I discovered Fancy Fine on a fateful day in autumn... the leaves were bustling outside my window as a chilly fall breeze rustled the trees... and a small gasp escaped my lips as I opened an imagine of Ms.Ashley in the most perfect vintage frock and fascinator! I was in blog-love. ^_^
A little gasp also escaped my lips when I saw the beautiful "Aimee camel wool coat" on Bohemian Bisoux Vintage. Delightful! Thank-you for the great giveaway opportunity!

1. I found your blog years ago through Liebemarlene! I have always been a fan of vintage clothes but I had a period in my life when I was tierd in reading blogs so i stoped. A couple of months ago i looked at a map of pictures in my computer and i found a photo of a cute girl with brown hair wearing a nice dress, I did'nt know who the girl was or where i've got the photo but the photo was named "FancyFine" and I googled it and found you, once again.
2. From the Bohemian Bisoux Vintage i would like the white 50's cocktail dress. It would be perfekt for when I graduate from my school in june (In Sweden the girls always wear white dresses on their graduation day, and white sailor caps!! it's gonna be awesome!)

"They are talking Bollocks"
"I lost my virginity to a monk! "
Believed to be ancestors of the old Witch Doctors, Fortune Tellers and Emperor's whom possess a close relationship with a higher deity, monks arose around the time Genghis Khan was playing Battleships with the whole Western Europe. Like Priests, Monks were selected eunuchs whom usually stayed in the village to protect the women and children while the real men went out foraging or working.
The brown dresses they wear today came from a ritual performed after the warriors returned from battle. With plenty of sh-rooms and pot, the burly men pretty much did what they pleased to the defenceless women and children. After they'd had their way with as many as they could catch, their attention (what little was left after the drugs took over) turned to the town eunuch and the camp fire. They'd always bring a variety of loot from their raiding and pillaging, in amongst which were usually a few female garments, which they were too proud to wear in front of their women, so they'd forcibly dress the eunuch and make him dance and sing around the fire. He'd also most usually be gang raped, and enjoy it.
The Beginning[edit]
It's difficult to ascertain exactly when Monks began practising, but easy to fathom from whence they came.
When the creatures kept falling out of trees because of intruding T-Rexes, they decided to stop slouching around and started standing tall. After many interbreeding experiments, the Gorilla won the Battle of the Fittest, and so mated with every other species available to be mated with. Hard. With so many walking Apes on the land, groups of similar-looking, similar-acting, and similar-smelling species began to form.
After thousands or millions of years of inbreeding of these groups, the offspring started displaying peculiar traits their forefathers and mothers did not possess. For example: an eight-handed midget, a blue-eyed giant, a female with snakes as hair, which beckons the question "What the hell was mum doing with those pet snakes?"
Each minor difference was seen as a curse and usually these unique and rare specimens were slaughtered, fried and eaten at a special family BBQ, others were abandoned, some sent floating in a basket down a river, and others just expelled from their family's camp.
Those that were allowed to stay in their group, where they grew up tormented, ridiculed, and generally made fun of due to their outstanding defects, or traits, developed skills which most of the group feared or worshipped. Some even possessed magical traits, like predicting the future, pulling bunnies out of unsuspecting bums, mind reading, and weather manipulation.
Exactly Right After The Beginning[edit]
One such subhuman, as word of mouth tells us, was the first of many defected offspring to overthrow the corrupt leader of its group. As the story goes, Conan, was raised in a small cave in the hills of Antwerp, hidden from the rest of the group to avoid his sacrifice. There, on an icy reflective wall, he gazed at his skinny, sick, pale body day-in and day-out. He began moving rocks from the back of the cave to the foot of the hill using his bare hands, trying to build a wall to secure his privacy. Over many moons his body reacted to the lifting and carrying until he resembled the Bridgestone Tyre dude, and was able to lift thrice his body weight with just his flaccid penis. He enjoyed watching his newly formed muscles stretch and grow on his body, so much so that he decided to show the village girls his outstanding manhood.
The group leader, a jealous, horny, and extremely bossy guy ordered his witless guards to capture this pale creature before he could mate any of his beautiful harem girls. The soldiers came upon the huge wall Conan had built and could not get past.
"Come out, come out, wherever you are!" They yelled over the wall.
After a few moons, the soldiers decided to tempt him out by capturing his parents. Conan knew they wanted to kill him, so stayed concealed in his cave until the night he heard a piercing scream. It was his mother, and she was being brutally raped by the bored soldiers. Conan could not stand anybody else fucking his mum, and killed every soldier that was there, using sticks, stones and his bare hands. But he was too late, his parents had already been murdered.
This led Conan, in a fit of rage, to the leader's lair. A giant snake protected the weak leader, but was no match for Conan's strength and determination. He stuffed the dead leader's body up the snake's small anus, and told the villagers they would follow if he wasn't elected as their new leader.
Embarrassingly Close To The Beginning[edit]
All across the globe, similar events were taking place. A two-headed freak took over the Chinese Empire, a female with male genitals named Cleopatra overthrew the Egyptian realm, a human-eating midget became the new King of the Incas, and a man with ears as big as wings that could hear conversations on the other side of the globe took the rein in England. And, with their power, they ordered all defected humans to be treated with respect and stop being killed.
Thus begins the journey of our modern-day Monks, subhuman specimens with hidden powers, sometimes called Gods or Thor or Emperors because they are able to undermine the mob with their ambiguous prophecies, coincidental assumptions, and their supposed covenant with an almighty deity.
Nice And Easy Wins The Race[edit]
With a massive inferiority complex, a greedy disposition, and a determination to reek revenge upon all those that teased, mocked and laughed at them, Monks all around the globe took a right-hand seat next to their society's leader. Being in the spotlight, as were their predecessors; the Witch Doctors, didn't bode well for these people. They preferred to sit patiently beside a charismatic leader, advising, counselling, and conniving to overthrow him/her if they didn't do what they were told. Called Puppet-masters, they convinced the world they were doing good through the actions of the kings, but in reality were just hell-bent on dominating the world to show those tough-ass warriors that the brain was indeed mightier than the sword.
Their illusion was almost destroyed when a young carpenter named Jesus showed the world their corrupt ways, but the ingenious monks, called Rabbi's by that time, devised a plan to fool the world yet again. They contracted 12 fairly ordinary men to follow Jesus' every move, and asked them to write a story about him. Obviously, the leading Rabbis heavily edited what they had written so they could continue their business of fooling the mob. It wasn't until 300BC that they finally agreed on a name for the new writings: Bible. Derived from the Latin word Bib, which means manure, fake, and crap (depending on its context), and the Hebrew term Le, which literally translates to Law. This 'fake law' was as powerful as manure in growing the 'faith' of the people, and in so doing created an untapped goldmine for them to grow their power.
When these nerdy monks were able to cross the seas, by using able-bodied drones to build their ships and transport equipment, they decided to spread their crap to every corner of the Earth. Any other Monk, with or without powers, who commanded a village or city, was killed in the name of the newly invented God, if they didn't buy into the deal. This was the early pioneering methods McDonald's used 1500 years later.
Another Insufferable Century[edit]
For hundreds and thousands of years, the only men allowed to wear dresses, except for the barbarian Scots, the newly formed groups of Monks became known as the 'brethren', "brotherhood", "priests" and "yogis", depending on their location. With their enormous wealth they not only created majestic shrines for worship, but also built fortified Monkasteries (now called Monasteries so as to sound less monkey-like), with complicated subterranean passageways used to kidnap unsuspecting little boys for their weekly group orgies, transport tonnes of gold, and to fabricate 'miracles' for the enjoyment of the masses.

New York: Sake and Shochu at Akariba in Williamsburg
First came Zenkichi. Hidden behind a stretch of unmarked wood siding, the five year-old Japanese restaurant unfolds in tendrils of private booths and curtained corners. It's Williamsburg's most romantic room and is home to New York's finest $55 omakase; the atmosphere is intimate and the menu hosts all sorts of elegant magic. Now there's Akariba: Zenkichi's hushed, splendid bar area dedicated to oysters, sake, and the art of the shochu cocktail.
Back here, you're not on Zenkichi's patio but in its lantern-lit garden shed, one that's all dressed up for the occasion. A towering sycamore anchors the 40-seat space, growing up from the floor and branching out through the rafters. In the spring it will make great shade for the couples tucked into the banquette as they pick over fat, buttery Kumamoto oysters ($3.25 each) and listen to Billie Holiday.
Akariba's ostensible draw is its sake list, which is indeed one of the most comprehensive in the city. It's smartly curated to serve drinkers at every level of sake saavy, from the nervous—try the Dewa Sansan Junmai Ginjo ($13/$64), a bright, tangy brew reminiscent of white wine—to the adventurous. When I ask where I should start if I want to broaden my horizons, the bartender smiles and flips my menu to the "Aged Sake" section, tapping a finger on the Tenran-zan ($8.50). Served in a rocks glass over a giant, hand-carved ice sphere, the golden-brown liquid resembles scotch and smells of pepper; drink it and you'll find out what ancient fruit tastes like.
Somehow just as exciting as the sake selection, though, is the cocktail menu. It's as brief as the other is long, containing just four drinks based on shochu—a native Japanese spirit distilled from rice (not brewed, like sake) with a clean, vodka-like character. Need proof that Akariba's mixed drinks aren't afterthoughts? It's all in the Bee's Devotion ($10), a pale yellow stir of shochu, yuzu juice, wildflower honey, and yuzu peel. It looks like sunshine and fires off notes of tangerine and fresh honeysuckle. This is the drink that could get us all through to May.
Less successful is the Loyal Willow ($10), a leaden blend of shochu, pureed lychee fruit and lavender syrup. The Tokyo Azure ($8) picks up the slack, though, and showcases blue curacao—no kidding—in a non-cloying way. The highball starts with the liqueur as a base, with layers of shochu, grapefruit juice, and lychee syrup floated atop it. The overall effect is electric and somewhat tropical; it glows in the glass and goes down like fruit punch. Somewhere in the world, this drink has a karaoke bar cousin.
In addition to a handful of Zenkichi-made snacks, the bar menu offers a thicket of oysters best paired with sake—Fanny Bay ($2.25), Godzilla ($6.25), Hama Hama ($2.50 each), to name a few—but if you've opted for cocktails, there's another pairing choice you shouldn't overlook: dessert. The Frozen Black Sesame Mousse ($6.95) casts deep, dark chocolate shadows over a base of toasted sesame; the Mineoka Milk Tofu is a palate-cleansing pot de creme, topped with strawberries, white chocolate, and a mash of Adzuki red bean. Each dish offers a lesson in subtle, sweet-turned-savory complexity.
There will be plenty of people who will land at Akariba solely because they're awaiting a table next door. It's a fair move, but this sweet, secret backdoor spot deserves at least one visit when you plan to stay put.

Crisis of Faith: The Struggle to Believe in 'Preacher'
If Preacher's longtime fans were to take a fresh look at its nine uneven volumes today, would nostalgia keep them from noticing its flaws, or would they banish it to the realm of other crude, corny, ostensibly shocking '90s relics like South Park, Attitude-era WWF shows and Kevin Smith movies?
The word "fuck" appears 1,758 times in Garth Ennis and Steve Dillon's Preacher. Some of the more creative variations include fuggin', thuck (when the speaker's face has been removed), huck (when the speaker's teeth have been kicked out), fooking (when the speaker is Irish), fuh-fuh-fuh (when the speaker is paralyzed), a "fu" followed next panel by a "ck" (when the speaker watches someone get shot mid-word), plus a huggk (when the speaker is gagged), and even a drawn-out version that takes up an entire three-panel page; the letter u appears 48 times in that one (the speaker is falling off a cliff).
Jesse Custer the eponymous clergyman says "fuck" a lot. So does his girlfriend, Tulip, a little girl raised by her daddy to love guns, until Daddy gets shot during a hunting accident and Tulip learns to hate guns… until she becomes a hitwoman. Jesse's pal Cassidy says "fuck" more than any other character in the series, and indeed my favorite use of the word is probably this inspired declaration by Cassidy, not just Jesse's friend but also an Irish vampire: "Oh fuck. It's God."
In a special issue dedicated to Cassidy (collected in the Dixie Fried graphic novel), "fuck" appears 56 times; at least once per page until page eight, which features no dialogue at all.
Even the angels of Heaven say "fuck" in Preacher, a popular but controversial late '90s comic book series which includes 66 issues plus a half-dozen "specials" (non-continuity tales), all collected in nine graphic novel paperbacks with striking painted covers by Glenn Fabry. The plot of the long, engaging, uneven series concerns Jesse Custer's quest for God. Specifically, Custer has a superpower of sorts called "The Word", which gives his every command the absolute authority of God's word; if Jesse Custer told you to put a gun to your head and pull the trigger, you would not hesitate to obey. (His eyes helpfully turn an angry red whenever he uses his power.)
Jesse's gift quickly leads him to discover that God has vacated his throne, and so Jesse and his two unlikely companions set off to find Him. As Cassidy puts it, "You're lookin' for God—I mean literally, not some soul-searchin' bullshit."
Spawn creator Todd McFarlane once said that a hero is only as good as his villain, and so by making Spawn fight the devil (or a devil, at least), McFarlane was trying to subtly imply that his creation was superior to all other superheroes. Clearly, Preacher creators Garth Ennis and Steve Dillon know something Todd McFarlane doesn't know: if you wish to create an imposing, insurmountable David-and-Goliath scenario for your hero, then God, not Satan, is the greatest villain of all.
Here, then, are some of the many things Preacher has to say about God:
Tulip, who freely admits "I think He's a piece of shit," asks Jesse, "What will you do when you get the Almighty by the balls?" Custer—who refers to God at one point as "the good fuckin' Lord" and later demands, "Where is He?! Where the fuck is God?!" and boasts, "God don't stand a fuckin' chance"—offers a succinct reply: "Squeeze."
An angel protests Jesse's callous blasphemy by insisting, "But he is the Lord of Hosts!" Jesse answers, "Yeah, an' he can wait his goddamn turn."
God Himself offers a privileged, oblivious protest of His own: "But it's my creation…!" In response, the longsuffering Saint of Killers—a brutal murderer in the Old West, manipulated by God into replacing the Angel of Death as "the patron saint of slaughter and assassination"—says, "It's outgrown you."
Not to be outdone, Cassidy cheerfully offers the following: "Having met the Good Lord face to face, I think I can honestly say he's a bit of a prick." He also asks a fellow bloodsucker, "What're yeh scared've crosses for, 'cause some bollicks got nailed to one a couple've thousand years ago?"
Cassidy eventually admits, "I still can't get me head round it. Findin' God, punishin' God—it's too big. Too abstract." Jesse Custer is dismissive: "Only if you allow it to be. He did wrong. He fucked people up. He has to be made to face it. You look at it that way, He's just another son of a bitch." (The dialogue and captions in comic books are written in all caps; I do not know whether Jesse Custer—or Garth Ennis—would approve of my proper-noun status for "He".)
Meanwhile, and perhaps most resonantly, the Saint of Killers marvels aloud, "Why can a man not turn to doing good without the Lord getting all mixed up in it?"
Preacher's boldest statement about God might be a panel with no dialogue or narration at all: God is shot dead. This is of course presented as a happy ending.
Filmmaker Kevin Smith, in his introduction to Preacher's second volume, Until the End of the World, writes, "As a man who has an unflappable, fervent, and devout faith in God… I know—in my heart and soul—the Lord to be mighty, just, loving, and righteous… and a huge fan of Preacher."
Smith wrote the above fairly early in Preacher's run. It would be interesting to see whether he still feels this way, especially in light of Jesse Custer's mission statement: "God has to go… He deserves it for the things He's done, but more than that the world just plain needs to be rid of Him."
(To give you a sense of how much pop cultural time has elapsed since Smith's misguided but well-intended comments about God's favorable stance on Preacher, his post-intro bio mentions the imminent release of Chasing Amy, then continues, "His next assignment is putting words in the mouth of Clark Kent and his Kryptonian alter ego in the new Superman movie from Warner Bros.")
Really, though, for all its "We're gonna get you, God!" swagger, Preacher doesn't seem to have a lot of time to bother with the Almighty. Consider: the first line in the first issue of Preacher is, "This where you're gonna start lookin' for Him, Jesse?" And the final word from that debut issue is "Bang". Really, that about sums up God's role in Preacher. God serves the same function in Preacher that Montana serves in Lonesome Dove; He is a destination for our heroes to aim for so that they can change throughout their journey—or not change, in the case of the characters in Preacher, as I'll discuss later. God is there for our protagonists to rail against and to curse and to threaten, and yet he is never really there in any meaningful way. God is mentioned repeatedly, and He pops up for the occasional cameo appearance, if only to remind the reader that He does indeed exist—at least in the Preacher universe. And He also serves as a convenient deus ex machina a time or three. And then He is shot dead: "Bang."
He's not the only one. The (many) shootouts in Preacher remind me of an old Gary Larson Far Side strip concerning an Old West sheriff admonishing his posse before a gunfight: "If you do get plugged, for gosh sakes don't just slump over and die. Put some drama into it and throw yourself screaming from the edge."
You see, no one in Preacher gets shot without physical drama to spare. You rightly respond, "Surely there should be physical drama when someone is shot," but in the pages of Preacher, most bullets seem to strike the face, with the result that "fuck" hardly appears more often than flaps of skin that used to be noses and gaping, bloody caverns in place of jaws. I was reminded of Oliver Stone's Natural Born Killers, and while I happen to think Natural Born Killers is a brilliant film, it's only a couple hours long; if it was made into, say, a long-running HBO series, then the over-the-top violence would quickly lose whatever impact it has, both as clever commentary and as simple cultural shock-and-awe.
Preacher was published by Vertigo, a popular dumping ground for DC's non-superhero comics, most of which are deemed too controversial to share a publishing logo with Batman and Aquaman and the like. Vertigo was a popular imprint in the '90s, because no matter how fantastic the plots, the characters in a given Vertigo at least speak like real people… or more like real people than Flash or Green Lantern, anyway.
More often than not, Preacher takes this ostensibly realistic approach to dialogue too far; as noted above, even the angels in Heaven drop the F-bomb. To cite another example, when a detective approaches a hysterical, grieving widow and asks, "Is this your husband's scrotum?" one is startled right out of the story, not because the writing is edgy or daring but because the dialogue has become distractingly implausible. That the detective in question is a vicious homophobe who turns out to be a gay connoisseur of S&M might seem to justify his distracted, gruff conduct with the widow—it must be taxing, living with such self-hatred—but in reality it just makes the plot feel as tired as most of the dialogue.

i would have to wonder if the small could lose a bit a also.
All four maps are within standard sizes so downsizing is not an issue. It would of been an isue if I had gone over them though and then I would of had to look at it.

The background, and the outer edge images give me an old time nautical feel, but then there are these really bright colors that are throwing me off. I know you've been playing around with them for CB reasons, but would lowering the opacity still allow them to be different, yet give it the more toned down feel of the rest of the map?
The brightness of the glows is purely for CB reasons. I have had them lowered in previous versions and like you Israel map, they have had to come up for the CB reason. I will download your map and see if I can copy the colours over though and see if that helps at all.

Though there have been rumors that Mazda would not be adding extra Zoom Zoom to its Atenza/Mazda6 sedan, we now have these pictures of what's being called the "Mazda Atenza Mazdaspeed Concept," which is set for a debut at the 2008 Tokyo Auto Salon. Compared to the stock Mazda 6/Atenza, the body kit is sporty but not over dramatic with new skirts, a lower ride height and revised front/rear bumpers.
What's powering this concept is anyone's guess. As is whether or not the vehicle will be made, if it will carry the Mazdaspeed name if it is made and what countries will get the modified version. It's like Ross and Rachel, except we sort of actually care. [AutoBlog]

They are available on the Region 1 version of the Miniseries DVD. Below is a list, as they appear on that DVD.
- Billy Keikeya meets Laura Roslin aboard Colonial Heavy 798; Roslin has just heard that she has terminal breast cancer.
- As Apollo's Viper is about to dock with Galactica, Aaron Doral poses questions to the film crew as to why Vipers and their landings are not automated.
- Boomer and Helo make a difficult landing on Galactica, replete with incomplete CGI. This scene was to separate two of the prominent sex scenes, the first with Gaius Baltar and Number Six, and the second with Boomer and Chief Tyrol. According to David Eick, his "biggest regret" is cutting the scene, as "[w]ithout it, I think we inadvertently created this idea that we were trying to be the show that was going to have lots of sex in it."[1]
- Cally, Socinus and Prosna talk about Valerii's and Tyrol's forbidden relationship.
- (Extended Scene) Billy and Dualla walk out of the unisex head to rejoin Commander Adama and Roslin.
- Adama remotely detonates Galactica's remaining munitions, as a part of the pre-decommissioning ceremonies. (Adama implies that his father was a military man in this scene, though we later learn that his father was a civil liberties lawyer).
- (Alternate Scene) Apollo has the Cylon missile chase him through the Colonial Fleet training range on the Trevor Moon, subsequently destroying the missile.
- Roslin and 798's crew find Apollo's Viper adrift and recover the ship.
- Starbuck and the Mark II Vipers take on three unsuspecting Cylon Raiders.
- Tyrol brings Boxey to the pilot's bunk, telling the child that Galactica is a very lucky ship.
- Roslin and Billy discuss the current situation; Roslin questions Billy's support of her.
- Cally confronts Chief Tyrol regarding his relationship with Valerii prior to boarding Ragnar Station.
Other scenes removed from the Miniseries's final cut, include:
- An alternate opening scene where the Armistice Officer continually visits the station year after year, progressively getting older between title cards, was shot. However, while Michael Rymer believed the scenes worked, they were too long for the Miniseries ran over an hour longer than originally intened.[2]
- The Battlestar Galactica: The Official Companion makes mention of another scene featuring the death of Socinus, who would later become a recurring character. However, details regarding this scene are not provided.
Season One
- Thrace asks Apollo if they've passed jump 200 yet, saying it's a nice, round number.
- Starbuck tells Apollo she wants a transfer.
- Roslin receives a gift from the people of Aerelon, the photo of the soldier on his knees in front of the burning Aerelon capital titled "Lest We Forget".
- Roslin tells Adama that the captain of the Tauranian Traveller wants to break away from the Fleet, and Adama takes steps to prevent it.
- Apollo tells his pilots how proud he is of them.
- An entire subplot was cut involving Boxey spread out over several scenes. First, the opening scene where Boomer is confused about where she is and what she is doing is extended with Boomer finding a towel in her bag and using it to wipe her dirty hands. Next, Boomer returns to her room after replacing the detonator and encounters Boxey, who picks the lock on her locker and goes through her duffle bag, taking the aforementioned towel. The next deleted scene is another extension during Tyrol's investigation of the sabotaged water tank in which he touches a piece of metal and gets dirt on his gloves of the same type Boomer wipes off at the beginning of the episode. In the next scene, Boxey accompanies Tyrol to see Boomer after she discovers water and waits outside while they talk, attempting to sell Crashdown some ambrosia he swiped from the engine room. Finally, after Boomer and Tyrol finish talking Tyrol notices Boxey is holding the towel he swiped from Boomer earlier, makes the connection between the stains on the towel and the dirt from the water tank, and realizes that Boomer may actually be responsible.
- Tigh has problems with his uniform; Adama tells Apollo and Tigh that the pomp and circumstance was his idea.
- Adama welcomes Roslin aboard Galactica with military honors.
- Baltar talks about fluid dynamics and the fact is established that no human could have survived the interal pressures of the tank.
- Roslin talks to Adama finding Earth as well as finding the resources the Fleet needs.
- Number Six tells Baltar that Starbuck is not his type, to which he counters "they're all my type."

There are no deleted scenes for this episode on the official site, nor on any DVD set. This is probably because almost all of these deleted scenes were re-edited into the Director's Cut of "Pegasus" included in the R1 Season 2.5 and the R2 Season 2 DVD sets.

- Scene 18': On Galacticas flight deck, Apollo exits the Raptor only to be welcomed aboard by Anastasia Dualla, who is asked to direct Lee to Admiral Adama's quarters. Dualla confronts Lee regarding his avoidance of her, telling him that she overheard what he told Starbuck after the destruction of the Resurrection Ship. He claims that he was "sick, delirious" and that "whatever [he] was feeling, [he] never meant to dump it on [her]". She calls him out on it, claiming that she thought she was the only one who sometimes believed that she was "better off on Caprica" with the dead. He then chastises her voicing this feeling, despite harboring it himself. After climbing up the ladder to the upper deck, he gets a flashback of looking down on Gianne, his former fiancé, with whom he broke up with prior to the Cylon attack.
- Note: Dualla is from Sagittaron, not Caprica.
- Scene 25: Apollo reports to Pegasuss CIC. He asks to report to Commander Trammel, but Pegasuss new XO, Renner, informs him that Trammel is on his way to Galactica for "meet and greet" with Admiral Adama. When Apollo requests to see all logs, duty rosters and security reports, Renner begins his spiel about running warships for 20 years and is insulted that Pegasus crewmen are not running the investigation. Renner also laments that Pegasus was fine until "Galactica showed up" and that Adama can take his investigation and go "frak himself"; Apollo pins Renner to the table, saying that there was a time where he would have agreed with him. Renner orders the readied Marines to stand down. Lee then warns Renner that if he should "say another word against my father, [that] next time, you won't get up" and leaves the CIC.
- Note: Barry Trammel would later be renamed to Barry Garner due to legal issues resulting from someone actually having that name. Also, Renner is never seen or mentioned again during Season 2.
- Scene 39 (extended): Apollo regains consciousness in Shevon's quarters on Cloud 9 after being attack by Phelan's men. When he goes to lay down on the bed after the altercation, the scene transitions to a flashback where Shevon talks to Lee about Gianne, commenting that it's a "pretty name"; Lee reveals that it took him weeks to pronounce it correctly, although Gianne never corrected him, and that Gianne herself hated the name since no one could ever pronounce it correctly. After she comments that he must have truly loved her, he remarks that he wondered whether he really did. The flashback ends, resuming on the carcass of Fisk's killer with a bullet hole in his head and Lee calling for help.
- Scene 46-46A: Apollo is on Prometheus attempting to find Phelan. When walking the corridors, he is stopped by Linden. Apollo asks Linden where Phelan is, but he doesn't reveal anything until Lee gives him something to trade. After a slight altercation, Lee trades off Shevon's pocket picture holder and gets his information which leads him to Phelan's bar. Apollo opens the hatch and is stopped by a guard, who he disables, as well as a second guard that comes charging down the corridor. As Apollo is viciously punching this second guard, a third henchman surprises him by putting a gun to his head, commenting: "Ever get the feeling that your living the same bad day again?"
- 'Note: John Mann, who played Linden, also portrayed Galacticas CAG, Jackson Spencer, in the Miniseries.
- Scene 47 (Extended scene): Apollo attempts to comfort Shevon after killing Phelan at the table. Shevon rebukes Apollo, saying that she can never be Gianne. There is a brief flashback when Lee tells Shevon that Gianne was pregnant; Apollo comments that he didn't think he was ready to be a father.

Clellan comments on Brent Baxton's watch, saying that BB should leave his watch to him so that he doesn't have to bid on it at the auction. Clellan saunters out of the pilots bunk, leaving the two nuggets bewildered about Clellan's comments about an "auction", to which the episode cuts...At the auction, Lee Adama is auctioning off a copy of Nymph, which Brendan Costanza wins. During this, Clellan looks at Baxton while pointing at his watch, which results in a concerned look on Braxton's face, as Braxton looks at his own watch.
- Scene 8 pt.: Starbuck attempts to jump over the tables in the rec room. In this version, Karl Agathon attempts to pick up Thrace, but eventually sets her down in a corner nook of the lounge. Clark asks Adama whether it's always "like this", to which Adama replies that it is not and "it gets a little rowdy". The scene ends when Thrace begins to tear up.
- Scene 21: The scripted version. Gaeta announces Roslin's arrival in CIC, to which everyone stands at attention. Once at ease, Roslin goes on to inform them that the mining ship has broken another drill bit, meaning a delay of eight more days. Tigh does not react well to this and goes on to say that it isn't easy sending kids off to a shooting gallery; Tigh advocates that they should just take the metal they have mined and cut their losses. Roslin replies that the mining team has discovered a rich vein of ore, enough to build two entire squadrons of Vipers. The good news is that Pegasus's production team has turned out its first combat ready Viper. Roslin sternly informs Tigh that he must respect this operation, for it is vital to the long term survival of the Fleet. After the discussion ends, a firefight is heard over the wireless, which results in Snake's death. Roslin then asks whether the destruction of the Resurrection Ship resulted in a change of Cylon tactics, which Adama replies that Thrace is working on it. The scene ends in Sharon's brig, where Sharon says that Scar may have died a dozen times.
- Note: Snake doesn't die in the aired version and is later mentioned as a replacement pilot for Starbuck.
- Scene 36 pt.: (Extended scene). Lee Adama tells Thrace that bright, shiny futures are overrated. Inebriated, Thrace asks whether Adama can picture himself with a wife, to which both hysterically laugh at the prospect.

Adama admits that he "thought about it once" and thought that a "stinky rugrat" (Thrace's words) would be nice.
- Scene 63-64: Alternate ending. Kat is walking through the memorial hallway, where she hangs a picture of Reilly's girlfriend. Meanwhile, Thrace is praying over her Lords of Kobol figurines, promising to return for Samuel Anders.

Here, Abinell is on the phone to his wife, telling her that he is finishing up work on replacing heat sensors on Greenleaf. He then looks out the window and sees dozens of Cylon Raiders. Hurriedly, he says his goodbye to Sesha and hangs up, running down the corridor as a raider begins its strafing run. The windows of the compartment he is in are compromised and Abinell, despite his vain effort to hold on to piping that runs along the corridor, is sucked out into space.
The Captain's Hand
The following scenes are from the Season 2.5 DVD unless otherwise noted.
- Over dinner Adama and Tigh discuss Commander Garner. Tigh wonders how he managed to lose two Raptors and complains about the general state of the ship. Adama says that he sent Apollo over to keep an eye on Garner and to give him someone he can trust. Tigh asks if Adama still thinks about making Apollo Pegasus's XO (formerly available online).
- Note: This clears up Apollo's somewhat unclear status in the aired episode. He is not officially Garner's XO.
- Tory Foster tells Roslin that they'll lose the election if they lose the Gemenese and urges her to reconsider her stance on abortion in order to win. Roslin asks her if that is also the right thing to do. Foster replies that she is not there to be Roslin's counsel or conscience, but to help her to win (formerly available online).
- Scene 9: (Extended scene). This scene starts off with Garner berating Kara Thrace for not keeping track of her pilots' whereabouts or situation. In this scene, Hoshi is relieved of his post, and replaced with Abel Thornton, after failing to inform Garner that a Raptor was requesting launch clearance. Garner goes on to state that there is no excuse for the lack of cohesion that is apparent in the Pegasus crew.
- Scene 35: Thrace and Lee Adama argue over giving Garner respect; Thrace believes that the people should have a leader worthy of their respect. The scene ends when a call for flight deck personnel to report to their stations is made.
- Scenes 62-68: Alternate scene. The scenes that did not make the final cut for "The Captain's Hand" are the ones pertaining to Rya Kibby's attempted suicide after her abortion. Laura Roslin is looking out a window on Colonial One. Meanwhile, an orderly on Galactica discovers that Rya Kibby has overdosed on pills and lays on the sickbay bed, unconscious and with a rosary in her hand. The orderly presses what appears to be an alarm button on the panel above the bed. In a scene that made the final cut, we jump back to Colonial One, where Tory Foster brings in Sarah Porter, the Gemenese delegate to the Quorum of Twelve. Porter begins attacking Roslin over not prosecuting Kibby for going through with the abortion. Roslin replies that the grant for asylum came before the law was signed and thus no laws have been broken; Roslin also adds that Porter has her "pound of flesh" and suggests that "you take your victory and move on". Back in Galactica's sickbay, Doctor Cottle and nurses attempt to resuscitate Kibby and ultimately succeed in doing so.
- Scene 69 pt.: Lee Adama jokingly asks Kara Thrace whether she has a brain. As they hug, Anastasia Dualla walks in; Thrace excuses herself and states that she'll put the boots outside for them. Dualla then states that "you're not going to tell me about promotions, are you?" and discuss Adama's promotion to commander of Pegasus and how their relationship will work now that they are separated from one another physically; they begin to make out after Dualla asks whether or not Thrace was joking about the boots outside the door.
The following scenes are from the Season 2.5 DVD.
- Scene 32: Laura Roslin visits Hera in Galactica's sickbay and tearfully thanks her for saving her life.
- Scene 34-36: Gaius Baltar visits Gina on Cloud 9 in an attempt to convince her to orchestrate Hera's theft. Gina resists as she views Caprica Sharon as a deserter and her "half-breed child" to be no better, she also scoffs Baltar's attempts to convince her on religious grounds; Baltar's Six appears and reiterates her view that Gina is a "broken machine" who has lost her faith in God. Gina bluntly reminds Baltar that Roslin is leading him by 3 points in the current polls, which is what his energies should be focused upon. Baltar fine tunes his argument, ultimately convincing Gina that the theft of a Cylon child from Galactica would be politically destructive as it would undermine Roslin's credibility as a wartime leader.
- Scene 34-36 (continued): D'anna Biers, Tory Foster and Roslin hold a meeeting on Colonial One, where Biers attempts to convince Roslin to grant her exclusive access to Hera as word of the birth has apparently spread throughout the Fleet. After the discussion, Roslin agrees, as it would be beneficial for both parties: people can see the Cylon child as looking the same as a normal human child and Biers gets exclusive pictures.
- Scene 48: Biers and Gina are on Cloud 9 discussing how they will take the child. In her camera case, Biers has built a life-support system to secret the child off Galactica, which is hidden in the bulky case. When Biers claims that "little Hera will be comfortable" in the contraption, Gina retorts that the child should not be named after a human god. When briefly discussing what they should call her, Gina says "just call her 13", which Biers favorably responds to.
- Scene 54: Biers is outside of sickbay with a Marine and Layne Ishay. Ishay tells her that Biers can't see the baby. As Biers attempts to gain access, noting that Roslin herself approved the visit, Helo calls Biers a "stupid frakking vulture" when telling her that Hera is dead. Ishay claims that the baby died 20 minutes ago, which shocks Biers.

The following scenes are from the Season 2.5 DVD.
- Scene 63D: Galen Tyrol is walking on the upper level of the maintenance deck. There are flashes of his dream of falling from this upper level. Over it all, Cavil is consoling the Chief, telling him that his fear is that he fears he is a Cylon, like Sharon and he should die.
- Scene 78: Commander Lee Adama is laying in his bunk on Pegasus. Dualla is also present getting dressed after their sexual encounter; she comments that Adama hasn't signed the papers and she is a courier on official business. Dualla asks him whether or not he believes Roslin will lose to Baltar, Adama replies that while he doesn't know, she is a fighter and tells Dualla that Roslin may be on the wrong side of the colonization issue. He also voices his concern that Kara Thrace has yet to return from her SAR mission to Caprica.
Lay Down Your Burdens, Part II
The following scenes are from the Season 2.5 DVD.
- Scene 121: Tyrol talks to Cally about Cavil, who has been revealed as another humanoid Cylon, over the Deck Gang's homemade liquor. He remarks that Cavil almost got him to believe that he was a Cylon and that the two Cavils were thrown out of an airlock the night before. Cally tries to drink the liquor, but can't handle it, to which they both giggle. Cally then slowly approaches Tyrol and kisses him, much to his surprise, to which Cally replies "What, you didn't know?"
- Scene 123B: Baltar is on a Raptor where he has flashbacks of meeting Gina on Pegasus and their subseqent encounters on Cloud 9. This Raptor is headed to Cloud 9, where Baltar enters the ship through a hatch where two Marines are waiting and one follows to close the hatch. He is saluted by a fourth Marine as he enters a more decorative part of Cloud 9.
- Scene 141: Baltar is sitting on Colonial One. Admiral William Adama gives the newly elected president news of Cloud 9's destruction, stating that they believe the nuclear warhead was stolen from his lab on Galactica and that the warhead was smuggled onboard Cloud 9 by a Cylon. As Adama explains his belief that this incident might be the first step to a Cylon attack within the Fleet, Baltar is having flashbacks of being tended to by Gina, as she dresses him after their sexual encounter. Baltar rebukes Adama's attempts to tighten internal security and instead believes that their first priority is to the people, and to see that they are safely established on New Caprica. Once that is done, he believes that the tragedy would be put behind them. Adama bluntly retorts that Baltar is not listening; he replies that "I don't have to listen. I'm the president." Baltar orders that "Settlement begins and begins now". After Adama leaves, Baltar remembers the sad look on Gina's face the final time he saw her.
Season 3
- Aaron Doral pokes out Saul Tigh's eye with a hot poker. However the footage was abandoned in lieu of allowing the "viewer to simply imagine what the Cylons had done than to actually see it" for it was believed that it would be "far more unsettling".[3]
- A sub-plot featuring Tory Foster supplying information to the Circle via then-President Tom Zarek was shot, as well as Laura Roslin's discovery of Foster's involvement.[4]
A Measure of Salvation
- Various scenes were dropped for time, including:
- William Adama surveying the infected baseship in Sharon Agathon's Raptor.
- Kara Thrace's interrogation of a dying Leoben Conoy on Galactica.[5]
- At the request of Michael Hogan, a scene where Saul Tigh challenges Karl Agathon's work as Galactica's executive officer and his marriage to Sharon was cut. Hogan felt that the scene did not make sense, particularly in light of Tigh's word to Admiral Adama in the previous episode that Adama wouldn't see him again.[5]
The unrated and extended "Razor" DVD contains three deleted scenes.
- The first scene deals with Lee Adama at the Caprica Transfer Station as he awaits his Viper, so that he can participate in Galactica's decommissioning ceremony prior to the Fall of the Twelve Colonies. As he is drinking his coffee, he tells Frank Bruno about his decision to quit the Colonial Fleet while awaiting his Viper. Despite being accepted into test pilot school and on his way to "command a battlestar someday", Adama tells Bruno that these were his father's dreams, dreams that weren't really his to begin with. After he is notified that his ship is ready, he leaves, revealing that Kendra Shaw is also present, awaiting her ship to Pegasus to begin her assignment as Admiral Helena Cain's aide.
- The second deleted scene deals with Thrace talking to Shaw after Shaw is shot by a Centurion. Up until that point, Shaw didn't admit to executing the mother on the Scylla. Thrace confesses that "she did [shoot]", which leads into the next deleted scene.
- The third and last deleted scene takes place 12 hours after "33", with Kara Thrace and Lee Adama replaying gun camera footage from their successful attack on the Olympic Carrier. Adama goes through the gun footage, finding that there's a brief shadow in one of the windows which he shows Thrace. He believes the shadow is from a person aboard the Carrier, although Thrace claims that it could be anything from a trick of light to a bulkhead. Sick of reviewing the footage and discussing the issue, Thrace tells Adama that they'll have to get used to it, as she suspects that they'll have to take lives -- or even leave people behind -- in order to save others.

Hello all
I want to deploy some IOT applications in an industrial environment. TO connect sensors to the Pi what type of cables should I use so that I can avoid noise and these should also be long enough (eg 1/2 meters)
As an example, the pressure sensor: does it need to wight a mass of: 0.1g, 1g, 1kg, 100kg, 1000kg, ...
Well in that case. You can not use a Rpi to control a machine. And especially not in a industrial environment. Because you can not predic how the pi would fail in all the conditions.atulkatti wrote: ↑Mon Dec 10, 2018 4:54 amThe goal of this project is to use sensors like temp sensor, pressure sensor and photoelectric sensors to control a motor (still not very clear on the specs on the motor. But a relay will do this job based on output of the Pi). The pressure sensor have a max force of 10 kg)
That is also not correct. The PLC need to control everything. As an example what happend if you don't. You set the temperature to 250C. And all the sensors are connected to the Rpi. And the Rpi drive the PLC (motor). The Rpi decide to turn on/off* the motor. And an x amount of time the Rpi crashes, dies, restart, ect. And your motor stays in that last state forever. Because the PLC sees that his input is still high/low*, and doesn't know the other imported parameters to drive the motor.atulkatti wrote: so instead of interfacing the PI with the motor, can i interface it with PLC for turning motor on/Off. We currently have a PLC but its not too intelligent.

Grass Valley, CA
Food & Hospitality
Let a Talent Specialist match you with jobs at employers like
Holbrooke Hotel
Imagine a time when horse drawn carriages and covered wagons carried hopeful pioneers to the gold country and dreams of striking gold became a reality for many. The vision of that Victorian Era was for a life of rustic elegance and ease surrounded by majestic pine trees, raging rivers, wide open spaces and picturesque ponds.
The path to such a life wasn't always paved with the gold they dreamed of, but rather with the vision and leadership of many hard working pioneers. Stephen and Clara Smith were among the first to invest in this boomtown known today as Grass Valley. They built the Adams Express Office and the Golden Gate Saloon which sadly, were destroyed by fire in 1855 along with most of Grass Valley. The Smiths rebuilt the popular saloon as a one story fieldstone building with a brick façade, making it safer from the threat of another fire. The Golden Gate Saloon is the oldest, continuously operated saloon west of the Mississippi River.
In 1862 a relative, Charles Smith, built the current structure and named it the Exchange Hotel. It was noted for its convenience to the local Gold Exchange. When the Gold Exchange closed, 18 ounces of pure gold were found in the carpeting. Like other local buildings that were constructed, the hotel was fortified against fire damage with heavy iron doors and the roof was covered with a 12 inch layer of dirt and brick.
In 1879 the hotel was purchased by Ellen and Daniel Holbrooke and was given its current name. Daniel Holbrooke passed away in 1884, but Ellen continued to manage and operate the hotel until 1908.
In 1971, while working on a downtown Grass Valley beautification project for the business community, longtime resident Arletta Douglas, inspected the neglected hotel and realized that The Holbrooke Hotel was indeed the hidden treasure of Main Street and eagerly sought help from local citizens to begin restoration. In 1982, hotel guest rooms were restored and in 1983, the adjacent historic Purcell House was acquired and 11 additional rooms were added there. While continuing to be a vital center for local residents, the hotel was sold to Howard and Peggy Levine in 1991. The hotel was owned and managed by them until 2002, when it was sold to the Weaver Family. The new hotel proprietors are Ian and Susan Garfinkel.
Over the years, the Hotel has hosted many famous guests that included Ulysses S. Grant, Grover Cleveland, Benjamin Harrison, James Garfield and prize fighters, "Gentleman Jim" Corbett and Bob Fitzsimmons. Famous authors Mark Twain and Bret Harte were also guests of the Holbrooke Hotel. The hotel was frequented by entertainers Lola Montez, Lotta Crabtree , and Emma Nevada. Rumor has it that the infamous highwayman, Black Bart was also a guest of the hotel.
In 1974 The Holbrooke Hotel was declared a California State Landmark and proudly displays a plaque at the entrance to the hotel, commemorating that declaration.

The sun is back, then it's gone and it's still very wet. I guess that's why it's called the rainy season!
In the studio:
A little 10 x 10 cm embroidery of nodules.
I've been working on the "Entropy collection". An expanded version will be exhibited at the Tweed River Regional Art Gallery at the end of the year. It will be exhibited as an installation pinned to the wall, approximately 4 x 1.5m in size. This exhibition has now expanded into a full solo exhibition and I'm trying to bring various pieces together to form a cohesive whole. A public program, as part of the exhibition, is also being organized.

Summary and Keywords
The first half of the 20th century saw extraordinary changes in the ways Americans produced, procured, cooked, and ate food. Exploding food production easily outstripped population growth in this era as intensive plant and animal breeding, the booming use of synthetic fertilizers and pesticides, and technological advances in farm equipment all resulted in dramatically greater yields on American farms. At the same time, a rapidly growing transportation network of refrigerated ships, railroads, and trucks hugely expanded the reach of different food crops and increased the variety of foods consumers across the country could buy, even as food imports from other countries soared. Meanwhile, new technologies, such as mechanical refrigeration, reliable industrial canning, and, by the end of the era, frozen foods, subtly encouraged Americans to eat less locally and seasonally than ever before. Yet as American food became more abundant and more affordable, diminishing want and suffering, it also contributed to new problems, especially rising body weights and mounting rates of cardiac disease.
American taste preferences themselves changed throughout the era as more people came to expect stronger flavors, grew accustomed to the taste of industrially processed foods, and sampled so-called "foreign" foods, which played an enormous role in defining 20th-century American cuisine. Food marketing exploded, and food companies invested ever greater sums in print and radio advertising and eye-catching packaging. At home, a range of appliances made cooking easier, and modern grocery stores and increasing car ownership made it possible for Americans to food shop less frequently. Home economics provided Americans, especially girls and women, with newly scientific and managerial approaches to cooking and home management, and Americans as a whole increasingly approached food through the lens of science. Virtually all areas related to food saw fundamental shifts in the first half of the 20th century, from agriculture to industrial processing, from nutrition science to weight-loss culture, from marketing to transportation, and from kitchen technology to cuisine. Not everything about food changed in this era, but the rapid pace of change probably exaggerated the transformations for the many Americans who experienced them.
Keywords: cooking, food distribution, foreign food, pure food reform, nutrition, weight-loss culture, kitchen technology, food industry, home economics, marketing

Dawn of the Jobe Wakeboard Era
Jobe is at the verge of a completely new era; a Jobe wakeboard era. In the upcoming years Jobe will invest heavily in the development of new wakeboards and bindings. Jobe will approach the market using an innovative vision, unprecedented ideals and revolutionary ideas. A fresh approach in which passion, independence and ambition form the key elements.
A firm basis for the development of a strong wakeboard brand has already been laid with Jobe using all Jstar moulds and knowledge for Jobe purposes. From the start of the new season Jstar will therefore no longer be produced. So in 2012 only Jobe boards will be launched using the very successful Jstar Unix (previously Lidberg) shape for example.
For next season Jobe will already launch a new wakeboard shape and a completely new binding range. The Pro Series by CK (Christian Koester, UK) consists of a board and bindings with totally new shapes which are designed completely according to the wishes of the UK 2010 Cable Champion. Furthermore US national champion Austin Hair (4th in US Pro Tour in 2010) and Maxine Sapulette (WWA World Champion) will also get their pro model series.
Besides these athletes Jobe will also be represented by many other absolutely world class riders like world champions Kirsteen Mitchell and Chloe Goudie and the current junior number 2 in the world Declan Clifford.
