Actually it does make sense. Poor people have traditionally taken much better care of each other than prosperous people have.
Slacker! You too can make $5.5 million an hour if you really try! Seriously, prayers and good Karma to you. Have more of those than $.
If I get a freaking extra dime, Suze will have it on default. Got you covered in a few days girlfriend, but only if you ain't prejudiced.
Suze., the checks in the mail, but please hold on to it until the 18th of July. Ya know the greedy-ass bankers love overdrafts.
Getting personal. Here's an idea for what it's worth. Go to your Yellow Pages and look up: Employment Contractors, Temporary Help. This is not a permanent job with one company…..but, 1) you get paid at the end of each day 2) you get to network 3) you get to see which companies are actually hiring. This tactic is a short term fix which could help to pay the rent.
I just earned a very large commission [almost $100K] and would generally help out someone like you but you are your own worst enemy- always blaming the system, your health, etc. With all due respect, I urge you to grow up and get over the perceived past slights- be positive about your future- maybe try to land a temp job and I will re-consider.
Shit dude, you just ran into 100 G's and you're cracking on Suze for getting sick and not being able to get a gig? You sound like a republican who blames "us" for being lazy whiners. Looks like you'd slip Suze a few bucks since you're so goddamned healthy, employed and arrogant! Save your lecture and probably your fucking slimey-assed dollars too (although that's for Suze to decide).
Well "LL" I certainly can't rival your good fortune, but you know what I gave something because I AM a liberal and I DO blame the system for much of what ails us all!
Logicalliberal might as well change his/her screen name to Neoliberal.
Wow, what a CEO (Condescending, Elitist and Out-of-touch) comment.
I think that logicalliberal just wanted a pretext to brag about his/her big payday.
LL, why don't you take that $$$ and $tart a $uperpac?
I can't find your paypal link, can you please add that to your post?
Unfortunately, Paypal refuses to accept either of the credit cards that I have used before (as they did when I tried to use them for jussaricpork) I used Wepay around 3 weeks ago which was limited to $20.00, I am trying to send you $25.00 via Amazon. Please let me know if Amazon forwards this amount to you. Thank you
Where's the link?
suzie, forward me a copy of your resume. I'm a headhunter in Philly. Ya never know, I know lots of folks around town. I'll give you a call when I get it. You get my email from this reply, right?
All of us need help on occasion.
Sorry Susan, finally figure out how I goofed-used com instead of net. Got it resolved. Donation through Amazon
(just to say, leoinaugust ,…. if Jeffy Bezos/Amazon (et al), the bottle fly wing obsessor[s], had never risen to power, many more of us, who feel Susies pain, would have been able to help also, and it would be far more than the "chump change" (just enough to gulp some oxygen and be "Saved" by our Higher, Pale "Male" TECHCLOUD Godz) you appear to be offering through the Sweat Shop of "Amazon.")
(in other words, to put it bluntly: Amazon, paypal, webpay are not, and never were, friendly.
They're $$$$Incorporated Predators$$$$, and that's why they used such innocuous and flattering names to name their 'inventions' after.)
(certainly not to blame you for anything, leo, just saying.)
Sent a few bucks your way. Wishing you the best for better times ahead.
Well non A–my only other options are Western Union, Moneygram or use snail mail with a personal check from where I bank. No agency I use will be without flaws or pure as the driven snow. What would be your alternative? Thanks.
Become a Republican, get a real job and then you won't need to beg for help
The best that I can do right now is wish you a very Happy and Peaceful Birthday! I'm really stretched cash-wise at the moment, but hang on and I'll get something to you soon. Oh btw, I'm not a vindictive type, but if Stephen is really a human being, maybe, just maybe, he'll try to help also!
Happy Birthday, Suzie.
May the next year be better than the last.
Keep on keepin' on,
and non carborundum illegitemae
Happy Birthday, Susie! And please take good, good care of yourself. Get the care you need. Use the good internist you found to ensure you can take care of yourself as long as possible.
You are a national treasure, and you should be well employed. BUT your kind of wisdom and analysis is no longer valued by the Powers That Be. In the 60′s and 70′s, you would have been a reporter rock star!!!
Maybe Stephen is attempting irony?
In any case, happy birthday Susie.
And happy name day too, whenever that my be.
(Just looked it up — there seem to be seven of them.
Just missed one on Sept. 19, but another one is coming up on Oct. 17.)
Speaking of demographic shitstorms, no one seems to have noticed that Romney introduced a new safe harbor into the Medicare mix in the last debate. He used 60 as the age for no change. That's a huge 5 year shift with a lot of new folks getting vouchered.
Susie – how much do you need for your insurance payment?
You what will be funny? When Romney gets elected and then you see our economy turn around and you get a job! Won't that just piss you off? Maybe, just maybe when you're done with blaming Republicans and start seeing what obama has done to this country, you will see the light. Good luck with that.
Jason, is there any chance you can just crawl on back to the hole you came from?
Susie — I dropped a few bucks in the pot.
dandy: I don't think Jason can bend that tightly, but if he can, good for him. Hope he sees the light at the end of the tunnel.
Sent the minimum, all I could afford,hope you make your payment and health improves.
Always check your blog for articles and great sounds.
Best to you,
Hey Suz;
back again with the little bit I could do.
Hope other readers out there in possibly better[much bettor isn't a far reach from here] situations than me will see their way to help-out.
Keep on,

Here are some of the first pictures of a "living, breathing" ASUS ROG Ares graphics accelerator. This ASUS' latest creation packs two AMD Cypress GPUs running at 850 MHz (core), 1200 MHz (memory), with twice the amount of memory (2 GB per GPU, 4 GB total). It also packs an enthusiast-grade voltage circuitry that gives it an amount of overclocking headroom, as well as a complex cooling assembly. At its CeBIT exhibit, ASUS also showed off the card's 3DMark Vantage score in the Extreme preset. The card secured a score of X14416, compared to a typical score of the reference Radeon HD 5970 to be around the X11000 mark. The bench was driven by an Intel Core i7 965 XE processor, ASUS Rampage II Extreme motherboard, and 6 GB of triple-channel memory. The ROG Ares should be out in a few weeks time. Its price and availability remain a mystery. Source: PC Games Hardware
wow...... wow...look those card like litle beast monster..with red and black color...and POWER hungryand expensive Too
hahha that cooler man lol...... i got no love for it... card sounds monster but man that cooler just makes monster look lol strange
Did anyone notice how screwed up the fins on the heatsink look in the second picture? It reminds me of some of the car radiators you see at the junk yard. This card, or at least the heatsink, has definitely been very well used or mishandled! Yeah, but it isnt really AMD's responce now it is? It is more ASUS doing the crazy shit that ASUS does...
I still don't think this is AMD's answer, as per normal AMD/ATi have told their partners they can make a beefy 5970 if they want. It'll nice to see what other partners release.
Even I'm not going to argue with that. It was always just the title Sampsa used. Asus seems to give a good amount of space for their engineers to come up with interesting stuff we can drool at. Sapphire is releasing a similiar card but they just doubled the memory and slapped an Arctic Cooling fan on top of it. Wohoo, great engineering. As for AMD, I'm guessing they still have something up their sleeve, maybe a 5890 or something.
I noticed the CPUZ screen shows the CPU speed @ 1.600ghz. Im guessing its throttling down do to no usage?
Record-seekers wipe their 'backs' with $$$ bills. Besides you don't know its price to come to that conclusion.
Which still isn't much considering ROG MARS was "1.7 - 2x" the price of a GTX 295 for people who could buy it. ASUS was able to clear off its 1000 unit inventory.
ROG ARES is a graphics card that follows the same footsteps as 7800GT DUAL and ofc ROG MARS. Just like MARS, ARES is 100% ASUS engineering.
And CFing two Ares better than that. Once again, price does not matter for the target consumer of Ares. It's the kind of people who think spending $2000 for a 'better binned' Core i7 XE chip is better than a $999 boxed chip, and so on..
i'm more a rasional type of guy. i would ever pay more for a single component that only has a higher clock, or a higher multiplier.

This rug is gorgeous! Exceeded my expectations so much! I love how the pattern is larger on the 8 x 10 as it helps my room seem larger than it really is. If you want to see a better view of the rug, see it on my blog here: 346living.com/2011/06/01/my-rug-addiction-continues It's super soft and thick which is great and I also only noticed a small amount of shedding, nothing a good vacuum a week couldn't handle. The color is more blue, but I do see hints of slate gray under certain lighting, either way I love everything about it!
I haven't purchased this rug yet, but was reading the reviews. I noticed so many people complaining about it shedding. Just in case you are reading those reviews and don't know or understand quality. You want a rug that sheds, this means its a natural fiber. Wool rugs will sheds for several months before they stop. So don't let that hinder you from your purchase, as I guess some people don't understand what a good quality product comes with.
On one end of the rug, there were very light light bluish white spots. It seems maybe the color wasn't saturated all the way through or maybe it was used by someone previously and sprayed some bleach on it--who knows. Anyways, it was bothering me enough to return it. Also, it shed like CRAZY. I had vacuumed twice a day for 2 weeks straight and it still filled up my dyson all the way. I know from past experience a good quality rug will not shed like that. Quality wools rugs have very small minor shedding, this rug was extreme shedding.
I poured over reviews of this rug for several days before purchasing because I was enamored with the design but fearful of all the horrible shedding stories I heard in the reviews. I took the leap, purchased the rug and it has been fantastic. We have had it for several weeks to a month now and I have had zero shedding problems, at least nothing noticeable. If you get down at eye level with the rug you can see a few miniscule fibers on the surface, but it is a very thick hand-tufted rug, so this is normal. And it is so minor I haven't even thought about vaccuuming every other day like some of the other reviewers. Great design, great price for the size, no massive shedding issues - don't be dissuaded by the bad reviews.
I absolutely LOVE LOVE LOVE this rug. I get so many compliments on it, and the rug is SO plush and soft, and feels MUCH more expensive than it actually is. It does shed a little bit, but the shedding does go down and let me tell you it's not that bad and it's definitely worth the $$! See the actual rug in my home here: http://decorgreat.blogspot.com/2011/11/my-favorite-space.html
Bought this carpet for our new child to play on. After 30 min they had accumulated a full football size worth of lint simply by scooting around on it. The rug shed so much we returned it and exchanged it for another rug immediately. I know some reviews say it sheds, but others say it doesn't. I can tell you it definitely did shed for us!
This rug is beautiful, thick, soft and warm and doesn't shed. very happy with the purchase. and can't beat the shipping price!
I love this rug. It is the perfect choice for my office. The colors were true from the picture. Excellent quality at a great price.
I read a reviews before purchasing the rug and it helped me decide to go ahead take the plunge and make the purchase.. I opened the package, rolled out the rug, were about an 1/2" thicker than the rest of the rug I bought before. It's a really pretty and unique feature. Long story short, the rug is a beautiful addition to my office and the colors are true to the online picture and I'm very happy with my purchase....
I purchased this rug about 3 weeks ago. Arrived approx. 9 days later. It was well wrapped for the cross-country transit. It is a wonderful quality, thick wool carpet. Colors are vibrant but not overpowering. No matter it gives a terrific contrast & blends well against my Pecan floor and grey stone fireplace. This is a quality rug and the money was well-spent on its purchase. It should provide many, many useful years of service. It doesn't shed and it has no smell. I recommend this rug enthusiastically.

Approximately 50% of patients with depression may have migraine. The two conditions are said to be co-morbid which means they occur together more likely than by chance. According to the DSM-IV, a person who suffers from major depressive disorder must either have a depressed mood or a loss of interest or pleasure in daily activities consistently for at least a two week period. This mood must represent a change from the person's normal mood; social, occupational, educational or other important functioning must also be negatively impaired by the change in mood. A depressed mood caused by substances (such as drugs, alcohol, medications) or which is part of a general medical condition is not considered to be major depressive disorder.
The symptoms are not better accounted for by bereavement (i.e., after the loss of a loved one) and the symptoms persist for longer than two months or are characterized by marked functional impairment, morbid preoccupation with worthlessness, suicidal ideation, psychotic symptoms, or psychomotor retardation.
This disorder is characterized by the presence of the majority of these symptoms:
Depressed mood most of the day, nearly every day, as indicated by either subjective report (e.g., feels sad or empty) or observation made by others (e.g., appears tearful). (In children and adolescents, this may be characterized as an irritable mood.)
Markedly diminished interest or pleasure in all, or almost all, activities most of the day, nearly every day
Significant weight loss when not dieting or weight gain (e.g., a change of more than 5 of body weight in a month), or decrease or increase in appetite nearly every day.
Insomnia or hypersomnia nearly every day
Psychomotor agitation or retardation nearly every day
Fatigue or loss of energy nearly every day
Feelings of worthlessness or excessive or inappropriate guilt nearly every day
Diminished ability to think or concentrate, or indecisiveness, nearly every day
Recurrent thoughts of death (not just fear of dying), recurrent suicidal ideation without a specific plan, or a suicide attempt or a specific plan for committing suicide.

To: James FallowsOK, I actually like Van Hunt, and I'm interested in the way the beginning of this number reminds me of Pup Tent by Luna in the 90s -- which itself is better than I remembered; but I see only peril and heartache ahead if I dig myself in any deeper on this topic. So here endeth the music blogging for the year. (Except to mention that I felt general and unaccustomed boomer-era pride in hearing the way that Fleetwood Mac's Tusk was used in the pilot of The Americans a week ago. Ok, here endeth for real.)

Comments about Soto Muka Liquid-Fuel Stove:
Biggest complaint about this stove is the temperature control, it varies from hot to extremely hot; simmering isn't really in the cards. Love not having to prime and it works great at 12,000 ft. Soto having a proprietary bottle is somewhat annoying but the wide mouth is nice.

It is a little larger and heavier than some other backpacking stoves but the small extra weight is the result of far superior hardware and design. This stove starts up immediately with no mess or fuss. It has simple and effective controls that allow very precise flame control. It will crank out the heat at the wide open setting. It simmers very well also. It is very stable thanks to widely spaced legs which also serve as pot supports. The stove is expensive but well worth it when in use. Great product.

Comments about Soto Muka Liquid-Fuel Stove:
I have been using the Soto Muka for about 6 months and am currently into my 2nd gallon of white gas. That is the context of my experience. I have read many of the reviews here on REI. I believe them. After all, why would someone lie about something like this? That said, my experience has been different from a number of the reviews.
1. I have used this stove on numerous occassions with a reflector and windscreen to melt snow in my Evernew 1.3L pot. My heat shield is a piece of 3/8" closed cell foam wrapped in aluminum foil (to create an appropriate base) and the windscreen is the screen that comes with the stove. I have experienced no warping and certainly no outright disintigration of the stove legs.
2. At the highest flame setting this unit burns gas at a rate that will make your jaw drop. However, if dropped to about 1/2 that, which still puts out an incredible amout of heat, this stove is efficient.
3. I have not burned my pot with this stove. I cannot comment on burning food becuse about the closest I come to cooking is making ramen and oatmeal. I've had no issues whatsoever.
4. While we all know the dangers of cooking inside a tent, this is the only liquid fuel stove I would consider using for that. I've done so on a limited basis and with care (and open vents) I've felt safe. I would not dream of using any stove that requires priming inside a tent.
5. When it is truly cold out the pump does miss the ocassional beat. I've not found it to be a significant issue but can understand why others would. You definitely need to pump this puppy. But, I also feel people overstate this requirement. You do not have to be Popey and it does not somehow "wear you out". It's not difficult, just time consuming and boring.
6. The attention to detail and quality of this stove make it a winner. Soto seems to have thought of everything. The caps for the hose connectons is something every manufacturer should be doing, the little pressure level pop-out pin is a dream come true, the fuel line is as sturdy as I've seen, the pump is basically a standard setting item, the stove folds up and stores nicely and my experience has been the entire thing is rock solid and durable. Time will tell the tale of course. But, to date, I could not be happier.
7. Downsides? The fuel bottles - Airstream trailer and dirigible are your size choices. Also, while nothing to do with the product, I'm presently working with a propane adapter that lets me use my remote canister head. This just might make the need for dangerous white gas/unleaded fuel unecessary. We'll see.

Comments about Soto Muka Liquid-Fuel Stove:
This is by far the easiest to light and use, white gas stove made. I mainly bought this stove for alpine and glacier mountain climbing for snow melting purposes.
It really worked great in this regard until its 3rd day of use on only the 2nd trip I took it on. Using the supplied windscreen and a reflector base the stove completely collapsed under a small 2qt pot full of snow.
I really like the design of this stove and how easy it is to light, but the mfg will need to improve the materials before I every buy another one.

Comments about Soto Muka Liquid-Fuel Stove:
First time using it, just brought this up to elevation. Worked well at home/sea level when I tested it...got it to light easily and even simmer. But at about 11,000', couldnt get this to simmer at all...it was full on or nothing. I was trying to reheat some homemade stew that I had frozen in a ziploc bag but wasnt able to to bring it to a low simmer so it ended up burning the food to the bottom of my pot. I had to rig some rocks to elevate my pot 5" above the Muka flame. My Jetboil, on the other hand, saved the day as I was able to cook the meal as I intended using the pot stabilzer accessory. I was able to precisely control the flame to bring the stew to a slow simmer so don't let anyone tell you the JB is gimmicky...it works!! And yes...the Muka requires A LOT of pumping...
I'm giving it 2 stars because if you're camping at lower levels, then I'm sure the Muka would work well. But I'll be returning this because most of where I like to camp is at higher elevations.

Comments about Soto Muka Liquid-Fuel Stove:
Good stove: easy to set up and light. Quieter than my old svea-123, and no soot; but bulkier (at least for a short trip)--since it requires a fuel tank which can't nest in a cooking pot. Moreover, it has many moving parts (compared to 123), so it's long term reliability may be compromised.
Significant pumping is required, but it's not difficult. Control knob is smallish, but has the advantage of a detent off. Also, as noted by other reviewers, it's difficult to achieve simmer. You can simmer by releasing some air pressure, but then you have to pump again if you want to get full heat.
Best Uses
Comments about Soto Muka Liquid-Fuel Stove:
Took this stove on a week-long full winter backpacking trip. Was a big fan of the compactness, ability to quickly melt snow, and clean burning no-priming functionality. In these aspects, the Soto Muka definitely beats the msr stoves. I was more than willing to put up with some of the negatives: pumping required and lower level of stability (small tripod legs) on the snow compared to the msr stoves.
However, Soto needs to look into the durability of the metal they use for this stove. Half way into my trip my Muka irreperably broke. What seems to have happened was that the flame heat made the base (the housing for the air intake) very fragile. As I was pushing snow into the pot, it's to be expected that there would be some uneven pressure on the legs. What happened was the base sheared off at one of the tripod legs. The result was 2 problems: 1.) Instability, I could balance the pot on only 2 legs, but this could be remedied to some extent with a rock or or metal spoon/etc. 2.) Air intake was off, resulting in a red flame that really couldn't cook much of anything. This problem I couldn't fix in the field. Ended up cooking the rest of the trip with my backup msr...

This stove outperformed expectations melting snow. I used this at 9.5k ft in an October storm last year and totally sold. Yes you have to pump the stove to prime it, this is a great feature btw. Priming the pump is easy too, maybe 2 mins. I passed it to my partner while I built a windbreak and when I was done we were ready to go. I was surprised how fast I was able to melt 4L of snow and make a hot 1/2L. Great stove for making hot water and melting snow.

Comments about Soto Muka Liquid-Fuel Stove:
Quick/Easy to light: Yes
Simple to use: For the most part – like anything new, try it at home first.
Easy to use: Definitely. The included instructions could be better but it's pretty intuitive (I thought)
Safety: The fuel line is metal, flexible and uses a quick disconnect instead of a screw connector. The stove itself gets incredibly hot and takes a bit longer than the Jetboil to cool to temperature where it can be handled/disassembled.
The long part:
I wanted a liquid fuel stove as a back-up to my Jetboil PCS. The main feature of the Muka that really attracted my attention in that it doesn't require priming. It really doesn't. With the fuel control knob in the "Start" position it took one match to light. The initial flame was yellow and it sputtered a bit but quickly (less than a minute) settled down to blue. Moving the fuel knob to "Run", I let it go. The heat this thing throws out is phenomenal! Initially it was about as noisy as my Jetboil but got a little quieter once it got really hot. (And it gets REALLY hot!)
Next test was shutting it off. With the control knob turned to "Stop" it went out in about 2 seconds, maybe less. I waited until the unit was cool to the touch and re-lit it. There was no sputtering this time so I assume there was something on the metal, a preservative perhaps, that had caused it the first time but had since been burned off.
As several posters have noted, it requires a lot of pumping to build up the required pressure but the more fuel in the bottle, the less pumping required. I have the 1 liter bottle and with 8 – 10 ounces of fuel it took a good 5 minutes to get it up to pressure. With nothing but a 70s era Army stove on which to base any previous experience, I will withhold comment regarding the efficiency of the pump itself . It is however, all metal except for the seals and fuel/air lines and that once pressurized I did not have to pump any more.
I did not try the wind screen or heat reflector though I can see how (as mentioned in another review) they would be pretty much more hassle than help and maybe even melt.
In the half hour or so I cycled it on and off it used and insignificant amount of fuel.

Comments about Soto Muka Liquid-Fuel Stove:
I'd love to give 5 stars to an item that I would definitely buy again but I'll have to wait until I've used it for more than five years - its simply too new. I cooked two camp meals over it over the weekend, and on balance would say it's only major issue is the lack of information on long term reliability due to being a new product. It could be very reliable, but the jury is simply out. The cooking experience: as other reviewers have noted, it requires pumping at two intervals: before lighting, expect to pump about 70-120 times on a 3/4 to 1/2 full container of white fuel. At that point, a small pop-up indicator will tell you it is fully charged. After it is lit, it requires another 10-20 pumps and then it burns consistently and for a long time (45+ minutes according to one review) without any adjustments. Pumping takes relatively light effort; think of airing up a mountain bike tire and divide by 3- easy when the unit is upright, but slightly awkward once the stove is lit and bottle laying on its side where it MUST remain in order to stay lit.I'll set aside the high purchase price ([$] once you buy the required Soto fuel canister)and limit my comments to 3 categories:-ProsVery high heat: 15,000 BTU's= fast boil. Combined with a stable base it could be the go-to unit for group cooking under a larger pot.Beautiful engineering- it's a well though out, very light unit with a wider more stable base than the Whisperlite and very sturdy looking metal pump unit. I believe it is rated to hold 10 lbs and I believe it. Stove is very compact (fits perfectly inside my Bugaboo triangular cups, the fuel line is aesthetically right: its very flexible, has a swivel base on the stove, nicely engineered quick disconnect at pump, and fitted plastic caps at both ends to keep clean when not in use. No priming - lights quickly after pressurizing and quickly settles into a consistent blue flame that reportedly will run for a long time without further pumping. After 10-15 minutes, it was still burning at exactly the same level. Clean, and soot free air vent control at shutoff eliminates all sooting and excess fuel and i suspect would eliminate clogging if running gasoline rather than white fuel. There's simply nothing left in the lines. I would love to see some testing on this.Relatively quiet for a high pressure system- At high output, it's much quieter than the Dragonfly. At lower settings, its a hiss that does not hinder conversation and would not wake other campers while still boiling water effectively.Maintenance/Reliability- there are some factory instructional videos on this unit on Youtube which suggest ease of maintenace. Only three things to maintain: the generator with integrated jet ($29), which reportedly will wear out after about 100liters of fuel are run through it, the o-rings ($1) at the bottle seal, and the pump unit ($100?) which requires periodic lubrication. The simplicity suggests a high degree of reliability while the high pressure fuel delivery technology reduces or eliminates (?) clogging due to having unused fuel sitting in the lines. A small maintenance kit with tools, grease, and a couple of o-rings comes with the unit. -ConsIn cold weather(27 degrees farenheit) I could feelthe pump not pressurizing on every downstroke- it would 'slip' about every 5th stroke. This was a new unit. I unscrewed the pump to check the internal pump seals (a pair of parallel rings/seals)- they were properly lubricated. If I had to pick a weak point in the engineering, this could be it. Problem is- it's an integrated seal and besides lubricating, does not appear to be a maintenance or replacement item. How will it wear? I suspect that since it must work across a range of temperatures, it will feel tighter when ambient temps are higher. -Fuel consumption - According to Soto's website and my experience, REI's reported use of 100ml for 31minutes at high heat is INCORRECT. I used about 300ml (slightly less than 1/2 of the smaller 1000ml bottle) to cook two meals at low to medium settings. I think I could cook 2x per day for two people on a two day trip at that rate but gourmet cooking with side dishes is out of the question on a longer trip without one or more large bottles. -I beg to differ (where other reviews were favorable/unfavorable):Heat shield: it comes with a foldable aluminum heat shield base and windscreen. Flimsy, yes, but not your mother's aluminum foil:its comparable to the MSR base and windscreen and for that reason I think will last a long time. In practice base and shield worked well but I think any liquid fuel unit will be a pain [*] when its windy. The stove did not scorch either the semi-leaf littered ground or the picnic table I cooked on. Simmering and suatee-ing: I like to cook, and simmering is the achilles heel of portable stoves. No liquid fuel stove gets consistently good reviews for this but people do find ways to manage the idiosyncracies of their own stoves. Its inherent to the small burner surface. I endorse one reviewer's approach: get a diffuser plate- something that creates a bit of separation between the pot and the burner but I haven't found a reasonably light solution for that yet. I managed to get to a very low boil while still staying reliably lit (no wind) by setting the temp control between its lowest marked setting and the 'air' setting.-High pressure (safety)- some reviewers were concerned about the fact this stove runs at higher pressure. While I would absolutely not want to pressurize a badly dented can, with well maintained equipment, you will pressurize before lighting and you'll very quickly know whether any compromised seals result in leakage. The soto specific canister is reportedly thicker than the MSR canister. On the safety plus side, it requires no priming- ie uncontrolled flame, and has a quick shutoff stop switch that killed the flame immediately, so I would still rate this stove 'top of class' for safety. Pumping- As other reviewers have pointed out, there is significantly more pumping (perhaps 2-3x the effort involved in starting a Whisperlite)but you will NOT need Popeye's forearms to do it, and the prime free start, flame consistency,fiddle free burn time of 45+ minutes, and lack of flareups, fuel smells, and soot are a reward that more than offsets the additional effort. Summary: Excellent backpacking cookware. In a butane/propane canister vs liquid fuel shootout, it neutralizes many of the liquid fuel cons plus gives you dual fuel functionality. Now lets see how it holds up! Despite its price I'll rate it a best buy IF you've got a backup cooking option (alcohol stove?) but you should still consider MSR liquid fuel stoves due to 100% field maintenainability and a generation of reliable field results.

Ode to a skirt
You have lived with me like a sister
But now time's we part
Your beauty is incomparable and likened to some art…
I love selling vintage clothing and do view each piece as mini rare works of art and none more so than the skirt above, from my own private collection sold to my lovely new model, (I don't think I could of parted with it to anyone else!)
It's a striking piece and reminds me of still life paintings from the Middle Ages…
Flemish painter – Jan Brueghel the Elder (1568 – January 13, 1625) sometimes called "Flower" Brueghel, and "Paradise" Brueghel, of which the latter two were derived from his floral still life's which were his favored subjects. Packed with symbolism, flowers representing both the beauty, fragility and ever turning circle of life. Often in the paintings there would be insects, such as for butterflies represents transformation and resurrection while the ant hard work and attention to the harvest, often dead or dying insects (and later sculls, watches, candles burning down, fading fruit) really enforcing that life is transient, capturing memento's of beauty…
The flowers in themselves too offer symbolic meaning, which we are often aware of but have no real recollection how we know what they mean; rose (Virgin Mary, transience, Venus, love); lily (virginity, purity of mind or justice); tulip (showiness, nobility); sunflower (faithfulness, divine love, devotion); violet (modesty, reserve, humility); columbine (melancholy); poppy (power, sleep, death).
So many paintings were produced in this way with the dark background, giving more vibrancy and "life" to the still lifes. It was Monet and Renoir
Below are pieces by Jan Frans van Dael was another Flemish painter – whos works I think are particularly stunning!

LED: white, red, green, blue
220 resistor
5V power supply/battery/arduino board
solderless breadboard
22 gauge solid core jumper wire - It's a good idea to get many colors of wire (esp black and red) so that you can keep your breadboard organized.
Step 1: The Basics
Breadboards are usually divided into four sections, two outer sections and two inner sections. Each row of five sockets in the inner sections are electrically connected to each other (see the green lines in figure 3). The two outer sections of the breadboard are usually used exclusively for power. On many breadboards these sockets will be labeled with colors denoting positive voltage (usually red) and ground (black or blue). It is important to note that on many breadboards the power lines only run half the length of the board (as indicated in figure 3). You will need to run a wire between these two sections to send power to from one end to the other. There is nothing special about the outer sections of the breadboard that makes particularly suitable for power other than that they run most of the length of the board, but if you choose to use these rows for other things you may confuse others or even yourself, so it is good practice to use these for power only.
I use these plugboards all the time, I have dozens of them.
I don't particularly like the standard 22 gauge jumper wire.
I have found other wire I like much much better.
I use 8 conductor "Telephone house wiring wire".
No, not the flexible stuff that goes from the instrument to the wall jack.
I mean the stuff behind the wall. It looks like 26 gauge or so, and comes in roles of 100 feet or more. Strip off the jacket and you have 8 different colored wires. The insulation strips easily.
Its the perfect wire, and cheap to.
Maybe someday I'll be sophisticated enough to use the terminals. :-)
Thank you. I hope you plan to do more.
Fritzing has a nice breadboard picture which would be easy to make an excellent diagram with if you felt like making that step clearer.

Some good news for sponsorship: Compared to other forms of marketing, brand sponsorship experienced the greatest increase in levels of trust in the two years since the last Nielsen Global Online Consumer Survey of more than 25,000 Internet consumers from 50 countries. A full 64 percent of consumers surveyed in April said they trust brand sponsorship, up from 49 percent in April 2007. Latin American consumers are most trusting of brand sponsorships, with 81 percent of both Colombians and Venezuelans, and 79 percent of Brazilians, trusting brand sponsorships. U.S. consumers came in 12th, with 72 percent trusting brand sponsorships. Sponsorships held the least sway among Swedes (33 percent), Latvians (36 percent) and Finns (38 percent). Latin Americans appear to bring their positive feelings about sponsorship with them to the U.S. IEG research reveals that Latino consumers are among the most responsive audiences to sponsorship. more

With huge apologies to Bill Shakespeare, many muni marketing commentators out there seem to be saying: a road by any other name would sell a street. Increasingly, the municipal marketing commentary I'm reading focuses on naming rights. Certainly some of that focus is warranted given the high-profile deals on the table right now (e.g., Barclays and New York's MTA). Yet some of that concentration is because it makes a compellingly controversial image in readers' minds to talk about "plastering" corporate names on public property—roads, parks, monuments, venues and public transportation. We hear the inevitable NASCAR comparisons and the gasp-worthy insinuation that the very pavement of Main Street is for sale. more

The distinction between sponsorship evaluation, valuation and return on investment is often an area of confusion for my clients. Evaluation is a continual and important part of any sponsorship. From a sponsor's perspective, a partnership should initially be evaluated against other opportunities and should consider—among many factors—the sponsor's objectives, audience, budget, geography, timing, fit with messaging, etc. Ongoing evaluation of the relationship should be done on a regular basis to ensure it continues to fit with a sponsor's objectives, budget, etc. Evaluation is generally done on the sponsor side with information provided by the property in order to properly evaluate the opportunity. more

In my previous blog post, I discussed why it would be a good thing for sponsorship buyers and sellers to be more open about what is paid for deals—specifically that it would provide the industry with guideposts to determine the relative health of properties, property segments and the overall medium. But there is a bigger reason why transparency—to the extent it doesn't divulge proprietary, competitive information—would be extremely beneficial. And this is not just the opinion of a sponsorship journalist with a need to know. I first heard this argument espoused by Stuart Schwartz, a Coca-Cola executive in the '90s who was heading up the company's early efforts at establishing a model to measure value and return on investment. Here is the argument: For sponsorship to benefit both parties, it should be an "efficient market," which is defined as a market where purchases and sales result in even exchanges of value. One of the four characteristics of an efficient market is: Price information is widely and cheaply available to buyers. The sponsorship marketplace does not have that characteristic, and thus is not efficient. more

6 (Non-3D) Movie Gimmicks from The Warped Mind of William Castle
Cinematic Listology By Ashe Cantrell on July 28, 2011 | Comments (4)Most cynical internet denizens will tell you that the resurgence of 3D is a mere gimmick, meant to drag more people to theaters and jack up ticket prices. (I am one of those cynical people.) Average movie-goers seem to be agreeing, with a resounding "I paid five bucks extra for this crap? I could have had nachos!" 3D has come and gone throughout film history, and each time we come to the same general conclusion: We kinda don't like it. Until we have some kind of full immersion films (and would they even be films at that point?) we'll probably never be satisfied. When 3D movies fell apart the first time, Hollywood just went back to doing what they had been doing before the 3D boom: Trying to make good movies. One man was not satisfied, though. William Castle, director and producer of ridiculous B-movies, had a vision. He wanted to make every single one of his films into a spectacle event (much to the annoyance of theaters that booked his movies) that drew the masses to the cinema for the experience. Here are six of his most notorious gimmicks.

Jimmy Smits is staying in the family business—the actor has joined the cast of Showtime's hit series Dexter. According to the Hollywood Reporter, Jimmy will portray Miguel Prado, a charismatic and ambitious district attorney who comes from one of Miami's most powerful and prestigious families.
Sound familiar? It should, considering Jimmy's last role was as on CBS's ill-fated drama Cane, in which he played the charismatic and ambitious scion of the Duque clan—one of Miami's most powerful and prestigious families.

James McAvoy (Wanted)
Even though we've seen him in movies before, we first stood up and took notice of this Scottish hottie last year in the Academy Award-nominated film Atonement. Ever since then, we can't get enough of James' sexy Scottish brogue or his piercing blue eyes. Luckily, we won't have to wait long to see either again—James stars opposite Angelina Jolie in this summer's Wanted.
No more pencils, no more books! Summer's officially here and we can't think of a better thing to do with all our free time than go to the movies. Film companies are trotting out their biggest-budget, highest-profile fare from May to September, so grab some popcorn and settle in for all the best action, drama, comedy and romance of the season.

Perfect for Valentine's Day and every day, True Love is filled with uplifting stories from the animal kingdom and heartwarming accounts of animal emotions, friendships, romance, sibling and parent-child love. Author Rachel Buchholz, a longtime editor with National Geographic Kids magazine, has been collecting amazing animal stories for more than a decade and has gathered her favorites to show the many kinds of love that animals share, from inseparable best friends to romantically devoted duos. Touching photographs, inspiring animal facts, and meaningful quotes about love round out the book, making it a special way to show someone the true meaning of love. Stories include:
Brother and sister bears: In Cooper Landing, Alaska, a fishing guide spotted brother and sister grizzly bears fishing in the river. The brother had an injured front paw from a gunshot wound (the same hunter had killed his mother) and couldn't catch salmon. Brother bear would charge, the fish would scatter, and he came up empty-pawed every time. The guide was worried about the cub until she saw his sister, who normally would have gone off on her own, stay by his side catching fish and dropping them at his feet. She stayed with her brother for four weeks to catch fish for him.
Lioness supermom: When a little lion cub fell halfway down a cliff, a group of lionesses didn't know what to do. At the cliff's bottom lurked hungry crocodiles, and one false move could send them and the baby tumbling down to become prey. Four lionesses try and give up: the cliff is too treacherous for them. But the lion's mother climbs down the sheer cliff face, scoops him up in her mouth, and crawls up the cliff side to safety.
Bear the bobcat and Robi the caracal: In Sherwood, Oregon, Bear the bobcat was blind, grumpy, and friendless. He didn't get along with any of the other captive cats at his sanctuary. His keepers were worried about him until Robi the caracal moved into the enclosure next door. The bobcat perked up and started rubbing against the fence of his new neighbor. When the two were introduced to each other, Bear affectionately head-butted Robi and they became best friends forever. Now Robi serves as Bear's "guide cat."
Jake and Jemima, ducks in love: In North Devon, England, Jake the Muscovy duck waddled for weeks to return to his sweetheart, Jemima. Their owner had given Jake to a friend eight miles away. But Jake overcame three snowstorms and animal threats to return to Jemima. Muscovy ducks can't fly very high-only a few feet-and he had to find his way around four-foot-high hedges and fences to get back to his girl. When he found Jemima again, his owner saw the two ducks cuddle up "like an old married couple."

Rachel Buchholz is the executive editor of National Geographic Kids and National Geographic Little Kids magazines in Washington, D.C. In her more than 15 years editing for the tween market she has learned that dogs love to skateboard, that ghosts live in the White House, that a stack of currency one mile high contains more than 14 million bills, and that if you're in doubt, run a story about Harry Potter. Buchholz has helped the magazine's 1.1 million readers set five Guinness World Records, and in the process of collecting large amounts of stuff has talked Cameron Diaz out of her sneakers (Longest Chain of Shoes) and Ben Stiller out of his jeans (Largest Collection of Clothes to Recycle). She is the author of the Children's Choice-nominated book How to Survive Anything: Shark Attack, Lightning, Embarrassing Parents, Pop Quizzes, and Other Perilous Situations and a former editor at Boys' Life magazine in Dallas. Although she will tell you that she's originally from Texas, documents reveal that Buchholz actually grew up in Oklahoma.
Friends Forever
When Tarra the elephant and Bella the dog met at the Elephant Sanctuary in Tennessee, they quickly formed a close friendship. Bella trusted the 8,700-pound elephant so much that she let Tarra rub her belly with her trunk. When Bella fell ill, caretakers carried Bella outside so the two animals could be in contact with each other. "Bella and Tarra gave each other unconditional love 24/7," says sanctuary cofounder Carol Buckley. But later, tragedy struck: Bella was found dead, presumably killed by coyotes. Strangely, no evidence of an attack—tufts of hair, bloodstained grass was found near her body. Keepers did, however, find blood on the underside of Tarra's trunk as if she had carried her friend home from the fatal encounter. No one knows for sure if this really happened, but one thing is true: Tarra honored her best friend till the end.
Her Brother's Keeper
When Stacy Corbin, a fishing guide in Alaska, observed a young male grizzly bear trying to catch salmon, he was worried. Grizzlies probe river bottoms with their front feet until they feel a fish, pin it down, and grab it with their teeth. But a hunter had killed this bear's mother and shot her cub in the foreleg, and the young grizzly was left nearly helpless. Because of his injury, he was only scattering the salmon. Without help, the grizzly would die. But then Corbin saw the bear's sister snag six salmon and drop them at his feet. "She fed him for weeks," Corbin says. "He wouldn't have made it without her." Normally a female bear her age would've gone off on her own, but she chose to stay by her brother's side and help him eat until he was strong enough to feed himself.
A Rockin' Dad
Some parents will do anything to have a child. This flamingo was so dedicated to becoming a dad that he tried to hatch a rock. Male and female flamingo pairs, which usually mate for life and raise chicks together, take turns warming their eggs until they hatch. But Andy, a flamingo that lives at the Wild-fowl and Wetlands Trust in England, sat on an egg- shaped stone. Nigel Jarrett, head of conservation breeding at the wetlands, thinks that the real egg was knocked from the nest into the water. Then the bird may have mistaken an egg-shaped stone buried in his nest for the egg. "When he saw it, he probably did what any other expectant daddy flamingo would do he sat on it!" Jarrett says. The flamingo stayed with his adopted egg for two days until he caught on. His egg may have been fake, but Andy's devotion was definitely real.
