From Goodreads: Around the world, black handprints are appearing on doorways, scorched there by winged strangers who have crept through a slit in the sky.
In a dark and dusty shop, a devil's supply of human teeth grown dangerously low.
And in the tangled lanes of Prague, a young art student is about to be caught up in a brutal otherwordly war.
Meet Karou. She fills her sketchbooks with monsters that may or may not be real; she's prone to disappearing on mysterious "errands"; she speaks many languages not all of them human; and her bright blue hair actually grows out of her head that color. Who is she? That is the question that haunts her, and she's about to find out.
When one of the strangers—beautiful, haunted Akiva—fixes his fire-colored eyes on her in an alley in Marrakesh, the result is blood and starlight, secrets unveiled, and a star-crossed love whose roots drink deep of a violent past. But will Karou live to regret learning the truth about herself?
I really don't have much to say about the writing in this one. It's one that I hear highly praised from many people, and I certainly enjoyed reading it, but nothing jumped out at me in the writing. It didn't stand out above and beyond any other YA fantasy I read this year, but there were also no problems with it. It's another case of being so into the story that the writing didn't stick out one way or the other.
I do think the author did an exceptional job of capturing a unique voice with Karou and Zuzana in particular, but I wasn't a huge fan of Akiva's dialogue. He didn't stand out to me the way Karou and Zuzana did.
Entertainment Value
Mind-blowing. I was SO INTO this story. I loved the characters, especially Zuzana, Karou's best friend. I think the voices were fresh and original. In a lot of YA I think you could switch characters around and the dialogue would still match. You could put one author's character in another author's book and no one would ever know the difference. But Karou is totally unique.
I also think the story itself is fascinating and new in a genre that is populated by so many similar stories. As a bonus, there is no love triangle, which was very refreshing.
I highly recommend reading it, especially as a "fun" read. Make sure you have plenty of reading time on your hands because you won't want to put it down. And be prepared for a bit of a wait - the second book is out, but the final book in the series won't be released until next year.

Puzzle Quest 2 CEO/Creative Lead Interview
Comments are Closed
Displaying 1–5 of 5
I have to give a shout out to Toy Soldiers Facebook game, pretty good puzzle game surprisingly.
Posted: March 26, 2010 7:58 PM -
I LOVED Galactrix. I'm hoping they do a sequal to it too. PQ, sounded fun, but the scifi setting was more appealing to me, so I went that route instead. I'm glad to see developers going deeper into the "puzzle game" genre. There is a lot of potential there if you're creative enough... I'm looking forward to seeing what they come up with.

I can't wait, still playing the first. I really like that they've looked at the MMO genre with the different classes. Also like the sound of more mini games, keeps things varied. I thought Galactrix was good in it's own way but no way near as great as PQ was (dif story/dif game/gameplay really).

been waiting for this one/ didn't really like Galactrix

This fall, prepare to begin nibbling on sponge cake as you waste away again in Margaritaville
Remember a few months ago when we told you about the upcoming Grateful Dead online game? Well, that's finally coming to fruition in August, but it looks like it will have a little competition from everyone's favorite party-man Jimmy Buffett. That's right, if there was ever a song we wanted to live inside, it's "Margaritaville," and thanks to THQ and Exploding Barrel Games, we'll get our chance this fall.
Margaritaville Online is a Facebook and iOS experience that's promising users a chance to escape into a 3D paradise inspired by the words and lifestyle of perpetually Hawaiian shirted singer-songwriter Jimmy Buffett.
While every other game on Facebook is tasking you with fake-working on your fake-farm or as the head of a fake-zombie-uprising or whatever, Margaritaville Online will be giving everyone what we really need -- a place online to chill out in flip flops by the pool with a summer beverage in our hands and a band on the stage playing "Last Mango in Paris."
It's not just going to be a destination spot for bored alcoholics to gather together and compare short-shorts, though -- users will have a chance to build their own bars, form bands, throw parties and take off into the open-world in search of adventure. Seriously, this sounds like the best kind of online experience ever.

We've been seeing plenty of musicians tapping into social networking as a means to express their brand more fully, including the above-mentioned Grateful Dead, Lady Gaga, Linkin Park and plenty others. But while they've all offered weird, twisted or often quirky worlds to explore, Jimmy Buffett's "Margaritaville" is really the only world we earnestly want to live in, not just visit. We'd take an island paradise over working on Gaga's farm any day of the week.
Either way, it's clear we're seeing a bit of a transmedia revival when it comes to musicians implementing multimedia into their brands. While the '80s were full of weird arcade games, now we're seeing weird Facebook games or iOS apps. It's an interesting time we're living in -- but maybe being able to soak in some digital rays and down some binary drinks will help us deal with it all a bit better. If that doesn't convince you, just look at this screenshot.

Wrapped up for a cold winter's day, Paul Bettany enters the room wearing a flat cap and scarf. Being the well-bred young man he is, he removes his cap to reveal a shaven patch where his strawberry blond crop should be. "If I were bald, I would have no problem with it," he says, "but I find myself going, 'I'm not bald! It's for a part.'"
He is, in fact, playing the father of evolutionary theory, Charles Darwin, in Creation, in which he stars with his wife-of-five-years Jennifer Connelly, the first time the couple have featured in the same film since they met on the set of 2001's A Beautiful Mind.
Issues of baldness aside, this is the only time Bettany shows a shred of vanity in our encounter. He may have acted opposite Russell Crowe in both A Beautiful Mind and nautical yarn Master and Commander: the Far Side of the World, Harrison Ford in Firewall and Tom Hanks in The Da Vinci Code, but he is far removed from the world of alpha-male A-list stars. Bettany and his wife live in Vermont – with Connelly's 11 year-old son Kia, from a previous relationship, and their five year-old boy, Stellan – partly to keep the celebrity circus at bay. "We don't flirt with that world," he says, "or invite that attention into our lives."
Of late, Bettany admits he's started feeling happy in his work again. "For a while, I stopped enjoying making movies and I stopped enjoying acting, because I made a few decisions that I wish I hadn't made," he says. He won't specify – but you could take a guess that he didn't enjoy being refashioned as a romantic lead in 2004's Wimbledon. He's always been much better suited to disappearing into character roles – his alcoholic Chaucer in A Knight's Tale, his townsman in Dogville, even his self-flagellating monk in The Da Vinci Code. Now he says he's back on track. "I put it down to a few things. One is just my mood. The other is that I changed the criteria for myself. I just wanted to do lots of things."
That's certainly what's happened. Aside from playing Darwin, he has completed The Young Victoria, with Emily Blunt, in which he plays Lord Melbourne, the former Prime Minister who became the Queen's secretary and political tutor. Then there's Broken Lines, a London-set drama about two couples, in which he plays a misanthropic boxer suffering from a debilitating stroke. And last spring, he completed Legion, an apocalyptic kung-fu film with Dennis Quaid. "I'd never made an action movie before," he says. "It was a great experience. It felt fun to me. It was exactly what it was and I loved doing it."
Before that, he has two movies due in December. The first is The Secret Life of Bees, an adaptation of the novel by Sue Monk Kidd. Set in 1964 in South Carolina during the Civil Rights era, it tells the story of a 14-year-old girl named Lily (Dakota Fanning), who flees her abusive father, pear farmer T Ray (Bettany), to wind up on a honey farm run by three sisters (Queen Latifah, songstress Alicia Keys, and Sophie Okonedo). While Bettany's role is small, he fiercely punctures the sentimentality of the film with a brutish performance.
It was the lack of redemption that drew Bettany to the character. In his own mind, he's just a businessman trying to make ends meet. "If he employed white people to work on a pear farm, he would have to pay a lot of money, so why would he ever bother to employ white people when black people are so much cheaper? I don't think he would think of himself as a racist. I think he would see himself as somebody who was very nice to those whom he had working for him. And there's not a point in the movie where he suddenly understands it in a 20th century way, where he goes, 'Oh, I see what I've done wrong.'"
Bettany only appears in a few scenes, but his commitment certainly impressed director Gina Prince-Bythewood. "His process is so intense," she says. "He's the one that put the red sunburn on his arms. To be around that energy is an incredible thing." You might think this came from his upbringing. Both his mother and father were actors in their day, while the latter, Thane Bettany, also taught drama. His grandmother Olga Gwynne also acted. Yet curiously, when growing up, Bettany wanted to be a musician. Dreaming of being John Lennon, he used to busk on Westminster Bridge, often singing his own songs.
When he was 19, he switched to acting, training at the Drama Centre before gaining his first stage role in Stephen Daldry's revival of An Inspector Calls. Twelve months at the RSC followed, and by 1997 Bettany had made his screen debut in the film version of Bent. Three years later, he made his breakthrough film, Gangster No 1, playing the psychotic mobster of the title. "I find it hard to believe it was only eight years ago," Bettany notes. "It's weird in that respect, how hugely different my life is now. But that's not just to do with some bogus sense of having achieved something in your career. That's largely to do with being a dad and a husband, which is so entirely different from what my life was back then."
In the past, Bettany has said he was obsessed with having lots of children – a consequence of the tragic death of his younger brother Matthew, who died from a fall when Bettany was 16. I wonder now how Bettany feels, having fulfilled his dream of parenthood. "I believe it changes you entirely," he says, in particular pointing to his new attitude to work. "You realise [you have] the privilege of being in the stupidly fortunate position of earning a lot of money in a very short period of time. So the actual privilege is that you can then take time off – and if you don't, you're a fool. You're earning all this money to support children whom you then don't see, which is absurd."
It's why Bettany was drawn to children's fantasy tale Inkheart, the second film he has out next month. With a host of British stars – Andy Serkis, Helen Mirren and Jim Broadbent included – the film shows what happens when a series of medieval characters are breathed into life from a storybook. "It's really nice to see these fantastic people and creatures in a very real world. Usually it's the opposite way round." It is based on the book by Cornelia Funke, which by coincidence Bettany was reading to his eldest son when he was offered the role of the fire-eater Dustfinger. "It made me a complete hero!" he says. So was it nice to make a film his kids could see? "Yeah, that's really lovely. I don't want them seeing me naked and whipping myself in The Da Vinci Code!"
For an actor with a reputation for taking himself very seriously, Bettany's foray into the Harry Potter market will do him no end of good. Likewise, working with his wife on Creation – she plays Darwin's spouse – seems to have mellowed him. "We were a bit concerned that we wouldn't be able to do it," he says. "The night before we started filming, we looked at each other and said, 'What are we going to do if the camera rolls and we just start giggling?' She and I know each other in an extraordinarily intimate way, obviously. We're not just husband and wife. We're also parents of children and you really find out about each other when you do the job of parenting. But it was the easiest it's ever been, ever, making a film."
Quite what making films like this has done to his standing in the studio system is anyone's guess. "I don't know," shrugs Bettany. "I'm really bad at knowing what my position is." He doesn't seem as hungry for Hollywood as he once was. "Time can slip by very quickly while just being at home playing with the kids," he says. "I hope in the future I'll be able to pick and choose more carefully." He trails off for a second. "I'm sure some people have an absolute grasp of where they are in their careers. I just don't think about it that much."
'The Secret Life of Bees' opens on 5 December; 'Inkheart' opens on 12 December

B-Stock Pedals
Pro Guitar Shop wants to help save you a little cash money on your journey to sonic utopia—we're now offering B-stock pedals for purchase! What's a "B-stock" pedal, you ask?!

B-stock pedals come with a full manufacturer's warranty, but please note that B-stocks are not covered by PGS' 1 Year Warranty and: all B-stock sales are FINAL.

Wintertime can be dangerous for travelers. Not only do you sometimes have to contend with deteriorating road conditions caused by snow and ice, but life-threatening situations can arise if you find yourself stranded on the road for a significant amount of time. Here are some tips to help you prepare and make your wintertime travels safer.
It is always helpful to have the following in your car in case of an emergency:
• A cell phone, portable charger, and extra batteries.
• Jumper cables.
Johne's (pronounced Yo-knees) disease is a chronic disease of severe, watery diarrhea, and weight loss in adult cattle caused by a bacterium. These bacteria are very hardy due to a protective cell wall that can withstand harsh conditions and allows survival for long periods in the environment. Once the bacteria gain entry into an animal, the organism lives permanently within the cells of the large intestine where it multiplies and is then "shed" in the feces in large numbers.

USCIS has announced it expects that all 65,000 "regular" and all 20,000 U.S. master's degree H-1B slots will be filled in the first five days of filing (April 1 – 5) for the first time since 2008. The government estimate was made after consultation with various stakeholders and announced March 15.
Because of the expected high demand for H-1Bs, along with historic usage of the Premium Processing service, USCIS also announced that it will suspend the expedite service for cap-subject H-1Bs (including U.S. master's cap cases) until April 15.
"Premium Processing" is accessed by filing form I-907 and paying $1225. It requires the government to adjudicate an eligible application in 15 calendar days (although the "adjudication" could be to ask for additional evidence and then a new 15-day clock starts when the additional evidence is received). Normally the clock starts on the day the application is received by the Service Center.
For cap-subject H-1Bs only the clock will not start until April 15. Premium Processing requests maybe filed concurrently with the H-1B application or may be filed when the case has been receipted. Delaying the expedite service will allow the government to focus on receipting cases and allocating workload.
Premium Processing will continue to be available for other types of applications during the April 1 – 15 period.
If more than 65,000 "regular" H-1Bs (those in which the beneficiary does not have a U.S.-granted master's degree) are received during the first five days of filing, the USCIS will conduct a lottery to chose those to be adjudicated. Those not chosen will be returned to the applicant, including the filing fees.
The H-1B cap count has proved difficult to manage in the past. In part, this is because applications are required to be filed in one of two Service Centers, making count coordination challenging.
The Immigration Department at Davis Brown has put into place a multi-layered review procedure to assure that H-1B cap applications will not be rejected for any reason except the lottery, which we cannot control. We have been working to complete all applications well in advance of the filing deadline. If you wish to make an H-1B application for April 1, please contact us as soon as possible as the required pre-filing procedure takes at least one week.

Tropical Fish Keeping - Aquarium fish care and resources
- Beginner Planted Aquarium
- - Amazon Biotope
Amazon Biotope Alright! All you plant aficionados gather 'round, I got a little something I need from you guys. Today I had gone through the 7 hour process of getting my new (used) 75 gallon tank, cleaning it up, and putting in my sand substrate. It was filthy. It's got an Aquaclear 500 on it until I can find a good canister. It's in the process of cycling...just started today. So what I need assistance on is...plants!!! I got plenty of space to work with...864 square inches to be exact. I'm looking for a wide variety of plants...from low shrubby plants to giant tank busters. So please, please, please offer me plant suggestions that are found in the Amazon. I'm looking more into a river set up here as well. All ideas will most likely be employed, so there are no wrong answers! Fire away! |
Ok, in that case on a 75g....something like this Handful Amazon Sword (Echinodorus bleheri), some Red Rubin's (E.Rubin) for color, def some Narrow Leaf Chain (E. tennelus) for the front "grassy" areas, some Broad Leaf Chain (E. quadricostatus) for the middle mixed in with some Klenier Bar sword. Alternative to the broad leaf chain you could do Sagittaria, grow a lil taller but does NOT grow/ spread as fast as broad leaf chain Maybe I'd toss in some Pennywort on the rear sides since they have nice vivid green color and round leaf's. And then maybe....just cause its me lol i'd put a red tiger lotus in there for color (which wouldn't be amazon style really but sure adds some nice coloration) You should find all these plants with pictures on here (or prop also in Byrons tanks I"m sure, I think he's got a Amazon set up too) Aquarium Plants And oh yea a bunch DW :-) And one's that's set up...PICTURESSSS please |
You know a good place that's got DW for cheap? That link you gave me comes up with a warning on my comp for low vendor reliability, so I'm a little leery on ordering from there. I'm hoping Byron would chime in as well ;) I'm gonna take a look at his tank. I like the plants you suggested so far...definitely adding them to my shopping list! Lighting: Light Output: 1600 Lumens Wattage: 40 Watts Kelvin: 2700K I have Room and equipment to add more lighting if needed as well. |
I ONLY gave you this link for its neat pictures...I buy my plants here Sweet Aquatics I love their quality & prices have ordered there several times so far always HAPPY :-) I find the Kelvin and the wattage pretty low on a 75g i'd do something like 2x30w or 1x60w and a K around 5-6500K. I donno what bulbs exactly you have there...but consider a trip to Lowes or homedepot and get you some Daylights rated @ 6500K and the needed wattage...otherwise this may be too little for your plants I'm afraid. |
Angel is correct, you need better light. The lower kelvin number (3400K) indicates mostly red and little or no blue in the colour spectrum, and you will not have good success with plants. I explain this is Part 4 of the sticky series above this section. The plants in my two Amazon setups are listed in the tank data. I can point them out in the photos if you ask. All the plants in both the 115g and 90g are from the Amazon basin. Byron. |
I can easily return the light bulb and get one of a higher Kelvin with no problem. I'll do so today. |
Your plants will thank you for it!!! And I mean really few bucks at the home store is DEF worth while it. I replace mine ~1x year and hand the used once that are not so great for plants any more off to folks around me with shop lights....works well for my neighbors and for my tanks and eliminates needless junk lol |
Sweet deal at home depot...they had a 2 pack for the 6500K bulbs for less than what I paid for for the one 2700K bulb. |

to be a substitute for modern medical care. Do not self-treat any
medical complaint without the guidance of a licensed health care
provider. While we usually think of the dandelion we
see growing freely in fields as a weed, especially when it pops
up on our lawns, this ubiquitous plant not only provides a tasty
sald green but has a strong diuretic effect, which can be
beneficial to liver function. Plant Facts Origin Components Indications Methods of Administration Decoction Tincture Root juice Spring tonic Wine To stimulate children's appetites For kidney and bladder stones For a coffee substitute For a mild, bitter cordial Healing Tea Mixtures For digestive problems Steep in 1 cup of water for about 10 minutes. Combined with
other medicinal plants, dandelion helps stimulate bile
production, promotes digestion and alleviates intestinal gas. For skin cleansing Steep in 1 cup of water for 10 minutes. You will need to drink
the tea daily for several weeks before the skin-clarifying effect
will become evident. For fluid retention Steep in 1 cup of water for 10 minutes. this tea promotes the
metabolism and stimulates the activity of the kidneys, thereby
reducing bloating and fluid retention. Liver Tea Combine ingredients in a saucepan and simmer for a couple of
minutes. Turn down heat and let steep for about 15 minutes.
Strain and drink at least a cup a day. Premenstrual Tea Combine herbs and water in a pot and bring to a boil. Turn off
heat and steep for at least 20 minutes. Strain. Drink at least 2
cups daily, as needed. This formula can also be taken as a
tincture; there are many commercial formulas available for
menstrual pain. To make your own tincture, use the same
proportion as for this tea. Sources:Dandelion
The word dandelion comes the French
"dent de lion," meaning lion's tooth, which is an
allusion to the plant's sharply pointed leaves. Despite its
fearsome name, dandelion is actually a friend to the body and is
used in many medicinal tea mixtures.
Dandelion, Taraxacum officinale, is
a member of the Composite family. The stems, which like the
leaves, yeild a milky substance, can reach a length of 16 inches.
The leaves taste bitter, while the roots are bittersweet. The
whole plant exudes a faint buttery-sharp odor.
Store dandelion root so that it is protected
from light and moisture. It will keep for about 3 years in the
whole, dried form only. If it is ground or powdered, its shelf
life is reduced to 1 year.
The dandelion is native to the entire
Northern Hemisphere. The plant grows almost everywhere - in
meadows, yards, gardens, between cobblestones and on old walls.
The plant contains bitters that stimulate
digestive secretions. Dandelion also contians triterpenes,
sterols, phenolic acids, coumarins and, in the leaves and
blossoms, flavonoids as well. Its remarkably high potassioum
content - up to 4.5% - makes it an excellent diuretic, since it
does not deplete the body of this essential mineral.
Because of its well-balanced
medicinal ingredients, the dandelion has played an important part
as a healing supplement in traditional medicine. It is a mild
stimulant for the gallbladder and liver, helping them get rid of
waste products and increasing bile flow; its effect on the liver
makes dandelion beneficial for treating gout, rheumatism
and skin diseases. Dandelion is useful in
treating acne, eczema and psoriasis,
as it reduces the body's efforts to eliminate toxins through the
skin. In addition, dandelion relieves digestive complaints, such
as bloating and flatulence; as
an aromatic bitter, it stimulates appetite and promotes
digestion. As a diuretic, the dandelion leaf alleviates fluid
Prepare 1-2 tsp. of finely chopped or
powdered root, with or without leaves, in 1 cup of cold water,
and bring it to a boil. Simmer gently for about 10 minutes;
strain. Drink 1 cup of this tea up to 3 times daily.
Prepare ⅔ oz. of dandelion root with 3 oz.
of alcohol (brandy or vodka). Let it stand for 4-6 weeks; filter.
Take 30 drops with a little water 3 times a day.
Simmer 1/3 oz. of chopped roots with 1 cup of
water for 15 minutes and then filter. Drink 2 cups of the juice
daily between meals.
The root juice and the tea decoction are
suitable for a spring or fall tonic, especially as a remedy for
liver or gallbladder dysfunction. Drink 1 cup of tea or 1 tbsp.
of juice twice a day for 4-6 weeks.
Let 1½ oz. of dried root steep in white
wine for about 10 days, then filter. Drink 4 oz. a day.
Dandelion tea can improve appetite in
children. However, because children often dislike dandelion's
bitter taste, you'll need to add dried apple pieces or orange
slices to the tea. Honey, instead of sugar, can be added for
additional sweetness. Have your children drink ½ cup of the tea
30 minutes before meals.
Eliminate small kidney and urethral stones
with this folk remedy: Pour 1 pt. of water over 2 tbsp. of
dandelion leaves and 1 tsp. of nettle leaves. Strain after 10
minutes, dilute with 1 qt. of hot water and drink within half an
hour. Repeat daily until the stone has been passed. It is best to
continue the treatment once a week to help prevent the formation
of new kidney and bladder stones.
Clean dandelion roots and cut them into small
pieces. Dry them in a warm oven, 150�F, with the door open about
2 inches to allow the air to circulate. Then roast the roots in a
pan at 325�F until brown, turning frequently. Grind them
immediately. Use 1 tsp. to brew 1 cup.
Remove a handful of fresh flower buds from
the leafy green plant and steep for 1 week in about 1 pt. clear
grain alcohol; strain. Dilute 1 tsp. of the cordial in herbal tea
and take after meals. This helps stimulate digestion.

It's called the Kolob Terrace Road, and it takes one from the lowest elevations of the park to the highest, and from the end of the road at Lava Point Overlook, you get to look down into Zion Canyon. It is also the most geologically interesting part of the park, providing a look at the entire stratigraphy of the park, recent volcanic activity, and potentially active fault zones. For the biologist, it provides a range of biomes, from the desert to near alpine conditions. On a hot summer day, the high country is cool and green. There is even a small campground if you want to linger. Trailheads along the road provide access to "The Subway" and Kolob Arch, perhaps the second largest natural arch in the world.
The road starts in the village of Virgin and almost immediately does something unusual and spectacular. It climbs right up the middle of an inverted stream, a place where a lava flow filled a river canyon only to be attacked by erosion. The flow was resistant so new canyons formed on both sides, leaving the former bottom of a river as a ridge. It's a little tricky to see, but note how the land falls away on both sides of the road in the picture above. Some of the basalt crops out on the right. The rocks are the siltstone and shales of the Triassic Moenkopi Formation, one of the oldest layers exposed in Zion National Park
There are grassy meadows in Cave Valley, and intriguing "beehives" of Navajo Sandstone. The rounded dome-like forms aren't easy to see from the floor of Zion Canyon. At the end of Cave Valley we pass something unexpected: a cinder cone, Spendlove Knoll (below). It erupted about 220,000 years ago.
Why the volcanism? We are near the edge of the Colorado Plateau, at the faulted boundary with the Basin and Range Province of western Utah and Nevada. The stretching of the crust and subsequent fracturing of the rocks has provided an avenue for the molten magma to reach the surface.
The scenery is on a grand scale. I'm pretty sure that some of the scenes from the 1979 film "Electric Horseman" with Redford and Fonda were filmed here (a movie I loved, and apparently Willie Nelson's acting debut).
The road continues up the hill, passing between two volcanoes, Spendlove Knoll and Firepit Knoll. Firepit is about 290,000 years old. In the distance one can see the cliffs of the Kolob Canyons, another isolated and rarely visited corner of Zion National Park. The road passes back and forth through the boundary of the park; you always know you are in the park because the road turns red (from the use of red cinders in the asphalt).
The rock outcrops of the Jurassic Navajo Sandstone are striking. The sloping layers are the crossbeds I mentioned above. They form on the steep leeward faces of sand dunes (the slip face), and the distribution of the Navajo and related formations show that this sand dune field once extended from Wyoming to Arizona, and from Colorado to California. There is no place quite like it today anywhere in the world.
Where did all the sand come from? Much of it probably came from the remnants of the Ancestral Rockies, or the incipient highlands related to subduction off to the west, but recent research suggests that some of the sand was derived from rivers with headwaters in the vast Appalachian-Caledonian mountain system in what is today the southeastern United States.
The road makes a long and very steep switchback (10 mph!) to climb another escarpment, and suddenly we are in a thick forest of ponderosa, firs, and aspen trees. Even in summer, the meadows were alive with colorful wildflowers, despite the parched conditions on the valley floors below.
About three miles before Kolob Reservoir, a gravel road goes right towards Lava Point. I love the understated entrance sign for Zion National Park. There should be more like it. It was less than two miles to the campground and Lava Point Overlook at an elevation of 7,980 feet. At this point, the plateau is coated with basaltic lava erupted just over a million years ago, before the carving of Zion Canyon.
The lush greenery of the forests contrasts strongly with the barren slopes of Navajo Sandstone. It's a verdant world largely hidden from the majority of park visitors who never get out of the deep valley. It is a sight that also helps to explain an odd phenomena that often occurs in the middle of the night when one is camped in Zion Canyon in summer. It is almost like clockwork; at about 2 AM or so, a cool wind kicks up in what had been a warm and sultry night. It is a drainage wind, a mass of cool dense air with a source on the high plateau that is flowing down the canyon.
We finished at Lava Point and faced a hot three hour drive back to Las Vegas, where our travelers would be catching flights home. We still had another day of driving back through the Basin and Range, and our trip would be over. Look for one more post about Zion, though. Even though we didn't see it on this trip, there is another spectacular corner of the park to seek out.

DIY - Temp. sensor coolant leak repair
6 Attachment(s)
Have you noticed that the coolant level seems to slowly drop but all the hoses look clean and dry? You may be suffering a small leak in the temperature sensor located in the lower left radiator hose. This sensor uses an O-ring that can shrink and harden with age, allowing small amounts of coolant to ooze when the engine is hot and the radiator is under pressure, but the amount evaporates or blows off, without leaving much of a trace. In this DIY, we'll see how to replace the part to neutralize the leak. No tools are needed and the only part you have to get is a new sensor, P/N 13621433077, $32 MSRP, can be found in the market in the $17-$40 range. You may be able to get a replacement O-ring and change only that for less. As a side note, this sensor is used to control the electrical fan in front of the radiator to maintain coolant temperature.
First off, let the car be totally and absolutely cold. Do the repair next morning. Not only you won't be scalded, but you will lose a lot less coolant. If you were planning on flushing the cooland as regular maintenance, you can go ahead and drain the old coolant now, but you can change the sensor without doing that.If you are not flushing the old coolant at this time, make sure the pressure cap on the expansion tank is screwed on tight; do not remove it. The sensor location is shown in pic. #1, you may see a slight ooze on the pressure relief holes on both sides. You are replacing the old sensor, #2, with a new one, #3. Note how the new O-ring is much rounder. Sensor is held in place by the two side tabs. If you're doing a "live exchange" (no flush), you can make the new sensor slide in easier by pre-lubeing the O-ring with undiluted BMW coolant. The connector needs to be removed first, the sensor cannot be removed otherwise. As shown in #4, pull out and hold the chrome retaining clip and pull the connector straight up. If it resists, that means you are not pulling the clip out enough. Now comes the quick part if you don't want to lose too much coolant. Place the new sensor in an easy and quick to reach location. As shown in #5, pinch the two side tabs on the old sensor together and pull gently but firmly straight up. The old sensor may be somewhat stuck in there, but do not go Neanderthal on it cause the hose fitting can be damaged and then you'll have much bigger problems. When it releases, quickly pull it out, set aside, grab the new sensor and slide it in until it clicks in place, noting that it is keyed. Don't overdo the pressure for the same reason as before. Before reconnecting, I like to daub a smidge of dielectric grease on all my connectors to keep the moisture out and to ease the next disconnect, #6. Just press on till the retaining clip clicks on. Now unscrew the pressure cap on the expansion tank and fill up the missing coolant. Giv'er a whirl to get everything nice, hot and pressurized, to make sure the leak is fixed? Time for a beer or whatever fluid suits your fancy after this extenuating repair job? :D Next time around, you could change the O-ring on the old sensor you removed, use that and save a bit. |
this less than a dollar solution works for me :thumbup: http://www.bimmerfest.com/forums/sho...t=#post4182085 |
No signs of this on my e46 yet (only 28k miles) but will squirrel this away for the future.
Thanks for taking the time to wrote this up and take pics.:thumbup: |
I have had a similar problem with my E36. Do you know if this also applies to this model?
This is good info. Should probably add this to the list of parts to replace (the o-ring) when doing the coolant system overhaul later in the car's life.
Coolant Sensor Leak
After replacing my lower radiator hose only to find the leak was coming from the coolant sensor, I went out and got a 10 pack of VITON (high temp / coolant resistant) O-rings from Macro Rubber
Very good to see - If a working link and part number can be confirmed, it should be wiki-fied.
I Iended up RTV-ing my sensor back in. Dang dealer parts desks around here are not open on Saturdays or Sundays, and I needed the car back on the road. I went to NAPA to see what they had as far as suitable oRings. There was one fuel injector oRing that was maybe an 8mmx4mm. That was the closest, but it was too fat for the bung on the lower hose...... |
I remember seeing this thread months ago and I was happy to see it was in the wiki. I just did this yesterday because coolant was leaking pretty bad from there on my car. Oddly the O-ring looks fine on the old sensor but replacing the sensor seems to have stopped the leak. Good write up!
Hmm, I'll check mine as well because I have to put a tiny bit of coolant in every week. Thanks for the write up!
Looks like I have this very problem. Thanks for the detailed directions and advice on what to do. One question though. If I take the sensor off, replace the O Ring, and reinstall, how much coolant can I expect to leak out in that timeframe? I figured since it is at the bottom radiator hose that gravity might force it out. Can I plug it somehow while I change the O Ring ya think?
If the car is stone cold and the caps (pressure/bleeder) are shut tight on the expansion tank, very little BMW joy juice will leak out, mere droplets. Of course, provided you don't go about squeezing the hoses... :p
I loose a small amount of coolant over time and havent been able to figure out where its going. I'll give this area a closer look.
Here is a link that gives the BMW part number for just the o-ring. http://www.bimmerfest.com/forums/sho...p+sensor+rings |
I'd like to thank jcourcoul for the perfect insturctions on how to fix this problem. And also E46-platform for giving the specs on the o-ring. Cost me $2 for a 10pk. and although it was a bit more difficult to push the sensor back in i just ran it for 20 minutes and not one drip (used to drip right out of the gate). Word of advice, since that o ring is a bit thicker and thus harder to push the sensor in, I suggest grabbing the bottom of the hose connection with your fingers and pushing down on the sensor with your palm. In fact squeexing it on there. Pushing straight down with too much force may damage that connection (I think anyway).
Thanks gain. So far with this site I have fixed this issue for $2 (20 cents effectively)and a tailight issue for $1. I'm a fairly new BMW owner (1 year) and had an older Honda prior. I worked on it whenever needed. I must admit this thing intimidated me at first, but so far so good. |
You did prelube the whole tip of the sensor with undiluted antifreeze? Remember Orlando Bloom's immortal words in Evolution: "There's ALWAYS time for lubricant!" :rofl:
The whole process took me about 30 seconds (then another 3 mins to top off the coolant :)). |
Nothing like natural lubrication to make the process more memorable. Too bad it's over so quickly you almost don't have time to enjoy it. Almost.... :p;)
I am uncomfortable with the word "lube" being thrown around so much. But yes, I did. :) Just went out and checked under the car and nada. Woohoo!!!
I just followed this guide and something I noticed differently about my car. The metal clip holding the sensor wire had to be pushed towards the front of the car (like a retention spring almost) and the wire easily slide out. On the 4th picture, it showed the clip being pulled towards the rear of the car, which I tried and didn't work. Else everything was straight forward
Hi all - outstanding thread!! Did mine the other day and everything was very smooth. No more leaks, nice and simple. Appreciate all the help!
I recently had a crack in my radiator overflow tank and had to get it replaced. After leaving the shop I noticed my radiator light was on but my car was full of fluid. I purchased a new radiator sensor and replaced the old sensor that was broken. Now when I start my car my radiator light is off but after about 28-30 seconds the light comes on. If I turn the car off and then turn it right back on, the light stays off but after 28-30 seconds it comes back on and stays on. Someone told me it might because my radiator cap might not be holding a tight seal. I don't know what to do and I'm looking for help. I have a 2000 328i with around 103000 miles.
Thanks in advance for any assistance. |
It certainly could be a leaking cap on the expansion tank. Pretty cheap to get one to try or even find a used one at a wrecker. Good luck |
I'm going to try and get a new cap and see if that does the trick. The 28-30 seconds happens if the car if hot or cold so I'm guessing you are probably right about the computer going through it's diagnostics. I'll post again after getting the cap.

I saw this stuff before and it's very interesting. Del Rio might not be living up to his potential but I think his stock would rise massively if he laid out Batista in the Rumble. Also, he'd be fired but it would matter to the people of the world.
Seems like Big Dave is getting that big head that Booker T had to pop a few years back. I'm already annoyed with his return.
Props to Del Rio for not laying down for him.
I saw this stuff before and it's very interesting. Del Rio might not be living up to his potential but I think his stock would rise massively if he laid out Batista in the Rumble. Also, he'd be fired but it would matter to the people of the world.
Which part is confusing? Batista talked shit and Del Rio threw it back in his face saying he didn't have any balls. Batista might be a big deal but I figure Del Rio might take a chance and potato Batista during the Rumble considering Del Rio isn't afraid of a fight. I think wrestling fans would take serious notice. It would be wrestling legend from then on out. And on camera.
A man's pride can make him do lots of things he wouldn't normally do. Real hits occur in the ring all the time. Might just get super interesting.
Yeah, it'd be comically unprofessional and he might not work again. All to be a "legend" to a bunch of internet fans? Seems like a low risk-reward proposition.
This is professional wrestling. The reason it works is because workers, no matter their backstage beef, have to trust their opponent with their bodies.
Del Rio would be STUPID to try anything that would get him fired.
To elaborate, "professional" implies they do this for money.
Risking your livelihood to cheap shot a major acquisition in the ring would be stupid. It's one thing to pull some shit with Sin Cara. It's another thing entirely to take liberties with an actual star. Given that Del Rio's been able to wade tricky political waters and maintain a swank spot on the roster in spite of underwhelming job performance, I'd suggest he's not a moron.
Was Booker T a moron?
His motivation would ego driven, not internet fan driven. People still talk about the Jericho Goldberg shit like they were there. Neither man did what they did to impress the IWC. lol.
The reason it works has zero to do with anything here except two guys with attitudes that both have fancied themselves actual fighters during their careers. That reason it works shit is hilarious by the way. Why not post the disclaimer and suggest someone tweet it to both men. DONT TRY THIS AT HOME GUYS. lol.
At some point in their career, THEY WERE ACTUAL FIGHTERS. Jericho and Goldberg had a backstage fight. That's a different level of stupid than cheapshotting somebody on live television. His stock wouldn't rise massively among anybody except internet fans. He'd probably be fired immediately and might not work again in the largest wrestling company in the world. But hey, at least people would talk about him!
Who's arguing? I wish you weren't constantly trolling. It would be fun to have a real conversation with you. If you think wrestling isn't full of jocks and dickheads, you don't know anything about prowrestling. Also, if you want to go the idiocy based on the odds of becoming a star in a business full of nobodies, pretty basic stuff there.
It's the inverse reason of why so many Luchadores are still wrestling in their sixties. The money for wrestling in Mexico ain't SHIT.
Hate him if you want, but Del Rio is a boss in the ring. He could carry a match with Batista and make it good. I hope they fight at EC, it would be a nice first ppv singles match for Big Dave. I have very little interest in Orton/Batista at XXX (if that happens), but nothing I can do about that.
Yeah taking a shit on the whole locker room wasn't very cool. What a dick. I mean Dave doing the whole "who are you" thing was less a big deal. ADR trash talked him in storyline so big Dave might of just been pumping it up for the rumble on Twitter since he won't be on screen for a bit and maybe ADR just got pissy about it, then Dave got pissy and buried the locker room as being B-level stars compared to the "A-era"...wasn't Batista more apart of the current era? He was never really apart of the attitude era. He got there when the Attitude Era was on it's death bed. Batista was kind of in that odd era where the attitude era was kind of dead but the PG era wasn't in swing yet. They were just kind of in limbo. Basically what I'm saying is it's not like Dave was huge star alongside Austin and Rock.
Assuming you even get paid, most of the non-famous guys over here either study or have another job for a reason. their wrestling 'paychecks' depend on how the sales of an event do. In the worse case scenario, they get paid barely enough to buy lunch that day, and not a decent lunch!
Granted, the big and famous guys like Parka, Konnan, Dr. Wagner Jr, Hijo del Santo, Blue Demon Jr, Ultimo Guerrero, and Mistico I? They do just fine, and so would Del Rio if he came back.
Hell, he would do much better than when he was Dos Caras Jr.
That's all, folks.
Whether it's a work or not Dave should have attacked Del Rio in a different fashion. Alberto just kept it simple while Dave took it a little too serious. Now he called him a C level star in a B star era. Did Batista forget Rey Mysterio, Khali, Orton, Cena, Henry, are all superstars that are still around since he has been gone? Some may dislike Del Rio but one can't deny his in ring work is good. He could carry a match and make any one look good in that squared circle. Sure his character has gotten stale but when he first came in he was red hot. If the E continued to push him correctly he would be one of the biggest heels. Not to mention he is not bad on the mic at all. Who knows maybe this is a set up for a EC or Mania match it wouldn't be bad match if you ask me just wouldn't be to crazy about it if it was at Mania but with good story telling it wouldn't be bad.

Silver Lake Sand Dunes
I plan on heading up to the silver lake sand dunes this weekend July 7-9. I have not been their since before the voucher system. I was wondering how long you have to wait to get vouchers and is it better to get them on friday night. I like to drink and do real camping so I plan on staying at a state forest campground near Baldwin about an hour away. The problem is I and really don't want to have to drive down just for a voucher on friday at 9pm but also don't want to get out their on sat and end up getting a voucher for 5pm. Any information would be helpful, also wondering what psi I should run. I have a stock jeep xj with bfg all terrains. Thank you

If you are going to trailer your rig to the dunes you should probably go friday night to get a parking lot voucher for saturday, I believe they start handing out parking lot vouchers at 9:oo p.m., on the other hand if you are going to drive your rig from baldwin then you can get dune ready vouchers starting at 12:00 noon on friday, therefore you will have plenty of time for fun Friday evening!:beerbang, as for tire pressures I would probably start with about 15lbs and see how that works and go down as needed. Hope this helps.

I think after 4 PM you don't need a voucher, and i doubt a stock XJ is going to be trailered there and need a Parking voucher.
I think i'd take my chances at showing up at the voucher place at 9AM for a voucher then. But don't take my word on it, depends on how busy they are. Maybe call nearby campgrounds and ask if they have vacancy. BTW i might show up there on saturday. I'll be the green samurai with a fancy PVC snorkel |

Just to make myself clear, someone asked how the voucher system worked and I gave the information on how it works. I don't know this person, and I don't know whether he trailers his jeep or not, I just gave the information both ways to help out.

Best Uses for Cheap Blankets
by Staff Writer
Everyone can make use of cheap blankets. While luxury bedding is nice, it isn't always what you need. In those cases, you can save money on the blankets you use.
Using Cheap Blankets:
Shop Blankets ▸
- Use them on kids' beds.
If you have kids, you can use cheap blankets to make sure their bedding is rotated regularly. Keeping bedding fresh and clean can help defend against illness, so it's smart to switch it out often. With children, it may be a much better solution to have several sets of less expensive bedding than one set of higher end bedding.
- Use them in the guest room.
Inexpensive blankets are also terrific for guest rooms. Outfit a guest bed with a few blankets to ensure a great night's rest for your visitors. You can also store several extras in the closet of your guest room, which will allow your company to add warmth to their bed if they so choose.
- Use them all around the house to increase comfort and warmth.
Bedrooms aren't the only appropriate places for cheap blankets. Consider keeping a few blankets and throws in a cabinet or a storage ottoman near the sofa in your living room, where they'll offer warmth and comfort for everyone in the family. You can also use cheap blankets in a home theater to make sure you have something to curl up with while you enjoy a movie.
- Use them outside.
If you didn't spend a lot of money on a blanket, you won't be as concerned about whether or not it gets a little dirty. Save your luxury bedding for your bed, and take cheap blankets on a picnic or to the beach. Keep a few in a storage bench in your mud room or entry way, so you can grab them before you head out.
- Keep one in your car.
Add a cheap blanket to your vehicle's emergency kit. If your car were to break down during a snowstorm and you were waiting for a tow truck, you wouldn't need anything fancy, just a little something to stay warm under until help arrived.
- Let your kids make blanket forts.
A few sturdy dining chairs, a bunch of clothespins, a stack of cheap blankets, and their imagination are all it takes to create a castle, a pirate ship, a space station, or a prehistoric cave. With plenty of inexpensive blankets around, rainy days will never be boring again.

Able to withstand extremely load mismatches, up to a VSWR > 65:1, this Gen6 HV 50 V LDMOS device has a 30% better thermal resistance (R,th) compared to a traditional air cavity ceramic packaged transistor, and combined with its high efficiency, requires less stringent cooling requirements.
The BLCU188XRS has unmatched input and output making it suitable for a wide variety of applications including FM and VHF TV broadcast, industrial, scientific and medical RF power generators. It is suitable for any RF power application in the 10 MHz to 600 MHz range.
The device also has a number of parameters that contribute to it offering excellent reliability characteristics for the end application. These include a higher BV DSS breakdown voltage, improved parasitic bipolar breakdown, and an improved Class C operation due to an ESD-diode structure that has a larger negative voltage range. The device offers good stability and spurious behaviour at a VSWR > 90:1.

It boggles my mind how you can connect so many prompts and make it work! This was a very humorous read ... I taught my children to drive by putting them on the freeway and taking a nap, or pretending to. Don't know how they did it, but it worked.
Wondering if you will be allowing some of your Acrostics to be put in Acrostic Only anthology? If so, today is the deadline for sending in your permission and bio.

Graham Parker
At the age of 16 Graham left school to start work down the mines. After ten years of digging coal and just before his 26th birthday a near death car crash left him with two smashed legs that required more than 30 major operations – two of them lasting over 10 hours apiece . It took him and the specialist help of numerous physicians 12 years to rebuild.
Since that fateful day in 1988 he has gone on to attend three Universities, make programmes for the BBC & ITV, work for several enterprise support agencies and launch his own multi award-winning PR Agency.
His dedication to raising cash for charities has seen him trekking the Andes at 4,000 metres, parachuting from 3,000 feet, walking the Yorkshire Three Peaks in under 12 hours, cycling hundreds of miles and spearheading a campaign to raise £70,000 to build a new war memorial to the fallen from his home town.
His talks cannot fail to inspire and motivate people who need to overcome obstacles. He focuses on who and what people need to surround themselves with in order to face challenges and win. His talks are underpinned with the belief that we all create our own opportunities in life and that, if you create them for others the results will be ten times bigger than ever expected.
Graham's talks are personal and from the heart, they speak of his own journey, his struggles and how he overcame them to achieve his goals. He connects his experience with your own life to inspire you to achieve even more.
