Hot answers tagged intellectual-property
I am not a lawyer and this is not legal advice. These are things I've heard many times over and have no reason to doubt.
Game mechanics cannot be copyrighted or protected in any fashion.
I could make a game called "Crystallized" that was Bejeweled, in every imaginable way, and as long as I didn't copy the art from Bejeweled (either directly, or by drawing ...
Well, let's talk about intellectual property, since that's really where it seems like your focus is right now. Before I continue, though, I just want to briefly mention that you also want to make sure that you understand where you stand with other aspects of the law as well, things like taxes (Do you have to charge some kind of sales taxes? What sort of ...
Other answers have covered trademarks and copyright pretty well, but do not forget patents. Many game mechanics developed in the early days of gaming are patented. The 2 that I know of are minigames while the main game loads (Ridge Racer), and jump-in multiplayer (Gauntlet). That is why you almost never see these features in any games, even though they are ...
Game mechanics are not subject to intellectual property controls. Names can be trademarked and any game code or assets are subject to copyright protection. There is some legal precedent for going after games that are "close" (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Lexulous) but that was in an Indian court so I know much less about their IP laws (see also: the various ...
You need a lawyer and this is not legal advice.
That said,
being free usually makes no difference at all
"game concepts" usually cannot be subject to copyright, but in many perverted jurisdictions apparently are subject to patents
regardless of being legal or not, remember you can be sued anyway: if you can't afford to defend yourself you'd better play ...
Copyright expiry depends where you live. The simple answer is that they are copyright, and you can get sued. (More likely you'll get a cease-and-desist shutting down development of your game and threatening legal action.)
If you really want a pokemon-style game, create your own unique game world and characters and use those.
Hire a lawyer. The earlier the better -- you should have done it already to draw up contracts concerning who retains what IP if people leave or disagree, et cetera.
See this article on the legal issues related to ad hoc, indie development teams (written by a real lawyer, which I am not, so my advice is not legal advice).
First get yourself a copy of Business and Legal Primer for Game Development. It is an invaluable resource, not just in the legal department. They have a chapter or two on this sort of thing, and it's comprehensive.
If you're in any doubt about the status of things or who will claim ownership, I'd do what Josh Petrie suggests, and right away.
Can I take pictures of things I own and use them in a game as art assets or is that an IP violation?
Usual caveat: I am not a lawyer, this is not legal advice, the relevant laws vary from country to country, city to city, etc.
The basic concepts are these: you own one instance of the truck. You can sell your instance of the truck to someone else (according to the first sale doctrine, which states that the Copyright owner's distribution rights only apply ...
Foreword: Anything related to laws will always be in a gray area, because the case outcome ultimately comes from a handful of people.
Others have accurately pointed out that game code and assets fall under copyright law and that product, company, etc. names fall under trademark law.
However, although others have pointed out that you cannot copyright game ...
I am not a lawyer. This is not legal advice. What follows is a basic overview of the issues that may surround the material you've brought up.
Music: Read the license on your music. You've purchased it for personal use on personal devices, not for distribution. Movies featuring a popular song didn't buy a CD from a store and copy it into their movie; they ...
While I doubt you will find anything that lists games that are in production stages. (The Industry usually remains a bit more tight-lipped about such things than the film industry does)
The rest of what you are looking for is handled relatively nicely by MobyGames
EDIT: Almost forgot, GiantBomb Also has the same sort of Data.
Copyright does not protect the idea for a game, its name or title, or the method or methods for playing it. Nor does copyright protect any idea, system, method, device, or trademark material involved in developing, merchandising, or playing a game. Once a game has been made public, nothing in the copyright law ...
You should consult a lawyer.
It may be possible to do this, depending on the products in question, your legal jurisdiction, the legal jurisdiction(s) in which the products have IP protections, and so on. You're going to need a lawyer to help you unravel all the tangled, varied license legalese though.
You specifically cite the example of laptops, and the ...
Are there any legal ways to acquire the rights to make a derivative video game?
Yes, it's frequently done.
The game is owned by a live company, so how would I contact them correctly and negotiate for the rights to the content?
Find their contact information on the web. Typically with a "Contact Us" page. You're likely not going to find a "Use ...
Depending on your jurisdiction, simply using your title (and perhaps marking it with a ™ symbol) may qualify it for protection as an unregistered trade mark.
The Wikipedia article is pretty short, so let me quote it in its entirety:
An unregistered trade mark is a trademark which does not benefit from the protection afforded to trade marks through ...
Great question, what better way to ask about copyright than through games, which encompass all forms of media and IP.
First off, be aware that an idea cannot be patented.
Second be aware that the copyright depends on the national law you are recommended to adhering as a natural citizen. There are for instance some difference in interpretation of Fair Use in ...
Most of the concept art you're likely familiar with from big names in the industry was produced for a game, while the artist was in the employ of some company. That often means the ownership of the copyright falls to the company itself. It's similar to how all the code I've written while working for my current employer is not mine to keep if I were to leave ...
Copyright protecion lasts for the life of author and 70 years based on the the longest living author if jointly created or if work of corporate authorship, works for hire, or anonymous and pseudonymous works, the shorter of 95 years from publication, or 120 years from creation.
Check out some of the books in the answer to Legal Resources?, specifically Business and Legal Primer for Game Development.
The answers above are all pretty much spot on, unless you're copying something closely, you should be okay.
But, and this is a big but, just because you are doing everything right, it doesn't mean you won't get C&D'd, or be sued. Unfortunately, a lot of business and individuals use the legal system as a bludgeon against competitors and will often issue ...

Eora Journey Prosperity Talk
Thanks For Sharing Your Ideas With Us
Prosperity - a successful, flourishing or thriving condition, especially in financial respects
What does prosperity mean to you?
We asked Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander people who live, work and study in the city about prosperity and what it means to them and to share ideas with us through the Eora Journey – Prosperity Talk.
The City wants to work with Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander people to achieve prosperity as individuals and as communities.The information shared will help us design the Eora Journey Economic Development Plan.
An Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander economic development plan for the City
The City is responding to the strong call for greater economic opportunities within Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander communities in Sydney.
Projects and programs focused on training, jobs and business ownership have made gains in recent years. But there is still more to do.
Data from the latest census shows Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander residents in the City are still experiencing relative levels of disadvantage in important areas such as employment, education and housing.
The City is committed to changing this by working with the community to achieve equity as students, employees and business owners.
An important first step is developing an... Continue reading
Welcome to the Eora Journey
The Eora Journey is the City's major program of projects to celebrate the living culture of Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander communities in Sydney. Eora means 'the people' in the Gadigal language, so the Eora Journey is "the people's journey."
1. An economic development plan
The economic development plan will address the community's access to education and training opportunities as well as issues associated with business investment, enterprise development and employment.
2. Recognition in the public domain
We will work with Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander artists to create 7 major public art projects symbolising the Eora Journey. The projects... Continue reading

Hi, I am a film professional. Originally from Ukraine I moved to New York for 20 years, love my new home city and my new home country. Due to the nature of my work I travel quite often. Prefer to stay at the apartments not hotels and enjoy hosting people at my very charming, clean, beautifully decorated and greatly located place.
Alexandra has completed online and offline ID verification.
It was the first experiencie using this app and I have been very satisfied. The location is great! Just 1 block to subway, a really quiet and safe neighborhood. The pictures shows what it is, Alex was so kindly and concerned that everything was fine during my stay. Definitely, I will return.
The reservation was canceled 64 days before arrival. This is an automated posting.
Alexandra was friendly and accommodating. She made herself available by phone when I was in the cab on the way to NYC from the airport and showed me through her apartment graciously. I would recommend her as a hostess to anyone looking to stay in this neighborhood, for the apartment is cozy, and the location is great. Very near Columbia!
We spent 4 nights at Alexandra's flat and it has been a pleasant experience! The apartment is cozy and spacious, really close to the metro station. Perfect for visiting New York from a not touristic neighbourhood! Alexandra is a very kind and available host!
Alexandra is a very inviting ambiance person, full attentionand very helpfull. It was a real pleasure to meet her. The appartment is quiet and its location in Manhattan is very convenient. Thank you for all that. Regards
The reservation was canceled 17 days before arrival. This is an automated posting.
Alexandra was very welcoming and made me feel right at home. The location was awesome, and the apartment was clean and comfortable. I'd come back in a heartbeat. One of the best things about this location is how close it is to the market, restaurants, and most importantly the subway.
Upon arrival, it was clear that the place was well taken care of and clean. The location was ideal for getting around Manhattan since it was so close to the 1 subway station. We really loved the area. Unfortunately, the internet connection did not work for the entirety of the stay. This made our day to day planning very difficult as we had to go to the Starbucks continually to get wifi service. The host, Alexandra, attempted to resolve the problem, but was not successful in part to her being out of the country and due to what we believe to be problems with the internet company since she stated that the previous guest had the same problem which was resolved in that person's case. Communication was difficult and we were not given any instructions on the check-out procedure (again leading to some departure delays spent in Starbucks). This is in an old building and the bathroom tub/shower needs some repairs. The shower head attachment was cracked and we had troubles keeping it in place. Overall, we must say that although we had issues, the place was in an amazing/safe location.
I booked Alexandra's apartment for my parents' 2-week stay in the city. Alexandra was very nice and helpful. Meeting her to get the keys was easy and she checked in a couple of times to make sure everything was fine. Her apartment is pretty big for NY standards and had everything you need for a brief stay in New York. Location is amazing, because the apartment is two minutes away from the subway and a great supermarket, West Side market. Only caveat: Alexandra only left a relatively small cabinet for my parents to put their clothes in. Because there wasn't really much space in there, they ended up having to leave their clothes in the suitcases, which wasn't that comfortable for 2 weeks. Other than that, I recommend this apartment for anyone who's visiting New York and doesn't want to stay in a touristy area downtown, but get the real New York experience. The kitchen is also very small and doesn't lend itself for cooking big meals. Other than this, thanks Alexandra for the hospitality.
The reservation was canceled 11 days before arrival. This is an automated posting.
Alla is our best guest :) If you do not honour her reservation then you will regret :)
Alla is the perfect guest! She is clean and respectful to other guests. This is her 3rd time and she is always very welcome in my flats. (Actually, one of them is already her flat :)
Alexandra was a perfect guest. She was a charismatic business woman, she was clean and respectful to other guests. She will always welcome in my flats. Thanks Alexandra
My absolutely favorite accommodation in Istanbul, can not be more perfect. I will be back .....thanks to Seyhun for making his property available to me.
Great guests, very nice, clean and tidy. would take them again as guests anytime. you can trust them with your apartment - no worries at all. thank you for everything and please come back again! Tom
Alexandra was friendly, clean and communicative. She was easy to work with and everything went smoothly! I look forward to her return :)
I was Alexandra's guest in winter and past winter in NYC was really extreme -- it seemed I had not leave Russia, my undoubtly native, but too cold country :-) The only thing that conciliated me with hostile weather conditions was Alexandra's apartment that is so cosy! So brilliantly located in terms of all sightseeing destinations (just a walking distance from Central Park and charming area of the river with its outstanding architecture). And of course it's wonderful because of Alexandra herself who is the best guide for New York cultural life one can imagine. So, if you want to get NYC "economy pack" -- an apartment plus the guide who is really helpful. you should choose this without any hesitation.
Alexandra is a lovely person and helpful host. The location near Columbia University is great for getting around Manhatttan. The apartment is comfy and charming.

Following the recent signing of a five year global agreement with New Zealand-based International Telematics Limited (ITL), Vodafone New Zealand has announced that it has notched up over one million machine-to-machine (M2M) connections. As part of the contract signed last week, Vodafone will use its global platform to provide services in markets where International Telematics is established, including Australia and North America. Tony Bacon, Head of M2M at Vodafone New Zealand, commented: 'Although it's relatively straightforward to offer an M2M solution within a single country, being able to scale that solution internationally is where Vodafone's competitive advantage lies. With Vodafone, International Telematics now has the ability to connect to over 580 mobile networks around the world'.

George takes the cake, and the child
7 comments:
George supposedly never had time for his daughter, Lucy. But what about his wife, Eve? They appear to have been married for a long time, and she seems a kind, loving person - so how was it possible for George not to see Lucy?
- 14 March 2010 at 09:05
I think we all thought George was going to be a villan but it turns out he is just a bombastic Grandad, a man used to getting his own way by fair means or foul. I think he thought he had messed up with his daughter, Lucy, and wanted to make amends through Simon by "giving him a good life". Peter has just given him all the ammunition by keep going back to the drink and who says he won't do it again, he is a bit of a loser. I hope this is not the end we see of Anthony Valentine because he has been great and I would like to see him and Eve popping up every now and again like Jack and Connie.

I think it was more to do with Lucy refusing to see George from what i got out of this.
- 14 March 2010 at 13:05
- seapenguin said...
George may well have been right to have his concerns about Peter/Simon, but the way he went about it was downright evil. I'm going to be gutted if he turns out to have gone soft/reconciles with Peter/Ken, as it looked very much like he was doing in the last episode - I hope he has further villainy up his sleeve. It'll be much more entertaining.
- 14 March 2010 at 13:59
- Peter said...
I can understand why George is doing this but behind even his wifes back shows just how determined and actually blinkered he has become.
He wasn't there for Lucy when she was little, that is established. Character wise his actios have actually been consistent and certainly not rash. Initially he was trying to help Simon indirectly by supporting Peter and Leanne. He ploughed a small fortune into the bar of course. Also he was very pushy about the private schooling and even (at such a late stage) paid for Peter's rehab treatment.
A lot of this was down to his enthusiasm at discovering he actually had a grandson of course. He desperately wants to play a very much active role in his upbringing (which i hope he still can).
His conflict with Ken was predictable but actually quite apt in many ways. It helped him get closer to Peter and thus to Simon. It also showed some of Ken's true colours that have exasparated Deirdre for so many years.
He showed a devious (or determined) side however, by manipuLAting Leanne when she very much needed support, in taking Simon away. After actually doing a much needed turn in having Simon over, he quickly abused this position and decided he could do a better job of caring for him.
This, as we know, is very short sighted. Particularly when you consider he was a struggling father himself, with demons, like Peter. He wasn't there for his own daughter. Did he not stop to think that his inherently selfish actions where not only to Simon's detriment but also forcing his own shortcomings as a father onto Peter as another?
I hope to see his relationship with Eve tested through this storyline and i also hope that they both become permanent additions to the cast.
So often with storylines like these, the character is introduced for the short term effect of the storyline, rather than long term to the benefit of the show. Stephanie Beacham being a good recent example.
A fantastic storyline. Consistent in its execution and in my view, a highlight of the rather underwhelming Kim Crowther era. - 14 March 2010 at 16:16
- Yoork said...
Yeah, George can't "rest in peace" one day knowing how he abandoned his daughter, and has made it his quest to care for Simon.
This was a good storyline, yes. Although, I feel so bad for poor little Simon, hopefully he can resume a normal life after. - 14 March 2010 at 19:23
Any alternastive would be better for the child rather than living an a stinking smoke filled room above a bookie's with a hopeless alcoholic loser of a father.

World Series Game III Preview
Game III of the World Series takes place tonight in St Louis as Jake Peavy toes the rubber against Joe Kelly. The game opened with Boston as a -115 favorite but a flood of Cardinal money has made the Red Birds -108 reverse favorites. The high/low is 7 with under shaded 20 cents to the over.
Not sure how this total was not set at least a run higher. Jake Peavy is 0-3 in the postseason with a 10.31 ERA. He's allowed 21 earned runs in his 18 1/3 innings of work. Joe Kelly is 0-1 with a 4.96 ERA in his three postseason starts. The over is 6-2-1 in his L9 starts.

(NCAAF) Colorado State -2 over Hawaii (Saturday, October 26, 2013 11:59 PM EST)
Going to the islands and winning has always been a problem from for bottom half WAC and Mountain West teams. Still willing to back resurgent Rams here who absolutely have to have this game in their quest to get Bowl eligible. We were very impressed in the Rams effort against Alabama, a 31-6 loss. Sure it was a flat spot in a non-conference game for a disinterested Tide team but the Rams played hard and physical and didn't back down at all. The Rams are off a big win over Wyoming in the border war, are just 1-12 L13 as a road fave and playing B2B roadies vs a team coming off a bye. That's an awful situational spot but thinking an improving well coached team guided by long time Saban assistant Jim McElwain is up for the task. Hawaii is winless but generating some offense since switching QBs but turn the ball over at an alarming rate and have just not found a way to get it done. Colorado State scored 59 and 52 in it's wins over UTEP and Wyoming. Hawaii is giving up 35+ per game and hasn't given up less than 30 (USC in opener) in any game this year. CSU won 42-27 last year in Fort Collins and it will probably close to that final tonight in paradise.

Press release from Business Wire
CUSTOMER SUCCESS: City of San Mateo Upgrades IT Management to Better Serve Citizens

 BMC Software improves service to tech-savvy city

Wednesday, July 18, 2012
CUSTOMER SUCCESS: City of San Mateo Upgrades IT Management to Better Serve Citizens07:45 EDT Wednesday, July 18, 2012
HOUSTON (Business Wire) -- Serving the needs of a diverse population is a challenge for any city
government. Add in the fact that the City of San Mateo, California is
located in the heart of Silicon Valley, and it has a lot of big
expectations to live up to with a tech-savvy population.
The IT department for the City of San Mateo was actually facing a
situation in which they were reduced to writing help desk tickets by
hand on scraps of paper. The city needed a more sophisticated way of
processing incoming requests.
The Challenge
Failure to provide adequate IT service management to city employees
resulted in slow response time to citizens and the inability to meet the
demands of a growing high-tech hub.
San Mateo needed a new, cost-effective IT service desk solution that
could help maintain the city's networks, including the personal
computers of more than 600 employees spread across 22 facilities –
enabling them to improve service quality and speed for the city's more
than 90,000 citizens.
According to a senior project manager at the City of San Mateo, they had
a help desk software program in place, but it wasn't implemented well.
The staff did not use it, and they fell back on writing tickets on
paper. Work orders fell through the cracks, and users did not know if
their requests were worked on or escalated.
The Solution
The City of San Mateo chose the BMC
Track-It! solution after reviewing a number of competitive mid-range
help desk solutions, including TechExcel, CATM and HEAT from FrontRange.
The BMC solution was rated the highest by officials in other cities, and
its superior support capabilities indicated that it would garner the
highest levels of customer satisfaction.
The City chose to work with BMC Software because the company's Track-It!
solution offered a user-friendly, easy-to-integrate way for San Mateo's
IT team to improve its service. The team also saved a lot of money, and
city employees were able to focus on tending to the needs of the city
and its citizens, instead of worrying about IT issues.
After implementing the BMC Track-It! help-desk product in just two days,
the city has been able to:
Resolve issues faster
Proactively monitor and identify problems with the network
Quickly fix PCs anytime from any location
Keep inventory of the hardware employees are using
The City of San Mateo also completed a major IT inventory project with
the San Mateo Police Department. If done manually, it would have taken
three months; with BMC, they did it in a week. An average technician
makes from $25 - $30 per hour, so that was a savings of close to $14,000
for that one project.

hello there,
I've just read this discussion as I had the same problem with mine (small scratch on the screen)
I can confirm that there's a protection on your screen.
it was not easy to remove it (just at the begining) but after removing it, the glass is perfect.
Hope this will help.
cool. im happy to hear that, because i thought that the protection screen cannot be remove. and thats permanent forever . So under the protection screen is the gorilla glass? did you remove your screen protector?
As you can see arround the mic and the speaker, there is a protection on this screen.
I start with my nail from the mic (which seems to be the best to start)
and when I had been able to catch it, the whole screen protoction came without difficulties.
I cannot be sure this is a gorilla or a dragontrail or I don't know what, but from the moment I removed the protection (10 minutes ago) and now, the screen is perfect.
This is cool.. thank you flubsch.. i hope the protector can be replace . which is good.. having a protector or no?
For mine, I will not add a new protection and I will trust the original glass.
May be I'm wrong, I'll see.
i tried scratching it with a key now it has 3 colorful scratches can anybody assure me that this has happened before and it's only the screen protector ? i don't want to remove it and then not find another one or being unable to attach it again
I believe it is just the screen protector, don't think you can easily scratch the screen on an Xperia Active. Have a closer look at the screen edges.
hey everyone, i just wanted to share this very important point someone stated in a different post.
adsada arc16th February 2012, 10:50 AM
Just like to point out something important, the protector that is factory applied and is hard to get off is a SHATTER PROOF SHEET! As the screen has been designed to be airtight (the gap between the screen at the touch layer) I have heard of people who have removed this protector and after dropping their arc, the whole screen shattered
This is why despite having a sh1t load of scratches, I'm too afraid to remove this cover, so I wouldn't really recommend it...
PLEASE RECONSIDER taking out the 2nd protection screen?
i, however, own an Xperia mini, and am still saving up to purchase an Active in maybe 1-2years from now HOW ARE YOUR Xperia Active phones?? any complaints? any praises? Updates about your own xperia active phones would be greatly appreciated.
as you can see in many review , xperia active screen is hard to scratch(scratch resistant) after removing the screen protector., and i test to put it in a water and its true, water resistant. Its the coolest phone i know, and can hold many application running without hang.
hello guys, iam looking to buy an Active, but on the website for The United States I can not find a way to buy it, could anyone tell where to go to buy it?

I took a Zoe video today and planned to share it with family members. Youtube seems like the best option for now (until Zoe is live) but I can't get the video to upload in its full resolution. The video was 56 MB but I could only get it to upload as a 16 MB file. As you could imagine the resolution was terrible. I also tried it via Google+ with the same result. Is anyone aware of some option in the camera app to force the actual file to upload as opposed to the compressed garbage?
Copy the file to a computer and try uploading it from there. (First try viewing it on the computer - compression may not be the issue.)
I plan on doing that but was surprised I couldn't do it directly from the phone. I used to do it all the time with the M7.
Looks like the Zoe feature has been removed until summer. Don't bother trying to take a Zoe because they will not show up, at least for the time being. Unfortunate that they had to disable it not long after the phone was released.
This is not true. You can access Zoe through the camera app by pressing on the 4 circles in the bottom right corner of the camera. This allows you to access Zoe as well as other camera modes like panorama and video. The "Zoe" app in the app drawer is a future feature update that will enable additional functionality.
Misunderstanding. I'm aware how to use it because I used it before but I took a Zoe and it wasn't there. Must have not held it down right or something. I saw on the app "Zoe, coming soon" and thought there was some kind of update. Would be nice to be able to toggle Zoe instead of holding.

Clashes erupted today between security forces and protesters as tens of thousands of supporters of the Muslim Brotherhood took to streets in defiance of a military-imposed state of emergency.
Protesters poured out of mosques after traditional mid-day prayers in response to the Muslim Brotherhood's call for a "Friday of Anger" against the ouster of president Mohamed Morsi and the death of more than 600 people during a police operation to evict Morsi supporters from protest camps.

I'm building a Drupal site that utilizes CiviCRM. I've built three CiviCRM forms and have manually added them to the site's primary links menu via admin/build/menu-customize/primary-links/add
Here is a small example of the menu's structure:
- Page 1
- Page
- Page
- CiviCRM Form
When I visit "Page 1" or any of it's subsequent children pages, I see all three child links in the Menu Block.
When I visit the CiviCRM Form, the Menu Block does not appear, even though it was previously displaying in the Menu Block sibling pages.
Is this the same issue people have been trying to resolve where a Menu Block does not display on a page unless it is menued directly from a node/edit
or node/add
If so, is there a solution? If not, might someone be able to help me find a workaround for the issue I'm experiencing?
I need the Menu Block to display on CiviCRM forms that have been manually added to the primary links menu.
As a side note, I've investigated other Drupal modules such as Menu Trails, but I cannot set a trail for CiviCRM forms.
Any help is greatly appreciated.
Turns out my issue was related to this: http://drupal.org/node/1081840

As mentioned above, time it right to motor forward slowly, out of gear, drift forward to take out slack. If it does not break free easily, go back and pop it by motoring forward (or back) a bit more. Go up to the bow again and as soon as it's up off the bottom by 10' or so, you can slowly motor in a good direction if you need to before going up to haul it up all the way. You can even get it up to a point where it won't foul anything or chafe against the hull and let the forward motion wash off the mud, stop and haul in. I'll sail off sometimes but not when there are a lot of other boats around. Too many things can go wrong.
It's absolutely 5/8 chain. I bought it from a friend in need of some cash for 100 buck's. It seem's large, and it is. But when I anchor in 12 feet of water and put out 100 feet of that chain and my 45' anchor I do not worry. Set it and Forget it. I do not have an engine. A good heavy anchor system IS my insurance. You just get up there, sit, wedge your feet in good, and pull. When you get directly above it, pull faster, take a wrap when the anchor is "aweigh" fall off, and sail out of the anchorage. I've done it in all conditions, all times of day or night, with a lot of room and in tight anchorages. I've actually broken 3/8 chain in a storm when my anchor got hung good on some debris. When I got it up. there where links separated at the welds! On the 5/8 rig I put in a shock absorber made of a piece of 3 strand. Over here in the Key's, the Bahama's and Central America, there is never a reason to anchor in 60' of water. In those conditions you use a lot of line and a boat length chain.You need a 5:1 ratio. 60 foot of water is 300 feet of line.

BlackArrow, a San Mateo start-up producing online DVR-proof ads, has raised $14.75 million from Mayfield, Polaris Venture Partners and Intel Capital, according to VentureBeat. The company says its ad insert technology for TV and internet video can show ads even when viewers try to fast-forward (for now, it seems only for online fast forward).
At a time when TV networks who are growing increasingly frustrated that advertisers aren't willing to credit them for the shows that are watched from digital recordings — Nielsen said in June that it would test software this summer that measured television viewing on DVRs and devices such as iPods and cellphones– it should help the previously stealthy company stand out in a cluttered field, if and when it brings the technology onto the TV.
From VentureBeat: After the original show airs on TV, a television network would syndicate the show to their own video web site and potentially other websites. "The 30-second TV spots are removed and replaced with a group of pre-roll, mid-roll, post-roll ads, as well as companion ads (those that occupy real-estate around the video window) that are shown in the various playback modes. BlackArrow handles the brokerage and placing process by providing these new forms of ad inventory."

Minor physical abnormalities and clinical features in patients with schizophrenia spectrum disorders.
Summary of "Minor physical abnormalities and clinical features in patients with schizophrenia spectrum disorders."
INTRODUCTION. Minor physical anomalies are nonspecific morphologic variants generated during gestation. They are markers of events (inherited and/or acquired) related with the 'neuroprogression' of the schizophrenia spectrum disorders and may be differentially involved with their symptom profiles. The aim of the study was to explore the relationship of minor physical anomalies with positive syndrome, negative syndrome and general psychopathology in patients with schizophrenia or other functional psychoses. PATIENTS AND METHODS. Cross-sectional study of patients with schizophrenia or other functional psychoses consecutively hospitalized with an acute psychotic episode. Minor physical anomalies were evaluated with the Waldrop scale and clinical characteristics of psychosis were measured with the Positive and Negative Syndrome Scale (PANSS). RESULTS. 41 patients with functional psychoses were evaluated: 32 (78%) with schizophrenia, 9 (21.9%) with psychotic disorder not otherwise specified. There was no relationship between the Waldrop scale score and score on the PANSS, its negative scale and its general psychopathology scale. The positive scale of the PANSS and the Waldrop scale were correlated in the whole sample (Spearman rho = 0.356; p = 0.022). In the group of patients with schizophrenia, the correlation was even greater (Spearman rho = 0.420; p = 0.017). CONCLUSIONS. The path from apparently premorbid stages to specific clinical pictures in patients with schizophrenia spectrum disorders is determined by the neurodevelopment, a dynamic process influenced by genetic inheritance and environmental injuries.

Medical and Biotech [MESH] Definitions
Schizophrenia, Disorganized
A type of schizophrenia characterized by frequent incoherence; marked loosening of associations, or grossly disorganized behavior and flat or grossly inappropriate affect that does not meet the criteria for the catatonic type; associated features include extreme social withdrawal, grimacing, mannerisms, mirror gazing, inappropriate giggling, and other odd behavior. (Dorland, 27th ed)
Machado-joseph Disease
A dominantly-inherited ATAXIA first described in people of Azorean and Portuguese descent, and subsequently identified in Brazil, Japan, China, and Australia. This disorder is classified as one of the SPINOCEREBELLAR ATAXIAS (Type 3) and has been associated with a mutation of the MJD1 gene on chromosome 14. Clinical features include progressive ataxia, DYSARTHRIA, postural instability, nystagmus, eyelid retraction, and facial FASCICULATIONS. DYSTONIA is prominent in younger patients (referred to as Type I Machado-Joseph Disease). Type II features ataxia and ocular signs; Type III features MUSCULAR ATROPHY and a sensorimotor neuropathy; and Type IV features extrapyramidal signs combined with a sensorimotor neuropathy. (From Clin Neurosci 1995;3(1):17-22; Ann Neurol 1998 Mar;43(3):288-96)
Postpoliomyelitis Syndrome
A syndrome characterized by new neuromuscular symptoms that occur at least 15 years after clinical stability has been attained in patients with a prior history of symptomatic poliomyelitis. Clinical features include new muscular weakness and atrophy of the limbs, bulbar innervated musculature, and muscles of respiration, combined with excessive fatigue, joint pain, and reduced stamina. The process is marked by slow progression and periods of stabilization. (From Ann NY Acad Sci 1995 May 25;753:68-80)
Acrocallosal Syndrome
A condition caused by autosomal recessive gene mutations leading to hypogenesis or absence (agenesis) or of CORPUS CALLOSUM, the band of nerve fibers joining the two CEREBRAL HEMISPHERES. Clinical features include MENTAL RETARDATION; CRANIOFACIAL ABNORMALITIES; digital malformations, and growth retardation.
Hemophilia B
A deficiency of blood coagulation factor IX inherited as an X-linked disorder. (Also known as Christmas Disease, after the first patient studied in detail, not the holy day.) Historical and clinical features resemble those in classic hemophilia (HEMOPHILIA A), but patients present with fewer symptoms. Severity of bleeding is usually similar in members of a single family. Many patients are asymptomatic until the hemostatic system is stressed by surgery or trauma. Treatment is similar to that for hemophilia A. (From Cecil Textbook of Medicine, 19th ed, p1008)

Although Democratic alarm bells are ringing, Peterson's off-year fundraising tally is actually up in 2013 compared to his average hauls over the last decade
Speculation continues that 12-term Minnesota U.S. Representative Collin Peterson might retire at the end of his term after new numbers came out revealing the congressman's third quarter fundraising efforts.
Those numbers show Peterson to have raised approximately $83,000 from July through September to bring his year-to-date tally to $364,000.
Peterson - who will be 70 on Election Day next November - has not attempted to silence these rumors by stating unequivocally that he would run for a 13th term, but his campaign dismissed the congressman's fundraising numbers as a sign he would step down.
From a Peterson campaign statement reported by Roll Call:
"It's premature to read too much into Congressman Peterson's report this fundraising quarter given that he does not yet have an opponent, he is still considering whether he will run again, and the amount raised is similar to what he's raised previously in off-year quarters."
Is that true or is that campaign spin?
A Smart Politics review of Representative Peterson's fundraising efforts over the last decade show the congressman's 2013 tally is right on target - and actually exceeding similar off-year tallies.
Over the five previous cycles from 2003 through 2011, Peterson's average third quarter off-year fundraising tally was $94,460 - similar to this year's $83K.
In fact, Peterson raised more money in Q3 2013 than he did in the same period in 2003 ($61,660), 2005 ($70,378), and 2011 ($69,898).
The only cycles over the last decade in which he had a healthier total were in 2007 ($162,459) and 2009 ($107,907) - understandable considering Peterson, who has always been PAC-heavy in his fundraising, was the Agricultural Committee Chair during those years.
The $364K Peterson has raised during the first nine months of 2013 is also above his five-cycle average at this stage of the campaign.
From 2003 through 2011, Representative Peterson brought in an average three-quarter haul of $320,896 in off-years.
In other words, Peterson's 2013 tally is actually up 13.4 percent from his average tally over the last decade at this stage of the campaign, and 60 percent higher than his $227,460 average amount raised in 2003 ($96,110), 2005 ($252,963), and 2011 ($333,307) - the cycles before and after his Agriculture Committee chairmanship.
Republicans are, of course, salivating at the notion of a Peterson retirement given the GOP-lean of the district.
Minnesota's 7th CD would be one of the party's prime pick-up opportunities across the country.
The congressman has been reelected by an average margin of 28.6 points over the last 11 cycles including a comfortable 17.6-point win during the Republican tsunami of 2010.

A film of enourmous proportions that shows the majesty and mystery of our planet,
Verified Purchase(What's this?)
This review is from: Planet Earth: The Complete Series (DVD)
It is hard to find a starting point in reviewing a film series that has set such a high standard of achievement. I frequently found myself pausing, rewinding and replaying multiple segments of each eposide, fascinated with the extent to which these expert filmmakers went to capture such amazing footage. What sets this "nature documentary" apart from all that have come before it is the expert utilization of a multitude of filmmaking tools reserved for big budget TV commercials, music videos and feature films. Examples can be seen right from the first episode, where the use of a motion control rig and time lapse photography shows the full, month long transition between seasons on the arctic tundra, and long distance, high speed lenses capture the frolicking of a polar bear and her cubs. The African wild dog hunt segment made use of a high-tech helicopter HD camera mount, formerly used exclusively by the military. Even small clips that take you into the next act are amazing, unparalleled photographic achievements.
Photographic and technical wizardry aside, the mandate of this series was to show the planet and it's non-human inhabitants as they've never been seen before. In this respect, the producer, Alistair Fothergill, and his team of hundreds have far exceeded their goal. This did not come about without putting in a mammoth amount of sweat equity. In watching the 10 minute diary segements after each episode, one sees the drive and determination of the crew, sometimes up to three years of hiking and filming, to capture a few minutes of rare footage. A previous reviewer has referenced the snow leopard and shark footage, I would like to add the pirhana feeding frenzy and stork migration over Mount Everest as truly awestriking segments as well. The narration by David Attenbourough adds a gentle backstory and a few exclamation points to footage that could stand alone without it. A 5.1 soundtrack, and BBC Orchestra score give a compelling reason to turn up the volume, sit back and enjoy the HD glory of this absolutely flawless presentation. This is a must see series for children and adults alike... awesome... awesome... awesome!

This version is with David,
This review is from: Planet Earth: The Complete Series (DVD)
This is a great series; you will fill like never before when you watch the series. And don't worry because Sigourney Weaver, the narrator of the discovery's planet earth version in the USA, will not narrate this DVD set. This set will contain the original version with David Attenborough's narration. Is just an error of Amazon listing Weaver as the narrator in this set. I can confirm this because I have seen many sources that confirm this. The version with Weaver is on sale on the Discovery's store and it has a different cover. I hope you buy this set and not the discovery's because I have heard Weaver's narration and Attenborough's narration, and Weaver's is nothing compare to Attenborough's. I hope you enjoy this set as I did.

Planet Earth - A Close Encounter With Perfection,
Verified Purchase(What's this?)
This review is from: Planet Earth: The Complete Series [HD DVD] (HD DVD)
We awaited the delivery of this set with great anticipation. We are diehard David Attenborough fans, having watched Blue Planet, The Life of Birds, The Life of Mammals, Ghandi, The Trials of Life and many others. The photography in this series is simply impecable. The images are crisp and clean and put the viewer almost in the lap of the very thing he/she is watching. It's only when the camera is pulled back slowly that we see just how amazing the shots really are. Many of the scenes have never been captured before. Some of the locales have not been open to photographers for the past 25 years. In the case of the Chandalier Cave, the producers of this magnificent series had the last photographers to have access to this fragile environment.
One of the great things about this series is they have a segment right after each 'episode' (there are three per DVD) entitled Diaries. The viewer is given a very personal account from the photographers as to just how difficult it was to get their remarkable shots. It not only highlights the humanity of the photographers and directors but also the dedication they put into their work, and the unbelievable lengths to which they will go in order to achieve it. More often than not it is done at great physical expense as they put themselves in harm's way. We've been avid wildlife watchers and many of the scenes within this set have never been captured and viewed before. The flow of each 'episode' is remarkable. Attenborough comes through again as he narrates each segment with dignity and aplomb. We highly recommend this series.

Planet Earth the best DVD you can buy this year.,
This review is from: Planet Earth: The Complete Series (DVD)
First let's clear one thing up it is David Attenborough who narrates this series not Sigourny Weaver
The ultra high speed cameras used for Planet Earth capture footage with such clarity it is unbelievable. The shark footage alone is worth it. The high definition filming is amazing because they can film from so far away you see animals going about their daily lives undisturbed. This DVD should be shown in every school around the world, it would capture the young students attention and show them the beauty of our planet as they have never seen before and show them why we must protect our environment.

This Version is Missing Content!,
This review is from: Planet Earth: The Complete Series [Blu-ray] (Blu-ray)
A friend of mine showed me this series on DVD. I was so impressed I couldn't wait to purchase the Blu-Ray version and watch it at 1080p resolution. It turns out that not every scene is filmed in high definition, which is understandable given the conditions of some of the filming. What REALLY disappointed me about this version, however, is that much of the content is missing! The DVD version has a short documentary piece after each section that shows how the filming was done. This is actually some of the most interesting content. It's incredible, for example, how many days a photographer spent hiding in a blind to film a rare bird in the Amazon. When I got the Blu-Ray set I searched and searched but all this "making of" content is not included!

Where's the bonus material?,
By Emmet (Montreal, QC) - See all my reviews
This review is from: Planet Earth: The Complete Series [Blu-ray] (Blu-ray)
This series is outstanding. Great cinematography and just mind boggling natural beauty.
The only question I have is why does the product description mention a 5 disc set when the product image clearly states 4 disc set, like the one I own. Was there a re-release of this product? Where is the fifth disc? Where are those 10 minute behind the scenes clips for each episode? I don't have any of that on mine. In fact my version is bare-bones episodes, no special features. For my first blue-ray purchase that's a little disappointing. My friend has the regular dvd's and they do have all the special features and extras... Why would the blue-ray version have less?

Try to imagine 5 DVD's of AMAZING stuff from around the world that has never been filmed before. This is the most comprehensive documentary I have ever seen. The quality of the cinematography is top notch. I was truly inspired by it. A very engaging and tremendous learning experience for ALL ages.

By Spy Chadwick (Washington, D.C.) - See all my reviews
This review is from: Planet Earth: The Complete Series (DVD)
This series should also be required viewing for the politicans and businessmen of the world. The cinematography is without parallel. The images are haunting and beautiful. There is a mixture of awe, wonder, shame and sadness - the latter two because of our (mankind's) on-going destruction of this planet and its species. To this end, this series include an extra DVD of three hour-long episodes about the threats to this planet - and to our very existence - and which offers some solutions.

Looking forward to this - maybe,
This review is from: Planet Earth: The Complete Series (DVD)
While the TV presentation of Planet Earth has David Attenborough narrating, this DVD appears to have Sigourney Weaver as narrator.
Not wishing to detract from Ms Weaver's skills, Attenborough fans may want to seek out the UK version with David Attenborough if this release does not have the option of selecting him for voice-over. That said, I will definitely be adding this title to my library, as the visuals are stunning, the transitions from season to season using the same shot are well done, and as an educational tool I highly recommend this as a way to see naturally beautiful parts of the natural world that often go unseen.

Problems with the blu-ray? horrid quality in some chapters...,
Verified Purchase(What's this?)
This review is from: Planet Earth: The Complete Series [Blu-ray] (Blu-ray)
My brother owns the progressive scan quality DVD of this set and watching it on my component cabled DVD player it was astounding on my 42" LG LCD 1080p. I loved it so much I thought "I need to have this!", but decided why get it in DVD format when I can one up it and go for the blu-ray. I even bought a blu-ray player and HDMI cable just in preparation for this set.
WOW it looks incredible!...until you get to a lower light shot. Something has happened in the transfer to the blu-ray and added SEVERE amounts of dark dark blue (sometimes grey) grain to low light shots. Now I realize not "all" the camera work is done in HD, which is fine, but these scenes looks WORSE on blu-ray than on DVD, how does that happen? The caves episode shows it the worst, some scenes have literal snow on them like partially opaque white noise, and some scenes LITERALLY look like one of those 10yr old VHS tapes with a show recorded from TV look to them. I mean it is absolutely undeniable how horrid some of it looks. There's forums all over the net complaining about this from up to 2 yrs ago it seems. No idea if it's just -some- of the blu-rays or all of them, not sure if the BBC will recall it or what. But I am truly sad that the DVD version overall looks better than the blu-ray. Nothing worse than sitting down to pure eye-candy (and educational to boot) and switching scenes and thinking "wow am I watching this on UHF?". For those thinking it may be my setup it's not, I'm watching this on an LG50 42" 1080p using a Sharp Aquous Blu-ray player with the most up-to-date firmware tranferring on a 4' HDMI gold cable. Every blu-ray I have is fine, save for this one. |

Designer Cartoons For Barneys Electric Holiday | Pictures
Here's What Suzy Menkes and Alber Elbaz Look Like as Cartoons
We've already seen the iconic Disney characters Barneys has dressed up like fashion people for its Electric Holiday retail concept, but what about the equally iconic fashion people involved in the production?
On Thursday, Barneys released a line drawing of Alber Elbaz, BryanBoy, Suzy Menkes, Steven Meisel, and Carine Roitfeld sitting in the front row at a fashion show. The animated runway spectacle will be the climax of a short film Disney has created for the collaboration, in which Minnie Mouse, Goofy, and Daphne Duck among other characters will walk down a catwalk in Paris. "Rumor has it Franca Sozzani, Emmanuelle Alt, Sarah Jessica Parker, Glenda Bailey will be sitting together front row as well," a Barneys representative said in an email.
Electric Holiday will debut at Barneys' Madison Ave. flagship store in New York City on Nov. 14. Until then, a look at the cartoon renderings of some of the most influential people in fashion here in the gallery.

A beginners guide This is a crash course for anybody trying to grow indoors but doesnt actually know what they are doing. This it to get you started and should be enough to prevent your plants from any major mistakes in the beginning. It should buy you some time to read up on whats still ahead of you such as flowering. An informed grower = happy plants First off being informed is key so before getting started you should gather as much information as you can, there is plenty of info and people here willing to help you out. Some basic subjects you should be informed about: Lighting Light cycle Soil Ventilation/heat Reflective surfaces There is much more to know such as ph levels, Co2, nutrients and such, but as for now this should really just show you the basics of how to start and make you aware of what you should know to prevent the usual beginner mistakes. Lighting Here we go. Often when somebody more or less spontaneously decides to start a grow without really looking around for information first, is tend to use the wrong kind of light and placing them too far away. Im not going to go into HPS (high pressure sodium) or HID lighting (high intensity discharge), because if you already know about these and considering them as an option, then you probably already know about all the basics anyway. These are all more advances lighting systems that will give you great results but also require more knowledge. If you are a beginner grower then you will want to go with Compact Fluorescent Lights (CFLs) or Fluorescent Tubes (FTs). They will be your new best friends. Why these lights? They are cheap, will not get very hot and most importantly emit the right spectrum of light plants need. Stay away from regular light bulbs, flood lights etc! Although both CFLs and FTs can be used, unless you want to use FTs you already have laying around the house im going to go ahead and suggest on not using FTs but rather the CFLs if you are going to grow a plant or two. This is for the simple reason that the light form a CFL is more focused on a smaller area than a FT. A 30 Watt CFL will focus that light nicely on one plant but a 30 Watt FT will spread all that light to its 4 foot length. This way a small plant wont receive 30 Watts of light but rather just a small amount because most of the light isnt reaching the plant. Also a CFL will fit into any grow space. Using the wrong, too little or light that is too far away causes the plant to stretch and fall over. This happens because the plant is trying to grow towards the light in order to get more of it. Type of light There are two different kinds of CFL light you can buy that can be labelled with different names. The first can be name cool bight white daylight or blue, this type of light will look blueish (duh). Some of the names for the second are warm or red, this type of light will look redish (man am I smart). So why two different kinds of light? There are two main stages (if you dont count germination etc), vegetative and flowering. Both stages specifically require one of these kinds of light for better growth. For the vegetative stage you will need the blue light. - Vegetation = Blue - For the flowering stage, the red. - Flowering = Red - You can still have both blue and red lights on a plant throughout both stages, however you will need to have at least blue for veg and red for flowering Also a beginner mistake, dont go and get a regular red or blue light bulb thinking that your plant needs this colour, this is not any better than a white light bulb (hey thats what I did when I first read about plants needing red and blue light *puts hand in front of face in shame*). For more detailed information on CFLs look at this part of the FAQ: http://www.rollitup.org/view.php?pg=faq&cmd=article&id=25
How much light do I need You should have at least 40 Watts worth of CFLs per square foot or 30 Watts per plant. That would be about 3000 lumens of light a foot or 2500 lumens a plant. This is however the minimum. The more you get, the better and more buds. How far away should my plants be from the light CFLs wont get too hot so you can put those plants within about 3 inches of the bulb. The closer the better but make sure they dont get too close and burn. Put your hand under the bulb and see if it gets hot. Find a right distance where the light is warm but not hot. Light cycle There are two different light cycles youll need to know about. How much light you give your plants will determine when they are in vegetative state and when they start to flower. Vegetative: After your plants have sprouted they will be in the vegetative state. Here they are only growing and not producing any flowers yet. They will stay this way as long as you give them a minimum amount of light a day. Typically growers will give them from 18-24 hours of light during the vegetative stage. There are many people who swear 18 hours light 6 hours dark a day is the best and many people are convinced continuous 24 hours light is the best. Both seem to work fine so it will be up to you to decide. When you want your plant to start flowering you will need to switch to 12/12 (12 hours light/12 hours dark). A simple timer (~3$) will help you automate this. Vegetative 18-24 hours light a day. Flowering 12 hours light 12 hours dark Soil For the same reasons I didnt go into HID or HPS lights im not going to go into soilless mix hydro or other systems. Heres just the fundamental on soil, dont reuse any soil from old plants, get some new soil or use some from a good compost heap. Miracle grow with time released nutrients should be avoided. Get something with perlite, this will loosen up the soil and give the roots more air. Ventilation and heat Ventilation is important for several reasons especially if growing in a small space. For one, this will help the temperature in your grow area to be regulated. Ideally it should be 70-80F, however they should do fine up to 90F if nothing can be done about it. Second Ventilation will create an artificial breeze that will help the stem of the plant grow stronger. Place a rotating desk fan in your grow area or if you are growing in a grow box, use some modified PC fans to blow air out of your box. On further information on how to build these look here: http://www.rollitup.org/view.php?pg=faq&cmd=article&id=226 On how to best position them look here: http://www.rollitup.org/view.php?pg=faq&cmd=article&id=581 Reflective surfaces Reflective surfaces in your grow area is a great way to maximise your lighting. Dark walls will absorb light so you will want to do something about this. Usually the first reaction to this is a visit to the kitchen drawer to grad some aluminium foil. Stay away from this because the foil can create hot spots that burn your plant. Also if your growing in a small space, lining the walls with this will basically create a little oven trapping the hot air. What to use: Mylar, more on the expensive side. Reflective gift wrap that you can find at the dollar store is a great cheap alternative to mylar White paint on the wall will also works very well Other common mistakes Fertilisers For new growers there will hardly ever be a problem of adding to little fertiliser to a plant during vegetation but rather of adding too much. Thats why try not fertilizing at all until necessary (during vegetative). Watering Common mistake is overwatering your plants. You dont need to water them every day and there are several factors that decide how much water a plant needs such as container size, growth stage or temperature. Either buy a water meter (~5$) or use the basic rule of sticking your finger in the soil, once the 2-3 inches is dry its time to water again. Give it a good watering, once its dry start over again. Too close to light Although you should get the plants as close as you can, placing them too close will burn your plant, this could be fatal for small plants. Light leakage During the dark periods, especially while in flowering it is very important to make sure no light gets to the plant. This could cause big problems such as you plant turning hermie or preventing your plants from flowering so make sure your area is light proof. Telling friends Growing can be very exciting and one of the biggest challenge is keeping it secret. It can be very tempting to share your experience with your friends but this is can be a big mistake because often they get very tempted to tell somebody else. Try to keep it to yourself, youll risk getting busted if word gets out.
A last word, for all those thinking they dont want to spend any or little money, if you want to grow right, even if it is just one plant, this will cost you some money. If you dont get enough light your plants will not grow right and even if you manage to reach harvest you will not end up with much. If somehow you can get anything off a 10$ budget then youve got two green thumbs, toes and some kinda weed angel looking over you. Growing when done right can be an expensive hobby and requires a lot of time and patience. If you are doing this as a random experiment to see what happens then go for it, your plant might not make it too far but youll gather a lot of information. So if youre going to grow do it right from the start. If you invest 100$ then you should easily get at least that much back in bud (not saying you should sell but rather money saved in not having to buy your own) after your first grow with one plant. That and you will be able to use your setup over and over again. Also if youre anything like most growers youll get into it real fast and love doing it. Then spending some money wont just be seen as a necessity but youll want to improve wherever you can anyways and not mind spend the extra $ here and there. With that said, keep gathering information and good luck!
Thats it, i thought it might be good to have a page where all the basic beginner information is summed up in the FAQ so i typed something up. Any thoughts, comments?
Very helpfull thx! When it is dry around how much water do you think it needs? I use a water bottle so would u say half or what? (poked holes in the cap)
you can pretty much soak it so that water runs out the bottom. Just dont do this without the plant needing to be watered first or else the roots will not get enough air form constantly being flooded.
Hey, thanks for advice and info. I've been using Miralce Grow with timed nutrient releasers. Now I know that it should be avoided in using that one. So, I must now find a soil that is alot better. And about the flo. lights, on the difference between CFL and FT. I recently ordered CT's, starting out with only one plant, not enough space, not enough privacy, and still need a better set up. Can you tell me more? Please.
Whats your space, budget like? Are you growing in an already stealthy area like a closet or do you need to build a grow box?
Thanks this was very helpful, but like Thugg, i need some advice if my one plant set up will work. I plan on using an old not working computer. First i would clear everything out of there except for the fan then drill a hole in the top for a place my cfl light can fit in, im looking for a generally small plant so i can do about everything i need to in this computer, and suggestions. Thanks.
Although every now and then people talk about some friend they know who had a successfull PC grow, nobody has ever really said that they themselves has managed to do it. The space it too small to really flower in, it could only really used for vegitation for a week or two. There is somebody on the site right now preparing a PC grow and everybodys watching cuz they wanna see whatll happen. My advice, stay clear of the PC grow and make yourself a bigger box if you want to finish flowering or end up with more than 4 grams after 3 months work. If you need any help, let me know.
im on my 1st grow thought i was just having a play around. now 3 week into flower and around £450 shorter but lernt a lot about plants and how thay survive . (i can even grow plant in my garden now) and that is a accomplishments everything i used to touch turned to dust but not now love this forum keep up he good work all

I got a moisture/ph meter and the ph basic slightly basic i got some ph down, but im not sure what dosage, and i'm not sure thats the only prob. 2nd Is bloodmeal a good idea and how should I use it 3rd is my set up adequate. I'm learning so I didnt want to spend too much yet. Once I know what I'm doing I'll spend more. Any help appreciated Attached Thumbnails

Well it looks like everything you basically need is there, it just might not all be set up as well as it could be. This is exactly what youll learn on your first grow, how to better adjust everything. Its hard to tell exactly what is where in the picture, as far as the yellowing, maybe its the nutes in the miracle grow soil, are you also adding extra nutes? What are your temps and how much are you watering? Can you get some pictures of just the plants?
hey i started to grow when my freind gave me 2 clones,now i want to start from scratch. Once the seeds have been germinated how far in should i put them in the soil?and should i give them light and water?[if so how much?]
Just make a hole up to an inch deep and put the seed in there. You dont need to give it light while its still under the soil but as soon as it pops out it will need light. Because of that i would just give it light before it shows itself to make sure it has it once its out.
Great guide, Plain English, easy to read and to understand for a non-initiate to growing. I would have avoided a few mistakes with with first grow if I had read this. Nice work
i built myon 16pothydro drip system and im using a 400 wtt hps i need 2 no is it best 2hav my water feed constant or should i put it on a timer 2
