The learned Irish tradition was first written in the trees

The Irish have a learned tradition that is unique to Europe and which helped flip the continent from barbaric illiteracy in Dark Ages, to the illumination and bookishness that would become western civilization.
Important European universities began as Irish monasteries, built by literati that left Ireland with the education to teach the chaotic post-Roman world to read.
Old Irish books are tortured creatures, made from skinned calves, and often fated to the bonfires of Europe's philistine streak. In the bonfires of conquerors the independent scholarly tradition of Ireland's proto-universities was almost destroyed, as with the round towers and sanctuaries along the Shannon.
The Irish--however broken their Gaelic Order had become--maintained secret hedge schools and continued to write unpublished books in the candlelight of a private Irish Dark Ages under colonial rule. Keeping alive their learning, is what let the Irish mind survive eradication to know to seek freedom in modern times.
The oldest Irish teachers, the Druids, used trees to understand the workings of the human brain. Tree branching imitates the branching of animal neural networks, and trees provide an external model for 'seeing' the mind within.
The old books tell us that Ogma used birch wood to invent writing. Birch has white bark with black stripes, and Ogham, the first Irish writing system imitates these stripes in the form of notches on either side of a central line.
The Irish alphabet is a set of equivalents, where letters or notches refer to particular trees, colors and moods. Through these associations, boiled down to a codified alphabet, the druids--we see in charts in The Book of Ballymote--made codes and memorized secrets. Innocent conversations or poetic performances could be used to spell out secondary messages in Ogham, that the uninitiated missed.
Ogham survives as a writing system today for talismans and honorific objects, such as that received by Michael Bloomberg, mayor of New York, whose name was inscribed in Ogham on an oaken branch and presented to him by a member of Irish parliament.
The burden of being Irish is the learning. To be Irish, is to learn to be Irish, which means learning to read the trees planted in the palimpsest manuscript of Ireland.

That learning doesn't seem to take in punctuation.

Hooked - (Stacia Naquin)
Updated: 10/11/2013 - I'm SO CLOSE to being able to do a pull-up. So my trainer introduced something new into my training.
A dangerous police chase ends with a violent crash just feet from a family's home.
The wreck happened at Deepgreen and Serendipity. That's near S. Carefree Cir. and Academy.
Police say the chase started just before 2 a.m. when they tried to pull over the suspect near North Academy and La Salle because their license plate came back as stolen.
When the officer tried to make the traffic stop the car sped off and the chase started.
It all came to an end when the suspect's car smashed into a pair of trees in the neighborhood just off of South Carefree Circle.
The driver tried to run after crashing the car. A woman who lives near where the accident happened said police used a stun gun to take down the suspect and arrest him.
Police arrested 39 year old Richard Davis. He was taken to the hospital, but is expected to be ok.

A lifetime of shame and stigma coming with an ill-conceived tattoo can be undone with laser tattoo removal.
Rita Morgan, aesthetic coordinator at Wellsprings Institute of Dermatology, said the treatments are hard to find in Paducah and western Kentucky. She suggests patients search for the treatments in larger cities, such as Nashville, Tenn., Louisville or St. Louis.
Dr. Daniel Tkach of Renaissance Plastic Surgery in Paducah said he no longer practices laser tattoo removal. The reason: laser treatments with his technology were expensive, painful and often left incomplete results. He said the lasers heated the tattoo pigments in the skin, causing them to deteriorate. The body's own immune system will dispose of much of the destroyed ink.
"Typically, you would need multiple treatments, anywhere from three to eight sessions," Tkach said. "Even then, you would typically get a smudged look, and never get perfect skin."
Tkach added some patients opt for surgical removal of skin and their tattoos. That often leaves scarring. Even skin grafts leave a patient with a patched appearance.
Dr. Michael Gold of Gold Skin Care Center in Nashville, Tenn., said newer laser technology removes 85 to 95 percent of a tattoo. The Q-switched laser, he said, is the only laser system capable of efficient tattoo removal, and advised anyone interested in the process to learn what sort of laser their doctor uses. The Q-switched laser works for most colors and types of pigments, though yellow may require additional treatments. Other treatments, such as dermabrasion, have fallen out of usage because of increased scarring.
"There are tons of lasers used for skin, but for tattoo removal, we need a laser to go deep enough and quickly enough to get the pigments in the skin," Gold said.
Gold said the process left minimal scarring, and pain could be controlled with local anesthetics. Some tattoos may be removed in two or three sessions while others may require 10. The permanent make-up type tattoos on the face are the hardest to remove. Gold added patients with that type of body art should seek an experienced tattoo removal specialist. Tattoo removal for a small piece of body art may cost $50 to $100 per visit. Larger and more complicated tattoos may cost between $100 and $200.
Reasons for tattoo removal given to Gold by patients include: not wanting it after receiving it on a dare, a reminder of a failed relationship and difficulty finding a job while wearing a visible tattoo. He said tattoo removal products sold over-the-counter offer little results, while skin bleaching can be painful.
Tony Stinnett of In-Skin Studio of Paducah said he does not know how effective commercial tattoo removal products are. With inquiries for the products from customers, he is considering becoming a distributor. Meanwhile, with no products for tattoo removal, he often covers an unwanted tattoo on a client with a new design.
"You really need to think about your tattoo, because it is for life," Stinnett said. "I can do stencil work that is temporary. A customer can wear it for a few days. A lot of time, they don't want it."
Gold said tattoo removal is far more expensive than getting the tattoo, and advised patients not to get a tattoo with the thought of getting it removed later. With pain and scarring potential, he warns a person with a new tattoo could be sorry for life.

GENEVA — A shooting in southern Switzerland has left three women dead and two men wounded, and raised questions about how a troubled suspect was able to go on a rampage with an old military rifle.
The suspect, a 33-year-old unemployed man living on disability payments, fired about 20 shots Wednesday night in the village of Daillon, authorities in the canton of Valais said yesterday.
He opened fire from his apartment and pursued people in the street, police said. Armed with a Swiss military rifle and a handgun, he then threatened to shoot the officers sent in to stop him, police said.
"The shooter pointed his weapon at our colleagues, so they had to open fire to neutralize him, to avoid being injured themselves," police spokesman Jean-Marie Bornet told Swiss radio.
The suspect, whom police did not identify, was arrested and taken to a hospital with serious wounds.
Guns are popular among the Swiss — the Alpine country has at least 2.3 million weapons among a population of less than 8 million. Many rural areas have gun clubs, with children as young as 10 taking part in shooting competitions.
The suspect was using a military rifle that was once standard issue in the Swiss army, interim Police Chief Robert Steiner said.
Prosecutor Catherine Seppey said the suspect was unemployed and had been receiving psychiatric care since at least 2005.
The victims were three women ages 32, 54 and 79 who died at the scene, and two injured men, ages 33 and 63, who were taken to a hospital, Seppey said.

Batman Month – "The Court of Owls"
Wednesday, July 18th, 2012This is it, the last week. Only a few more days until "The Dark Knight Rises" is released in theaters, two if you plan on attending a midnight showtime. To continue our celebration of our love of Batman, we've looked at some great introductory stories that any Batman fan can appreciate.
Batman has been a staple of American pop culture for going on 70 years now, and in that time, he has been handled by numerous writers and artists and creators. In any Batman story, he is presented as one of three different archetypes of characters, and we've examined two of the three so far:
First we looked at Batman the vigilante, working outside the law in the yearlong murder mystery The Long Halloween.
Then, we examined Batman the superhero with multiple allies and an extended comic history in Hush.
This week, our second to last story is one of particular interest because it's the newest of the ones we've looked at and it the completion of it only happened exactly one week ago.
Today, we're examining the first part of Batman: The Court of Owls, only half of the nearly yearlong story that jump started Batman's new adventures in the DC 52. In this story, we examine Batman the detective, as his city is taken away from him.
Batman: The Court of Owls
"…My view is, when it comes to Gotham, you don't know it, brother. It knows you. And the moment you think otherwise, the moment you get too comfortable…that's when it stabs you in the back. Because above everything, Gotham is…a mystery." – Lt. Harvey Bullock
Just when you think Batman has a handle on everything, his city betrays him to another.
I've been keeping a close eye on this series all year long, ever since DC decided to restart their entire line of comics and do a brand new Batman book. When all new 52 series were announced, there were multiple Batman comics being put out at once. So what set this one apart from the others? And what continues to make this one of the best comics being published now?
And I'm not just discussing superhero; I'm talking comic books of all varieties.
In the first issue, as a jailbreak causes some of his worst villains to be freed, Batman ponders to himself the nature of Gotham through a newspaper poll. Once a week, they'll ask a citizen of Gotham what they believe Gotham to be. You answer with the framed answer "Gotham is…". The answers vary from "damned" to "cursed", "villainous", "a losing game", "Two-Face", "Killer Croc", "Batman", and "Batman's City".
The quote leading off is from police Lieutenant Harvey Bullock, as he and Batman examine a crime scene where a John Doe is found impaled to the wall. See, what begins as a typical Batman murder mystery turns into something more.
As it turns out, Batman doesn't own Gotham City like he believed. Bruce Wayne comes to realize this as he's thrown from the top of Wayne Tower, the largest structure in Gotham City, with his attacker leaping out after him.
These two keystone moments kick off the momentous "Court of Owls" storyline, written by rising comics superstar Scott Snyder. Recently, in the last few years, many of Snyder's books have been top sellers
or award winning. His independent series, "American Vampire", has re-established a creepy place for vampires in the modern world. I already plan on delving into it for the first time and sharing my discoveries here in a few weeks. It's one that I've heard great things about and need to check out.
What makes Snyder such a great writer is his ability to weave story plot points throughout the entirety of his issues without you noticing. Since comics should primarily be remembered as a visual medium, it's easy to forget about that and just write a superhero story. No, that's not enough for Snyder.
I've already read this story three times through, and each time I do, I notice something else, maybe something in the background or a detail on a suit. A new addition to the tale.
Even from the beginning, the knives that Batman and Lt. Bullock pull out of the victim have a symbol of an owl on them. If you read this issue all by itself, it might be something you miss. But as you read further and further, you notice that all the weapons that The Talon uses have these.
"What is a Talon?" you might be asking.
The Talon is the enforcer for The Court, their silent assassin responsible for hurling Bruce Wayne out of a building and surviving the fall himself.
Snyder introduces us to a truly terrifying foe, as slowly, Batman puts all of the pieces together and discovers that for years, going on centuries, The Court of Owls has ruled Gotham. What started out as a mere children's rhyme, in the same vein as "Ring Around the Rosey" or "Pattycake", "The Court of Owls" was a nursery rhyme that all of Gotham's children know. Yet, their presence is very real.
Still, trying to weave in threads of a story a year in the making is impossible unless you have a strong artistic partner. Greg Capullo has been drawing the Batman series for the entirety of its run, but I'm not the only one in saying that I was a little concerned in his transfer as permanent artist. For years, Capullo was the artist on Spawn, and of course, it was totally cheesy and a little overdone at times. Not completely without it's merits, but not nearly as great as his Batman work.
Whatever he did in between his time drawing Spawn and picking up the pencil for Batman comics was a massive change. His artwork has come alive and is the perfect fit. It's animated and full of expression, however, when it comes to the darkness of Gotham's alleyways and the dread that is needed for new Batman villains, he creates that as well.
Don't believe me? Look at the motorcycle chase in the second issue or look at the entirety of issue #5, as Batman has to survive the trials of the Court's underground maze running through the city. As you read the issue, you literally have to turn the book around to keep up with the story. While this may seem like a gimmick, because of Capullo's intense pencils and distorted panels, it creates a downward spiral that takes Batman's sanity away. Almost as if it's drawing you in.
So, what threat is The Court of Owls?
It's true, and it's been stated, that Batman has one of the best rogue gallery of villains in modern storytelling today. I think maybe a follow-up, 2nd place would be Spider-Man's foes, but standing at the top of the pile would be Batman's.
So, how do you follow up on greats like The Joker or The Scarecrow or Catwoman or Mr. Freeze?
Snyder and Capullo, working meticulously, have crafted a group of villains that fits so perfectly in the Batman universe, you almost feel like they truly have been there for years on end.
Again, I think this series answers the problems that many comic fans have. How do you acknowledge what came before without ignoring the present?
Snyder entwines the Court into the very fabric of Gotham. What this story offers us, besides a grand Batman adventure, is a history of Gotham's creation, one that stretches back centuries. Batman might not be enough to stop them It's definitely not enough to be contained in this story.
The Court continues their rein.
Added Note: This past weekend, at San Diego Comic Con, a special gift awaited everyone that attended the Batman Panel that talked about the upcoming stories in the next year or so…
"Beware the Court of Owls, that watches all the time
Ruling Gotham from a shadowed perch, behind granite and lime
They watch you at your hearth, they watch you in your bed
Speak not a whispered word of them or they'll send the Talon for your head."
Next Week: I think you'll all still be set for more Batman excitement, so we'll take a look at Batman's new origins in Batman: Earth One.

"Nice stay in Jaipur"Reviewed by a Hotels.com guest on Jan 29, 2013
We stayed here for 1 night and it satisfied our needs. The beds were VERY comfortable, room was nicely appointed. We were upgraded to a room with a jacuzzi outside, but we did not use it as we couldnt get the water warm enough. Bathroom and closet space were spacious. Breakfast buffet was pretty good. Would stay here again.

"Attentive and attention to detail"
The hotel was wonderful and the entire staff were attentive and polite. It had great food and bar. Close to town. The view is not great and the bed was hard, but overall a great value. I also had laundry done while staying in this hotel and they did an outstanding job pressing my clothes.Genuine Hotels.com guest review

"Incredible Experience! Bonus for couples"
Beautiful place to stay--highly recommended!! Rooms are fantastic, spotless, modern, and fun design. Service was top notch. We stayed here during a 2-week vacation in India. We wish we could have stayed here longer. It was such a pleasant respite from the craziness and dirtiness outside (not to mention the other hotels we've stayed at).

"Fantastic Hotel!!!"
We LOVED this hotel and didn't want to leave. EVERYONE was VERY eager to please us and make our stay more comfortable. I only say the surrounding area wasn't comfortable b/c no part of Jaipur seemed nice.Genuine Expedia guest review
"Beware of..."
I found this hotel to be in a good surrounding neighborhood and relatively close in proximity to the city center, good points indeed. However, there are some major drawbacks to staying here, one of the major one being the cleanliness of the room in general. I caught on several occasions other people`s hair in my bed, bathroom, chair, etc. I was not […] impressed at all by the hotel general hygiene standards. The hotel staff were friendly but were not capable of performing my checkout in a timely and accurate manner. It took really about 30 minutes to checkout and I was shortchanged substantially, when I mentioned this the staff apologized that all the hotels calculators were not working (unbelievably really) and I had to use my own calculator on my iphone to work out my change. Also, the hotels charges for taxi services is about 2 to 3 times what it should be. I would stay elsewhere, cannot recommend at all. I was really disappointed throughout my stay.

"A good hotel to cover Jaipur"
Had a decent stay at Lemon Tree Premier. Unfortunately due to the construction of the Metro infrastructure in the nearby area the approach to the hotel is very bad. Specially currently when its the monsoon season and its raining everyday in Jaipur. The Hotel is a short distance from all the major bazaars. The Hawa Mahal & City Palace is also very close […] by. Other locations like the Amer Fort & The Jaighar Fort are not very far either. Chowki Dhani is a bit far but that cant be helped as its on the outskirts of Jaipur. Facilities provided by the hotel are good. The restaurant is big and they server a good breakfast buffet which is generally included in the room stay. The staff at the restaurant was very helpful and quick to respond. The only negative was that they didnt provide a floor mat/towel in the bathroom for a couple of days which led to the entire bathroom getting wet. This was taken care of without any complaints but was an inconvenience for a couple of days. Read moreGenuine Expedia guest review
"Satisfactory Overall"
Service was poor, staff not prompt, location was good but did not have any places to eat around the hotelGenuine Hotels.com guest review
"A value for money"
The rooms were good and comfortable. The view outside was nothing attractive though. We used the roof top swimming pool as well, which was decently maintained. The breakfast buffet was amazing and lots of variety from continental, live-egg and south indian-counters, curries etc.Genuine Hotels.com guest review

"Fantastic stay at GoldenTulip"
Golden Tulip: One of the most comfortable stay we ever had. Delux rooms are just fantastic in the offered price range. Well Baby was happy so was the Mom because of the overall hygiene in the room. Thank you Expedia.Genuine Expedia guest review
"very nice place"
very helpfull staff we were there during december 2011, and the room was cold. We could not heat it up, with the split unit, it could only make cold, at we did not need that. We had a small heater installed, but that was nut suffient, and it was noisy. the hotel should concider to make it possible to heat the room up, during cold timesGenuine Hotels.com guest review
"Golden Tulip, comfortable hotel & courteous staff"
Nice place to stay at a comfortable price. The restaraunt is very well done and has an excellent breakfast with superb variety. The entire staff was very nice to us, from the check-in lady to concierge to the restaraunt staff. I wish the location was a little amidst the hustle-bustle of Jaipur and it would have been perfect.Genuine Hotels.com guest review
"Ask for what you are entitled to"
Our package says we have breakfast and free wi-fi but the front desk tried very hard not to give it to us even it is written clearly in the form. They even argued that free wi-fi means free but not the internet connection ! Amazing. And the breakfast as well. We got it after some debate. I am on vacation, not a business trip, I really don't want to […] do that. And the hotel is close to nothing, no restaurants, no shops near by so do exepct to have taxi or rickshaw when going out. Like most cities in India, walk with your own feet is not an option. Boht b'fast and dinner buffet is good, especially the dinner buffet, incredibly good value. Room is adequate and comfortable, only the aircon is a bit noisy. The outlook of this hotel is not 4-star, more 3 star like but the rooms and restaurants are quite ok.

"Golden Tulip Jaipur: a very pleasant stay."
We stayed at the hotel for two nights in May 2011. Our booking included a two way transfer and we informed the hotel of our train details in advance. Despite arriving two hours late and well after midnight a car was waiting for us and we were in our room in less than half an hour after arrival at the station. The room was very comfortable, spacious, […] comfortable and spotlessly clean. Breakfast included a choice of local and continental dishes and probably the best cup of coffee we had. Dinner was equally nice, with a varied menu. Staff were helpful and flexible regarding check-out time which was much appreciated. The hotel can arrange taxi's from a number of firms and Tuc-tucs can be found just across the road. A very pleasant stay in quite a hectic city. Read moreGenuine Hotels.com guest review
"Dejlig tagterrasse."
Hotellet havde en dejlig tagterrasse med pool og servering af aftensmad. Den var meget hyggelig.Genuine Hotels.com guest review
"Great relaxing, comfortable hotel"
Great relaxing hotel. Rooms were clean and very comfortable. A small shortcoming was the fact that there was only a rain shower and not a handheld extra. Breakfast was very good with plenty of Indian as well as continental options. Same holds for the buffet dinner which was around 500 INR (8 euro) and also good to have. The roof top swimming pool was […] small, yet nice to swim in. Some pigeons are on the side of the pool drinking water, but we still found the pool to be clean. There are 6 sun beds around the pool, so if you are with a group that's not enough, yet it was quite when we were there. So we had enough. The gym was good. All cardio machines as well as a few resistance machine. Enough to have a full body work out. Unfortunately we didn't have time to make use of it. There is also a spa, but it didn't look very attractive to me. Since we only did sightseeing during the day, I cannot commend that much on location. It seems to be in a residential area. There is a cinema very close buy and to reach the shopping area on MI road you need to take an auto rickshaw; it's about 4 km away from the hotel. All in all a great hotel to relax and rest after a day of sightseeing. Read moreGenuine Expedia guest review

2011年8月12日に1泊家族で泊まりました。家族6人で合計4部屋を借りました。とにかくすばらしい滞在でした。レセプションの人のサービスから、レストランのサービスまで笑顔があり、よく気がついてくれました。 お部屋も広く、清潔で備品も揃っていました。バスルームも広く、シャワールームとバスタブが別れていて便利でした。 レストランの利用は宿泊者だと20%オフになる得点もありました。 食事は、夕食と朝食ともにブッフェでしたが、種類も多くインド料理だけでなく西洋の料理もあり、美味しかったです。 他に4つ星5つ星ホテルにインドで泊まりましたが、比べものにならない程このホテルのサービスは良く、部屋も最高でした。 料金も大変お得です。 ジャイプールに泊まる方は是非おすすめです。Genuine Expedia guest review

text: The Gene doll debuted at Toy Fair in February of 1995. The immediate response by collectors was a positive one, with many rejoicing at a new doll finally breaking a decades-old monopoly on the fashion doll world. Rabid on-line attention to Gene convinced Ashton-Drake, the original manufacturers, to continue and expand the line. Genes philosophy of hands-on play and out-of-the-box, personalized collecting and became the incentive for countless doll lovers. A vast cottage industry of private designers, at every level of accomplishment, made and traded in, among other things, meticulously sewn, miniature, twentieth century dress. The story-driven dolls and separate fashions became a standard within the doll world with numerous like-sized fashion dolls from other companies following. At the same time, new dolls within the Gene line were being introduced, first as characters in the 2000 book Gene Marshall, Girl Star, and then as dolls from Ashton-Drake. Over a period of ten years more than a million dolls and an equal number of costumes have been sold worldwide. Now, following the announcement at Toy Fair 2006 that Jason Wu and his team would produce Mel Odoms Gene, the future looks brighter than ever for this most beloved character. Under the tutelage of Jason Wu, a new dawn is upon Gene Marshall, girl star. Miss Marshall occasionally resides in New York, although her heart will always remain in Hollywood. Change is proof of life, without it, were fossils. Even dolls are subject to this law, even movie stars. Even movie star dolls. This firstcollection of the new Gene®, or as we like to call her, Gene® DeLuxe, is a celebration of the good fortune and happenstance that brought two creative men together, to conspire and rethink what has become a classic in American fashion dolls, Gene® Marshall. Mel Odom

I thought about the money going into an "expansion" of a building and thought it's a little high. Given that it's no secret that NSAL is just a cover to tax write offs and pay friends of friends. Do a little research on costs of actual animal shelters. New shelters and not just expansions to this terrible one. These are the first few that come up and they might not be that great either. I'm sure everyone from NSAL employees to construction companies will be making out on Howies friends who donated and few "fans".
7,199-square-foot facility that would house 50 dog kennels, 10 more than the existing shelter; and 41 cat cages, 17 more than the current facility. It would be built from durable, low-maintenance materials and would incorporate a variety of energy-saving measures. "two experienced local contractors" to get cost estimates for the facility and that the estimated construction cost was $1.8 million to $1.9 million, or $257 per square foot. He noted that the average cost per square foot of the Henrico, King George and Amherst shelters was $256.
$12.4 million when all is said and done, opened in November after more than a decade in development, as an appropriate site proved elusive, and the venue that ultimately was selected posed a range of challenges during design and construction.
The new shelter features a $272,000 medical suite to handle lab work and on-*site spay and neuter procedures, as well as everything from teeth cleaning and laceration repairs to eye and limb removal. There are habitat rooms where cats can socialize with a view of Aquatic Park; fenced* animal play areas; and indoor*-outdoor kennels. Its decked out in Crate and Barrel furniture the company donated $24,000 worth thanks to volunteer efforts and includes a volunteer lounge, community training room, public restrooms, laundry room and kitchens with sanitizing dishwashers.

Greetings, kind New Albany citizens. This is the newest edition of the New Albany High School News. Monday began our first full week of school. This week New Albany students elected a homecoming court for the 2012 homecoming week.

Between stepping around the cardboard boxes in her new home and sniffing the overflowing vases of flowers in her new office, Dr. Barbara Childers McMillin's first day as president of Blue Mountain College has been "amazing."

30 Days to a Greener Diet - Day 5
Remember when you thought polenta was weird? And then it started showing up on menus at all the chic restaurants? By the time it was served at a post-Oscar bash a couple of years ago, it was available in conventional supermarkets from coast to coast.
Well, get ready for a whole new list of some of the oldest grains known to mankind that is, up until about 60 years ago, when Big Ag took over our food supply and "simplified" our choices. Theyre incredibly healthy, hearty and so easy to use that even a newbie to cooking can tackle them.
Here are our favorites, with links to delicious recipes:
Bulgur: This is a whole wheat product that cooks quickly and is high in fiber. It's popular in Middle Eastern cuisine.
Easy Tabbouleh Recipe
Wheat berries: An unprocessed whole grain wheat product, wheat berries need more time to cook but are highly nutritious.

text: Home eMed eMed Blog Six business plan mistakes that will irk venture capitalists RSS Feed Link Six business plan mistakes that will irk venture capitalists Posted by: Deanna Pogorelc on March 01, 2012 What's more important for a new healthcare business: a business plan or a PowerPoint deck? Should you include a valuation of the company in the business plan? Rick Smith, co-founder of Crosscut Ventures, offers advice on how to write a business plan and outlines some of the most common mistakes venture capitalists see in pitches from entrepreneurs: Spending too much time on a 40-page business plan rather than a 15-page PowerPoint deck. Creating a strong, impressionable deck is a much better use of time. Hiring a consultant. "We're looking for people who understand their business and can write about it," Smith says. "We're not looking for perfect business plans or perfect pitch decks. We're looking for folks who are passionate about their business." Making the deck all about the product and not about the people behind it. "We're investing in management teams, not ideas or products," he says. Projecting unrealistic goals. A deck should have revenue projections, but if they are too high, investors will think the CEO lacks basic business sense. Underestimating competition. Claiming there's a huge market for a product but not much competition isn't going to fly. Investors will find out who's doing what when they do their own research, so hearing it straight from the CEO helps them see that you are realistic about the market. Including a valuation of the company in the deck or business plan. The market will eventually determine this, so don't try to do it yourself, Smith says. 10 Comments No Comments to Display Add a Comment Name: Email: Comment: Submit

HOW LONG WILL IT TAKE?One more of the frequently asked questions concerns the amount of time a restoration and/or repair takes. Most restorations and/or repairs take two to three months but some may require up to one year to finish. The reason lies in the materials and techniques used in the repair, as well as the number of steps needed, i.e., reverse original gluing, cleaning, remove stains and/or deterioration (prolonged soaking if necessary), adhere (gluing), in-fill (fill cracks, chipping, etc), moldings (create piece if missing), sculpting (in a lot of cases in-fill and sanding a couple of times), texturizing, priming, painting and glazing.
CONSERVATION METHOD?If it is a piece that is to be preserved in as close to the original condition as possible, such as a museum would do, then it is important to stabilize the piece by gluing the piece back together with a reversible adhesive and replacing the missing pieces, where necessary, with a neutral colored, reversible patching material. This allows the piece to be taken apart again easily for further study without inflicting further damage.
HISTORICAL OR NON-HISTORICAL?Before attempting any type of restoration and/or repair on your treasured broken piece, it is essential to place the piece in the category of choice: historical or non-historical.A piece needs to be placed in either category so a direction can be given for the correct method to be applied so it can be brought to the desired state. We emphasize this categorizing, as once the non-historical method is chosen, in most cases, more damage is done that is irreversible. Most pieces fall into this category.
MISSING PIECES?Pieces such as figurines having broken arms, legs, flowers, etc. that are not repaired, result in the pieces get lost and is very important to save all the pieces. New pieces can be fabricated to replace these parts but the cost is higher than that of regluing the original piece. When one has tried to glue the piece themselves before seeking professional help, they may cause a lot more damage to the piece. The cost of the repair is higher to cover the cost of reversing the original gluing as well as for the extra damage done to the piece.
IS PIECE MADE OF MULTIPLE MATERIALS?If a piece consists of several types of material such as a clock in a ceramic case, you may have one restorer deal with the whole restoration or you may take it to the different restorers youself. If you choose us to do the whole process, expect to pay for the time it takes to take it apart and put it back together again.

LG claims world's greenest LCD
If eco-friendly features replace the endless stream of thinnest, smallest, and lightest "in the world" claims on the technology market, we'll be very happy campers. And for that reason alone it's worth mentioning the latest boast from LG about its new computer monitor.
The Korean company says its "Flatron W2252TE" is "the world's most energy-efficient monitor," according to our cousins across the pond at SmartPlanet. The 22-inch widescreen LCD, which is headed for the U.K. market, supposedly uses 40 fewer watts to operate than do comparable monitors--an energy saving of … Read more

Blue Marlin
Online Reservations
We had heard good things about Blue Marlin. And we certainly were not disappointed. We started with the appetizer version of the shrimp and grits. It was phenomenal. It was kind of like the best red beans and rice ever - but with grits. My wife got the salmon with a light cheese sauce and blackened scallops and shrimp. I had chicken with goat cheese, spinach, and sundried tomatoes. We had grit cakes, garlic mashed potatoes, and roasted yukon gold potatoes. And then for dessert I had the creme brûlée cheesecake. Everything was incredible. The server was outstanding, always keeping our drinks full and table cleared. It is a nice place for couples or groups.
Shrimp and Grits were a hit. Beer was cold food was great
The salads we had were very good. It took a while for our beverages to be delivered from the bar. The food however was served promptly. The restaurant was very busy even though it was after nine pm. We found the noise level a bit high but the crowd in the restaurant apparently was enjoying the evening. The peach dessert was served promptly and was very good.
Excellent restaurant-service, food, atmosphere-definitely lives up to the positive ratings it receives.
For the second year, we had a great family meal with our son as he returned to USC. Lot's of great options and for a family from the north lots of fantastic low country specials. The shrimp and grits were wonderful and the gumbo was great. Thanks for a great meal!
We have been going to the Blue Marlin for years and it is always excellent--great food, great service. Always enjoy the seafood; fresh, expertly prepared. Nice wine list, creative cocktails... Definitely one of my favorite restaurants.
Food is still good - She Crab soup may be best in SC; entrees were all good - not great. BLT salad seemed to have shrunk - and lettuce chopped to fine to eat with a fork. Bread was "crusty", but, maybe we just got a bad piece. Service was outstanding; décor getting a little dated - maybe due for a refresh. Still, Blue Marlin is one of my favorite restaurants in Cola, and I always recommend to folks from out of town.
First time visit and I wondered why I hadn't come before. My husband and I are in our 50's. So many restaurants that we frequented when we were younger are closed (I'm from Charlotte). Coming here we enjoyed the darker atmosphere of restaurants from the 70's and 80's which is a rare find. And to top that the food and service were excellent. I'm not implying that younger restaurant goers would not find it equally as appealing. But it is a gem for my generation.
We went to the Blue Marlin on our date night and were very pleasantly surprised. The hostess seated us promptly, our waitress was phenomenal and the food was excellent. Our glasses were filled constantly and our dinner arrived quickly. We thoroughly enjoyed our meal, as well as desert. I highly recommend The Blue marlin, its a top notch restaurant and we will be returning soon.
We went there upon recommendation of a friend, and we were not disappointed. Excellent restaurant in every way.
My experiences with the Blue Marlin over a period of several years indicates that the food and service are consistently excellent.
Took the significant other out for date night. Great atmosphere. I had their "famous" shrimp and grits. I had better grits at waffle house and shrimp was not done. Significant other had crab cakes which were awsome.
The Blue Marlin's staff was extremely knowledgeable of the food and drink menu items and they were polite, courteous, and attentive to my needs. I definitely recommend this restaurant to anyone in the mood for low country cuisine.
My husband and I went last night for the time and it was excellent food and ambience!
It was a quiet Sunday evening but still plenty of patrons. We felt like we were the only ones there, awesome service!!! The food was fantastic!!
I find the Blue Marlin a delightful place to dine. The food is consistent - high quality. The reservation time is honored. The service is great. I like the atmosphere, it is relaxing. I highly recommend this place. They seem to have their act together. I think the prices are reasonable.
I took my VP here and he was very impressed. I scored some points with this restaurant. Our meal was on the table within 15 minutes of ordering. The food was superb, the wait staff was very quick getting us everything that we asked for. This was my first trip here but will not be my last.
The 2 of us wanted a quiet evening with great food. The restaurant is so popular and apparently used to turning the tables several times on a Fri. night. We wanted to dine at a slower pace. Once our waitress understood that, all was well. Because they had rushed things at the beginning & we had some misunderstanding, they were quick to adapt. They also gave us a drink and a dessert on the house. The menu has so many and varied selections, itI was hard to choose. But both of us were quite happy with our choices. We would definitely return when we are back there.
The food was excellent. The service was adequate. The noise level was very loud. It was hard to carry on a conversation with the person next to you or across the table
When we moved from New Jersey, a neighbor who travels to Columbia gave us a gift card for the Blue Marlin. This was our first taste of grits (shrimp and grits appetizer). Our waiter reasoned that, if we never had grits, then we likely had not had collards either, so he brought us a bowl. The waiter's explanation of how each was prepared enhanced the delicious dishes. It was an introduction to southern graciousness and local favorites. A thoroughly enjoyable experience! We'll be back......y'all!
We were at a convention and wanted to avoid waiting in line and so I found online reservations and made one (so easy!) The staff was nice. The waiter was super professional. He split our main dish for two of us and then split our bill easily. The portions were quite large--the "side salad" is almost a meal which makes the price very reasonable. We had fried green tomatoes appetizer (really good!) 3 salads...all were reported yummy and looked appetizing (I didn't personally taste one) 1 crab soup (the description was misleading but it tasted like a crab chowder and I LOVED it) Mushroom ravioli (was beautifully done and healthier style than i expected. I would have preferred a creamy sauce but it was delicious) We all were pleased.
This is a place that we had heard people talk about so we decided to try it. we were already nearby for our initial plans of the evening. We had a nice time and enjoyed our food. The only thing is I felt a little rushed. Without an appetizer or a dessert things just moved so fast. Our server was very nice but she spoke extremely fast. I mean, I'm a natural fast talker but I had to ask her to repeat the special because I just didn't catch it all the first time. We dressed semi- casual... Still felt sort of over dressed compared to other guest we passed. Basically it's a good place to drop in and get some good food and drinks (though slightly overpriced at $9) but if you're looking for a really romantic date night, I'd look elsewhere.
Heard good things about this restaurant and was not disappointed. Everyone loved their meals and wait staff was excellent.
From the friendly hostesses to the attentive and amazing server, The Blue Marlin never disappoints. I love the homestyle, southern, comfort food. This time my crew and I sat on the beautiful patio (which has had romantic hanging lights added since last time I was here). The patio is a nice quiet change from the lively dinning room and was perfect to enjoy the warm fall weather and some wine.
very loud, unable to carry on a normal conversation. Loud music causes people to talk louder. That is your only problem, however I must tell you that I am 75 years old which means I enjoy quiet, romantic settings. We just cannot find that any more. This will not stop me from dinning at Blue Marlin - I would just enjoy the atmosphere more if it were quieter. Everything else is PERFECT!!!
I fully enjoyed the experience as did my wife. I made reservations online and mentioned it was our anniversary and both the hostess and server wished us a happy anniversary. thanks again.
The quality and service is exceptional. When we visit we always make a visit to Blue Marlin and have never been disappointed. The food is outstanding.
We where driving from Cleveland Ohio and wanted to stop in Columbia S.C for dinner looked at Yelp for a Seafood restaurant and saw Blue Marlin high review we decided to make reservation, the food was excellent, service was great I had the grilled salmon and probably was the best I had, my wife had soup and crab cake and she said it was one of the best she had, I definitely recommend this restaurant and can't wait to drive thru again to eat at Blue Marlin.
Great food and service. The rib eye steak I had was so tender. Loved it. This was a birthday dinner for my wife, who had a great meal also!
We were in town for a business meeting and chose this restaurant because it was close to our hotel. What a great find. The oyster and shrimp skillet was awesome.
We arrived late for our reservation and the staff was very understanding. Our food was overall very good- pimento cheese appetizer was delicious. The kids loved the hamburgers. Service was quick and eager to please.
The service was excellent, and the teriyaki salmon with Yukon gold potatoes a green beans were delicious. Everyone in South Carolina should make their way to The Blue Marlin!
Everytime we are in Columbia we dine at Blue Marlin. The shrimp and grits are amazing and the martinis and wine cannot be beat!
Our first visit to Columbia included lunch with friends at Blue Marlin. We had a wonderful waiter, Brett. He made us feel right at home! Even brought a sample of Adluh grits for us to try before we ordered. The grits are great! We had great bloody mary's, and our lunches were fabulous. Salmon, tilapia, shrimp and grits were all very Yummy! After lunch we took a walk, came back to Blue Marlin and sat outdoors for iced tea. What a fun experience. We will so recommend it! And will return soon! Thanks so much!
Blue Marlin never dissapoints and it didn't last night! From food to service- it was wonderful!
If you are in mood for some southern specialties this the place. Great shrimp and grits., fried green tomatoes. Also traditional menu
Only issue was that we were near the bar and under a TV. A little louder than I expected. Food and service were great.....I'd go back. My date who is from Montana experienced shrimp and grits for the first time ever.....she loved it!
We love this restaurant and recommend it always -- we even recommended to a couple we met in town earlier in day and saw them at dinner -- they loved the food. Our side's were cold and did have to send them back; but there was no issue when we did and waiter apologized. Quality of fish is always outstanding!
We were visiting from Florida for the SC-Fl football game, and went to the Blue Marlin based on recommendations from friends. We were very pleased with the food and especially with the service. It was a great evening in a great town. The SC fans have always been very gracious to us. The best SEC city to visit.
We live in south Georgia and come back for football games. A Columbia friend recommended the Blue Marlin. I will always be grateful. food, service, atmosphere -- all excellent. Any place which starts you off with collard greens cooked just right has to be good.
The food here is fantastic and I would definitely recommend this restaurant to anyone in the area!!
I brought my corporate bosses from out of town because I knew they would be in for a treat and afterwards they could not stop talking about their experience and the food. From the appetizers to dessert all was served with style and great presentations. Our waitresses Megan made sure we had no needs and she was very attentive. Her Menu recommendations were spot on even the choice of wine. What a wonderful evening we had!!!
Enjoyed dinner with the girls. Great service and good food.
My wife and I took my in-laws to Blue Marlin for their fifty-fifth wedding anniversary. The evening weather made the location perfect for dining outside. The waiter was attentive and appropriately entertaining. He had no problem with an unusual request for dividing an entree for my in-laws. She loves salmon; he loves shrimp and scallops. They wanted a shrimp and scallop covered salmon entree divided according to their likes. Wisely, the waiter suggested a side of additional shrimp to make my father-in-law's dinner portion a better size than the otherwise garnish would have provided. Unfortunately, the evening was marred with a homeless derelict approached asking for money and stating that he'd just been released from federal prison.
We had a very good experience dining at the Blue Marlin. We were greeted pleasantly, seated promptly, service was friendly and quick. Dinner selections were varied and all were tempting. We had the swordfish special with a glass of chardonnay. We recommend this for a fine dinner
Went on a afternoon football Saturday night and the evening went off without a hitch. They were very busy but neither the food nor service suffered. The food was delicious as always.
We really enjoyed our first experience at Blue Marlin. I really liked the music selection and it was at the perfect volume. The food and dim lights were made for a perfect date.
Growing up on the coast, I'm something of a seafood snob. Usually, I won't go to a seafood restaurant more than an hour inland. Sunday night, though, we were in Columbia, and looking for a place for a good dinner. Friends had recommended the Blue Marlin in the past, so against policy, we tried it, and had an enjoyable evening. The atmosphere and service were fine, there were several groups having a pleasant time, as we did. The menu was adequate,although slightly limited. The food was good "coastal comfort" food. Nothing dramatic, but seemed as if it would be reliably good. We would certainly go again.
We have been twice. The first time my wife ordered the Firecracker Flounder. I did not. We came back 6 months later when we were in town so that I could get it!
Blue Marlin is consistently good for lunch or dinner. I eat there often. On this occasion two of us each had excellent entrée salads, one served with a crab cake or one with salmon; both salads were deliciously dressed and both fish dishes were served with excellent sauces that went well with the salad dressings. As one might expect, the menu heavily favors fish dishes with a southern emphasis. The restaurant is usually very busy, but not overly noisy, and the staff keep up well with service. And I have never felt rushed here. PS They have some killer desserts that easily serve more than one.

Mendel RepRap Group Meetup
June 2, 2010 by spoonfork · Leave a Comment
This is a meetup to discuss the possibility of starting a working group to build Mendel RepRap in HackerspaceKL
From http://reprap.org/wiki/Main_Page:
RepRap is a free desktop 3D printer capable of printing
plastic objects. Since many parts of RepRap are made from plastic and
RepRap can print those parts, RepRap can be considered a self-replicating
machine – one that anyone can build given time and materials.
The purpose of this meeting is to start a group to work on a Mendel reprap. - ie be involved in building one and then later with
the knowledge – build their own.
Besides learning how to build a machine that can build itself (and other parts, of course), members will gain some knowledge of CAD, CADCAM, mechanical engineering and circuitry. All that is needed is to be mechanically inclined (good but not essential), and the desire to override deficiency.
This meeting is open for all. For more information, please refer to the following blog:
We also have a Google group at http://groups.google.com/group/MAYReprap
