May Day...
My first week of work was busy, really great, but really busy - and next week looks set to be busier still. There are so many names to remember, so many faces to remember and so much to set up in order for the place to start running smoothly by next week. At least I'm not bored, nothing is worse than staring at a clock that won't go fast enough.
My normal bus ride into the city usually takes around 10minutes, now my bus ride in the freak morning traffic takes half an hour. I have to leave my house at 7.30am in order to get into work at 8.30am - and while some people might think that's a perfectly normal time to leave in the morning, I am not one of them!
I leave work at 5pm, just as its getting dark, and usually get home just after 6pm. I have really been enjoying my walks home from the bus stop at night. The mornings have been freezing cold, but the evenings have been beautiful and temperate. Plus I can see the city when I walk home, all lit up and sparkly in the balmy night.
I also get to indulge in one of my favourite secret (now not so secret) activities - peeking into peoples houses when their lights are on but the curtains aren't shut. I don't exactly walk right up to the window and gawk inside, I just slow down and peek in as I walk past. I love seeing other peoples houses and how they have chosen to decorate their spaces. There is one particular tree lined street rather close to us that I just LOVE walking down and peeking into - think, white walls filled with art, bookcases filled with interesting objects and rooms lit in glowing orange light...
David and I don't own a car here and aren't planning on getting one soon either, so we walk everywhere or use public transport. Today we had to pop out to buy groceries (no chocolate anywhere in the house) and so I threw on some jeans and my lovely hand made vintage wool cape.
This park is a lovely little dog park that we walk through to get to the super market. Its usually filled with dogs playing, but today was rather quiet for some reason... But look, a glimpse of autumn on the ground. Who would have thought?

What a lovely cape! I like the little hand holes. I have a poncho that I quite like but I don't really wear it too much because I feel like my arms are trapped!
Are they the Sportsgirl brogues? I just bought them today :-)

You're a House Peeker too? I have the most awful habit of doing that when I drive into work with my husband early in the morning (on days we swap the car). It's usually still dark, but I love seeing the decor and such of some of the ritzy houses we have to drive past! hehe!

CMB seniors sign with Grand View
After competing together on the course and the track for the past few years, Collins-Maxwell-Baxter seniors Ashley Girard and Hayley Leonard will be doing so at the college level as well.
Both runners signed with Grand View University this month, with Girard making it official a few weeks ago and Leonard signing on Wednesday.
Although she suffered an injury during cross country this season, Girard has been a multi-sport athlete for the Raiders for years. Some of her accolades include two appearances at the state track meet in the 4x400-meter relay.

"It was just blazing," said Mary Thompkins of 1226 Old Coal City Road, Pell City. "The truck was just blazing."
Flames shot up 10 feet in the air and the cloud of white smoke was so thick Thompkins couldn't see inside the cab of the truck.
"It scared me to death," she said. "I was worried about the driver of the truck. With so much smoke and fire, I couldn't see anybody."
Thompkins called 911 and emergency workers responded to her call.
Both Wattsville and Riverside volunteer fire departments responded to the fire, which was just north of the Pleasant Valley Quick Stop.
Veolia Environmental Services driver Jerry Higginbotham escaped unharmed from the garbage truck.
Fortunately, Higginbotham frequently looks in the rearview mirror of the truck.
"I saw smoke," Higginbotham said. "I turned around, and it was flaming."
The engine that caught fire was behind the truck's cab.
"I jumped out of my truck," Higginbotham said. "I thought it was going to blow."
Authorities said the emergency call was received at about 11:14 a.m. Wednesday.
Old Coal City Road was temporarily closed as firefighters fought the blaze and wreckers worked to remove the large green garbage truck.
Old Coal City Road was closed for more than one hour, but nobody was hurt in the fire.
Higginbotham said he thought the engine fire was electrical.

If Luana Sanchez wasn't working at the Naval Postgraduate School this summer, she says she'd probably be baby-sitting. Instead, the 16-year-old from Castroville is helping to design three-dimensional human holograms for military training.
Sanchez is one of 28 students participating in the eight-week NPS program "Community College Catalyst," which is run in conjunction with Hartnell College. The students, most of whom study at Hartnell, are hired to assist NPS faculty on a variety of projects involving "STEM" — science, technology, engineering and math.
Students began their paid internships on June 11, having completed a semester of once-a-week preparation at Hartnell. Among them is Stephen Olivarez, 21, who is working on mathematical computations for satellites.
"Ever since I was 4 years old it's been my dream to work for NASA," said Olivarez, who recently transferred from Hartnell to study mechanical engineering at California State Polytechnic University, Pomona. "Now, it's so exciting to be working for former astronaut Jim Newman."
The Hartnell-based program is coordinated in large part by Alison Kerr, operations manager of the Cebrowski Institute at NPS. In addition to the participants from Hartnell, there are close to 100 other interns working at NPS this summer.
Community College Catalyst students work 8a.m. to 5p.m. for five days each week, which earns them $3,800 — about $11.75 per hour. Funding comes from a variety of public and private sources and includes grants from the U.S. Department of Education that are available to institutions educating racial minorities in STEM disciplines. The NPS internship, however, is available to students of all backgrounds.
"There's no pressure that at night after my internship I have to go to work because I get paid for working at NPS," explained Claudia Garcia, 21, a third-year computer science major at Hartnell. "Instead of having an overload of responsibilities this summer, I can be comfortable knowing that this is helping me earn money for tuition."
Garcia is among three young women who are helping with the construction of an emergency operations center, which would transmit vital information to responders in the event of a natural disaster. The project was assigned by the U.S. Department of Homeland Security.
"I can teach you all day long," said NPS lecturer Buddy Barrato, who oversees the girls' work on the project. "But if you don't get your hands dirty and if all you see is pictures, you're not going to be as useful. I immerse them in as much technology as possible so that they can develop a skill set going forward."
The number of American students studying STEM subjects has declined across the country in recent decades. In response, greater emphasis and government dollars have been given toward encouraging students to explore these fields.
Students in the Hartnell internship who lack Social Security numbers — there are four such students this summer — cannot receive compensation from federal funds. Their paychecks are covered by private donations to Hartnell.
"Hartnell has a remarkable STEM program, and students come out of there ridiculously prepared," said Craig Martell, an associate professor of computer science at NPS and one of the first involved with Community College Catalyst. Martell recalls being impressed by questions from visiting Hartnell students at one of his lectures, which motivated him to offer a few summer internships.
"The first year there were students from MIT interning as well," Martell explained, "and I found that Hartnell students were at least as good mathematically." These students' performance inspired the current program, which is now in its fifth year.
Although the internships provide an educational opportunity for students, Andy Newton, director of the Science & Math Institute at Hartnell and a coordinator of the NPS program, noted, "The professors aren't there to baby-sit." He explained, "Our students have to be assets to the work that gets done in the lab, and they have to be able to contribute to the research."
Although most of the Hartnell interns have grown up locally, many had never previously set foot on the NPS campus. Those first few days on the job can be intimidating.
"It seems like such a serious place," said Casi Martin, a 20-year-old who is transferring to CSUMB after three years at Hartnell. "I remember driving up to the gates on my first day, seeing the guards with guns and thinking that it would be impossible to have fun here. But after a while you realize how friendly people are."
Many Hartnell students have been mentored by computer science professor Joe Welch. Welch, a former engineer in the Navy, encourages students to utilize the academic opportunities at NPS.
"It doesn't really matter to this process that NPS has any association with the military," Welch said. "We don't want the students to feel like they are being recruited. But the graduate students at NPS are amazing. They're a national resource."
Since Community College Catalyst was established, close to 20 former interns have been hired as civilian employees by NPS. Luciano Cerritos, 27, now works as a NPS research assistant in addition to studying engineering at Sacramento State.
"After working with computers here as an intern, I said to myself, 'I can't believe I'm getting paid to do this,'" Cerritos recalled. "That experience made me change my area of concentration in school."
Welch summed up the experience, saying, "Work hard at your internship, ask questions, and you see that these students have a totally different perspective about the world, and it shows when they go back to school."

Not in the sense of "Bluetooth". To just block out sound you don't have to have the cord attached. But if you want to listen to music, you must attach the cord first.

No, they aren't wireless. The Bose QCs use a cable to plug into an iPad, iPhone etc.
I've had two pairs of the Bose QC headphones as new models have appeared over the last few years. I travel a lot and they are superb for flying. You can actually sit and really enjoy a movie at 30,000'.
Sound quality is excellent as is the build quality. One minor quibble, I have spent a fair amount of time in tropical countries and the material used for the ear covers tends to break down over time in that type of climate. They are replaceable though for around £20 a pair and this is easy to do.- Answered by Tim G from Stockport

Just one hour from Philadelphia but on a peaceful and secluded 19th-century farm, Glasbern is the perfect place for a romantic getaway. This BedandBreakfast.com Diamond Collection member features an on-site spa and a farm-to-table restaurant.
Owner Al Granger kindly took the time to answer these questions for us about what makes his B&B and farm unique, why travelers should stay at B&Bs, and much more.
1. What do you enjoy most about being an innkeeper?I enjoy the satisfaction of watching our guests enjoy a lodging and dining experience that is very different from most B&Bs and hotels. Because we are also a sustainable farm, things are peaceful and slow-paced here. By sustainable, we mean that we do not use any hormones, antibiotics, herbicides, or pesticides, and we practice rotational grazing.
2. How long have you been an innkeeper?For 26 years.
3. What was your inspiration for your creating your inn? Glasbern was created as an alternative lodging experience for the business traveler. We have always done our best to provide hotel conveniences in an upscale yet informal environment.
4. Why did you choose this inn and this city?I wanted to live in the country, but still be close enough to businesses to have a market. At the beginning, Glasbern was just a rundown farm--things have come a long way.
5. What sets your B&B apart from others?We're a destination for both dining and lodging because we raise a large percentage of our food on Glasbern's farm. Whether it is breakfast, lunch, or dinner, our guests will find plenty of choices on the menu straight from the farm. We raise Scottish Highland cattle, Katahdin sheep, Berkshire pigs, chickens, laying hens, and organically-grown year-round greenhouses.
6. Why do you think travelers should choose B&Bs over hotels?If a traveler is looking for experiences that are unique--whether it be for personal treatment, great food, relaxation, comfort, history, or another reason--B&Bs provide that.
7. Does your B&B have any special history?It is a renovated 19th-century farm, with the farm buildings converted into upscale accommodations. Our restaurant and a number of guest rooms are in the original barn, with towering fieldstone walls, 28-foot timbered ceiling, and 150 year-old posts and ladders.
8. What makes your town worth visiting—are there any interesting local attractions or activities?We are very near to trails and viewpoints of Hawk Mountain Sanctuary, local Lehigh Valley wineries, and antiquing on the backroads to our west that lead into the Pennsylvania Dutch country. There is also unique and historic downtown shopping in nearby Emmaus and Bethlehem, and numerous covered bridges and local parks.
9. Do you have any food specialties (for breakfast or otherwise)?Glasbern's full country breakfast features our farm eggs, house sausages, homemade granola, and too much more to list here. Our signature lunch sandwich is the Piggie Panini, featuring our own Berkshire pork and dinosaur kale, plus aged provolone and cranberry. Glasbern's dinner menus change almost daily--right now our farm-raised lamb shanks braised sous vide for 24 hours are a guest favorite.
10. Do you have any special offers coming up?We have a "Love is Blind" special for Valentine's Day to help you surprise your special someone with a romantic getaway. We will mail you a blindfold to whisk them away. When you remove the mask at check-in, you're entered to win one of a few gift certificates, and then in your room is a complimentary bottle of champagne. Just ask for the special when you make your reservation.

Laguiole quality :
Made the old, all our blades are fine millstone sharpened by a qualified cutler. The quality of the steel, the triangular grinding and the polishing will make it easier for you to keep your knives sharp and ensure that they continue to cut true.
The springs and blades are put in a kiln heated to over 1,000°, before being rapidly cooled. Depending on the part (spring, blade, etc.) and its makeup (carbon steel, stainless steel), the tempering varies (temperature, oil / water / air, etc.).
The tempered parts (here the springs) are plunged into an oil bath in order to give them strength and flexibility. The blades are then "marbled/billées", controlling the hardness expressed on the Rockwell scale (HRC).
Our Swedish 12C27 Sandvik stainless steel blades have a hardness of 56 HRC.
All our springs are forged and chased ("guilloched") with a file in a vice. They all have a blade-stop.
All the bees are filed twice: before assembly and before the quality control stage.
All our blades are very carefully ground and polished twice with buffalo hide by professionals: this guarantees outstanding quality and a fine cutting edge for you.

Do you understand what you are implying. The US pushed a button a caused an earthquake in Haiti. For oil. Do you realize that if the US knows how to cause earthquakes ala Lex Luthor style, that that means other govt's would be able to figure out how to do it too? Do you realize what kinds of wars we would have then? As I already posted, and you conveniently ignored, there are millions of earthquakes a year. Some you can feel, others you can't. How are we to determine which are real and which are man-made?

The US has developed the MOST FEARSOME WEAPON IN THE WORLD, and we use on Haiti, which has no military.
cracker please!

"What you hear you forget, what you see you remember, What you do you understand"
As for the charges against me, I am unconcerned. I am beyond their timid lying morality, and so I am beyond caring.
We sure have a live one with Rodney Dangerfield here.
I do too. That has nothing to do with man-made earthquakes. Are you seriously believing that we made an earthquake in Haiti for oil? And if we can make an earthquake, how long before another country learns how to do the same? Do you realize how dangerous a weapon an earthquake-maker could be?
http://killtown.blogspot.com/2007/05/why-they-didnt-use-planes- to-hit-wtc.html
"What you hear you forget, what you see you remember, What you do you understand"
Fact is that believing in such conspiracies (and I will take off some 9-11ers from it) elevates the reality of these people.
The mistery, the unknown, the unimaginable, the plot, it's the new Holy Grail for this century!
What I really enjoy is the madness that makes them unable to be concerned or touched by pure logic.
They will prefer to connect various bits of various sources of various interest and various credibility as well to create their explanation of the unknown. They don't even have faith to just let go their detractors.
And what makes me think all the times that they would be better playing tambourine on their balls, is that they are playing the enlightned ones, they see through the fog of the mainstream reality.
They are the real Illuminatis!
But it always makes my day, too bad that this time the Haiti disaster is the "decor" of their fantasy.
You might need a Flux Capacitor to make the EarthQuake..
I'm not "implying" anything...
I posted a news report that said Chavez claims that the U.S. used an environmental weapon on Haiti...
I then provided the actual U.N. document that calls for the PROHIBITION OF MILITARY OR ANY HOSTILE USE OF ENVIRONMENTAL MODIFICATION TECHNIQUES...THROUGH THE DELIBERATE MANIPULATION OF NATURAL PROCESSES... with the result being PHENOMENA including EARTHQUAKES AND TSUNAMIS...
yes, I fully realize that there are "millions of earthquakes a year"...but I can read and rationalize through the power of logic...
I will provide the direct link YET AGAIN...as to not leave any room to doubt...
they are stating in black and white that the "natural process"(ie. earthquakes and tsunamis) can be "deliberately manipulated"...THROUGH THE DELIBERATE MANIPULATION OF NATURAL PROCESSES
who's trying to ignore things here...
you need to read the document instead of posting stuff from the U.S.G.S. that has no bearing on the validity of the U.N. treaty...
So are you admitting that the U.N.(through) the specific language of this document, attempted to use "prevent" environmental modification techniques from being used to cause "widespread, long-lasting or severe destruction, damage or injury" by way of "earthquakes & tsunamis"???
"weather process on the ground"....You still haven't provided evidence that weather process in the ground.
We would be happy to read that.
You just confirmed that this SPECIFIC U.N. document is a "preventive" measure..and the SPECIFIC language states that the negative use of "environmental modification techniques" can be used to cause "earthquakes & tsunamis"....
How is it possible to admit that this document has a purpose, yet attempt to feign ignorance and pretend that there is no SPECIFIC purpose...even though it is written in black and white???
is this the best you can do....I give you an ovation...But please continue, and don't forget to volunteer for the UN, since you're so aware of the global situation. They need to chill out sometimes.
Much like every other conspiracy thread you have posted here, it all comes down to very finely manipulated versions of reality and interpretations of old documents.
The documents referred to are from 1976, during which time certain governments were experimenting with cloud seeding technology. \
The documents you keep quoting as the basis for your assumptions does not state there ARE weapons that can create earthquakes. What it says is that it acknowledges that there is no way to know what could be created in the future, and as a precursor to that, a treaty has been put forth indicating that no government will seak to use environmental weaponry.... environmental weaponry being defined as things that COULD CAUSE such phenomenon as earthquakes, tsunamis, clouds, rain et al.
Basically, in 1976 someone said "they're trying to create man-made rain, if they can do this, lord knows what they'll be able to do in 2050, and more importantly, what kind of calamity they will cause to this planet trying to test out weaponry of this type so lets go ahead and nip this in the bud right now and put a treaty together saying they won't try to create these kinds of things.
Now, I know this won't change your minds, because... well... it just won't, but even in the documents you quote, there's no proof of some sort of earthquake maker or weaponry. It's a UN treaty saying no one should ever try to create one...
but go'n with your leaps of logic. I still stand by my theory that this kinda shit is what happens when people are fed too many episodes of Perry Mason, Twilight Zone and CSI, mufuckers living real life trying to blurt out the plot twist before anyone else.

the treaty also mentions that states and INTERNATIONAL ORGANIZATIONS can use these "environmental modification techniques" for PEACEFUL and ECONOMIC purposes to better utilize the NEEDS OF THE DEVELOPING AREAS OF THE WORLD...
1. The provisions of this Convention shall not hinder the use of environmental modification techniques for peaceful purposes and shall be without prejudice to the generally recognized principles and applicable rules of international law concerning such use.
2. The States Parties to this Convention undertake to facilitate, and have the right to participate in, the fullest possible exchange of scientific and technological information on the use of environmental modification techniques for peaceful purposes. States Parties in a position to do so shall contribute, alone or together with other States or international organizations, to international economic and scientific co-operation in the preservation, improvement and peaceful utilization of the environment, with due consideration for the needs of the developing areas of the world.
now you know how far down the rabbit hole goes....Understanding relating to article III
It is the understanding of the Committee that this Convention does not deal with the question whether or not a given use of environmental modification techniques for peaceful purposes is in accordance with generally recognized principles and applicable rules of international law.

Remind me to unfriend Debe Terhar on Facebook. In Tuesday's Dispatch article "Official defends Hitler post," she endorsed a post saying, "To conquer a nation, first disarm its citizens," and attributing the quote to Adolf Hitler.
Of the many problematic issues with the post, the most egregious is that there is no documentation that Hitler ever uttered or wrote those words. Even pro-gun websites acknowledge that "this quotation, however effective it may be as propaganda, is a fraud."
Perhaps the bigger fraud is having a president of the state Board of Education who is so poorly informed.

Queers Against Israeli Apartheid to return to Toronto Pride parade this year (TORONTO STAR) Daniel Dale 05/15/12)
Source: http://www.thestar.com/news/cityhallpolitics/article/1178891--queers-against-israeli-apartheid-to-return-to-toronto-pride-parade-this-year
TORONTO STAR Articles-Index-Top
The activist group Queers Against Israeli Apartheid plans to return to the Pride parade this summer, raising the possibility of another battle over whether to provide city money to the major gay festival.
The group, also known as QuAIA, skipped Pride last year to deny Mayor Rob Ford what it called a pretext to withdraw the citys grant.
We decided we didnt want to be the scapegoat for Pride not getting funding from the city. But this year, we feel, well, its time to go back, QuAIA member Tony Souza said Tuesday. We are a queer group in the city. It so happens that the issue were talking about is controversial, but that doesnt mean that the work that we do, which is basically for justice for people, should not be celebrated.
City officials have recommended that council give Pride $123,807. That would amount to about 8 per cent of the festivals $1.6 million budget, co-chair Francisco Alvarez said.
The Pride festival, to be held June 22 to July 1, will publish a list of groups in early June that have registered to participate. If a resident then submits a complaint about QuAIA to the festivals dispute resolution body, as is likely, a panel of legal experts will render a final decision on whether it can march.
In 2010, council asked city manager Joe Pennachetti to decide whether QuAIA contravenes the citys anti-discrimination policy. He concluded that it does not, saying there is no legal precedent to suggest the phase Israeli apartheid constitutes a hate crime or a violation of the provincial human rights code.
But Canadas major Jewish groups consider the implicit comparison of Israel to apartheid South Africa both odious and inaccurate.
The funding decision is the citys itself, said Howard English, senior vice-president of the Centre for Israel and Jewish Affairs. None of us here at CIJA are members of council. We dont have a vote. But we certainly hope that in making its decision, council keeps in mind the hateful nature of QuAIAs messaging and the extent to which its divorced from the reality of public opinion among the people of Toronto.
In March 2011, Ford told the Canadian Jewish News that taxpayer dollars should not go toward funding hate speech. His spokesperson did not respond to a request for comment on Tuesday.
Council voted in June 2011 to have the city revise the anti- discrimination policy, but no changes have been brought forward to date. Souza said Pennachettis conclusion that QuAIA satisfies the existing policy should prevent council from denying funding to Pride on the basis of the groups participation.
They cant do that. Because the city managers report is very clear that we are not a hate group. You cannot discriminate against us on the basis of what we do, he said.
James Pasternak, who is Jewish and one of QuAIAs most vocal critics on city council, spoke more cautiously on Tuesday than he did last year.
We would hope that Pride says no to bullying and demonization and yes to respect and tolerance, he said. But he would not commit to asking council to withhold the funding if QuAIA is allowed to march. (© Copyright Toronto Star 1996-2012 05/15/12)

By Rodger Mullen Staff writer
PEMBROKE - Candace Langston is looking forward to experiencing the feeling of zero gravity, although she acknowledges a little apprehension.
Langston is one of four students at the University of North Carolina at Pembroke who will experience weightless conditions aboard a NASA plane later this spring. They're members of the Weightless Lumbees, a UNCP club that designs experiments to test how gravitational force affects the human body.
"I have a little bit of a weak stomach," said Langston, 20, a sports and exercise science major. "So I'm not sure what being on a 10,000-foot roller coaster, especially for two hours, is going to be like."
NASA selected the UNCP team to participate in the agency's Reduced Gravity Education Flight Program May 31 to June 8 at Johnson Space Center in Houston. The UNCP team, which also includes Tiffany Scott, Molly Musselwhite and Alejandra Uribe Mitchell, was one of 14 undergraduate student teams selected.
Robeson Community College worked on the experiments, as well, although no students from the community college will be going up in the plane.
Jamie Semple is a NASA education specialist and Reduced Gravity Education Flight Program coordinator. Semple said the teams were selected from about 70 who applied.
"It's a lengthy process of safety reviews, technical and outreach reviews," Semple said. "You have to evaluate each on its merits."
Semple said one of the important factors is whether the team will use its NASA experience to educate the public about science.
The teams will perform experiments aboard a 727 plane that will leave Ellington Field and soar to more than 34,000 feet altitude, then quickly plummet nearly 10,000 feet. The maneuver is repeated several times in the flight that lasts one hour and 40 minutes.
The "free fall" effect creates zero gravity conditions for short periods of time, during which the teams will perform their experiments.
Obviously, the conditions can have an unsettling effect on the passengers. The plane has been nicknamed the "vomit comet."
"There's usually at least one that will get sick," said Tim Ritter, a UNCP physics professor and adviser to the Weightless Lumbees. "Usually, if you get sick, they'll sit you down or lay you down. Some students, they get sick and just keep on working."
The Weightless Lumbees was formed in 2002 in partnership with students at the University of North Carolina at Charlotte. Its name came about because the original members were all members of the Lumbee tribe.
Students, who come from many different majors, can earn up to three college credits for their work with the club.
Before this year, the team had been selected for the NASA program six times, most recently in 2009.
This year's group will perform two experiments on the plane.
One will test how zero gravity conditions affect the process by which lactate produced by muscles moves to the liver and is converted to glucose, which then returns to the muscles and is converted back to lactate. The process is called the "Cori cycle" after its discoverers, Carl and Gerty Cori.
The second experiment is what Ritter calls a "gee whiz" experiment. The students will simply burst a water balloon and see how the water retains the shape of the balloon in near-zero gravity.
The experiments will be videotaped. Ritter said the group will visit area schools and museums to show the video, demonstrate their work and create interest in science.
The students also will get tours of NASA facilities during their week-long trip.
It will cost about $10,000 for the team to go to Houston. Ritter said the money was raised through grants and the university.
The Weightless Lumbee members learned they had been accepted into the program in December. Since then, they have been getting ready for their wild ride.
Scott, 24, is a chemistry senior at UNCP. She said the NASA flight will fulfill a long-held dream of hers.
"As a kid, I was always fascinated with space," she said. "I always wondered what it would be like to be in zero gravity, to free-float."
Scott wants to go to pharmacy school and would like to open a pharmacy in her native Robeson County. She said she's not really worried about any ill effects of weightlessness.
"I think I'll be OK," she said. "I'm not one to easily get sick."
Langston, who graduated from Liberty Christian Academy in Fayetteville in 2010, said she and the other Weightless Lumbees members have been busy working on and preparing their experiments.
Of course, completing them in a near-zero gravity environment rather than a university lab will be a whole different matter.
"Sometimes I think it's better not to think about it," Langston said. "Just get up there and take it for what it's worth."

This route is not on [Twin Owls]. It lies on [Gollum's] Rock which is directly east of Twin Owls. This is a smaller cliff about one hundred feet high. Approach as though going to Hen and Chickens Rock and when next to that cliff look east 100 yards to find an hundred foot left-arching, aesthetic crack, this is the route. This is a great one pitch crack climb that begins with a 5.9 fist crack through a bulge then widens considerably for thirty feet. This section doesn't require any offwidth technique as there are [decent] face holds around. After the wide section, the crack narrows down through all the sizes to fingers at the end. At the end, either traverse left to a belay, or continue over a poorly protected 5.9 roof. This is a very sustained pitch with no single crux. It is given .10a in most guides, but feels [definitely] harder.
This crack goes through several sizes, bring a couple #3 Camalots, and at least two #4 Camalots to supplement a standard rack.
I don't think I'd upgrade this route. 10- seemed about right for me. Lots of face holds on the lower part. I thought the crux was where the face holds run out and you have a few wider (very deep hand jams) moves before you can start working the stem. I thought the roof protected fine - save a hand sized pieces and a 2 foot runner for the horizontal crack under it. I exited right and it was really only one move of 9.
It's a crack dudes, jam it! Still 5.10- in my book. Bring plenty of big stuff,and you can get enought pro at the 5.8 exit roof to lower off a Cadillac. S.Kimball.
Well, climbed it and loved it except for the fact I only took doubles in the big hands. Here is what you will need to place gear every 6-12 feet. (2/3)#4, 4#3, 2#2, 1#1, 1#.75 Camalots. Be sure to save one #3 for the roof. Placed some smaller Aliens before the traversing out on the face to attack the roof, which looked intimidation but turns out to be a pussy cat.
10 b/c? I don't think so. I did this route in 1987, and I found it to be 5.9+. The roof and lack of protection at it are over-rated. Don't get me wrong, it's a nice route, but no where near as hard as the author is rating it here.
Ratings are a mysterious thing. I did this route earlier this year and flailed at the crux, hanging, [grovelling] and finally lowering. The same summer I waltzed up the Nose on Sundance, Xanadu and another 10 at Eldo last weekend. If the climb is not hard 10 as described here, I just didn't get it.
So what Renny, I did this in '76, and I think the grade holds through. An excellent route and don't be afraid of the roof. If you can make it that far, you've got the guns to pull it no problem (I thought the roof was 5.8). Enjoy !
Old fart, my criticism is of the 10b/c rating given by the author, and his assessment of the difficulties and protection at the roof. Now we all know ratings are subjective. Look at it this way. This route is 10b/c, and Crack of Fear is rated 10d? No way. Both these routes are mis-rated. When you did this route in '76 you climbed it without active camming devices. Hanging around that much longer to get good pro, yes, I'd call it 10a then. As I said before, it's a nice route. I'm not trying to belittle it.
Perhaps I am a wuss or a terrible offwidth climber, but I got on this route expecting 10a, and it felt harder. I definitely would not recommend a new 10a leader get on it.
Lizzy, I totally agree. Douglas and I went out to do this...fat...slimy..and awkward for me. I would not recommend as an "moderate" climb for anyone who has smaller hands. Either that or my technique is just piss poor! Scottie, it's only cause you've climbed it a billion times...it reminds me of your Jamesia Jam. HARD!
The roof move (5.8) is easily protected by a #2, #3, #3.5, hell, make an anchor below it, then pull it. You already did the hard stuff. I could see this being argued to be 5.9+, but you old guys have way better crack technique than us youngins. 5.10- is appropriate.
This climb is like a super hot valley girl-- it has outer beauty, but inner beauty is arguable. The guide says 'it's a nice line' which is like saying your girlfriend is hot, but....
I've climbed this route at least five times. It's fantastic!
5-6 cams around a #4 FR to #4 C4 would not go unplaced on the first half of the route. I am guessing that #3 Camalots could be placed nearby with some effort. There are currently some slings at the top. A single 70m rope will get you down to an easy downclimb.
Any use for a #5 or #6 C4? I'm coming out the beginning of next month, and we plan on doing this route. Probably won't do anything else wide, so I'm not going to bring them if I don't need them. I'm not super confident at the grade, only other off-width I've done is Huston Crack in Boulder Canyon.
There is no need for the #5/6 C4. A few #4s would be handy though.
I just read that Bachar solo'd this, wow! That guy was amazing, RIP

So let's talk more about the Middle East will we finally see president cycle quietly.
Releasing peace in 2013.
In Syria that could be Christmas wish her a lot of people let's look ahead to the future of the Middle East next year.
With best Wally Ferris Fox News Middle East terrorism analyst -- -- I'm glad you're here is you know this better than anyone.
Let's actually -- start with Egypt's you have president -- he just completes its his constitutional referendum and you say he's basically creating a took terra yet.
-- carry and -- Islamic state is that true.
What basically we see a lot of elections in Egypt I mean -- four election -- and a referendum one would tend to think what that's democracy movement forward.
But we saw in Germany and -- in the thirties that the election alone without acting as a democratic president.
I'm I'm going to be sufficient what's happening now in Egypt is despite the thought of a dictator.
What's happening is that and new authoritarian regime is being established by president more see evidence half of these people more.
Most of civil society judges journalists women.
Minorities workers are -- opposing more so because he's establishing -- almost been brotherhood.
Regime and opposing the other political bodies so it doesn't look like in 2015.
We're gonna see in more democratic Egypt -- the one that existed before.
What could pull its and then of everything they did it you know which seems like moons ago but it was lot last year.
They overthrow the government the people overthrow -- they want democracy.
And there are no more closer to it -- that.
Whether people want democracy but those who are leading the people want their own political party look at the French revolution did not end up with a democratic.
Republic after you know the first revolution day it took missed several one's debt to settle down so -- might actually see more revolution are more revolt in Egypt and is what you're saying in 2013.
In 2015 we -- -- -- see more -- against the Muslim Brotherhood and sell off the Islamist regime if you want -- gonna -- 888 clash between brotherhood trying to assert their power on the one hand.
And set of society's secular democratic movement -- do.
Dislodged OK so let's -- quickly what do these other countries Syria do you think.
That they will put in a transitional government for -- -- -- -- -- -- Look what -- is gonna happen between now and half -- 23 theme that I take months by months here.
Any cease fire signed today and we don't see that would need two to three months to stabilize the country.
The rebels be militia -- I'm not up for any agreement that would include mr.
asset is very afraid of any agreement he would do with the rebels you know the end of the -- they gonna take -- out so unfortunate that the horizon is now at least the next.
Three to four months we don't see any agreement happening in Syria unless Russia and the United States will want to enforce that agreement.
Which yet so I -- whether we get involved as a whole this whole another show that's -- about direct and and weakening the regime are sanctions that really almost Sundays are comical aren't bad.
But look for 3040 years we have been putting those sanctions and claiming it is working.
What's happening is that the sanctions are working but not working on the Iraqi regime like they're working on the people on the Iranian people yes of course they are.
Under a lot of dressed.
What's happening now is that the Iran and regime is taken advantage of our incomplete sanctions to spread outside Iran.
They are penetrating Iraq that a lot of influence in Iraq.
By the -- because Syria that a bridge to Syria supporting the Assad's regime abridged what Lebanon with Hezbollah and -- destabilizing the average dividends and Iran is doing a lot of expansion what you are looking at those things and maybe buy miracle that would war.
-- he -- you're so terrific and my final question she was gonna be isn't really gonna be safer in 2013.
We've clearly answered.
Nowhere close -- our you gotta come back we gotta keep talking about the stuff.
He's not be happy thank you -- happy new year.

Story Theater for kids and the kid in you
Monday, September 21st, 2009Looking for a fun thing to do with your kids and grandkids? Take them to Story Theatre, a show built around some of the Grimm's Brothers tales and Aesop's fables, created by Paul Sills, founder of the Second City Improv Group in Chicago.
Each year The School of Theatre Arts', program etc… (educational theatre company) presents a play for children in the fall. This entirely student directed, acted & designed production performs first on campus and then tours to area schools.
According to Laura A. McCammon, faculty mentor and founder of etc…, "the director of this show, Kelena Jones, also believes in the relationship of story to community and the relationship of story to literacy skills in children. She has chosen 'Henny Penny', 'The Bremen Town Musicians', 'The Fisherman and his Wife', 'Two Crows' and 'The Golden Goose'. These stories have (been) slightly modernized."
You can catch these shows at 10:00 am and 7:00 pm on Thursday and Friday, September 24 and 25 and at 1:30 on Saturday September 26 in the Marroney Theatre, 1025 N Olive Rd, Bldg #3 on the UA campus.

Take 1 item & discuss how cooked in different cultures, like beef brisket:
1) BBQ'd in Texas for 18 hours
2) Corned beef in Ireland
3) Pot roast in Jewish deli's
4) Pastrami in Turkey
5) Chili Colorado, or taco filling, in Mexico
6) Chopped & served as corned beef hash in US breakfasts
Good luck.
East Asian beef on a quiz? A few words...
Korea, China & Vietnam don't eat much beef because of cost, less open land.
More importantly, E Asian cuisine mostly views knives as barbaric, for kitchen workers only, & so diners don't get them. Shove food in Waring blender & pour on plate. Beef? Who knows? It didn't meow...
Means steak is pre-cut, often before cooking, which renders fat fast (dry), or undercooks to leave fat in before liquifying (raw). How do you like it? Dry or raw?
'Steaks' I've eaten in E Asian restaurants are served pre-sliced, covered with an unexplained sauce, & often have much gristle & cartilage. Apparently they like to chew.
Aging or rubs? Ha ha. They also avoid dairy products, lactose intolerant, so no butter or bleu cheese melting option, & no desserts.
Whatever. They can have it.

Carly Jae Jepsen Is 'Pretty Pumped' About New Single With Owl City
First Published: June 27, 2012 3:43 PM EDT Credit: FilmMagic
LOS ANGELES, Calif. -- Carly Rae Jepsen's catchy breakout single "Call Me Maybe" has been riding high at the top of the pop charts for weeks, and now, her second single has been released – a collaboration that has Canadian singer excited about the future.
"I did a track with Owl City called 'Good Time,'" the 26-year-old told Access Hollywood's Shaun Robinson at the "Katy Perry: Part of Me" premiere in Hollywood on Tuesday. "I'm pretty pumped about that one, actually."
In addition to the success of her popular hit, Carly Rae (who was handpicked by Justin Bieber as the first artist on his Schoolboy Records label) recently hit the stage with her 18-year-old superstar mentor in Mexico.
"I'm really thrilled… I got a little taste of it last week," she said. "We were in Mexico City in front of like, 300,000 people and I went out just to sing 'Call Me Maybe' and I was pretty blown away!
"It was an intense, intense feeling to see that many people and have them like, sing the song," she added. "It was really cool."

I seem to have caught a cold of some sort. Sneezing and snotting all over the place. On t cycle of 400mg/ week.
Should I keep lifting or take a couple days off? I feel relatively okay other than the snots.
Survey says...
Not sure if its the healthiest advice but it works for me when I get alil under the weather. I use those emergencee packs and take extra immune supports twice a day. "Super Immune +" is what works for me . I go lower weight/ higher rep and try to sweat out alil light cardio afterword without getting too fatigued(4mph at 15% incline on treadmill is my thing)Plenty of fluids of course and I drink tons of green tea with raw honey all day. That's pretty much my ritual and I feel it at least helps get me thru it faster.
No Idea if this is true but a doc told me once when I asked this same question. She said that if the cold is still only in my head/neck it's ok to train. If it has proceeded into the chest, then you're too far gone and should rest. This was at an urgent care clinic so take it for what you will. Personally if its just a head cold I still go lift.
Never shall innocent blood be shed, but the blood of the wicked shall flow like a river.
i wouldnt do that. if you exercise while sick, you risk spreading the bacteria or virus to the chest and getting an infection there. then youre basicly ****ed for awhile
do you think your sickness is andro flu by chance?. id personally sit it out for a few days and see if it goes away
Unless I'm throwing up or at imminent risk of sh*tting myself I will usually lift even if I don't feel 100%. May just lower the intensity a bit
Formutech Nutrition Rep----------------
yea probably test flu. i felt like **** for a week but i still went to gym 5 times
Got M1T flu long time ago, was a gnarly couple days.
Loaded up on pseudofed, Mucinex, and bemadryl. Going to try to hit the gym after work.
I basically had the same question. I just got sick.
wk1-4 SD (30ED)
wk 5-12 Trenavar (60-90ED)
I am at week 6 of cycle. This is for sure a real cold as many other had it just prior.
Just recently breathing has become a challenge so I decreased Trenavar from 90 to 60 ED and so far have skipped two workouts. I hope to go back to normal by the end of this week, breathing dependent. I am considering getting some Bronkaid to see if I could get back on track quicker.

The Blues PhrasebookBY Kid andersenCurrently the guitarist for Rick Estrin & theNightcats, Kid Andersen has recorded andperformed with Charlie Musselwhite, ElvinBishop, and many other blues legends.Originally from Norway, Andersen is now basedin San Jose, California, with the immigrationstatus of "Alien of Extraordinary Ability." Formore information, visit rickestrin.com.
CHOPS: Beginner
THEORY: Beginner
• Learn what not to do over a turnaround. Ever.
• Create licks in the style of the three Kings.
• Understand how to relate a Norwegian limerick to developing a blues vocabulary.
Click here to hearsound clips ofthese examples.
Thank you for indulging me. You probably recognize the limerick form in these words, and you may even think you know the words "moss," "spy," "gang," "men," and "med," but I defy you to be able to relay this short tale in your own words if you don't speak the Norwegian language. (Hint: It's about a woman who enjoys drinking, fighting, and vomiting.) You get my point, I hope.
That's not to say that I think everyguitar player out there should knowevery Robert Jr. Lockwood turnaround todemand respect. I'm actually not what youwould call a blues purist myself. I person-ally draw on everything from jazz, surf, androckabilly to country, metal, and baroque.However, the blues is my mother tongueon the instrument and if I were to quoteGeorge Benson or Tony Iommi duringsome extended guitar freakout, it's morethe equivalent of me shouting out nostrovia!
(cheers) in a Russian crowd.
One of the beautiful things about this incredible art form is that with the right conviction behind it, blues can fit in just about any kind of music for two reasons: First, it's at the root of most modern Western music, and second, it's cool as hell. Just try sneaking one of these licks I'm fixin' to show you into your next Indian raga, Bach lute suite, or head-banging anthem for the glorification of the dark lord. You can't fail. Okay, enough preaching. Allow me to show you some licks and tricks you may not be hip to.
I'm going to start off at the end, as all these licks apply to the last two measures or so of a 12-bar progression, when you return to the I chord after the V and IV of the turnaround. We will call Fig. 1 "What Not to Do." Nothing reveals a blues novice more than someone who fumbles and plays square, rhythmically awkward licks that break up the groove, and most of all, over-emphasize an anticipated V chord at the very end of the progression. You've heard this a million times, which is why it has to end!
As with all my rules, there are manygood exceptions, but unless you were bornBut with these alone, you have as muchchance of making a real statement in bluesas I do writing a great limerick in Russian.To illustrate, here's one in Norwegian,which I was raised speaking, but you hope-fully weren't:
Jeg kjente ei jente fra Moss,som likte å drikke og slåss.Hun begynte å spy,hver gang dagen var nymen jeg giftet meg med 'a til tross.
Hello ladies and gentlemen, 'tis I, the Kid. In this lesson, we'll be digging deep into the extended vocabulary of blues guitar. Nothing exemplifies the phrase "a minute to learn, a lifetime to master" better than this uniquely American art form. For inspiration, look to some of the originators of this musical language to help you write your own chapter in this highly expressive style. That's how all the true greats in blues and rock made their discoveries.
To me, the blues is simultaneously as much about tradition as it is about originality. You learn the language by going back to the origins, then the more "words" and "phrases" you know in this language, the more colorful and interesting your own story will be when you tell it. You might think that knowing a blues scale and the 12-bar form, having a tube amp and an electric guitar, and arming yourself with a few blues licks is all you need to wail.

I´ve been using B952, but RAM usage is _very_ bad. On boot, 200-300 ram is used. WTF?
I have rooted, but i read that when bootloader gets unlocked, those 2g/3g reboots starts.
Please, help me.
Curious, what makes you say that?- go back to gingerbread
If you use a stock-based rom, like Lightning or Stock+ or others, you can relock the bootloader after it's installed, to avoid the reboots.
I've always found that B944 is the best version of ICS I've tried, but B952 comes seriously close to it, I'd say they're equal but I'm not so sure it could be placebo.
Curious, what makes you say that?

http://www.modaco.com/topic/361327-relock-ics-bootloader-only-for-stock-ics-roms/.... why I didn´t even thing that. How I do that? (Just to be sure: every stock-based rom. Lighting, repacks etc with locked bootloader = no reboots?)

ICS: 70-100 MB free ram

Edited by kupp, 13 April 2013 - 03:03 PM.
Funny, I always had the impression that GB was straight up better than ICS for the normal daily usage at least, but everywhere I went people had the exact opposite opinion about it. You might just be the first that I recall at least to share my viewpoint. In all honesty I never spent much time with GB and updated to ICS in a day or so after getting the G300 (my first android too) but I've been wanting to roll back to it for quite some time now, the only thing I think it's stopping me from doing it is that I enjoy the overall look of the ICS better, and simply the feeling of having latest version, even if really is worse. Dumb maybe, but hey...
If it's not too much to aks, what's the latest version of Huawei's GB? All I have is a nandroid backup of the vodafone version that came with the phone. For some reason I can't find it in the Huawei website, only the ICS install.

I understand that there were durability problems with the 1822, but I suspect these were probably due to poor production standards in some factories rather than the actualy design.

Filed in April 2003. Meaning work on this could had progressed a lot by the time it was applied for a filing at patent office(just assuming). A breakdown of the patent by someone in the know would be very appreciated.

I'm gonna agree with Viper here. Just because the patent says Multi shouldn't mean it's RSX. Besides, if it really was RSX related. There are tons of tech sites out there waiting like hungry foxes ready to pounce on this. B3D? Hexus? FiringSquad? They didn't pick the scent of this? Kinda fishy otherwise, you see.
Not really from a quick look it seems like it describes the Geometryshader in DX10 that gets its geometry from the vertex shader.Originally Posted by yoshaw

"A discrete BRDF is naturally stored in a 4D lookup table. While commercially available graphics hardware has long had 2D texture mapping capability, no hardware currently in use has the 4D texture mapping capability necessary to implement this natural representation. Even if 4D texture mapping were implemented, the tables required to hold a measured BRDF would be quite large. At four bytes per sample (single-precision floating point) and a modest sampling rate of approximately twenty samples per radian (or a parabolic parameterization of 64.times.64 samples), a BRDF requires 64 MB of memory. Since a modern graphics accelerator board has only 64 MB of total texture memory, this storage requirement is prohibitively large. Conventional texture compression algorithms can reduce the space requirement, but not by more than an order of magnitude.

I don't know if any of these patents are related to the RSX or not, but it would be very nice if at least something unique from at least one of these patents worked its way into it. Seriously, I just don't understand Sony paying NVIDIA hundreds of millions of dollars for an almost off the shelf PC part. It seems to me it would not have taken much work at all to make the few simple changes we have heard about so far. Simply taking out some ROPS, reducing the size of the bus to 128, adding some kind of adaptor for the Flexio, and a few other minor tweaks should not cost that much money.
I'm not saying that I think there is going to be a quad SLI rig inside the PS3 with a huge ammount of RAM, gigantic buses, and so fourth. But if there is *nothing* significantly new or unique in the RSX it sure seems like a waste of money on Sony's part for all that "customization" they talked about, all the money they talked about, and all the manhours spent they were bragging about.

Well, with all the documents and patents flowing around I hope at least one of them is in reference to the RSX.
I wish Nerve Damage would return with any additional information he has uncovered about the RSX.
Nerve Damage... WE NEED YOU!
Darn.... double posted... sorry... don't know how to edit them both into one... anyway...
WE need Nerve Damage. He was going to bring us more info about the RSX but then he disapeared.

What are you talking about???Originally Posted by makeitlookreal
You know I havent seen Nerve Damage for a while, cant remember last time I seen him come to think of it. Please tell me you didnt send him on some kind of 007 top secret infiltrate Sony and Nvidia Labs mission.:angelgrin
Many people on here know from his public posts he was made privy to some potentially interesting information about the RSX from one of his sources. He shared that on here and on other forums. You know, all that multicore stuff he talked about that some people found interesting and other people foamed at the mouth with rage about?
Well, if you know Nerve Damage he is always looking for new information, and that's all I can really say.
However, he is not only mission to infiltrate any company, corporation, or anything else. No one is on such a mission, because obviously even those that want more information about the RSX and PS3 respect Sony's rights and realize such nefarious activity is unscrupulus.
My PLAYSTATION 3 Entertainment System from the MASTER GURU of E-mpire OMEGA has arrived! Thank you so much for this amazing and generous gift!
Version is ground-zero for patents. He's also ground-zero for arbitrary associations though; so of course this may have nothing to do with RSX (and doesn't seem to).Originally Posted by yoshaw
But I'm just saying, don't sell him short on the patent front. Half the patents I've ever seen posted on B3D came from him as well, which is good to know if you're going to use that as a place you feel it should have showed up already.
(and if you look at the date, it just cleared today)
Respect to all those who debate their positions using facts and reason rather than rumor and passion.
I find the patents very interesting and appreciate him for sharing them with us. We don't know if they directly relate to the RSX or not, but I have a feeling Version knows more than he is telling us. Perhaps there is a very good reason why he does not say much. Just a few paragraphs of information can be ran through a computer and compared to various writings to tell who it came from. If he is in a position to know certain bits of information it's quite possible he has to stay mysterious.
Personally, if I was in a position to know something (which I am not) and wanted to share the information I would say as little as possible and find ways to drop it here and there and then quickly cover my tracks. I'm not saying this is what Version is doing, but his lack of openly communicating with us and all of these VERY timely patents he shares with us is quite interesting.
Version, regardless if your an insider trying to share important information with us or if your just an ordinary person with a knack for hunting down information thanks for sharing all of this with us. It is appreciated!

Well i'm saying comparatively speaking and there is no denying (that's why it was done after all) it gave you a massive advantage. For say a barb/monk to do act 2 inferno effectively for example it costs about 10 million. To do act 3 you need 20+ million. The fact that you yourself said the items weren't that good but they had ias which gave you incredible killing potential for a cheap item just shows how broken it was.
Put on your rage face, seriously, not everyone here is only playing Barb (or Demon Hunter) /facepalm Attack Speed was great, but you had to play with abilities that made use of it obviously (not rocket science). You list a few abilities from some classes, but they have other abilities that make use of it. I'm using IAS on my Barb Post Patch and kicking major ass still, because it gives me more ticks for LoH.
I could barely pay the repair cost after vendoring all the blue and rare crap. This is stupid. Too much pain, not enough profit.
I'm loving the patch, repairs are expensive, but now my build is tanky enough to push through Act 2 and Act 3 as a DPS spec and not die all that often.
the way I see it the change to the crafting system helps out the adjusted repair costs. so far, despite increases cost I am still making gold. note that I have only dropped and inherited gear, no AH. I am quite squishy, and 10k repair costs don't break my bank still.
I'm not sure what my repairs are, but when I was about 25% damaged on my Barb it was about 16k, so I don't ever want to see yellow or red.
im a wiz, im squishy.. although after a patch i can take 2 hits instead of 1. but.... when i need to repair = 32,000 gold. I am down 250,000 gold now from repairs -.-
Sounds like Blizzard went bat-shit crazy with the repair costs. I'm not looking forward to seeing them first hand now.
I personally see it as a good thing, if not great thing. It should help to stop the absolutely insane inflation rate. Probably 95% of the high end items on the AH are from DH/Wizards going to really hard areas, doing a pile of damage, dying, then repeating until they kill everything. It really does help to level the playing field.
I found my 3rd legendary so far doing a butcher run in act 1 inferno with 2 friends. I also made my first RMAH transaction $8.99 Battlenet richer Damn it feels good making money playing a video game. I'm glad people out there want to pay real hard earned money for digital items because I can't afford it
hmmm thought I was in the WOW forums after a patch there for sec ... I had Moe, Larry and Curly run through my game yesterday!
Come on Urlyin, you know you want this for the amazing low price of $110 Everything with similar stats is going for $130
I'm a horder... plus I started keeping them when I read about patch 1.03 and the reduced cost to craft most of the gems. I kept the radiants when I leveled up my demon hunter, I guess I need to make them into squares now 2 Radiant + 85 gold + 1 Tome = 1 Square... definitely way better than before the patch 3 Radiant + 7500 gold + 1 Tome before the patch was a rip off. Almost worth keeping radiants now, especially if you horde like me
you do know squares are like 40-80 gold each in the AH? IMO doing the jewelcrafting is a waste of time AND tomes... transform all your squares into flawless squares I understand, but else keeping or crafting using radiants are a complete waste 2.20$ and I'm paying the thanks as down payment >
I'm actually getting kind of pissed off about the RMAH. My barb appears to be at the point where i can no longer find items on the regular AH because the ones i need people only want money for now.
