Generated structures
Every specific group of blocks purposefully formed in Minecraft based on coding is part of a natural structure.
Contents |
[edit] Video
[edit] The Overworld
The Overworld contains numerous generated structures, at a wide variety of scales.
[edit] Terrain
Biomes dictate the shape and height of the world. At this stage, the ground is made entirely of stone, with water filling in any empty space below layer 63, with exception for structures.
[edit] Mountains
Mountains are hills with extreme slopes and cliffs. Prior to the Adventure Update, these highly mountainous landforms were found in all type of biomes, but from the Adventure Update onwards are very rare outside the Extreme Hills biome. They were generated as part of the terrain generation algorithm.

[edit] Floating "islands"
Floating "islands" are structures that float in midair that are not connected to the ground, the sea, hills or cliffs. Floating "islands" are normally just random pieces of floating dirt and stone found near cliffs, but on rare occasions they can be large, floating structures that even have springs and trees on them. They are actually the result of a bug which could prove to be challenging to fix, when a tall terrain is generated on top of another node of equal importance (such as a cave or a lava pool). However, due to their generally well perceived appearance, the developers at Mojang chose to embrace them as a part of standard level generation. Floating Islands are most frequently found in the Mountain, Tundra, ice mountains and Mushroom biomes, but can be found anywhere. In Multiplayer, they can be a useful place to put your base because they can be hard to reach.
[edit] Oceans
Oceans/Seas are huge bodies of water with every single water tile being a source block. The ground can rise high enough to produce small, relatively barren islands. Prior to the Adventure Update, oceans were generated as part of the terrain generation algorithm, but since then they are part of the Ocean biome.
A picture of an Ocean biome
[edit] Rivers
Rivers are long strands of water that cut through or separate biomes. They have no current. Rivers have also been known to be a reliable source of clay. In hilly or mountainous biomes/areas, the ground can rise above layer 62, producing a dry riverbed.

[edit] Hills
Hills are randomly generated pieces of land in the map. Like stairs, hills are always traverse-able to their lowest point by virtue of the algorithm which generates them; there is almost always a place on each level from where the next level can be accessed, meaning that the player can climb a hill one level at a time until they reach the top. Cases where this is not true are rare.
[edit] Beaches
Beaches usually generate next to oceans and cover all nearby shorelines. They used to come in two varieties: sand beach and gravel beach. Sandstone is located below sand in sand beaches. Gravel beaches had no such border and thus pose dangers like falling into caverns located right underneath them.
Historical notes: Due to the changes in the terrain generation algorithm in the Beta 1.8 beaches were removed completely from the game. However, as of Snapshot 12w01a and update 1.2, sand beaches have made a return, but the way they look and generate are not the same as before. Gravel beaches did not appear at all in 1.1. After Snapshot 12w07a, the generation of beaches has been greatly improved.

[edit] Surface
[edit] Surface layers
The uppermost layers of the terrain are converted to a biome-dependent material: usually grass and dirt, or sand in deserts and beaches. Sandstone is generated under sand.
[edit] Basins
Occasionally, instead of being converted to dirt or sand, the top layer is stripped away, leaving a 'Basin' of bare stone. There is a common misconception in the community that these are errors, however they are an intended feature. They bear some resemblance to a geological 'shield' (an area of tectonically stable rock that has been exposed to prolonged erosion due to its very old age; it is distinct from the geological term "basin"). They seem to be more common in Forest or Plains, and are sometimes seen filled with water. Sometimes, common minerals can be found on the surface such as coal and iron ore.
[edit] Large structures
[edit] Caverns
- Main article: Cavern
Caverns are caves and tunnels that are automatically generated under the ground in various places. Caverns are composed mainly of stone, and contain large amounts of ores. In caverns underneath deserts or beaches, you can see sandstone stalactites.

[edit] Ravines
Ravines are tall, long cracks of air, usually measuring around 30 to 50 blocks in height, making them quite dangerous if one should fall down. However, they are narrow, usually no more than 5 blocks wide. Ravines can have small ledges along the top, which are possible to travel along. Ravines can be found at any level, and also sometimes appear on the world surface, forming canyons -- a serious hazard when wandering around the countryside, as they may not be obvious until you're right at the edge... or over it. Such canyons do, from time to time, appear underwater, and there safe entry is possible. They can go very deep underground, sometimes spawning slimes or exposing diamond ore. If they reach deep enough, they may also be floored by the lava lakes at level 10.
Ravines can connect to caves, dungeons, abandoned mines, and any other generated structures. Due to the large surface area of their walls, ravines often have water and/or lava flowing down them (from springs in the walls, underground lakes, or even openings to the sea). The player can also add their own waterfall(s) from the edge, to descend more-or-less safely (watch out for lava and monsters).
[edit] Abandoned Mine Shafts
- Main article: Abandoned Mine Shaft
Abandoned Mine Shafts are structures generated underground which consist of branching mining tunnels with wooden supports, and broken rails passing through it. This is also the only place in Minecraft where venomous Cave Spiders can be found. It is easy to get lost in the labyrinth if torches or other reminder blocks are not placed. As of Minecraft 1.2, open areas generate with bridges instead of leaving floating platforms. They contain chests ( or of 13w02a Minecart with chests)that may have rare items such as diamonds and melon seeds, the latter only being found naturally in mine shafts (melon seeds can now also be obtained by trading with villagers for melon and crafted into seeds). They may also contain iron ingots, coal, pickaxes, and other useful items. They are likely to expose veins of coal, iron, lapis lazuli, and gold ore, and rarely, emerald and diamond ore.
[edit] NPC Villages
- Main article: NPC Villages
NPC Villages are generated in Desert and Plains biomes and are a site for NPC Villagers. The word NPC stands for Non Playable Character. They are composed of several different houses, farms and often a blacksmith and sometimes a tower or two. The Villagers move about in the area around the village. Villages change appearance and composition depending on the biome they are located in. In a normal world NPC Villages are most common in Deserts because it is the flattest biome (after oceans, which is not possible to have NPC villages generated on).
[edit] Strongholds
- Main article: Stronghold
Strongholds are structures that contain multiple rooms, doors and other aspects. (Some of these rooms include libraries, fountain rooms, dungeon-like rooms, etc.) stone brick, mossy stone brick, cracked stone brick, doors, iron bars, and stone slabs are the materials that make up the strongholds. They also contain silverfish, which one should be careful of when digging around in strongholds. Portals to The End are found in specific rooms in strongholds. Chests may be found containing items such as books, Redstone, Eye of Ender, apples, bread, compasses, and iron tools/armor.
[edit] Small structures
The quantity of most of these features (aside from lakes, mineral veins, and springs) are biome-dependent; not all of them can be found in every biome.
[edit] Lakes
Lakes are small bodies of water in which the player is able to swim, and are a large collection of water spring blocks. Lakes can now be generated above sea level or inside caverns, and are small bodies of water surrounded simply by dirt. When in a winter biome, these small lakes are never initially frozen but can turn to ice. These lakes can also be composed of lava; however, lakes of lava are more rare. Lava lakes found at the surface may be surrounded by gravel, sand, stone, and coal ore.
Prior to 1.2, it was possible for lava lakes to spawn 1 block above bedrock, removing the bedrock and replacing it with stone (which on survival could allow access to the void). These were quite rare and difficult to find. As of 13w17a, water oases no longer generate in deserts.
[edit] Dungeons
- Main article: Dungeon
Dungeons are small, mostly underground, one-room spaces bordered by moss stone and cobblestone, and typically contain chests with rare items, and a hostile Monster Spawner in the center, which guards the chests. The monster spawner can spawn either zombies, skeletons, or spiders (the last will include occasional spider jockey). The chests may contain rare valuables, such as music discs, enchanted books, saddles and golden apples. Rarely, there may be two dungeons generated right next to each other, this can make two dungeons in only about one space. There have also been reports of three or more dungeons in very close proximity to each other. There is a small chance of not getting a chest.
[edit] Mineral veins
A mineral vein is a natural deposit of ores. Players can come across these veins in caverns or anywhere where there is natural stone. Underground deposits of dirt and gravel are generated in this step, followed by the more precious ores: coal, iron, gold, Redstone, diamond, emerald (in extreme hill biomes 1.3.1) and lapis lazuli. They can only form in Stone, and do not replace each other or any other block.

[edit] Trees
- Main article: Tree
Trees are structures created both by the automatic generation of the map and by players (they grow from saplings). They are made of wood and leaves. Trees can range from small trees, often found in groups, to large trees that may require several minutes to harvest. In Beta 1.2, birch trees and pine trees may be found, and as of the Minecraft 1.2 update, jungle trees may be found. Jungle trees can naturally grow more than a single block thick and have vines growing on them. Cocoa plants can be found, planted and harvested on them. Saplings can be grown faster by using a bone meal on them.
[edit] Huge Mushrooms
- Main article: Huge Mushroom
Huge Mushrooms are structures that only naturally occur in mushroom biomes. They are composed of mushroom stalks and either red or brown colored blocks for the cap. They can be grown outside Mushroom Islands by fertilizing red or brown mushroom with bone meal, or can be generated with mycelium.
[edit] Plants
A variety of smaller plants may be generated: flowers, tall grass, dead bushes, lily pads, mushrooms, sugarcane, pumpkins, cactus, ferns, vines, and cocoa plants. Occasionally both red and yellow flowers may be found in clusters of their own colour.
[edit] Springs
Springs are randomly generated blocks of either lava or water that act as a source of their respective material. While both can be found on the vertical side of stone blocks above the surface, lava springs are more often found underground beneath layer 32 in caverns. Both of these sources can be collected and moved via the use of buckets. Springs can only be found in versions from Infdev onward, as fluids behaved differently in older versions.
[edit] Desert wells
First introduced in 12w04a (snapshot of 1.2), these well-like structures built of sandstone blocks and slabs generate only in the desert biome. Although assumed to be wells, their exact purpose and function is yet to be known. A proposed reason would be for filling buckets with water, since the middle water spring is infinite. Also, it is possible for a well to spawn over a stronghold or an abandoned mineshaft. They have a 1/1000 chance to be generated in any desert chunk, which makes them a rare sight. It is possible for a well to generate around a cactus. The well structure can also spawn even with the "Generate Structures" setting disabled. As of 13w17a (snapshot of 1.6) water lakes no longer generate within deserts, thus making desert wells (and desert village farms) the only "natural" source of water in desert biomes.
[edit] Temples
Temples are a kind of naturally generating structure. They contain treasure, but they also contain traps and puzzles.
[edit] Desert Temples
- Main article: Desert temple
Desert temples are a type of structure that occurs naturally in desert biomes as of snapshot 12w21a (snapshot of 1.3). Also known as pyramids, they mostly consist of wool, sandstone, chiseled sandstone, smooth sandstone and sandstone stairs. In the middle of the pyramid is a block of blue wool. Underneath it is a chamber where the player can find 4 chests which contain very valuable loot,(Although the most common loot is gold and zombie flesh) and a stone pressure plate connected to a 3x3 grid of TNT. Some treasures found in Pyramids include emeralds, diamonds, iron ingots, gold ingots, rotten flesh and bones. In version 12w23a of the game it was possible for pyramids to spawn in the jungle. The orange wool on the side of the towers resemble the Egyptian hieroglyph called the ankh, which is the symbol for life.
[edit] Jungle Temples
- Main article: Jungle Temple
Jungle temples are structures added in snapshot 12w22a (snapshot of 1.3). They contain arrow traps and hidden treasures. Jungle Temples use tripwire to activate dispensers. There is also a lock made up of pistons, levers, redstone, and redstone repeaters. When correctly operating the lock, a hatch will appear on the main floor just above it, leading to another chest. Instead of figuring out the combination, you could also dig through the wall where the levers are and get the chest.
Apart from Dungeons, Jungle Temples are the only source of Moss Stone.
[edit] Witch Huts
Witch Huts generate in swamp biomes or, very, very rarely, other biomes. Witches can spawn inside of them. The huts consist of spruce Wood Planks and oak wood. Spruce wood stairs make the roof borders, 2 fences decorate the entrance and one fence make the entrance window bars. Inside is a crafting table and an empty cauldron; on the windowsills are potted mushrooms. There's no valid way a witch can get back up into the hut if it falls off it. There are no chests or any other loot inside. It is possible, but rare, for a mushroom to generate inside the Hut while not potted, with the potted one still in place. Strangely, they are just high enough for the witches to fit in, but their hats are in the ceiling, making the animation look broken. They seem to be based on the design of Baba Yaga's hut, a witch from Slavic folklore who lived in a hut that walked around on giant chicken legs.[1]
[edit] The Nether
The Nether, though equally vast, contains far fewer types of generated structures than the Overworld.
[edit] Lava sea
Lava seas are found at and below level 30 in the Nether. They make a large portion of the Nether, and are extremely common. They can stretch for hundreds, if not thousands, of meters in any direction, and are usually bordered by Netherrack (or more rarely soul sand). Even on far render distance, the player is rarely able to see the other side of the seas due to their vastness.

[edit] Nether Fortresses
- Main article: Nether Fortress
Nether fortresses are very large complexes made mainly of nether bricks (with added nether brick fences and stairs to be found). Due to this, it is very easy to get lost in them and it may be difficult to navigate back to portals. Nether fortresses can often tunnel through Netherrack. and the inside of the tunnels will be cleared of Netherrack by the terrain generator. Blaze spawners and nether wart farms are only found in Nether Fortresses. Aside from the spawners, Blazes can spawn anywhere in the fortresses, and there are also not only Zombie Pigmen, but Wither Skeletons as well. As of 13w18b (snapshot of 1.6), Nether Fortresses have loot. The chests with loot are usually generated in corners.

[edit] Glowstone vein
Glowstone veins can be among the hardest natural materials to harvest that don't require digging. They form in coral-like structures on the underside of hanging Netherrack, so they are often found on the ceilings of the Nether, where they provide light along with the ever present lava. Luckily, there are places where the ceiling is very low, and veins there can usually be mined without undue risk.
[edit] Other
There are areas of soul sand and gravel around layer 64, and as of the 1.5 update, there is nether quartz ore and "hidden lava", which is a single block of lava in random places not visible without digging.
[edit] The End
The End is the most barren dimension, with only four types of significant structures.
[edit] The island
Most of the End is a large, asteroid-like island composed entirely of End Stone, floating in an endless void.
[edit] Fountain
The fountain is found once the Ender Dragon is defeated, giving the player a way back home. This fountain is also the foundation of the Ender Dragon egg.
[edit] Obsidian platform
The obsidian platform is a 5x5 square of obsidian where the player spawns once the player enters the End.
- Sometimes the platform spawns inside a case of Endstone. It will delete enough Endstone so that the player can walk around.
- Occasionally the platform will spawn in midair.
- Very rarely, the platform will spawn on an obsidian pillar and have an Ender crystal on it.
[edit] Obsidian pillars
- Main article: Obsidian Pillars
Obsidian pillars, or obsidian spikes, are tall, tower-like structures that generate in The End. They first appeared in 1.0.0 with the introduction of The End. No part of them are in the ground; there is no obsidian below the lowest block of obsidian that the player can see without digging. Ender Crystals will spawn on top of each one to heal the Ender Dragon.

A violent dog attack at Metro Animal Services sent one employee to the hospital with serious injuries and left another with bite wounds.
There have been three victims this week.
The latest incident happened Thursday and supervisors said it was so severe that counselors came to speak with employees Friday to talk about what they called a trauma that affected the entire organization.
"We do a dangerous job here every day, and I think we all kind of forget that," said Metro Animal Services director Justin Scally.
It became a violent reality Thursday when two pit bulls turned on a worker at the Manslick Animal Shelter.
"One of our animal specialists was going in to fix a door jam and in the process the dogs came out and as she was exiting the cage the dogs attacked her. Unfortunately, she suffered multiple bites and subsequently was transported to UofL Medical Center for treatment," Scally said.
Another worker from the Humane Society received less severe bites trying to help during the attack.
The two stray dogs came into the shelter recently as a pair. Scally said they hadn't shown any aggression, but, as with most animals at MAS, the staff has no idea of their background.
"You know, we don't know exactly what caused the incidents. Anytime you deal with animals, you have that unpredictability about what they may or may not do," Scally said.
MAS said that's true of any breed, any animal, not just pit bulls.

Like of I am about to capture Heatran, and I save it right in front of him and catch him, and I find out that he has a bad nature, will soft resetting the game change tha nature he will have when I catch him? Or is it preset?
This practice is widely considered useful, as rebooting the game will modify hidden data values. The values that determine the shininess of an in-game Pokémon is of particular interest here, as are the Pokémon's IVs and natures. Soft-resetting eliminates the need to constantly turn off (and on) the game when attempting to get a Pokémon with these specific qualities. Although time-consuming, it is a widely practiced method to get a desired Pokémon.
In some cases however, the values are preset, like how it is impossible to get a Shiny Victini legitimately, and N's Gift Zorua from Rood has it's nature set to Hasty.

Chevy picks 'Find New Roads' as tag line in global push
Alan Batey: "'Find New Roads' will help us drive even more consistency -- both internally with our employees and externally with customers." |
DETROIT -- General Motors plans to roll out a new Chevrolet advertising tag line next month, replacing the "Chevy Runs Deep" slogan with "Find New Roads."
The new theme will underpin Chevrolet marketing around the globe -- likely for many years -- as a unifying message for GM to expand its largest brand deeper into international markets.
GM will launch the tag line in the United States next month and later spread it to the other 140 markets in which Chevys are sold, the company said today.
While "Find New Roads" will be used ubiquitously in Chevy advertising, executives say it's also meant to be a guiding principle for GM's core brand, one meant to inject innovation and fresh thinking into the company's historically hidebound culture.
"It's a signature for what we are going to stand for," Alan Batey, GM's U.S. sales chief and interim global chief marketing officer, told Automotive News.
'Pushing ourselves'
"'Find New Roads' is about being innovative and pushing ourselves," Batey said. "It will drive our behavior and the way we go about our business. It's meant to challenge ourselves every day in meetings. Where is the ingenuity in this product? How are we finding new roads?"
Since spring, GM has been mulling a replacement for "Chevy Runs Deep," which was adopted in 2010 under former marketing chief Joel Ewanick. It has been criticized for failing to strengthen Chevrolet's identity and for lacking a clear translation in some languages, which limited its use in many overseas markets.
GM wanted to adopt the new global marketing strategy in time for the launch of about 20 new or significantly refreshed models this year, including 13 U.S. debuts, Batey said.
Batey's baby
Batey led the effort to develop the "Find New Roads" theme along with Chevy's creative ad agency, Commonwealth, which was formed last spring as a joint venture of Omnicom Group and Interpublic Group of Cos. The theme was well received in consumer testing in key global markets, Batey said.
Because GM intends for the tag line to be an internal vision for the brand, it got unusually close scrutiny, even receiving the blessing of GM's 16-member executive committee, Batey said.
In a statement, GM global product chief Mary Barra said: "'Find New Roads' embraces the spirit of ingenuity that has been in Chevrolet's DNA since the beginning, and it will continue to guide every aspect of our business moving forward. This is the first time we have aligned behind one global vision."
GM CEO Dan Akerson told The Wall Street Journal that the tag line "offers a challenge to people, which will give the tag line longer legs." He said: "It will also mean different things to different people because the car represents different things to different people."
The Journal reported the story earlier today. For Chevy's YouTube channel showing many of the Chevy Runs Deep television ads, click here.

Forget LBJ: The Texas Tornado Delivers In The Clutch
Posted on: June 13, 2011 | Comments (0) | MotoGP, Red Bull Indianapolis GP |
The information lines of the sports world are taut today with criticism of LeBron James after the heavily favored Miami Heat lost to the Dallas Mavericks in six games in the NBA Finals. LeChoke was a common name used for James after he disappeared in the fourth quarter of games in the Finals just 11 months after "taking his talents" to South Beach in "The Decision" show on ESPN, one of the worst PR decisions ever made by an American athlete.
LBJ compounded the ire from fans by saying after the game that he didn't care about fan criticism of his lackluster play in the Finals. Really? Didn't LeBron say he was following all of the fan criticism last summer after his decision to leave Cleveland for Miami and an unlimited number of titles? Then LeBron all but inferred people were jealous of him because he was a superstar and they had to return to their sad, pathetic lives today after the Finals ended.
Enough of that megalomaniacal clown King James and his tarnished crown. Instead save the royal treatment for an American athlete who flat-out delivered Sunday in a way that few could have imagined just a week ago.
American MotoGP rider Colin Edwards finished third Sunday in the Grand Prix of Great Britain. It was the 12th podium finish of his nine-season MotoGP career, which isn't a world-beating stat at first glance. But when you consider that Edwards beat MotoGP World Champions Valentino Rossi and Jorge Lorenzo and 10 other of the world's best riders Sunday, just eight days after having a titanium plate screwed into his shattered collarbone, that's the stuff of legends.
Read that again. That's right: Colin Edwards finished third in arguably the most physical form of major circuit-based motorsports in the world — hanging on to a two-wheeled, angry bucking bronco for 45 minutes — just nine days after breaking his collarbone in five places in a crash during practice at the Catalunya Grand Prix at Barcelona, Spain.
Incredible. A supreme display of what SPEED Formula One analyst David Hobbs like to call "large attachments." Some serious courage, to be proper.
And "The Texas Tornado" delivered when his Monster Yamaha Tech 3 team needed it. His teammate, Cal Crutchlow, also suffered a broken collarbone in a crash this weekend at Silverstone in his home race, leaving Tech 3 with just Edwards on the grid.
Then Yamaha Factory Racing riders Jorge Lorenzo and Ben Spies crashed a lap apart during the rain-soaked race. Guess who was the only Yamaha rider left in the race to score vital Manufacturers' points? A 37-year-old "old dude" with a shattered collarbone held together with hardware, having the ride of his life.
When it came time to flourish, a healthy LeBron James choked and caved in mentally when his team needed him the most on the sunny shores of South Beach. When his team and manufacturer were down, a wounded Colin Edwards carried them to unexpected glory in a cold, English rain at Silverstone.
One of those guys is returning to his mansion with a private chef and a garage full of Maybachs and Ferraris. Another is heading home to Houston to see his wife, three kids and prepare for another round of happy riders at the Texas Tornado Boot Camp this weekend.
I think we all know who the true superstar is.

Blues for the RedBoy Presents: The Integrated-Ass Crowd Mix!
Yeah, yeah, yeah. I know. I'm late. But if I wasn't late, I wouldn't be me, then where would I be!? Don't answer that. Instead, know that I've been hip deep in lawyers and real-estate agents as of late and just as the deal was about to crystallize on a 250 year old mansion in Spanktown, it fell through – as in' Through the back corner of the foundation and into the basement where it put a ten foot crack in the cast-iron septic line. Oh well, nothin' cures a case of the doldrums like some sexually suggestive funk & soul, so please excuse me while I whip this out…
You will find scant words in this mix, which is fine by me as I have my own problems to worry about without having to listen to people bitch about the trials of life decades removed. Take Concerto in F by the Willie and the Might Magnificent for example. No bullshit here, just a "Funky Beat" that's "In My Soul" backed by a track so thick that one might break their face walking into it unknowingly. It's also somewhat of a mystery track as this comp will eventually divulge, as it appears on various labels, by various bands, and w/ various names. Can't say for sure who's hand is in it, sufficed to say that it's in elbow deep.
If I were hard pressed to pick a follow-up to 'Willie', I could do a lot worse than the Dapps, 'Bringin' Up the Guitar' on King records. Perhaps best known for their King collaboration with Hank 'The Twist' Ballard, the Dapps prove that they can headline their own discs in spades and that sometimes it pays to feed a guitarists ego (Dangerous as that might be). Seriously though, all those minor melodies get major props from me.
I've got a soft spot for this third track. First, the Nike label calls to mind the Nike missile defense system, who's abandon silos scattered about NJ I have had the distinct pleasure of being drunk in at one time or another. I might have even spray painted a pentagram or two (Who can say?). Second, 'Boogaloo Tramp' and it's flip are evenly matched in that they are practically the same goddamned song w/ different lyrics (Not that Boogaloo Tramp really has lyrics). It's like my grandma always says, "When in doubt, go w/ the Boogaloo."
Since I already broke the dam w/ a King records release, I might as well buttress a James Brown reference w/ a cool cover of the Godfather's 'Hold It' on the N-Joy label. I've been meanin to post this track by its lonesome for some time, but not unlike a plate of eggs o'er hash browns, the beauty is in mashin' it up and thrown a handful o pepper on it.
Speakin of mash up, it just occurred to me that this next cut, 'Sock It To Me pt 2' is also a James Brown ovure. I've always liked the flip better than the requisite pt 1. My only gripe is the band's name. I mean, the Deacons!? What a stupid name (wink).
I know this next track as 'Turbo Rock' by the Turbos on Turbo Records (Clever, huh?), so you can imagine my surprise when I heard it under the name 'Backlash', listed as being by one George Kerr and pressed on 'All Platinum', a label which is responsible for the dome-piece of this-here head case mix, Soulin' w/ the Whatnauts!
If this track sounds a lot like the dub b-side of 'Concerto in F' by Willie & the Mighty Magnificents, that because it is! Released on the 'Stang' label 'Soulin', like 'Turbo Rock' seems to have followed several soul labels around as a canned b-side. Be it by the Mighty Magnificents or the Whatnauts, it's perfect for sealin' the deal on this here mix.
Until next time, remember: the honey is for the eater, the aloe is for the peter and the chicken-fat make it finger lickin' good!

(NEW YORK) -- The video-sharing platform Vimeo has announced the launch of Vimeo on Demand, a new service that will allow video creators to charge viewers for their original content.
With Vimeo On Demand, video creators (they have to be Vimeo PRO members) can begin charging for their work and earn a 90 percent share of the revenue, minus transaction costs. The service builds on another recently released Vimeo feature called "Tip Jar," which allowed viewers to virtually tip video makers for content they enjoyed.
Vimeo on Demand puts content creators in the driver's seat, allowing them to set pricing, geographic availability, page design and more for their original work.
For buyers, videos can be accessed through any of Vimeo's current platforms: desktop, mobile, connected TV devices like Roku and Apple TV, and smart TV platforms that offer Vimeo's channel.
"What used to be a confusing and labor-intensive process is now open and simple with Vimeo on Demand," Blake Whitman, Vice President of Creative Development said in a statement. "We always strive to provide our community and visitors with the best experience possible, and this opens up a new world of viewable content and support for creators."
Vimeo kicked off its On Demand service Tuesday with a screening of It's Such a Beautiful Day at the SXSW Interactive + Film Festival in Austin, Texas. Creator Don Hertzfeldt will make the film available as a $2 rental or $6 sale through Vimeo on Demand.

This is my formal notification that I am resigning from the Black Death Sea Company. As you may have noticed, I did not come back after docking at the last port. I had One-Eyed Syd deliver this letter to you in fear of being whipped, made to walk the plank, or flayed alive. Please do not take offense to this and track me down with cold black vengeance in your heart. Don't worry, for I have already pre-kidnapped a young lad to take my place. He's a strong one, as I learned trying to shove him in a large empty rum barrel. I think he'll do just fine.
Dear Captain Bloodbeard,
While I have been very satisfied voyaging on the Dragon's Revenge, I have decided to make this move to settle down and start my own family of sea dogs. The memories I have made, or was too drunk to remember, cannot be replaced by all the rubies and doubloons in all the world. I will never forget the throat cutting contests with Sammy Pegleg. Or the first time I kissed a bar wench without her permission. And let's not forget the time we blew up that whale with a cannon. That was definitely worth the smell and the mess.
But as I am now reaching old age at almost 30. I feel I should do something a little more constructive with my last five to ten years. Not to mention my teeth are just about rotted out. I've had scurvy more than a dozen times. And I've lost more body parts than I care to count. It's time old friend, that I step down.
Hopefully your boiling rage at my desertion will subside someday. I would rather enjoy sharing old tales over a mug of ale like we used to. Again, I appreciate the opportunities I have been given here, and wish you much success in the future.
YARRRRRRR Favorite Buccaneer,
Gunpowder Gerry

6 Meetup Groups match "Japanese Anime" near Alexandria, VA
Welcome to the Richmond/Henrico Anime Club. We are a non-profit organization dedicated to increasing the awareness of anime, or Japanese animation, in the Richmond/Henrico community.
This group is for anyone who has a passion for the Japanese Culture as a whole, this includes their way of life, music, anime, manga, food, etc. I'm starting this group to meet new friends that has the same passion as myself and help me learn new things along with just having a good time. I look forward to meeting new people.
Open to everyone interested in Japanese language and culture, including native Japanese and non-natives. Share knowledge, resources, events and make connections. Since this is NOT a free site, everyone is expected to contribute $1 per meet-up to pay for the service.
This group is for people that want to find more friends to attend anime and scifi related conventions with. We all know that going to a convention by yourself takes away some of the fun in the convention. Here people can arrange groups for conventions or other activities around the mid-Atlantic region.
Hello, I created this meetup to get together groups of people to watch anime series and movies while playing great board games. People can also bring their Xboxes, Wii's, and other consoles to play as well. There will be movie nights to go out and see new releases of Miyazaki film or any other Anime movies, (or any movie that fits our fancy) and just have a good time to meet new people that enjoy the same interests. I hope to see you all at the meetups!
This is a Meetup extension of the Cosplay usa Blog www.cosplayusa.net and E-Zine launching this summer 2013, as well as the etsy shop www.etsy.com/shop/CosplayUSA .

This is a woodblock I'm working on for my last project (which is christmas themed) and a christmas card. It's a little creepy but that's my drawing style I guess! by aliaandriver.

Holiday Traditions
I love holidays and the traditions that come with the festivities. I would be lying if I said I didn't get into the Christmas music and lights and the merriness of everything and everyone during this time of year. I'd also be lying if I said that as soon as it's over I'm not dreading the next few months of brown slushy snow, cold, and overall dreariness of the months to come. Can't we just skip from January 1 to April 1? Or better yet, only have three months of beautiful, white pretty snow? I love to do outdoor winter sports (XX SKIING!!!!) but am done with it after a few months of bifs and shirt fulls of snow.
I never really got into "traditions" before living on my own. Our family always does the best Christmas day – egg strada for breakfast, open presents, go for a walk, head to grandma's. I love it, and I guess in its own way it is a tradition. But this year, I put together my 25 Days of Christmas list – things that I am excited to try with my husband and friends. What other suggestions do you have for holiday to-do lists?
- 1. Create a cookie exchange
- 2. Drive around with hot chocolate (in a sealed mug, of course) and look at Christmas lights
- 3. Pick a few names off the tree at the mall and buy some exciting gifts for those in need
- 4. Attend a holiday parade
- 5. Watch my favorite Christmas movies (Hello, A Christmas Story and Elf) while drinking spiked hot chocolate in my jammies
- 6. Host a Christmas Round Robin
- 7. Create some pretty rockin' DIY gifts for family and friends
- 8. Window Shop
- 9. Attend the Nutcracker in the Castle live display at the Paine Art Center and Gardens in Oshkosh, WI
- 10. Create an Advent calendar
- 11. Decorate a gingerbread house
- 12. Create a recordable Christmas book for a new lil baby in our lives (Yay Carter!!)
- 13. Travel home and see family + friends
- 14. Make homemade apple cider in the crock pot
- 15. Hang lights outside on our patio
- 16. Go to a live nativity scene
- 17. Have a campfire with family in Wausau
- 18. Help serve food at a shelter
- 19. Open and give special gifts
- 20. Picnic dinner by Christmas tree
- 21. Go ice skating
- 22. Create Christmas cards
- 23. Make homemade ornaments for family
- 24. Make a homemade wreath
- 25. Watch A Charlie Brown Christmas
What do you do for the holidays?

Alex I spent a fair chunk of my legal career advising young businesses and understand the frustrations and challenges of a start up enterprise. I also have a reasonable grasp of how a business is built on sound products rather than advertising hype. Let me give you an example.
My local sells 6 yr old 86 proof Barton for about ten dollars a bottle, plus they give me both a senior and military discount. So I can get four bottles of a sound, proven product for the price of one bottle of yours. Why should I do that? Is yours worth four times as much? What sets your product (I say yours, you didn't make it, but you bought it so it is yours) apart other than the 'special ' water used to cut it. You may as well say you sprinkle it with pixie dust for all that tells me about the product.
If the difference is only water with a catchy name then what you're really selling is the idea I should be thrilled to own something elite and that distinction is shared by only 822 other people.

COLUMBUS, Ohio, March 20, 2013 /PRNewswire/ -- Elmer's® Products, Inc., an industry leader in office, educational, craft and hardware adhesives and bonding materials, is pleased to introduce Elmer's® ProBond Advanced™-the only multi-purpose adhesive on the market that delivers professional strength and versatility without the foamy mess that polyurethane glues leave behind.
To view the multimedia assets associated with this release, please click http://www.prnewswire.com/news-releases/elmers-introduces-first-heavy-duty-acrylic-adhesive-that-wont-foam-up-199068521.html
ProBond Advanced works on nearly any substrate – wood, concrete, metal, glass, ceramics and more. It is 100 percent weatherproof, making it ideal for both interior and exterior projects. Unlike popular polyurethane glues, ProBond Advanced won't foam up after it's dry, thanks to its acrylic formulation. This saves DIYers, contractors and woodworkers the time and hassle of cleaning up their projects and hands after working.
"We developed ProBond Advanced in response to demand from consumers," said Emily von Stein, associate product manager for Elmer's hardware category. "They've told us that they don't like the messy foam of polyurethane glues, but still need an adhesive that can provide heavy-duty adhesion on nearly any surface. ProBond Advanced satisfies that need and goes a step beyond by not only eliminating the annoying foam mess, but also being easy enough to clean with just water."
ProBond Advanced is nontoxic and washable when wet. It dries translucent, won't stain hands and has a longer shelf life than the standard polyurethane adhesive. With a 100 percent performance guarantee, consumers can get a refund of the purchase price if they are not satisfied with its results.
Tests against the leading polyurethane glue show that ProBond Advanced offers greater lap shear strength-the strength demonstrated by the diagonal pull of two substrates until adhesive failure-on a variety of applications, including steel to wood, stainless steel to wood, aluminum to wood, acrylic to acrylic, acrylic to wood, ABS to ABS and ABS to wood. Strength tests are based on laboratory testing done October 4, 2011, on the eight most common dual-surface applications. Elmer's® Carpenter's® Wood Glue MAX® is still the recommended adhesive for wood-to-wood applications.
ProBond Advanced is now available at The Home Depot, Dollar General, Ace Hardware, Do it Best, True Value, Orgill, Michaels, Jo-Ann Fabric and Craft stores and select independent hardware retailers.
Elmer's ProBond Advanced is available in two-, four- and eight-ounce bottles for $4.99, $6.50 and $10.99, respectively.

Estate to be renamed
Published at 15:43, Monday, 23 April 2012
BECKERMET Industrial Estate in Haile, Egremont, is set to be renamed The Energy Coast Business Park.
Members of Copeland Council's planning panel are expected to agree the change at a meeting on Wednesday.
The developer has taken the decision "because it is located on Britain's Energy Coast and a lot of businesses on the site deal with and are major suppliers to Sellafield."

not so much...
SDA-SRS2 maybe?
all the best,
You are correct.
Gee...that was easy. Hehe.

How would you rate these speakers?
Is this a three way system or is the 15" a passive radiator?
I have someone who wants to trade these for a pair of Infinity Kappa 8's that I have listed on CL. I don't think it is an even trade myself.
I'm certain they will sound better not being toed in. I wouldn't have a problem paying 500 for them.
Last edited by michaeljhsda2; 02-25-2013 at 10:35 AM.
Passive radiator. I would value SDA SRS2s at about $500. Make sure they come with the interconnect cable. If you end up getting them, do not set them up as shown in the attached photo. Completely wrong! No toe in!

Description Come to Vanier Park to celebrate the launch of Bard alumni C. C. Humphreys' latest novel, 'Shakespeare's Rebel' – a rollicking tale of the Globe Theatre's fight choreographer, John Lawley, and his adventures in London 1600 AD - a city on the brink of revolution and a theatre putting on a play that will change literature forever: the Tragedy of Hamlet.
Bard on the Beach, together with Academie Duello, Canada's premier medieval martial arts school – and C. C. Humphreys, bestselling author of 'Vlad' and 'Jack Absolute' - will put on a swashbuckling night of swords and words.
Some of Canada's finest swordsmen will perform fights from the novel and Shakespeare's plays. Fight choreographers - including Duello's own David McCormick – will both display and analyse the creation of the fights that have thrilled audiences for centuries. Devon Boorman, Maestro of Academie Duello, will conduct a 'Prize Fight', just as the Elizabethan Maisters of Defence would have done. There will be discussions of the extraordinary times and how they are reflected in the plays Bard is presenting this summer: Hamlet, and Elizabeth Rex, which concerns both the Queen and the mad Earl of Essex, two central characters in the novel. Bard Artistic Director Christopher Gaze and Humphreys will both read extracts and talk about how Humphreys has brought together two of his greatest passions – Hamlet and bladed weaponry – to shape what could be his most exciting adventure to date.
So come for swords, for words – and an evening that looks at all things Shakespearean from an especially sharp angle!Cos & Effect

Pas Kaart van West Indien Behelsende soo deszelffs Vaste Kusten als d'onder Behoorende Eylanden aan de Noord Oceaan ... - Van Keulen Johannes , 1697-1709.
Sea chart of the western Atlantic Ocean and the American continent, oriented to the west.
Covers the entire eastern US seaboard as well as the Caribbean and Gulf of Mexico.
Second state with engraved number 1.
Cartographer: C. J. Vooght
Date: 1697-1709
Copper engraving
Size: 50.5 x 57cm (19.7 x 22.2 inches)
Verso: Blank
Condition: Old coloured, some worm damage (2 x 2 cm) repaired at lower centrefold.
Condition Rating: B
References: Burden, 583, State 2; Koeman, Keu (116)*
From: De Nieuwe Groote Lichtende Zee-Fakkel, ... Amsterdam, J. van Keulen, 1697-1709.
"In 1684 Johannes van Keulen published the fourth volume of the Zee-Fakkel (Sea Torch). This covered the waters of the east coast of the continent of America as far south as the Amazon River, a similar coverage to the earlier Arent Roggeveen atlas, 1675. De Zee-Fakkel was van Keulen's pilot guide which contrary to his Zee-Atlas includes descriptive text. The first chart in this work is this general one of the Atlantic approaches to the continent. It was drawn by the mathematician Claas Janz. Vooght. The majority of the cartography is derived from his earlier 1680 chart of the West Indies, here extended to the north to take in Labrador, and rotated to place the west at the top. The only disparities are the naming of CAROLINA and Charles Touwne and a slightly larger Albemarle Sound. Dutch claims in the north-east are still identified, here as far north as present day Maine. No mention is made of New York or New-England, although some of latter's coastal town are identified such as New London, Providence, Pleymouth, Baston, Salem and Dover. French Canada is shown with all the usual nomenclature. The whole is finished with an ornate title cartouche depicting scenes relating to the production of sugar cane." (Burden)
