Confident Darvish breeds excitement for Rangers
Right-hander shows ability to throw multiple pitches at any time
HOUSTON -- There was disappointment for Yu Darvish. There was excitement, too. The Rangers believe there's going to be more special nights like this one. Yes, he's that good.
"Every way you can throw a ball, he did it tonight," Rangers catcher A.J. Pierzynski said.
Darvish showed off seven different pitches, throwing them at different speeds and pretty much where he wanted to throw them in retiring 26 consecutive Astros on Tuesday night at Minute Maid Park.
And then when Darvish was one out from the 24th perfect game in history, a fastball caught a bit too much of the plate, and Astros shortstop Marwin Gonzalez grounded a single up the middle.
Afterwards, both clubhouses saluted Darvish for his talent and his poise and all the rest.
"As a hitter, you have no idea what's coming," Rangers third baseman Adrian Beltre said after Texas beat Houston, 7-0. "He throws different fastballs, different sliders, different splits. It's tough to look for one pitch, because you never get that pitch."
The Rangers were heartbroken at the ending, hoping to be part of history. But they were thrilled at the idea of seeing how the next six months unfold. If this is the Yu Darvish they're going to be seeing this season, the Rangers will feel pretty good about making a fourth straight playoff appearance.
"He has so many weapons," Pierzynski said. "We threw everything. We threw the kitchen sink. But Yu has the ability to do that. He's special. Hopefully, this is just a precursor to what he does all year."
From the moment Texas signed Darvish 15 months ago, this was close to the kind of game it expected to get. He had so much pure stuff that it seemed he would have a short adjustment period to baseball in the United States.
Years from now, it probably will look like a quick adjustment. At the time, it was excruciating to watch as Darvish either couldn't or wouldn't throw strikes. In his first 22 starts, he averaged 5.1 walks per nine innings and had a 4.54 ERA. His season may have turned when Rangers manager Ron Washington urged him to pitch the way he wanted to pitch.
Around that time, Darvish was transformed. He gained confidence in his stuff. He relied more on a terrific cut fastball. And he stopped being afraid of the strike zone. In eight starts since then, Darvish has been as dominant as any pitcher in the game. In 59 1/3 innings, he has allowed 30 hits with 10 walks and 73 strikeouts and a 1.83 ERA.
Darvish showed off a bit of everything on Tuesday night, but the key may have been that he threw it all with confidence.
"He was super aggressive," Astros third baseman Brett Wallace said. "His stuff was working well tonight, and he got ahead early and had a lot of pitches working."
Two pitches in particular led the way. Darvish's slider has a wicked break, and Houston saw a lot of them early in the game. And then in the later innings, his split-finger fastball looked almost unhittable with its late, sharp break.
"He can make that slider look like a strike," Astros first baseman Carlos Pena said.
As the game wore on and as the crowd began to get into it, the Rangers gave Darvish his space in the dugout, hoping not to jinx his quest for history.
Washington said he began checking on Darvish after the sixth inning, but the conversations were quick.
"Once he said he felt good, I walked away," Washington said.
As for Darvish, he never seemed to change.
"It's not like he runs around giving guys high fives anytime," Pierzynski said. "He was Yu."
Finally, with one out to go, Gonzalez swung at a first pitch and got a hard-hit grounder between Darvish's legs.
Washington popped out of the dugout, got his pitcher and patted him on the back.
"I told him I loved him," Washington said. "He pitched a [great] game for us tonight."

Neb. murder spree figure critically hurt in Mich. crash
A woman who was one of two teenage participants in a killing spree that left 11 people dead 55 years ago and became the basis of the movie "Badlands" starring Sissy Spacek and Martin Sheen has been critically injured in a crash in Michigan.
The Battle Creek Enquirer says 70-year-old Caril Clair of Stryker, Ohio, was critically hurt and her 81-year-old husband Frederick Clair killed late Monday in a single-vehicle crash on Interstate 69 in Calhoun County's Tekonsha Township, 70 miles south-southeast of Grand Rapids.
As a 14-year-old, then-Caril Fugate and her 19-year-old boyfriend Charlie Starkweather went on a killing spree in Nebraska and Wyoming in 1957-58 that claimed the lives of Fugate's mother, stepfather, 2-year-old sister and eight others.
Starkweather was executed, while Fugate was imprisoned until 1976.

I will definitely be purchasing from you guys again.
Install Time: Under 30 minutes
I have purchased two of these hitches and both have performed flawlessly.
Install Time: 30-60 minutes
The hitch was easy to install and fits nicely under the rear bumper. My only disappointment was how scratched up it was when I got it. Because it is powder coated it took special epoxy paint to repaint it. The paint cost me $8 and a day to prepare paint and let dry before it could be installed.
Install Time: 30-60 minutes
AAG's prices were the best, the product arrived sooner than I expected, and the item was in perfect shape. It was simple to assemble and took less than the 20 minutes estimated. Perfect purchase and perfectly happy. I'd order from AAG again in a heartbeat! In fact...I already have.

General Considerations:
1. ZIP type parallel conductor constructions afford the lowest cost and
overall ease of termination. They are significantly less costly than Teflon
FEP constructions, with only slightly lower impedance. ZIP cable use should
be limited to areas where they can be routed away from noise aggressors such
as CPU's, fans, and power supplies. Due to their parallel construction, they
do not have good crosstalk isolation and common mode noise rejection.
2. Loose Pair constructions afford a maximum of cable flexibility and
routability in bus applications requiring good air flow for heat
dissipation. Their twisted pair construction yields good common mode noise
rejection and crosstalk isolation. However, impedance control is not as
tight as fully laminated twisted pair designs.
3. Fully Laminated twisted pair constructions afford good control of
impedance, skew, and crosstalk due to precise placement of the twisted
pairs. The dual lamination (top and bottom of the pair) allows the cable to
be bent and folded without delamination and subsequent cable failure.
Folding and creasing of this type of cable should be minimized at Ultra320
data rates in order to avoid reflections caused by impedance
4. OptiClearTM is recommended for Ultra320 applications where the cable
must be round for maximum airflow and cable routability, while retaining the
consistent electrical performance required of Ultra320 signaling.

"Evil Lyn Sorceress of Night."
I agree with you.Originally Posted by evil-lyn4ever
Is it just me, or does Lodar look like he could be the "Icons of Evil" version of Spikor. He's got the right skin tone, his current appearance is covered with Spikes on his armor, and since his face is covered, we can't rell if he has a human face, or a more animalistic appearance like we'd expect from Spikor.
I realize Lodar is from the original mini-comic... I just like the re-design here, and happened to notice some similarities.
Either way, all the characters have amazing designs (as always).
Great job guys!

I can safely say that Lodar is not Spikor. (I would never allow it! )
Thanks for the support guys and gals Im glad most of you enjoy it. Obviously it'll never be everybody's cup of tea but we aim to please in the best way we think possible. I personally feel that what we try to produce here is what most fans would have wanted the toon to be like.

Great Story and great art!
I liked the Battle Armor He-Man and the Enforcers Corps verry much, but I still have a question.
Can someone post a picture of Lodar from the Minicomics? I cannot remember him.
Proud member of the Arizona MAZTERS since 2003
now that I know the original Story I have mor respect for your work. You rock the hell out of the Mattel and Cartoon Guys.
Is the next Story based on a Minicomic too?
Not exactly. It's loosely based on a story from the MOTU magazine, which you can read here:Originally Posted by Schwammhorn
We're not following it as closely as we followed Slave City though.
Great story lads, great story!
There's a few little things wich kinda bothered me at the end however:
Marlena knowing that Adam is He-man?? You foo! That one was reserved for when he leaves Eternia for the far, far future!
And... Regal Battle Armour He-mans patched together pants! It just doesn't seem to rime quite right...
Awesome! I love that story! I was wondering if that was where you got the idea from. I have the swedish-edition comic! It's one of those many Ehapa stories wich blended the Filmation-toon and a smidgen of Mini-comic into perfection! Orko's magic is a corner-stone for He-mans journey in that story. Say... Now I have to find info on the guy that pencilled the Book of Evil, he was really good.Originally Posted by gbagok
I wonder... any of you think that Emiliano may know of this gentleman?
{begins to break sweat}Originally Posted by gbagok
I.. see no problem with going trough with that adaption...
As for He-mans costume, well, it does look as if he's got NO 0_0 underwear whatsoever. That joke about the dingling that someone made might not be all that far off..

I cannot believe he-man's outfit is this controversial
The guy wears a loin cloth most of the time...
I think it's great seeing the strongest man in the universe get some variation in his wardrobe, bring it on!
I have no words. It's all so atmospheric.
I just finished going through my S1, V1 DVDs a few days ago and "A Tale of Two Cities" was by far my absolute favorite. I was watching it again last night for the fifth time and to see this updated version is quite a treat.
Outstanding work!
And I think hefty said it best...
I think He-Man's gladiator armor should stick around just a little longer. I had no problem with it at all.Originally Posted by heftysmurf76
Please tell me you're not teasing. I love Stout's interpretation and to see your version of it would be wonderful. That and the possiblity of She-Ra/Adora in a future story makes me positively giddy.Originally Posted by gbagok

CLARK: "You like to be on top. Got it."
LOIS: "Don't push me Kent. You are way out of your league."
I should have replied earlier, but I didn't get round to it. Anyways, I love this story. It's a lot better then the return to anwat Gar (didn't like that one that much, sorry. ). The thing i like most is the design you guys did for the minicomic characters and the BA He-man.
Dude it was brilliant!
As for the complainers screw'em this was great don't change your way of doing things. I for one could use some pg-13 in the next story.
Great work boys!!!!

Ok...name creation for MOTU can range from creative choice of words to something that applies to their "special feature". Or it can be based on something as simple as how you pronounce the name. Aliteration works too.Originally Posted by SnakeMenPriest
Let's take Kayle of Snake Mountain by StarBlazerM31. She's an evil Skele-babe basically...I thought Kayle...sounds like K-ILL. Maybe she's suffering from some love sickness with Keldor...or has mental illness that makes her sadistic...I don't know, didn't create the character.
Here's one.
Zodac=Zodiac. See how that plays out? The Zodiac? Cosmic enforcer? I like names like Zodon cause it plays off of what we already know.
Skeletor=Skeleton. See how that worked?
Clawful= Big Claw + Awful character.
Here's one off the fly---Croc-O-Dial: Croc is a crocadile type creature...loosely based on Whiplash. The Dial refers to her specialty/weapon.
Sure, Man-At-Arms is known as Duncan...but they didn't sell the name Duncan, friend, it was Man-At-Arms.
Pretty easy to catch on, but it's not something most refer to when doing fan fic and that's forgivable (though I'd like it if people did try to make up stuff that fit into MOTU).
Now this bit about Artist needing more "complainers"? Hey, I saw the toe mistake after you pointed out. Nice. Uhm, but considering there is no "bible" to go off of in re-designing old into new, I think we can let a toe more or a toe less pass on a reptile design.
I could go on into detail in praising what I enjoyed about the work, but honestly I don't have the time (who does)...the lighting and colors, the inspiration and or influence for the art..the easy read of the story and how while "Slave City" isn't the most original title, the execution of the content is very exceptional! This is a unique contribution to MOTU and I'm all for it. Do I have a crit? Just one really, I'd like to see a battle/action pin up once in a while.
I don't really understand your gripe, but hey, if you got a better story and or art, drop it, I'd like to read it and I'm sure others would too.

"Why's Dragstor riding on Night Stalker?" "Cause he can."
Agreed. And if people don't like it, well then they shouldn't read it. As I stated before, i didn't like the Anwat Gar thing. Did you see me complaining? I think not.Originally Posted by Sir Reilly
Correction... Artists couldn't care less about "complainers"Originally Posted by SnakeMenPriest
Artists don't need "complainers" to improve in thier craft.
Artists can ignore the "complainers" all they want and have every right to.
Artists NEED more honest critiques.
There's a huge difference between a "complainer" and a "critique".
With honest critiques, an artist will grow and improve in his or her craft.
Listening to complaints and other's subjective opinions can only confuse and discourage an artist, and will often do more damage than good.
Artists also need praise, they need to know that what they are doing is being appreciated. I agree that they don't need a lot of praise most of the time, as that definately does lead to big egos.
I also agree that this board tends to give out too much praise to just anyone. However reality check here... that's in part of what makes this board so friendly and why there are so many "friends" here.
So in my opinion, there must be a healthy balance of both positive praise and honest critique for an artist to expect to go on and improve and grow. And that it should be used with the artist in mind... is that artist new to art? Or a seasoned artist? Are they improving their craft? If so that should absolutely be praised. Or is it a seasoned artist that is just doing the same old painting over and over again? They probably need some more honest critiques methinks.
In the end... ask yourself when you go to dish out your opinion... is it just your opinion? Or are you honestly trying to help the artist by giving an honest critique?
Because who is to say that just your opinion is so much holier than the artist's who worked, sweated, bled and labored on the art? Hmmmm?

He-Man's cotsume isnt that much more revealing than the standard fuzzy underpants costume. I don't see what the fuss is about.
"Ignorance more frequently begets confidence than does knowledge." - Dr. Richard Dawkins
First, SMP, Id like you to list the names we created for this story that you think are cornier than Stinkor, Stridor, Spikor, or Man-E-Faces.
gbagok is pushing the line. You can plainly see that one move by a weapon and the story goes X.
I am not pushing the line. Hes not going commando under there, sorry if thats all you can imagine. Under the main torso armor, hes wearing a neck-to-groin leotard held together by those black staps, and its for maximum agility.
That doesn't answer anything.
It answers your whole complaint about the names, particularly those ending in OR.
You didn't answer everything! You at least put effort to make different versions of the Targan and Oberan guards. There's only one Repton guard.
I take offense to your ignoring that I drew three distinctly different Repton guards. Im sorry that I was not anal retentive enough to label Guard on the Reptal Rider and the one named only as a Repton. Also, those are scales, not lips. And your bias against any potentially human features on a Repton is most distressing.
SnakeMen are different. They don't have the constantly censored parts thatr Eternians have.
I guess they are different to call them Men when they apparently have no genitalia.
MotU was designed for all ages. Thus, MotU Stories must reflect that.
I think our story does. Most children dont have filthy imaginations like you have apparently. And if they do, they could probably make the same point about the regular He-Man wearing that pouch over his loin cloth like those worn with a Scottish Kilt to keep it from doing a Marilyn Monroe and revealing the family jewels.
I resent that. The Reptilians had Preternia under peace and tranquility until the Eternians took over. Now there are wars and slavery because of that.
Of course not! I just think that if anything can work, Serpos has to do it, nothing else.
Fundamentalist propaganda, spread by the power hungry religious fanatics of Serpos who are trying to rewrite history. Your Peoples well-documented intolerance of non-snake peoples proves your true nature, as does your persecution of five-toed Reptons. Will you hate on Snake Face for not have a more pronounced snout too? Next youll blame Serposs numerous defeats on King Hsss and his medallion.
Define what's under "Expected".
I think anything that starts with your own words I expected counts.
No he didn't, but if Tom Clancy did write one, he'd use that name.
Cool, then the guys who used it for the MOTU magazine could probably sue him. At least our use of the title is a deliberate homage.
Oh, Definitely:Comments like this are exactly what's wrong here. Artists NEED more complainers and less praisers; because THAT's how artists get better. Constantly saying "This is awesome!" "You are the best!" "More!" And other blind praises only inflate egos, not improve artistic ability! --SMP[/QUOTE]
Any feedback at all is welcome by me, but Baena is right: valid criticisms are helpful, but not negativity for the sake of negativity. Complaining about names ending in -OR in a MOTU fan fic just seems silly to me. But sometimes, there is just no accounting for Taste, hence the reason not even the official stuff is liked by all fans.
I'm not teasing, but I'm applying it to a character who is not She-Ra exactly. It's more like when I used the Movie Sorceress's design for Kodak Ungor (sorry if I still don't have that spelling right).Originally Posted by Abby

Okay, sure.Originally Posted by Predabot
Marlena knowing that Adam is He-man?? You foo! That one was reserved for when he leaves Eternia for the far, far future!
Well assuming that Adam suddenly drops that bomb on them before leaving home in the new continuity as well, Id say Marlena plays dumb to prevent Randor from feeling totally lied to by everyone. The obligations she speaks of in Slave City might have something to do with it too. But also, I feel Marlena was hinted to have known the secret in the Filmation series before NA tried to ruin that, and Id like to make Marlena interesting again as she was far too bland in the new cartoon. This is the mother of the Most Powerful Man in the Universe. She should be at least as interesting as Dunes Lady Jessica. I might not be good enough to accomplish that, but thats what Id like to see anyway. And I think her knowing the secret all along is a big step in that direction.
And... Regal Battle Armour He-mans patched together pants! It just doesn't seem to rime quite right...
He may be more regal, but hes still based on a barbarian theme. This felt to me like the ideal alternative to bare-legged He-Man in order to preserve the rugged look weve seen on He-Man and King Grayskull so far.
Sorry for that. Just having fun.Originally Posted by Neo

I have read almost all the comments in this topic and can say that some of the complains and suggestions are good . If the future of the site is to be paid, so lots of good players I know will not be playing in here anymore. I think the administration has to take people's suggestions in here under serious consideration.

But, I think the VIPs are getting more and more power over the non-VIPs, and I think VIPs and NON-VIPs need a fair chance to earn cubits .

So in the end, un experienced players wil be forced to go and buy cubits. Is that what chesscube wants?
But I want to cheer for the guy who upgraded white VIPs to full VIPs. Good job on making it possible to get VIP . Make it fairer for the non-VIPs though!

Molecular Cloning has served as the foundation of technical expertise in labs worldwide for 30 years. No other manual has been so popular, or so influential. Molecular Cloning, Fourth Edition, by the celebrated founding author Joe Sambrook and new co-author, the distinguished HHMI investigator Michael Green, preserves the highly praised detail and clarity of previous editions and includes specific chapters and protocols commissioned for the book from expert practitioners at Yale, U Mass, Rockefeller University, Texas Tech, Cold Spring Harbor Laboratory, Washington University, and other leading institutions. The theoretical and historical underpinnings of techniques are prominent features of the presentation throughout, information that does much to help trouble-shoot experimental problems.
For the fourth edition of this classic work, the content has been entirely recast to include nucleic-acid based methods selected as the most widely used and valuable in molecular and cellular biology laboratories.
Core chapters from the third edition have been revised to feature current strategies and approaches to the preparation and cloning of nucleic acids, gene transfer, and expression analysis. They are augmented by 12 new chapters which show how DNA, RNA, and proteins should be prepared, evaluated, and manipulated, and how data generation and analysis can be handled.
The new content includes methods for studying interactions between cellular components, such as microarrays, next-generation sequencing technologies, RNA interference, and epigenetic analysis using DNA methylation techniques and chromatin immunoprecipitation. To make sense of the wealth of data produced by these techniques, a bioinformatics chapter describes the use of analytical tools for comparing sequences of genes and proteins and identifying common expression patterns among sets of genes.
Building on thirty years of trust, reliability, and authority, the fourth edition of Molecular Cloning is the new gold standardthe one indispensable molecular biology laboratory manual and reference source.
Highlights of the new edition:
Praise for the previous edition:
Any basic research laboratory using molecular biology techniques will benefit from having a copy on hand of the newly published Third Edition of Molecular Cloning: A Laboratory Manual...the first two editions of this book have been staples of molecular biology with a proven reputation for accuracy and thoroughness. The Scientist
In every kitchen there is at least one indispensable cookbook...Molecular Cloning: A Laboratory Manual fills the same niche in the laboratory (with) information to help both the inexperienced and the advanced user. (It) has once again established its primacy as the molecular laboratory manual and is likely to be found on lab benches...around the world. —Trends in Neurosciences
Molecular Cloning: A Laboratory Manual has always been the laboratory mainstay for protocols and techniques. It has a pure-bred ancestry, and the new edition does not disappoint. (It) includes information panels at the end of each chapter that describe the principles behind the protocols.... The addition of this information extends Molecular Cloning from an essential laboratory resource into a new realm, one merging the previous prototype with a modern molecular monograph...the next generation of Molecular Cloning not only carries on the proud heritage of the first two editions but also admirably expands on that tradition to provide a truly essential laboratory manual. —Trends in Microbiology
In science...speed matters and credibility matters. And compared to banking on...an anonymous contributor in an online discussion group, youd be better off trusting Michael Green and Joseph Sambrook. When skimming through the pages of Molecular Cloning, it is impossible not to gain new insights that will push your experiments forward.

There are numerous recording of Surya Grahan, or Solar Eclipse, in Hindu scriptures. The most famous being the Suryagrahan during the famous Mahabharata war. Usually, Hindus do not perform any work during Surya Grahan and they purify themselves by taking a bath and by chanting mantras. A complete fast is undertaken by many Hindus during the period. In Hindu religion, taking a holy dip at sacred rivers and tirths on the Surya Grahan day is considered highly auspicious.
Ancient sages and texts like Brahman Siddhanta restrict viewing the eclipse – one should look at an eclipse through a cloth or a reflection of it. A pregnant woman should never look directly at an eclipse.
Mantras Chanted during Surya Grahan
Some of the important mantras that are chanted during the Surya Grahan include:
Gayatri Mantra
Ashtakshara Mantra dedicated to Shri Krishna. Ashtakshara mantra is 'Shri Krishna ha sharnam mama.' Astakshari Mantra is also taken as 'Om Namoh Narayan Na Yah.'
Mahamrityunjay Mantra is also chanted during eclipse.
Other mantras chanted are Surya Kavach Strotra and Aditya Hridaya Strotram
It is important that one chants mantra, or remember god in any form, at this time to keep calm and the aura clean.
Hindu Temples Remain Closed
All Hindu Temples remain closed during Surya Grahan. Temples open only after proper rituals are performed to get rid of the ill effects of the Surya Grahan. However, some Lord Shiva temples remain open during Surya Grahan as Lord Shiva is considered as 'Layakara,' who Himself is an embodiment of darkness.
Fasting During Surya Grahan
Adult Hindus stop eating 12 hours before a solar eclipse. Children, old people and those who are ill stop eating 3 hours before the beginning of a solar eclipse. If the solar eclipse ends after sunset, then people fast during night and consume food only next day morning.
One should not take food at the time of Grahan because it is said that at this time the most harmful rays from the sun can be seen and absorbed.
Pregnant Woman and Surya Grahan
Normally at the time of Surya Grahan, pregnant women are supposed to not come out of the house, with no sunlight entering either by doors or windows. This is to avoid harmful rays. You can find more detail regarding Surya Grahan and Pregnancy in this article.

OpenEmbedded Developers' Meeting 2010 will be in Cambridge, UK on the 29th and 30th of October. This is after http://www.embeddedlinuxconference.com/elc_europe10/index.html and will be held in the same place, the University Arms Hotel (http://www.devere.co.uk/our-locations/university-arms).
All developers and other interested parties are welcome.
Call ... if you get hopelessly lost.
Due to restricted space at the venue, the number of attendees is strictly limited.
Agenda Suggestions
- FM: I would like to suggest a discussion on recipe quality and how to improve it. I must say that I am somewhat disappointed by the number of recipes that do not fetch or do not patch. How are we going to handle this
- FM: related to the previous: how to deal with orphaned recipes, distros and machines
- FM: suggest to re-institute the MAINTAINERS field, at least for distro and machine conf files but preferably also in recipes. Currently it is often not clear who maintains what
- FM: review/commit/revert policy (e.g. formalize the suggestion that NAKs need to be motivated and that submitted patches can be pushed if there is no neg feedback within say 2 weeks (even if there is no feedback at all).
- FM: maybe discuss the testing branch/procedures
- Khem: Libtool 2.4 upgrade.
- Khem: bitbake world. What do we do ?
- Khem: patchwork workflow
- Khem: Security updates how to handle
- Khem: Make LICENSE field mandatory in recipes
- Khem: Time based releases ( one a year)
- Hrw: recipes/ subdirectories (all "inherit opie" or "inherit palmtop" -> recipes/opie/ dir etc)
- RP: srctree, srcrev mess, pain with linux-wrs - time to rework the scm fetchers?
OpenEmbedded eV General Assembly
This is the formal eV meeting. Principal topics are financial reports, the board election, and voting in of new members. ...
London Stansted airport is the nearest to Cambridge with regular service. (There is a small airport in Cambridge itself but I don't think any scheduled airlines operate from there anymore.)
For those travelling from Europe, Stansted is about a 30-minute train ride from Cambridge city centre and is served by Air Berlin, Ryanair and Germanwings among others. Luton airport is about 1 hour away by bus and is served by Easyjet.
For those travelling from further away, most long-haul flights arrive at Heathrow or Gatwick airports (although there is some transatlantic service into Stansted). Both Heathrow and Gatwick are about 2 hours from Cambridge by train or bus: the train is quicker but involves several changes in London, whereas the bus is slow but cheaper and less complicated.
If arriving at LHR airport, take the Piccadilly line from the Underground station and ride it all the way to Kings Cross St Pancras. Ascend to street level, follow signs to Kings Cross mainline station (not St Pancras: the two stations are different although they share a subway stop) and then look for trains to Cambridge or Kings Lynn on the departure board. There are usually two fast services and two slow services to Cambridge per hour: the slow trains are often overtaken by the fast ones en route so it may be best to wait for a fast service even if this is not the next to depart.
If arriving at LCY, take the DLR to Bank, then change to the Northern Line northbound. From Kings Cross St Pancras, proceed as for LHR, above.
Alternatively you can take the Eurostar to London St Pancras, which is 50 minutes from Cambridge by train.

Enrichment Federal Credit Union is contributing $5,000 to the "Making the Critical Difference" campaign to provide grants to Oak Ridge public school teachers, an ORPSEF release stated.
Enrichment Federal Credit Union is contributing $5,000 to the "Making the Critical Difference" campaign to provide grants to Oak Ridge public school teachers, an ORPSEF release stated.
The Oak Ridge Public Schools Education Foundation is conducting the campaign to raise $500,000 for grant awards of $100,000 each for five years.
According to the release, the Foundation's board believes these grants have a strong supporting role in sustaining the tradition of excellence in Oak Ridge schools — as well as rewarding teachers for innovative ideas.
"Enrichment Federal Credit Union is very supportive of sustaining the excellent educational opportunities within the Oak Ridge school system," said Wayne Hope, president and chief executive officer of Enrichment Federal Credit Union.
"By assisting with the mission of the Foundation, our support allows the credit union to be a part of the bright future of our community"
The credit union has made a five-year pledge of $1,000 per year.
Since 2005, the Education Foundation's annual competitive grants program has awarded more than $322,000 in grants to more than 100 teachers, with some grants funding programs or equipment in multiple classrooms.
Those grants, however, have funded only about one-third of the proposals from Oak Ridge teachers.
"We appreciate the five-year commitment Enrichment Federal Credit Union has made to this campaign," said Lila Metcalf, director of the Oak Ridge Public Schools Education Foundation.
"The Foundation's grants program will continue to provide support for teachers and students in Oak Ridge public schools, thanks to strong community support for education in Oak Ridge."
The ORPSEF is seeking the community's help in ensuring that annual grant awards continue to support teachers and students and continue to make a critical difference to our schools.
Those interested in learning more about the "Making the Critical Difference" campaign or in making a donation may call (865) 241-3667 or contact Lila Metcalf at firstname.lastname@example.com.
The Education Foundation, a non-profit organization founded in 2000, provides funds beyond public tax dollars for education, raising funds through grants and private donations to invest in enhanced educational programming, innovative technology, and state-of-the-art facilities for teachers and students.

Massage FX Massage Kit
Massage FX Cream Paraben Free is specifically formulated to provide maximum glide without leaving an oily residue, it is as good for deep tissue work as it is for a light relaxing massage. A blend of sweet almond oil and sunflower oil, it is infused with the botanical extracts of ivy, arnica, and aloe. Formulated to help reduce linen stains. Customize FX Cream with a few drops of your favorite essential oil for a delightful aromatherapy session.
Massage FX Lotion Paraben Free is a light formula that provides extended glide. Absorbs better than most creams and oils. Perfect for facial massage or other areas. Therapists love using this moisturizing massage lotion because it also performs well on the face. This lotion is a non-staining formula that can be customized for your massage by adding many essential oils!
Massage FX Oil Paraben Free is ideal for those who love the soothing properties of natural almond oil. Enhanced with Vitamin E, this light blend is perfect for a full body massage or when you want to create maximum friction. Customize your massage by adding choice essential oils for a simultaneous aromatherapy session.Note: Use caution when laundering linens that have been exposed to oils. Oil products are potentially combustible when exposed to heat in the dryer. Consult dryer manufacturer's guidelines for drying linens that have been exposed to oils.
Kit Includes:
The oil and lotion worked quite nicely, I would recommend them; the cream was messy, sticky, unusable for most persons, and not worth purchasing in the future. So, I would recommend the Oil and Lotion, but not the Cream
Worked with this product as a massage student. A little goes a long way. 11 months later, I still have half a bottle of the lotion & oil & 3/4 of the cream.Great product!
FX dual purpose cream has such a nice glide. I like the way it spreads even better as it warms up. And it has such nice botanicals ingredients. Well done, FX!
I really like FX products. They are clean feeling and are moisture rich. A nice, easy product to work with; good glide & unscented. It is nice to have the option of adding scented essential oils to their product.
I love how even my most sensitive skin clients love this product. I love the smell, the feel, and the fact that it doesn't go rancid after a short amount of time, like other products do. It's the only massage lotion I will use.

Booking Wedding Bands
What is a wedding band?
A wedding band is a group of musicians who specialise in playing live music for weddings. There's a huge range of wedding bands you can choose from, depending on the style of wedding you're planning and the vibe you'd like to create, including:
- Rock and pop function bands
- Upbeat and Dixieland jazz bands
- Acoustic and roaming bands
- Soul bands
- Rat Pack and swing bands
Each type of band will help you to create a personalised ambiance for your special day, be it the warm, intimate feel of an acoustic and roaming band, the light, romantic atmosphere of an upbeat jazz band, or the fun, rocking feel of a wedding party band.
Many bands offer pared-down or acoustic ensembles to entertain your guests in the daytime, and can provide music tailored specially for your romantic bridal procession, as well as headlining the party as your main evening entertainment.
Offering a self-contained entertainment package, wedding bands will provide everything they need for their performance, including sound and lighting equipment, so there's no need to hire any additional kit.
Their sets are specifically tailored to weddings, and they will often travel large distances to perform.

Popular types of wedding band available in Swansea
1. Rock and pop wedding party bands
Often the main evening entertainment at weddings, rock and pop wedding party bands will perform a lively and dynamic set, perfect to fill the dancefloor at your evening reception. Most bands will offer a range of classic and modern rock and pop music, from the 1950s to current chart hits – tracks that the majority of your wedding guests will know and want to party to! They will cover music from the likes of The Beatles, The Jam, Stevie Wonder, Bruno Mars and Taylor Swift.
Visit our Rock and Pop bands page
2. Upbeat jazz bands
Upbeat jazz bands perform classic toe-tapping jazz music for a happy, sophisticated and romantic mood at your wedding celebrations. Sometimes featuring a singer and sometimes instrumental, these bands can range in styles from Gypsy Jazz, Latin Jazz, and modern pop songs with a vintage Jazz twist. For a more standard approach, you can expect traditional jazz tunes like I Get A Kick Out Of You, Cheek to Cheek, My Baby Just Cares for Me, I Can't Give You Anything But Love, from artists such as Billie Holliday, Nina Simone, Frank Sinatra, and Ella Fitzgerald.
Visit our upbeat bands collection
3. Dixieland jazz bands
Incorporating traditional jazz, Charleston music and the sounds of New Orleans, Dixieland jazz bands traditionally play over a 2-beat rhythm, blending trumpets, trombones, and clarinets with a rhythm section. Usually, one instrument will play a melody and the other instruments improvise around that, giving a really loose and fun performance style. You can expect a Dixieland jazz band to cover Dixieland artists like Louis Armstrong, Fats Waller, Kid Ory and Duke Ellington.
4. Acoustic & roaming bands
Whatever atmosphere you'd like to create, acoustic and roaming bands can offer a variety of engaging unplugged musical vibes, ranging from chilled-out to lively and high-tempo, and everywhere in between! Acoustic and roaming bands can be an exciting, quirky, and interactive option for your wedding. Always warm and intimate, they're perfect for a relaxed wedding ceremony, a laidback, playful drinks reception, and a fun evening wedding reception. Unbound by cables, some bands wander among your guests as they perform. Some offer the option of 'jukebox'-style song requests off the cuff, and exciting musical mash-ups, getting everyone involved! From traditional guitar-based acoustic bands to a capella barbershop quartets, mariachi, and bluegrass bands, our artists cover a broad range of styles and genres. Most will also include versions of popular chart music, to amuse and entertain, from Bon Jovi and The Beatles to Lady Gaga and Justin Timberlake.
Visit our acoustic bands page & roaming bands collection
5. Soul bands
With origins in RnB (rhythm and blues), jazz, and gospel music, the music that soul bands perform combine tantalising tempos and strong, heart-felt vocals. A soul band will perform songs from artists such as James Brown, Little Richard, Jackie Wilson, Aretha Franklin, Marvin Gaye, and Otis Redding. Most will also perform a soulful twist on modern classics, and tunes by artists like Amy Winehouse, Bruno Mars, Beyoncé and Rihanna.
6. Rat Pack and swing bands
If you're looking for a cool, modern vintage wedding theme, Rat Pack and swing bands are ideal. Equally smooth and glitzy, these bands will cover Rat Pack classics by Frank Sinatra, Sammy Davis Junior and Dean Martin, and – with one foot in the jazz camp – they will also perform a range of timeless hits spanning the last 70 years, including music by Louis Armstrong, Nina Simone, and Glenn Miller. Most will perform modern hits in a swing style, such as Michael Bublé and Robbie Williams, which you and your guests will love! You can choose to have the full, big band experience to raise the roof, or opt for a toned-down version, according to the vibe you'd like to create at your wedding.
Is a wedding band suitable for my event?
Typically the headline evening entertainment, wedding bands can provide the perfect atmosphere for various stages of your wedding day, offering a complete wedding entertainment solution. Most can offer smaller ensembles or soloists to play romantic acoustic music for the procession, ceremony, the signing of the register, and the recession. They can also perform live background music for the wedding drinks reception and wedding breakfast, where you and your guests can happily chat and enjoy each other's company.
The evening entertainment can be turned up a few notches, with additional members and instruments added to perform a dynamic and energetic party set. A wedding band can play music for the all-important first dance too, with many offering the option to learn a special song of your choice, given enough notice. They can also provide a DJ option so that you and your guests can party all night.
The benefit of booking one band for the whole day's celebration is that costs and logistics are minimal, particularly compared with the option of hiring several separate performers for your wedding day.
Space considerations at your event
A typical 4-piece band will need a space of roughly 4m width × 3m depth to perform comfortably. For approximate requirements, see 'How much space will a wedding band need?', below.
Volume - How loud is a wedding band?
To some extent, the volume of your band will be dictated by the line-up, instruments and room acoustics at your venue. Live bands can give exhilarating evening performances, and their volume often reflects this – usually in the region of 95 dB – 110 dB. The sound will obviously be quieter if you opt for a smaller, pared down or acoustic version for your daytime entertainment.
If your wedding venue has volume restrictions or has a sound limiter fitted, many wedding bands offer an electronic drum kit option which can lessen the overall volume of the band. You can find our sound limiter friendly bands here.
If offering the option to perform background music or music for a wedding ceremony, the musicians will play in a tone and volume to match with your event needs.
How long will a wedding band play for?
Our wedding bands usually offer two 60-minute performances, though many can perform for longer if needed. You could spread out a two-hour performance by splitting it into three 40-minute sets. Most bands are flexible to fit in with your evening, and will usually take a break of around 15 minutes between sets, during which time they will provide background music from an MP3 player or laptop.
If providing the evening entertainment, a wedding band would typically arrive at 6pm, get set up and perform that all-important sound check by 7.30pm to 8pm, get changed and ready to start the first performance by around 9pm. The second performance would then start around 10.30pm, until a normal curfew of midnight. Many wedding bands offer longer performances or DJ sets at an additional cost, including finishing times of 1am and 2am. You can find the booking options on each wedding band's profile page. These times serve as an example – the band will always liaise with you and will tailor what they are doing on the night to your particular needs.
How much space will a wedding band need?
The table below shows approximately how much space wedding bands of different sizes require:
|Size of Wedding Band
|Performance Space Required
|3-piece band
|3 x 3 metres
|4-piece band
|4 x 3 metres
|5 and 6-piece band
|5 x 3 metres
|7-piece band and bigger
|5/6 x 4 metres
How long will it take for a wedding band to set up?
Depending how close to the performance space a wedding band can park, unloading, setting up and performing their sound-check will take around 60 – 90 minutes.
Some busy city hotels require bands to load in via a supplier's entrance, using a shared staff elevator, which can increase set up times.
Following their performance, it takes a wedding band around 45 – 60 minutes to pack down and load out.
What equipment will a wedding band need?
Most wedding bands need:
- parking provision with easy access to the venue
- a secure, lockable changing room
- sturdy, armless chairs for acoustic musicians
- a dedicated, suitably-sized, safe, dry, flat performance area or stage
- if performing outside – by prior agreement – they will need cover from the ever-changing elements to protect from either direct sunlight or any chance of rain!
- good lighting, especially if playing in a marquee, for example
- a minimum of four 13 amp power sockets, depending on the line-up
- refreshments – soft drinks and a hot meal, for example, depending on how long you've booked them for
Wedding bands provide their own PA sound system, microphones, backline amplifiers, and stage lighting.
If you are planning a large wedding with over 200 guests, you may need to hire a separate PA system to fill the large venue. Your dedicated Entertainment Coordinator will be happy to discuss the requirements for specific wedding bands.
