I loved Invasion on UT2004.
I miss it. Will be happy when it will come
I loved Invasion on UT2004.
I miss it. Will be happy when it will come
Can't use the original U1 monsters, though. They already looked pretty bad in 2k4, and would be beyond awful in UT3.
If it can't be modded, it ain't worth ****.
Then use the Unreal 2 Skarrj they looked awesome. I was really upset that Epic didn't add this game mode to UT3. UT3 is very much limited in game modes, it seems they put all their time in warfare, all the other game modes barely have any maps.
Yea the monsters from ut2004 are not good for ut3. We need new Monsters. But who can create some Monsters?
Its true UT3 has only the half on game modes as UT2004. No Mutators No Other Game modes. Thats very bad for such a big game.
I have also big software problems with ut3. All 10 minutes it crashes.
But this is not a theme for this forumroom ;-)
UT3 looks like a Beta....... :-( But i love Unreal Tournament i hope the best on future patches.
If its possible I would love to see these guys in UT3 Invasion. http://www.unrealtechnology.com/screens/Unreal2_2.jpg
Just use my Skaarj models I put out for ut2003/4 from Unreal2. I have the source art still but would need to probably rerig the meshes to the new UT3 skeletons so things work right. Unless I'm able to use the original animations I could make UT3 versions after I master the character creation process again.
UT3 is sooooo very different than previous versions especially in character model design.
Invasion + RPG mod = win
UT3 Invasion + RPG mod = even more win
me too....
I think if invasion does get remade it should still have the monsters from Unreal, I think it would be funny to see them in the current gen enviroments.
Invasion was the only thing keepin UT2004 alive!
I am working on a evolution of invasion... some details here:
I am getting a forum setup and working on the details of what will be needed, I should start active recruitment on the project here in a week or 2.
I am gonna ask some1 official if there is any legal issue with using monsters from The Awakening. If any1 official that can answer, sees this, please do tell.
Also there are many monsters from various monster packs that are high res enough to be a start with some tweaks and a little reskinning.
These guys have some nice monsters running on there UT2k4 INV server:
Which you can see if like me you still have UT2k4 installed.
There are other packs out there... and even some free models from around the net that can be used. However if we get a good modeling/animation segment of our team I will be pushing for all new ones. I even have some models that can be used.
I would like to be involved with who-ever takes on the challenge and i model/animate
Yes, just a mod that creates 'Invasion' in the browsers and packet with monsters. It will be a lot better if it is set to be played on all game modes maps (VCTF, CTF, Warfare) not only DM maps.

Academy for Learning in Retirement
Our Spring 2014 schedule includes a varitey of topics. Make sure you attend them all!
In the Service of the Institution
Presented by Martha Shipman Andrews
University Archivist, NMSU Library
Lecture I: New Mexico Aggies at War: 1941-1945: The World War II Correspondence of Dean Daniel B. Jett. Dean Jett carried on a personal correspondence with hundreds of his former students stationed stateside and throughout the world. His energy and enthusiasm boosted morale and created a unique legacy of insight into the lives of young men and women involved in cataclysmic world events. The nearly 5000 letters speak eloquently for themselves, so this lecture will take the form of a reading with commentary and multi-media enhancement.
Lecture II: New Mexico State College's Forgotten Presidents: Luther Foster, Winfred E. Garrison, George E. Ladd, and Austin D. Crile. These four presidents, variously degreed in agriculture, geology and theology, labored to establish a firm foundation of responsible administration for New Mexico's land-grant institution as New Mexico transitioned from Territory to Statehood. One by one, however, they were made to "walk the plank" because their ambitions crashed up against the prevailing-and shifting-political landscape.
Monday and Wednesday
December 9, 11
Islam and the West: Cultural
Contacts, Conflicts, and
Presented by Dr. Margaret Malamud
Professor of History, NMSU

Dates: Mondays and Wednesdays
February 3, 5, 10, & 12
Weather and Climate
Presented by Dr. Dave DuBois
State Climatologist, Department of Plant & Environmental Sciences, NMSU
Our atmosphere and its manifestation through weather and climate have intrigued us all at one point including some notable scientists in the past including Hippocrates, Aristotle, Newton, Pascal, Benjamin Franklin, Dalton, and Rossby just to name a few.
We will first touch on the history of weather measurements over time and how they shaped society and our world.
The second talk will be close to home and cover climates and weather patterns found in New Mexico. Extremes such as floods, heat waves, cold snaps, and severe weather are important topics and will be discussed. As we face a multi-year drought, its definition, impacts, forecasts, and man's attempts to mitigate it will also be covered. The last half of the lectures will focus on the human fingerprint on our atmosphere.
The third talk will cover the history of air pollution and effects on our earth.
The final lecture will cover the basic elements of climate change of the past, present, and possible future.
Dates: Mondays and Wednesdays
March 17, 19, 24, and 26

I want to generate a documentation on the application performance with stats related to speed, page load time and various other possible data with the same across different browsers. Basically i want to check if there is a one single tool to
- Test the speed of an application
- Page load time for all pages both static and dynamic in an application
- Detecting minor errors
- Resource loading time
- Load testing of the application
- XHR request time
- Location based stats for all the above mentioned.
- Browser based stats for all the above mentioned.
- Generate documentation for all the above mentioned data
Ideally id like a free open source solution.
If its too much to ask then im open to different solutions for various tasks as long as the tool can generate a perfect documentation for what ever data its collecting.
The ones ive looked at are very expensive and im not able to find one thats good and free.

Let me introduce you to Katie…
I met Katie on my first day of work. She was the twenty-something girl sitting at the computer next me; instantly I designated her my, "go to for help," person.
I remember at around 10am asking her a simple question. She didn't say much, but was nice while she stated the answer. Around 2pm I overheard her make an appointment with a doctor.
Nosy me, as most people do, wondered what that was for, but didn't think too much of it, a cold? a regular check up? just getting the pill? who knew.
That was the first, and last day I saw Katie for a while. She was in and out of the office over the next few weeks, and through the work grapevine I heard she was sick, very sick, but the doctors didn't know what was wrong with her.
But luckily, over the next month, I got to slowly know "work, professional Katie," and instantly liked her. Her sarcasm, wit, and humour made me walk into the office each morning and stand on my tip toes from the door to see if she was at her desk. When she wasn't, I'd send her a quick text telling her I simply hoped she was hungover, and to make sure she was okay. She never was.
And then one morning, as I was sipping my morning coffee, my boss told me Katie had been diagnosed the night before with Multiple Sclerosis (MS). A few months shy of her thirtieth birthday, and after having never been sick before, Katie had MS. The news took my breath away. I hardly knew this girl next to me, but I wanted to yell at God for her. That seemed so unfair. Not right. I didn't know what to do.
Despite her high spirits on the phone, and her amazing attitude of, "I'm just pleased the doctors now know what it is," I felt numb all day. Hell, for that week. My limited view on MS wasn't good; to me it meant wheel chairs, pain, and dare I say worse?
But now, after two months off work, Katie is back to being my regular desk buddy, and has become so much more than just a "work friend," or as I call her, my "work wife." Her sarcasm, humour & wit leaves me with tears in my eyes many days, and our boss is convinced we can't go anywhere without the other (true story). She is certainly someone I believe I'll stay in close contact with for years to come, and overall she is someone who has taught me so much about what exactly MS is, and dealing with the cards you're dealt. She's put my life & 'issues' (oh hi there weight loss) into great perspective, and is a perfect example of shit happens, it sucks, but you figure it out, and life is still good.
I'll let you read Katie's personal and honest journey over at her blog, I'm Not Drunk… Wait; I encourage you to follow along & start at the beginning of her story. You'll a) get a sense of her awesomeness, b) learn about MS (she presents it for dummies like me), and c) get a glimpse into a real life story about someone who went from being a totally fine, wine-drinking, stretchy-pants wearing, "ball breaker," with the "face of an angel, but mouth of a trucker," to going blind in one eye (that 1st day we met) and suddenly being diagnosed with a life changing disease.
Ohhhh, and! Katie is also (because it's all I yabber on about at work) doing Paleo, after some investigative work she learned that eating paleo is one of the best things you can do for yourself if you have MS.
Love your work wife.

Nice helmet. Looks great and fit is good. Only bad thing is I can't get my head into the helmet as the opening is small. Definately a painful experience getting it on and off. Once on, the XL size is the right size for me. I would not go to a larger size as then it would be too big!

Inexpensive bar, works out well till the first hard crash. Just like most. However you can buy four sets of these for the price of fat bars so if cost is the driving factor these are it.

I can´t believe that some people are still buying that rag.
Too bad it´s not 7,000.
I just love a hot cup of shadenfreud in the morning.
wow. now I have to get out my teeny tiny violin...
more people for the "occupy" camps
I can´t believe anyone other than government agencies and elite liberals buy this rag. I know many dem and repub middle class who say the only time they even pick the Mag up is when they are in doctor´s offices and then the mags are years old.
And Time´s Man of the Year is.....
They needed 700+ for that magazine? The last one I saw had about as many pages as the grocery store flier, and less substance.
I didn´t realize that Time was still published!
If I didn´t have to see my doctor from time to time, I wouldn´t even know that Time is still around.
When you actively and aggressively support someone committed to your economic destruction you should be very happy when your dream comes true.Job loss along with sky high taxes is just another form of having "skin in the game". No one at Time has any cause for complaint.
#10, and most of the time the articles are old, therefore, the ads are old, and not relevant to those who purchased ad-space.And those under 40 don´t really read newspapers, or lengthy articles in magazines like Time, or Newsweek, etc..They´re stuck in a google search-word world where "answers" are provided after a couple clicks. They don´t know how to think through a problem, or process, but have an "answer" based on the search.
Too bad. So sad.
Just think, once Obamacare really kicks in, doctor´s offices won´t be able to afford the the remaining subscriptions to Time.
Imagine what would happen with a 10% ad decline.
TIME magazine is truly an item whose time has come...it´s totally biased, completely left leaning, out of touch and full of inaccuracies better known as lies...it carries the water for the liberals and pretends it´s a ´news´ media...Obama´s pick for ´man of the year´ was an example, picked as #4 was the Egyptian dictator who is making demands that this country free the blind sheik that tried to blow up the twin towers the first time...TIME´s list of stupidity is long and distinguished and it´s passing will hardly be noticed by anyone. You are truly forgotten but just not gone...yet.
Chickens, let me introduce you to Roost.
What goes around comes around, and a good thing in this case.I wouldn´t use their rag in a bird cage!
I´m shocked that they had more than 700 employees--I knew of tina brown, but didn´t realize there were more!
´´Zing!´´ ...Another boomerang on the shameless dem media!
It´s about time.
Well... it´s about Time!(Sorry)
Wow #22! I guess I hadn´t "refreshed."Now I´m really sorry!

The Environmental Health and Radiation Safety Department (EHRS) is responsible for ensuring the safe use of radioactive materials, radiation- producing equipment, chemicals and biological substances at the University, Hospital and affiliated institutions. EHRS is responsible for identifying safety problems; initiating, recommending, or providing corrective actions; verifying implementation of corrective actions; and ensuring compliance with regulations and University policies for the use of hazardous substances.
Security of Hazardous Materials Reminder
Environmental Health & Radiation Safety would like to remind all hazardous material users of the institutional policies and government regulations that cover hazardous materials/equipment areas:
- Areas must be secured from unauthorized access at all times.
- Individuals whose job does not require them to be present must be questioned as to why they have entered the area.
- All unauthorized individuals must be escorted at all times.
- Any missing hazardous materials must immediately be reported to EHRS and Campus Security.
New Visitor and Volunteer Policy for All Laboratories
Temple University has a new Visitor and Volunteer Policy that applies to all labs. If you are planning on having a visitor or volunteer enter your lab, even for a short period of time, you must follow the policy. This policy also pertains to minors who may be entering a lab.
Coming Soon: Global Harmonization System
The Occupational Safety & Health Administration (OSHA) has issued its final rule on the revised changes to the Hazard Communication Standard (HCS) on March 26, 2012. This revision will align the HCS with the Global Harmonized System (GHS) of Classification and Labeling of Chemicals. The major changes to the Hazard Communication Standard (HCS) are:
- Hazard classification: Chemical manufacturers and importers are required to determine the hazards of the chemicals they produce or import. Hazard classification under the new, updated standard provides specific criteria to address health and physical hazards as well as classification of mixtures.
- Labels: Chemical manufacturers and importers must provide a label that includes a signal word, pictogram, hazard statement, and precautionary statement for each hazard class or category. Refer to section below for additional information on Labels.
- Safety Data Sheets (SDS - no longer called MSDS): The new format requires 16 specific sections, ensuring consistency in presentation of important product information. Refer to the OSHA quick card on SDS for additional information on SDS.
- Information and training: To facilitate understanding of the new system, the new standard requires that workers be trained by December 1, 2013 on the new label elements and safety data sheet (SDS) format, in addition to current training requirements.

Changes made to CEMS system
The CEMS chemical inventory system was recently updated. This update should not cause its users any major issues, though there were a few changes that regular users should know about:
1) The Add Chemical Container module is a little different. You will still enter the same information into CEMS, but the system will prompt you in a different order. It is also now required that you enter an expiration date and container type when entering a new container. If your chemical does not have a given expiration date you can put a date either a year from the date it was received or from the day you are entering it into CEMS.
2) The Update Inventory function has been renamed Multi-Update Inventory. If you need to update multiple containers (for example, you need to mark 10 containers as empty), you should now click on the Multi-Update Chemical Inventory link. From there you can perform the same steps as with the earlier versions of CEMS.
Information Form for New Faculty
A form has been created to help familiarize new faculty with Temple University's policies and procedures, as well as training requirements. Completing this form can also help prevent any delay when seeking approval of research applications. The form can be found here.
New Chemical Redistribution List Available
EHRS maintains a Chemical Redistribution List. These are chemicals that have been picked up by EHRS and are still in usable condition. If a lab is interested in obtaining any of the chemicals on the list, please send an e-mail to email@example.com. In the e-mail include your name, the PI name (if different), the lab location, and a contact phone number. EHRS personnel will be in touch regarding delivery of the chemical.
The current Chemical Redistribution list can be found here.

Something I have found very useful is to keep note in my private journal of health improvements I've seen when they happen. Then it's there in black and white to go back to and read any time the sorts of doubts you describe crop up.
I notice that my thoughts are very habitual and repetitive and I don't have to believe them or take them seriously. Sometimes it's hard to dismiss them -- they keep coming back -- but I can always question them.
I got a lot of help with handling troublesome thoughts by reading the book Loving What Is by Byron Katie and Stephen Mitchell.

Indianhead Mountain Resort is open for the season
BESSEMER -- The Big Snow Country ski season kicked off Friday with opening day at the Indianhead Mountain Resort. Hundreds took to the slopes in the western U.P. for the first time this winter.
Indianhead opened its doors to skiers early Friday morning. Fifteen-year-old Jack Sarama traveled from Land O' Lakes, Wisconsin to be the first one down the hill for the second year in a row.
"I skipped school to be out here. I probably shouldn't say that, but it's a great time. I love skiing. It's what I do every weekend," said Sarama.
Throughout opening day, a couple hundred skiers tested their skills on the slopes for their first run of the season. The slopes and trails are in good shape, but much of the thanks goes to the hill's staff.
"We wish we had a little colder weather and a little more snow, but Mother Nature isn't helping us as much as she normally does, so we have to make the snow and do it ourselves," said Barry Bolich, General Manager and Executive Vice President for Indianhead.
The 640-foot Indianhead Ski Hill has been a popular U.P. skiing destination for more than 50 years. Bessemer business owners welcome the fresh influx of new and returning customers. Big Sno Outfitters opened its doors the previous weekend to prepare for Indianhead's opening day.
"As soon as God gives us snow, they come. They come from the central eight states to ski Indianhead, Big Powderhorn, and Blackjack," said Serwe.
Serwe sees around 5,000 advanced and novice skiers every season. He emphasizes the importance of a properly tuned ski for all skiers.
"It is important to have a good tune on a beginner ski as well as a racing ski. You've got to be sharp on the right places on the ski to stay in the course," Serwe said.
Conditions are likely to be much warmer this weekend to make for less than ideal skiing conditions, but Barry Bolich is not concerned.
"It slows us down for making snow, but it also gives our guests a great experience. If they can get out in the 30s and 40s and enjoy the warm weather, they really have a great time," Bolich said.
Indianhead Mountain Resort is only the first to open in Big Snow Country. The Blackjack and Big Powderhorn resorts open on December 14.

So I guess I lied about the whole keeping up with posting things post that I wrote around a week ago. But I do have a really good excuse this time. One of our family dogs died last week so that kind of put a damper on last week. I (the intern) didn't really work much and the week seemed to pass a little too quickly. This week the kitten was sick. So that's my other excuse. But no more excuses allowed.
Tory (me) is still working on subtitling… surprise surprise.
Bossman (Danny) has been slaving away at Disney all week working at WDI. But, as everyone knows, it is the most magical place on earth.
Also, the short film, Parts, that we shot last summer was messed with a little bit this week. It has been a busy year but we're trying to get it done when we have some downtime. Obviously working on projects we will get paid for is top priority but we would sure like to see how Parts turned out. ((maybe i'll put up some still shots from the set a little later for your viewing pleasure)).
So we're doing what we can over here at StudioSaySo. Getting stuff done. It's pretty rad.

Springfield College to Receive 'Award of Merit' Jostens/NADIIIAA's Top Community Service Honor
January 11, 2008SPRINGFIELD, Mass. – Jan. 11, 2008 – Springfield College has been selected to receive the highly-coveted Jostens/NADIIIAA Community Service Top "Award of Merit" for projects completed during the 2006-07 academic year. The college will be presented the Jostens/NADIIIAA highest Award of Merit in the "Array of Projects/Activities" category on January 14, 2008 at the NCAA Convention in Nashville.
This prestigious awards program is co-sponsored by the National Association of Division III Athletic Administrators and by Jostens, and is intended to recognize the many contributions that Division III student-athletes make to their communities. The purpose is to make a difference in the lives of those less fortunate.
A total of 10 colleges and universities will receive Awards of Merit from Jostens/NADIIIAA in three separate categories. Another eight schools will receive honorable mention status in the same three categories. Springfield College will be one of three schools nationally to receive the most sought-after of the awards. Besides the Array of Projects/Activities category, other award categories include the One-Time Project/Activity and the On-Going Project/Activity.
As an overall category winner, Springfield College will receive a commemorative trophy and a check for $1000 directed to the institution's general scholarship fund.
In 2006-07, Springfield College participated in over 40 different projects. On September 21, 2006, over 700 student-athletes from 26 varsity teams were involved in the College's annual Humanics in Action Day. Projects during that day included: cleaning up local elementary and middle schools, raking and mowing lawns, general clean-up, painting decks, and reading to fourth graders. All geared to improve the local community, those projects lasted approximately four hours.
Some of the other student-athlete-driven projects throughout the year included tutoring local high school students; setting up benefits for the United Way, the Cystic Fibrosis Foundation, the Open Pantry Homeless Shelter and Teen Living Program in Springfield and the Adopt-A-Family Program; and visiting Shriners Hospital in Springfield.
"We are very honored and appreciative of receiving such an outstanding award," said Springfield College Director of Athletics Cathie A. Schweitzer. "It will be very humbling to receive it on behalf of our students. The mission of Springfield College is to 'educate students in spirit, mind, and body for leadership in service to humanity by building upon a foundation of humanics and academic excellence.' Community service is a large part of this mission. It helps to prepare our students for a life of helping others."
Springfield College has received Awards of Merit from this program in the past. It earned an Award of Merit in the Ongoing Project/Activity category in 2003-04, and an Award of Merit in the One-Time Project/Activity category in 2004-05.
"I have been most proud of how often and to what extent our student-athletes participate in community service on a regular basis," said Schweitzer. "Our intercollegiate teams remain integral parts of service to our local communities. As for this award, it will send a loud message for generations of Springfield College student-athletes to come about how there is personal satisfaction and educational value inherent in community service."
The NADIIIAA is an association comprised of athletics administrators from the 437 institutions and 40 conferences competing at the NCAA Division III level. Minneapolis-based Jostens is a leading provider of products, programs, and services that help people celebrate important moments, recognize achievements, and build affiliations.
Kelly Hart, an associate director of athletics, who spearheads Springfield College's community service projects, said, "I can't tell you how proud I am of our student-athletes and coaches. Both serve as role models. The student-athletes continually initiate projects, and our coaches continually get behind their efforts. They all really want to make a difference. My hat's off to them."

thats like saying Ati cards seem to be having the most oc'ing issues its completly pointless w1z is working on it and it will get fixed...though i wonder did he fix AtiTool so that HD series cores can be oc'd correctly?
right, i know he's working on it, but for every gpu-z problem with an ati card i've seen like 5 nvidia problems. not trying to start a flame war, just stating an observation.
Whoa! Quick reply Any chance of knowing when this problem is solved? I didn't have it in older versions
dont trust statistics .. one possible reason could be that more people use nvidia so the problems are detected more often. or the nvidia people are more report-happy and the ati users are lazy? etc etc
Im running vista 64bit buisness edition and I got 2x 3850 in crossfire mode. I know its enabled, fps and all the other goodies prove it. When I load any of the gpu-z's it still shows it as disabled. Is this a bug? they worked fine in windows xp 32bit, just not in vista 64bit. Funny thing is I couldnt get crossfire to work in xp but gpu-z said it was enabled.
On WinXP SP2: I have: Palit Radeon x1550 Sonic (256mb ddr3 [600/1000]) New Version Shows that it is a HIS card. Also i'm not able to save the bios file.

No school, lots of snow and bright sun meant kids everywhere were looking for the sleds on Thursday. As the kids prepared to slide down the hills, parents scouted ahead for safe and obstacle free hills.
"They slide wherever and rotate," said Jeff Kowaney after making sure his daughter, Emily, was safe. "You never go straight."
High speeds and hidden dangers mean a lot of sledding accidents across the country. On Wednesday, a young girl was injured when her sled hit a wooden stake at Sunnycrest Park in Syracuse. In 2009, a child died when their sled hit a parked car near Westcott Reservoir in Geddes.
"To a kid a sled is a rocketship going down a hill and it can gain incredible speed very quickly depending on the amount of ice," said Seth Greenky, an orthopedic surgeon at St. Joseph's hospital. "The most frequent injuries - a quarter of the injuries are fractures."
Sledding is prohibited in city parks. Kids were hitting the slopes on the hills around nearby Woodlawn Reservoir on Thursday - but with caution.
Sledder Carleigh Baird said she was avoiding one particularly large jump since "you could actually really hurt yourself."
Doctors recommend that parent make sure kids coming up the hill don't get in the way of sleds heading down the hill. Greenky also said parents should make sure the trail is safe but with some discretion.
"It's an excellent idea, its just that kid that is sledding down doesn't want anyone else to know that's their parent checking out the hill," said Greenky.
Some sledders had their own emergency plan. Haley Summers said she planned to bail out of her sled if it got to close to any trees.
The medical journal "Pediatrics" estimated 20,000 sledding accidents take place every year. Greenky and several other doctors recommend kids wear helmets when sledding.

Another click site: Clickety-click for climate balance! Yeah, so it's in Swedish, but you can still see the button. ;-) You can also mail 10 people about it (the "TIPSA"-button) and neutralize 100 kilos of carbon dioxide. Neutralization is made mainly through planting of trees, but also research in energy-effective engineering and projects in developing countries. The trees are planted in e.g Senegal. |

I am currently using 7th Generation's dish soap, but also really really liked the Sun & Earth brand as well. Coela- I think you are exactly right about all the waste-labor materials to manufacture the paper plates; on some level I think I probably already knew that, but had been too lazi to thought-process it all the way through like that, so thank you. I admit I am terrible about using my dishwasher, but only when it's a full load and on the most energy efficient cycle and still hand wash a fair amount of our dishes conservatively too. cross posted w/ another thread: Gaiam Living (.com) has a new Zero-Out program with the Conservation Fund that let's you buy a tree to be planted in your name for just $2** that says it will negate (in time) the carbon made to ship your order to you. I ordered my frecklette some stuff from there ( a 100% organic cotton shirt that donates to the aspca but they have lots of other non-profit choices too, such as dr's w/out border etc etc) and am "getting her a tree." (comes w/ a certificate too.) Gaiam is the very first company to be doing something like this and I think it's really exciting; I would Love to see the idea spread, esp as I am doing most of my holiday shopping online this year and in fact, think I will order additional tree's for each order I place anywhere regardless. -------------------- I'm gonna let it shine

I have a question here - which is worse/better for environment : using paper plates to conserve water in this time of terrible drought here in the US, or using regular plates that have to be water washed, to save tree's that are used to make paper plates? ( & yes I know there are p. plates made of recycled paper.. maybe I just answered my own question?) Considering you already have your plates at home, and all you need is maybe a few litres of water per day for the washing up, compared to: growing trees (land & time needed), fuel for machines to cut down trees, transporting people who'll plant new trees, transporting trees to wood industry (and power & water used there), water & power (and chemicals) needed for the factory that makes paper plates, people commuting to factory, transportation for paper plates from factory to store, power & water needed for store, transportation for you from your home to the store to buy paper plates, and then energy needed to pick up garbage & recycle paper plates, I'd say you can wash your regular plates instead of buying new ones. With as little water as you can (i.e not the dish washer). I feel very bad for you with this horrible drought you have, it really seems like a nightmare. |

so at first i thought the flushable diper thing was an awsome solution, but in a water drought wouldnt flushing the toilet be using just as much water as soing cloth diper laundry? just wondering. Well, it depends. First question, is how old is your toilet? If you have a newer model, they only use about 1.3 - 1.5 gal/flush, whereas an older model will use 2.5 or even more, depending on age. It also depends on how you wash them. If you use a front-loading washing machine to wash 30 or so at a time, then that probably conserves more water. If you hand wash them one or two at a time, given most sink faucets are rated at 1.5 - 3 gal/minute, if you take more than a minute per diaper, you're probably better off flushing disposables. Since I also assume (possibly incorrectly) that you'll already be flushing any poo deposited in the cloth diaper, you may as well just get the flushables, as you'll be using the flush water anyway. |

I have a question here -
which is worse/better for environment : using paper plates to conserve water in this time of terrible drought here in the US, or using regular plates that have to be water washed, to save tree's that are used to make paper plates? ( & yes I know there are p. plates made of recycled paper.. maybe I just answered my own question?) -------------------- I'm gonna let it shine

well yah, you can throw them out too, and they are biodegratable sure, but throwing them out in plastic bags wont make them any more biodegratable would it? you would have to compost them or something? im not trying to be argumentative, im just wondering. im planning on having kids in the next few years and i try to be as green as possible (while still living in a city) and ive been wondering about things like this. thats so funny that throwing away human poop is illegal!
and yah vinegar is good for so many things around the house, its amazing. |

I don't have kids and therefore no diapers, but I have to ask -- if they're flushable, are they compostable?
PS -- I've discovered that diluted vinegar is really good for cleaning painted walls, and also anything chrome. Makes it all shiny-like! |

you can trash them too, they're biodegradable. poop should get flushed either way, even with disposables. throwing human feces in the trash is totally illegal, fancy that eh? millions of parents a day breaking the law unbeknownst to them.

Thanks for those tips, Hoosierman.
You are right, getting on the grid would be costly, plus having it disconnected and reconnected all the time adds up too. They are selling those wind turbines here - we don't get much wind where I have in mind but it would be worth a try, and they look great. The area is pretty darn temperate - it will never freeze or get very hot - but it rains a lot and is wet and humid. So for the actual construction I'll probably be looking at what else is going on in the region. It doesn't make sense to ship things if I can avoid it. Hmm well you two have given me a lot to start investigating! Thanks! |

Luckily out there is where my family IS; they'd all be within shouting distance (well, loud shouting anyway). Part of my motivation is that I miss them. There's drinking water there, but I don't think it runs fast or plentiful enough to generate power. The mountains in BC sounds intriguing. Thanks for the building tip, I actually hadn't heard of those. Some people here are into adobe etc but that's about it. Venetia- There are actually quite a few options you can go with. There are small, propeller hydro units that don't require much velocity/flow to produce electricity. More info on those here. Depending on the sun/wind available, pv cells & windmills could prove cost effective as well. There are relatively new vertical axis wind turbines, that don't have the enormous propellers to create an unsightly view or chop up birds. Also, they are much quieter than traditional wind turbines. One other thing. I know you mentioned it wouldn't be for full-time living, but if you would like a more permanent type of building, insulated concrete forms (ICF) & structural insulated panels (SIP) provide tremendous strength, along with very high insulating values. If procured from green minded vendors, the materials are almost as renewable (and not nearly as susecptable to mold & rot) as the straw bale & cob constructions. If natural gas is available, you can always opt for a fuel cell. THey are about 99% efficient, and their only emissions are heat & water. I think you will find that any of these will be relatively expensive, but then again, if it is that remote, getting hooked up to the grid can also be quite costly. I don't know your budget or your electrical needs, but in my experience, a combination of 2 or more power sources, combined with battery storage provide electrical power that is all but identical to being hooked up to the grid. |

oh my goodness, are you actually ME?
"I'd like to build a small shack in the bush ("woods") in the next 5 years, and thought it would be better to stay off the national grid, given that I don't actually plan to live in it much." this is how i ended up in the mountains in bc, searching for my "off the grid". i missed my family too much though. there are fantastic courses you can take in haybale and cob house building, check that out if you haven't already. as for the power, you could have a water wheel if you were close to water and so inclined, though it would be costly initially to set it up. solar panels are advancing by leaps and bounds and personal windmills are everywhere these days. it really depends on your budget and what you can do yourself. |

I'm just beginning to think about it really. I'd like to build a small shack in the bush ("woods") in the next 5 years, and thought it would be better to stay off the national grid, given that I don't actually plan to live in it much. But I really don't like diesel generators. So then I was thinking about water turbines, solar panels, even those things where you use a bicycle!

You will be greeted at the pier and begin your tour to the Valley of the Kings by transferring to Luxor.
The Valley of the Kings was begun during the 18th Dynasty when they abandoned Memphis. The tombs here are cut directly into the limestone, thus making it harder to rob the tombs.
You will then visit the temple of Queen Hasheput, the first great female ruler. Upon the death of her husband, Pharaoh Thutmose II she proclaimed herself Pharaoh over his rightful heir, his son & her nephew. She dressed as a king, even wearing a false beard. Her reign lasted for 20 year. When the nephew grew to be a man, Hasheput disappeared from history. All that remains is the temple which Thutmose III removed her name & likeness from during his reign.
Next stop to view the Colossi of Memnon, the two massive stone statues of Pharaoh Amenhotep III. Built from blocks of quartzite sandstone, each colossi reach a feet of approximate 60 feet. Their original function was to guard the entrance to Amenhotep's memorial temple.
After transferring back to the eastern bank of the Nile, there will be a break for lunch. There will be an optional tour - sound and light and city tour. You will be transferred to your hotel of choice.
After breakfast you will meet in the lobby to transfer to the great temples of Karnak.
Karnak is likely the second most visited site in Egypt next to Giza. This vast complex was built and enlarged over a thirteen hundred year period. It is the largest temple complex ever built by man, and represents the combined achievement of many generations of ancient builders.
The Temple of Luxor was the center of the most important festival in ancient Egypt. This is the location of the Festival of Opet, where the king become rejoined with his ka and thus being transformed into a divine being.
After taking a break for lunch, you will then begin your journey back to your cruise ship.

Stuff was hellpfull polite
We were looking for a hotel close to the airport just for the night, since our plane was leaving early morning. And for that purpose it's great. Plus, they have a pancake machine! The hotel is awesome, but for exploring la the location sucks. Only pick this hotel if you need to be close to the airport.
The fire alarm went off at 7 in the morning, which probably woke up the whole hotel. It was only 15 minutes before our wake up call, so we decided not to make a fuss about it. However, the breakfast room was packed (I'd guess because of the alarm), so we had to eat in a smelly meeting room.
The room is very comfortable and clean
Every thing was fine

Close to the airport and the free shuttle. Had an early morning flight next day, so it was very convenient for me. I liked the free breakfast too. Wifi was available and free. Fast check in/check out. Staff were all smiling and friendly. It was my first time to visit States and i felt safe and the overall experience for me was just great!
There was no iron...but thats ok as i was there for a night.
Location, as we were using it as a stop-over on route to New Zealand from England
The breakfast although in the price was of very poor choice for example no fresh fruit on offer, and particularly the plastic cutlery and the polystyrene "crockery"
I loved the layout and design of the lobby. I liked how cleaned and comfortable the room felt and was. I liked how everything was a reach away and how everything you could think of was in the room. I loved that there was a convenience store and restaurant around the corner. Also, I thought it was a nice touch with the gift bag at check-in.
Although the lobby staff was very friendly and helpful, I found it odd that other staff member were not as forth coming when we passed them in the hall. Also, the neighborhood could use a little TLC.
The staff was very helpful and knew the area and recommending dinning locations. I was very impressed by the staffs willingness to go out of their way to make my stay very comfortable
Very close to the airport and 1 min drive from the rental car returns. Breakfast was reasonable. Good beds and a quiet airco. Car park on the premises. Facilities to print-out the boarding pass.
No fridge. Only fruit at breakfast were bananas: no other fresh fruit (salad).
I reall liked the proximity to the hollywood walk of fame. very convenient.
the only thing I did'T like was the fact tat the pool was not very clean. there was quitea bit of debri
Close. To airport Airport shuttle Calm Business center Reception desk personel
It was ok
They put the wrong date on our credit card, and overcharged us.
like the fact that the staff helped out when i checked in ended my day on a good note love the free parking and that the house keeper put my food in thir fridge
didnt like that there was not a fridge but was a safe which i feel would not get used as much as a fridge didnt like that the shttle only comes when u call not every 15 20 min

Katherine Buchmayr's cats were the deciding factor in her choice of medium, according to a press release from the Gallery at Equinox Village in Manchester, which is showing her paintings. She used to paint with acrylics, but when the kitties walked through the paint — as kitties inevitably do — they left permanent paw prints all over her Dorset house. "Because she can sacrifice neither her passion for painting nor her beloved cats," the release says, "she has switched to water-based oils." Buchmayr's New England landscape and animal paintings make up a show called "Here and There," on view through February 18. Pictured: "A Day in Vermont."

How to win the third debate: say something new (but not too new)
Conservatives, Labour, Liberal Democrats April 27, 2010 No Comments »So I've been thinking and I think the way to come out winning the last of the three debates, this Thursday, is to say something dramatic and new.
The first debate was obviously the game changer. People had the chance to see that there was a third real option, they liked it, as few as 1 in 10 people decided to switch to it, and the rest is history.
The second debate was always destined to be the quiet one - neither the first or last chance to see the leaders, supposedly focussed on foreign policy (though if you had tuned in hoping for some actual discussion of foreign policy issues you would have been fairly confused), and it was on the subscription channel (Sky). And indeed all it did was really confirm the impressions of the first one, just with Cameron behaving a bit more like Clegg, and Brown attacking Clegg instead of agreeing with him.
So what strategy for the third one? We've now had 3 hours of being able to watch these men and surely by now people have a pretty clear impression of what they think of them. Bar a few more tinkerings with the acting and the nuances of positioning which may tip things slightly in one direction or the other, we can't really expect people to form a radically different view of the three men from their behaviour this time.
The only two ways it seems to me that the final debate could really change the position again, are these.
First, is the one we always knew about: that a leader could just make a brief and terrible mistake by saying something they really didn't mean to. A few slipped up words could so easily have an impact out of all proportion to their actual significance, in giving the impression of that leader as incompetent, or really intending to do something that they have denied. Clearly all the participants will want to avoid this way of making their performance in the last debate memorable!
The only other way, it seems to me, is to say something new. Not a new major policy position - at this stage in the campaign that would simply give the impression that their manifesto isn't a firm plan at all, but something flexible which they're willing to change just to get a good headline. We have seen hints of this already with Cameron's instant commitment on alleged cuts in last week's debate (in response to Brown's challenge), or Brown's commitment on NHS funding to the RCN yesterday. At this stage, changing a policy position of any significance does considerably more harm than good.
But there may be other elements which a leader can throw out there, which are both new to the campaign, and actually important (suddenly deciding that you don't like the phrasing of the commitment on marine biology on page 427 of a rival's manifesto is not really going to cut it).
This could be a significant attack on one (or both) of your opponents. This needs to be something new and major, which may be a challenge at this stage in the campaign. But there may perhaps be new ways of putting this, particularly if it's about their political positioning, rather than a policy. Labour is sure to try some version of this, along the lines of "Vote Clegg, Get Cameron". Cameron will surely also try to sell a line which boils down to broadly "Vote Clegg, Get Brown". Neither of these are very new - though if Nick is able to come up with an imaginative response to them which is not just the bathtub defence ("They're both just the same, like squabbling children in the bath: vote Clegg and get Clegg") then this may qualify as a killer line.
Or it could be something about their own positioning. Any of the three leaders proclaiming that in the event of a hung Parliament they'd be prepared to work with one of their rivals, but not the other one, would certainly qualify as this, but I doubt very much it's going to happen.
But something about the way they would govern might do it.
Something which is a radical way of putting something which is already in their manifesto, perhaps implying they would go even further along a road already set out in principle in their manifestos, might do it.
All the parties have certainly left plenty enough room for more detail in their plans for sorting out the nation's finances that they could outline more detailed plans here without being inconsistent with what they've already said.
And of course a good emergency would be ideal, allowing the leaders to give a distinctively different response to their rivals, and allowing them to start from a blank sheet of paper, relatively unconstrained by what they've said before.
It could be lots of things. It just has to be new, important, and not obviously inconsistent with anything they've already said.
This may not be particularly easy at this stage of the campaign. But it is surely the only way to use the last debate to give your popularity a real upwards boost, beyond the impression that the public already has of you.

Lady-De, I am promoting this story based on its fascinating subject matter and your good eye for finding it. Good stuff.
We can read more about Jose Luis de Jesus Miranda here.
Self-proclaimed 'Antichrist' to meet followers in Guatemala
— He calls himself the Anti-Christ, wears the number 666 tattooed on his arm
and claims a following of 2 million people.
And Jose Luis de Jesus Miranda is coming to Guatemala whether
it wants him or not.
The Central American country has banned the leader of the
Florida-based Growing in Grace
church, arguing he is a
security risk because he provokes conflict with Roman Catholics and
However, Miranda still strategy plans to fly in on a
private jet Saturday to celebrate his 61st birthday and meet with thousands of
followers from around the world.
"It has been predetermined and angels will make it
happen. He is, after all, God himself," said Axel Poessy, Miranda's media
It is believed to be the Puerto Rican-born former
evangelical priest's latest attempts to expand his following in Central America. Most of his clique Followers are in Miami and Colombia,
but Miranda holds a congress every year in different locations in the Americas.
Often he takes designs at the Catholic Church — the most
powerful faith in Latin America — calling all priests child molesters and
saying chastity vows go against the Bible's teachings. Members of his church
have destroyed images of saints and other religious symbols in El Salvador, and marched in Guatemala and Honduras.
He preaches that sin and the devil do not exist. In
January, he revealed tattoos of the numbers 666 on his forearms and declared
that he and his followers was anti-Christ's because their beliefs supersede
those of Jesus Christ. The Bible describes the anti-Christ as a big name who
will fill the world with badness but be dominated by a second coming of Christ.
Congress labeled him a radical terrorist, and immigration officials have been
instructed to refuse him entry to the country. Honduras
and El Salvador
have also banned him.
"Many have told me that I shouldn't pay attention to
a crazy man like him, but Hitler was also crazy and look what he did,"
said Julio Morales, the congressman who proposed the resolution declaring
Miranda a terrorist. "We took this measure because they have burned
crosses, images of Christ in other countries and demonstrated in front of an
evangelical church in Guatemala,
just to create confrontation."
It was not clear, however, if the government would be able
to block Miranda's private jet from landing. His right-hand man, Carlos
Cestero, said Miranda has been in Guatemala at least 14 times in the
past decade — before he declared himself the anti-Christ.
Followers see Miranda as a savior. Critics say he is a
dangerous cult leader.
"What is more evil than all the exorbitant titles
associated with him is the power he exercises over his followers," said
Daniel Alvarez, an instructor in the department of religious studies at Florida International University
