Good evening,
I really want to get into responsive web design. My goal is to launch websites quicker that are mobile friendly and great for different screen resolutions. Help me. I'm a noob. My head is spinning from all the options out there. :flippy:
Donate to the needy with your genius
None. Code the template yourself.
Frameworks tend to introduce more complexity than you need. Responsive CSS is not hard to do.
IE 6,7,8 etc...
These are not very welcoming of responsive design.
Once the site is built can I easily add jQuery sliders, effects or animations?
Yes, although things like sliders are not so easy to make responsive, so use them with care.
[In Madea Voice] Hellerrrrrrr
Ralph, I was referring to which css frameworks listed above are the best options to learn and the pros & cons for each. Some of the one listed I think don't work in IE.
I do agree they all appear overly complicated. I'm just tired of hand-coding websites from scratch. Is there a way I can create my own system to launch websites quicker? I was hoping a CSS framework could help with this
Thank you for your opinion.
Partly why I said what I did is that people come here with all sorts of problems with frameworks—problems they don't need to have, IMHO. I quite enjoy doing layouts from scratch, so I guess everyone is different. But I'm sure you could abstract a few basic designs of your own that you can adapt to various projects. That way at least you know how they work.
Anyhow, that's just my view, and I'm sure you'll get other perfectly valid perspectives.
I'm also in the middle of investigating the various responsive frameworks. http://gumbyframework.com is another you can add to the list.
And also going through the decision making process of whether to choose a framework or code my own from scratch.
Love your gumby framework!
Not mine, just another I found around the traps.
As Ralph said, frameworks introduce a lot of things that are not needed for your website and make things more complex. The best way is to code the layout from scratch.
However, I do understand your impatience. It's like when you start attending music classes, you want to skip on the initial notes and get on with the melody playing!
Out of the frameworks you listed, zurb has quite a community around it. It is also updated very frequently. Although, you'd have to spend quite a time learning it!
But I would add a few more to learn from on how to start your own:
I've been liking Zurb, it certainly speeds up my sites, and coding it from scratch would take a lot more time. Also a lot more learning if you do not know how to code responsive designs, although as stated there would be some learning with Zurb, once you have it you're pretty much sorted. Some issues I've run into are using multiple instances of things on the same page, such as their Orbit slider which can't be done (they say). It is responsive though. I'm sticking with them for now as they updated recently and things like that keep me happy.
Pick one that is the easiest to follow. I am all for the do not use frameworks and stuff but there is a lot to learn from them. Yes, eventually you should write your own or develop a system that you can pick up and not reinvent the wheel every time you start a new project.
I avoided all these systems till I gave bootstrap a go - that too was way too bloated for my taste but I persevered and learned and in the process I sort of developed a grid boilerplate so to speak that when I start a new project, I have my basic CSS written out and am not writing float:left's and clear floats and widths etc for each new project.
So bottom line is, pick an easy one, sift out the crap work on your own. The trick is to keep it simple, readable and reusable.

A PROJECT demonstrating flood management has been shortlisted at the 2014 Climate Week Awards.
The Holnicote Multi- Objective Flood Managements is one of four finalists in the 'Best Campaign or educational initiative category'.
The National Trust, JBA Consulting and Penny Anderson Associates delivered the project.
It is based around the villages of Allerford and Bossington, which sit at the mouth of two rivers as they flow into the Bristol Channel.
They have both been victims of flash flooding. Set up in 2009, the scheme was to gather evidence for how land management changes.
The National Trust approach is to work to make space for water and make use of the natural environment. Some of the changes included changes upstream on Holnicote seek to divert water and limit the impact downstream.
With the backing of farmers who are tenants of the land, changes were made to allow some fields to flood, slowing down the speed and volume of water in the rivers.
Data from recent events is still being analysed but the early results are very encouraging.
Lessons learned from this project will be transferred to other catchments to help manage flood risk.
Nigel Hester, National Trust project manager said: "Since 2009, the project team have worked hard, in partnership with the local community to deliver a scheme that clearly demonstrates the advantages of working with nature throughout a complete catchment to achieve reduced flood risk and environmental gain.
"We are delighted to have reached the finals stage of the Climate Week Awards in recognition of a project that underlines the importance of managing water to make the environment more resilient to the effects of climate change."
Funding for the £1m project has come from Defra, the Environment Agency and the National Trust and was delivered by JBA Consulting and Penny Anderson Associates.
The winner will be announced at the launch of Climate Week 2014 on March 4.

We just made over 1000 back links manually last year.. but they disppeared 90 percent this year.. so many of my ranking on googledown to 10 pages out from first one..
So we have to keep recreat back links by hand guadually now...It's really a bord, hard way for links building.. I just want to know how many yearsyour links existing and can some one tell me a good way to make very long-term existing back links? at least can be existing over 2 - 3 years.. thanks alot.
For that you should be use article posting, press release submission, blog posting. Those seo techniques are hold your backlinks for long-term.
Well in order to make long term links you will have to first go for the authority sites like web 2.0 sites and you will have to find the sources like forum posting links, article submission links, anchor text through blog posts and blog comments, directory submission and also you can contact the websites that are in your niche and you can do link exchange with them and also you should always try to target the high pr sites because they are the good source for the long term backlinks.
web 2.0 submissions. I've also used a service where I hired high PR links to point at my site. It worked wonders but obvioulsyy as soon as you stop paying them the monthly rental you lose the links. its okay for ecommerce site as I think of it as no more than say an advertising cost but for an info website or adsense website not pulling in at leat 80 -200 a day maybe not worth it.
I paid $30 a month for that service from memory but it did shoot me from page 10 to page 1 within 2 weeks.
What exactly do you mean by "web 2.0 sites"?
Sorry, but that is not going to help you. Any forum worth its salt is going to mark external links as nofollow, just as this forum does, and they will be useless as backlinks. Moreover, dropping links in forum posts is probably a great way to get yourself banned for spamming.
Any links which you can easily obtain for yourself will be regarded as worthless, or nearly so, by the search engines. You need high quality content on a well-constructed site to gain links from other high-quality sites who will choose to link to you. Link exchanges and other such schemes are unlikely to benefit your site. See Google's guidelines on these.
Check my link above - buying links which pass PR is a violation of Google's Webmaster Guidelines.
Building links manually is a waste of time. Try to invest your time in building engaging content instead of trying to focus on one signal of Google's metrics. Engage with your audience. If you don't have anything of value, then you might be needing to think again about your whole project.
To answer your question though, the only way to make sure your backlinks stick is if you own the sites that hosts them. Forums, Web 2.0 and stuff might help a bit but you need seriously to drive real traffic to see that big boost in your rankings. Start up with social media marketing as it is an easier path with more fruitful future.
If you have created good SEO back links those links will be stable for long time.There is no issue in it.Only quality does matter nothing else.
Make friends with fellow webmasters/bloggers in your industry, and do whatever you can to impress reporters. Having your company featured in articles on websites for local publications is a great resource.
The most "gameable" aspect of SEO nowadays is Local SEO. Submitting your site to high profile Citation Sites and Content Distributors will give your site a lot of backlinks that will last and benefit your local ranking.
When filling out the information for your local listings, it is important to remember than branding is more important than using local keywords. As long as you give a good description, Google will be smart enough to know what your company should rank for, and they prefer to promote website's which are well branded.
So, who is going to build the links for you? or you are indicating towards automated backlinking? Whereas people are screaming to stop the use of automated link building tools after penguin update. If you only create the best quality content and post it in your site, how the people will know about it without marketing?
Ya backlinks don't count for much these days. That is unless you have a valuable site that people naturally link to and throw around. Google rightfully finally realized they were single handidly destroying the web with that ranking.
Google wants to promote sites that are so interesting and informative that other webmasters and bloggers want to link to them to share them with their friends as a resource. This is one of the ways they judge "natural backlink patterns".
If you loose 900 back links when you created 1000 in just one year then your doing something totally wrong..... or you payed someone who had a network and removed you when you stopped paying....that would be totally wrong as well... If you want to get quality back links then there is only one option... go work for it... go join your bloggin community, find people who blog about china caps etc... and ask if you can write a text for them with a back link as a reward... i know it takes a lot of time, but nowadays content on other website with a link in it works so damn well... it's incredible how fast you can rank with those links.
Yes.... you rightly observed that some backlinks are automatically disappear from the hosting site which may result huge downfall to your Website traffics and google page ranking. Generally, i like to say you that never use automatic submission process. New Google panda system can give you a negative page ranking for your bad backlinks creation methods. Learn how to improve Google Page Rank method very carefully . In my view, guest posting, forum posting, comments are good methods .
We can build long-term back links by using several White hat SEO techniques: - Forum Submissions- Bookmarking Submissions- Classified Ad Posting- Blog Creation and Commenting- Article Marketing- Social Media Optimization
Presumably before you posted that you took the time to read the rest of the thread, including my explanation (post #5) of why forum posting will not help you build backlinks, and why any link you can post for yourself is of little value.
Clearly you disagree with my arguments, so I should be interested to hear your views, and what evidence you have to back them up.
I read about it too. But how many blog posts or contents are getting shared in that way? Only popular blog site's contents are getting shared in that natural way. But, they too have done marketing by themselves to bring their site into recent position. What if I create a new blog and post some real high quality posts in it? How people will know about it? If people does not know about my blog post, how they will share it?
If you will create a new blog and post some real high quality posts in it, how will people know about it? You can promote it through Social Media. That is what is going on with the popular blog sites, they were successful in building their network/community because they are as what alabamaseo said, "so interesting and informative". Learn who will benefit from your site's contents and reach out to them.
That is ONE way people will know about your blog posts and hopefully they will share it to others too.
By the way, this is only an answer to your last post, and not to your first thread starter about backlinks. Just clarifying in case my reply is misunderstood as a way to make a successful and lasting backlink.
create some presentations about your site and share it, do blogging,article submission.use g+ for sharing your activities . get google authorship, it is very useful.
You can build long term permanent backlinks by writing articles and submitting them to leading directories without no-follow.

It is important for pregnant women with an active
tuberculosis (TB) infection to receive treatment,
because the TB infection is dangerous to the developing fetus.1
Women being treated for active TB with first-line medicines can
continue to breast-feed. The small amounts of medicine that get into the breast
milk do not appear to harm a baby. Medical experts recommend that
breast-feeding women should also take vitamin B6 during TB treatment.

I have written a number of times about the importance of good
story telling in marketing legal services (see here and here). The main concept is that telling
a story is a much better way to communicate your expertise than
documenting what you do. Not only will prospective clients and
referral sources find your stories a lot more interesting than a
dry recitation of your areas of legal expertise, but referral
sources are MUCH more likely to understand what you do. More
importantly clients and referral sources are much more likely to
REMEMBER what you do when a referral opportunity comes along.
We all know some great story tellers (i.e. people that can keep
our attention for hours). Most of us do not have that ability and
never will. The good news, however, is that we don't need to be
great story tellers in order to be successful; rather, we just need
to be good at telling a quick anecdote that illustrates what we do
and how we can be of help to an individual or business.
Telling a good story or anecdote that illustrates what you do
requires preparation. In fact, even the greatest storytellers in
the world do a lot of preparation; but they make it look so easy
that you think they are doing it off the cuff. You would never go
into a courtroom trying to wing it for an entire trial; so why do
we feel we can wing it when it comes to telling stories that are
intended to sell our services? Here are some other useful tips in
drafting your own stories:
Finally, do not feel like your stories have to demonstrate that
you work on extremely fascinating and high powered cases or deals.
The chances are, most of the people you talk to, will have no
opportunity to refer that work to you. Instead, give them a good
example of a situation they are likely to encounter. If you do,
then you increase the likelihood that you will be the one to get
the referral.

The Crap We Missed – Monday 6.17.13
Welcome to Monday's The Crap We Missed, brought to you by Saddle Up, the new buddy chick flick by the producers of Bridesmaids, starring Sarah Jessica Parker and Katherine Heigl. We've also got Joe Jonas in the bravest performance of his career, Prince Harry showing Kate Middleton how many of her friends have cellphone pics of his dick, and Mick Jagger staring into the void, probably pondering his contribution to rock music and his life's legacy.

Professional basketball stars might earn millions for winning games, but managing those millions can be a losing battle.
Just ask Evan Turner, a forward-guard for the Philadelphia 76ers. Late last week, Turner posted a photo of an ATM receipt with an available checking balance of $-48.81 on his Instagram account. A sarcastic caption accompanied the photo: "Bank account look like im ready for early retirement…" Based on the receipt, it looks like the former first-round draft pick attempted to withdraw $50 from his checking account, which appears to have had a whopping balance of $2.69 before the transaction.
To frame this online display of Turner's banking troubles, here's a bit of context. Lately, Turner has been the subject of potential trade rumors. The franchise did not sign him to a contract extension by the Oct. 31 deadline, and Turner appears to be frustrated with the talk surrounding his future. This photo may be a suggestion for writers (like me) to write about something other than putting Turner on the trading block. In fact, Turner's next post included the caption, "Lame bloggers should get a life. #writeaboutthat"
Unfortunately, I haven't gotten a life. Instead, I'm writing about Turner's personal finances. I'm guessing that he has another account. In fact, he probably has many other accounts. The star will earn more than $6.7 million this year. With that kind of salary, I think he may be able to avoid the overdraft fee.
Still, the photo is an important reminder for average banking customers: It's not a good idea to post about your personal finances. Turner's photo includes the last four digits of his checking account. In today's world, cyber thieves can easily pounce on this snippet of information to drain your bank account. Although, in Turner's case, it seems those criminals would not get very far.
How do you keep up with your bank account balance? Do you log in to your account? Or do you do it the old-fashioned way and write your transactions in a checkbook?

Although the late Harvard University paleontologist Stephen Jay Gould is one of the leading proponents of evolution theory, he criticizes evolutionary biologists in stuffing scientific literature with non-evident tales. Gould describes such stories in his following words:
Evolutionary biology has been severely hampered by a speculative style of argument that records anatomy and ecology and then tries to construct historical or adaptive explanations for why this bone looked like that or why this creature lived hereC9 Scientists know that these tales are stories; unfortunately, they are presented in the professional literature where they are taken too seriously and literally. Then they become [scientific] "facts" and enter the popular literatureC9.195
Gould, an evolutionist paleontologist, was also one of the leading theoreticians of the punctuated model of evolution. (See Punctuated evolution.) Phillip Johnson, one of the world's leading critics of the theory of evolution, describes Gould as the "Gorbachev of Darwinism." Mikhail Gorbachev sought to revise the system in the former Soviet Union out of a belief that it was imperfect. But in fact, the problems he regarded as imperfections actually stemmed from the nature of the system itself, and Communism finally collapsed entirely.

Hey there, time traveller!
This article was published 5/10/2013 (1417 days ago), so information in it may no longer be current.
CALGARY -- So, you know how when you're watching a cheap horror movie and the cheerleader goes for a walk in the dark house and you just know she's about to get her head chopped off by an intruder -- but you're still kind of startled when it happens anyway?
This was like that.
You could see this slaughter coming from 1,500 kilometres and a week away -- a season-high 16-point spread told that tale -- and yet there was still something stunning in the Calgary Stampeders' 38-11 throttling of the Winnipeg Blue Bombers at McMahon Stadium Saturday.
Maybe it was how defenceless the Bombers defence looked in the face of a Calgary offensive onslaught that looked like men toying with boys?
Maybe it was how quick the Bombers rolled over, yielding two TDs and a field goal on Calgary's first three possessions and falling behind 17-3 before the first quarter was over? Or maybe it was just a simple matter of always being surprised by how much that cheerleader bleeds?
Whatever it was, this one was a bloodbath and the only small mercy that came of it is there is now an end in sight to this horror show of a 2013 season, with the 2-12 Bombers now facing playoff elimination when they face the Alouettes in Montreal on Thanksgiving Monday.
Go ahead, give it to me straight
The Bombers loss to Calgary was their fourth in a row since a win over Saskatchewan in the Banjo Bowl. It was also their sixth road loss in a row since a win in Montreal in Week 2 and their 11th loss in their last 12 games. And the Bombers have been outscored 91-28 in their last two games.
Oh, and it was also the 11th consecutive Bombers loss in a West Division stadium, a drought that goes back to July 2011.
Wow, that is bad. Was there any reason for hope?
Look, this season is over. But yeah, a Bombers offence that has been almost completely useless all season actually showed some traction, generating 194 yards in the first half and finally showing signs of a running game, with RB Will Ford rushing for 156 yards and returning a kickoff 100 yards for a TD -- Ford's second kickoff return for a TD this season.
That doesn't sound so bad. So how the heck did the Bombers lose so bad if they put up those kind of numbers on offence?
Well, for starters, all that offence came in fits and spurts instead of sustained drives and so didn't result in much in the way of points.
Quarterback Max Hall went 15-of-34 for 147 yards and one interception and wasn't great -- but then what Bombers QB has been in the last couple of years? Still, Hall did move the ball at times, had a couple of long passes dropped by his receivers and the lone interception he threw was Winnipeg's only turnover -- a huge improvement for a team that was a league-worst minus-28 in turnover ratio coming into the game.
But the larger problem was a porous Bombers defence that was just as hopeless against the Calgary run -- the Stamps had 261 yards rushing -- as the Calgary pass -- they had 361 yards through the air.
Put it together and it was -- by far -- the worst performance by a Bombers defence in recent memory.
Wonderful, so now what?
Rest easy Bombers fans -- this will all be over soon.
The combination on Saturday of a Montreal win over Edmonton -- which improved the Als to 6-8 -- and the Bombers loss to Calgary leaves the Bombers eight points behind the Als for the third and final playoff spot in the East Division.
One more Montreal win or one more Winnipeg loss this season will eliminate the Bombers and officially shift what's left of this miserable season into a rebuilding mission.
Perhaps fittingly, the Bombers next play in Montreal on Oct. 14.

Peel and Eat Shrimp
Peel and Eat Shrimp – the easiest shrimp recipe made with butter, beer and spices. Takes 10 mins to make and a staple for summertime!
Every summer, I make sure that I go to the beach as much as I can and dine in at the many seafood restaurants or seafood shacks along the beach. Some of my favorite places to eat are the fun and casual seafood restaurants at Newport Beach, Huntington Beach and Redondo Beach. Even though the restaurants here are not quite a "shack" like the ones in New England, they serve pretty decent seafood and shellfish that basically scream summer. My favorite dishes are steamer clams, crab cakes, and peel and eat shrimp. Nothing delights me better than having a meal of fresh seafood, sipping down cold drinks, and have fun conversations with my company while soaking up the sun and warmth.
Last year, when my eldest sister came to visit, I took her to one of the seafood restaurants at Santa Monica. I ordered a big bucket of peel and eat shrimp, and we just sat there, peeling and eating. The experience was uniquely American to my eldest sister and she really enjoyed the food.
The memory from last summer prompted me to share this peel and eat shrimp recipe, which I plan to make for my guests when I have my summer party next weekend. It's going to be fun, and I know everyone could always have some peel and eat shrimp, cold beer, and great conversations during summertime. So lay out the brown paper, fill the buckets with the sea bounty, and dig in. Enjoy and don't forget to check out my summer recipes!

The Senate's proposal to raise Medicare Part B premiums for affluent beneficiaries has hit a snag. As written, the measure would require the means test to be administered by HHS. The White House insists that it would be simpler and more effective to have the IRS administer it. The White House is right. But the GOP leadership, worried an IRS-administered means test could be misconstrued as a tax hike, refuses to acquiesce.
This is a dispute without substance. A premium hike is not a tax hike, no matter what agency administers it. The White House should help allay GOP political concerns by stating publicly that it understands this fact. Congressional negotiators should make the sensible change the White House wants-- and Congress and the President should pass this important measure into law.
Imaginary Tax Hikes
The tax hike issue has bedeviled the means-testing debate from day one. To avoid the semblance of raising taxes, the Senate Finance Committee initially concocted an awkward and unworkable plan to means-test deductibles, which aren't payable to the government. After critics assailed the plan, the full Senate adopted the current and much fairer plan to means-test premiums. The obvious way to administer the plan is to have IRS collect the money. Instead, the Senate would have HHS collect it. As Majority Leader Trent Lott explains, involving IRS in the means test "turns it into a tax."
No it doesn't. Part B premiums are not taxes. They are fees that beneficiaries pay to participate voluntarily in a highly subsidized insurance program. Currently, these fees cover only one-quarter of full Part B costs. The balance is paid for with a direct general revenue subsidy-- the only genuine tax involved. That subsidy is projected to cost taxpayers $383 billion over the next five years, 50 to 100 times more than the means-tested premium hike Congress is agonizing over.
The problem with having HHS collect the new means-tested premiums is that it possesses neither the data nor the infrastructure to do so. A whole new bureaucracy would have to be set up to accomplish a task that the IRS could accomplish by adding a single line to the current 1040 form. Even when it's up and running, moreover, HHS would probably be much less effective than IRS. In fact, the CBO projects it would only collect half as much in premiums over the next five years.
Apparently, some conservatives are more spooked by imaginary tax hikes than the prospect of creating a needless and cumbersome new federal bureaucracy.
A Bigger Misunderstanding
All of this points to a bigger misunderstanding. If politicians are afraid the public will confuse a means test with a tax hike it's because many Americans believe what's being reduced is something they own and have somehow paid for. But they don't and they haven't. Again, the Part B premium does not come close to covering the Part B benefit. In any case, the benefit, and therefore the supposed "tax," is voluntary -- that is, you can avoid any contact with any federal agency by refusing it. As for Part A, the Supreme Court has repeatedly ruled that in programs like Medicare (and Social Security) the payroll taxes government levies give participants no contractual claim to future benefits.
Let's face it: Medicare is a pay-as-you-go transfer. If our Uncle Bob or Fred gives us a less generous gift than expected, he hasn't taxed us. If Uncle Sam gives us a less generous benefit, he hasn't taxed us either.
The Public's Good Sense
Polls show that means-testing enjoys far more public support than any other approach to entitlement reform. This is a testament to the public's good sense: Americans understand that entitlement costs need to be controlled, but want to preserve a floor of protection.
Let's hope politicians show as much sense. Means-testing Medicare premiums would help correct the huge imbalance between the benefits being promised to tomorrow's elderly and the taxes tomorrow's workers will be able to pay. It would be tragic if Congress lets the opportunity slip away because of a misapplied scruple.

Top performers from Day 1 at NHSI
CARY, N.C. -- With temperatures hovering around 50 degrees, it was difficult for any of the prospects on hand at the National High School Invitational to heat up, but that doesn't mean there weren't some standout performances at the first day of the tournament hosted by USA Baseball.
The best individual performance of the day may have come from a Class of 2014 prospect. Harvard-Westlake's Jack Flaherty, who pitched very well here in last year's NHSI, was at it again. Facing Eustis High School and top prospect Chris Okey (No. 45 on MLB.com's Top 50 Draft Prospects list), the junior right-hander tossed a complete game (they play seven innings here) three-hit shutout. Flaherty walked none and struck out 13 as Harvard-Westlake, last year's runner-up, won, 3-0.
Despite the loss, scouts were impressed with Okey, who went 1-for-2 at the plate and did a nice job working with lefty Alex Hagner, a Class of 2013 arm committed to the University of Florida. One of the many scouts keying in on Okey said, "He catches and throws well and he's a good line drive hitter."
Okey may have gotten the highest overall marks of all the catching prospects in Cary on Wednesday. Nick Ciuffo also played well, driving in a run and throwing out a runner, for Lexington, but there might be some debate among scouts over who is the better all-around backstop.
"He's bigger and more physical than Okey, but Okey is the more advanced one as far as catching," the scout said.
Mater Dei's Jeremy Martinez, who can call the USA Baseball facility a second home of sorts -- given the amount of time he's spent playing for the national team and in last year's NHSI -- went 2-for-4 as Mater Dei beat 2014 prospect Justus Sheffield and Tullahoma High School, 11-4. Mater Dei won this tournament last year. Martinez has always played well here, but he has struggled this spring. Perhaps a visit to Cary is just what the doctor ordered.
Even though the big Austin Meadows vs. Stephen Gonsalves matchup didn't provide major fireworks or results, at least one scout remained impressed with Meadows' toolset. The Grayson (Ga.) center fielder went 1-for-2, doubling off Gonsalves after getting hit by a pitch and walking against the Cathedral Catholic left-hander.
"He's going to go way up there," the scout said of Meadows. "He has very good tools and they all have projection. He can be more aggressive at the plate, but he's the best prospect at this tournament and he looked like it because of his tools."
A couple of other noteworthy performers:
• Milton High School's Dylan Cease, a 2014 prospect, was 92-94 mph, touching 95 mph, with an average breaking ball, during his two innings of work.
• Bingham High School's top player might be Brennon Lund, and the leadoff hitter went 1-for-3 with three runs scored and a stolen base. But right-hander Chase Tavonatti may have stolen the show by pitching shutout ball against T.C. Roberson.
• Lexington's Josh Reagan, throwing to Ciuffo, tossed a shutout against Florida Christian. The South Carolina recruit gave up just four hits and a walk while striking out five.

Mixing Mediums - Collage, Painting and Photography by Holly Roberts
MOPA has always been an institution that showcases photographers who push the limits of the art form. Whether it's through the subjects they photograph, the message of their images, or their treatment of the medium, we look to inspire our visitors by showing them something unexpected and meaningful. This Februray, we will be opening Unusual Suspects: Paintings and Photographs by Holly Roberts , an exhibition that will expose our audience to a different take on photography.
For those unfamiliar with this artist, Holly Roberts has had a long career using the technique of collaging her own photographs onto painted canvases. The result is incredible. Her work contains richly layered narratives that are unassuming at first glance, but the closer you look, the more the story will unfold. As someone who's been photographing since I was in high school, I am constantly challenged to stay inspired and creative. Roberts' work does just that, but also brings back a huge part of my coming of age. Collage. I recently moved and was faced with really sifting through my "stuff". Surprisingly, it was a lot of fun! Almost everything from my teenage years has been collaged - binders of ancient negatives, journals, artwork, etc. It's amazing, because I'm able to recall the process of working on each item and why I chose those images and it all comes flooding back!
For Holly Roberts, her images also serve as an outlet. Working on this exhibition has allowed me to dive deeper into the meaning of her work and the intense process of creation she welcomes to bring each pice to its final stage. I've also been reading her blog where she openly recounts the tale of individual images. Her latest entry, Winter Kill 2008, is about one of the pieces that will be in the exhibition at MOPA. And if you go back a bit further, you can read about Passing 2009, which will also be on display. After you've gotten over your post holiday buzz, stop by MOPA and check out the exhibition.

FANS of The Block, this is a spoiler alert. Look away now if you don't want to know what happens next.
Despite the best efforts of Nine to keep the future of its top-rating reality show a secret, Fairfax Media can reveal the network's plan for the biggest twist in the history of the series. Not even the contestants are in on the reveal yet.
In a bid to reboot the show's ageing formula, next year's crop of amateur renovators won't be tasked with something as easy as fixing up a few derelict houses or flats.
Ratcheting up the difficulty - and, it hopes, the drama - Nine is planning to set them loose with power tools and decorating budgets on an entire six-storey building in South Melbourne.
The task, it appears, will be to transform a drab motel into a high-end apartment tower in little more than two months.
The network refuses to discuss its plans for the 2013 series or confirm The Block will be set at the Park Street building. In fact, it won't even confirm that Melbourne is the setting for the sixth series.
But property records show production company Watercress has spent $6.71 million for the four-star bizMotel, which closed its doors a few months ago.
It is the most ambitious and expensive project for the producers, who spent only about $4 million to buy the four South Melbourne terrace houses used in the most recent series.
Security fencing and scaffolding have already gone up around the building, with construction crews apparently stripping out the walls, fixtures, electrics and plumbing before they are handed over to the contestants. Filming is expected to begin in late January.
Each floor is about 25 per cent larger than the average Australian home, which could see them transformed into luxury penthouse-style apartments. With so much space to work with, it's also possible more couples could be added to the standard four-couple roster seen in previous series. They could even be tasked with creating a luxury boutique hotel rather than individual units.
Secrecy is kept tight in a bid to boost hype and protect The Block's position as a ratings winner and advertising revenue cash cow.
Nine has had its own problems sustaining interest in The Block's format, which was staged in Bondi in 2003 and Manly in 2004 before being cancelled.
After a six-year hiatus and change of hosts, the show returned to Sydney at the height of the 2010 property boom and rated well. It has found enduring success since relocating to property-mad Melbourne, first in Richmond in 2011 and then South Melbourne in 2012.
An average of 4.16 million people nationwide tuned in to the last finale, including 1.02 million viewers in Melbourne.
The properties become tourist attractions during the show's run, with more than 100 people visiting them each day, including some who travel from interstate.
More than 20,000 self-described ''blockaholics'' lined up earlier this year for the chance to be one of the 2000 people allowed to walk through the South Melbourne properties during an open for inspection.
''Australians love anything to do with property, and being able to follow their favourite couple as they do the renovations from start to finish creates a very big, very loyal following,'' said Kay & Burton agent Alex Schiavo, who sold one of the homes last season.

Thread: What book are you reading?
I'm not sure about that. Miller, despite all his insane libertarian flaws, was saying something a bit deeper than usual with Batman. He made batman a far more psychological character with depth that didn't quite exist before. Though I agree better writers have gone on to do far more interesting stuff with Bats.
And I don't deny Miller did some amazing stuff, same with Martin. Hell, I think the early Jamie Lannister's POV chapters are one of the best "heel-face turns" in fantasy.Steam: Gundato

I always enjoyed Jamie and Tyrion chapters as the characters are fun but never really felt either character exactly had much depth to them.
As for Miller I'm increasingly suspicious of him as the only thing of his I actually liked was Dark Knight Returns and Year One. But reading them again knowing what a nutjob he is now I seem to always read more from it than when I was a kid.
Ned's the main character, right? So he should be strong and powerful and has plot armour and will surely come out on top and... nope. He has no power, and what little he does, he doesn't know how to use. He's a schmuck, pulled in by LF and the rest, and played like a... something that gets played. The idea that the lead character 'wins' is completely shattered. He does what he thinks is right, the decent, honourable thing, he sticks to his moral code and his honour and that really doesn't work out. He tried to be strong and good, and it availed him naught.
Ned dies. But it's OK readers! Robb has an army, and right on his side, and he's a brilliant commander in the field, and surely he'll get justice and... nope.
Sansa wants that Courtly dream, the Romance, to marry her fair prince and live happily ever after. Instead, she gets the reality of Courtly life... her prince is a monster, the Court is all about politics and intrigue and the Game of Thrones, and she's been pulled into it as a pawn, and looks likely to become a major player as Littlefinger 2.0. She'll get what she wants, to be a Lady of the Court, but it won't be what she was expecting.
Arya wants to be a badass killer, to get vengeance, to become a warrior. She's getting the chance, with the Faceless men... but to achieve it all she'll have to give up everything that is Arya, all her motivations, her identity. She'll get what she wants, but it's going to cost her the very things that have motivated her.
There's even the little ones... Lyanna, captured by the 'monstrous' Rhaegar, Damsel in the tower, a whole war started to rescue her (or was it?). But, Brandon and his father die, Ned arrives too late, and Rhaegar wasn't a monster in the first place.
Or, the Bear and the Maiden Fair and ALL of the references and nods to it, and the demolishing of the "Beauty = Good, Ugly = Bad" trope.

Finally finished DwD a day or two ago, after delaying reading it for literal months. The "major" twist didn't affect me nearly as much as my brother hoped it would (he's laughed at my reaction to every big event thus far) but even so, goddamn the last few chapters set up the next book magnificently IMO. Looking forward to it's eventual release 15 years from now!
I finished it recently too and am gorging on theories. Enjoyed despite it and Feast being slower than ASoS, though I agree with Unaco it's very much the start of part 2. Martin is not just a typical writer, definitely not defined by tropes so I'm not sure what Gundato's getting at.
Anyone got any favourite theories? I'm a fan of the Blackfyre one myself. There's just such a depth beneath what is being written. And I'm surprised people say Jaime doesn't have depth.

Been reading Steelheart. So far, I really like it. Reminds me a lot of Elantris in that it is largely about studying the underlying magic system and what not. Don't get me wrong, I love a little girl in a ghillie suit flying across a continent or a guy with a spear holding off an entire army. But there is something to the cold and methodical way that the Epics are studied and targeted.
Also, as of finding out why Meghan disliked David, I am pretty sure I know Steelheart's weakness: He loses his powers if people believe in him/praise him for what he does, and Steelheart really IS the good guy that David's father thought he was, he just has no choice but to play the monster if he wants to have the power to protect Newcago. Also, pretty sure David is an Epic from the way he wasn't spotted in the elevator shaft.
And, as always, it is fun to keep an eye open for Hoid.

Unaco you're a big fan of Malazan right? I'm starting it now and I am enjoying it despite it being reasonably hard to follow in places. Any tips on how to get through it? I struggle with where things are the most, I have no point of reference in my head yet.
I recently started on World War Z and I can't put it down, it's quite awesome. I think I like it so much because it reminds me a lot of the academic case studies from my Ethnic Conflict studies, it's just like that but... with zombies! Stuff like how it afffected the Israel and Palestine relations for instance, quite interesting and believable. Well researched, too.Comrade, Listen! The Glorious Commonwealth's first Airship has been compromised! Who is the saboteur? Who can be saved? Uncover what the passengers are hiding and write the grisly conclusion of its final hours in an open-ended, player-driven adventure. Dziekujemy! -- Karaski: What Goes Up...
Yeah it's a fun read. I love some of the stories, the escape from Japan one is just fantastic.
Heh. Finished Steelheart. Thoughts below:
I was way off, although I also don't think the full details are known just yet as it still seems strange that Steelheart would go out of his way to fake his atrocities when he was clearly perfectly capable of committing them. And his power being dependent on people fearing him doesn't explain why he made Newcago a comparatively decent place to live, which makes me suspect a Lord Ruler-esque "He wasn't ALL bad" in later books.
Also, I now suspect the reason for Nightwielder was to block out the rays of the sun/Calamity as a way to limit the number of Epics (it is conceivable that the radiation from the shard referred to as Calamity needs to be combined with sunlight to unlock Epic powers).
Either way, looking forward to Firefight in a year or so. And Hoid was either Diamond or wasn't in this book (it is a trilogy, he has time). If he was, then this would mark his most active role that isn't The Way of Kings (which is really the super-book that seems to tie the whole Cosmere together anyway).
[edit]And apparently it isn't in The Cosmere. Which explains a lot. Probably for the best since Vin and Wax and (I suspect by the end of book 2) Kaladin could EASILY drop pretty much any Epic, which makes this magic system not disturbingly overpowered.[/edit]

Reading In Cold Blood by Joe Abercrombie and have to say its pretty entertaining with the usual blacker anti-heroes if you call them heroes that have entertaining personalities and tics. It pretty much reads like a series of heist movies one more complicated then the other and getting more and more bloody as it goes along. Looking forward to continue reading the rest of the new books.

30-09-2013, 03:58 PM #1716I assume you mean "Best Served Cold". The story about revenge, right?
Be warned that the next one (The Heroes) is REALLY FUCKING DARK, even by Abercrombie's standards, but Red Country is actually quite good and is much more reminiscent of the original trilogy.
One of the best parts of the original trilogy was watching West and Ninefingers be brutally beaten down by the nonstop violence and vengeance while still coming out "human" (well, maybe not so much for Ninefingers...). Too many characters in The Heroes seemed to have existed just to be murdered or emotionally destroyed.
Hell, I would probably say that Red Country is "lighter and softer" than all of the previous books in the series. Which is pretty fucked up and weird, considering it is about a girl and her stepfather coming home to find their entire household murdered and her young siblings kidnapped.
I am now REALLY looking forward to Abercrombie's young adult books.

Still going through Children of Fire. So far so good, decently paced even though it's skipping many years, but I don't really mind. He's given himself 3 books to tell these stories and since the first few chapters are about the individual birth of the "children" in question, I don't really fancy reading seven tome sized books about their childhood and teen years.
My only issue so fair is through my own fault I'm reading it sporadically and as a result almost every time I come back to it I have to wonder "who is this guy again? Whats this part he's referring to?""Halo is designed to make the player think "I look like that, I am macho sitting in my undies with my xbox""

Genabackis is still an active campaign for the Malazans... the 12 major cities formed an alliance, joined with the locals and some others that wish to oppose the Empire. In relation to the rest of the Empire, it's to the East of Quon and 7Cities. For Gardens... you really only need to focus on the land between Pale and Darujhistan, but knowing where the other places that are mentioned (Blackdog forest, the Rhivi plains, where Caladan Brood is doing his thing) are located doesn't hurt. It's really all set in Darujhistan though.
Later books will, slowly, build up a more full picture of the Empire. The series largely takes place on the frontiers of the Empire, rather than in the Heartland though.
