David dIcke Debunked in 19 Seconds
Poster Handle
Anonymous Coward
Post Content
I realy appreciate the work of David. I woke up in this illusion myself and a few years later I came across Davids work.. he is showing how far the rabbit hole goes. I do not agree with all he says and shows.. he is not my guru or guide.. I am my own guide, aware of the matrix and dealing with it. David, thank you.
Do you believe in karma? Because of my experiences in my life I believe in karma. When I'm involved in something that harms others such as when I worked for an unscrupulous company, it hurt me spiritually, it drained my energy.
My opinion is that because David "Icke" is leading people to potentially damaging beliefs such as the moon matrix theory (as is described below) the karmic effect will be negative on anyone who supports him through group karma which I also believe in based on my life experience.
When I worked for that unscrupulous company although I didn't do anything unscrupulous myself just being a part of the operation damaged me through what I believe to be group karma. I've come to believe through my life experience that group karma is based on a shared karma that people get just from belonging to a group. Simply belonging to that company drained my energy and made me much weaker spiritually. I got out as soon as I could and I've become stronger since.
Quoting from "David dIcke, Arizona Wilder and the Biggest Secret" By Ivan Fraser
"Icke's Matrix is real. But Icke's portrayal of it and understanding of it is like a naive child's. He has no depth of understanding and insufficient experience in the field. His veil is strong, and his influence great - because he connects his ignorant level of energy with others of ignorance and the energy is transferred, auric field breached, and controllers plugged in.
You yourself spoke of feeling the flow at his meetings. Me too -
I had to leave the room at one of his lectures because something was desperately trying to force its way into me.
But because I know what is going on, I defend myself - whereas99.99% of people on this planet have no idea what is going on. Icke is one of them - he gets flashes of it but they always steer those into their own propaganda. They get in first with people like Icke, so that anyone revealing the truth of it will fall on deaf ears, on those that have already believed they have the answer and have already plugged into their astral reality, and have already reinforced the Veil of perception."

The statement above: "something was desperately trying to force its way into me" is incredibly scary. I've felt that in this thread and I've felt it when watching Icke's lectures and dealing with Icke fans at other times. The only other time I can recall having such a feeling was when I was involved with Christianity, I was raised in a Christian family.
What's the connection between Christianity and the moon matrix theory? They're both belief systems that require faith in what would otherwise be considered ridiculous notions. How is such a thing as the moon matrix theory considered to be progressing towards truth? That's a question for each individual to answer.
I think the following is important to consider in terms of group karma.
The 2012 hoax alone has caused people to go insane and lose a lot. I knew someone who I believe was driven insane by it. He believed 100% in the 'Mayan prophecy' and that December 21st 2012 was the end of the world. I had to cut ties with him because he was too crazy for me. He said that aliens were coming to save certain chosen people on December 21st 2012 of which he was one and that people like him would be taken off in a giant spaceship. He had given up his whole life to that belief basically. It's tragic.
Now you've got Icke fans saying that the moon matrix theory and the belief system it leads you to (see below) are a legitimate view of 'reality' and they support it as valid and credible.
It becomes incredibly tragic when you realize that if people actually do what gorilla199 suggested:
"go and start telling your friends and all your families and your workmates and everyone that you meet,
start telling them that you believe what David dIcke has said. You believe that the moon is a giant spaceship full of aliens controlling us with mind rays
It's going to cost people their relationships, their careers, their standing in the community, etc.. That's what happened between me and my old friend I just mentioned. Him sharing his outrageous beliefs about 2012 and the aliens that would save humanity cost us our friendship. In the long run he ended up losing his job and I believe that was related to his 2012 beliefs.
You've got Icke fans supporting the the moon matrix theory and the belief system it leads you to as a legitimate, valid, and credible view of 'reality'. Icke fans are rooting people on to their doom.
It's not only that though. Icke fans don't care that Icke is leading people to this horrible abyss of a belief system. No one outside of Icke's circle is gonna believe the moon matrix theory and where it leads you to. That will only cause massive suffering for those who believe in it and their friends and loved ones too.
I've experienced something similar so I have lots of compassion for the victims here especially the children and spouses of those who believe this stuff, those people may suffer the most.
Where's the compassion of the Icke fans?
All of this has nothing to do with Icke, this is about a charlatan who is leading people to do their doom.
Icke fans should be open to all possibility especially the possibility that a different view of things is necessary for some people to realize what's going as is pointed out below:
I've had PMs from people, two lots of PMs. One is sort of like, "Thank you for waking me up I didn't actually realize what I was doing, I just got caught in this stuff.
If Icke fans had any real awareness they'd be happy that more information is being put out there so that people can make better decisions but what we're seeing from Icke fans in this thread is the opposite.
Why is it important to get this truth out? Knowledge is power. As is pointed out in the following video, some people have been led to a place they don't want to be because of Icke's belief system and they need help. I think about my friend and I'm sad that I didn't help him to overcome his insanity, I just cut him off. I may be trying to make up for that by doing this thread. I have a ton of compassion for people like him.
We've got the people who claim "Infinite love is the only truth..." showing no sympathy or compassion whatsoever. They won't show any sympathy or compassion for the suffering that Icke will do and has done with his other claims. I think that speaks for itself.
Quoting from this video below:
"Since my little bundle with David dIcke and of course him owning himself so spectacularly by claiming that the moon is a giant spacecraft inhabited by aliens controlling us with mind rays, I've had PMs from people, two lots of PMs. One is sort of like,
"Thank you for waking me up I didn't actually realize what I was doing, I just got caught in this stuff.
Well, yeah, you know, because, you know TV programs are called a program for a reason and you know, movies are the same thing, they are a program. They are a program that goes in your head and it will stay there, you know. The more interesting they make it, the more exciting they make it, the more it will fiddle with your mind. It will just, you know, mess around with you there and you want to hear words like matrix and blue pill, red pill, and you know the rabbit hole, and the spider's web and stuff like that. Because it makes for a good dungeons and dragons conversation. But, big kids get together and that's what they do, they're playing dungeons and dragons and they don't even realize it....
Do this: go and start telling your friends and all your families and your workmates and everyone that you meet,
start telling them that you believe what David dIcke has said. You believe that the moon is a giant spaceship full of aliens controlling us with mind rays
You discover that your wife has been having an affair behind your back and you say to her, "Why did you do it?" And she says,
"I'm sorry baby but the aliens in the moon with the mind rays, they made me do it. It's not my fault." Are you gonna believe her? Are you?
I don't think you are, are you? But, you see, this is the problem. If you're prepared to accept that the moon is a giant spaceship full of aliens controlling you with mind rays then you're gonna have to accept that your wife or your girlfriend or your husband or whoever one day can turn around and say that to you..."

A Chat with PJ Hogan
03 October 2012 , 12:09 PM by Michael Clarke
He's the Aussie filmmaker who made us laugh with "Muriel's Wedding", and now PJ Hogan is back with a new movie.
"Mental" stars his "Muriel's" muse Toni Collette in a wacky, sharp comedy that's drawn from the filmmaker's own life.
I spoke to PJ Hogan during his recent visit to Townsville, and asked him about making the film, coming back to Australia from Hollywood and how many times people say "you're terrible Muriel" to him.

Ob-Gyn questions? Ask a gynecologist online.
Hello, I am Dr Owen, I am a Board Certified Ob/Gyn Medical Doctor and I want to help you.
I know it is a very odd question
Yes, if you use progesterone for a week you will delay your ovulation by as much as 5 to 7 days
Great. I just wanted to make sure I wasn't going to skip ovulation altogether. I will just use it for a week (most of which will be during my period)
,] '
Yes, and so what will happen is that you might bleed again when you stop the Progesterone - so don't be alarmed with that
I wish you well
If you have more questions, please ask

text: Highlights of the 56th BFI London Film Festival Today sees the start of the UK's largest public film event featuring the premieres of Frankenweenie and Great Expectations - here's what to look out for... Comments Written By Barnaby Walter 11:40 AM, 10 October 2012 The 2012 BFI London Film Festival kicks off its 12 day programme today, beginning with tonight's premiere of Tim Burton's big-screen stop-motion animation, Frankenweenie. The Official Competition selection boasts some big names in independent cinema. Michael Winterbottom, the prolific director whose works include A Mighty Heart and the recent Trishna, is represented by Everyday (17 October), a film about a Scottish family set over five Christmases that was filmed in two-week periods over five years. It stars Shirley Henderson and John Simm. Winterbottom is joined by Sally Potter with Ginger and Rosa (pictured above, 13 October), and In Bruges director Martin McDonagh and his film Seven Psychopaths (19 October). Also included is Deepa Mehta's adaptation of Salman Rushdie's novel Midnight's Children (14 October). Championing homegrown talent, the selection also features a long list of UK premieres, with Michel Franco's After Lucia (20 October), David Ayer's End of Watch (11 October) and François Ozon's In the House (14 October). Gala screenings include Rolling Stones documentary Crossfire Hurricane which the band is expected to attend (18 October); Dustin Hoffman's directorial debut Quartet, starring Maggie Smith (15 October); Palme d'Or winner Amour, directed by Michael Haneke (11 October); and Ben Affleck's political thriller Argo (17 October). The festival will then be closed by Mike Newell's hotly-anticipated adaptation of Great Expectations, starring Helena Bonham Carter, Ralph Fiennes and Jeremy Irvine, which will bring the programme to an end on Sunday 21 October. The structure of the LFF has been refreshed by new festival director Clare Stewart, who previously helmed the Sydney Film Festival for five years. Titles are organised under a number of themes - Love, Debate, Dare, Laugh, Thrill, Cult, Journey, Sonic and Family - in an effort to help people discover the works that appeal to them more easily among the 200-plus list of films. The BFI is also placing more emphasis on awards this year, with additional competitive sections. *Film times refer to the first screening. Most films are to be shown over several different times and locations - check the complete programme listing on the BFI website for more details. Like this? Share it.

'Relief' as Leeds stays calm
The streets of Leeds have been mainly quiet overnight, following serious disturbances in the Harehills area of the city on Tuesday night.
At one point, about 50 Asian youths gathered close to where the trouble happened the evening before, and began hurling rocks at passing cars.
But within ten minutes calm was restored by community elders.
They said there had been "a couple of minor incidents" but nothing approaching the previous night's rioting.
BBC correspondent Mike Thomson said there was "widespread relief" among Harehills residents on Thursday morning.
But he also said there had been complaints that the police had been too soft on troublemakers on Tuesday night.
Then two dozen cars and a shop were set on fire and police were pelted with bricks and petrol bombs during the trouble, which lasted for several hours and involved about 200 people.
Police have not responded to allegations that officers mistreated him and doused him with CS spray.
But the arrested man, Hossein Miah, 31, called for calm on Wednesday.
"I don't want to encourage or support last night's violence, nor do I want any further violence, using Sunday's incident as an excuse," he said in a statement.
Mr Miah said he was "taking legal steps" to ensure his complaint against police was investigated.
Assistant Chief Constable Steve Smith said there could be no excuse for such violence.
He said: "Any attempt to legitimise criminal behaviour by saying it is connected with racial tension or the style of policing is just an excuse for young males committing crime on the streets."
Six people have been arrested. A full investigation is under way.
'Premeditated' violence
Police said the riot, in which two officers were slightly injured, was "premeditated".
Assistant Chief Constable Graham Maxwell said officers had been lured to the area by reports of a petrol bomb attack, no evidence of which had been found.
The disturbances, in a multi-ethnic area of Leeds, come less than two weeks after racial violence flared in Oldham, Greater Manchester.
But local residents agreed with police that the Harehills violence was not racially or politically motivated.
Many residents said those involved in the Harehills disturbances had travelled from elsewhere, possibly Oldham.
But police said they have so far found no evidence to prove this.

Vincent Price became Penn's 29th Provost on July 1, 2009.
Provost Price is Steven H. Chaffee Professor of Communication in the Annenberg School for Communication and Professor of Political Science in the School of Arts and Sciences. Before being appointed Provost, he served as Interim Provost, Associate Provost for Faculty Affairs, Chair of the Faculty Senate, and Associate Dean of the Annenberg School.
As the University's chief academic officer, he has advanced initiatives to diversify the faculty, develop new forms of teaching and learning, expand Penn's global presence, enhance arts and culture on campus, and facilitate interdisciplinary research and teaching. He led Penn's role as one of the first partners in Coursera, the online open learning platform, and served as founding Chair of Coursera's University Advisory Board.
He is a leading global expert on public opinion, social influence, and political communication. His Public Opinion (Sage, 1992) has been published in six languages and taught in courses around the world. His work has been widely cited on such topics as the impact of political polls, the effects of TV news coverage, and the factors that shape public opinion. His recent research conducted with Annenberg colleague Joseph N. Cappella and funded by grants from the Pew Charitable Trusts, National Science Foundation, and National Institutes of Health has explored the increasingly important role of online discussion in shaping public knowledge and opinion.
Provost Price is former editor-in-chief of Public Opinion Quarterly, the leading journal of public opinion research; former guest editor of both Communication Research and Political Communication; and an active board member of several academic journals. He has taught as a Visiting Professor at the University of Paris-Sorbonne and the University of Amsterdam, and he has delivered more than 100 presentations at universities and colloquia around the world.

Kyoon Hur Award from the International Communication Association, the Nafziger-White Award from the American Association in Journalism and Mass Communication, and the Award of Recognition from the American Association of Public Opinion Research.
Provost Price earned a PhD (1987) and MA (1985) in Communication from Stanford University and a BA magna cum laude (1979) in English from the University Honors Program at Santa Clara University. He came to Penn in 1998 from the University of Michigan, where he was Chair and Associate Professor of Communication Studies and a Faculty Associate of the Center for Political Studies.

If you are wondering how we did, it's all here, albeit a bit late! Despite October being an insane month and having too many demands on our time we did OK. As some of you may know, our hundred acre farm is up for sale and we have had many showings that we need to prepare for, then be out of the house for hours.
We also have the pressure of getting ready for winter closing in and winter up here in Ontario is something you have to be prepared for when you have livestock that need water that won't freeze, pressure washing poop from coops is far from glamorous!
Nathan professionally interviewed three virtual assistants and hired one great guy that has been helping us out the past few weeks. Nathan had worked up an interview package for each applicant and was back in his old management zone.
There is a little bit of a learning curve on both ends having a full time employee, so things have been a little slower than we would have liked and the process longer, though Virtual Staff finders were very thorough. We have been making instructional screen capture videos (we learned how) and figuring out procedures to help him do his job. Much of it I know but Nathan doesn't yet so I had to do videos too. We have learned how to use Skype, Lastpass and Google Docs too! Who knew there was so much to do? Hopefully things are on an even keel now and I can get on with my book.
So on to the numbers! I think Capstone mentioned this number a couple months back and I honestly wasn't expecting it…..

- Squidoo Conservative estimate for adshare $331.00 (could be another $150 or so higher, it will be officially calculated by Squidoo in 6 weeks).
Grand Total was $8,034.28
Corrected to $8584.63 on 11/12 payday so $550.35 more from Squidoo than expected
Sales stats
Average Amazon sales per day (total of Squidoo and my own links) were $5,071, up from $4,556.67 last month, and the total Oct sales of products of $157,210 approx. Crazy stuff!
I also had a number of Halloween costumes keywords and we outsourced after the last earnings report and posted 20 lenses between the 9th and 20th of Oct and they paid for themselves with crazy 200+ a day traffic in the last few shopping days.
Average Earnings
Average earnings per article is $11.60 over all our 740 or so articles (not including the purchased ones, negligible income there right now-per tracking)
Average Amazon earnings per Squidoo article is $16.49 per article over 429 lenses, up from last month. I counted $3,535.48+550.35 in from Squidoo from my own Amazon affiliate results for an estimated Squidoo (Amazon only) total of $7073.58.
Reasons for an upswing on per article earnings, I need to check stats on this and not sure if I will spend that much time on it, but I think some of my everyday type articles (not really seasonal ones) published in late summer articles had higher allintitle competition overall (like in the 200-300 range) after the cherry phrases were done already in my favorite niches, and now these are maturing (or getting decent traffic and sales) a couple of months later than we were seeing before.
Also, holiday traffic is starting I think too. We are definitely seeing holiday sales since about the third week in October, more video games and kids toys.
I am starting to add more in-text links in the Squidoo lenses to our own Amazon affiliate account and that has increased ctr and sales too.
I am pleased we are up to over $800 non-Squidoo income which means the diversification plan is starting to work. Christmas seems to be boosting Zazzle sales and traffic and it would be nice to keep that momentum going in the new year.
I think the tips I have learned from Jason Mayers ebook about Adsense are paying off as that has nearly doubled this month (making payout within one month for the first time ever, it had been taking me two months to crack $100 at about $65 a month) after editing some of the higher traffic articles on Seekyt and IB. Also any non-Squidoo articles our VA is posting are being optimized on publishing for better Adsense earnings.
I have 2 more Kindle books finished this month (outsourced) but not posted yet (along with about 6 others), so am looking forward to getting those all up, maybe around or after Christmas. The three e-books I have now are increasing sales monthly, even with no reviews on them or promo at all! Like article marketing, the more items you have published, the greater and more diverse your income streams and the more you can learn from your results to fine tune your game plan.
One of my favorite e-book freelance writers, who is not in the USA, messaged me to let me know that he can no longer take our work off the Zerys job board, and can only take assigned work. He has written a few great e-books for me so I found myself doing the research and looking for more work for him to do to help him out, and get some more books in the publishing backlog.
Increasing Efficiency
There is much we wanted to get done this month but didn't, one of the universal things in internet marketing I guess. I seem to be distracted and working way less that I was when I was home alone too. Moving house and the associated constant interruptions doesn't help, I crave a whole open day to get work done! I am travelling to the UK to visit family in November-December, so that will slow me down for sure, though I can't wait to get into the chocolate there!
So we started listening to the "4 hour work week" audio book in the truck when we have to be out of the house for showings. We (I) are trying to become more efficient and I have fired up the Dragon Naturally Speaking and got a Blue Yeti Mic and it is awesome as I am a terribly bad and slow typer, you have no idea! Nathan has a Blue Snowball for Skyping with the VA, as the computer mics were horrible and any $40 ones we found locally.
The Market Samourai guys are doing a Business Hacks webinar next week that I will be watching and I plan to start using many of their time-saving tips.
November is the time to be writing gift articles on Squidoo!
I cannot bring myself to write first person for general gift articles, despite Squidoo Quests asking for that. But, at worst, I recommend following the Quests and try to get that additional front page exposure if you are not confident in your keyword ratios. This helped me a ton last Christmas and I highly recommend it. Squidoo gives little mini-leaks and hints on what searches traffic are hot and that they are getting, so you can grab last minute shoppers and traffic.
I am finding the Top 10 a nice format. Multiple product options (up to 5) per type of gift give the best click through, though I have not made many sales yet on this years new ones yet, still early I guess! The more product options the better, but they have to make sense and be selected carefully, making each lens take over 2 hours to post even when the content is pre-written/outsourced.
So how was October for everyone? Are you starting to get some Amazon sales? What are your plans for the upcoming shopping season?

Scotland Yard has identified and named the murder victim who was discovered tied up and dumped in a Surrey well two weeks ago.
Scotland Yard named the man as 30-year-old Damian Chlywka, a Polish national who came to the UK in 2008. He is thought to have been murdered two years ago.
Workmen discovered his body in a well outside an address in Audley Drive, Warlingham, Surrey, on November 15.
A 41-year-old man and a 33-year-old man, who were arrested for murder on November 29, are in custody at south London police stations.
A team of specialist officers including Metropolitan Police divers had found that Mr Chlywka's body showed injuries "consistent with an assault" before he was put in the well. He had been bound and it is believed he had been there for roughly two years, Scotland Yard said.
Further tests are being carried out as a post-mortem held on November 17 did not provide a cause of death.
Detective Chief Inspector Cliff Lyons, the officer leading the investigation, said: "Damian had lived at various addresses across London including two known to be in the Croydon area. At one point he had lived at 11A Audley Road.
"Our focus now is to build up a fuller picture of Damian's life in the UK.
"We have given the difficult and heartbreaking news to his family who are distraught that this has happened to their loved one.
"I am appealing to anyone who knew or previously worked with him to contact the police and help us to piece together a picture of Damian's life and how it came to end in these distressing circumstances."
The seven men, aged between 21 and 27, who were arrested on suspicion of murder, have been released on bail until a date in late December.

University Creates Biofeedback Station To Relieve Student Stress & Raise Test Scores
The increasing popular university program is helping students cope with anxiety and increase performance.
The four-year old Biofeedback Program at Iowa State University's Student Counseling Center is garnering national attention, with its large student enrollment and successful results. Todd Pietruszka, student counseling service staff psychologist, created the center on campus to help relieve students' stress and anxiety using a series of three programs: "Healing Rhythms", "Passage" and "Wisdom Quest." Each addresses different problems that students could be experiencing, including severe testing anxiety and stress-management.
Jeffrey Ellen, psychologist and coordinator of the Biofeedback Program and Mind/Body Center, says this of the program:
Once a student learns to reduce their anxiety using skills learned through biofeedback training, their performance increases significantly — often resulting in dramatic improvements in academic performance. That's where biofeedback training comes in; biofeedback teaches students to notice the early signs of anxiety before that same anxiety negatively affects the functions of the brain that are important for peak performance.
Hoping to help participants gain a larger sense of wellness and confidence, the program is available to ISU students.
For more information, visit the Biofeedback Page on the university's website.

ITV faced more than 2,000 complaints from disgruntled football fans yesterday after cutting to an advert break and missing the winning goal in an FA Cup tie.
Michael Grade, ITV's chairman, called the mistake "inexcusable" and began an internal inquiry, while the Football Association wanted an explanation.
When almost 7 million viewers should have seen Everton's Dan Gosling score with two minutes of extra time left to win the game against Liverpool, they were instead watching adverts for Tic-Tacs and Volkswagen cars.
Grade blamed the incident on an "unprecedented technical error". It is thought an automated system used to play out adverts was not updated to accommodate either extra time or penalties.
Grade later hinted of sackings. "There may be a few yellow and red cards."
Viewers in the south missed the goal, getting only a shot of Everton players celebrating on the turf. The problems went on as ITV cut to a post-match interview then broadcast its logo for more than a minute when it should have switched to News at Ten.

Kalpesh Lathigra, 39, is an award-winning documentary photographer whose projects often explore forgotten communities. While shooting one such group - widows in India - he began to think about visual representations of spirituality, resulting in a series about the holy city of Varanasi, from which this image is taken.
British-born Lathigra says he wanted to get away from "National Geographic" India: "I didn't want to be literal, with hands clasped in 'namaste'. It was about showing an emotional space - what the pilgrims may be seeing and feeling. The boys diving in the Ganges are almost a cliche, but there is a contrast between the frozen moment as the boy dives and the history of this ancient place."

|Topic Review (Newest First)
anyone out there from south florida?
I'm a 41 yo guy from delray beach. Sailed as a kid. Started getting back into dinghy sailing recently (lasers and flying Scots). Looking to get experience on other boats (dinghies or larger boats) before i buy a boat. Right now job and life maintain my weekend warrior status. Am willing to crew or help with maintenance. Also just want to see who's out there and on sailnet. Its weird. There seems to be a strong sailing presence north of me (Stuart/Jensen beach) and south (lauderdale/Miami/keys) - small in palm beach - but little directly in my area. Maybe I'm just not aware? At any rate - who's out there?

Hi all,
I've been wanting to upgrade my exhaust looks and sound for awhile now and I think I've settled on;
Axleback, Quad Tip
Now I'm not looking to sound like a Harley, but I do want something a bit more than stock. After listening to a dozen different exhausts, I've found the Perrin sounds very reasonable, a nice upgraded rumble at idle, not ridiculously loud under 3k RPMs, but nastier if wanted above that. And the 3.5" slant cuts should look so much better.
I've never made any such mod to a car before, so after some research, I have some assertions and questions that maybe an experienced one can verify/answer;
- A CBE does not add any extra power, so would there be a reason to get a CBE when I can just get an axel back and have everything I am looking for - upgraded sound and rear aesthetics?
- With 3.5" tips, is there a concern about heat and melting the bottom of the bumper or not? I read that with 4", you should install a heat shield, but is there any concern for 3.5" tips?
- The installation guide says to check local laws because these are sold for off-road and racing purposes only. Is this just a generic statement or am I really going to get pulled over with a better looking, slightly louder exhaust?
- My local laws limit vehicle noise to no more than 90db over 35mph and less than 86db under 35mph. I can't find any noise measurement specs for Perrin. Is this something you think would be posted somewhere, or something I should just not worry about, unless I was going with a TurboXS CBE or something else notoriously loud...?
- An axel back (or CBE for that matter) does NOT change emissions whatsoever, so I'd have no reason to worry about state inspections or anything.
- I plan on doing the install myself as it doesn't really sound all that difficult, is there anything I need to be careful about here?
Hope I don't sound like an idiot, I have a feeling this is a non-issue for people who are really into cars, but I have to admit I'm a bit nervous about making the change.

Transition from tile to laminate without t-bar
3 Attachment(s)
I am planning on replacing this ugly click cork flooring in my kitchen with ceramic tile. I have recently re-done my main floor with linage flooring.
The two floors will have the same height so my question is what can I use for a transition other than a t-bar?
I used the t-bar for the transition to the bathroom and I don't mind it too much there because there is a door, my kitchen has two wide openings and I don't like the look of the t-bar for that application.
Some thoughts I had are below, wondering if anyone has done it another way and could let me know the results over time:
- use a metal edge piece that is usually used when you tile a wall?
- use a 2" or 3" tile strip in between tile an laminate, but how would leave the space where the tile meets the laminate?

Laminate needs room for expansion and contraction, if not it's going to buckle or pull apart. One of those metal strips will hold it down to tight.
Sure looks like you did not leave any room where it meets that wall.
It doesn't show well in the pic but there is between 1/8" - 1/4" space.

hi rusty,
the gist of the post is that i have a

transition from laminate to ceramic

tile that i will be putting in and i

dont want to use a t-bar for

aesthetic purposes and i dont want

anything raised. i was looking

for suggestions for other options

for transitions.

hope you can read this one
Are you sure they will be the same height? In the photos it looks like you have a plywood subfloor. You need to add an uncoupling membrane like Ditra to this before tiling. That adds an 1/8 of an inch. You also have the thinset to consider. Putting Ditra down with a loose mix and the tile on top with a heavier mix will probably add at least 3/16. A lot of tile now is anywhere from 1/4 to 3/8 thickness. Unless you are planning to make a big mistake by setting tile directly to the plywood then I think your ceramic is going to come out higher than you think. Which might be a good thing. Schluter makes a few different offset reducers in various metal finishes that may work just fine for your application. The Reno-V for example is meant for tile to carpet transition. It has a moveable leg on one side that adjusts to the carpet or in your case the laminate height that abuts the tile. If it does come out exactly even you could use the Reno-T. This is still a T-molding but at least it's metal and comes in a couple different finishes.

Thanks poppameth, I was planning on using wire mesh and thunder the same way my bathroom was done about 6 years ago (I did not lay the tile in the bathroom but I can see where the floor vent is they used wire). The laminate is perfectly even with that.
My subfloor is the original 1x3 strips with a 1/2" plywood on top of that.
The photo I have included is my subfloor under the linage but it is the same in the kitchen

Also since I already have a pretty sturdy subfloor if wire mesh and thinset isn't advisable is this fiberock sufficient?
Attachment 82340

You can use the fiberock. It's cheaper. The ditra is a better system and easier to work with.

The Herald-Dispatch
HUNTINGTON -- A convicted sex offender now faces allegations that he conspired to distribute more than 100 grams of heroin and possessed a firearm in the process, according to an indictment unsealed this week.
Raymond Dale Roe, 58, was arrested Tuesday. A Drug Enforcement Administration agent served the arrest warrant in Huntington.
A U.S. District Court indictment charges Roe, also known as Rudy, with conspiring to distribute more than 100 grams of heroin, distributing heroin, possessing with intent to distribute heroin, possessing a firearm in relation to a drug crime and being a convicted felon in possession of a firearm.
The indictment accuses Roe of participating in a heroin trafficking conspiracy between August 2008 and May 19, 2009, in Huntington.
The May 19 date coincides with the execution of a search warrant at Roe's residence in the 1000 block of Rear Jefferson Avenue. Earlier court documents state authorities confiscated 60.4 grams of heroin and a loaded .32 caliber American Double Action pistol.
The search followed Roe selling heroin to a confidential informant, the earlier criminal complaint said.
Cabell Circuit Court convicted Roe of third-degree sexual assault on Sept. 18, 2002, according to the indictment and the state's sex offender registry. The registry states Roe served approximately 5 years in a correctional facility.
Roe's sex assault victim was a teenage girl between 13 and 17.
The indictment was returned Aug. 26 by a grand jury meeting in Huntington. It was unsealed Tuesday following Roe's arrest. He was incarcerated at the Carter County Detention Center in Grayson, Ky.
Members of the Huntington Police Department, the U.S. Drug Enforcement Administration and the Bureau of Alcohol, Tobacco and Firearms participated in the investigation
I live about 3 blocks from this pond scum. Just another reason to carry (with permit of course) in case you happen upon this creep and his sleazy business and he feels paranoid enough to try to tag you with his .32. I'm all about the "public hanging" sort of thing for this type criminal, but this is WV and it won't happen.

TUCSONThe Tucson Padres trailed the Reno Aces 1-0 after three innings when heavy rainstorms hit Kino Stadium and forced the suspension of Monday's game. The two teams will finish Monday's game Tuesday at 5:30 pm, with the regularly scheduled game to be played after the completion of the first game. The second game Tuesday will be seven innings in length. Courtesy of Tim Hagerty, Director of Broadcasting and Media Relations for the Tucson Padres.
Missions 7 - Frisco RoughRiders 4
Key Statistics: C. Decker 2-3, 2B, 2B, HR(19), 3 RBIs, 2BB; 3B Rincon 3-4, BB; 2B Anna 1-3, 2BBs; SS Valdez 1-4, HR(7), 2 RBIs; RHP Geer (W) 7.0 IP 7H 4R 4ER 2BBs 4Ks, 2HRs; RHP Lara (H) 1.0 IP BB 2Ks; RHP McBryde(S)(10) 1.0 IP K.
A three-run home run by Cody Decker and a two-run blast by SS Judy Valdez was all the Missions needed in Frisco as Josh Geer, who gave up two home runs of his own, was enough for San Antonio to get the win in Frisco. The former UCLA Bruin struggled in his promotion to AAA Tucson but he is certainly back on track with San Antonio with 11 extra-base hits in 17 games.
Closer Jeremy McBryde is now ten for ten in save opportunities.
Inland Empire 66ers 4 - Storm 4

Reliever Quigley gave up a two-run home run in the eighth to send the Storm down on the road to Inland Empire in San Bernardino.
Big Matt Lollis is going back to starting and went six strong innings and Rico Noel stole three more bases to bring his total to 63. His next closest rival in the organization, Fort Wayne's Jace Peterson has 37 steals.

FORT WAYNE, Ind. – A collective offensive effort by the Fort Wayne TinCaps Monday night ended with a 7-4 win over the Wisconsin Timber Rattlers in the rubber match of a three-game series at Parkview Field.
Eight of the nine members of Fort Wayne's starting lineup had at least one base hit, led by solo home runs from Tyler Stubblefield and Felix Cabrera.
Early offense was a vital part of the Fort Wayne (13-11, 44-50) effort, as Stubblefield's fourth home run of the season gave the TinCaps a 1-0 lead after one inning. The Timber Rattlers Cameron Garfield responded with a second-inning solo homer, tying the game. Wisconsin (12-12, 56-37) scampered ahead 2-1 in the top of the third, but The TinCaps would take the lead for good in the bottom of the inning.
Mike Gallic, Yeison Asencio and Duanel Jones all knocked in runs in the third, putting Fort Wayne ahead 4-2. The TinCaps sent seven men to the plate in that frame against Timber Rattlers starter Mark Williams (5-7). Felix Cabrera hit his first home run of the season, a solo blast, in the fourth against Williams. The righthander worked five innings and allowed five runs on eight hits, while striking out two.
Frank Garces (6-4) earned his fifth win in his last six outings, by allowing two runs over five innings for the TinCaps. The lefty walked three and struck out three.
Each team would score twice more over the final four innings, with the TinCaps adding two in the seventh and the Timber Rattlers plating two in the ninth. The win for the TinCaps helped secure a sixth series victory in eight tries to begin the second half.

So while Cara and her parents and Cara's friend Amy were on vacatiopn, Harry and Erin took care of the house and evertying. Well, the day before they got home, Harry and Erin had me and Blizz outside while they were swimming. It was around 2 in the morning and I chased something into the cornner of the yard. Next thing I know, I had a gross smell all over me and my face and in my mouth! I rubbed my face on the ground and Blizz rolled around and Erin knew what happened. Afterwards, they bathed us with tomato juice which they discovered doesn't work on dogs but it did taste good as I drank it. They eventually figured out how to get the smell off, though they couldn't put the stuff on my face so my face does still smell skunkish but not to badly! To think this all happened yesturday, 8/7/07.
I was sitting in my cage, still sad about being left by my family. Tons of dogs were barking and jumping and I had been placed next to two small aussie pups. I knew at that moment nobody would take me home. The guy who took care of me while I was at the pound told me earlier that day that I would find a home today, but I didn't believe him.
I spotted Cara and her parents coming, not satisfied with the dogs in the other room. Cara looked at me as did her parents. They said something about me not being a small dog but they read over my papers anyway. I stayed quiet at this point, thinking maybe if I was quiet they'd take me home. Cara looked from my papers to me, telling her mom something about them. They had read that I could cay 'I love you'! She asked me to say it and I did, which got me into a barking frenzy of repeating myself over and over.
That's when they fell inlove with me. They took me outside then we went back in and they filled out the papers while I whinned excitedly since I'm part collie and collies love to talk. The guy who was my caretaker said goodbye to me and we left.
In the car I lied on Cara and whined, while her mom called Keith, telling him about me. They decided to change my name from Puddles (which I'm lad they changed it) and they listed off a few names. Cara's mom said Max and I looked at her so they named me Max after the Grinch's dog. Cara says my full name's Maximus like the gladiator. I like it.
They took me to the house and into the backyard so I could meet Blizzard. She was scared at first but soon became to love me. We went to grandma's house after that. She doesn't like me because I'm big. I don't understand why though. I'm a good dog.
After grandma's we came home and Cara's mom called Erin asking if she wanted to go to the petstore with us. She said yes and came out, the second she saw me in the car she started crying because she had a collie named Petri and I remind her of him. I was supposidly bad at the petstore... I only wanted to see the people and other dogs.
Well, ever since that day I've been a perminate part of the family and scared of the cats. I love the long walks I get taken on with Blizzard and the occasional trip to the dog park to make some new friends. I also love Erin's parents' dog, Jasmine. She's a pit bull/ german shepherd mix. She came to the dog park with us on Blizzard's birthday and I've gone over her house to play before. Yep, my care taker was right. I did find a very good home that day.
Ugh, I sure do hate those stupid Bikes. I was taken on a walk and I tackled some guy on a bike into a fence. After that I got yelled at. I don't understand why I was yelled at. It's not like I hurt the man. I just hate bikes.

Commentary: Taxes at fault, not 'corporate deserters'
President Obama wants to lash "corporate deserters" — companies that move overseas to avoid U.S. taxes — with penalties and additional regulations.
It is another case of the president trying to pit Americans against one another instead of supporting an economy that would offer more jobs and opportunities for everyone.
"These companies are cherry-picking the rules, and it damages the country's finances," the president said in California last week. "It adds to the deficit. It sticks you with the tab to make up for what they are stashing offshore."
Decrying the lack of "corporate patriotism" may sound good on the campaign stump, but if the president was genuinely interested in keeping American companies from shifting operations overseas, he would attack the country's tax burden.
The nation's 35 percent corporate tax rate is the highest in the industrial world, and even though exemptions allow some companies to pay considerably less, the U.S. tax rate remains unduly burdensome, precisely the reason more companies are moving abroad.
As The Wall Street Journal points out, when state taxes are added, the average corporate tax rate in the United States is 40 percent, double the average in Europe.
Small wonder companies look for relief.
Since 1983, according to the Congressional Research Service, 76 companies have moved their corporate headquarters from the United States — 47 in the past decade.
The Journal reports 19 such deals in the past year.
A recent Journal article reported that "American businesses are taxed on a worldwide basis regardless of where in the world revenue is earned. This means U.S. multinationals pay taxes twice, first to the foreign country in which they do business and then to the U.S."
It seems to us that "corporate patriotism" should mean making American businesses as strong as possible. The president — and Congress — should stop looking for scapegoats and get serious about corporate tax reform.

In a speech last week, [Commerce Department undersecretary for intellectual property] Rogan said that "negotiations are presently underway among hardware manufacturers and content owners to develop improved means for protecting online content," and legislators should wait for results before voting on a proposal such as the Hollings bill.Those negotiations are the BPDG, a consipiracy of 15-some tech and entertainment companies. They're writing a "standard" that they've asked Hollings to give the FCC the power to give the force of law to. It will be illegal to manufacture or distribute any device or software that can access digital broadcast TV if it doesn't meet the "standard."
"Before Congress rushes into the imposition of a legislative solution," Rogan said, "I hope its members will grant more time for the free market to find its own middle ground."
And what will the "standard" require? Well, for starters, all tech will have to be "tamper-resistant," which means that you won't be able to tinker with the hardware and software you own. Open source will be illegal.
Those devices that are allowed will only be permitted to incorporate cables and media that limit copying. And new technologies will only be added to the list of permitted tech if Hollywood says so (the standard that the studios have proposed for evaluating new tech is "We'll know it when we see it").

For the past day, I've been at a small workshop on spectrum policy hosted by the Aspen Institute. Aspen regularly assembles key figures from the government, private sector and academia to frame emerging communications and Internet policy issues. This one was interesting. I was there to advocate open spectrum and unlicensed wireless technologies, like 802.11/WiFi. It was heartening to see the level of awareness about WiFi among the lawyers, economists, lobbyists and policy-makers. They realize something important is going on here. Still, most of them were shocked when I mentioned there are now 1.5 million WiFi cards being sold every month.Link Discuss Read the rest

The TLD Secretariat could easily be a single person. Her or his allegiance would be first to the root server operators, then to the ccTLDs, and lastly to the gTLDs. A stable, well-respected, international Internet organization would appoint the TLD Secretariat. While there are benefits to having the ITU organize the ccTLD administrators, it would be completely unsuited selecting the TLD Secretariat because it isn't well regarded in the Internet community or by the root server operators. The Internet Society (ISOC) would be a much better choice.Link Discuss Read the rest
Given ICANN's current penchant for secrecy and closed meetings, the new TLD Secretariat will have a harder time gaining the world's trust. Fortunately, it wouldn't be difficult to make all correspondence to and from the TLD Secretariat a matter of public record. Although this might initially cause some consternation for the commercial registries that have benefited from ICANN's methods, it will build trust in the system.

Have you ever had the rather bizarre thoughts; "Man, I really wish I could use Android on my iPhone/iPad" or "I wish Apple would release an iPhone/iPad with Android on it"? Well the latter is never going to happen. Sorry. The former however, could be possible sometime in the not-so-far future. It seems some in-development software – currently known as OpeniBoot – is apparently going to be a gateway bringing the possibility of having Google's Android OS on iOS devices.
Although the software is currently in it's early stages and may not be ready for a while, but those who are currently developing the OpeniBoot software have released a video (which can be viewed through the link below) which shows OpeniBoot matrixing it's way into an iPad, with the end result being that the iPad is open for use. The software is effectively an open source version of Apple's own iBoot. The end result will hopefully be that unsigned code can be put into the device, giving way for something such as the Android OS on your iPhone, iPad, or iPod Touch.
More information regarding the in-development software can be found on the project on the iDroidPrjoect website. We'll be sure to keep an eye out on any major developments on this.

So as stated, I am 20yrs old and I'm getting a breastlift. Ever since I can remember developing breasts, I always wanted to have a breast reduction because up until about a year ago, I was a size 34G. However, after losing 40lbs, I find myself on the opposite end of the spectrum of not having full enough breasts. I've been told I look like I've nursed a child with how much they sag because I still have a good amount of breast tissue, I wear a 34DD bra, but I have so much extra skin because they were HUGE. This depresses me since I worked so hard to finally lose those 40lbs to get to where I'm at now which is 5'2" 120-125lbs. I cant even wear a bikini top because they just fall out of it.
I've booked my surgery with Frederick Weniger from Bluffton SC for Nov 21st of this year. I discussed getting under the muscle implants, saline, smooth apprcx 250 for my left and 225 for my right because my breasts have slight asymmetry which will be highlighted with the lift.

George Lucas just messed up the only truly great scene and moment in Return of the Jedi, way to go....
that was pointless. y the nooooo? 28 years later and that was the change unbelievable
it makes me want to punch babies.
Kinda stupid but not as bad as I thought it would be
Punch babies? Lol u crazy bro
Trust me, I have read and seen a lot more than this! Anyone see the scene with blinking Wicket? Yeah, ol crazy George thought the Ewoks needed to blink now! Also he replaced Obi Wan's dragon scream that scares the sandpeople in Ep IV with something that sounds like a drunk guy howling. And he made Jabba's front door RIDICULOUSLY huge. Just stupid stuff that didn't need to be changed. It's sad that we can't have the versions of the movies that stood for 20 years. What began in 1997 was a dismantling of classic theater. The versions now are almost parodies of the originals.
All the Star Wars Blu-Ray Changes For Your Viewing Displeasure - Topless Robot
AND apparently there weren't enough rocks around R2 when he hid from the sandpeople!!
well that's just rediculous!!! guess it's time for a reboot with someone that gives a shiit!
You know one change that George made in the 90's that irratated me (and I never here anyone else talk about) is the change at the sarlacc when Han is trying to save Lando. Lando shouts "wait I thought you were blind".......in the original Han says "trust me". Which is a very Han Solo thing to say. In the updated version Han says "Its ok I can see a lot better now".
The systematic emmasculation of Han Solo, such a shame.
Han shot first.
I wanted to confirm something, so I just watched the vhs version from 1987. I'm not certain, but I believe the only change at this point was the addition of "A New Hope." (Someone please correct me if that is not the case).
At any rate, Han shot--end of story. There was no first or last. While there are a few very minor things that I don't mind change-wise, I would be much, much, much happier if things had not been tampered with at all.
Most of the changes are pretty minor and can be easily overlooked. However, the Vader scene is just silly, over the top, unnecessary, and lacking any sense of subtlety that it used to have. George Lucas: Prequelizing our original trilogy one special edition at a time!
But... Why?! For Glodenrod's sake! It's pointeless!
Star Wars would be even greater if George Lucas walked away from it...
Hmm. . . not too keen on the "No!" clip.
The Ewok eyelids actually make sense. That's something that bugged me about ROTJ. Any animal with an eye like that has to blink.
Have to wait and see about other changes I guess.
I really don't get why they keep updating them. The movies are already perfect the way they are.
does the list go something like:
stomping kittens.......
kicking puppies.....
punching babies....
i have no words.....i mean i'm going to get it anyway....
Why the cg Jabba in A New Hope!? I absolutely hate the rendering of him. Ole jabba must have really started eating the cheeseburgers and fries with extra mayo after after Episode IV ' cause he is much to skinny in ANH!!!!
it was because they had intended him to be a human...but that wasnt right was it...he was in ep1 fat as ROTJ its not the end of the world guys
Maybe Jabba got on the Jenny Craig diet after Episode I. Size matters not! Judge me by by my size do you? maybe Yoda stole those words from Jabba???
Not buying this and this is a perfect reason why. Give me the Originals or nothing at all
WOW kenchan so ur not gonna buy it? Well that is ur choice me I will have these baby's at 12:01 thursday night even gonna wear out boba to pick mine up, don't really care to much for the change's but it will be nice to watch on blu ray but it's all about the bonus material for me 40 hrs, makes my mouth water lol!
Lol, what was that? I liked the first 'no', but the second, long one... That was just a ***-moment. Ah, well. I still love Star Wars, with or without the changes. Plus, I don't have blu-ray, so I won't have to worry too much.
This upsets me. I am watching all of them in one sitting when they're out with my mate. I will walk out fora second at this point. :P

Dan Siegel Speaks Out Against the Domain Awareness Center
Oakland Mayoral Candidate Dan Siegel Speaks Out Against Oakland Domain Awareness Center
original image (1023x1361)
Not Just Another Campaign Promise
Dan Speaks Out Against the Domain Awareness Center
Last Tuesday night, we joined 200 Oaklanders for a rally outside of City Hall to say No DAC in OAK.
The Domain Awareness Center (DAC) could potentially be the most comprehensive surveillance system in California. Funded by the Department of Homeland Security, the DAC would link cameras around the city with shot spotter gunshot detectors, license plate readers, Geographic Information Systems mapping and social media feeds. In essence, the DAC has the potential to track every movement of every Oaklander - whether they are suspected of a crime ... or not.
"We have to get after City Council to make sure that Oakland is not the first beachhead of the NSA"
The DAC is being touted as a mechanism that will make Oakland safer by allowing law enforcement agencies to better track the movements of citizens. But the truth is, there is no solid evidence that mass surveillance prevents crime.
The DAC will let authorities know …
•Where you're going and when
•Who you are and whom you are with
•What you're texting and tweeting
•The words you speak and write
As Mayor, Dan will invest in proven strategies that reduce crime like ensuring police walk neighborhoods and build solid relationships with the community, that jobs pay living wages that allow citizens to support their families and that young people are provided safe spaces to thrive and learn in community schools that are open days, nights and weekends.
City Council is preparing to vote on funding for Phase II of the Domain Awareness Center (DAC) on February 18th. We will be there to ask them not to. We hope you will join us.
Help us grow our campaign by forwarding this web page along to a friend … or two!

Cleaning yard for the Winter.
25 September 2013 Cleaning yard for Winter. 25 September 2013 Cleaning yard for Winter
Weather is sunny and warm in the afternoons and the end of my growing season is approaching. I is a perfect time to clean and tidy for over-wintering. The spent produce vegetation was pulled and put through the chipper/shredder. Weeds were pulled and the area rototilled. The area was raked smooth, and any compost ready will be applied. This is the bulk clean-up, pruning will take place later as required.

I am going to cut back my herbs today and clean up the patio and carport. When my husband has a chance we will clean up the garden, pull up stacks stack and burn what remains. Even though we try to go as natural as possible we are planning to spray the garden with a pre-emergent about December to try to get morning glories killed out. It is a losing battle when they come up in the garden, you just keep pulling and cutting. If they get the upper hand they just choke out what you have planted.09-29-2013, 02:43 PM #6

Hi everyone
How are you all? thanks very much everyone for all your group invites and pup pal requests. Its really good of you since im so new here.
What a day i had today. It was meant to be Bellas birthday party but nody was able to come as we had snow. We NEVER get snow over here so it was really exciting. Myself Bella & toby were all out playing in it for ages even though its not too good for my arthritis!
Had added some pics from today. I hope you like them :)
