Hi, I have PSE7 but have used it very little over the years. Largely because I don't understand it very much and haven't really tried to understand it but also I have been happy to keep my images as they are.
However, I am finding more and more clients are expecting one to be able to manipulate the images so I need to learn how to use it but wonder whether I should upgrade and if so, to what?
I use a NikonD70 and D7000
Any ideas please?
The latest version is PSE11 and that works the same way as your version although it has more extras now.
In my opinion, if you've not tried to understand PSE7 then buying a newer version will be no easier.
After a bit of practise they all become clearer to understand and there's a lot of tutorials on EPZ that can help you.
If you are not already "into" post-exposure processing and have not become familiar with PSE, then I would suggest forgetting about it meantime and getting Lightroom 4.
LR will do most of the processing that your clients seem to want - but it will be far easier for you to learn as it is much more "intuitive" than PS or PSE.
But don't take my word for it. Download a free trial from the Adobe website and play with it for 30 days before deciding.

Sky Condos: An Urban Sponge That Opens to the City
The vision of the New Sky Condos by Los Angeles based B+U Architects is to develop a unique spatial experience for each condo unit by, on the one hand, utilizing an L‐shape sectional diagram that maximizes double height spaces and outdoor areas through interlocking the units in plan and in section (an evolution on the Le Corbusier cross section of L'Unite d'Habitation) and simultaneously developing a window typology that aims to dissolve the edges of the window frame creating a unique view to the outside.

would this: http://toj-gallery.com/main.php?g2_itemId=2311 not be the navy/sand tan? idk, maybe it's just the pic, but this kinda makes me lean against it, and kinda want navy/gray instead. I would really kill for a gray/cream, or maybe something similar. Trying hard to decided which colorway I want.

I suppose it is nice, i guess I just want something lighter because i wear my Rogue Territory RK ISC trousers everyday and I don't want to navy overload. Plus I've never spent that much on clothing so I want it to be perfect (feel pretty sad saying that but whatever). I'll probably end up getting navy/tan anyways; as of right now it's my favorite, and it'll still look good with my navy trousers, I'm sure.

I'm liking the bag drew made though, much better use of leather and design looks pretty spot on. I'm 22 but really don't wear a backpack unless I'm bringing laptop + camera when traveling

I'm actually fairly puzzled by the confusion. A leather weekender can go in an overhead bin, it can go in the trunk of a car, it can be used as a doggie bed, and generally the older and more beat up the get, the better they look. Thousands of brands make bags like this; you can find 40 year-old variants in thrift stores - it's a pretty commonplace item. I don't own anything made by filson, but I do own both leather and canvas bags, and I can't really see why "durability" would ever be an issue (remember, we are not talking about the recently previewed helmet tote) with a big that you're not actually using, I don't know, jungle expeditions or something (quick! grab a...filson?). If you want to buy a filson, by all means, buy a filson. I think they're pretty ugly. How is a leather duffle "pointless?"
And just to give razele's point a late-pass, I carry a messenger bag almost every day and I can feel it doing bad things to my body, so alternatives are always welcome. I don't really like backpacks (unwieldy, can't ever find shit), but I don't love the feeling of a messenger back with a laptop, Ipad, notepad, pens, and camera in it either.

So, yeah I have used the 'weekender' bags (one is Porter in nylon, the other Givenchy in leather) - but here's the thing; I never use them otherwise in day to day life, and so I was always wishing for a smaller, lighter bag that would hold my laptop snugger. If I had that, I would've traveled with 1 suitcase and 1 small bag, rather than trying to overstuff a duffle as a carry-on. Part of the weight problem of my 15" MBP is the fact that if it's not held securely then it moves around in the bag and makes it feel even heavier as you constantly adjust to correct it. both bags have shoulder straps but using them meant I'd have a torn up shoulder for days after every flight.
The point of the Helmet Bag is not expressly for travel, it's almost precisely between a tote and a softer, larger brief, and I'd prefer it carried by hand. Shoulder straps ruin the cleanliness of it, and to me, carried as a shoulder bag would look more feminine than carrying by hand like a brief/satchel. The size vanquishes any notions that it's a purse, and it doesn't contain the same design motifs that make man purses man purses.
It's actually way way more versatile than you guys are imagining - aesthetically I'd feel good pairing this with anything from my leather jacket or a wool casual coat, all the way to being laced up and dressed in a suit and tie to most jobs, or yes, as Synthese said, random pair of shoes and some clothes on a casual adventure. Perfect for the guys who do business casual but still care about how they look. Perfect for students who want something more respectable looking than a ratty plebe backpack or shitty nylon laptop bag. It's pretty capacious, would fit any size laptop (in a sleeve) with ease, plus some more stuff. There's also an easy open pocket on the back for newspapers or magazines. It's hard to imagine off the top of your head, but just that back pocket alone takes another 1/2 to full one hide of leather. It's leather over leather (you don't really see inside the pocket but it goes all the way down.)

Guess who this is? Lisa Marie Presley. Many people post this picture under the 'Marilyn Monroe' tag, mistaking Presley for Marilyn. Although she looks very well, I don't think she looks that much like Marilyn, I would never mistake her for MM. Her make-up was done by the late, great Kevyn Aucoin, one of my personal favourite make-up artists, for one of his beauty books. Considering how many people think that this is Marilyn, it looks like he done a good job!

Real Life Renting: Living with Siblings
There's rarely anything about my life that's hip (as evidenced by my use of "hip"). But the rise in sibling roommate situations has The New York Times calling it a growing trend. My brother recently moved into my apartment, so looks like I'm not alone in bunking up with kin.
My roommate & I - a few decades ago
After a string of less-than-stellar Craigslist roommate situations, I was so excited my younger brother's plans for school brought him to Boston in January. There are definite benefits to living with a sibling; you know each other's quirks. You can be completely open and honest about house stuff without worrying about ruining your relationship (living with friends) or dealing with passive-aggressive retaliation (random roommates). Plus, he's taller than me, which comes in handy when I set off the smoke alarms.
He is over 4 years younger than me, so while growing up, we were never really in the same life stage. It's been fun getting to know one other as adults, without spending my time trying to blame things on him or having toys thrown at my face.
Anyone else have experience living with adult siblings?

No, I wouldn't last a month. My brother and I are complete opposites in every way. I love him but can barely tolerate him.
My twin sister and I have lived together since the lease ran out on her first apartment roughly 5 years ago. Its much cheaper for us, and I love having someone around most of the time, and double the wardrobe, but damn if sometimes I don't feel like asking for a "divorce."
I lived with one brother for three years while we were both in grad school. Then two years ago, after several years with various roommates and a few years on my own, I moved in with my sister. She's the better cook and a lot neater than dear brother was.
On the whole, though, my siblings have been the easiest roommates to get along with. They understand that bathrooms need to be cleaned on occasion--and I know they know how to clean them. They can cook. We share a common knowledge on how things are done around the house.
Yes, there are squabbles. But there are many, many more good times. Gin and tonics and the Amazing Race, anyone?
My brother and I tried being roomies when our parents divorced and I was forced to move out of our childhood house. (I was commuting to college and he had just vacated the premises.) Maybe it was the circumstances, but it was just as awful as when we were kids. I love him dearly, but we were not meant to live together. Never again.
My brother has been renting a room from me for 11 months. It was tough in the beginning, because he moved in with me out of desperation (he broke up with his live-in girlfriends suddenly and needed a place to stay). Generally it works out. I know he's not going to break my stuff and he knows I'm not going to charge him an arm and a leg. We've had fights but we've always gotten along really well. Plus he brought his 46" flat screen with him and set it up in the living room. Bonus. The only thing I suggest - don't complain about your sibling-roommate to your parents, ever. Since he's renting from you, you should solve your disagreements by yourselves.
It's great to know someone has your back and will fix something that's broken because they're as invested in your home as you are.
*girlfriend (he only had one, lol)
I've been living with my little brother for 3 years while he finished undergrad. It's fabulous--he loves antiquing, cooking, and my cats, and we're both queer. Alas, he's moving away for grad school in August. Gonna miss him like crazy... I'd live with him forever if I could!
I lived with my older brother for nearly 4 years. It worked out well. As much as we could piss off one another, at the end of the day, we were family so everything worked out.
My younger brother moved in with me last year and I can't really complain too much. I'm never lonely! We've always gotten along pretty well, but now we're actually friends. We still drive each other crazy, but we split rent and have each other to lean on. I love the little fella!
My sister and I have been living together for 5 years and although we argue at times it's definitely better than living alone. 2 years ago my sister had a baby and since that time I have had the pleasure of getting to see my niece grow up I like to call her my half-a-roommate. So never a dull moment here!
We have lived in three apartments in large apartment complexes until this past November when we decided to rent a house.this blog is definitely showing me how to make this house rental a home can't wait to try some of these things here in our home!
Aww, that's cute @Kpg- "half-a-roommate". Ha, well I don't think I could have ever lived with any of my siblings in my 20's and especially not now in my early 30's! So ironic because we are (and have always been) an incredibly close family. But that's the problem- with me being the youngest of the bunch, it would've been like living with my parents! I don't even want to imagine how badly my dating life would've turned out. Yikes. Well the natural progression for us seemed to be college, marriage and then children so there was never an opportunity for any one of us to become roommates at any point in our adulthood.
I think living with my brother would quite possibly result in homicide. We have a MUCH better relationship ever since we stopped living at home together!
I don't think this would work well for my brother and me, but we did live 4 blocks from each other for a few years and that was a great situation. We were just close enough to be able to drop in for a cup of coffee or dinner.
I lived with my sister and her partner for 18 months. At one point, the partner had to referee our arguments. Still, they were doing me a favor when I moved out to Seattle without a job. They has to finally tell me to stopping baking late at might because the smell was waking them up. I think the way for sibs to be good housemates is to pretend you are housemates first and have all the discussions about food, personal preferences, responsibilities AND to try not to fall into the habits of your childhood...no care-taking, ancient stories and teasing about long ago stuff, no trash-talking the rest of the family.
Nope...no roommates ever again...family, friend or stranger. I am temporarily sharing an apt with my sister and i would never do it again.
my siblings live together, they're 2 yrs apart.. they've always been close and it works really well for them. me on the other hand... I'm much older, so nope, wouldn't work out. I'd be parenting and they'd be rebelling... DISASTER!
Im keen to see the interior style incorporating both siblings... thats what I thought id be seeing here... maybe later?
I love this post! and all of the comments! thanks so much! My little brother and I are really close and I have been considering the possibility of him living with me. I think this helped me decide.
My brother and I have been living together going on 3 years now. We first decided to live together when we both got into graduate school in Boston. Much like the author, we are also four years apart (he's older)--so we grew up separately from elementary school forward, having separate friends, and separate high school and undergraduate experiences.
It has been amazing living together as adults. We share the same background, and love knowing that we always have a built in travel buddy, someone to have dinner with, and someone who is as invested in the living space and lifestyle as you are. Because we are family, we are each willing to go the extra mile for the other, unlike with any other roommate. We help each other, laugh constantly, and are always getting into fun and crazy adventures. We often joke that we are "power siblings" and that we have developed a twin language--despite our being four years apart in age.
Together we have build furniture, explored museums, toured chocolate factories, had many delicious dinners, seen parades, taken boat trips, been up and down New England by plane, train, and automobile, and are doing it all over again in the Midwest.
Living with a sibling, especially one as awesome as my brother, is the way to go.
I could live with my sister, if needed. I couldn't live with my brother. But I'd rather not live with either of them. In fact, I don't think that I want to live with anyone ever again.
Very happy to go on vacations with my sister and we have a great time together but I don't think I'm programmed to live with another human being.
My 4-year-younger sister and then boyfriend lived with me when I first bought my house. I loved it. She hated it. I was too messy and hadn't quite gotten the domestic thing down. I missed them terribly after they got married and moved out.
Now my 18-year-younger sister lives with me. We both enjoy it for the most part but she's so young and so much younger than I am that I end up doing more parenting than either of us want. Looking forward to pushing her out of the nest only because she needs growth. I'd gladly take her back in 5 years. She's a great roommate.
My sister and I have shared two apartments together as adults (after years of sharing a bedroom growing up). She's almost 6 years younger than I am, and we are very different, but we make excellent room mates. I still regret giving in to my desire to live alone and breaking up that union, and it's been years!
I'm moving to San Francisco in August to live with my 6-years-older sister. She moved out when I was 12 and now I'm 25. I actually sought out this situation because I miss her so much! I'm a little nervous about us not getting along all the time, but, eh, it can't be worse than living with our mother! haaaaaa but seriously...
It's gonna be great to have an activities friend who's into the same stupid things as me. And I won't have to worry about ruining our relationship if I have to yell at her.
I can't stand roommates...I need my space. I enjoy living on my own because I can do my laundry whenever I need to, relax and do as I please when I want to. My sister has lived with me right after college and i try to help her out, although she lived rent free, used my car to get around, was insured to drive my vehicles, and does as she pleased. I started to task her to take my kids to and from school and wherever they needed to be when I am at work and I was accused of slaving her around so after the spat we had she moved out the very next day to mom and dad's. a couple of years later she is right back in my place still rent free, this time i sold my extra vehicle in which she did not offer to buy from me and now is required to take pubkic transportation. I feel I am being taken advantage of and must say I hate waiting in line to do my own laundry or use my own bathroom or being asked what we are going to do next every time it's the weekend. I can only tolerate my minor kids and my significant other in my household. All others I need to miss to be around them. Otherwise I get easily annoyed.
My younger brother (3 year diff) moved in with me almost 6 years ago. For the foirst few years, but now I am fed up because he doesn't pay rent, doesn't help out much, and generally is a flake. On one hand, I can trust him not to destroy anything or leave rotten food out. On the other, he plays video games, sleeps alot, and claims that his few college classes consume most of his time (of course, I usually find him reading comics on the internet whenever I go to see him about anything). Talking doesn't fix anything, he is acting like a teenager--despite being twice the age for that.
I am terribly irate because I have to work, then I come home and clean up after him. It is also very annoying because he wants to follow me whenever I go do something (which usually means I end up paying for two). He graduates soon, and if he doesn't move out on his own, I am going to take a job elsewhere and force him to do something with himself.
Whoops...lost a bit of content there (sorry). The first few years were fine...but it is the past few years that have been a problem.
I'm living with my younger sister and we been fighting a lot. I've moved to her house on April 29, 2011. And I am somewhat, okay. Very Grateful that she was here when needed. I also returned kind and helped here when sh was sick and other items too but I see its time to go.
I would never live with a sibling again tbh. In fact I don't want a roomy at all - I'd prefer to have my own space where I can do my laundry at whatever time of day I like, cook my food when I like and have a nice clean and tidy kitchen/bathroom without someone leaving gross stuff around constantly.
I share a house with my Mom and older sister - I'm in my 20's but my job doesn't pay enough to leave home. I'm hoping by this time next year I'll have my own place even if it's tiny - I just need my own place.
My Mom is pretty cool to live with except for the occasional sassyness but the problem is my older sister who acts like she owns me ''do this, do that'' - when she never lifts a finger herself. She seems to think that because she is older she can order me around and if I bite back she flys into a rage so I have to walk on eggshells. I keep out of her way most days. But I should feel relaxed in my own home. What's crazy is that she suggested we move out of Mom's place and get an apartment together. OMG she can't even see how crazy that is. NEVER IN A MILLION YEARS.
Depending on the outcome of a job interview I went to last week, I may or may not be moving to Minneapolis to live with my brother and his fiance next weekend.
Nobody in my family is terribly well off, and I've had absolutely terrible luck with roommates throughout college (recent grad, stuck back at home with the parents up until now). My brother, though- he and I are extremely similar, with similar interests and behaviors, and we aren't afraid to just tell each other if there's a problem. It would also be slightly cheaper to live with him than trying to get an apartment in the city.
The drawbacks- I would also be living with his fiance, who is a very nice person but doesn't really know how to communicate with me. She's overly afraid of stepping on my toes or hurting my feelings, and nothing I've said has eased the tension that springs up the moment we're in the same room together. Also, she and my brother are much messier than I could put up with in my home, so I imagine I have a lot of cleaning to look forward to if/when I move in.
Finally, while cheaper than living alone, it isn't THAT much cheaper. I would be paying ~$4oo a month for a small bedroom in their townhouse (barely big enough for a full size bed and a desk), plus electric, plus groceries. On my income, I qualify for a subsidized apartment a 10 minute bike ride from work for $460 a month, plus electric, plus groceries, plus internet. The most rent I can reasonably afford is $560, so it would be very doable to live alone... Just not necessarily the most comfortable in the ~200 or so square feet I would have to live in. Good thing I don't own much furniture.
If I do end up moving in with the bro, I imagine I will be looking for my own place from the get-go. I love my bro, and I like his fiance, but unless they both get a little bit neater (washing dishes more than once a week would be a good start!), or the rent gets a little bit cheaper, I don't know how long I could put up with living with them!

Movie News
Ryan Gosling Will Catch A Monster With Christina Hendricks!
Nordling here.
Of all the projects for Ryan Gosling to be involved with, a self-described "fantasy noir" doesn't come close to what I expected. Ryan Gosling's first directed film will be called HOW TO CATCH A MONSTER, and it will star Christina Hendricks as a young mother who must travel into a "dark fantasy underworld while her teenage son discovers a secret road into an underwater town," according to Variety.
Hey, your guess is as good as mine. I didn't expect Gosling's directorial debut to be as weird or as off-the-mainstream as this, but he's gotten producers Marc Platt and Adam Seigel involved, so there must be something to it. I do appreciate Gosling diving into more genre material like this as his first go-round in the director's chair and I have no idea what his visual sense is like. We may have a fledgling Tim Burton here. We'll all see soon enough.

Is it weird that I have a crush on Hendricks ONLY on Mad Men.
by Quake II
I think she looks fantastic in the period clothing she wears with the hair and makeup but off the show she doesn't do anything for me. I didn't find her attractive in Drive but this project is intriguing. Gosling was amazing in The Believer and Blue Valentine but his other roles didn't challenge him much. I love Drive as a film but Gosling barely speaks.

re: bouncy x....I'm with ya.
by BigMick
Not to let my head get too big, I'm not from the actual hometown of Ryan Gosling, but I do live in the same city as his mother (our parents used to work together). I ran into him a few times back in the day circa his Young Hercules days, and just recently as well when he was home visiting with Eva Mendes. Talk about a random drop-in at the downtown Starbucks. I think it's amazing to see him gaining the kind of star power he's achieved in the past few years. I've liked all of his work, for me especially I think he was great in Crazy, Stupid, Love. It's kind of a corny movie, but he owned it in that. This project seems a little out of left field, but whatever, I'll still go see it.

Hey Girl
by Rick
Ryan Gosling should direct a movie starring Hendricks and Kate Upton as rival female boxers struggling to make it in a man's world. He can co-star as the lovable but streetwise kid who helps them all understand the meaning of love and world peace.

Gosslings flicks

He is a great actor, but it's because of his work in movies like "Half Nelson" and "Lars and the Real Girl" that sets him apart from the rest of the mouth breathers in Hollywood. He plays 'broken' really well.

raptor_kingofthejews, miwaku: ok so think about this for a different perspective. I saw drive
by UltraTron
on my friend's shitty little tv and was like- eh..sallright. Then I watched it in my 200 inch theater that's won the absolute sound award for best theater several years running. Ok so Drive is a musical. Some of the intent is in the songs and music. Some of the story is told through the music. Now you could argue that it isn't but drive won the best sound academy award and I think that's partly why. Ok so here's another thing that happened with this sallright film. I upgraded some gear and was testing the system over and over with drive and I just.. Well it's weird but I fell in love with it like it was part of my family. Watching scenes over and over while testing just made me appreciate it more. The music is telling you he's the knight. He's the hero. True blue. That's the point of the money being left. Last bastion of chivalry. There's something about that boy.
Aug. 29, 2012, 5:18 p.m. CST
But I still think gosling has limits and was used perfectly in drive. He was completely out of his depth in that Hopkins movie.

by kindofabigdeal
Aug. 29, 2012, 5:55 p.m. CST
Again the long staring scenes are great because the atmosphere is thick and nuanced with this thing called
by UltraTron
staggering sound design. Every thought in these characters' heads is there. The movie is telling you things with every subtle gesture. As someone with a better theater than any in Los Angeles I can tell you that movies suck unless you are in a heavenly envelope of a theater. I suffer all of your opinions on every movie so I know that there's opinions and then there's opinions. My opinion is the same as the director who edited the shit with the sound engineer at Skywalker sound. The way they heard it and the way it affected them. The intent they understood when they made it.
Aug. 29, 2012, 6:01 p.m. CST
If I don't give movies the full treatment in my theater then I end up rating them wrong and not giving them their due. You can't evaluate a true crafted

Aug. 29, 2012, 6:59 p.m. CST
If he doesn't include a sex scene involving Hendricks, then his first movie is already an epic fail.
by TopHat
Seriously, more actresses like Hendricks need to do more nude/sex scenes. The majority of nude/sex scenes done now are by skinny actresses (or, at least, they're skinny body doubles...). This depicts an entirely unrealistic idea of the female form to young men all across the world. To have beautiful, voluptuous women like Hendricks or Kat Dennings getting nude and/or having graphic sex, would show men everywhere what a real woman provides. Eating disorders will vanish within a year; young women everywhere would try to follow the new hourglass standard. Nigella Lawson would become a sensation, akin only to Oprah. We can do this. Let's change the world. *Paid for by the campaign of I-Want-To-See-Christina-Hendricks-Getting-Smashed-From-Behind

Me & Christina
by Mosquito March
Several years ago, before Mad Men was even on the air, I was at a sci-fi convention in Orlando. I was waiting in a line to meet somebody and talking to my brother, and out of the corner of my eye I saw a lady stumble. I turned quickly and grabbed her around her middle as she fell, and when I pulled her back up on her feet, she was facing me with her chest pressed against me. She laughed and said "I'm such a klutz - thank you!" I let go, and she walked off, and my brother said, "Dude, that was the hot thief chick from 'Firefly'". And, that's the story of my physical contact with Christina Hendricks's gorgeous, giant breasts.
Aug. 29, 2012, 9:24 p.m. CST
I hope he directs her to take her clothes off, other than that...
by Jaka

Mob movie.
by Robbiemc9
Ryan can Gossle my monster any day. I kind of liked Drive. Loved the style and imagary but became dissapointed when it just decended into another boring violent mob movie. I thought the concept would be him hired to do a whole different type of drive jobs. Kind of like all short movies weaved together. But really another mob movie? now about Ryan Gossling my monster.....

I hated Drive too miwaku, you are not alone!
by twogunjames
But I liked it the first time when it was called "The Driver" and starred Ryan O'Neill. I know, not exactly the same movie, but damn close enough to be mentioned. I thought Drive had a few moments here and there but Gosling didn't bring much to the table, making a comedian a sociopath is no big innovation, and Ron Perlman was wasted in his role.
Aug. 30, 2012, 11:58 a.m. CST

by Santiago Charboneau
You all are mongrels who lack film sensibility enough to recognize an instant classic when it hits the screen! Gosling is going to be (already is) one of those actors who is consistently varied, yet always brings something of value to the screen. And Cristina Hendricks isn't that hot.

Drive should have just been called 'Stare'
by Han Cholo
That's all he did for the whole movie, except taking his girl on driving dates to the desert... where he stared at her the whole time.

I'm telling you there's reams of dialogue in those stares. You missed it. You were busy being smarter than the director.

Drive..I was so ready to hate it
by kstewandthecuntsman
But damn, did I love that movie. I recommend it to any friend I can, BUT.. I tell them that they may find it...slow. Not a lot of dialogue. And that is exactly why I loved it so much. The silences. The random, but necessary violence. The soundtrack, okay, maybe kind of 80s cheese, but so very right for the film. It made me really like Gosling, and really really like Mulligan. And Albert Brooks was robbed of a supporting actor nod. Can't stress enough how much I was never even going to bother watching it. So glad I did. Does it have some flaws? Sure. Most films do. But Drive and Finchers GWTDT were both pleasant surprises, for me anyway.

@Mr pissed off and bitter
by albert comin
I don't think you payed much attention when you watched "Drive". He didn't took the girl on a date to the desert, it was in the Los Angeles River. You can't tear down a movie if you didn't payed it much attention, you know? That's what i think. And as for those stares you mention, those very talented actors told more with stares then most movies can do with reams of dialogues.
Aug. 31, 2012, 4:45 a.m. CST
@Mr kstewandthecuntsman
by albert comin
Who could had guessed that such a lovable puppy dog like albert Brooks could play such a dangerous evil badass? And do it so utterly convincing? "Drive" makes it look obvious, but nobody had though of it before. And you forgot to mention Bryan Cranston. The Cranston cannot go unmentioned! And for my money, despite a small role, Oscar Isaac quite effective and even sympathetic as the doom husband. And how can we forgot the mighty Ron Perlman? The Perlman always make everything better.

Wasn't there an Annette Benning movie about an underwater town?

@Mr tangcameo
by albert comin
No, you are remembering it correctly. It also starred Robert Downey Jr, and it was directed by Neil Jordan. And if memory serves, the score was composed by Ellio Goldenthal, and was quite good. The movie itself was pretty good, never understood why it got the bashing it got back in the day.

But power without control is useless, thereby the KTM 990 is also able to deal great with twisty roads thanks to its multi-adjustable high-spec WP suspension. The sporty mix also contains a set of front twin-disc brakes with radially mounted four-piston brake calipers and rear single-disc brakes with two-piston brake calipers. For increased performances the disc brakes are combined with an ABS (antilock brake system).
Hit the jump for more information on the KTM 990 SM R.
A state-of-the-art V2 engine with electronic injection and impressive punch, a perfectly balanced chassis, a complete package of high-quality components: the 990 SM R is the most radical twin-cylinder Supermoto on the market. – and also one of the safest thanks to the superb Bosch 9M+‑ABS. All the more astounding that it is just as much fun in the urban jungle as it is ticking off passes and out on the racetrack. One of the most dynamic, yet at the same time versatile machines, not only in the Supermoto segment.
The KTM 990 SM R's fuel tank in conjunction with the elongated seat provide the rider with excellent contact points and maximum freedom of movement for hitting the gas with commitment. The tapered, ideally angled aluminium handlebar aids perfect vehicle control.
The recipe for the KTM 990 SM R is based not least on the very finest ingredients, which also delight the eye of the beholder. Take, for example, the powder-coated frame, radial Brembo® brake callipers or the high-quality suspension components from WP Suspension.
The 990 SM R's water-cooled V-engine with 85 kW (114 hp) sets the benchmark for free-revving twins. Its intelligent design principle with multi-function balancer shaft makes it one of the lightest and most compact V2s in its class. The engine impresses with explosive, spontaneous throttle response.
Alongside the optimum combustion chamber design, the major factors behind the outstanding performance of the 990 SM R's V-twin with 75° cylinder angle are the state-of-the-art four-valve cylinder heads, each with flow-optimised ducts and two overhead camshafts.
Particularly lightweight pistons and connecting rods bestow the 2013 990 SM R's V2 engine with reduced reciprocated weight and hence with decidedly spontaneous responsiveness, underlining its extremely sporty engine characteristics.
The electronic Keihin engine management system regulates the modern fuel injection system on the 990 SM R, focussing on optimum behaviour under partial load and spontaneous responsiveness. In this way, KTM engineers were able to harmonise raw power with optimum rideability.
The KTM 990 SM R's tubular space frame made from thin-walled chrome-molybdenum steel tubing with a bolted-on, light alloy subframe only weighs 9.5 kg, yet it impresses with exemplary torsional stiffness. The 575 mm swingarm with conical profiles contributes plenty of mechanical grip.
Thanks to multiple setting options, the upside-down telescopic fork and the directly connected shock absorber from WP Suspension allow optimum individual adjustment of the chassis to suit riding style, track and load.
More than adequate deceleration is ensured on the 990 SM R by Brembo® brakes with the very finest components. At the front wheel, two radially-mounted four-piston brake callipers bite hard into floating 305 mm discs at the command of the radial master cylinder. So that braking works perfectly even in difficult conditions, a Bosch 9M+‑ABS intervenes in borderline cases to prevent the front wheel from blocking or an unintentional endo. But don't worry, you only notice the ABS when things get really too hot to handle. Until then, you can control your deceleration with customary, racing precision.
The disconnectable dual-circuit ABS system developed in cooperation with Bosch offers excellent protection against over-braking, while maintaining the full effect and perfect feedback of a genuine sports brake thanks to very fine sensors. Weighing no more than one kilogramme, the ABS system therefore allows extremely sporty braking. And sets standards in the prevention of unintentional endos.

Vampires: More Real Than You Think
By Micara Link
Staff Writer
I was recently asked if I have heard of "psychic vampires" and can one hurt me?"
Ah, yes. Good ol' psychic vampires. I have heard of them, experienced them, and would love to share with you what I've learned. First of all, I would like to note that I am not an expert on this subject by any means. I actually have a lot of questions about this topic, but I do know some information because I've been "drained" by a few psychic vampires in my life and have needed to learn what to do and how to affectively work with them.
As much as we'd love to paint our imaginations with the picture of the seductive, powerful, and immortal vampires we've come to know in Twilight, True Blood, and Dracula, these vampires are not the, "I-vant-to-suck-your-blood" type of vampires but the, "I-vant-to-suck-your-energy" type.
Psychic vampires or energy vampires are very real. Now before you stop reading because you can't believe that something like this exists, let me explain. The terms psychic vampire and energy vampire are terms used for someone who takes your energy away from you or brings your energy down. Basically, the term vampire means "to feed off of life force." An energy vampire is an actual human being, not an inhuman creature. They are everywhere: they could be friends, family members, or even you.
You do not need to be afraid of them, they cannot hurt you. Awareness and education is enough to keep you "safe." Reading this article will help you become more aware of the signs and symptoms of your energy being taken by an energy vampire, what you can do to not allow them to feed off of you, and possibly awaken to the fact that you or someone who is close to you is one. To be an energy vampire is not a "bad" thing. The person is not evil or out to get you. It's just who they are and how they operate. They were born that way.
Basically, a psychic vampire is someone who has a very unique interaction with the energy around them. Often times, they are very psychic and aware of other worlds or dimensions. They are very sensitive to energy around them and can sense energy from objects and people. The psychic vampire is someone who has a lack of their own natural energy source. In order to maintain their energy, they need to draw off an outside source's life force energy, such as another person. Usually, a psychic vampire does not know that they are one. It is an instinctual habit to feed off of others.
For the unaware energy vampires, things can get a little out of hand. They tend to thrown their energy around everywhere and onto everyone, taking and feeding off of multiple people, threatening people, and they might not understand why people react to them in a strange or negative way. It is a positive thing for vampires to become aware of themselves so they can learn to control their energy and not feed until they drain someone dry. Some vampires can learn to take small amounts of energy from the people around them so they are able to continue being sustained while not completely draining those around them. This is a task that mature and aware psychic vampires are able to learn that helps them have a more normal interaction with the energy and people around them.
Many psychic vampires are very manipulative, crave attention, and can easily affect your emotional state. When your emotions are high and intense, the vampires receive more energy from you, which of course, they love. If a vampire does not take in energy of other people, they get sick, so they will do what they need to do in order to get the energy.
Have you ever been with someone, a friend or family member, and felt worse when you left them? Maybe you entered into a conversation or meeting with positive, high energy, and left feeling low, drained, and uneasy? That is an example of an energy vampire. Another good note is to realize if you are feeling worse and the other person is feeling better. They feel better because they took your energy! I also "test" myself when it comes to situations, classes, or events. I notice if my energy goes down or up when thinking about partaking. I know, that if my energy goes down, I should not agree to do it.
Some signs and symptoms of your energy being taken are: feeling tired, uneasy, or lethargic. Literally, feeling drained physically and emotionally. Headaches, dizziness, feeling depressed, or sensing "bad" vibes, as well as a general overall worse feeling are a few other signs. Also, notice how you react to the person. Are you eager to be with them again? Or do you avoid them? Your avoidance could be your intuition nudging you to stay away from them because a part of you knows they want to feed off of you. It is a little difficult to create a solid list of symptoms because everyone experiences it differently, but the most common symptom is feeling energetically drained.
To protect yourself or shield yourself from allowing energy vampires to freely take your energy away from you, you can do a few things. One is to set the intention that no one can take your energy without your permission. Two, imagine a bubble of light around you. Some people prefer blue, while others like white, or gold. It's really up to you. Whatever color of energy you like to feel around yourself, put that up and affirm that this energy bubble is shielding out anyone who might be trying to influence your energy field. Third, ask your spirit guides and angels to protect and shield you. Get creative. However you imagine shielding yourself is perfect. As long as you believe it works, it will.
Besides energetically shielding yourself, you can simply stay away from the people who take your energy. Set boundaries and know that you are setting these boundaries out of self-love. It is your responsibility to take care of yourself and this is just another way to do it.
Now, if you happen to think that you might be a psychic vampire, it is best for you to learn to control your energy. It might be hard at first, but it's just because it's new and takes some self-control, self-knowledge, and self-examination. You can learn to control it and you will experience more positive relationships and social interactions because of it.
To learn more about psychic vampires, "The Psychic Vampire Codex" by Michelle Belanger is a recommended resource. I have not read it, but I know that she is a professional advocate and self-proclaimed psychic vampire who helps bring light onto this subject.

Devotional // 4.30.2012 | "Put On the New Nature"
Source: Bob Spangler, First Things First (a Morning Watch devotional book)
My Egypt
As part of my morning devotional this morning, I read Matthew 2 and read about how God gave Joseph specific instructions to follow in order to keep Jesus safe and alive. When King Herod saw that he had been mocked by the wise men, he was furious and decided to kill all the children in Bethlehem that were two years old and younger. By the time Herod's soldiers came to kill the children, Joseph, Mary and the baby Jesus had already left for Egypt.
They were safe because they heeded God's instructions.
This is such a powerful testimony! It is definitely worth listening to! God is real and is able to deliver us from the bondage of our painful past. I praise God for the power of this young man's testimony.

Here's the story that aired on Morning Edition today, including expert analysis of the James O'Keefe video that led to the NPR resignations last week. My two cents: nasty and naughty Mr. O'Keefe, certainly not adhering to the journalistic precepts that guide the public radio industry. Still, I think Mr. Schiller went too far in expressing personal political opinions in an official NPR business meeting.
Here's the link to the very solid story that aired earlier today.

3-Story Venue Planned For 2nd Avenue South
NASHVILLE, Tenn. – A three-story venue has been planned for 2nd Avenue and Broadway in downtown Nashville.
The plans announced Monday by Principal Broker Brandon Kuvara with C. B. Ragland Company call for an approximately 20,000 square foot building at 120 2nd Avenue South. The first two floors would offer approximately 7,500 square feet each, with the third offering 5,200 square feet and a rooftop deck overlooking Riverfront, LP Field, and the new amphitheater set to be built on 1st Avenue South.
"We have an opportunity to tailor this building to the right tenant, which we envision as a three-story entertainment destination that fits the historic neighborhood perfectly, but also offers the modern systems and conveniences to the tenant," Kuvara said. "You couldn't ask for a better location or venue, and with all of the recent development in the area and the buzz around downtown Nashville, the timing is right."
The building could become home to retails and restaurants, or music halls and other entertainment venues. Another option would be that one tenant uses the entire space.
"We've designed the building to accommodate a number of concepts, but the idea is to have six-foot windows that open up to the river on one side, Broadway on another and Second Avenue on the third front," he said. "The elevator and stair systems were designed to make sense for any of these options, along with the latest electrical, plumbing and other engineered systems that are designed for practicality and efficiency, including the potential for a green roof. We haven't named the building yet because we want the future tenants to be a part of honing that identity."
The lot was said to be one of the largest in the Broadway Historic District at 80 feet wide. Plans call for the building to nod to history through its architecture, 20-foot ceilings and all-brick construction. The historic structure that was located on this property burned in the mid1980s.

it says the shell is 100% polyester and the lining has 100% nylon so im guessing the little bit of lining is the insulation.

About Us
What is Green Baby Elephant?
Green Baby Elephant began in 2010 after the birth of my second baby. I started Green Baby Elephant to be a source for cloth diapers and natural baby products in my community, Tucson, AZ. Green Baby Elephant is a home-based, online business, but don't think that I sit at home surrounded by all of the wonderful soft diapers that I stock. I do in home consults, cloth diaper parties, and attend community events. Green Baby Elephant is here to make cloth diapering easy for today's busy families. Forget spending hours upon hours online reading reviews & watching videos. Schedule your consult or diaper party & begin diapering your little one. Once you see modern cloth diapers in person, you'll realize how easy it is to ditch the disposable habit.
Who is Green Baby Elephant?
Green Baby Elephant is run by a dedicated Mama to 3 busy boys. I have over 5 {and counting} years of cumulative cloth diapering experience to share with you! My decision to cloth diaper my babies wasn't based on the usual motivators: money, environment, and health benefits. Cloth diapering my second baby was completely unintentional. My thoughts on cloth diapers were limited to pins, prefolds, & plastic pants. I was so sure that this is what cloth diapers was all about that I never even googled cloth diapers until I saw them for the first time at my baby shower. I was given a set of cloth diapers by my mom at a {disposable} diaper shower held in honor of my second son's birth. Even after receiving cloth diapers as a gift I was on the fence about using them. You could even say I was scared or intimidated about using cloth diapers. I couldn't imagine what do to with the poo. The poo was my biggest hang up. So the brand new diapers sat on my laundry room floor for a month before my sister took the initiative and washed them without telling me. After seeing how cute my son looked in his fluffy diaper, I was hooked. His diaper rash quickly cleared up. We didn't need to use any crazy strong diaper rash ointments. We also didn't live in fear of diaper blow-outs any longer. The kind of blow outs that go out the legs and up the back, especially while sitting in the car seat! I also enjoyed washing his diapers. For some reason I found it to be very satisfying to wash and hang out clean diapers. And that feeling is still with me even while diapering my 3rd and most recent baby. While researching cloth diapers, I noticed that there wasn't a resource in Tucson. I spent countless hours reading blogs, websites, and watching YouTube videos while searching for the 'perfect' cloth diaper. I have tried A LOT of diapers. Some I like and they are stocked in the shop and some I didn't like. I started Green Baby Elephant to be a cloth diaper resource for moms. Green Baby Elephant is the alternative to spending hours online researching cloth diapers. I offer in-home consultations, diaper parties with mama friends, and I frequently vend at different public events. Let Green Baby Elephant help you with cloth diapering your little one. Thank you for your support!

Is It Legal To Own And Raise A Raccoon In The Usa?
found a baby raccoon and have been raising it for like 4 weeks. it is about 7 weeks old now. I got it when its eyes were open. The mom was killed and the people (friends of mine) found the baby and felt bad, and wanted me to raise it. It's eyes are open now, and stuff and i feed it correctly and have researched how to feed it and care for it. Some sites say I can raie it and release it, some say it is a fine to own one and must turn it in. I would release it into the wild once i raised it and taught it to hunt and stuff. thanks

who cares if it's illegal? you saved that animal's life, so you deserve to look after it, everyone else would of most likely ran over it or left it to die. raccoons are natural to live in the us i think so it's not like it's endangered? but if it is SO WHAT, aslong as your looking after it correctly and you want to keep it for yourself then i would consider getting a license for it. if i were you, i would keep it, you give it all the love and it wouldn't want to leave you anyway, and it just makes you more cool that you have a different pet to everyone else. :D
