool if anyone did. and i like the other style thats robotic. ill try and paint that soon.
++++++SIR CREW++++++ sircrewgraffiti.blogspot.com
Zeta: That "Robot" style is sick as fuck! I agree with Phat that your traditional style is not nearly on par with most of your other work. Seems you're trying to go very abstract with the letter forms and are starting to lose some of the foundation that give the letters clearity and strength. The reason the robot forms work so well is they still stick pretty close to a traditional letter form that has been made abstract. Your artistic abilities are undenyable. I suggest toning down the abstract for your "bubble" type letters to get more of a foundation of before aplying your abstract mind to them. For instance the green one that is upside down under the naked lady that that kid was upset about her tits being coverd. This one shows a stronger foundation than most of the others like it. The style you use in the one that says Sir with the hand print is very cool. Some of the other ones like this look great, but lose legibility. I think with some more practice you could rock this style hard as fuck.
thanks alot man. i like the legit critique. ive been coming to the site for a while and obviouslt managed to get in a ton of work before i ever posted. those are only the ones i wanted to post, i have alot more that are way more toy but ya know everyone has a toy phase. im still in it but hopefully youre comments will help me get out of it. and for me legibility isnt a huge concern. some of them are a bit ridiculous though. anyway, thanks

this makes sense, right? We asked them to acknowledge orders, if nothing else, and they're doing that now. That's a front-edge of better customer service behind the scenes.
It has been a nightmare of non-communications with the store since the setup changed. I spent a week trying to get my "Three from the Vault" ordered adjusted to the lower Shipping Charge ( I'm in Cambridge, UK). I tried contacting them via Customer Services on the Web (5 times), and via direct email (3 times I think) and got no replies whatsoever. In desperation I posted to the Admin forum here and got some support and help there from Izzie ( thanks Izzie). Shortly after I found that Customer Service had responded to my post and cancelled my Order.
So I get no response at all to any email, but I get a mail shot from them, and when I reorder "Three from...." I get immediate confirmation of the order. Is the only interest in taking my money?? Surely not here of all places.
The most disturbing thing about this episode is that it has the feel of a non-caring Corporation running the store - which is not what I expect from DeadHeads. DeadLand is normally a haven from the some of the harsher realities elsewhere, so to be treated this way is very upsetting.
Please tell me this is all due to teething troubles - and not a takeover by Corporate America :))
The Reply option was apparently behind the weird non-chronological listing of some posts.
I encourage you to use the old-fashioned copy/paste to respond directly to something someone else said.
JeremyP - I'll copy your note directly to some Admin-folks who might can help out. Everyone (even admin!!) is having trouble with the Store customer service, and it's being worked on. But that's kinda out of our hands here, and all we can do is continue to pass your concerns along and scream a little louder every day. Thanks for your patience!!
I noticed the "reply" button at the bottom of posts is now gone. I think it creates more of a sense of community when you can directly reply to another poster. For example, over in the "best versions" thread, I was previously able to respond to someone's post about best Sugarees, but now it seems we can't get/keep that kind of dialogue going. (I guess we can if we cut and paste of respond to the poster by name without the quote.) Same with the "what are you listening to?" thread. It would make sense to be able to quote and/or directly reply to someone along the lines of "if you're listening to _____ you might like _____."
Still, I'm enjoying digging around in here - plenty to do!
"Got a few wrinkles but that's OK, hang out in the breeze and they'll blow away"
Have sent two emails in the previous 3 days re an order which I think has either not been processed, or has got the wrong billing address. I never got any email confirmation of the order, and customer services at the new store email address are not replying, so I'm in limbo here.
Can anyone help, please?

It's a shame people cannot create/post their own topics here ... weak.
