Booking Conditions
Currently displaying deals for Delta Residences Sun Peaks. (Remove this filter.)
Sun Peaks exceeded all of our expectations.
Skiing was fantastic with a 2 meter base and regular top ups, we really enjoyed the glade skiing & the variety of groomed & ungroomed runs.
Good quality & variety of restaurants or a choice of pub or pizza food for cheaper meals plus a supermarket if you preferred to eat in.
Highlight was definitely the chocolate shop.
Our ski in ski out one bedroom apartment was spacious and extremely comfortable, with a good sized kitchen and full bathroom facilities.
Only issue was lack of wireless Internet in the rooms.
Would definitely return & recommend the resort & the accommodation.
My family of 4 with two boys 11 and 8 stayed at Delta residence skiing 9 of 10 days. The mountain was fantastic with essentially no lift cues. Why pay more elsewhere to stand in line?
Guest services were very accommodating and easy to deal with, voluntarily offering to reschedule a lesson that we were not able to take.
The Residences are well located and equipped. There is only one grocery store in the village but it was well stocked. The restaurants are close and good.
Overall heartily recommended as a ski destination
Sunpeaks is truly a Family friendly resort. Kids merrily roam unaccompanied around the village hunting for stickers or drooling over the latest and greatest.
Staff are easy going in the Canadian way. They will always give kids both big and small the time of day.
There is a great variety of runs. Whether green, blue or black, they all funnel back to the major chairs up the hill. A good venue for groups with varied skiing ability. Cruise the 8 mile or 5 mile tracks to see the whole resort.
Ice skating is great fun and pick up games of ice hockey abound. Our kids got hooked!
Try cross country skiing, a huge range of tracks and gear is very cheap to hire.
If you are a family of 4 or more, consider a private limo service out of Kamloops. The cost is not that much more than the bus and allows you to pick up groceries at Safeway and travel in comfort.
The Supermarket and bottle shop in Sun Peaks are basic but cover most major purchases.
It gets cold there. Speaking to the locals, they are fascinated by how underdressed Aussies are. A few tips, Mittens not gloves. Buy disposable hand warmers and toe warmers. I scoffed but I used them. Blue Sky, no wind -25 deg.....

Therefore, brothers and sisters, you must be patient as you wait for the coming of the Lord.
Courageous patience
7 Therefore, brothers and sisters, you must be patient as you wait for the coming of the Lord. Consider the farmer who waits patiently for the coming of rain in the fall and spring, looking forward to the precious fruit of the earth. 8 You also must wait patiently, strengthening your resolve, because the coming of the Lord is near. 9 Don't complain about each other, brothers and sisters, so that you won't be judged. Look! The judge is standing at the door!
10 Brothers and sisters, take the prophets who spoke in the name of the Lord as an example of patient resolve and steadfastness.
The "Jesus Calling Devotional Bible" puts readers in touch with God and His answers for their life situations. Missionary Sarah Young had been journaling her prayers for years when she began "listening" for what Jesus was saying to her within the words of Scripture. In this Bible, 260 scenarios pose life struggles to which Sarah Young gives answers from her Savior-words that Jesus has lovingly laid on her heart-words that have comforted and inspired Sarah and many others around the world.

Investigators still have not pinpointed what started the blaze that ripped through a Tiffin mobile home Sunday, killing a father and five children. In the meantime, more outpouring support comes from the community, as visitation begins for the children who died.
Stormie, Trinitie and Sunshine's father, Rickie, says he wants his girls to rest in peace together.
"I'm happy they're being buried together because my kids loved each other. They never caused a problem with each other. They didn't argue. Nothing. They shared everything," said Huey.

The client
Peugeot and Initials Marketing
The challenge
"Let Your Body Drive"
The brief
Initials Marketing commissioned Rubber Republic to make a music video inspired by the all new Peugeot 208 as part of their "Let Your Body Drive" campaign.
What we did
We sought out YouTube sensation Marquese Scott (aka NONSTOP), famous for his jaw dropping dance moves and gravity defying routines. 'Feel The Love (ft. John Newman)' by Rudimental was tipped to be a summer anthem, so it was the perfect track for Marquese to leave his mark on.
The pay off
The film performed extremely well, hitting over a million views in a month, and even outdoing the official music video. The sentiment of comments and blog posts was 99% positive, with people awe-struck at Marquese's moves and muscle control. Marquese also brought with him a considerable fan base within the target market for the 208, putting the video in front of the right people.

Seriously...could the weather be anymore beautiful out...

Love the floral skirt on you, way to make the trend your own.
Very pretty!! That orange shirt really brings out the flowers in the skirt!

Pinch Me! |
That's so damn reassuring! To actually BELIEVE that. Like really, I don't question it. I cant tell you how much stress that took off my over-taxed brain. The stress of always trying to have the answer. Always have the solution or the plan, trying to predict the end result, all that crap. Gone.
I'm not saying I don't plan, come on now I'm a single mom of three! My life is pretty planned out. I'm also not saying I don't have goals and a clear vision of where I am going and where I want to be. In fact, I probably have that more obsessively mapped out then most. But I'm saying that I no longer STRESS about any of it. I don't, I swear! I have total and complete faith that it will all come in due time. I have no clue how, I just KNOW it will. I know the road will be unpredictable, so why stress continuously about it? Just let go, believe, and get on with enjoying your life!
Today was a great day. I took my son to school, totally stress free in essentially my jamies with some piping hot coffee in hand. No mad dash out the door. No half hour trying to find something to ware. Just easy convo with my 8 year old.
Then lots of kisses for my girls as they showed me their freshly completed art projects with beaming smiles. Lunch listening to their bubbling laughter and silly chatter about farts and princesses. Kisses for nap, hugs after. Conference calls and meetings, then a run with my son. Just him and I.
Now that's a day!! The kind I've been waiting for :)
But anyone who knows me would agree that.....I gotta put my heels on and go kick some ass in the city too! So that's why I feel so lucky! I'm off to Chicago, MN and NYC next week. London, LA, San Francisco, NYC, Houston and DC next month.
This is only possible because I have the worlds BEST nanny/GF/"wish I had a husband like that"/right hand. She's been part of our family since the girls can remember and supports me when I travel and backs me up when I'm here. Did I mention I feel really blessed?
Now....if only I could date a plastic surgeon for 3 or so months then shit would really be great! :) In time...all in due time.

Hi all,
might be a newbie question, but I am unable to select a favorite channel using my remote control
with TBS 6921 and TBS Viewer.
Example: When I click "2" I get channel 2 rather than the second favorite.
To switch to my first favorite, I am forced to enter "194" which happens to be the channel number.
Is there any trick I am missing? How can I persuade TBS Viewer to interpret remote control selctions as favorite numbers rather than as channels?
Thanks in advance!

Igor Quotes
- #1
Dr. Glickenstein: Now to take the old cow for a test drive!
Igor: No, Master! The rocket is going to...!
[the rocket explodes, scattering pieces of Glickenstein everywhere]
Igor: Uh, yeah, that.
Scamper: Finally! Now I can throw out that rug in the foyer, that thing is hideous.
[off their looks]
Scamper: We were all thinking it, I just said it. - #2
Igor: Only one thing left to do...
Brain: Ha-ha, he said "do."
Igor: [shouts] Pull the switch!
[Igor's "switch!" echoes several times. Nothing happens. He looks over at Scamper, standing by the switch]
Scamper: Do *not* yell at me.
Igor: Oh, I-I'm sorry. I just... pull the switch?
[No response]
Igor: Please pull the switch.
Scamper: That's better. - #3
Dr. Schadenfreude: [to Igor, about Eva] How do we get this evil bone up and running? Do we kick it? Slap it? Take it to the movies and call it Irene? - #4
Igor: Hi, I'm here about the "Igor Wanted" ad. My name's Igor. Well, of course it is. I have a hunch, what's my name gonna be? Kevin? - #5
Eva: As an actor, I feel VERY deeply about everything. And enjoy every minute of it. - #6
Brain: Is French Fries an idea? - #7
Eva: [Watching Igor chase Brain with an ax] Which play are they rehearsing?
Scamper: It's called "Brain Dead."
[Igor continues chasing Brain]
Scamper: It should be a smash. - #8
Igor: He tricked us into believing that we need to be evil to survive. But we don't! None of us do. - #9
Igor: I always wanted to be an evil scientist. Unfortunately the hunch on my back was a one-way ticket to Igor School. I majored in Talking With A Slur and graduated with a Yes Masters Degree. - #10
Igor: As somebody I loved once said: It's better to be a good nobody, than an evil somebody. - #11
Scamper: [Talking to a blind orphan] Hans, you're wearing this backwards! What are you, blin-? Uh... - #12
[following Eva's trail to an orphanage, they hear screams from inside]
Igor: Oh, God, she's killing blind orphans! That's so... evil! I mean, which is great! But... *blind orphans*? - #13
Brain: Wait, wait, wait, wait! Why does *he* get to pull the switch?
Scamper: Because I'm not an idiot, *Brian*.
Brain: My name is not Brian!
Scamper: Then you must have his jar.
Igor: Stop! You can both pull the switch. On the count of three. One...
[Scamper pulls the switch]
Brain: Hey, no fair! - #14
Igor: [looks at his beginning invention] I know, right? And she's not even done, yet! - #15
Igor: [voice over] But eventually I landed a job for Dr. Glickenstein.
Dr. Glickenstein: Pull the switch!
Igor: [voice over] Not the smartest scientist. His last invention was an Evil Lasagna. It didn't kill anyone, and it actually tasted pretty good. - #16
Igor: [voice over] That's Brain, one of my other inventions. Legend has it when the smartest man in the world died, they put his brain in a jar... this is not that brain. - #17
[first lines]
Igor: [voice over] Nice weather we're having, huh? Here in the Kingdom of Malaria, every day's forecast is rainy, with a 100% chance of horror! It wasn't always like this, though. Years ago, Malaria was a sunny land of farmers, until the mysterious storm clouds rolled in, and never left. They killed our crops, and our people became poor. And that's when King Malpert thought up a new way for us to make money: Evil Inventions! The kind that crush you, kill you, bring you back to life, then kill you again way worse! We invent them, and the world pays us not to unleash them. Oh, it's a great gig, especially if you're an evil scientist. Fame, fortune, a rent-free castle in the hills. They get it all! They're the top of the heap!
Dr. Holzwurm: Igor, pull the switch!
Dr. Holzwurm's Igor: Yes, Master.
Igor: [voice over] And the bottom of the heap? Those are the poor schlobs like me, born with a hunch on our back - Igors. - #18
Igor: [voice over] That's Scamper, one of my most successful inventions.
[Scamper drops a giant weight on himself, flattening himself]

Much ahead of scheduled 6th March release, gamers got a glimpse of Mass Effect 3 'beta'; thanks to a Microsoft faux pas. Before Microsoft managed to cover up the leak, a lot of our fellow gamers got a good shot at the 'beta.'
Mass Effect 3: Costly leak to give us insights
It all started last Friday, when Xbox live started to offer Mass Effect 3 beta to the gamers—offering a never seen before insight into both single and multiplayer variants of the game. The most surprising was for a company like Bioware, this type of leak; that too with so many days left to have the final version of the game ready—was not only unprecedented but quite unexpected.
Well, Bioware did acknowledge the leak later terming it as an accidental leak by an Microsoft staff while checking out the offerings to users who have already signed up to their latest Xbox Live dashboard update.
Mass Effect 3: Bioware doing everything to negate the leak
Jesse Houston, producer Bioware expressed his grief about the leak, emphasizing on the fact that with much early in the fine-tuning of the game, the leaked version was just a crude version and promises to deliver a much improved and sophisticated version of the galactic warfare in coming March. He also expressed his desire to offer a much improved gaming experience both storyline wise always the combat element.
Mass Effect 3 leak: Microsoft not 'much bothered'
Microsoft was prompt on their part; they made all the related threads on Mass effect 3 on Xbox Live to be deleted at the earliest.
Microsoft issued a cease and desist order on the NeoGAF thread that actually led to the leak, which eventually led to EviLore, the board owner withdrawing the thread. Now, it remains to be seen how long Microsoft take this cease-and-desist forward, whether the take up action against the 'individual' whose action lead to the leak or whether they carry on with an intellectual property right violation over the issue.
Bioware is looking to release the beta officially in next January, months ahead of the full and final release.

Ben Swanson, 16, was nervous, doubted himself even, in the nights prior to the 2012 National Rifle Association National Rifle and Pistol Championships.
But there he was, Camp Perry, an Ohio National Guard training facility on the shores of Lake Erie, and as he looked down the firing line at the competitors readying themselves for the 3-Position Any Sight Championship, those nerves and doubts somehow seemed to melt away.
As the old saying goes, our worst fears lie in anticipation.
Article Photos
Ben Swanson, center, was honored with an open house at the Jamestown Rifle Club on Sunday after he return from the 2012 National Rifle Association National Rifle and Pistol Championships with eight national titles. He is flanked by his parents, Faith and Mark, and at far left is coach Jen Canfield and at far right is coach Jim Schmitt. Below, Swanson is seen in front of a list of all his accomplishments.
P-J photos by Rob Tucker
No matter that to his left and right were some supremely talented shooters - Olympians and members of the Army Marksmanship Unit (AMU) were competing, for instance, so was the head coach of West Point Military Academy's shooting team.
No matter that the rain was falling and the wind was blowing - steady at 20 miles per hour with gusts near 30, his coach, Jim Schmitt, recalled.
"We got to the (firing) line and the big wind flags were straight out," Schmitt marveled. "We figured that maybe by the time he got to shoot it would be decent, but it never let up. I just thought, 'boy this is not going to be a good day for anybody.'"
Swanson, however, was ready.
So with a tune in his head (to help take his mind off the pressure) and his father, Mark, manning the scope at his side, Swanson, battling the wind and the rain, began.
When he was finished, he had accomplished a feat that just days before he had thought impossible - he won.
Besting some 600 competitors - he topped the West Point head coach by three places - Swanson was crowned the Any Sight National Champion.
"It was a really tough day and he humbled a lot of people," Swanson's other coach, Jen Canfield, said. "Normally when you get days like that the military shooters (guys from Army Marksmanship Unit) do well because that's their job. But out of nowhere there comes this 16-year-old boy and he just dominated everyone."
That victory, however, was just one of many that the soon-to-be Jamestown High School senior captured during his 10-day stay.
When Swanson returned home on Saturday, a moment his mother, Faith, could hardly wait for, he brought with him numerous plaques, medals and accolades.
See SWANSON, Page B2
From Page B1
In addition to being named the 3-Position Any Sight Champion, he was - just to name a few - the National 3-Position Expert Champion and the National 3-Position Intermediate Champion. He was first overall in the Intermediate Junior Prone Iron Sight Championship and the Prone Any Sight Championship. He was the winner of the Sharpshooter Overall - and Intermediate - Prone Rifle Championship and also earned a place on the 2012 United States Dewar Team, a squad that can only be made by being a top-20 shooter at the event.
"To win a match at Camp Perry over everyone else is a really big deal," Canfield said. "Very few people can say that they've won a match at Camp Perry, especially as a junior. It's usually something that the older guys always look at doing. To be a kid makes it all the more special."
While the 3-Position Any Sight title may have just been one victory of a handful, it was, Swanson noted, the sweetest.
"That's the one I'm most proud of," he said. "There was 20-mile-per-hour winds and I mean, my goal was just to stay inside the targets. I just kept pushing through it and somehow I ended up at the top.
"Jen was almost in tears when I told her."
Not bad for a boys that has been shooting competitively for just five years.
"He's a natural shooter," Schmitt said. "He excels at it and he'll challenge himself. To do what he did was amazing because he's going up against Olympians and guys that have been doing it a lot longer than he has. It's an amazing thing to be doing at 16."
So amazing, in fact, that the AMU invited him, upon graduation, to go down to Fort Benning, Ga., and train with them for the 2016 Olympics.
For now, though, Swanson is looking forward to exploring the many options - including talks with West Point and the University of Akron about joining the shooting team - that have arisen from this breakout performance.
"(The Olympics) is definitely something I'm interested in," he said, "but there have been a lot of different pathways that have opened up now."
Either way, Canfield expects to see her pupil on the podium in the years to come.
"I knew there would come a day when he would be up on stage," she said. "It was just a matter of time. He's got the talent to succeed."

We need a driver to take 2 persons from Orly Airport to Epernay on October 18. What is the price?
We(Myself and 14yo son) are trying to live Paris just for the day and visit Epernay or Reims. We always take tours(Viator), but I don't want just taste Champagne...we want to see a beautiful town, eat lunch and walk around. I read about those two towns and many people like Epernay over Reims. We will take a train from Paris, so we need to be in a town that we can walk around without a car. I am also wondering how many hours would be necessary to walk around each city.
One more thing...it will be in December...some places are not to charming in December..is it even worth it? Please let me know. Thanks
Can anyone tell me when the 20 km run through Epernay will be in 2013. How does one register for the event?
Visiting Epernay in September, is it easy to go visiting the different cellars on foot or do I need to rent a car/taxi to get around?
My friend and I are travelling to Epernay from Paris on Friday June 26th in the morning and have appointments at two wineries (Champagne Jacquesson in Dizy and Champagne Barnaut in Bouzy) at 10:00 and 15:00; we were going to have lunch at Bistro 7 in between and explore a little. However, I can't find a car to rent from the Epernay train station for the day. Does anyone know of a car service that would drive us for the day? Or should we rent a car in Paris and just drive the entire way? I'm nervous about driving in Paris... Thanks so much!
How long will it take to get from Ave de Champagne in Epernay to Chateau les Crayeres in Reims on a Monday at about 12:30pm by taxi and what would an "approxiamte" fare be??
Hi all,
I know I've read there is a train from Paris to Epernay and I've even seen the rail map showing this but every time I search for one I get no results. Is there really a train that one can take from Paris to Epernay? And if anyone knows does a Eurail pass cover this?
Thanks for any and all help!
Does anyone know of a couple of champagne houses to visit that are open late afternoon Friday or on Saturdays in July?
I'll be in Epernay in 3 weeks (between Nov 23 - 30). What kind of weather should I expect? Thanks

The Style Council
The Style Council
Guitarist/vocalist Paul Weller broke up the Jam, the most popular British band of the early '80s, at the height of their success in 1982 because he was dissatisfied with their musical direction. Weller wanted to incorporate more elements of soul, R&B, and jazz into his songwriting, which is something he felt his punk-oriented bandmates were incapable of performing. In order to pursue this musical direction, he teamed up in 1983 with keyboardist Mick Talbot, a former member of the mod revival band the Merton Parkas. Together, Weller and Talbot became the Style Council -- other musicians were added according to what kind of music the duo were performing. With the Style Council, the underlying intellectual pretensions that ran throughout Weller's music came to the forefront.

Calling all Europeans or visitors! The premier pan-European gathering for blue grass music is coming again to the small town of Voorthuizen in the Netherlands, less than an hour east of Amsterdam, this Thursday-Friday-Saturday 01-03 May. Some USA bands will play (Sally Jones, Dick Staber, Carrie Hassler) but the focus is on excellent European bands, a trade show, and of course plenty of jamming.
If you haven't heard the Czech, Slovak, Bulgarian, Norwegian, Swedish, French, Belgian, Dutch, German or Hungarian bluegrass with local folk elements, you have missed some excellent and provocative music.
There are also beginner and advanced mandolin workshops with Kevin Lynch. Jiri Lebeda and Jaroslav Prucha will be exhibiting (and selling) in the trade show, and there are several dealers with good mandolin stock also.
See all the details at The EWOB web site.

Roxy's Top 20: 15-11
15. Pour Habit
These boys are straight outta Compton! (Sorry, had to.) They started as a trio in 2005 and grew into the Fat Wreck band we've come to know. Pour Habit has played The Roxy's too many times to count and each time they remind us how fun it is to up the punx.
14. John West
Ok, this man needs no introduction from us, you know him, he had the best year ever. His soulful sounds bring smiles to our faces and that's why we had to put him on our Top 20. Listen and love John West.

John West | Myspace Music Videos
@weareATS! This pop punk band knows how to rock it. They are a party with amps and are such a pleasure to have around. It seems like we get them on our stage so often and it's still just as good as the last.
12. Ke$ha
Ok, so she only played here once but it totally rocked our socks off so hard that we couldn't leave her off the list. If you didn't hear about Ke$ha this year, you were probably living under a rock. Listen to the song
11. Hyper Crush
Ohh, Hyper Crush, how we love you. We had quite a few shows with them this year and all were very memorable including our big collab with House of Blues & Live Nation where we put on a free show with these guys just for you. These guys know how to have fun and we couldn't be happier to put them on our list.
Keep an eye out, we're going to start the voting for the Top 5 next week!

Monday, August 31, 2009
First and foremost I would like to apologize for any grammatical errors in these blog posts, I write them pretty quickly and on top of that I haven't been speaking very much English lately.
Friday after la comida we took a siesta and then drove to Peñiscola, 3 hours north of Murcia. Peñiscola is a small town in Valencia on the border of Catalonia, fairly close to Barcelona. It was built in the 13th century by the Knights Templar(I guess that Crusades class finally paid off) and was also the home of Pope Benedict XIII. The famous movie El Cid, which I also watched in my Crusades class, was also filmed in the fortress of Peñiscola. When we got there Pascual and Jesus (Roberto's Uncles more or less) were watching a football (soccer) game on television out on the terrace. The terrace had a great view of the entire pueblo, the old fortress, and the sea! Jesus told us that if Barcelona didn't win the game then we would not be getting any dinner that night. He was joking of course but that is how seriously soccer is taken around here. For dinner we had some type of fish, I can't remember the name, the only thing I remember is that it still had it's head intact. It's eyes were staring back at me and it's mouth was wide open while I tried to pick the meat off of it's bones...I was doing a pretty good job until I accidently jabbed something with my knife that caused blood to spill out across the fish's body and that is when I gave up and just ate my vegetables. In the morning we took a tour of the old fortress and then walked around the old part of the town. We stopped to have an horchata, a sweet milky drink very typical of Valencia, and then walked around the park before lunch.
Roberto's family in Peñiscola has a very strong Valencian accent and they typically speak Valencian at home. Valencian is similar to Spanish and French and in the schools in Valencia they teach half the time in Valencian and the other half in Castellano (Spanish).
For lunch we went back to his family's house and we had more seafood. I enjoy almost all kinds of foods and I am normally very willing to try new things; I am only wary when it comes to eating creatures that look as though the could still be alive. I like fish, shrimp, lobster, crab, mussels, oysters etc...I just don't enjoy removing their heads, bodies, and tentacles! I ate almost everything put in front of me this weekend EVEN the live oysters, their tentacles were still moving in their shells. I didn't like it, it was probably more psychological than anything, but at least I tried. The best thing we had was the arroz caldoso marinero! It was served in a giant pan at a restaurant with lobster and rice.
We spent very little time at the beach due to the cloudy weather but the beach was beautiful. We also went to a couple little bars on Saturday night, one was up high on a terrace overlooking the beach and the other was hidden down by the rocks. You were so close to the water and you could watch the water crash against the rocks at your table; it was very peaceful!
All in all we had a wonderful time! His family that we stayed with was amazing and super kind and welcoming. I only met one member of his family that drove me crazy. He was constantly talking about the United States and about how Spanish food is better, the Spanish lifestyle is better, the Spanish language is richer etc. I think Roberto could tell I was getting mad at the dinner table when his Uncle was prattling on about how superior Spain is to the United States. When someone talks that way about your country it is very offensive. He spent 9 days in New York and felt that he had the right to say that American meat doesn't have as good of a texture and Spanish meat and that our wine is terrible. I admit that the U.S. has it's MANY faults, but so so does Spain, and every other country in the world for that matter. He had no idea what he was talking about but I couldn't be rude and make a scene in front of Roberto's family so I simply bit my tongue and decided that his ignorance wasn't worth it. Now I am going to go get a cup of coffee and work on wrapping some of the bottles of olive oil that Gema (Roberto's sister) is going to pass out as wedding favors.

My Arrival
I arrived in Madrid the 22nd and everything has been going smoothly since then. Roberto picked me up at the airport and we went to take la siesta and then ate lunch in Madrid. The streets of Madrid are completely empty during the day in the summer because of the heat. It is surprising to see such a big city with so little people. At night things change; people are singing on the corner and everyone finally leaves the house because the weather is semi-bearable. I imagine that is why the siesta exists, because the days are too hot and the only thing you can do with a smile is sleep. People generally stay awake a lot later, midnight is early and 2 am is getting to bed at a decent hour.
I have been at Roberto's house this whole week and I feel like all I have been doing is eating! I have helped his Mom in the kitchen a bit, but I feel like I do everything differently and she is constantly telling me, " Ay noo! Así Así!" For example, I see the green part of the lettuce as the best part while always she insists that I throw it away and we only eat the iceberg lettuce.
-Stuffed Chicken (stuffed with cheese, cured ham, and regular ham)
- Potaje (chard, garbanzo beans, pumpkin, potato, onion, garlic, and tomato stew)
-Salad (always with raw tuna mixed in)
-Macarrones/Pasta (Typical spaghetti type dish but you can't forget the raw tuna mixed in again)
-Tortilla/Omelet (We have had this with potatoes and onions and then also with garlic buds and mushrooms)
-Ensaladilla rusa (simply tuna salad with potatoes)
His Mom also makes great milk (similar to horchata) flavored with cinnamon, lemon, and a bit of sugar!
Roberto has to work during the day so I am on my own with his family. His brother is a firefighter in Murcia and his sister works at a jewelry store and lately has been entirely concentrated on planning her wedding, which is September 26th. For the wedding they are going to have a capea, or an amateur bullfight, very cliché and also a tad on the dangerous side. When they described it to me they told me that people drink all day and then go into the bull fighting ring to fight with a baby bull (the baby still weighs 200 or more pounds and I refuse to participate, although I will be on the sidelines with my camera).
Every morning I wake up around 7 with Roberto and eat breakfast. We have what his friends describe as a good Mediterranean breakfast, toast with grated tomatoes and olive oil. Roberto also makes me freshly squeezed orange juice! I then go back to bed and sleep until 9. When I wake up I help his Mom in the kitchen and bit and then I go with Roberto's Dad to drop her off at work. His Mom sells "Thermomix machines", a cooking machine that seems to be pretty popular throughout Europe. She is a wonderful cook and knows how to make EVERYTHING!
Today I am going to the mall with Roberto's cousin who is visiting from Peñiscola, Juani. Tonight Roberto and I are going to Peñiscola to stay with his family there. I hear it is beautiful and I can't wait to go to the beach! I miss my own family a lot! Sorry it took me so long to write this first blog, I have been busy practicing the siesta (I just want to fit in!) I'll write again soon!

One of the most common human errors committed by almost everyone is the negligence of reading the user's manual on the purchase of new product. If one does read it—the reading may not have gone beyond the first two pages. By doing so, we generally miss out on many important tips and instructions on the product, in our case here, the laptop battery—the correct usage guides. Unlike the past years, current laptop batteries are made of lithium ions (Li-Ion) which are more competent than their predecessors.
Today, online sources are flooded with technical and simple guides on laptop battery use and its run-life. In conformity with expert industry guidelines, some recommendations have shown great results for laptop users. One such tip goes like this—laptop battery is best put to use after 3 cycles of 'complete charge and discharge cycle.' Carrying out this step diligently ensures that the cells inside the laptop battery are activated and ready to perform optimum charge-discharge cycle. If you have not been using the battery for over a period of 3 months than the method of '3 cycles of complete charge and discharge cycle' is all the more important to enhance your laptop battery life, before restarting its use.
In addition, laptop with nickel-metal hydride (NiMH) based battery may have a different story altogether to tell. Overcharging is known to cut down the life of the NiMH laptop batteries, so these batteries are not to be put under extensive charging. Similar to Lithium-ion laptop battery, NiMHO laptop battery also requires the same charging method—charge and discharge 3 times before using it. Regardless of whether you own a Dell Laptop Battery or an IBM Laptop Battery, it is very important to monitor the temperature of your laptop because an over heated laptop could indicate the degrading health of your laptop battery.

Dungeons & Dragons: Tactics Review
Can the portable score a critical hit?
The grandfather of all RPGs has to be Dungeons and Dragons. The pen and paper game has been going strong for more than thirty years, and has evolved from the earlier pre-packaged modules to massive campaigns that spanned vast worlds. For the most part, players looking to unleash their inner barbarian had to jump onto computers if they wanted to digitally form parties and gain experience points. However, Kuju Entertainment and Atari have boiled down the tabletop experience onto UMD with their latest release of Dungeons & Dragons: Tactics. While it does a faithful job of shrinking down the arcane details of the game to portable size, much of the translation suffers from a cluttered menu system along with crucially missing information that most veterans would require.
The one complaint that most newcomers to the Dungeons and Dragons universe often levy against the game is based around the high level of detail and complexity with its rules. Off-hand proficiencies, encumbrance limits and armor class rankings frequently merge with saving throw die rolls and attack modifiers in a blur of statistics and numbers. What's more, most of these details are spread across multiple rulebooks, which can sometimes make finding the specific info you're looking for a massive process. Although it focuses upon the most recent and intricate ruleset for the game (the 3.5 rules that were created a few years ago), D&D: Tactics does an incredible job of boiling down a large amount of information down onto one UMD. In fact, Kuju provides a glossary that covers most of the random details and obscure facts that you might not necessarily know anything about.
However, while it fits a ton of elements into the game, it either leaves out key information or standard features of the D&D canon, which can be extremely important as you're navigating your way through dungeons or battlefields. For instance, one of the most important features when it comes to D&D is having the die rolls available for you to gauge how well your characters are doing in battle. This covers everything from successful attacks to making your saving throws, as well as any potential modifiers that your characters might have that would apply to the roll itself. However, with this feature removed, you find yourself somewhat in the dark as to why your characters fail at spellcasting or flanked attacks, even if they should be able to successfully land a blow without a problem.
Even information that you have access to has to be waded through via an extremely convoluted menu system that forces you to often navigate more than three screens before you find the details you need. For instance, you can pick up an item on the battlefield, but you have no immediate idea what its weight is so that you can check its effect on your character's encumbrance stats. As a result, you either take the item, hoping that the extra weight doesn't slow your character to a crawl, or you try to examine the item stats by scrolling through multiple menu options on a menu wheel. This often involves scrolling down each menu window to check out your backpack via party management to see what you may want to keep or get rid off. After you've fought with this system a few times during battle (as you try to use the multiple options during a fight) or you've wrestled with the menu system during exploration, you'll quickly find yourself wishing there was another way to control your party members.
Speaking of your party members, there are some interesting quirks with the character creation setup. Players can either use pre-created warriors or create their own, manually adjusting their stats or leaving things up to the game's AI. You'll need to select a main character, who will essentially be the hero or villain of the plot as they lead their friends around the lands of the Vinsaxi trbe. Since the game takes your main character's alignment heavily into consideration, players will need to be careful of the decisions that they make along the course of the adventure because it will actually affect the course of the game as well as their personal development. That means that paladins can fall from grace and become simple fighters, or true neutral characters can make a shift towards either good or evil.
However, there are some hiccups with the character development system as well. First of all, there's no multi-classing available within the game, which is a D&D standard. Kiss those Fighter/Mage or three class combos goodbye, which is rather disappointing. In their place, D&D Tactics included two new character classes to the video game realm: Psions and Psychic Warriors. While the ability to use mental powers are somewhat intriguing, their usefulness on the Tactics battlefield is frequently more miss than hit, particularly at earlier levels. I found that many of the other classes were more useful than these warriors, whether that was because of their varying power levels for their mental attacks or unpredictable strikes. One of the psion characters I created, for instance, didn't consistently land psychic attacks until she was at least 5th level, and even that was frequently a toss up.

I was in the market for a pre-owned Jeep vehicle and came to Rothrock because of their large inventory. I found a clean, one-owner, reliable vehicle that fit my needs at a price that I could not turn down. However, I was concerned about the value of my trade-in, which was a major deciding factor in continuing with my purchase. No worries though! Rothrock gave me more than I thought I would get for my trade-in while holding true to their quote for my pre-owned vehicle, no catches or hidden tricks here! My sales consultant was incredibly knowledgeable and helpful throughout the purchase process, allowing me to be out of my old vehicle and into my new one with ample time to spare! I could not be happier with my purchase or my decision to take my business to Rothrock, it was an overall great experience. I would recommend Rothrock to all my family and friends who are in the market for a pre-owned or new vehicle!

For me, no one thing or line has really been on the chopping block, so to speak.
I just pick and choose what's coolest to me, not really being completist for any line.
If money were no issue, I'd be completist in everything, from Hot Toys and 3A to DCUC and MU.
But for the most part, I'm satisfied to own a few choice pieces and enjoy looking at everyone else's.

Home Depot will create the largest network of compact fluorescent light bulb recycling centers at its 1,973 U.S. stores, the New York Times reports today.
Although CFLs have many environmental benefits, they do contain a small amount of mercury, and so need to be disposed of properly.
CFLs contain up to 5 milligrams of mercury, which is quite a small amount; compare that to older home thermostats and mercury fever thermometers, which contain from 500 to 3,000 milligrams. But given that nearly 300 million CFLs were sold in the U.S. in 2007, according to the Wall Street Journal, it can still be a concern.
Besides Home Depot, other options for recycling and safe disposal include Ikea and True Value stores, community hazardous waste collection sites (find one near you) and Sylvania's RECYCLEPAK program.
Home Depot's program will make it easier for more people to recycle, since there's a Home Depot within 10 miles of 75% of the American population, according to a Home Depot official quoted in the Times.
Disposing of used CFLs might seem like a bit of a pain, especially if you have to pay, but note that the recycling cost amounts to just about 1% of the total amount of money you'll spend on a bulb in its lifetime, since energy use is the lion's share. Also note that if you do have a broken bulb, don't handle it with bare hands. Pick up the fragments with a paper towel, seal in a plastic bag, and take to a recycling center. Ventilate the room thoroughly to push out any mercury vapor. (Click here for the EPA's safe-cleanup tips.)

Hey guys - this week's topic actually comes from my girlfriend! It's a bit daunting at first, but I think you can really make it work. "The birth of plague" - well, first of all, identify just what your "plague" is. It could be literal, in which case I expect lots of ugly Nurgle-tastic entries! But equally, it could be a metaphor. After all, sometimes Inquisitors talking about Orks might talk about the "Green-skinned plague", which lets you tackle all sorts of things from Tyranids to Skaven! This week could feature anything from a sorceror in his lair conjuring up curses to strike down Bretonnia all the way to an infested Nurgle tank spewing toxins over the foe.
It might seem tricky, but I'm super confident that you guys can come up with fantastic entries. In other news, half way through our 52 weeks, the top 10 standings for WSG Season 2 are as follows: #1 (Joint): Schwager (53 Points) #1 (Joint): Striogi (53 Points) #3: Tiuku (50 Points) #4: Easy E (33 Points) #5: Calamity (30 Points) #6: Dazz1286 (25 Points) #7 (Joint): BigFooT (24 Points) #7 (Joint): Kombat-Unit (24 Points) #7 (Joint): Tau's'ar'aww (24 Points) #10: Precinctomega (19 Points) Thank you to everyone who participates! |

Ok, it's not exactly what is stated at this WSG tittle, but I hope it's pretty close to it:
It is suppossed to be one handed hammer for some plague marine. The skull of plaguebringer attached on it gives it power to unleash some ammount of the disease or plague. The VII is the roman 7, Nurgle's sacred number. |

Barely made it. This is not a good work though, but I'll like to share the idea with you guys. It may seem out of topic unless you read the necron codex which shows the necrons saying that chaos are the enslavers plague. I hope work doesn't kill my life so I can spend more time with my tablet. anyway, comments, Birdie: I can somehow feel your art, very concept art like and atmospheric. Bigfoot: Hehe, nice hammer there, the only thing's missing is the bearer himself! Striogi: Nomnomnom I say, and you made it kinda creepy to be with those cute critters. Well, not so cute anymore. Schwager: Very nice classic picture. I love the plaguefather himself, and what I really find the best in the picture is the legion under the father nurgle. It's been a long week for me at work, but for leisure I've got none, so please forgive my work if it isn't up to scratch as always. |

This topic was rather more lonely last night.
Anyway, I got an idea to do an Officio Medicae poster. I figured I'd run with it, and break out something a little different technique-wise. http://ragnarokeotw.deviantart.com/art/Ord...No-27-129215340 As always, it's not perfect, but I kinda like the way it's turned out, because the colour's got that muted look of WWII propaganda, which is pretty appropriate for what it is. |

I do have to admit that last night I was despairing a little! Thankfully you guys have saved the topic with some absolutely great entries. Though the topic's been a little quiet, fantastic art like this just underscores why Illuminatus is a great site.
Birdie - I think your work is really atmospheric and very cool - I especially like the texture and the tones in "she who thirsts". Really nice. It makes me think (in relation to the topic title) that forbidden texts and the like might be the seed that spreads the "plague" of corruption and chaos worship. BiGFooT: A really clever way of interpreting the topic title. After all, the Plague Hammer is a tool that a Plague Marine might utilise to bring plague to his enemies. I think that's really clever, and I like the use of the sacred number. I think the item could have perhaps done with more nurgle iconography, though. Striogi: Nurgle-infested Tyranids?! Now that's not a pretty thought at all! I like the rippers, you made them look cute and deadly at the same time. It's also a clever play on the title because the Rippers are responsible for consuming bio-matter so that more Tyranids may be consumed. In a way, they are responsible for "birthing" the "plague" that the Tyranids are! Schwager: Every week you produce a piece that makes me think "this is my favourite piece of yours so far!". I really like the details, and I imagine after I finish this post I'll go back to look for more! Kudos for producing a fantasy-related image, too. Russ: I like your style - the sad-looking C'Tan makes me laugh a great deal! Nice to see someone tackling Necrons in the WSG, though, we haven't really seen them in here for a while. MarcoSkoll: I like that you produced a piece which is relevant both then and now - especially with the fuss around Swine Flu at the moment. Col: Nice to see you around again - good luck with your endeavours! It might be five minutes' work, but I like how you've laid the groundwork for the Great Unclean One, and made him seem incredibly malevolent and menacing - suggesting a lot whilst showing us a little. Thank you to all of you for your efforts - you really made my day! I'll go update your points right now. WSG28 is due in about an hour and ten. |

There was a certain amount of inspiration from the swine flu leaflets. Although obviously, the NHS isn't in the habit of threatening you if you don't - appropriate for the Imperium though. I admit it's not exactly the birth of plague, but I felt it was close enough to have something about the control of disease.
Well, look at this! Appears we got here just in the nick of time. What does that make us? |
