"Mohalu – to be at ease, comfortable, at liberty. As our lives contain many layers, the same is for Mohalu. Mohalu is also the 12th night of the lunar cycle, an eve where planting flowers would be ideal, as these blooms would grow as full and as perfect as the moon on this night. The mana'o (idea or thought) behind Mohalu represent what this sophomore project is for me.
This song selection unfolds to reveal different petals, if you will, of my life. My own mele (songs) are attempts to communicate my inner most feelings in hopes that there are others who can identify with my struggles and my joys."

Learn MoreEnglish Rose
English Rose conjures up the image of a fresh, voluptuous flower blossoming out from old rootstock. It's an apt reflection, as each song unfolds like its own petal of a larger bloom. Most are new originals, but with the familiar depth of an older lyrical and musical foundation. There are traditional favorites spiced with lively twists, and English songs, both light and loving. Each piece, each petal makes the collection bloom bigger and brighter. Learn More

This summer I am volunteering at Women In Need. It is a wonderful New York City based organization that is committed to helping homeless women and children. The women and children they help are faced with hardships such as poverty, domestic violence, lack of affordable housing, substance abuse, limited education and job skills, and family instability.
Quick Facts:
9,000 Individuals served each year
6,000 homeless children
2,500 people in a WIN shelter
each night
596 family units in 6 shelters
226 supportive housing units
8 childcare sites
Licensed, outpatient substance abuse treatment clinic
Over 1,000 homeless children served at Camp WIN
WIN is one of the largest providers of both shelter and supportive housing to homeless families throughout New York City each night. Thousands of women and their children sleep in WIN's transitional shelters and supportive housing units each night. There are six shelters across New York City that provide a safe, clean, independent place for a family to be together while they work to repair their lives. In addition, WIN supplies all families with essential items that many enter the shelters without. WIN focuses on providing a dignified place for mothers to get back on their feet, so the shelter provides classes and programs for the mothers and children, and the support they need to find a job and a place to live.
Visit http://women-in-need.org for more information on WIN and the work they do!

Hey kiddos!
Just wanted to keep you updated and post a picture of one of three paintings doodle Daniel and I did last night.
Well Bonjour,
Today we are talking about artwork. Artwork is a very strange thing when decorating your home. One, because people like to pick art that's a mass production MESS, and two because it's so easy to have GOOD artwork on your walls with very little effort. Just use things that you ALREADY posses. DAS RIGHT LADIES, LISTEN UP. I am going to share a perfect example of working with what you got.
The area above our coffe/bar station in our kitchen was looking pretty plain jane. We needed to fill the wall up with happiness and something appropriate for the space. Lord knows im on a STRICT budget so I needed something CHEAP, but pretty, and hopefully kinda special. I remembered Daniel had an old 1960′s Betty Crocker cook book, with AMAZING illustrations in it, just sitting around for a long time. We always liked to take it out to look and laugh at the great pictures and recipes inside. Some of the titles are PRETTY AMAZING and super outdated. It got me thinking about how much we enjoyed the cook book but it was always stowed away in a cupboard. Daniel and I decided to choose 12 of our favourite pictures and frame them with simple, white frames from the dollar store. We hung them in 3 rows of 4 and I think it looks absolutely amazing. The cost was under $15.00 and now we can appreciate them everyday when we make our morning lattes! Check it out!
It's yo boy Bri, coming at you LIVE from Montreal Canada. Todays blog post is to show you THE POWER OF MOTHA FUCKIN PAINT BICTHES! I am SUCH a HUGE believer in slapping a coat of fresh paint on ANYTHING to spruce it up or give er' a new look. Before (as you can see) our floors were pretty nasty, but after the wave of a highly toxic floor paint wand they are given new life. I also found the cutest rugs at Urban Outfitters the other day and will show you them, liiike maybe tomorrow…maybe. Anywhoodle enough with the chit chat, here is the before and after!
I LOVE Pinterest; you should probably follow me. I spend hours upon hours pinning, pinning, PINNING! But here's the thing, I appreciate the pins yet never actually use them as inspiration in the practical sense. So, I'm making changes and started small by duplicating this beauteous holiday chalk drawing.
Love you doodles and poodles,
I did a revolutionary DIY yesterday. It involved spray painting end tables we found in the garbage WHITE. WOAH. For the record I HATE spray painting. I feel like I have a CLAW for a hand when im done. That summer scooping ice-cream for rude Americans wearing socks and buckle sandals really fucked me over. Carpal tunnel for the win.
Hey you noodles,
I bought three new friends today. Meet Bryanna, Ethel, and Sophia. They are my new beautiful Dahlias friends I got at my favourite little flower shop on Queen East called Quince Flowers!So far they have been great listeners, and really put a smile on my face every morning. Have the best day guys!
I finally finished this BITCH. It took so long for me to get motivated and just buckle down and stick 250 more holes in my wall. Anywhoodle, here she is! SHES A BEAUT CLARKE! I pulled a 14 year old girl move and boosted the colour on this photo. Deal with it. Next on my SLOW moving bedroom project is painting some night tables WHITE. Then I think it is time Daniel and I got a REAL bed. Yes folks, we are still sleeping on a mattress on the floor. I got my eye on a real show stopper at IKEA. I am just waiting for it to come into stock. I can't wait to not have to crawl up off the floor in the morning LOL.
Later days fart weasels,
I swear I find most of the stuff thats in our home in the trash. Is that gross? IS IT? Regardless if it is gross to you or not, ITS HOW I ROLL. These two coffee tables were found and brought back to be fixed up! What do you all think? Which one should I fix up and keep?
I am QUITE certain that Daniel and our roommate Kennedy are sick of me bringing shit home. Deal with it guys, I'm a dumpster diver. Let me know in the comments if you guys have any ideas for what I could do to them. To be honest my first instinct is to paint them a fresh cloud white, but maybe thats too boring. Let me know, down below. BAM
Kids, it has been WAY TO LONG! I mean it! I seriously fell of the band wagon. Maybe I will chase that wagon and jump back on again. To be honest I don't even know if I will. I am so bad at keeping up with these things when I don't have extra time. I should make some extra time though. I guess we will see!
Lately Daniel and I have been finding so much good shit in the garbage in our building. Check out this white IKEA bookshelf we found. I decided to get some pretty fabric and staple gun it to the back. How pretty is this!? RUL PRETTY if you ask me.

A free lunch was provided for everyone, and children were able to make tons of crafts, play games and show off their cookie-decorating skills.

GUILDFORD, UK. – July 1, 2008 – Electronic Arts Inc. (NASDAQ: ERTS) today revealed it has created platform specific experiences for its popular FIFA 09 football franchise from EA SPORTS™. FIFA 09 has been designed and customized to deliver a unique gameplay experience that takes advantage of the hardware specifications of each available platform— the PLAYSTATION®3 computer entertainment system, Xbox 360™ video game and entertainment system, Wii™ home video game system, PC, PlayStation®2 computer entertainment system, Nintendo DS™, PSP® (PlayStation®Portable) system and mobile—when it is released worldwide this autumn.
"We have listened and responded to gamers and football fans around the world by building customized gameplay experiences for FIFA 09 on each platform," said Andrew Wilson, Vice President & Executive Producer for the franchise. "Everyone wants to play a football game that is customized to their system and delivers a unique and enjoyable experience. We understand that and have innovated features, created new modes and designed controls that are tailored to each specific platform."
With over 250 additions and enhancements to core gameplay, FIFA 09 on the PLAYSTATION 3 system and Xbox 360 deliver an authentic football simulation that enables you to customize the game to suit your style and ability. New animation technology creates more responsive first-time shooting and passing, faster and more controlled dribbling, and improved trapping. New player momentum physics, which exploits the power of these platform engines, delivers realistic player collisions, authentic jostling for the ball, and more variation in tackling.
"We listened to our consumers to make the changes that they wanted," said David Rutter, Producer of FIFA 09 on the PLAYSTATION 3 system and Xbox 360. "No other game has over 250 feature changes and additions focused on improving core gameplay. We have an absolutely authentic recreation of the real sport through attention to detail."
For the first time, go inside the game engine to customize the strategy and positioning of your teammates to decide exactly how your team will play in any situation. With new Custom Team Tactics you have all the tools to become a first-team coach. Adjust and customize tactical settings so CPU players and your team perform just like the real-world team plays and make strategic decisions to exploit your opponent's weaknesses, all on-the-fly. The popular feature innovation Be A Pro has expanded to a career mode called Be A Pro: Seasons where you can choose or create a professional player and then develop his skills at a single outfield position over four years with the ultimate goal of becoming a national legend. The matchday experience is now true-to-life with a referee and linesmen on the pitch. Plus, crowds, stadium atmosphere and commentary have all been regionalized in exact detail.
On the Wii, enjoy FIFA 09 All-Play one of two ways—a Wii-specific take on the authentic '11 vs. 11' simulation or over-the-top '8 vs. 8' arcade action within a stylized environment with Mii™ versions of your favorite superstars, like Ronaldinho and Wayne Rooney. Refined motion and point-and-play controls make playing FIFA 09 All-Play even more intuitive and perfectly balanced for gamers of any ability to enjoy fun, football action. Choose to play the style that best suits your skills from advanced controls for experienced players to new EA SPORTS™ All-Play controls that enables novice players to focus on fun using simplified controls with AI assistance.
"You've never played football like this before," said Kaz Makita, Line Producer of FIFA 09 All-Play. "Our new '8 vs. 8' Footii Match enables you to play an exaggerated style of football where the personality of your Mii comes to life. You can play with your Mii characters against or alongside some of the biggest stars in a truly unique football experience tailored specifically for the Wii version of FIFA 09."
FIFA 09 on PC now features leading-edge visuals that deliver graphics that exploit the power of hi-spec gaming PCs, as requested by PC gamers. Star players are featured in photorealistic quality with remodeled likenesses for ultra-realistic gameplay. FIFA 09 on PC also features customizable mouse gameplay controls that deliver deeper, more intuitive command over your squad. Plus, customizable widgets are now integrated into the menu system to connect you to the FIFA community and real-world football so you stay connected while playing FIFA 09.
"We are committed to investing and innovating to create a PC specific experience," said Producer Paul Hossack. "Gamers want a gameplay experience exclusively for PC and FIFA 09 on PC delivers this."
With 500 new animation sequences and all-new collision and shielding systems—representing the biggest innovations to the multiplatform EA SPORTS football engine in four years— FIFA 09 delivers more responsive, intelligent and realistic physical action on the PlayStation 2 system. The new collision detection system with 360 degree coverage enables players to behave according to their physical attributes where player speed, direction and strength determine everything from the severity of the collision to the outcome of possession. Changes to the animation system reward the skillful gamer during one-on-one situations between attackers and defenders. Tuned acceleration attributes enable swifter virtual players to possess quicker first steps and gain advantage in sprints. Plus, four new skill moves—scoop turns, rainbow flicks, heel-to-heel knocks and ball rolls—give you a total of 32 tricks in your arsenal to perform just like Ronaldinho.
FIFA 09 on the PSP system and Nintendo DS now include the innovative Be A Pro feature, including the unique Be A Pro camera that re-creates the rush and excitement of racing in on goal, designed exclusively for each system.
Additional major feature innovations for PLAYSTATION 3, Xbox 360 and PC will be revealed later this month and announced at the Leipzig Games Convention in August. Screenshots and product fact sheets can be downloaded at www.electronicarts.co.uk/press.
To learn more about specific features on each platform visit www.FIFA.ea.com.
FIFA 09, scheduled for worldwide release this autumn, is developed by EA Canada in Vancouver, B.C. It has not yet been rated by ESRB or PEGI.

August 04, 2011Health Tip: Living With Chronic Kidney Disease (HealthDay News) -- Chronic kidney disease often requires making changes to your diet, the U.S. National Library of Medicine says. U.S. 'Stroke Belt' May Also Be 'Sepsis Belt' THURSDAY, Aug. 4 (HealthDay News) -- People living in a region of the southeastern United States known as the "Stroke Belt" are known to have significantly higher rates of stroke deaths than the rest of the country. New research reveals these residents are also at greater risk for sepsis, a severe illness in which bacteria overwhelms the bloodstream. Health Plans Much Costlier for Docs in U.S. Than Canada: Study THURSDAY, Aug. 4 (HealthDay News) -- The cost of dealing with health insurers and payers is nearly four times higher for U.S. physicians than for Canadian physicians, a new study finds. Eating Disorders Can Harm Women's Fertility THURSDAY, Aug. 4 (HealthDay News) -- Women with the eating disorders anorexia and bulimia may take a bit longer to get pregnant than other women, a new study has found. Many Military Vets in College Plagued By Thoughts of Suicide THURSDAY, Aug. 4 (HealthDay News) -- American military veterans attending college are far more likely to entertain thoughts of suicide than fellow students who have never been in the military, a new national survey indicates. Today's Teens Less Likely to Be Heavy Smokers, Study Finds THURSDAY, Aug. 4 (HealthDay News) -- Compared with high school smokers two decades ago, today's teen smokers are more likely to smoke only occasionally, or smoke fewer cigarettes each day, according to a new study. Stem Cell Therapy Holds Promise for Kidney Disease THURSDAY, Aug. 4 (HealthDay News) -- Researchers may be one step closer to harnessing the power of stem cells to help treat, and potentially cure, kidney disease. Gene Mutation Can Leave People Without Fingerprints THURSDAY, Aug. 4 (HealthDay News) -- People with a rare condition where they are born without fingerprints may have a genetic mutation, according to a new study.

This fun little show, written by and starring Anthony Tournis and Colin Milroy, parodies the explosion-happy buddy-cop films of the 80s (48 Hours, Lethal Weapon) with a near religious evocation of their tropes: the mismatched pals (one "dirty," the other by-the-book), the overworked boss, the cartoonish violence, the sexist portrayal of women. Though it's sometimes hard to tell if they've come to satirize the genre's excesses or to revel in them, the show has a charming and rough-hewn exuberance about it. Many members of the large cast still seemed under-rehearsed on opening weekend, but a few really shone, most notably Dennis Schnell as uber-bad guy Johannes Finkelstein and Sara Gorsky as Nazi she-wolf Ursula von Hodenesser. —Jack Helbig $20-$25
What's the point? I wondered when I saw Alzan Pelesic wearing whiteface as Ebenezer Scrooge, his eyes and lips highlighted in black. What's to be gained from seeing Charles Dickens's A Christmas Carol staged as if it were an old-time silent movie? This production doesn't supply a rational answer. But I found that rationality mattered less and less to me as it went on. Silent Theatre Company's adaptation suffers considerably from problems brought on by trying to boil the scenario down to a quick 75 minutes. The original story's two holiday parties, for instance, are merged into one at the cost of plausibility. Still, Diane Hamm's costumes for the ghosts of Christmas past, present, and future evince a great, otherworldly charm; together with Isaiah Robinson's witty piano score and some generous performances (Nick Leininger, in particular, contributes a marvelous physical evocation of Jacob Marley's suffering), they more than justify the show on sensual grounds. —Tony Adler $15-$20
http://silenttheatre.comFrancis O'Neill, who served as Chicago's chief of police from 1901 to 1905, was a bit obsessed with the music of his native Ireland. He once disappeared, prompting assassination rumors and a police manhunt, only to turn up at the house of a friend—where he was busy playing duets. But in the latest version of Adam Whiteman's musical tribute, which Stefan Brun returns to direct, this fascinating character gets a lackluster dramatization. Though Tom Cassidy portrays O'Neill with genial confidence, the stilted script bends more toward hagiography than genuine storytelling. The show's stellar music—selected from O'Neill's own published collections of traditional Irish tunes, and played by a talented trio—remains the true star of this quirky jaunt. —Keith Griffith $25
Burlesque, vaudeville, shtick, and other types of performance, hosted by Silent Theatre. $10

posted a message on Grats and thank you for making this thread!Posted in: Diablo III General Discussion
You have spent a great deal of gold accross all of those characters... did you sell things from a previous character to make money for your next one or did you just have a lot of gold? Clearly you made a decent amount off of your findings but did you ever resort to buying gold to fill in any gaps or was it all farmed?
Would you only sell something on the ah if it was worth over 1mil or do you sell lots of lesser things?
Edit: Also your demon hunter farming setup would be great! -
posted a message on Switched out my Zuni's chest for a Tal Rasha and Depth Diggers for Blackthorne's... Also got a crit+as amulet.Posted in: Wizard: The Ancient Repositories
When the servers back up I'll be surveying the wreckage of my poor past choices. I'm trying to get as much out of 10m as I can while maintaining +150k damage but I feel like I've just lost a lot of AR/ehp...
Gonna need to get cracking on some new shoulders. I wish crafting would swing more my way but 100 crafts later, nothing much except for nice gloves. I hope I've made some good financial choices finally but it seems no big steps can be made from here without spending big money.
Trying to stay away from gold purchasing from RMAH as it has become quite dangerous in times past. On the other hand I'm awful at making 100s of millions farming in game but I'm great at working part time shifts at a restaurant for the equivalent dollar value.
Hard to rationalize. -
posted a message on So I'm seeing a lot of different setups, each with Life on hit on a Ring, Amulet or Pants... (in very very few cases on weapon), so how do you decide where to put that life on hit so you can devote the rest to trifecta stats and such (or in pants case Inna's)?Posted in: Wizard: The Ancient Repositories
Edit: Also do no wizards ever get blackthorne's pants AND amulet? seems like a lot of great stats between them... or is that just too much? -
posted a message on I really wanted to be in on that EHP train which is why I felt so on-point getting a 3 piece Zuni's bonus including a decent Pox... but now I feel like I've missed the mark in both build cohesiveness AND ehp.Posted in: Wizard: The Ancient Repositories
Thanks again for the clarification Jaetch.
OT Edit: 1.0.8 sounds pretty cool! Game seems to be going in a great direction. -
posted a message on Also Ras, grats on the sickest amulet craft ever. I've only attempted 8 so far but I don't see myself getting that for a good while.Posted in: Wizard: The Ancient Repositories
posted a message on Everything is very clear to me now... thanks Bagstone and RasAlgethi... I'll also study Jaetch's guide just so I can remember it.Posted in: Wizard: The Ancient Repositories
Now that minimal life on hit seems fine in conjunction with blood weapon I guess I can ditch my zuni's chest and go for a tal rasha's :\
Trade in these Depth Diggers for Blacks or Inna's
Find a high speed/apoc chantodo with some damage
Find an AS/CC amulet/bracers... (though for crit and such I really wonder if I should invest in Natalya's shoes and ring :\ but then what do i do bout zuni's pox??) This Zuni stuff was a really bad choice.
Analysis paralysis getting to me again... The one big thing I gleaned from all this is that my Crit Damage (a coveted stat to me as I liked archon) was overvalued and that I should have just gone for cc/as on everything first and left CD to my weapon primarily (but now investing in a chantodo's with ias I dunno that I can even accomplish crit dam).
I don't have the money to be super duper with two builds so I feel like I should just commit fully to cmww until I get the money for more sets since cmww is the alpha for all things wizard (sans low mp speed runs). -
posted a message on RasAlgethi and Jaetch are two examples of cm wizards with huge ehp, great damage but no lifesteal/loh/apoc... I always found these to be very useful things on most wizards in general, how do you guys get by without those sustaining things? Is your ehp just so high that you are never threatened by anything?Posted in: Wizard: The Ancient Repositories
I'm assuming you guys are farming mp10 with those setups/builds. What are your attack speeds also? I see so many debates between the right attack speed be it 2.5, 2.7 or even 3.0aps but some of the higher end wizards could seriously give a fuck cm/ww or not.
I feel like I'm missing something in terms of what a "good" build is... is that type of archon build with that gear setup for mid-mp speed runs or for uber bosses or high mp? Is that the best applicable method with that level of gear? -
posted a message on Does the Tal-Rasha's set bonus do anything to your damage stats on paper?Posted in: Wizard: The Ancient Repositories
posted a message on For observation I have now switched to my ideal high MP spec (although sometimes I switch Crystal Shell/Prismatic Armor/Chain Explosion thing/Crit +15% nova/and teleport-fracture when i'm really scared).Posted in: Wizard: The Ancient Repositories
If I could stay in the build I'm currently using and do High MP that would be stellar. I love meteors. Has that been deemed lame or less effective yet? I know chain explosions procs CM more but I like the LoH proc from liquefy and the burst from meteor itself...
Also Please note my gear and see what I could lose and in favor of what... I just realized I haven't shown my CM spec/gear even once.
Edit: Sometimes I switch from Liquefy to Meteor Shower because it procs many crits, does good LoH regen and looks awesome.
By the way you guys are amazing. I can't thank you enough for helping even if it doesn't mean much to you to do so. I'm a concept artist for small games companies so if any of you would like drawings I'd gladly give ya a discount - To post a comment, please login or register a new account.

Take Down
My friend Jaime found out I wasn't going to have a Christmas tree this year because of E and just couldn't stand it. For my birthday she bought us one. It's now time to put away the decorations and I just don't want to. Let me just say, I'm SO GLAD I don't have to put away a full size tree. I love miniature ornaments. The children decorated it for us, I think they did a great job!


text: A married couple flees Cuba by raft so that the wife (Mercedes Renard) can be treated by House (Hugh Laurie). The raft flounders and the couple is rescued by the Coast Guard (to whom this episode is dedicated), but all of her medical records are lost at sea. Though he feigns indifference to the woman's plight, House agrees to treat her very delicate heart condition--and when she suddenly and inexplicably takes a turn for the worse, his first impulse is to blame his staff, an emotional outburst which yields unanticipated consequences. Meanwhile, a last-ditch effort is made to prevent Foreman (Omar Epps) from resigning. This final episode of House's third season comes to a jaw-dropping conclusion when it is revealed that Foreman is not the only clinic staffer who has made a sudden (and apparently permanent) exit! ~ Hal Erickson, Rovi

i think i just heard an aneurysm somewhere south of me.
ok, haters.
let's go over to the Dave/Phish thread.
CLEVELAND — You may be wondering why your first paycheck of 2013 is a bit smaller – two percent smaller to be exact.
A tax break expired, and it has nothing to do with the fiscal cliff.
For the past two years, all working Americans have been getting a two-percent tax break on their social security taxes.
We normally pay 6.2 percent.
But because of the recession, President Obama and Congress dropped the rate to 4.2 percent, but only until the end of 2012.
Now workers are once again paying social security taxes at the rate of 6.2 percent.
We got a break on that tax so we could spend more money, put it back into the economy and help with the recession. But with that tax being taken out once again, we will have less to spend.
For someone who makes $50,000 a year, they will pay an extra $1,000 a year.
"By giving us that two percent tax reduction, there is less money going into the Social Security fund, and I think that when the fiscal cliff negotiations were going on there wasn't anyone in Congress looking to shortfall Social Security because that's a big issue that they face," said Joseph Mentrek, with the accounting firm Meaden & Moore in Cleveland.
So, that smaller paycheck is here to stay.
It affects every US citizen who makes money
I got a sizable bonus and my expense report paid. The Dic is sittin pretty tight now.
I believe that social security should be phased out and that money should go into a personal 401k or the equivalent. In the end people would make out better, but the government would lose their play money.

Sixth monthly meeting of the workgroup of Move Commons, open to anyone interested (even if he/she didn't come to the previous meetings). Move Commons is a webtool that allows volunteers to connect with social organizations that match their interests. If you'd like to know more about the initiative, you can find more info in the page about our first meeting or in the website http://movecommons.org
Move Commons is a project of the Comunes Collective.
The idea of Move Commons is to push social organizations towards the Commons paradigm, while allowing: 1) others to understand your initiative's approach, 2) connecting with other similar collectives, 3) volunteers finding the initiative easier.
The workgroup of Move Commons aims to have a monthly meeting to debate and shape the evolution of the tool. The community behind the project is open, and makes this call to any type of collaborators out there that would like to contribute with feedback, suggestions and collaborations of any kind.

Our ability is the noon hour here on the East Coast so let's talk about food one of my favorite subjects my co workers have nicknamed me the closer because after I finish my meal I start spying what's going on -- the table and stealing food from my coworkers I'm joined by -- in the -- he's the co-founder.
Of -- de which -- celebrity cuisine talent to offer recipes to every day.
It's described as a video recipe service that also.
Delivers ingredients to your door Julian how does that work.
Hey Jeff and thanks for having me so basically -- were holding reunions for you to progress that he's designed by the top -- New York City.
And then comes with it be the other set connection tell you have to come to recipes step by step so you go to the web site.
You think there is if you like you're sitting this servings you get that you heard it and then you have to in your kitchen.
And for those who are interested what is your website so -- -- -- -- dot com.
And and you can move it very well -- that I actually had the product designers so we made everything in house.
And you'll find all the videos for free on the web site.
We actually build that's the -- that they hear where you can find videos and do you deal will actually well for you at the end of the inched up so it's basically like you had to check in your -- -- -- and it's probably good that were in separate cities because I would be sampling you're aware but I understand that you you actually have some items there that you can.
Show us on set.
Exactly so I read today a -- by -- heed their chef of the Lexington rescue with the media executive chef for a governor Romney he's in London.
And so he made a great recipe it's -- yes targets stuff -- and so here's the bag that you get you can see that decision today and we had like showcasing the residents say is present the F -- -- for common.
Then he -- -- -- -- -- Regan that you actually gave that he hurts your door so we're very concerned about the quality of our product and portable or between them.
Here you'll see that you get -- may feel in -- -- -- this team understands.
Are in the water -- so -- gets fresh to your door.
We only work with a -- Let up quoting Reid and for a noble you may FedEx a lot of packaging that all packaging is actually made up -- -- -- -- -- steel box is that.
So which contained originally -- then made -- -- -- and their toll combustible issue leading industry to -- to go way that's paper.
And so everything is very measured and that's and that's I think that everything there so you get navigable stocks that sold the paper -- yes targets the fresh on the -- In.
I that the value -- ice cubes in it so I mean he quit and -- -- And -- and pre -- that's that's amazing what what do you do before chef de.
Actually have a fresh as you can hear and I told the world for almost few few months and I really fell in love and with food.
And that I wanted -- to share that passion was people and especially at home.
I -- in the US is very challenging to -- Get fresh ingredients that the reasonable price and then you know -- -- that in -- and cooking.
And there is he's got -- products where you'll see oldest TV show then people have and they were what's that mean cooking shows.
That people who -- -- that's so I wouldn't I want it to -- that.
Detaining shows Weezer actually cooking and -- -- -- self at home.
And and what drives your passion for food it did sounds like you've always had it.
I mean in -- and whether you like it or not.
We have eight weeks of paid vacation and that things great -- -- anybody's it's great because you learn how to cope with their rent by your rent -- in your house.
And this summer anyone is basically the concern and in the morning you go to the -- -- series and then you cook and that's what happens when you have eight weeks that big -- paid vacation.
And -- USA Phil I mean most people at these are my age.
Get disconnected ended don't turn out to cool the way I did -- and I wanted to bring that to the table in the US.
And and and then did take me through this transition where your be your passionate about cooking -- in France and then you take this.
To this US based web site how did you get started.
With the -- -- what with the -- side of the of your your cooking passion.
All right so actually it's that -- Commuters -- and management friends.
And I need to make sense programs -- at Stanford big congress and then -- -- -- and about sin that we -- -- program.
And so that I think in New York it was working -- -- -- equals that guy's doing social stuff around key and -- with a product that they're there.
And I felt that -- Westbrook and and and that's how I came up with the idea of -- day.
And then I raise venture capital from the small -- for in the in Europe.
And we basically built the website we did everything else cells from the videos through speculating that you see -- website itself.
And so how three -- -- we -- -- technologist.

Strange. RE: Need help installing XBMCbuntu on Acer Revo R3700 please - jawilljr - 2012-04-10 19:26 Finchy, please see this thread. Especially post #10. Sometimes you have to blacklist r8169 and use r8168 instead. Hope this helps. Jerry RE: Need help installing XBMCbuntu on Acer Revo R3700 please - Finchy - 2012-04-10 20:01 Crap! I did; echo "blacklist r8169" | sudo tee -a /etc/modprobe.d/blacklist.conf sudo modprobe -rf r8169 sudo modprobe -v r8168 sudo depmod -a sudo update-initramfs -u but it's disabled r8169 but says Module r8168 not found! Now there is no connection at all! How do I unblacklist r8169 and down the drivers for r8168?! RE: Need help installing XBMCbuntu on Acer Revo R3700 please - Finchy - 2012-04-10 20:42 Ah, looking at this blog - http://murzal-arsya.blogspot.co.uk/2012/01/ubuntu-1110-and-realtek-rtl8111rtl8168.html it appears that Ubuntu thinks it has an R8169 in but it's an R8168. This tells me how to do it, but I'm limited with Linux and don't know how to get it off the USB stick at /dev/sdc1! Can anyone tell me the commands missing from this blog to change directory to the USB stick, extract the files and install those drivers? Thanks! RE: Need help installing XBMCbuntu on Acer Revo R3700 please - pumkinut - 2012-04-10 22:38 It's not that Ubuntu thinks it's an 8169, it's that the default driver r8169 should work for both the 8169 and 8168 phy chipsets. The r8169 is broken and doesn't work with the 8168 chipsets well at all. The r8168 isn't included by default so this is why you need to download and compile the driver from Realtek, then blacklist r8169 and insert r8168. You need to compile it on the machine that you're going to use it on, as it's kernel and architecture specific. If you have the source files saved on a USB thumbdrive, first make sure you determine which /dev device is your USB drive with: Code: sudo fdisk -l Code: mount Code: sudo mkdir /media/usb The mkdir command makes a new directory (use a name that's easy to remember) for a new mount point. The mount mount -t command mounts the drive. You may not need to give it a filetype, if it's fat32 or ext formatted you shouldn't need to. You may need to install ntfs-3g if it's ntfs formatted. The mount command all by itself just shows what's mounted and where the mount points are. You just copy the directory (recursive copy command cp -r) to the xbmc home directory and then follow your previously linked page to compile the kernel module and insert it. The autorun.sh script should do that all of that, looks like you'll need to do a Code: sudo autorun.sh If the script, for whatever reason doesn't work, post back. I have instructions for manually compiling the r8168 driver, inserting it, and making sure it comes up with every reboot. I've had to go through the procedure a couple of times with my HTPC. Actually, this is why I can't use Openelec. They have the r8169 kernel module statically compiled in and my NIC is completely unstable with it. Because Openelec is built as an appliance, you can't compile your own drivers and make them work. RE: Need help installing XBMCbuntu on Acer Revo R3700 please - Finchy - 2012-04-10 23:10 The USB drive is fat32 and there's nothing else on it but the driver from. It's sdc but I can't work out what to put. is the /media/usb needed in the Code: sudo mkdir /media/usb And for Code: sudo mount -t <filesystem> /dev/sd<x> /media/usb Code: sudo mount -t fat32 /dev/sdc /media/usb RE: Need help installing XBMCbuntu on Acer Revo R3700 please - pumkinut - 2012-04-11 02:05 If you know the drive is fat32, then you would do the following: 1) Make a directory to mount the drive to: Code: sudo mkdir /media/usb 2) Mount the drive (since it's fat32 you may not need to specify the filesystem: Code: sudo mount /dev/sdc /media/usb 2a) If that doesn't work, for whatever reason, specify the filesystem. In this case vfat is the fat32 filesystem driver. Code: sudo mount -t vfat /dev/sdc /media/usb The last command should complete with no feedback. If it does, check to see that /dev/sdc is mounted where you want it by just issue mount (no switches or sudo needed). That will enumerate all mounted devices and their respective mount points. After that, move the files over and start with compilation. Edit: You may want to check to see whether or not your thumbdrive is auto mounted or not when you insert it. Just issue the mount command (again, no switches or sudo) and see if /dev/sdc is mounted anywhere. If it is, just copy the files over without all the extra directory and mount commands. RE: Need help installing XBMCbuntu on Acer Revo R3700 please - Finchy - 2012-04-11 20:00 Nope. Says 'autorun.sh' command not found. I couldn't work out how to change the directory to the USB drive (sdc1) so I went into XBMCbuntu and copied the files over to /tmp but I still couldn't get it working. To be honest, I'm kind of working off your instructions plus the earlier bits from that blog and am really getting confused! I still have the old drivers installed as Code: rmmod r8169 My only experience of Linux is copying in commands from guides and don't really know what's going on with most of it so you really will need to give me an idiots guide if I'm going to get there! RE: Need help installing XBMCbuntu on Acer Revo R3700 please - pumkinut - 2012-04-11 20:06 For the autorun script you need to do the following: Make sure you're in the same directory as the autorun script. You should be able to perform an "ls" and see the script. Code: sudo chmod +x ./autorun.sh This changes the script so that it's executable (+x) and the ./ indicates that the script is in the current directory. If that command completes you should be able to run it with the following: Code: sudo ./autorun.sh Again, the ./ tells the command interpreter to look in the directory you're currently in. If that still doesn't work, post back. I can post the instructions I used for manually compiling the driver and getting everything up and running, but I can't do that until tonight. RE: Need help installing XBMCbuntu on Acer Revo R3700 please - Finchy - 2012-04-11 20:33 Thanks. When I do that it says "check the old driver and unload it, but then looks like it's gone on to build the module and install the new one for R8168. It says it's backed up and renamed R8169. Presumably I still need to add R8169 to the blacklist? |
