Dominator debuts at Kings Dominion [with video]
Written by Russell Meyer
It's billed as the longest floorless coaster with one of the tallest vertical loops in the world, and the 4,210 foot long B&M creation does not disappoint. Typical guests won't realize it, but the Kings Dominion's newest addition is not new at all.Tweet
It's a coaster that was installed at the now defunct Geauga Lake (formerly known as Six Flags Worlds of Adventure) in 2000, as Batman Knight Flight. Six Flags operated the coaster for 4 years until Cedar Fair bought the Aurora, OH park in 2004. The newly renamed Dominator operated at Geauga Lake through last year, when Cedar Fair made the announcement that the park would operate exclusively as a water park for the 2008 season.
Kings Dominion became the biggest benefactor of the transformation of Geauga Lake, as their most valuable asset, Dominator, made its way 400 miles southeast from central Ohio to central Virginia. The move is likely to pay off for Cedar Fair, as Kings Dominion continues its success drawing fans from Virginia, Maryland, and the Washington, DC area, while Geauga Lake's popularity wanes.
Dominator gives Kings Dominion its very first B&M roller coaster. It is also a coaster that can handle large crowds, a trait that is not seen in any of the other coasters at Kings Dominion, particularly the now dismantled Hypersonic XLC. Dominator also features more inversions (5) than any of the other coasters in the park, bringing the park's total inversion count to 18 between the 13 roller coasters.
Dominator is conveniently located near the front of the park, just a short stroll off of Main Street. The coaster is readily visible from the main parking lot, and the roar of this steel beast will likely taunt guests before they even walk through the front gates. Unlike Geauga Lake, where the coaster track was predominantly over water, Dominator is situated at Kings Dominion around a large pedestrian plaza, where guests not wanting to ride can observe virtually the entire ride. The only problem with the placement of Dominator is that bathrooms are a bit of a hike, with the closest ones all the way back on Main Street or in Kidzville. It's likely that the park will do a brisk business during the hot humid days of summer selling cold beverages with no water fountains nearby, especially considering the majority of the queue line is not covered.
Those who rode the coaster in Ohio will not detect any changes. Dominator features five inversions, a 135-foot tall vertical loop, a cobra roll (2 inversions), and an interlocking pair of corkscrews. Fans of B&M designs will be very familiar with these inversions, but will likely be surprised by the intensity of the twists and turns between the inversions. The coaster starts out with a 157-foot drop accelerating the floorless trains to speeds approaching 65 miles per hour, making Dominator the second fastest coaster in the park behind Volcano: The Blast Coaster. Riders are then sent through one of the largest vertical loops in the world before negotiating two highly banked turns.
The coaster then goes through a cobra roll, which provides the best opportunity for "foot-choppers" in the front row, before reaching the mid-course brake.
After the brake, riders are given a rare treat on a looping coaster, airtime. The drop after the brake provides almost a full second of airtime that is best experienced in the back row. The train then sends riders through two interlocking corkscrews, a common element on B&M looping coasters, before going through a tight helix and back to the station.
Let's ride...
My impression of this coaster hasn't changed much since its move from Ohio. The coaster is pretty intense, particularly for a B&M, but with only five inversions and a layout that doesn't really take advantage of the floorless trains, it still falls behind Kraken and Superman: Krypton Coaster in the floorless coaster hierarchy. Its billing as the longest floorless coaster seems deceptive, since there are parts of the coaster at the beginning and end that seem like filler to achieve the length record. However, the unique layout sets it apart from other coasters, and fills a needed void at Kings Dominion by offering a high capacity, high-thrill attraction that will keep guests coming back for more. Dominator will open to the public just in time for the Memorial Day Weekend on Saturday, May 22, 2008.
Readers' Opinions
From Robert Niles on May 20, 2008 at 10:14 PM
Great report, as always, Russell. Thanks!
From James Rao on May 20, 2008 at 11:41 PM
Another great ride report!
While the area around the coaster looks a little short on eye-candy, foliage, or anything other than dirt, the coaster itself looks like a lot of fun.
I may make it out to KD towards the end of the summer when I fly back to Annandale, VA to visit some friends. If I do make it to the park, this coaster definitely looks like it would be the first stop on my KD Touring Plan!
From Larry Zimmerman on May 21, 2008 at 3:47 AM
KD, always a contender in the coaster category, adds a top-flight attraction to its repertoire of rides. I loved this ride at Geauga Lake, and now it's another reason to go back to Kings Dominion. Perhaps they should have named it "Dominionator."
From Todd Houts on May 21, 2008 at 5:59 AM
I was on a coaster run in Ohio last August and stopped at Geauga Lake on a Thursday just one month before it closed for good. It was like my own private amusement park for the first few hours as the park was nearly empty. Once Dominator opened for the day (operators arrived about 30 minutes after the park opening) I rode it six times in a row - four of those as the only passenger. I'm looking forward to trying Dominator in its new home when I get to visit Six Flags America, King's Dominion and Busch Gardens Europe while tacking a short coaster outing to a brief business trip to DC in mid-June. (Although I'm most excited about my first-ever trip to BGE.)
From Anthony Murphy on May 21, 2008 at 6:37 AM
Your report puts mine to shame :)
From Deidre Dennis on May 21, 2008 at 9:04 AM
I've been watching the progress of this all winter long as we, too, have a planned trip to BGE (first trip ever), Six Flags America and purchased our tickets to Kings Dominion about a month ago. We're excited to visit this park. This coaster looks awesome and we can't wait to ride. Woo Hoo!
From Derek Potter on May 21, 2008 at 5:28 PM
KD has a winner here. I've ridden this one several times...one of the best B&M's in the country. I don't necessarily agree that it's inferior to Kraken. It's pretty neat that they surrounded it with pathways though. Maybe a little more development around the coaster would look a little better.
From Peter Stephens on May 25, 2008 at 10:00 PM
I rode Dominator today - front row and back row, (and got the free T-shirt!) It is an excellent ride; the best KD has to offer. It's best described as an "up-close-and-personal-coaster". All of the cue lines and the station are part of the experience as Dominator makes multiple passes within a few feet of guests waiting for and departing the ride. It is very loud (in a good way) and the ground shakes noticeably when the train is near. The "noise" seems to be due to both the proximity of the track to the spectators and the design of the box-beam rail which produces that hollow roar even when the train isn't nearby.
The front seat had the novelty of absolutely no floor but the best ride was in the back row. The inversions are very much like those of the inverted Alpengeist (at BGE) and similar in intensity. The ride is "B&M smooth" but a little "shakier" than other B&M's (but not jerky, in any way). The arrangement of the relatively long track and various features into a compact area is well done. The lines moved very quickly; something KD has never seen. My favorite sensations were the first drop (back row), the tall loop (back row), the general nearness to the ground/people/structures (front row) and the resulting impression of speed and change of direction. Seats were comfortable and attractive. The view of the track from anywhere and everywhere and the constant roar (again, a GOOD sound) are unmatched. All seats are "good seats". Decent, brief air-time is experienced on the 1st hill and after the MCBR, but the strength of Dominator is in the inversions and uniqueness of the layout.
Negatives: There is no theming and no scenic/landscaping value at this point. Painting has not been completed. The attendant made me remove my tightly strapped-on prescription glasses on my SECOND ride. (No explanation.)
Ride it!

The King of Kids Meals
For many mothers, providing healthy and good-tasting meals for their kids is a big priority, and with the day filled with school, career, and activities, it's often difficult to make time to provide quality meals -- and carve out time for family bonding.
Burger King, the well-known national restaurant chain, recently revamped their entire kid's meal with the launch of the BK CROWN™ Program which offers smart meal choices for kids such as fresh apple slices and fat free milk. The kids' colorful meal box comes with a detachable crown that kids can tear off and put on, a toy, and is packed with lots of fun games and interesting activities that stimulate your child's reasoning, creativity, and imagination.
Did you know that the BK CROWN™ Program also allows kids to help choose how Burger King gives back? BK has partnered with organizations supporting Wildlife, the Environment and Education. As kids and parents enjoy the activities on the box, they can talk about which charity they want Burger King to support, and discuss the various causes.
Kids can feel empowered when they vote online at BKCrown.com for their favorite charity using the code provided on their BK CROWN™ box. It's a great opportunity for parents to engage their kids in conversation about social issues and what it means to give back to others and the global community.
So plan on heading out for a meal at Burger King where you can:
• Feel good about feeding your child a smart and tasty meal that gives your child choice of what they want to eat.
• Provide fun activities that encourage your child to think outside the lines and imagine stories or invent new languages.
• Spend quality time with your child and family, promoting social interaction and sharing.
• Empower your child with the ability to make a decision and learn about giving back to charity.
The BK CROWN™ Program is all about combining family, community, fun and great food by encouraging families to take the time to sit down, enjoy a meal and spend some time together. Tune in on May 30th at 7:30 am (ET/PT) as Patty Trevino from Burger King talks about the new kids meal program at Burger King aimed at feeding the heart, mind and body of kids.

La capture d'écran peut être un moyen de convaincre, elle peut offrir un diagnostic et donne une dimension réaliste à la nécessité de traiter ou d'apprendre... de changer de comportement dans les pratiques. L'image vaut mieux que mille mots et peut renvoyer vers un lien, une application pour en savoir plus, un résumé succin ou un slogan peuvent accrocher et donner envie d'aller voir plus loin. La mise en avant de l'image pour attirer l'attention est importante, comment mettre en avant l'image, il s'agit du pouvoir des mots et de l'image mais aussi de la créativité générée autour de cela.

Sooner or later, every organisation will have to manage projects. The plan is to get the project done as quickly as possible. Project management takes ideas and converts them into a planned, resourced and funded outcome. It is the art of making things happen. Skills for managers in that area become absolutely critical.
Scott Berkun at Microsoft offers some guidance on how managers should handle projects. He says there is nothing innate about it. "Some people are able to apply their skills and talents in whatever combination necessary to move projects forward, and others cannot, even if they have the same or superior individual skills,'' Berkun writes. "The ability to make things happen is a combination of knowing how to be a catalyst or driver in a variety of different situations, and having the courage to do so."
He says the most important tool managers should have is the ability to prioritise and creating lists.
"Typically, these ordered lists have one important line dividing them into two pieces. The top part is priority 1: things we must do and cannot possibly succeed without. The second part is everything else. Priorities 2 and 3 exist but are understood to be entirely different kinds of things from priority 1. It is very difficult to promote priority 2 items into priority 1. This priority 1 line must be taken very seriously. You should fight hard to make that list as small and tight as possible (this applies to any goal lists in the vision document as well). An item in the priority 1 list means "We will die without this." It does not mean things that are nice to have or that we really want to have: it gives the tightest, leanest way to meet the project goals."
The Canberra Institute of Technology says there are six steps: work out exactly what's required; plan in full detail the scope, time, cost, quality, human resources, communications, risk and procurement; be completely familiar and at ease with all the software management tools; make sure you delegate appropriately as the project manager's role is to guide and lead the project, not do all the work; know how to manage change and co-ordinate a set number of resources to achieve the desired outcome in a specified time frame and finally, build a top team and work to support them.
The Enterprise Project Management site identifies the following project management skills: the ability to conduct analysis, communication, budgeting, teamwork, intelligence and razor sharp time management.
Project management specialists say they have to work as both leaders, who share and communicate a common vision, and managers who have to make sure the work gets done. They also need to be team builders and team leaders, excellent communicators, great organisers and planners, problem solvers and negotiators and influencers.
Alternatively, the AIM offers a courses like this one in project management.
What would you say are the essential project management skills?

Feature Article: Seven tire killers
Getting wheels aligned "is one of the best ways to spend your maintenance dollars," Walenga says, "Misaligned steer tires will wear prematurely, especially when toe-in is way off. This can happen to the point where the treadwear cuts into the casing and even the cords, so the steel is gone. At this point, the tire is nothing but scrap." An inspector will write you up, too, for a tire sustaining such damage.
While toe-in is the most important setting and the one you need to check and reset most frequently, total vehicle alignment – aligning the trailer, drive and steer axles at an appropriate mileage – is just as important. For example, a trailer that's "dog-tracking," or running with the rear to one side, will wear the tires on the tractor, too. Consult with your tire dealer or a quality alignment shop about appropriate intervals for your application.
4 Poor suspension maintenance
Normal suspension component wear will result in a need for periodic alignment. However, neglect of the suspension system will create a snowball effect, with the tire facing uneven stresses that change every few seconds, as well as a suspension system that simply cannot be brought to spec.
Says Miller, "Steering system, suspension and wheel end maintenance … periodic checks for tie rod end looseness, worn king pins, wheel bearings and shock absorbers are essential. Any of these components that are worn out will kill tire wear in two ways. First, it is impossible to do a proper alignment of axles (including toe, camber and caster) without the components being up to snuff.
"Second, looseness or a compliant component that should be rigid in any of these systems will create irregular wear conditions that are usually irreversible once they start." In other words, when tread wears in a certain, irregular pattern, conditions are created that make that wear spread because the tire can't roll smoothly and with all the tread rubber taking equal loads.
Key suspension maintenance activities include frequent greasing, at least twice every oil change, with the grease specified by the component manufacturer, and frequent inspection of tie-rods, king pins, suspension bushings and the like for looseness.
Also, replacing shocks whenever they fail to maintain a stable ride will eliminate uneven tread wear, while also preserving the life of all the chassis components and making the ride more comfortable.
5 Improper mounting and de-mounting
"I'm sure we've all seen YouTube videos of Arctic race teams mounting tires with starting fluid," Gudermuth says, referring to spraying ether inside the tire and igniting it to blow a tire onto the rim. "Even if the tire survives the mounting process, it can easily damage the liner, leading to failure in service. The more immediate concern is detonation of the tire through the burned body ply, or from explosive accumulation of pressure in the wall of the casing."
This mounting method isn't the only foolish technique that has been around for years. Using improper tools with rough edges that pry too hard and damage the bead is a common one. Instead, use a tire mounting/demounting machine or tools designed to protect the bead from concentrated force.
For mounting, "You need a clean and round wheel," meaning one that has never been damaged or over-stressed, Walenga says, "and the tire must be properly mated to that wheel." The rim needs to be clean, so grit or dirt won't keep the tire from sliding on properly in one area.
To check that mounting is even, look for the guide rib, a thin line on the outside of the tread. It should be an even distance from the outer edge or flange of the rim all the way around. This requires good mounting technique, plus the use of the proper lubricant on the rim and bead. Check both sides.
Walenga stresses the need to check the tire stem when remounting. Replace the core seal, which unscrews, rather than re-using the old one. The cap is supposed to be the primary seal, so replace that, too. The smartest procedure is to install a flow-through design that seals but also allows the driver to check pressure and put air in the tire without removing the cap.

''Oz the Great and Powerful'' is living up to its name at the box office. Disney's 3-D blockbuster led all films for the second week in a row, taking in $42.2 million according to studio estimates Sunday. Sam Raimi's prequel to the L. Frank Baum classic ''The Wonderful Wizard of Oz'' took in $46.6 million overseas, leading to a two-week worldwide total of $281.8 million. Among the weekend's debuts, the Halle Berry thriller ''The Call'' far exceeded expectations with a $17.1 million opening for Sony and TriStar Pictures. The Steve Carell magician comedy ''The Incredible Burt Wonder-stone'' fared worse, opening with $10.3 million for Warner Bros.

We have heard all kind of rumors about the upcoming Mercedes SLC . Initially, it was rumored that the model would be offered as a baby-SLS, but rumors are now pointing toward the SLC being the successor to the larger SLS .
Rumors from Car say that The SLC will be built on an updated version of the SLS's aluminum space-frame architecture and will be offered with a choice of a V-6 or V-8 engine. Car also claims that base versions will get a 3.0-liter V-6 engine with an output of about 333 horsepower, while top versions will get a 4.0-liter V-8 twin-turbo engine with an output of about 485 horsepower. Also claimed it that there will be an SLC S version that will target the 911 Turbo S. It will get a high-output version of the V-8 engine, which will deliver an impressive 585 horsepower.
According to the report, the new Mercedes SLS will be unveiled in 2015 and will be priced from about £70,000 (around $110,000 at the current exchange rates).
With rumors like these, we have to take them with a grain of salt, but it is nice to see some word on this much-anticipated model. We'll see just how true these really are.

Big bag of green onions
- jeniyo Mar 12, 2009 11:47 AM
I went to my sister's. Her backyard is not covered in weeds, instead, her partner cultivated the entire yard in to a veggie garden studded with huge bunches of beautiful (thinner) green onions. She gave me a bag...
instead of scallion pancakes and scallions sauteed in stir fries, do you have a fun way to use these up? Scallion pesto/ sauce with chili?? i have ALOT.
Thanks in advance! and happy cooking...
re: pcdarnell
Grilled scallions are great! Just takes a few minutes on the grill. Try a squeeze of lemon or lime juice over them after they're cooked, or a drizzle of a nice balsamic or sherry vinegar. Delicious.
re: janniecooks
They really are good
re: pcdarnell
I can attest that grilled scallions are a winner. They actually become sweet.
As for the pesto idea...consider making different condiments. One of my favorites is fresh ginger, scallions, Canola Oil and Kosher salt. It goes great on Asian Dumplings, chicken, beef, pork, sea foods and fish. I also make variations by including crushed red pepper flakes, cayenne pepper, chili pepper, jalapeno peppers, Italian long hot peppers, soy sauce and sesame oil. The combinations are endless. One caution if you opt for garlic...it can be overwhelming.
For the scallions and ginger, they should be finely minced....but you can pulse them in a food processor to you preferred consistency just as well. Unlike (janel0's version, this is not cooked or heated/
Koreans finely julienne scallions for accompaniments to BBQ. Julieened scallions also make a nice salad whithAsian style dressings. Houston's(The Chain) make a pretty good slaw with scallions too.
re: pcdarnell
another vote for grilled green onions!
re: chicaraleigh
Yet another voter - and a great side dish that unfortunately only gets made when there's too many onions. Other times, the green onion is too precious to use.
I just had a bag of green onions that I went through. I used them to make pork dumplings and then mussels (with garlic, ginger, green onions and chicken broth).
You can also finely chop green onions and ginger, saute with oil and add soya sauce, then spoon over baked/steamed/grilled fish.
Hope that helps.
We use them in salads, quick sauces, mixed in with home fries or hash brown, to accent Asian-inspired veggies of all kinds, salsa, guacamole.
HUM... i think i'll make a batch of the green onion paste and have it with some fish or stuff it in a chicken breast. I like 'em strong... *_*
I guess i can try make a sesame griddle cake with the bulk of the green onions inside... it's the stuff you get in muslim resturants. Do you guys know if this is yeast and baking powder combo or self rising flour or just plain old yeast?
happy chowing..
Mix up some cheese logs or balls and freeze for impromptu gatherings.
I use equal parts of goat cheese and cream cheese, chopped grn onions, pineapple, season salt and then roll in chopped roasted nuts...wrap in plastic wrap and thaw as needed.
Lucky you. I discovered this recipe in Saveur years ago, and it hope you will like it:
2 cloves garlic,
6 bunches scallions sauteed in olive oil until soft and wilted,
deglaze with white wine, which is then reduced,
enriched with veal stock and
mounted with a half-stick of butter.
This is poured over a pound of spaghetti. I seem to recall copius amounts of parmesan cheese, too. I know I always add that. Perhaps someone else is a fan and will give us both the exact measurements. If you could find that back issue, it had a whole article on green onions/scallions.
My other favorite recipe would be green onion pancakes with plenty of sesame oil.
I made a wonderful spring(green) onion soup once to use up a hoard of green onions in my mother's fridge but I can't for the life of me recall where the rec came from.
I made this a few weeks ago, very good.
A seafood dish with mussels and clams which I think was mentioned uses a lot
I love a good pesto
a good fresh chick pea and garlic puree with fresh shallots, some white wine and broth
over a good pasta is a great dish
Also a ginger scallion sauce with soy, scallions, oyster sauce, etc is great over grilled
seafood, shrimp scallops and fish. I don't have the recipe handy but can fine it
Scallions, leeks and potato soup topped with fresh grilled shrimp and pancetta
Whenever I have some fresh scallions..I make Prawn (Shrimp) fritters:
Chop up (Pea Size) 1/2 Kg raw shrimp
1/2 cup finely diced scallions
1 tsp minced garlic
1 tsp grated fresh ginger
1 egg white
1 TBL Asian Cooking Sherry
2-3 TBL flour
(Canola Oil) to fry
Just mix all ingreds well except oil...
Drop by the heaping tablespoon full into hot oil (Frying Pan)...flatten slightly.turn after 2 mins..cook another 2 mins...Drain well on paper towels..season with salt and serve if you like with a lemon garlic Aoli.. Wonderful !!
green onion yogurt bread. It's amazing, I love it. I think I found it on Baking Bites website, but if you google it you will find it. We go through loaves and loaves of it.
And the green onion biscuits on the epicurious website. The biggest hit of a brunch I made for lots of people.
Prepare them like calcots! Char them on a grill set on high. Oil isn't necessary, since you want the outer layer really burnt. Then pull them off and wrap them in newspapers to steam for about 15 minutes.
Unwrap and dip in Romesco, bagna cauda (not authentic, but neither are thin onions) or olive oil with lots of salt.
These are always a fixture as the first course at my cookouts, and they're always a huge hit. Messy, but so great.

As many of you know, I teach One-Day Tech classes. At the start of each class, I go over the following to help focus students on what to keep in mind when taking the test.
Technical Topics
For the Tech test, the focus is on rules and safety. It is not very technical. Having said that, there are three technical topics that you need to know:
- Ohm's Law,
- how to calculate power, and
- the relationship between frequency and wavelength.
Ohm's Law
The basic formula for Ohm's Law is voltage (E) equals current (I) times resistance (R), or E = I x R. On the test, there are several questions where they give you two of the values and ask you to calculate the third. If you're asked to calculate the current, you use the formula, I = E / R. If you need to calculate the resistance, use the formula R = E / I.
How to Calculate Power
The formula for calculating power is power (P) = voltage (E) times current (I), or P = E x I. To calculate the current drawn, when given the power being consumed and the voltage applied to the circuit, use the formula I = P / E.
Relationship Between Frequency and Wavelength
There are several questions that require you to calculate the wavelength of a signal or some fraction of the wavelength. The reason for this is that antennas are often a fraction of a wavelength.
The formula that describes the relationship between frequency and wavelenght is wavelength in meters = 300 / frequency in MHz. One question asks for the approximate length of a quarter-wavelength vertical antenna for 146 MHz. To figure that out, you first calculate the wavelength:
wavelength = 300/146 = 2.05 m or about 80 inches
One quarter of 80 inches is 20 inches, and the antenna will actually be a little bit shorter than that because radio travels more slowly in wire than it does in free space. The correct answer to this question is 19 inches.
That's all there is to the technical part of the test!
There are lots of questions on the test about operating safely and being safe when working on antennas. My advice when answering these questions is to always choose the most conservative answer. The two exceptions are when asked what is the lowest voltage and current that can hurt you. For these questions, the correct answer is the second lowest choices.
There are lots of questions about what to do in emergencies. There are two things to keep in mind when answering these questions:
- You should do whatever you can to help someone who is in an emergency situation.
- You can even break the rules to help someone in an emergency situation. This includes operating on frequencies you are normally not allowed to operate on and communicating with other stations in other radio services.
Miscellaneous Tips
Here are a couple of other miscellaneous tips:
- The answer is 'D.' If one of the answers to a question is, "D. All of these answers are correct," chances are that is the correct answer. There are 18 questions with this option, and of those 18 questions, there are only two questions–T3B06 and T5B03–where that is not the correct answer.
- Long-Answer Rule. Where one answer is a lot longer than the other options, chances are that this is the correct answer. I haven't done an exhaustive study of this, but when one answer is very long, take a good, hard look at it.
That's all I have. What tips do you have for passing the Tech test?

The professions do seem like the area where the greatest trouble might arise, unlike enemies where the colour is linked to an actually number, or a drop, whose stats should be some indication of its value.
ME EITHER!!!!!!...sigh also when a BOE epic drops I always have to ask....is that purple? or blue? because honestly I can not tell the difference.
I am green-red colorblind and its a pain have these struggles. Thank you so much blizzard for this.
And btw colorblindness doesnt mean you cant see color!!!! Each type is different. I for instance have trouble with colors of the same hue. IE Dark green Dark blue Dark anything looks the same.

January 2008
MB: Hey, hey alls y'all! (Wow, that sounded weird when I said it aloud...) here is just a series of song fics! The songs are the tracks of the famous Beatles album, Abbey road! This one here is called 'Come Together.'
Disclaimer: Both the characters in this story and the song, 'Come Together' belong ONLY to their respective owners.
Here come old flattop,
he come grooving up slowly
Kagome creeped around a large Sakura tree, her sapphire eyes ever so watchful of her target.
He got joo-joo eyeball,
he one holy roller
She blushed as the boy turned around tensely. His pearly eyes seemed to glow in the daylight. He looked suspiciously in her direction.
He got hair down to his knee
His hair got longer. She thought happily. The boy just continued to glare her way. She sucked in a silent breath nervously.
Got to be a joker he just do what he please
He shrugged his shoulders and continued to walk. She smiled. He was supposed to be training with his uncle at the moment. She hopped along after him.
He wear no shoeshine he got toe-jam football
She frowned as she looked down. His sandals were already worn out! It had only been a few months too! She huffed angrily, knowing that he would make her buy the new shoes for him.
He got monkey finger he shoot coca-cola
He turned around tersely, and beckoned her to him with a jerk of his index finger. She sighed happily and ran to him. She liked how he always had long slender fingers.
He say "I know you, you know me"
"Kagome." The ninja stated gruffly.
"Neji-kun?" She thought he would be happy to see her.
One thing I can tell you is you got to be free
He looked hesitant, "I always wanted to know..."
She looked joyful, as usual, "Yes, Neji-kun?"
"Why do you hang around me? Don't you want to be free?" Neji looked apprehensive.
Kagome shook her head, "I am free with you, Neji. Don't worry about me!" She grinned at him brightly.
Come together right now over me
He looked positively radiant as he grabbed her, holding her body to his.
He bag production he got walrus gumboot
He placed a kiss on her forehead.
She blushed prettily.
He got Ono sideboard he one spinal cracker
"Anata no baka desu!" She chided playfully, "If I didn't like you I wouldn't be here!"
He got feet down below his knee
He smiled, letting her out of his gentle embrace, and looked at his feet.
She looked up, "Y'know," She began, "You have really bony knees..."
Neji glared, and whacked her lightly on the shoulder, which Kagome easily dodged.
Hold you in his armchair you can feel his disease
She rammed into him, catching him in a loving embrace once again. Pulling back, she touched his headband, knowing that right under it was the only thing keeping the boy from reaching his full potential.
Come together right now over me
She sighed, grabbing his shirt and resting her cheek on his flat chest.
He roller-coaster he got early warning
He pushed her away, the stoic mask once again placed on his face, turning back toward the area he was supposed to be in.
Damn him. Has more mood swings than a PMSing girl! She pouted before following him again.
He got muddy water he one mojo filter
She tripped and fell into a puddle of mud and he smirked. Kagome stuck her tongue out at him and blew a raspberry.
He say "One and one and one is three"
"Oji-san won't be very happy if he sees you there. He only likes it to be us when were training. He says that 'three's a crowd.'" The girl nodded, but continued to trail after him, ignoring his warning.
Got to be good-looking 'cause he's so hard to see
There was no doubt in Kagome's mind that she was going to get in trouble, but for her Neji, it was worth it. She loved him, and there was nothing that Neji no oji-san or anyone else could do about it.
Come together right now over me
Anata no baka desu! - you're stupid!
Oji-san - Uncle
Neji no oji-san - Neji's uncle
(Ojii-san is grandpa, oji-san is uncle)

need help with my mantel
January 17, 2013 in Design Dilemma
I love my new house, but it still feels a bit cold. The mantel and shelves have stumped me. Help please!:)
I think the dark paint color in the bookshelves insets is too dark. I would consider going with something like a grasscloth, or something with some texture and subtle pattern that is not so dark. As for the shelves themselves, given that this is the focal point of the room with the television and fireplace, I think you really could utilize the bookshelves more. I would get pieces of art to place in the alcove and shelves with some color and/or decorative items mixed in with books and pictures to add some color and variety. Can't see your rug colors well, but if there is a warm color, perhaps bring that into the room with pillows or a throw or onto the coffee table with books, vase, bowls or other types of decor. You could check on Houzz under bookshelves decor for lots of great examples for bookshelves. Wanted to add that another possibility for the bookshelves wall to add color would be if there is a warm color in the rug, for instance an orange, you could paint a lighter shade orange on the back of the bookshelves as another option.
On the bookcases I would suggest the following...you need different textures...I would add a basket to both sides but on different shelves...get two different baskets with different shapes. On staggered shelves line up a few books standing straight up on the end of the shelf...next to the books standing up, put several books sideways leaning against the books standing up...do not Do this on every shelf...you will have to play with it...another idea is to display three small plates on a stand side by side...you can fill in with your photos and possibly an interesting candle....your room is beautiful and displaying items in an classy but uncluttered way will look great...you will need to try different things, but the books and basket help break up the look....
I forgot to mention that you should try to put a small arrangement of greens on one of the shelves to soften it...I have a similar set up with a twelve foot long mantle and I put nothing on the mantle to avoid too much clutter....again, you have to play with it to get the look you want...
You need some furniture and lighting to fill this room in. Lighting is the key element that most people overlook. You want three levels of lighting, overhead which you've got, just make sure you've got dimmer switches, you'll also want lamp or mid room lighting and some in cabinet lighting will do wonders for those book shelves. The windows are very broad, I would think about adding more panels to help break them up. That will help cozy up the room too. Create a seating area (2 club chairs and a table) in front of the window, pull the couch and coffee table closer in to the fireplace/tv, add some artwork. That should make big difference. It's a nice big room, have fun with it, maybe get some big floor pillows, a big arcing lamp that goes from behind the sofa over the coffee table (see pic).

The wall is really chopped up with the light fireplace stone, the taupe dry wall columns, the dark natural wood cabinets and the dark painted alcoves above. The best thing you could do to make this wall cohesive and attractive is paint all the dark wood cabinetry white like the trim in the rest of the room and install gray or a natural color grass cloth as suggested on the back wall of the arch above the fireplace and the back of the bookcases. Natural stained wood is not sacred if it does not work. You can fuss all you want with different accessorizing schemes and it still will not be successful if you do not get the interior architecture right. Start there and everything will fall into place. Eventually add a couple of chairs to create a conversation area even if the main purpose of the room is for TV watching. The chairs can have a swivel base to orient towards conversation or the TV.

I could see the dark wood around/near the fireplace painted a medium shade of gray and three appropriately sized paintings in the space above the fireplace. Or getting a bit fancy--I could also see a type of 'swirling' mosaic work with irradescent tiles on the wall space above the fireplace.
January 17, 2013 at 9:25PM Like
Your space has excellent potential. I love your area rug. I agree that your cabinets on either side of the fireplace are just too dark for the space. An elegant option is to paint them both the same color as the trim. or the same color as the wall of the mantle for a more modern touch. Topiary trees 2 or 3in varied shape and size in a grouping on the mantle would look awesome.Bring out the yellow from your carpet by tying that color ribbon around the base of the topiaries. A med sized round mirror on the wall of the mantle and a grouping of pillar candles in a cream color would add warmth and interest as well.A side table beside the couch would add interest and offer a place to put a nice plant,, or vase filled with twigs to add a bit of warmth to the room (twigs painted white can be placed in a large vase on the floor beside the couch too.. A soft butter yellow upholstered chair (or 2) would look great to the right and left of the sofa. The 2 ottoman appear a bit lost over by the wall....maybe need to put them in front of the fire place? Good luck to you. Diana
the sofa, area rug, and curtains tie in nicely. But your entertainment center is a stumper because the fireplace/ tv combo are not centered. They are both " off" and they compete for attention. That half moon space above could use some books, spot lights, objects. Tempting to consider painting the wood tones around the tv set to match the fireplace colors, not the built ins. It is really lacking definition on that entire wall. Def need that side lamp shown above, and to bring the gray ottoman squares closer to the middle of the room. Inject a bit of yellow into the decor for contrast to the gray.
HI -- You have three colors on the one wall , which is making it look too chopped up. I think if you go by some of the colors in the fireplace tiles and make the wood and the background colors a little more together and add some texture.I would lighten the wood by painting it .Then add a textured wallpaper like a grass cloth or a linen or maybe even some mirror on the background wall. If you make the whole wall a more blended tone by cutting down the contrasts , then that wall will look bigger also. Then display one long low iteresting item in the centre mantel section and keep the side shelves very simple . Look on Houzz for some ideas on how to display on book shelves.

This is a good looking room. I agree you need some greenery above the TV. If you don't like live plants, You can do good quality silk. Some pottery or baskets could be nice.
January 18, 2013 at 7:57AM Like
I would put mirror in back of bookshelves and above tv/ fireplace inset. It would reflect a lot of light and seem to push the wall out. You could also have resessed lights installed above side bookshelf area with glass shelves. Also use less shelves using larger decor pieces to look less cluttered for more impact.

I'm not fond of niches unless you are a collector of art. But here is one example of how they can be used tastefully.

Hi, While browsing thru Houzz photos under Urban Town House designer Lorraine G. Vale I came across a living room that has a similar lay out as yours. Check it out. I hope it helps!! Good luck with your project.

Something to keep in mind with the shelves. Think in three's when arranging. i.e. a small stack of books with a small picture on top of them and a small vase next to that.

Life on Plymouth Plantation Have you ever wondered what life was like 375 years ago in America? What did the men, women, and children first see and experience when they landed at Plymouth Rock in 1620? These brave people left their homes in England to escape religious persecution by immigrating to America!

The Real Pocahontas Matoaka was the beautiful and lively daughter of Powhatan, ruler of the land that the English named Virginia. "Pocahontas" was her childhood nickname, translated as "little wanton," meaning she was playful and hard to control. Pocahontas saved the struggling Jamestown colony from extinction twice.
Jamestown Rediscovery: Captain John Smith Virginians know that Captain John Smith was one of the first American heroes. But because he was a proud and boastful man, it is difficult to know which parts of his life are fact and which are fiction.

13 Originals-Founding the American Colonies The history of the original 13 colonies is a tangled tale indeed. There are many ways to view the events and, in hind sight, it is easy to think you understand. But no one knew where they were headed at the time and it could have ended up very different.
The House of Burgesses The English kings who ruled the 13 original colonies reserved the right to decide the fate of their colonies as well, but not alone. The colonists drew upon their claims to traditional English rights and insisted on raising their own representative assemblies. Such was the case with the Virginia House of Burgesses, the first popularly elected legislature in the New World.
House of Burgesses The House of Burgesses was the first representative legislative body in colonial America. The House of Burgesses first met at Jamestown, then the capital of Virginia, on July 30, 1619.
History of Jamestown In June of 1606, King James I granted a charter to a group of London entrepreneurs, the Virginia Company, to establish a satellite English settlement in the Chesapeake region of North America. By December, 108 settlers sailed from London instructed to settle Virginia, find gold and a water route to the Orient.

Procedural background of this lawsuit in the Supreme Court Decision:
Congress passed the Detainee Treatment Act (DTA) of 2005 which denied alien detainees at Guantanamo the right of habeas corpus. It also gave exclusive jurisdiction to the D.C. Circuit to review Combatant Status Review Tribunal (CSRT) decisions.
In a case similar to this one, the Court held that the DTA could not be applied to cases that were pending before the DTA was enacted. Congress then enacted the Military Commissions Act (MCA) of 2006 to deny jurisdiction for alien detainees that are enemy combatants the right of habeas corpus as well as denying any jurisdiction that would remove the combatants from United States custody.
From that, the Court interpreted that the MCA intended to strip jurisdiction from it and all federal courts with regard to petitioner's application for habeas corpus and that petitioners were not entitled to protections or habeas corpus except as withdrawn under the Suspensions Clause, U.S. Const., and Art. I § 9, cl. 2, that provides for those protections with the exception of rebellion or invasion for public safety.

Walkers and cyclists invited to join 'Treelay' celebration of million trees
Press Release 29th March 2012
Contact: Richard Bunting. 07753 488146; email@example.com
Walkers and cyclists are being invited to take part in Treelay – a sponsored walk and cycle through stunning scenery in the Highlands, organised to celebrate the planting of the Millionth Tree by conservation charity Trees for Life in Scotland's Caledonian Forest.
Treelay begins on 5 May 2012 at Trees for Life's Dundreggan Estate to the west of Loch Ness. The route then links every site in the western Highlands where Trees for Life has carried out forest restoration work over almost a quarter of a century – including such iconic native pinewood areas as Glen Affric and Glen Strathfarrar – before concluding at Dundreggan on 19 May.
The Millionth Tree itself will journey with the walkers and cyclists during Treelay, before being planted at Dundreggan during a day of special events on 20 May.
Participants can sign up for one or more days, with transport provided from and to Inverness. The route consists of 12 individual legs, varying in length from 13km to 43km. Some longer legs will be split over two days with a night in the wilds.
Alan Watson Featherstone, Trees for Life's executive director, said: "To reach a Million Trees is a major milestone in our mission to bring Scotland's Caledonian Forest back from the brink. Treelay will celebrate what has been achieved so far, and will raise funds to help restore the forest to one of the UK's wildest landscapes.
"By linking up some of the best fragments of the original forest, the route also symbolises our long term aim to reconnect the woodlands in these remnants, forming a large expanse of Caledonian Forest for the future."
Outdoor equipment company Páramo has donated a high performance Pájaro jacket worth £270, which will be awarded to the participant who raises the most funds. Anyone raising over £150 will receive an exclusive Millionth Tree t-shirt, with Millionth Tree hoodies for those raising over £200.
Catherine Whitehead, Marketing Manager at Páramo, said: "We are delighted to be supporting Trees for Life's Millionth Tree celebrations. Their hard work certainly deserves celebrating, as does the very positive effect that their efforts have meant for the Caledonian Forest.
"We are very proud with our jacket buyers to have contributed some of those million trees since we started donating saplings back in 2006, with our 'Buy one, get one tree' campaign for the nature lovers' Pájaro Jacket. As Páramo clothing provides comfort outdoors for nature-lovers, field workers and walkers alike, Trees for Life's Treelay is a very relevant event for us to get involved with."
Participants are asked to raise at least £100 to take part. Trees for Life is registered with Just Giving, allowing participants to quickly and easily raise funds. See www.justgiving.com/trees-for-life.
Trees for Life is also celebrating the Millionth Tree through a special lecture tour across Britain, in which Alan Watson Featherstone details the charity's accomplishments so far and provides an inspiring call for support for the planting of the next million trees.
