Ear Stream Black Pearl
Black Pearl is a project introduced after three years of the Moonlight's evolution. Its intention was to create a headphone amplifier with at least equal sound quality followed by much higher output power, enabling the amplifier to work well also with hard to drive high impedance dynamic and orthodynamic headphones. Besides higher power the Black Pearl has got another advantage over...

Almond M&M's
March 12th, 2008 by Rosa
For some reason or another, I see Almond M&M's as the forgotten M&M. Well, after Crispy, I guess, but those are no longer being made. For some reason or another, Almond M&M's just don't get that much attention, and I only recently got to try them. That was a shame, as I found them to be pretty good.
I was disappointed to find that there were only 12 M&M's in my single serving bag. They were larger than milk chocolate or peanut M&M's, but still, only 12? I easily polished off the entire bag, which then led to a good case of candy overindulgence guilt.
I liked the Almond M&M's better than the peanut ones (which isn't saying much, as I find peanut M&M's boring) because they're darker and crunchier. The almonds had a stronger, nuttier taste than the bland, unroasted peanuts found in peanut M&M's.
Though the almonds were great, Almond M&M's are not a candy you want to dissect into its separate components to eat. Instead it's best when all crunched together so that the almond's nuttiness can mitigate the sweetness of the sugar shell and milk chocolate. An OM.

Home>Research>Yeats Archive
The Yeats Archive consists of a prestigious collection of material donated to the National Gallery of Ireland by Anne Yeats in 1996 and several additional collections acquired since. These collections relate to Jack B. Yeats and members of his extended family. The Anne Yeats gift of Jack B. Yeats's personal archive includes the artist's sketchbooks which cover over fifty years of his career, forming a diary of his activities and tracing stylistic changes in his work, a large number of books from Yeats's own library, a collection of journals, theatre programmes, original manuscripts, photographs, postcards and letters, as well as general memorabilia such as the artist's easel and smock. This collection also includes material relating to Mary Cottenham Yeats and an extensive collection of old ballads, ballad books and maps. In addition, the Archive holds material pertaining to other members of the Yeats family including W.B. Yeats, John Butler Yeats, his sisters Susan Mary ('Lily') and Elizabeth ('Lolly'), niece Anne Yeats and cousin Ruth Pollexfen. The Cuala and Dun Emer Presses are also well represented. Below is more detailed information relating to just four aspects of Jack B. Yeats's diverse and extensive archive collection.

Works for Publication
During a career spanning seven decades, Jack B. Yeats produced a considerable body of work for publication. This includes black and white journalistic illustrations for magazines such as Ariel, Paddock life and Punch, illustrated periodicals such as The Broadsheet (1902-1903) and A Broadside (1908-1915), a volume of drawings and paintings entitled Life in the West of Ireland (1912), and illustrations for the works of several authors, including John Millington Synge. The image to the left is Yeats's frontispiece illustration, 'An island man', for Synge's The Aran Islands, published in 1907, and from a limited edition of 150 copies with hand coloured illustrations. In addition the artist published five illustrated works of children's literature in the period 1901-1909, and seven novels and four theatre plays in the period 1930-1947. Further theatrical works were published posthumously.

Original Artworks
This 1901 sketch of a tram crossing Baggot street bridge, Dublin, is from one of the 204 sketchbooks produced by Jack B. Yeats which are in the Yeats Archive. These span the period 1886-1953 and contain approximately 10,000 sketches. This body of work enables us to trace motifs and stylistic changes in Yeats's work, in addition to forming a visual diary of the artist's life, in particular for the period 1898-1910. Almost all of the sketchbooks are of a type that would fit easily in the artist's pocket. Yeats uses a variety of media such as watercolour, ink and graphite until 1910, after which his use of mixed media gives way to a simpler approach, generally using only graphite. Yeats referred to these sketchbooks for both subject matter and composition throughout his career; paintings were regularly based on sketches of scenes witnessed by Yeats many years earlier.

The Yeats Archive includes a significant number of letters, both written and received by Jack B. Yeats, from friends, family, and associates. Regular correspondents include the poet laureate John Masefield; American lawyer and patron of the arts John Quinn; Lady Augusta Gregory; and John B. Yeats who sends illustrated letters to both Jack and Cottie, including the one on the left, sent in 1918. Also present are letters from the writer Samuel Beckett; former Director of the National Gallery of Ireland, Thomas McGreevy; and the artist Oskar Kokoshka. This body of material is a fascinating and essential resource for research on Yeats.
Jack B. Yeats's library
The Yeats Archive includes over 400 volumes, chosen by Anne Yeats, from an original library of over 2000 books which belonged to her uncle Jack B. Yeats. Jack's personal library includes those works authored or illustrated by the artist: his children's books and miniature theatre, novels and plays, along with the works of others which he illustrated. In addition the library includes a large collection of literature, with works by John Millington Synge, George Moore, Lady Augusta Gregory, John Masefield, Mark Twain, W. B. Yeats, Shakespeare, and Samuel Beckett represented. Also included are a number of reference books relating to wine, ships, gardening, crafts, and magic, a collection of children's books, an extensive collection of English and Irish ballads, and a collection of Irish and English ordnance survey maps. Surprisingly, there are few books relating to art.

The faculty, staff, and teachers of Stanford University's Human Biology Middle Grades Life Science Curriculum Project dedicate the publication of the HumBio Curriculum in memory of our colleagues and friends, Mrs. Donna Harrison and Dr. Mary Budd Rowe. Donna was the lead science teacher at Dozier Middle School, the project test site school in Newport News, Virginia. She was an outstanding teacher, a community leader, a devoted wife and mother, and a wonderful human being. Her involvement in the HumBio Project enriched the curriculum materials and brought great joy to our lives. Although her life ended suddenly and tragically, the inspiration she gave to all who knew her will live on in what we do to improve the education of children and youth. Mary Budd Rowe was our most distinguished science education colleague and our dear friend. She guided the early organizational stages of the project as a group of university scientists attempted to address issues of middle level science education. Her unbridled enthusiasm for the education of children always reminded us of the important purpose of our work. Mary continued her unwavering support of the HumBio curriculum until her passing in June of 1996.

I'd like to say thank you to all you lovely people who have contacted me throughout my month as MOM. I'm sorry I was away for most of it but I still felt the love. I had such fun spending my voucher yesterday and I did a naughty thing, I bought the Ultimate Artist even though I don't have PSE9 or !0. Could end up being an expensive move as now I need to buy PSE10. After Syndee's article about all the new things, I will have to do that sooner rather than later. Isn't this a wonderful craft.
Wear your crown with pride Jody. We love you. Kay

It is a great honour and I am flattered to be in such an esteemed group and know that there are many other deserving recipients out there so I am doubly flattered. Happy to accept your crown Kay :-) To all of you who left such warm, beautiful comments I THANKYOU! It made me all warm and fuzzy and let me know I was definitely in the right community :-)
I don't really know what you may want to know about me so I will try to include stuff that hopefully is interesting and along the right lines...
I joined in Feb 2010 but lurked around for 18 months before I even posted anything as I wasn't confident enough to let anyone see what I was making... I read newsletters and practiced like mad, and followed tutorials and looked at the techniques they used to describe in the old newsletters... I played around a while and developed a style that seems to work for me, I figured out what kinds of layouts I like and how I like to journal and what kind of embellishments work for me...
I posted my very first layout in June 2011, don't really remember what gave me the courage to do that but I was overwhelmed by the positive response to it and encouraged to go on...
People who didn't know me were looking at and enjoying my pages and saying nice things, is there a better feeling than that!?!
I found scrapping was an outlet for a lot of things as well as an outlet for creativity and a way to preserve memories... it let me vent and let me show off my greatest treasures... one of my favourite layouts is about my cancer treatment because it helped me release a lot of stuff I needed to get rid of, whilst others are about things that are local to me and exotic to you, I like the way I can share my world with you all and I get to see all of your home towns and families and customs... I like P52 for the same reason, these little interesting things are what makes life fun. I also love the Swap Crop cos I get to play with photos that aren't mine and I get to create a world for them and get to see how others view my photos, I get pages in a style outside of my own and I love to see what people create from what I send!
I also could never have imagined the connections I have made here... There are so many friendly faces (!?!) here and I really love the sense of belonging... I have made some wonderful friends, one of whom in particular I email every day... it is one of the highest points in my day...
You only have to glance at my gallery to see my most prized possessions are my 2 gorgeous boys, Aidan and Callan. They feature heavily in my layouts and give me the greatest wealth of photos to play with, they inspire me and give me a reason to record these memories..
I live a simple life, with good friends, a close family, a wonderful partner of 5 years, and lots of reasons to be happy. Having somewhere to share these joys is just icing on my happy cake. Thank you!!!

- Description
DetailsThe Total Body Home Arc Trainer designed in a smaller footprint specially for the home where it won't be used 24/7 but where a wide variety of programs, resistance, and intensity is just as important as it is in the gym. The same unique Arc pattern of motion and Same Side Forward (SSF) technology that won "Product of the Year" for the Arc Trainer commercial model is available in the Home Arc Trainer.
CROSS TRAINERS VS ELLIPTICALSNot all cross trainers are created equal. Cross training refers to working various parts of the body by combining different exercises in a variety of ways. Typically one activity or sport trains certain parts of the body but not others. Cross training aims to eliminate this. Cross trainers are generally non-impact machines – sometimes called "ellipticals" – which refers to a specific motion. All ellipticals are cross trainers but not all cross trainers are ellipticals.
BURNS MORE CALORIESMore results in less time. Research shows that the CYBEX Arc Trainer burns more calories than any other cross trainer or elliptical cross trainer tested. The science behind the Arc Trainer's big calorie burn is the Arc motion. It engages the right muscles – quads and glutes – that demand lots of energy from the body when they are called upon to work. That means big calorie burn. And ... because the Arc is demanding of the muscles – not the joints, it can be used longer without putting a strain on the knees, hip or back.
THREE MACHINES IN ONETrain for strength, power, endurance, cardio, and weight loss. The CYBEX Arc Trainer offers broad incline and resistance ranges which mean it is really 3 machines in one. At the lower incline levels, the "glide" is a cross country skier. In the mid-range levels, the motion is a "stride" (like an elliptical except with proper positioning). At the high levels, the "climb" of a stepper or climber. Glide, Stride, and Climb. And ... lots of programs also make the Arc Trainer fun to use.
EASY ON THE JOINTSNo more "elliptical knees". Unlike other cross trainers on the market the patented Arc pattern of motion allows the hip and knee to move synchronously while the foot stays under the knee reducing joint pains and providing a more comfortable workout.

It is set in the closing months of World War II, in an American bomber squadron on a small island off Italy. Its hero is a bombardier named Yossarian, who is frantic and furious because thousands of people he hasn't even met keep trying to kill him. (He has decided to live forever, even if he has to die in the attempt.)
Catch-22 is a microcosm of the 20th-century world as it might look to someone dangerously sane. It is a novel that lives and moves and grows with astonishing power and vitality. It is, we believe, one of the strongest creations of the mid-century.
©1955, 1961 Joseph Heller; (P)2007 HarperCollins Publishers
"An apocalyptic masterpiece." (Chicago Sun-Times)
"One of the most bitterly funny works in the language...explosive, bitter, subversive, brilliant." (The New Republic)
"A monumental artifact of contemporary American literature, almost as assured of longevity as the statues on Easter Island....Catch-22 is a novel that reminds us once again of all that we have taken for granted in our world and should not, the madness we try not to bother and notice, the deceptions and falsehoods we lack the will to try to distinguish from truth." (New York Times Book Review)
"Phenominal Reading - Story and Damn Funny"
I tried reading this book a few times and each time I ran out of energy and time. The book is both hysterical and poignant and classic American literature. To put it simply, I have never laughed out loud ever while reading a book in my life.
I couldn't finish the book due to time and kids, so I chose the audio version and will say that is was so much better than my reading, it enabled me to enjoy the book more and even listen to the author read a few of the best passages.
If you've ever been curious about the phrase 'Catch-22', this audio book is a MUST purchase!
Jay O. Sanders absolutely MAKES this production a MUST purchase. He understand the story, the characters and without his voice, this story doesn't have a soul or a sense of humor.
"Funny, frustrating, exciting.. just plain Good"
This book is a classic in its own right and I think many people have it in their top 10 list of all time books to read.. If you place the book in the time it was written you might be able to see its magnificence even better. The play with words is amazing and hilarious at the same time.. it flows like a great poem. But, I probably don't have to convince you of the quality of the book...The narrator is the main concern of most "audio book" readers... well he does as much justice to the book as anyone could have done and he was able to totally take me on a roller-coaster ride of the crazy insanity that war can bring. He brings every punchline exactly where it should be and he makes the story even better than it is on paper... This audiobook deserves 6 stars.
Love love love it.
Retired teacher of literature with an interest in religion and in science and in history. I have loved reading for 50 years.
"Funny, sarcastic, sardonic"
At times this is a hilarious book, very well interpreted by the reader/performer. Catch-22 pokes fun at the military, at conventional wisdom, at organizational madness, and at the ultimate madness: war. The protagonist protests that he does not want to participate in war because the enemy "is trying to kill me." He is told not to take it so personally, as if his death is not a personal issue. From there, reality becomes more ludicrous.
Prepare to be entertained, prepare to laugh, prepare to be moved....
"Jaw dropping world class literature! "
Wow! This is an impressive piece of literature. What a superb mastery of the English language and an intelligent sense of humour. All of that is seasoned with fascinating descriptions of people, landscapes, thoughts and sometimes grotesque situations in an unpredictable way that keeps you in constant suspense until the last page.
For the audio version, I give five stars out of five to the narrator (Jay O. Sanders) for presenting this masterpiece with all the respect it deserves. He maintains the auditor's attention all the way by vivid variations speed, pronunciation and energy. At no point in time you feel that it's either a monotonous robot reading or some overdone theatrical performance. Actually, in this audio version Sanders reads the novel better than Joseph Heller himself.
Long story short: do yourself a favour and read this book.
I found it easier to understand this novel by checking out some stuff about it on SparkNotes, as it was sometimes difficult to follow all the characters (one good thing about physical novels), but it was absolutely hilarious and still completely as relevant today as it was when written. And now I actually know where the phrase came from!
"Tough one to get through"
Okay, I have to admit I didn't know much about Catch-22 before adding it to my library. I had heard the phrase and knew in general what it implied, but knew very little about the origin of it. So, I decided to take a listen.
The book seemed to be more of a series of character studies within a war-time setting rather than a straight-forward plot line using characters as tools to bring the reader neathly along the path. The plot interweaved and folded back on itself from various perspectives, making it the type of book to be examined and studied.
It was difficult to do that in an audio format, especially when driving, cleaning, or multi-tasking. However, if you've read it in school or have any familiarity with the story or characters, you should enjoy it.
"Here's the catch..."
If you are bright, and you don't listen to this book, then you are not too bright. If you are dim and you listen to this book and you like it, then you are probably not that dim. If you are dim and you don't like it, then you are definitely not bright. If you are dim and you don't listen to this book, then you were likely never bright, and you shouldn't listen to this book. In fact, for you, there is no book. This never happened. Go back to sleep.
An absolute joy to listen too! Clever to the Nth degree, and completely relevant today as it ever was.
Note: Not for the dim and/or humorless
Magic Shopper
Years ago I read this book. Then years ago (1970?) I saw the movie. And now I just listened to this terrific reading. It is a great rendition and I'm glad I did. Funny, poignant, and very well-enacted. Brings me back to a lot of "truths" I never want to forget.
"Great writing"
I enjoyed this read; the performance was outstanding. The story is another story. I am a big fan of Vonnegut, and I appreciate his disparate story lines that he weaves together as he goes along. I appreciate his satire, sarcasm, and twisted bending of reality which keeps his writings close to home but out there at the same time.
Heller pays homage to Vonnegut directly and indirectly throughout. I love his language and cadence; consistent, effective, and romantic. But I found much of the story goalless, tedious, and whosonfirstish. I know the military is full of hypocrisy, futility, and just downright idiocracy. But I felt like reaching the end was starting again. If that was his goal...mission accomplished (either that or I'm a complete idiot)
This book has a free form that is rare in books. It is its own thing. It makes no excuses for itself and what is truly great is that it is not 'in your face humor'. None of the characters are trying to be funny, but are in spite of themselves by just being themselves. There is no hand-holding and events described earlier in the book come back later for some sort of explanation, but often as life itself, you might or might not find that satisfying. I do. It is brilliantly funny. Heller has been a real student of humanity and has captured many people who sadly, perhaps, are real enough around us if we care to look. It is a very personal work, no doubt, but one many can nod in recognition to and laugh at the strangeness, hopelessness and wonder of life.
As for the narrator, Jay O. Sanders, then he does a great job with conveying the sarcasm with a straight face, which for sure is how the humor is intended, and his voices are excellent.
Top marks all around!

No Bake | Dark Chocolate Nutella Kumquat Pudding … indulgent, addictive and gluten free. Eggless too!
"I am starting to think that maybe memories are like this dessert. I eat it, and it becomes a part of me, whether I remember it later or not."
Erica Bauermeister
Dark Chocolate Nutella Kumquat Pudding turned out bowl scraping good. It was just an experiment. The result was deeply, soul satisfying, smooth and beautiful texture; quite delightful for an eggless chocolate pudding. Using oats meant that it was gluten free too! Did I mention I put in some whole kumquats too? They added delightful citrus undertones! Life has been busy as usual with annual exams on and the kids hungry ALL THE TIME! It's a wonder they ever get anything else done because IMHO they are always eating! It's also a wonder I get anything done at all because I am always in the kitchen.
Chocolate is one thing that needs to be on hand all the time. Chocolate everyday, and the savoury nibbles too. Store bought anything is a huge NO with the daughter, so I am BUSY!! It's a double edged sword though. I love being in the kitchen, I get to experiment {read LOTS} … yet on the other hand I have time for nothing else!
I've been diving into bags of oats of late. When it's not oats, it's amaranth flour, peanut flour, walnut meal and barley flour. Adds new dimensions to what you can do … and often what you cannot too! In a larger perspective, it helps you push your boundaries, something which I currently enjoy! The failures are there of course.
So the pudding was meant to be just a chocolate pudding, but then along came Ruchira visiting from Islamabad. Among bagfuls of exciting stuff, she also brought hazelnuts. That was inspiration enough. Suddenly a Dark Chocolate Nutella Kumquat Pudding made more sense! Kumquats because they are in season and hanging heavy on the branches of my tiny tree!
The rest of the day just went in trying to save the pudding from the 'forever hungry for dessert at anytime of the day' kids, and attempting to shoot the brown in a nice way. Well, brown isn't easy to shoot! I tried!
The Dark Chocolate Nutella Kumquat Pudding turned out heavenly good. Fuss free to make and eggless. I used oats instead of cornflour to thicken it and that paid off well. The texture was smooth yet had some viscosity maybe from the kumquats or possibly cooked oats.
Everything about it was delightful. Scraping the bowl {or rather pottery mug} the lad asked several times if he could have more. "I can eat this forever," he declared … and I rolled up my eyes! Thats how good it was!

El Mundo
May 7, 2000, in Andoain, SpainLópez de la Calle, a regular contributor to the Basque edition of the Madrid-based daily
El Mundo, was shot dead outside his home in Andoain. Though no arrests were made, Interior Ministry officials attributed the crime to the Basque separatist group ETA. López de la Calle, 63, was an outspoken critic of ETA's violent campaign for independence and had received death threats from the group in the past.
His killing came several weeks after two Spanish journalists received letter bombs, which were safely disarmed by the police, and another bomb exploded at the home of a third journalist. Officials blamed ETA for all the attacks.

The Military started doing this in the 1940's. Nothing new or groundbreaking. They say it stimulates neurological development. Doing things like holding them upside down, side to side, tickling their feet, alternating placing them on a cold wet towel then a warm wet towel etc. There are different versions I've read. All have the same concept. I've done it just in case they're right.
I started doing it about 5 or 6 years ago. Has it helped my dogs? No idea, but it can't hurt & it's kind of fun to play with all the little burrheads and study the tiny little things at a time when they still can't see or hear or do much other than eat & sleep. I have a small litter of 4 little Peakes right now that are the most uniform pups I've had in any litter, big or small. Studying them while doing the ENS has helped me be able to tell them apart.

I've done a little research on it as my pup had it done. Seems to make sense to me, the very first couple weeks is the most developmental time for the neurological system. the system just provides stimuli to provoke more growth.
For amateurs who handle and spend a lot of time around their litters, I think it's hogwash. But, I do it. What if it actually does help?

You really gotta be careful about how high a pedestal you put your method, your accomplishments, your dog on. There's usually someone who's done more, somewhere. And they may have used a different method than you did! Chris Atkinson 2013

I did it with my last litter of pups. I'm a believer!
I've had the same line of hunting dogs (labs) since 1973. Gage is the fifth generation. I breed once per generation for the next in line. Over the years I never formally trained his predecessors. Just some obedience and OJT in the field.
We are both new to the Hunt Test game so I am learning as I am training. I still consider myself a novice but in the first year we had 11 straight passes; NAHRA, AKC and HRC including three NAHRA Intermediate.
I've never seen a dog so eager to learn and to please. At two he has added an HR title and three AKC Senior passes. It is clear to me and by the comments of some pros and experienced handlers that he is a much better dog than I am a handler/trainer. His only three fails were unquestioned handler errors.
If I were to breed again I would absolutely do the "Super Dog" program again.

You are here
In daylights, in sunsets; in midnights, in cups of coffee; in inches, in miles; in laughter, in strife. Love.
The cast of the Tony Award-winning musical Rent suggest that the "five hundred twenty-five thousand six hundred minutes" of a single year are best measured by the love in your life.
For the relatively small but wholly supportive crowd that attended the opening night gala of Rent on Thursday night, it was an event awash in love. From the volunteer ushers who worked the door at the Charleston Music Hall to the impromptu after-party cabaret that rocked the rafters of the American Theatre, it was a high energy evening of entertainment.
From now until Valentine's Day, the modern day interpretation of La Boheme will enthrall audiences with its richly talented voices and gritty tale, while a portion of proceeds will benefit the Roper St. Francis Ryan White Foundation and the Alliance for Full Acceptance.

text: So I have a yellow lab Miley that I hunt with, but never did any formal training with. I find out there is a local retriever club and we joined and they had the first picnic practice today which was very fun. Met some really nice people and dogs. Afterwards the main trainer told me Miley did great, and was well above started and closer to seasoned then started. I have looked at started and junior tests on you tube so I will have to look at seasoned. It was funny yesterday I told my wife I was going to a picnic and she said, what I thought you were training Miley with that group. She was ready to buy me some hot dogs and potato salad.

I have 5yo britt that I'm training for waterfowl.
He has had no real training but we started a few months ago working with him. He will heel sit down.
1st problem I'm having are some times when he sits he wants to go sideways like a lazy sit( I have had him from a pup and he's just been my buddy) I try and put him in a proper sit stance and he will do good for 5 min then back to being lazy. But he's still siting
2nd bird drive he one day will retrieve and next he won't. i thought about ff but $$$ stops that. Any tips for doing it myself.
Also I want to teach blinds some day but casting is that started on a t table or how do I go about starting that and when. I realize its a step by step process that one step needs to be solid before movin on but google has no helped much. Every one I thank you for input. If you have any questions for me to give me good advise ask
Thank you again.

- BCS' canaan kill was of course the catalyst. shafnutz05 mostly did the leg work on that, but kudos to BCS for picking it up and taking the shot.
- Zaro's nabbing of relantel immediately afterward was the real turning point. It cost the baddies their recruit.
- doublem had a slow start but investigated Juice the night doublem died. to Juice's kill that night.
- I laughed when canaan and Juice came up as the two wolves. It would have only been better if thg had been the Alpha. (I think I would have heard canaan's howl here in Kansas.)
Thanks to pittsports87 for co-modding. It worked out so well. He was around when I wasn't and vice versa.
And thanks to everyone for playing!

Finally found the Prime wave. They had Megatron, Optimus, Arcee, Cliffjumper, Bumblebee, Ratchet, Soundwave, and Wheeljack. I picked up Soundwave just because I was curious of how they would be able to make him. I also picked up Cyberverse Arcee.
Nowhere in your incoherent ramblings did you come anywhere close to the answer. Thanks to you, everyone in this room is now stupider having heard you. I award you no points and may God have mercy on your soul. -Billy Madison-
Found an Arcee for Chux Jr. And, wouldn't you know it, two days later and there's a $4-off manufacturer's coupon. If she were easier to find, I'd simply take her back and re-buy her.
That's my jacket!
very disappointed with cyberverse Arcee. transformation is hard for something this small and nothing locks in place. I should have went with the bigger one but 12 bucks seemed to high.

Cyberverse is generally not so great, but I haven't heard other reviews about that Legion Arcee being bad, so I'm surprised. I haven't seen it personally, the only Legions I've seen have been Bumblebee and Cliffjumper so far, they seem to sell very fast. I haven't seen any Commanders at all, so either they're not stocking around here yet or they're moving even faster.
You know who's not moving? Dlx Bumblebee, holy crap the pegs here are clogged with that figure! A few Cliffjumpers and the rare Wheeljack too, but BB is just ruining pegs around here.
So, I picked up TF:P Dlx Soundwave finally. I think this figure is a tad overhyped, it's not bad but it's not that well-detailed, it's small, it's gappy in the chest, Laserbeak doesn't look like much of anything, and there's not enough paint.
Soundwave's alt mode is a drone with a Transformer chest for an engine and no actual means of propulsion, so he's a cybertronian vehicle. The main look is roughly accurate, a little less sleek and smooth, less color, and has gaps that shouldn't be there. The underside isn't great, the obvious leg and arm bits hurt, the obvious bot chest, but it's not the worst flyer underside by a long stretch. There's a front landing wheel that folds down, but no rear landing gear - I think Laserbeak's wing hinges fold down to become the rear gear, they're the right height that way, although there's 2 non-movable chest points that also could be taken as landing gear.
Laserbeak isn't anything, as mentioned, he's just a set of simple panels like an origami bird, and the only articulation is a hinge for each larger wing which itself sits on rotating arm to fit as Soundwave's chest. Laserbeak's design is fairly accurate aside from a missing set of wings, but a lack of paint for the "eye" makes an already-obtuse design even more difficult to fathom.
Soundwave's transformation isn't much to write home about, it just moves the shoulders up and repositions parts on the arms and legs, then automorph causes the head to pop up when you open the back all the way (the trigger doesn't fire until the back plate is 90 degrees open). It's barely satisfying, really the only charm is the shoulders moving up.
Bot mode is fairly faithful to the show's design, just a little more kibble around the back of the legs, a touch less sleek due to the reality of making a toy, and there's a significant loss of details due to almost no paint - the upper body suffers greatly due to a lack of paint, especially when Laserbeak isn't installed. Soundwave is pointy with lots of panels going every which way, he's got very long arms with long fingers surrounding a 5mm hole, his chest is a docked Laserbeak, and his legs are chicken-legs. There is some blue paint showing around, but it's not in enough places so it doesn't stand out, and most of the electric fuchsia ends up getting lost. Soundwave is also a bit hunched forward at the lower torso, it's a joint you don't have to use but it gets gappy that way especially once Laserbeak is removed. With Laserbeak in place, Soundwave looks pretty interesting and alien with very long arms and a non-face, but with Laserbeak gone it's a lot of sad gaps in place of a chest, he looks incomplete - partly because it seems there was paint planned go to in there as well and got cut from the already wafer-thin budget.
Articulation is pretty good, lots of motion and range of motion except for the knees which are very limited in both directions by kibble. The head is a ball joint but on a horizontal axis so he has to **** his head to turn it not unlike a confused dog; the neck joint is very loose so the figure can't look up without his head dropping down lower than his shoulders - hence, he can't look upright - and there's an intended block which keeps the head from raising higher without dislodging the back plate, although it's worth it if you want a less-alien-looking Soundwave. The odd hands have a hole that can perch Laserbeak via a peg formed around a triangular "beard" the show design has; DvD has argued that the triangular tail can be used to treat Laserbeak as a handheld blaster, I like this, it means pegging him into the palm side instead of the perch side.
Soundwave is a really odd figure, the vehicle mode isn't that fun but it's true to the show, Laserbeak is a total snore, Soundwave's bot mode is pretty alien and true to the show but isn't really for everybody's tastes. I think a lack of paint for both characters ultimately keeps this set from being better than it could be. I'd give it a middle grade, a 6.5 or 7 out of 10.

Chapter 3: CK-12 Algebra Explorations Concepts, Grade 1
In these concepts, you will be introduced to six key concepts of algebra and will practice your problem solving skills. There are six concepts, and each one focuses on a key algebraic thinking strategy. You will focus on describing, identifying your job, planning, solving, and checking your thinking.
- 3.1.
Balance the Pans
- 3.2.
How Many Pounds
- 3.3.
Circles and Arrows 1
- 3.4.
Function Machines 1
- 3.5.
Silly Stickers
- 3.6.
Stars and Moons
Chapter Summary
In these concepts we used proportional reasoning when we computed the cost of multiple sets of stickers given the price of one sticker. We thought about equality and inequality and wrote equations when we looked at pan balances and filled one side in order to maintain balance. We saw variables as unknowns when we replaced variables with values in order to determine the total weight of various types of blocks. We also saw variables as varying quantities when we completed tables for functions. In many of the concepts we practiced interpreting representations of mathematical relationships, like when we looked at pan balances, circle and arrow grid diagrams, tables of values, and weight scales.

Love your LO Polo is certainly fun to watch and while living in the UK we used to watch the Polo games in Windsor Great Park.
How elegant - your LO and those marvelous horses. The chain link fence and the arrows really make this page.

Scandinavian designers, on the other hand, continued to value their native handcraft traditions, using natural as well as industrial materials, and curvilinear, sculptural shapes to express both a personal and regional identity quite different from that of modern designers elsewhere. The Danish architect Arne Jacobsen created "Ant" and "Egg" chairs, which stand as organic symbols, expressed by forms suggestive of an insect on slender metal legs and an enveloping oval shell, respectively. At Finland's Nuutajärvi glassworks and Arabia ceramics factory, Kaj Franck developed generalized tableware for multiple functions in coordinated sizes and colors, along with glass decanters in unusual shapes that could be further individualized with differently colored stoppers.

- Description
A partial panorama of the beautiful Pantiles in Tunbridge Wells.
I was shooting East to include much of the Pantiles area including - Mottrams Kitchen Shop (great to visit!), the Duke of York Pub which I believe also owns the Ragged Trousers Pub opposite (one of my favourites) and of course, the pretty Tourist Information Centre (which I hope is retained with the lovely staff during this period of recession - budget just announced!).
The unusual and historic post box is Victorian - see if you can see the unusual motif and time of the next collection! (Clues: Clock time & box collection plate).
There are the usual ghost images here but the definition is good enough to window shop at Mottram's. I'll take the lovely spherical white tea-pot please! I must check to see if it has a strainer integrated as I'm keen to use fresh loose tea rather than the tea-bags we generally use...
This is a delightful area to take tea or visit an English pub. I have a GigaPan Epic system (purchased for initial tests but which with the Lumix TZ10 will provide a useful back-up system) but am also about to use an Automate which will hold a heavyweight Canon DSLR and the 200 and 300mm (maybe 400mm) lenses I intend to test out (after I get the pda working and fathom the controls!). Currently, I'm waiting for the rain to stop too - England!
It took 20 minutes to shoot this panarama and about the same to stitch it using new software from GigaPan. Since this image I have acquired a Gigapan Pro machine - so it's likely we'll see some higher res of the Pantiles soon. It's November 2010 now... There's a great opportunity to take a 360 degree here too - that's if we don't get moved on by some official (quite likely when a tripod is used and the 'highway' is partly obstructed). Have you noticed how there are an increasing number of people who object to being in your picture even though taken from a public place?
In London - I used to be able to shoot views with impunity but it is soooo difficult now. Often you may have to apply for a permit and pay a £400 fee for shooting in say, Trafalgar Square (no thanks!) but pay the same amount again if you wish to shoot in one of the Parks or another part of London.
I've obscured faces as a matter of course in this panarama and deleted some of the ghosts (a double set of dismembered legs were cloned out and I have to admit to cleaning up the flagstones a little.
Best of luck with your own Gigapans. I'm keen to try out the new Gigapan Epic Pro - but so far have received a negative from GigaPan USA as it apparently is in high demand and no units available for me. Ouch! I have the AutoMate to test out and of course there are other systems. Google them and see which you might prefer. I'll let you know which I find more appropriate for my work in due course.
Oh - and one more thing... hurry up!
March 29th 2010 (Since taking this I've tried tests in my garden and some new Stitching software from Gigapan was launched. Speeds up the Stitching process - however I'm still obtaining the odd glitch to iron out. Check our website www.farmcombelane.co.uk if you need a place to stay while in Tunbridge Wells - it's just for two people but a hop, skip and a jump from the Pantiles & High Street + we have free parking, wifi etc. Separate entrance too.

We filmed this in very early February and it was just released for publicizing the band so now "I'm on my MTV."
Dry The River is a young alternative band from England. They were really cool and fun to work with.
BAD Pts Need: R5-C7 lf leg (x2), , R4-P44 right leg BAD Pts Offered For Trade: PM me - I have lots of parts now including BG-J38!. New Kyle Katarn is also available.
Not a picture of me but my naughty dachshunds thinning the local dove population. Who knew they liked squab?
...and yes, I know squab refers to pigeon and not dove. It's meant to be a culinary reference...
