BELTON — As many ways as there are to score points in a football game, the University of Mary Hardin-Baylor seems to utilize all of them.
In their 45-23 victory Saturday over St. John Fisher the Crusaders found six different ways to put points on the board — safety, field goal, interception return, run, pass and point-after interception return for two points.
The Crusaders have made the unusual methods of scoring closer to the norm, especially through their current Division III playoff run.
Those scores are often accomplished or set up by a special teams unit that is coming to the forefront.
Every team assembled at every level proclaims that they focus on all three phases of the game — offense, defense and special teams. Sometimes special teams are just thrown in as an afterthought. Apparently, the Crusaders mean it.
"It goes back to Coach (Pete) Fredenburg and how he emphasizes all three phases of the game," said David Branscom, who is one of a bevy of coaches assigned to oversee special teams. "Not only are we emphasizing it, but we want to use special teams as a weapon. We emphasize it in practice and it has worked to our advantage.
While the UMHB offense sputtered off and on by its standards against Fisher, it was the special teams play that got the Crusaders on the board to establish a lead and carry it on through to a victory.
Chad Peevey punted six times for a 49-yard average aided in large part by his first one — a 75-yard bomb that was downed at the Fisher 2. Three plays later, Andy McAteer got to Fisher quarterback Tyler Fenti to force an intentional grounding call in the end zone and a safety.
Moments later Peevey utilized the stiff winds for a 47-yard field goal and a 5-0 lead.
Up 12-0 in the second quarter, the Cardinals completed a 13-play, 75-yard touchdown march to cut the lead in half. They wouldn't get any closer as Tim Bower, UMHB's 6-5 defensive end from Belton, blocked the extra point. Bower used his tall frame to come through the middle and bat away an extra-point attempt just a week before in the 59-8 rout of Rowan.
"If it wasn't for (the tackles) in front of me I couldn't do my job," Bower said. "One of them punches their guy and I slipped in. It happens quite a lot."
It's known as the "slip technique" developed way back in the 1980's by Baylor player Max McGeary when Fredenburg was part of Grant Teaff's staff. McGeary blocked 16 kicks one season.
Rowan and Fisher combined to score four touchdowns against UMHB the last two weeks. Only one of the subsequent conversion attempts was successful.
In the third quarter Saturday, Fisher scored again in an attempt to get back in the game down 29-12. On the two-point conversion, Cody Jones stepped in front of a Fenti pass and took it 100 yards into the opposite end zone to steal the Cardinals two points for the Crusaders and a little piece of momentum from Fisher.
"That was a momentum swing for us and huge play for me," Jones said. "It just keeps the pressure on."
Tack on a fumble recovery by UMHB's Malcolm Miller on a Cardinal punt return that led to a Crusader touchdown and another Peevey field goal from 36 yards it was a very fruitful day for the special teams.
"We're out to prove how good we are and who we are as a team," Branscom said of the special teams unit. "We put our best athletes on the field."

Fortune magazine recently highlighted America's beloved motorcycle manufacturer, Harley-Davidson (NYSE:HOG) — saying that after numerous ups and downs in its 110-year history, not only is Harley growing again, but it's considered by many investment analysts to be a dividend growth stock.
Whether that's true or not remains to be seen, but it did get my brain churning about leisure stocks as a whole.
Somebody once said (and I'll be damned if I can remember the exact reference) that the sporting goods industry is a great business because it methodically grows at 2% per year. Nothing spectacular — just consistent growth. However, while certain leisure stocks (like those sporting goods companies, or movie theaters) do well in all kinds of economic conditions, the recession of 2008 wasn't as kind to others like hotels and resorts.
Nonetheless, one thing most leisure stocks have in common is that they've outperformed the S&P 500 over the long-term.
Can they continue to do so? I think so — and I have three specific targets in mind:

UM, hello? Is that the insurance company? Er, I've had a little prang in my motor...
This twisted wreck on the back of a tow-truck is a £1.4million 225mph Pagani Zonda – one of only 25 in the world – after its mega wealthy owner smashed it up when he hit a puddle of water at low speed.
Fortunately, millionaire German investment banker Steffen Korbach, 28, and his 21-year-old passenger both clambered out unhurt even though the car does not have airbags.
But the gunmetal grey Pagani Zonda F Clubsport Roadster was badly damaged in one of the most expensive crashes in history.
Steffen lost control and hit a roadside barrier on the A10 Autostrada in Italy. A pal said yesterday: "He was driving through roadworks and hit a pool of surface water which caused the car to aquaplane. Even though Steffen is an experienced supercar driver, he collided with the roadside barriers.
"The car doesn't have airbags so he was lucky to escape unharmed."
The petrol-head financier had been on his way to Milan to see the new Pagani Huayra – set to replace the Zonda – as he has one on order.
Before the smash, the exclusive V12 7.3-litre Zonda could hit 0-62mph in an astonishing 3.2 seconds.
The friend added: "Amazingly, Steffen is considering getting the car repaired but this won't come cheap, it's been really badly damaged."
But at least Steffen will not be stuck for something to drive while he is waiting. His supercar fleet includes two £810,000 Bugatti Veyrons, two Lamborghinis and a £500,000 Porsche-made Gemballa Mirage.

- How to Read a Study Record
The hypothesis of the proposed project is that after a fat overload, the postprandial response is different in both groups, suggesting that the LPP will present the most significant damage in endothelial vasomotion in obese individuals, especially those with GI and T2DM. After the fat overload, we hypothesized that there will be a worsening of endothelial function and microvascular reactivity in OB/DM2 and OB group compared to C, but also find lower concentrations of incretins in OB/DM2 group compared to other groups.
These hypotheses may be confirmed by techniques for evaluating microvascular function, the use of DFT skin for vasomotion evaluation and finally analysis of analytes through metabolic and cardiovascular read by Multiplex kit.

Hi guys, I was wondering if there is anyone who does freelance websites here? Be it full-time or on the side?
I do it on the side, but I choose which projects I want to take. Usually it's for nominal fee's, nothing more than $2-3k
Now I've secured a freelance deal, one which is at $8k and one which is $20k – How do I do this in terms of payments? Do I have to register myself somewhere as a freelancer with regards to things like "tax"? For amounts a bit higher like this I guess I also have to invoice the companies?
Can someone advise me on these matters?
I am also curios to know information about this.
Not sure where you live, but in the United States, you don't have to register anywhere, just report the income on your tax return. If it is over a certain amount, and it is a steady amount, you should estimate for the year and divide it into quarterly payments. You will also need to pay a self-employment tax of about 15%.
I am in UK, wonder if it is different

"Never was a time when I did not exist, nor you," Krishna informs a disillusioned Prince Arjuna, in the first lesson of the Bhagavad-gita. It's one thing to read that "the perishable body and the eternal soul are not the same," and quite another to eyeball the lessons via Bhagavad-gita Museum, the "world's first multimedia exhibition" dedicated to illustrating, in three dimensions, the world's oldest book. The figures' realism comes courtesy of a group of Disney sculptors who traveled to India in 1973 at the behest of His Divine Grace A.C. Bhaktivedanta Swami Prabhupada, the figurehead of Vedic (read: Hare Krishna) consciousness. Through 11 dioramas, Krishna flutters about in disguise, at the reins of the senses, on the back of a garuda — stunningly rendered and ornamented with lightning flashes, dramatic sound effects and a booming-voiced narrator who sounds eerily familiar. By donation you too can learn of "The Precarious Condition of the Embodied Soul." Closed for years, the exhibits, electronics and narrations have been refurbished but not modernized, thanks to selfless married disciples Bal Gopal and Lolita, who only hope to illuminate the notion that a self-realized soul "can break through the cycle of birth and death." 3764 Watseka Ave., Culver City. (310) 845-9333.

Leave the appletinis and gossip to the Sex and the City gals — this ladies' night is more about IPAs and home-brewing tips. Every third Wednesday of the month gals are invited to Eagle Rock Brewery for the Women's Beer Forum, to taste, learn about and discuss rare and delicious craft beers. You need not be a microbrew enthusiast to attend. The event is as much for the beer-curious as it is for aficionados. Venue co-owner Ting Su founded the forum last March, in part to educate ladies about beer in a space that feels less judgmental than, say, that sketchy dive bar on your block. It draws a diverse crowd, and serves as a rare opportunity for suds-minded women in L.A. to meet each other and make new friends. There's nothing but beer on the agenda, but, sorry fellas — no boys allowed. 3056 Roswell St., Atwater Village. (323) 257-7866, eaglerockbrewery.com.

Harsh morning sunlight bouncing off unforgiving concrete makes Hollywood hangovers a little bit crueler than the rest. Escape your unfortunate present by hauling your half-drunk ass up the El Capitan Theater steps to a 1920s movie palace balcony — a creature all but extinct — and into a Hollywood past preserved in amber. Leave the world of screaming kids and half-remembered regrets far below as you ascend ever closer to the ornate East Indian ceiling that speaks to a bygone exoticism and never judges you. Nurse your heavy head in the cool darkness as the dulcet tones of the Mighty Wurlitzer waft their way up to you before the curtains part and you drift off into a hazy past when seeing a movie was A Big Deal. Time your visit for those in-between weeks and you're rewarded with an old hand-drawn animated classic lovingly crafted by Disney's Nine Old Men. Hydrate well from your lofty vantage point, and by the time you are awoken from your reverie and re-enter the bright world of the present, you'll feel better about the town you decided to call home. Forget your troubles, and come get Dopey. 6838 Hollywood Blvd., Hlywd. (818) 845-3110, elcapitan.go.com.

Although the Museum of Neon Art is moving to Glendale, its incredibly fun downtown bus tours continue. Start out with a little social and liquid lubrication, aka drinks and appetizers, before climbing onto an open-top double-decker bus to cruise the streets of L.A. for two hours in search of the city's best neon art. Well-versed docents help you discover both the history of neon and Los Angeles as seen through its old neon signs. Akin to the L.A. Conservancy in its efforts, the museum's mission statement proclaims that it "encourages learning and curiosity through the preservation, collection and interpretation of neon art." Judging by its blast of a bus tour, it's fulfilling that mission. Visit its website for an entertainingly informative explanation of how neon really works. (Yes, I'm a geek.) 136 W. Fourth St., dwntwn.; neonmona.org.

I am always amazed at how many people don't seem to know about the Craft and Folk Art Museum. With a fascinating history — it began in 1965 as The Egg and The Eye, an avant-garde café and shop — and a forward-thinking philosophy, this incredibly intimate gem of a museum was capturing the beauty and artistic integrity of the functional and international before anyone either promoted or protested the ideals of globalization. From Joseph Cornell's shadow boxes to a just-closed show of Jennifer Angus' extraordinary insect installations, this tiny museum, which feels like an uber-hip New York art gallery, presents some of the most expertly curated shows around. With affordable craft classes for both children and adults, this is one museum you owe it to yourself to visit and join. 5814 Wilshire Blvd., Miracle Mile. (323) 937-4230, cafam.org.

Sure, you've let your children blow off steam running through the outside spray fountains. And I know you've explored the interactive exhibits about bugs. But did you know you also can barter some of those curious seedpods and snakeskins you found on your last hike? Kidspace Museum's Nature Exchange allows you to trade your wild discoveries for other natural treasures such as polished minerals, shells and fossils. You are allowed to bring in three items at a time, and points are given based on both the item's rarity and your child's ability to explain it. The more research you've done together — they even have field guides there to help you look up all your finds — the better. By the way, ask me the history of ginkgo trees. 480 N. Arroyo Blvd., Pasadena. (626) 449-9144, kidspacemuseum.org.

He's bad for the second round. In general, solid depth, ok starter in a pinch. No matter, we've been pretty good with second round picks...even with ruskell

Sos I think you're a little too high on Matt Scott (and Renfree). Might be because Seattle has shown interest. But I don't see him as the #2 QB in this draft. I think he's decent but not the #2 QB.
Geno Smith, EJ Manual, Nissib, Tyler Wilson, Barkley, Glennon
Those are my top 5. Granted I've only seen a few games of each (Glennon=1, Wilson =1) but putting Matt Scott as a 2nd rounder and Nissib as a late 3rd doesn't make sense to me. Nissib will most likely be an early 2nd at worst.

These aren't my predictions for where they'll get picked, but by where I would personally draft them based off how I feel they'll play in the league. Scott does everything well as a passer, much like Wilson, but lacks ideal size and intangibles. Renfree certainly doesn't have the upside of some of the guys behind him, but potential is only one area of my grading and as of now he is better than the guys behind him.
To expand on that, while Nassib does have a rocket arm, he has some huge footwork and pocket presence issues that will take A LOT of work to get through.

It's just a funny feeling of mine that the Vikings are going to double dip at WR in the 1st round. With both of the Tennessee guys there, the Vikings see a chance to go from perhaps the worst WR corp in the NFL to one of the best, highest potential pairs in the league that are on cheap 5 year contracts. Both of these guys are high ceiling players that are familiar with one another and compliment each other beautifully. I personally wouldn't take a LB in the 1st because there is so much value at that spot in rounds 2-4.

I'll try to get some hourly reports out on some guys that fit the Seahawks mold to look out for on Day 2!
South Carolina WLB/SS DeVonte Holloman
: Holloman is exactly the type of player I could see Seattle "reaching" on in the 3rd or 4th round and proclaiming them as the starter at WLB. Looking over our draft history, this team values mid round LBs that offer versatility. KJ Wright came out of Miss State with the ability to play both ILB and OLB with great size. Korey Toomer was an athletic pass rushing LB that also came with ideal size. Well Holloman is 6'2", 243 lbs, which is bigger than even guys like Khaseem Greene. Holloman is praised as being one of the most instinctive players in the draft, which Seattle has almost unanimously looked for when drafting defensive talent. Wright and Wagner were both similarly praised for their instincts. Holloman is being drafted at a 2-down position for this defense, but with his experience as a SS as well as LB means he doesn't always have to come out on passing downs. He is ideal at the POA, can cover the slot, and rushes the passer from the edge. Watch the game tape and you may come away scratching your head as to why he's rated so low, like I am. He almost seems to perfect for Seattle.

Tennessee Tech WR Da'Rick Rogers
: At 6'3", and nearly 220 lbs, Rogers is exactly the type of receiver Pete loves to have in his offenses. Bevell should be salivating looking at this guy on tape, as he looks like a young Anquan Boldin with the ball in his hands. He runs like a RB but has big 9.5' hands that he can pluck the ball out of the air with. Although his drug-related issues with the University of Tennessee are a big red flag, I'm not too worried considering he passed every weekly drug test he took with Tennessee Tech and reportedly attended and passed every single class he took. He seems humbled from his punishment and would be unreal value at any one of our selections. If he has indeed fixed his character concerns, he's a top 15 talent that could land in our laps.

With the college football season now right at our feet, I thought it'd be a good idea to have a thread dedicated to the Seattle fans that also spend quite a bit of time scouting these future NFLers.
This should be a nice collective database built up by our very own Seattle posters, where anyone can post their feelings, strengths/weaknesses, sleepers, quick notes, or scouting report on any prospect they have something to talk about.
If you add something in-depth, I'll update it to this post where the entire index will be kept up-to-date. This way, by the time the draft rolls around, we should have quite a few reports in here so some of the people that are more in-the-dark come draft season can easily access this thread and learn something about the prospects. Also a good way for people to compare notes on prospects that they have watched or see some sleepers that weren't on their radar.

At least 35 more people died Friday after flash floods washed away thousands of homes in southern India, pushing the death toll from this week's heavy rains to 102, officials and media said.
In worst-hit Karnataka state, floods have destroyed at least 26,000 houses, submerged roads and snapped communication links in many areas.
On Friday, district officials in Karnataka reported the deaths of 35 people, pushing the death toll over the past two days to 86, with many more people reported missing, the Press Trust of India news agency said.
Army troops have begun rescue operations and helicopters are dropping food and drinking water packets in the worst-affected areas, about 600 kilometers (375 miles) north of the state capital, Bangalore.
Scores of villages in 11 districts in northern Karnataka were submerged and people had fled to higher ground, a top official said.
"Northern Karnataka is reeling from unprecedented rainfall. At least 26,000 houses have collapsed," Karnataka's chief minister B.S. Yeddyurappa said.
Late monsoon flooding has hit a large swathe across southern India. On Thursday, torrential rains and widespread flooding killed at least 16 people in neighboring Andhra Pradesh state.

US consumer prices fell in October for the first time in four months, taking pressure off strapped households and giving the Federal Reserve more room to ease monetary policy if the economy falters.
For now, economic growth is gaining traction and a separate report on Wednesday showed industrial output rebounded strongly last month as factories ramped up production.
"The consistent theme in the recent flow of economic data has been one of accelerating momentum in economic activity," said Millan Mulraine, a senior macro strategist at TD Securities in New York.
"Nevertheless, the concern for the recovery continues to be about what happens in Europe, as any escalation in the unfolding debt crisis could present a significant obstacle for the economic recovery."
The Labor Department said consumer prices dropped 0.1 per cent last month as Americans paid less for new cars and gasoline.
The data reinforces the view that inflation is poised to trend lower following a spike in oil prices earlier in the year. That is seen giving the Fed more room to act if the economy slows.
"The Fed remains intently focused on employment and growth - and not on inflation," said Jacob Oubina, an economist at RBC Capital Markets in New York.
The drop in prices during October gave a boost to workers whose wages failed to keep up with inflation over the summer, which had led households to save less.
A separate report by the Labor Department showed weekly earnings rose 0.3 per cent in October when accounting for inflation.
Stronger incomes could help consumer spending as the year closes, giving the economy a little more momentum as the country braces for a possible recession in Europe that would drag on growth.
A storm is gathering over the global economy as Europe struggles to contain a snowballing sovereign debt crisis. The US economy has been gaining steam since the summer, but a blowup of Europe's problems could drag the US back into recession.
A separate report from the Fed showed industrial production rose 0.7 per cent last month, beating economists' expectations.
Home builders in the United States grew more optimistic this month but still thought sales conditions were poor, according to the National Association of Home Builders/Wells Fargo Housing Market index released on Wednesday.
"The data is relatively upbeat in the US, which contrasts with the situation in Europe," said Omer Esiner, a strategist at Commonwealth Foreign Exchange in Washington.
US President Barack Obama urged European leaders to act boldly to stem the crisis as bond market contagion spread throughout the region, while France and Germany clashed over the role of the euro zone's central bank.
The Fed report also showed factory output accelerated in October, rising 0.5 per cent on an increase in production of motor vehicles and parts. Even with US factories operating closer to full capacity than at any time since July 2008, there was little sign of inflationary pressures in the factory data.
Also looming over the economic outlook, US lawmakers are debating whether to let tax cuts and some unemployment benefits expire at the end of year, which would drag on growth.
Inflation is expected to fall sharply over the next year.
In the 12 months through October, consumer prices rose 3.5 per cent after rising 3.9 per cent in the full year through September.
Investors and economists expect that reading will fall to 1.3 per cent by November of 2012, the Cleveland Federal Reserve Bank said in a report.
For now though, a measure of prices closely watched by the Federal Reserve remains uncomfortably high.
Prices outside food and energy climbed 0.1 per cent in October, pushing the so called core reading for 12-month inflation up to 2.1 per cent. The Fed would like that reading to trend at 2 per cent or just below.
Still, the headwinds to US growth appear strong enough that the Fed could be forced to act before long.
"At this point it would probably take only a few missteps out of elected Washington or the capitals of Europe before Fed leadership sees the need for more aggressive action," said Michael Feroli, an economist at J.P. Morgan.

Hey there, time traveller!
This article was published 22/5/2013 (1524 days ago), so information in it may no longer be current.
GRAPEVINE, Texas - The Boy Scouts of America will convene a two-day meeting of 1,400 local leaders to consider changing its long-standing ban on allowing openly gay boys to don the Boy Scouts uniform.
Officials of the Irving, Texas-based organization are scheduled to open the first of the ballots cast on whether to allow openly gay Scouts. Scouting officials propose allowing openly gay Scouts but retaining the ban on gay adult Scout leaders.
The final vote is scheduled for Thursday in the Dallas-Fort Worth suburb of Grapevine.
Some conservatives have denounced the proposal, saying the Scouts' traditions would be undermined by the presence of openly gay youth. Gay-rights supporters have welcomed the proposed change as a positive first step but want the BSA to the ban on gay adults as well.

Just to throw another stone in the pond to see how far the ripples spread:
I did a search for 'Bunting' on www.Dictionary.com. One of the hits suggested an alternative form of the word in 'Buntine'. Bunting/buntine was/is a name for finely sifted flour. It speculates the sieving was done using a woollen cloth which today is used mainly for making flags. <I paraphrase>.

Cash & Coupling: How To Cover Your Ass-ets During A Breakup
You've discovered your union is more Ben and J. Lo than Ben and J-Gar. Some things just weren't meant to be. Luckily for you, making a few dumb decisions on love doesn't mean you — or your finances — are doomed for all eternity. As long as you're smart enough to avoid a major financial setback during your breakup (and, of course, avoid making "Gigli 2"), you'll emerge a little heartbroken but with a bank account as strong as ever. Here's how to cover your "ass-ets" when you're breaking up.
Gather your financial information immediately.
Generally, one partner in a marriage handles the bulk of the financial responsibilities, which often results in the other being completely ignorant about the particulars of the couple's financial status. If this sounds like you and you're headed for splitsville, start educating yourself pronto, advises Atlanta-based family attorney Paul Oeland of LaMalva & Oeland. Begin opening the mail — especially those bills and financial forms, gathering up tax returns, going through file cabinets, finding your retirement and investment account statements and running your credit report to see what you owe. This will clarify your financial picture for you and your lawyer, and also make it difficult for your partner to hide assets if the proceedings take an ugly turn, he says.
Avoid the temptation to hide assets.
Yay! You've just received an unexpected work-related performance bonus at the same time that you filed for divorce! Before you stash it away in a bank account bearing your name only, think again. "Divorce law is crystal clear: both sides must disclose everything," says Oleand. "Hiding assets will cost you much more in the long run when they are discovered, because the party attempting to deceive the other will likely be punished in some fashion." And if you discover your partner has a secret account in the Cayman Islands, run, don't walk … right to your friendly neighborhood divorce attorney.
Make modest alterations to start lowering your spending.
You'll soon be bunking by yourself, which will certainly have its pros (all the closet space to yourself, a toilet seat that's perpetually down), but also its cons (no one to take out the trash, the responsibility of footing all the bills by yourself). In order to prevent yourself from relocating directly into the poorhouse, try to avoid living a lavish lifestyle immediately post-split. "It does not help at all to increase spending in an attempt to show a 'lifestyle' that should be maintained," says Oeland. "To the contrary — jockeying for position is a bad idea, and is never rewarded." His caveat to this rule: if you have kids, try to avoid major changes to their lives during the separation and divorce process. "Private school, soccer, swim team and tutoring should all continue. The goal of every judge is to ensure that children come through the process as unscathed as possible."
Lawyer-up. Now.
The good news: the vast majority of divorces end with both parties agreeing to the terms. However, it will likely take a while to reach a conclusion, so in the meantime, let a professional (read: a family and/or divorce lawyer, preferably one who can drive a hard bargain) protect your interests and be the pit bull. "You wouldn't go to a podiatrist for heart surgery, so don't hire a real estate closing attorney to do your divorce," Oleand says. "This can be a traumatic experience during which you will have to make huge decisions. You need someone advising you who understands the terrain so that you can trust the advice you're getting and keep your head as clear as possible during this rough patch."

Their willingness to die for a place like Munda gives them a tremendous advantage over us.
Finally, the type specimen of Munda is a "runt," smaller than any other male seen.
Munda is in some sort regarded as the metropolis of the whole district.
When the cavalry, riding on rapidly, captured the abandoned fort of Munda, every trace of a rapid flight was apparent.
He said, "Over there in that fort," pointing to Munda, just over the brow of a rise in the ground.
Why, Karen and Munda came into the kitchen just a few minutes ago, and told me.
Some, however, maintain that Ronda is the site of the Munda, under whose walls was sealed the fate of the sons of Pompey.
Those who are converted to Christianity must cut their hair, but a non-Christian Munda must always keep the chundi or pigtail.
Munda made some desperate efforts to get hold of her own back.
The Carthaginians then removed their camp to Munda, whither the Romans speedily followed them.

Netgear AV Series Set for Expansionby Ganesh T S on 8/25/2010 4:30 AM EST

probedb - Wednesday, August 25, 2010 - link...and there I was about to buy a Play!ON HD mini. I hope you guys do a really good review of media streamers once this comes out.
Frequent firmware updates are definitely a required feature for these. IMO WD fail because they're very bad with updates. Reply
Decaff - Wednesday, August 25, 2010 - linkI actually just bought a Playon! HD mini, and so far it has been really great. A little more tweaking of the firmware and I think it will be absolutely perfect (for me at least).
Though had I seen this one was coming up, I too would probably have waited as well Reply
buhusky - Wednesday, August 25, 2010 - linkno gigabit = not getting my money for a media/blu-ray iso streaming device. how are companies still making 10/100 devices still? is gigabit that much more expensive to put in? Reply
ganeshts - Wednesday, August 25, 2010 - linkThere is a thread on AVSForums showing Popbox (using SMP 8643) with a 10/100 port streaming Blu-Ray ISOs without any issues from a NAS.
In my opinion, it is the implementation of the networking stack and the host processor speed which matters. I think the NTV550 will pass the test, but can confirm only after the review. Reply
Taft12 - Wednesday, August 25, 2010 - linkAgreed - the only Fail is the original posts understanding of technology.
Gigabit ethernet triggers A LOT of interrupts regardless of whether the bus is PCI or PCI-E. This just doesn't make sense on small devices without the horsepower of a PC. As ganeshts has told us, a Blu-Ray ISO can be streamed over 100Mbit - I can't think of a more network intensive task you can ask of a media player than that! Reply
Jaybus - Wednesday, August 25, 2010 - linkNot necessarily. With GigE also comes jumbo frames, reducing the number of interrupts. Also, 9k frame sizes are better suited to sequential streaming of large files.
That said, 100 Mbps is fast enough to move a 4 GB file (ie. 2 hour MPEG2 DVD movie) in about 7 minutes. Far faster than is needed for streaming / playing files from an NFS share. Even Blu-Ray only requires 54 Mbps.
So, the only other aspect, really, is transferring files to a HD connected to the media device. I have had a Iomega HD device with GigE for a while. Yes, GigE is faster than 10/100, but it is still far too slow, and WLAN is agonizingly slow. When I just want to transfer files to the Iomega's hard drive, I find it far simpler and faster to move it to my PC and plug it into USB. The Netgear has eSATA, meaning I would never use NFS other than for streaming. Far faster to move an eSATA drive back and forth physically for transferring files. Reply
CrapONez - Wednesday, August 25, 2010 - linkI just bought the Viewsonic NexTV VMP75 and moved my Netgear Homeplug HDX101 from my daughter's room to my living room. I'm getting FAR less bandwidth there than I was in her room (less than half). Too little to stream HD reliably (30-50Mbps). The other outlet plug goes to my power conditioner into which all my devices (including a 50" plasma) are plugged into.
I connected a TB external drive via eSata to the VMP75 and it plays HD beautifully. Unfortunately I only get ~5Mbps transfer rates when copying files to it from an XP machine. I noticed at one point this went up to 15Mbps when all the A/V components were off. Does the power draw on the Homeplug's twin outlet affect throughput? I've been thinking of trying to move it to a different outlet.
I tried running Ethernet in the house... bought a fish tape and 500' of cat5e cable with connectors and all, climbed up into the attic heat of a Florida home with roofing nails clawing at my every move, and gave up when I realized that there were cross-braces between joists in the wall impeding my efforts.
The Homeplug has been great and effortless and worth the price. If only I could get the throughput I was getting in the other room. The computer room and my daughter's bedroom are on one side of the house and the entertainment system is on the other. Could that be why? Reply
markk2 - Wednesday, August 25, 2010 - linkCrapONez,
Plugging into power conditioners and a UPS was my problem with the Netgear stuff. I was getting round 25Mbps until I did some research and started plugging directly into the wall outlets. Now I always get 180-200Mbps at all three points in a two story 3000 sq ft house. Let us know if that works for you. Reply
CrapONez - Wednesday, August 25, 2010 - linkSorry if I was vague. I'm plugged directly into the wall at both ends. My AV power conditioner is plugged into the other receptacle of the same outlet. I was wondering if the power draw from it might affect my throughput or if it's simply because it's in a different part of the house (different side of the panel or longer run). thx! Reply
CrapONez - Thursday, August 26, 2010 - linkI tried an alternate outlet and immediately the Tx and Rx rates reported by the HDX101 configuration utility jumped to over 100Mbps. I thought I had a solution. But over the next few minutes, those numbers came down to around 50Mbps. (WTF?) That was last evening. Now they're hovering around 60Mbps. The "Quality" reading has jumped from "Data" to "DVD Video", but still a far cry from "HD Video". Any ideas why the initial reading was so high and then degraded from there?
At least turning on the AV equipment doesn't affect throughput anymore. Reply
markk2 - Thursday, August 26, 2010 - link"Any ideas why the initial reading was so high and then degraded from there?"
The only other thing I can think of is microwave ovens and flourescent lights. I found those items to have the most dramatic effect on my network. My AV stuff doesn't seem to create any problems at all.
I guess the lesson here is that some experimentation is needed to get max performance. Reply
bznotins - Wednesday, August 25, 2010 - linkNetgear is pretty notorious for early abandonment of existing products on firmware development. With current MKVs now coming with compressed audio headers, the Netgear EVA-9150 can no longer play the audio on these titles. There hasn't been a firmware release for the 9150 since early 2010 since it is clear the devs are working on the "next best thing". This also happened with the EVA8000 -- firmware development ended there before many of the features on the box were implemented.
Netgear makes good media streamers, just know that firmware development isn't their strength or focus. Reply
gwolfman - Wednesday, August 25, 2010 - link+10 for including full Blu-ray and DVD menu support!!!!!!!!!! :) Reply
barry233 - Wednesday, August 25, 2010 - linkNot having Netflix is a killer. I would not bother with any streamer unless it can stream Netflix. Reply
chromal - Wednesday, August 25, 2010 - linkYou should be sure to include in your testing methodology a means of determining whether this technology emits radio-frequency-interference that would import amateur radio operators on HF (e.g.: shortwave) bands. If it does, it will not be an acceptable consumer electronics product. Reply
MGSsancho - Wednesday, August 25, 2010 - linkThis is all fine and dandy but until they support features of my aging popcornhour I will not buy it. MKV with subtitle support is a must for me. support all the stuff MKV does well and you have a chance of becoming a show stopper. anything else is an unsold toy. Reply
JadedMan - Thursday, August 26, 2010 - linkThe video specs look good to me!! One thing I would like to see reviewed is audio support. Lossless audio such as FLAC is important, but also the ability to send an unaltered bit-perfect audio stream through the optical or coax digital audio port. That is important for proper bit-streaming of HDCD encoded rips. I have an outboard DAC that supports HDCD, but a couple of media streamers I've tried do not properly pass through the HDCD encoding. As HDCD is encoded on the least significant bit of the digital audio stream, even minute changes to the audio stream destroy the HDCD encoding. And 24-96 digital audio output via an optical or coax digital audio output would be nice too! Reply
jimmyzaas - Thursday, August 26, 2010 - linkPlease in your upcoming review of the new Powerline units mention about power protection when using these PowerLine adapters. None of the reviews on current units never mention anything about it. They just mention "oh it works great. it works ok. it's fast. it's slow".. but wait.. what about possibility of frying your delicate home theatre gear?? Mind you, I know all electronics have some small degree of surge protection in them to get that UL rating. It's still concerning.
From your WD powerline review, noticed there is a transformer. Is that effectively the surge protection? What about these "noise filters" they implement in Powerline AV+ series? Do these apply to the Ethernet ports as well? Are the noise filters the surge protection? I don't see any MOVs in those.. although I know MOVs are a fire hazard themselves over time.
Linksys units mention they already have surge protection in the units and please do not plug units into a surge protector. It however does not list in specs how many joules, let-through voltage or response time. WTH? Meanwhile, other units like Trendnet tell you specifically to DO NOT CONNECT and DISCONNECT your unit during a thunderstorm. WTH? What sane person would wake up at 3:00am to disconnect these units during a thunderstorm at night?
This is the only thing holding me back from purchasing one of these units. The only other thing I can think of is buying another huge surge protector with ethernet ports.. just for the surge protection.. although I don't think that's very economical. Then there's also the APC ProtectNet standalone surge protector.. but where do I connect the ground? lol.
I worry about this because a few years back, my computer PSU fried during a thunderstorm. Every since, all my equipment are either surge protected or behind a UPS.
I don't think we can take the word of the manufacturer on this.. gotta do some testing. Reply
ganeshts - Thursday, August 26, 2010 - linkJimmy,
All powerline devices sold in the US market have to pass UL certification which looks at the safety regulations.
As far as I know, in the 8 or so years of powerline product shipment, there has been no report of any equipment that has been fried :) I guess manufacturers do run through surge tests on the units, and I will definitely get the exact details from Netgear while reviewing their units.
As for Trendnet's suggestion, just as you are hesitant, they also want to cover their bases. Do you know that is is possible for your DSL modem to get fried due to thunderstorms? In fact, I personally know of people whose DSL modem (as well as the router it was connected to) got damaged due to a thunderstorms in the night time (no one switches them off, as the Internet is considered to be an always-on resource nowadays). Trendnet wants to make you aware of the issue since a fried powerline adapter / router could pose a fire hazard if the consumer tried to use a damaged unit. Reply
scJohn - Thursday, August 26, 2010 - linkHDI has announced 4 new Dune media players that will be available for purchase in Sept. 2010. See
Looks like steaming media boxes are going to be hot for this Christmas.
Hardware specs mean nothing with out also having quality film-ware and good support for that film-ware. This is the area, film-ware, where the majority of these media device fail. Need I mention the PopBox disaster.
And what's with this ever constant NetFlix coming soon? Can some one break thru the NDA fud and find out what it takes to get NF's seal of approval to run on these media devices. Supposedly the manufacturer has to prove that they will be able to sell 100,000 units the first year, but what else is required. Reply
ganeshts - Thursday, August 26, 2010 - linkYes, the Dune also has a Blu-Ray license. However, the minimum cost in that series seems to be $239.99, which is why I indicated enthusiasm for the NTV550 as it has a lower price point :)
Of course, firmware needs to be good, as you indicate. Let us just hope that Netgear keeps up with this, as they have the perfect platform to take off from. Reply
Xichekolas - Thursday, August 26, 2010 - linkAt this price point, why wouldn't I get a ZBOX? That would allow me to control/upgrade the software, and can be a server to boot.
The powerline networking stuff is finally becoming relevant at least! Reply
romeogg - Sunday, August 29, 2010 - linkI would like to see the performance of the new netgear powerline AV kit through GFCI and AFCI outlets, which are now standard in homes built after 2002 in most states of the US. Reply
themaninspain - Wednesday, September 01, 2010 - linkMy personal experience of Netgear's AV hardware has been very bad. I bought an EVA700 2 1/2 yrs ago and Netgear has not released a single firmware update. I bought an O!Play HDP-R1 in July and Asus has released 2 updates so far.

text: Is it just me, or did Parcell's throw the ball early in a game to get the lead and then go to a running game later in the game after the defenses were wore down? Seem's like when this team was at its best during the early Romo years was when that was the case. If the above is true, why aren't we doing the same thing now instead of relying on a inconsistent running game trying to run into a fresh defense with a substandard line. Enlighten me, because I'm thinking there is a huge difference in how Parcell's called a game versus the red headed genius.

Reign fall at Indoor Winter Classic in Vegas
LAS VEGAS, NV – The Ontario Reign (21-8-1-1) fell in the Indoor Winter Classic to the Las Vegas Wranglers (14-13-1-3) in a close 3-2 match before 3,991 at Orleans Arena where fake snow fell from the rafters for the game.
The Wranglers lit the lamp first as Andrew Sarauer sent a shot toward JF Berube. The Reign goaltender almost stopped it but the puck found its way under Berube's pads. The two teams kept up the end-to-end play throughout the frame.
The Reign got their stride in the second period when Kyle Clifford tied the game 1-1 for his fourth tally in a Reign uniform. He beat the Wranglers by poking it past Joe Fallon for the equalizer. Brock Sheahan and Brady Calla assisted the play. With just 23 seconds left in the second frame, Brock Sheahan struck again this time scoring the Reign's get-ahead goal with a one-timer from the slot. The defenseman was set up by forward Jason Beeman and fellow blue liner Justin Pender.
Las Vegas matched Ontario's energy in the third period scoring two to tie and eventually win the game. The score was knotted at 2 when Eric Lampe received a hard pass from the blue line and shot it past Berube's blocker side. With 3:54 left in regulation Josh Lunden scored the game-winner for the Wranglers. He picked up a feed from Sarauer as he came in quick on Berube's right side. Judd Blackwater also earned a point on the goal.
Fallon earned the win stopping 16 of 18 shots while Berube took the loss with the 19 saves on 22 shots.


text: KARACHI - Aamir Sarkosh of Iran lifted the Jubilee 6-Reds Asian Snooker Championship title as he defeated Boonyarit Kaettikun of Thailand 7-6 in an exciting final here on Wednesday evening. Sarkosh staged an incredible recovery from the brink of defeat after being 3-6 down to overpower Kaettikun after a marathon over three and half-hour contest. Kaettikun dominated the first half of the final with sparking potting, tactical play and brilliant snookers. Sarkosh won the opening frame by two points 46-44 but it was Kaettikun all the way when he was enjoying a 6-3 lead, with Kaettikun one from away to take the title, however, it started to slip from him after a couple of crucial missing in the 10th frame. Playing with rising confidence and renewed spirit, Sarkosh grabbed four frames at trot to change the course of the final and won the title 7-6 (46-44, 12-46, 01-52, 33-0. 43-31, 01-54, 12-45, 0-66, 0-49, 46-0, 63-08, 37-32, 41-28). Earlier, Pakistan's dreams of retaining the Asian Snooker title ended here when Amir Sarkosh defeated home team's last surviving cueist Hamza Akbar when he went down in the semifinals 6-5.

Elihu Vedder(Illustration for Rubáiyát of Omar Khayyám) The Cup of Death
about 1883
chalk, pencil, and ink
19 3/8 x 14 7/8 in.
Smithsonian American Art Museum, Museum purchase and gift from Elizabeth W. Henderson in memory of her husband Francis Tracy Henderson
The verses illustrated by Elihu Vedder were written by the twelfth-century Persian mathematician, astronomer, and poet Omar Khayyám. They acquired an ardent following among artists who sought spiritual and poetic values in a time of rampant materialism. The themes of fate, death, and the renewal of life were especially poignant for Vedder, who had recently experienced the death of two of his children and the birth of two more.

Linux offers two methods of accessing I/O ports. The method I will
present this week is the safer and more portable of the two.
A Word of Caution
In general, user-level programs should not access hardware directly,
for several good reasons. For starters, usually a dedicated library of
API functions or a vendor specific library allows you to access a
device in a safe manner. Secondly, the details of I/O port access are
platform dependent (e.g., the control port's address) and may vary
across hardware architectures. Finally, a program that accesses
hardware directly might crash the system. That said low-level programs
that do need to access hardware directly could accomplish that
relatively easily.
Accessing an I/O Port through a File Descriptor
Suppose we have a device connected to the computer's printer parallel
port, say a remote control that switches the light in the room on and
off. The "dev/port" generic device enables a program to access an I/O
port. We open it in write-only mode using the open() function:
int main()
int fd=open("dev/port", O_WRONLY, 0);
Since the control port of "dev/lp1" is located at address 0x378+2 (890
decimal), we have to advance the logical file pointer to that offset
before we can write a command to it. We use lseek() for this purpose:
const int PORT=0x378+2;
lseek(fd, PORT, SEEK_SET);
Now we can use write() to write a command directly to the control port
of "dev/lp1". For the sake of brevity, I omitted all error checking
code from the program, although, in general, you should check the
status of an open() call. Let's assume that our remote controller knows
only two commands: "turn the lights on" and "turn the lights off",
which are represented as the characters 0x01 and 0x00, respectively.
The following write() call turns the lights on:
const int ON=0x01;
const int OFF=0x00;
unsigned char command=ON;
write(fd, &command, 1);/*write 0x01 to the control port*/
Here's a complete program that turns the lights off:

Dungeon Fighter Gunner perfectly fits those who like the fighting-style of beat'em ups but don't like plotless games. The storyline of RPG and the action of classic beat'em up like Street of Rage are merged in this title.
Old-fashioned pixelated graphics, upgrading system, weaponry and equipment that can be crafted and sold, final bosses, quests and real-time fights. That's what you'll get in this game, that mixes swords and guns, classic and modern.
Lots of dialogues for storyline lovers and huge Empyrean and Citadel maps to explore, as well as unmapped dungeons. The only catch: dialogues are excessive from my own point of view. Interface should be enhanced: retro 2D graphics doesn't mean that cannot be enhanced. Worthy.

Latin Americaĺs Strange BedfellowsUpdated: November 2, 2007
Colombian President Alvaro Uribe is Washington's closest ally in Latin America, while Venezuela's Hugo Chavez is an anti-American firebrand. Yet a recent warming between the two leaders, prompted by Venezuela's offer to help Colombia negotiate with one of its guerilla groups, is raising eyebrows and provoking questions about the direction of U.S.-Colombia relations. "How long will the honeymoon last?" asks Poder, a Colombian business magazine, in an October report on Colombia-Venezuela relations (IHT). Given the ideological differences between the presidents of the two countries, it's a valid question.
The shift began with Chavez's recent offer to mediate talks between the Colombian government and the FARC, a guerrilla organization that holds several dozen hostages deep in the Colombian jungle. Analysts widely viewed the offer as an attempt by Chavez to improve his profile, and many were surprised when Uribe accepted. Attempts to hold talks have stalled thus far over security guarantees. But Michael Shifter of the Inter-American Dialogue says the deal could end up strengthening (LAT) Uribe's image both at home and abroad. The move may be riskier for Chavez. He has the leverage to successfully mediate with the FARC, writes Mary Anastasia O'Grady in the Wall Street Journal, so if he fails to do so it will damage his credibility internationally.
Economic ties between the neighbors are also growing. Colombia is Venezuela's second-largest trading partner, and Colombian exports to Venezuela have grown nearly 50 percent this year. On October 12, a natural-gas pipeline opened (BNAmericas) to transport Colombian natural gas to Venezuela. Uribe also has expressed interest in joining the Bank of the South, a Chavez-inspired development bank set for inauguration on November 3.
Not all of the economic activity flowing between the two countries is aboveboard. The Washington Post reports Colombian drug-lords are increasingly using Venezuela as a stopover for cocaine shipments. In the State Department's 2007 International Narcotics Strategy Report, President Bush identified Venezuela as having "failed demonstrably" to adhere to international counternarcotics agreements. The United States continues to fund a robust counternarcotics program in Colombia, but Congress balked before approving this year's aid, noting that after six years, "the availability and price of cocaine on America's streets remain unchanged."
This mild criticism pales in comparison to congressional opposition to a proposed U.S. free trade agreement with Colombia. Despite heavy lobbying from the Colombian government and intense efforts by the White House, Democratic legislators continue to raise concerns (FT) about the country's labor and environmental practices. The White House now argues that passing the deal will weaken Chavez's influence in the region. Some in Congress seem to agree, but others are skeptical. "Nobody likes Chávez, but I don't think a bogeyman is going to get people excited into voting for these trade deals," Rep. Charles B. Rangel (D-NY) tells the New York Times.
With the trade deal on the rocks, Uribe might move even closer to Chavez. There are long-standing animosities between the two countries, but the leaders do share some similarities. Chavez intends to govern indefinitely, and Uribe may run for a third term as president in 2010, although he says he has no plans to do so. Both men have moved to expand the power of the executive branch, suggests an Angus Reid analysis. Yet other observers argue there will be limits to any friendship between the two leaders and say any shift by Uribe is merely pragmatic (Miami Herald). The United States may be engaged in some pragmatic moves of its own: the new U.S. ambassador to Venezuela met with Chavez on October 29 to discuss expanding counternarcotics cooperation, an idea put forward by a Council Special Report on U.S.-Venezuela relations in 2006.

This Is How Taylor Swift Gets Ya
Every once in a while Taylor Swift shows up to a red carpet event looking uncharacteristically hot to the point that you completely forget she's a bear trap set to snare your leg into sexless evenings of watching Antiques Roadshow until you escape and she writes an entire album that makes you sound like a child molester. Which was all entirely pointless information for me to write because your penis is still going, "Hmm, I could make this work…" And that's how you have a mommy and daddy who visibly hate each other. The End.

What is a Therapy Dog?
Do you know anything about DOGS Victoria's therapy dogs?
Neither did I until recently when I was invited to a morning tea with this group of volunteers.
For many years, a group of members were visiting various aged care homes, but as they began to talk to each other, decided that there was a real need for their services and that they should become a little more structured and form the DOGS Victoria therapy dog Group.
This has finally happened and now, under the DOGS Victoria banner, the initial small group of dedicated people has risen to a somewhat larger team who, with their dogs, regularly visit many care homes from Berwick to Rosebud, Toorak and Sydenham.
These visits by the therapy dogs and their handlers are making peoples lives a little brighter with visits from many diverse breeds including Rottweiler, Labrador Retriever, Great Dane, Borzoi, Corgi, Kelpie and Keeshond.
All of the dogs are tested for their suitability to deal with many of the unexpected things that they will encounter in their visits.
Things that they will not normally come across in everyday life like, wheelchairs, walking frames, walking sticks and hospital equipment.
They must also be sensitive to the ways of the elderly and infirmed.
The residents are so interested in "their" therapy dogs. Recently Kay and her Borzoi
(who do a regular visit to a home in Toorak) were invited to take part in a fashion show.
This was written up in the newspaper and clippings were collected and put up on their notice board - a real highlight for the residents!
We do know that there are many members who are visiting hospitals and homes that are not part of the DOGS Victoria therapy dog group, perhaps you should contact DOGS Victoria and come under the therapy dogs umbrella. This way you will be afforded all the benefits of the DOGS Victoria insurance and not be exposed to any risk of litigation.
If you think that you might like to volunteer your time and join the DOGS Victoria therapy dogs, you will need to be available during daytime hours, so either not working or a part time worker, if you meet this criteria
send Nicky an email
or ring 9822 0887 and I'm sure she will be pleased to hear from you.
Please keep in mind that Nicky coordinates this program as a volunteer in between all the rest of the demands on her time, so please be patient when awaiting a return email or phone call. Nicky does not work in the DOGS Victoria office.
Gwen Ford
Therapy Dogs reaches out to even more people
The DOGS Victoria therapy dogs have traditionally visited residents in aged care homes. The benefit of having these dogs visit is undeniable and program organiser Nicky Abell wanted to share those benefits with even more people. She is always working to expand the reach of the therapy dog program.
Clinton, a Mastiff
is one dog fulfilling this new role by visiting patients in a psychiatric ward in Berwick.
Therapy dogs will continue to visit aged care facilities while including hospitals and other institutions as they grow in future.

After returning to the United States, Evans began to realize that the artistic material he was looking for was right in front of himon the streets and in middle-class apartments.

I have only one question: first you said: "we just want game-ready characters, vehicles, and buildings." And later: "Must be a character or a vehicle."
Are we allowed to make buildings?
I couldn't wait to make a ''entry'', sorry..
Here is my Green Lantern Ring:
Ow and btw a catagory which I would like is gardening equipment/tools.. (don't ask me why)
Wow! I haven't been active on 3docean for a while.. but when I read this thread I can't wait to participate in the contest.
I used to do the speed modelling contests (SMC) on 3dtotal, don't know if anyone know them? They had great topics..
Anyway, are we still going do the unofficial contest with gadgets/devices? Or are we waiting till 3DO's birthday ends and they will launch a contest? Or both of course..
Will post a gadget/device soon
2) CGtextures can be used, but it's not allowed to resell.. Check cgtextues.com under the tab about -> license you can find more info!
Good luck!
congrats to the lucky fellows!
I really do hope the survey brought some insight on how to improve 3DO!
I guess they can't decide who won..
But i'm very curious to know!
Filled in the form as well! Good opertunity to give feed-back!
Go Envato!
Nice! I wasn't sure if this was okey to do.. I thought it could be seen as non-exclusive.. Apperently not, i will start uploading some images right away!
The analytics are down for a few days now. Why hasn't any envato staff responded what exactly is going on?
Would like to see them up again !
Did you sent him the link to this thread.. I think he will pay after reading what horrible things he might engage in the future..

He saluted and stood at attention, while Pachmann looked him over.
But the moment Pachmann came on he drove the mood clean out of us.
Leaving the ferry, on the other side, the car at once plunged into a tangle of by-streets, and Pachmann half drew the curtains.
It was only to separate him from her that he had been sent with Pachmann!
So let us call Pachmann, a survival of an older school, a charming school.
The door of the wireless-house opened and Pachmann appeared.
"No; I cannot understand it," and Pachmann mopped his face again.
"And we are here to carry out that agreement," Pachmann added.
He did not like Pachmann, and also, perhaps, he found the jesting reference to the royal love affairs in bad taste.
Pachmann paused for a moment and wiped his glistening forehead.

Salon Perfect Glitter Crackle Polish Review and Swatch
Written by cassandraj, Posted in Product Review, Swatches
I saw this at Walmart and couldn't resist!
Price: $2.98
Where to Buy: Walmart
- several colors
- first glitter crackle I've seen
- widely available
- dries somewhat matte, not shiny
- not a great crackle polish
- not a great glitter polish
This polish comes in a cylindrical bottle with a good amount of polish, 3 oz. Wand is medium-sized and writing on the glitter polish packaging is hard to read.
This is an inexpensive polish. The formula is runny but the sparkle factor is outrageous. I layered Cracked Emerald over Hard Candy's "Envy" (super dark green, almost black) and liked the results. The polish is nothing out of the ordinary. Good idea, poor execution. As a crackle polish, it's not great. As a glitter polish, it's not great. It dries to a somewhat matte finish, not glossy at all but the green luminescence is high, especially over a dark color. Once it's dry, it looks like a not-so-great glitter polish with holes in it. I'm not a big fan of this. Up close, you can definitely tell it's a glitter crackle. But the observable effect to those around you will be kinda 'meh'.
Save your money or try one of the solid colors.

If you are going with children I would think again, staff clearly lack the skills to create a happy atmosphere for children. Stick to one of the big chain cinemas who have better choice of films, clean and tidy premises and staff that care.
