Fruit & Flowers at Coqui's Hideaway
Some of many the joys of visiting a tropical island include savoring the local fresh fruit and enjoying the beautiful tropical flowers in bloom. Here at Coqui's Hideaway, we provide an opportunity for our guests to do both.
We have many different kinds of tropical fruit growing on our property, and we encourage you to wander out into the yard and help yourself to ripe fresh fruit. Imagine picking your own grapefruit or oranges for breakfast or a snack. Or getting an avocado fresh from the tree for guacamole or sliced up in a salad. Yummy!
We are constantly planting more fragrant and flowering tropical plants around the property. We invite you to stroll around the yard and take pleasure in the plants that grow in our tropical rainforest environment.
The tables below will give you an approximate idea of what fruit will be ripe and which flowers will be in bloom during your visit. Hopefully, Mother Nature will take a look at this page too!
Some of the plant names in the tables below are clickable. Clicking on those links will bring up a small gallery of photos, showing the plant, it's flowers and/or fruit (as appropriate).

Food Tribunal 5 April 2012 at The Hague
Ever since Carolyn Steel's international bestseller Hungry City also conquered the Netherlands, food is no longer a subject reserved for experts. Food for the City goes a step further and presents 13 visions from across the world on the future of food in the city in the year 2050. In addition, a timeline from 2050 BCE to 2050 CE and a richly varied pictorial essay offer the reader an intriguing look at a subject that may be hip and hot now, but has in fact occupied people for millennia.
The activist, the industrialist, the philosopher, the chef, the architect and the farmer, among others, offer their view of the future of food for the city.

OAK HILL (WVVA) - An Oak Hill physician is facing drug charges after being accused of providing prescription drugs to female patients in exchange for sexual favors.
Police arrested 73-year-old Dr. Oscar Gosien Friday and charged him with felony offenses of delivery of a controlled substance and conspiracy to commit a felony.
Gosien has been accused in numerous statements obtained by investigators of trading prescription medications to female patients for sexual favors, according to Fayette County Sheriff Steve Kessler.
"We have been receiving complaints about Dr. Gosien for a long time," Fayette County Sheriff Steve Kessler said.
Kessler also says that pills prescribed by Gosien have been linked to several overdose deaths in the county over recent years.
Gosien's secretary at his Lamplighter Road office, Kathy Treadway, 54, also faces charges of delivery of a controlled substance and conspiracy to commit a felony.
Police say additional charges are expected to follow.
The two have yet to be arraigned. The case remains under investigation.

She began quietly. "We are told, sir, that you manage a company that makes good ice cream."A hat tip to TeacherKen who adds insightful commentary on this story.
I smugly replied, "Best ice cream in America, Ma'am."
"How nice," she said. "Is it rich and smooth?"
"Sixteen percent butterfat," I crowed.
"Premium ingredients?" she inquired.
"Super-premium! Nothing but Triple A." I was on a roll. I never saw the next line coming.
"Mr. Vollmer," she said, leaning forward with a wicked eyebrow raised to the sky, "when you are standing on your receiving dock and you see an inferior shipment of blueberries arrive, what do you do?"
In the silence of that room, I could hear the trap snap. I knew I was dead meat, but I wasn't going to lie.
"I send them back."
"That's right!" she barked, "and we can never send back our blueberries. We take them big, small, rich, poor, gifted, exceptional, abused, frightened, confident, homeless, rude, and brilliant. We take them with ADHD, junior rheumatoid arthritis, and English as their second language. We take them all! Every one! And that, Mr. Vollmer, is why it's not a business. It's school!"
In an explosion, all 290 teachers, principals, bus drivers, aides, custodians and secretaries jumped to their feet and yelled, "Yeah! Blueberries! Blueberries!"
And so began my long transformation.

It not differing on sales
There is no only any replacement in order that known methods of sales instead of reconsidering them as a whole. And it is true irrespective of, in what industry you work. For example, the real murderer of an impulse - when the seller will not conclude the bargain because they do not do that one last control call or visit of the client. To use football analogy, it resembles inability of teams to win from a red zone - the last 20 yards on areas just before a protection zone. If the team conducts a sphere consistently down to a red zone, but then does not win, there was such effort spent for nothing. It not differing on sales. Instead of leaving strategy of sales which receive you down area so that you could jump on some winning party on elections of a smooth tendency, you would be wiser simply to change your approach a little so that you actually won more. If your current methods of sales receive you down area, everything is possible that you should make, add some more control calls and visits that with an increment to conclude more transactions. The best recommendation which I can make to any seller, consists in remaining concentrated to possibilities, which you have near at hand and work to increase your current processes, finally to conclude more transactions. The more you remain concentrated to prospects, you have, the it is less youll to be distracted by the last tendency.
Allow the competitor to fall in love with a new tendency. Allow the competitor to pursue after fleeting possibility. When they do it, they leave you with a large number of possibilities actually to make more sales.

The members of the Washington women's gymnastics team knew they would need senior Lauren Rogers healthy for the UW to be successful this season. Friday night she proved why.
Rogers won the all-around title with a score of 39.025 in her first meet at full capacity after undergoing ankle surgery during the summer, leading the Huskies to a team victory over No. 17 California, UC Davis, and Illinois-Chicago in their home opener. She had previously been unable to compete on floor due to the injury.
"It just felt really good to get back out there on floor after the injury," Rogers said. "What we all did in practice really showed in this meet."
The Huskies were solid across the board, posting a team score of 194.800 — more than a full point higher than their season-opening loss at Minnesota. The UW did not count a fall throughout the meet, jumping out to an early lead over Cal in the first rotation that they never relinquished. The Golden Bears finished second with a score of 194.125, UC Davis in third with a 193.625, and Illinois-Chicago in fourth with a 191.350.
"I was more surprised with the way we came out last week than the way we came out strong tonight," head coach Joanne Bowers said. "We went really hard in practice this week and knew we could come out this way."
The UW saw the most improvement on bars, scoring 48.850 after a 48.100 last meet. The Huskies didn't have to count a score lower than 9.725 in the rotation, with Rogers and sophomore Jackie McCartin posting a pair of 9.8s.
"No matter what happens before, you still need to go out and hit your rotation," Rogers said. "But it was definitely nice to keep feeding off each other's energy during the rotation."
Sophomore McKenzie Fechter suffered a fall on her bars routine, which her team didn't have to count, but bounced back immediately to lead off the UW's turn on balance beam with a 9.750. Fechter's routine was the first of a solid Husky beam rotation for the second straight week.
McCartin won the event, scoring a 9.775.
"I hit my beam rotation in practice every day," Fechter said. "I know my team had my back on bars, and I wanted to show that I had their back during beam."
The UW closed out the meet with a few mistakes during its floor routine, including an uncharacteristic fall from junior Aliza Vaccher. The team score of 48.275 was the lowest of any rotation on the night, but senior Paige Bixler ended any chance of Cal overtaking the UW by posting a 9.825 to win the event.
Despite the huge improvement in the week after their first meet, Bowers and the Huskies are looking for more improvement heading into the huge Metroplex Challenge in Fort Worth, Texas, next Saturday.
The meet features three teams currently ranked in the top 10 nationally. The UW knows a score of at least 195.000 will be necessary even to be competitive with the likes of Oklahoma, LSU, and Georgia.
"With the mistakes we made tonight, we know with more improvement we can be right in the thick of it next week," Bowers said. "I view this as a great opportunity to go on the road with adversity and show what we can do."

how much paint
I would like to know how much paint I will need to do a complete 52 Chev 2dr sedan in base clear (solid color). Would like to make sure I have some left to cover any mistakes. thanks.
Don't know on the paint, just wanted to comment on the chevy looks like it's coming along nicely I give it a BIG Brian
You'll want 3 Quarts of base and 1 gallon of clear coat.
Onless the base color is "low hiding" you should have enough to do a "complete" including the insides of the doors.
If the base color is low hiding you may need an extra quart.
Dupont Chromabase is famous for being low hiding.
RM Diamont and Sikkens Autobase cover much better.
You realize that you can paint your car in a 1 stage Acrylic Urethane 2K solid color. It is exactly the same as the clear coat in a Base/clear paint job. It looks just as rich and deep as a base clear job. it is faster and costs less. (no base coat/base maker solvent to buy). Typically only requires 2 full coats. 1 US gallon is enough for most cars. Most 2K 1 stage uethane paints use the same hardners and reducers as the Clear coats do.
Its the same paint with pigment in it.
if you're going black or red or white it will be nicer overall in 1 stage paint.
Some examples are Dupont Imron, Sikkens Autocryl II
Sico Acrythane, Nason 2K Glasurit 22 Line.
Sand and polish just like Urethane Clear Coat. Just as pretty, just as durable if not more so.

Nice project! What line of paint will you be using and what color?
good information I too am wondering the same thing.
Thanks for the comments.
F-Bird88, I have been going back and forth about the single stage option and just may do that. Would a gallon be enough?? I was also thinking of painting it in parts so to speak. I have the body minus the doors, front fenders hood and truck lid on the rotisseriere and would like to paint it before taking it off. I fitted the doors and did the body work on them while they were on the body and then took them off. I thought it would be nice to paint the remaining parts off the car and then assemble them. Was concerned though about having the different panels match doing it that way. It may not be that much of a problem using solid color. I am using Omni MP170 epoxy primer and Omni MP182 hi build primer. Right now I am at the stage of going to apply final touch up with the epoxy and then apply the hi build.
That's the way we painted our 54 ford, and color match wasn't a problem . i asked my father-in-law about that and he said"measure the mix exactly every time you are going to spray and take your time and try to lay down the same number of coats" I am no painter but I stayed at a holiday Inn last night.LOL I have been around it long enough to understand most of the in's and out's. "A man's gotta know his limitaions" Thank you Clint Eastwood. Brian
If you're doing a singlstage complete, including the jambs, underhood, firewall, underdecklid, desh, etc... I would definately order up two gallons of color-especially if you want some left over and need enough cushion for repairing mistakes. Same with BC/CC. Again, what color? What paint line?
thanks baddbob, the color is going to be close to the original light blue. I took the trunk lid into the paint supplier and they scanned it (the original paint on the inside of the lid) with their camera "thingy" and gave me a paint code for PPG paint. Is there a quality line that you would recommend? Except for the wheels the car will be original on the outside (restorod) and I am not partial to putting a non original color on it.
Wait a minute. You took the old faded, wethered origional paint sample ( trunk lid) in to scan to create are best possible match formula using the PPG "Profit" (Color Spectrum Analyser) Y not just research the origional OEM factory color code and look up the PPG paint mix formula.
The old paint will have faded, lightened and dulled a good bit.
You're not going to get the rich origional finish, you're going to get a shiny version of the old faded finish. Most the paint companies have the old factory OEM paint formulas on Archive. They can get it for ya.
PPG is fine paint. I'm more familiar with the PPG B/C system Deltron, than the 1 stage. If thats your favoriate brand, go with the B/C.
if you were going to paint it a generic common color like Black, super white or some shade of Red I would recomend using Sico Acrythane. It's very good Acrylic Polyurethane 2K paint. At about $$1/2 the cost$$ and all the quality. Its made in Canada too. Don't know if it is distributed on the West Coast. Many many cool solids and Metalics. Easy to work with. Nice stuff.
May have a blue that is close to what you want.
if you want to recreate the factory OEM paint. the i recomend PPG. I recomend Sikkens Autocryl 1 stage.
i recommend Glazuirt. If youre going to paint inside the dorrs etc before hand just decide what color, decide what brand and paint line, and get a Quart. then when you're ready to spray the outside get 3 more quarts. You will have a bit left over to save for touch up. 3 years down the road it won't matter any wether ya bought 3 quarts or 4 or .....
You need to research the OEM paint code.
There are a few 1 stage paints I would avoid.
Sherman Williams Ultra 1 stage. (B/C system is fine)
RM Solo 1 stage. Never had much luck with either.
I'm a factory trained certified RM Paint Refinisher. Used many other brands over the years.
I would remove the body shell from the Rotissery then mount it on the frame. On the wheels with the suspension loaded. then final fit the doors etc. then remove and paint the door jams etc. Then reinstall and final sand the primer.
The body is flex able. More flexable than you think. i you fit and shim the doors etc on the shell while it is hung on the rotissery it will surly not fit right once on the frame mounts.
Gravity..... You'll be reshimming everything and probabily clip up the door jambs etc etc. How many times are you going to paint it.?
I would buy two gallons and expect 1-2 quarts left over for later repairs, that's assuming you're doing the firewall, jambs and all the other important surfaces. I'd also do the paint in two stages for the best results. Spray three coats of color, wetsand with 600 and shoot two more flow coats with just a tad bit more reducer. I've done quite a few single stage jobs like this over the years and they always turn out better. If you're staying with PPG's products it's tough to beat Concept for durability. DAU is also good and easy to spray-but I heard it's almost phased out now. Global DG is also good but a little tougher to spray. Stay away from Omni MTK for durability reasons-JMO. Bob
thanks for all the advise guys, I did research the original color codes and found ditzler codes however no one around here could cross it over to theirs. I could order it from a US supplier however that is not practical. The original paint on the underside of the trunk lid looked good and unfaded so I thought it would be close enough. I am not trying to "restore" it just have it close to original. I will do some more looking.
1. ya have to watch how much paint ya wack on at once.
Urethanes, especially 1 stage only want and need a 2 coat application. Anything in exesse of that will result in next day dull back. Thats why you have to color sand and reapply. Too much film thickness at once. the paint skins over, trapping solvent, resulting in dull back finish.
only apply the recomended amount of coats. more is not better. Some paints like SillyWilly ultra 1 stage are very critical for this.
You/re essentually using the first go around as a expensive sealer. Why not just seal it first and paint it once?
If you're not an old hand at it B/C is probabily the better way to go. Both give great results. A 1 shot 1 stage solid color is just cheaper and faster. (requires proper technique thou) Don't bash on the clear coat either for the same reasons.
Most are a 2 coat deal. Do not over reduce to get flow. Select the right temp reducer and control the paint booth temp. Stick to the recomended tach time between coats. Don't want to trap solvent.

Ditzler is PPG.
RM has an extensive old OEM code and formula libary.
tey have best possible match formulas fot the old Laquer codes that you can mix in RM Diamont. B/C
Rm B/C is easy to owkr with. Im not as up on PPG but if you have a Ditzler formula you should be able toget a computer generated modern formula for the Urethane or B/? stuff.
Hey if you feel that your sample color was ok, go for it.
Are you painting in a controled environment (Down Draft)
or......? B/C is probabily the best choice if you'll be painting it in ....other....

A third of Americans are cutting back spending because of their fears over the so-called fiscal cliff -- if Washington can't agree on a compromise, according to a new poll from Palm Beach County-based Bankrate.com.
One in three polled said they have reined in spending in the last 30 days while another Bankrate.com survey found that Americans are feeling the least financially secure in a year.
The website's Financial Security Index dropped to a 2012 low. For the second month in a row, all five components in the survey fell, from job security to overall financial situation.
Indeed, Americans are currently feeling worse about their job security, savings, debt, net worth and overall financial situation than they did a year ago, the survey found. A University of Florida survey found consumer confidence in the state had dropped in November in part because of anxiety over the fiscal cliff.
"The combination of tax hikes and significant spending cuts would push the economy into recession, and one-third of consumers are already beginning to cut back on spending due to the looming uncertainty," McBride email@example.com or Twitter @donnagehrke

Lawyers & Law Firms
Is anybody surprised?
What ever the merits of the case, we can be sure that the system will protect its own.
While justice was shortchanged, Ms. Keller did behave in the finest tradition of a bureaucrat.
it is standard practice to file a motion to block the execution as late as possible on a day, so no matter how spurious it is there will not be time for a judge to make a ruling, and a stay will be granted until such time as the motion can be considered
looks like defence counsel cut it too close this time
That is the most ridiculous reasoning I have ever heard. Shame on the public defenders because they only started writing a brief 2 hours after the supreme court decided to hear a case? WHAT??????
And, if her actions were "highly questionable" then she should most definitely suffer some form of punishment. This is another example of the judiciary acting to protect judges from their own criminal deeds. Keller should be indicted for negligent homicide or depraved indifference homicide.
I live in Texas and I knew she would be vindicated. I wouldn't even be surpised to find that Michael Richards' life was scarificed in a gamble to get rid of Keller.
What a face? Who could blame her? Its not like Texas uses falsified DNA reports and god only knows what else (but we do know how the so called justice works especially in Texas) to put innocents in U.S. torture chambers for a life of ass rapin, dudes better off dead anyways. Execute don't prosecute and bring back dueling.
Dear Law Blog, No fan of Judge Keller here, but from all the posts I've read about this matter, the judge's exact words were of some importance — and they were far worse than the "no" that you attribute to her, in quotation marks, no less. The actual words she spoke were worse for their banality – she was just a clerk, and all she knew was that at a certain hour, the office closed. The banality of ….
The guy raped and murdered a mother of seven. His guilt was not at issue, only how the sentence was to be carried out. Why not blame him for carrying out the crime, or the Supremes for messing around at this late date with the method of execution?
Another prosecution that is a waste of taxpayer money. This and practically all federal prosecutions of "white collar" crime should be abolished. Lets spend our money prosecuting the AAJ and its membership. The Tea Party of the Century has begun. Lets take back America from the liberals!!!
Judge Keller should not be in office. Reguardless of what a person has done its not up to us to judge and the only person that can take a life is god. Sharon should be removed from office asap, and I hope the tax payers on not on the hook for her attorney fees, after she lied and forgot that she owned houses in Austin and asked the tax payers to pay her attorneys fees. Men on death row get 25,000 dollars for appeal yet she asked for 100,000 dollars what makes her so special. Judges are suppose to have an open mind and heart and deal with each case as they come across there desk, Sharon had her mind made up before juror selection.
Sounds to me from the little I've read that Berchelmann wrote a fair opinion, correctly applying the law. Sometimes the law and court rules can have harsh consequences. That's the way it is. The prisoner's attorneys should have been better prepared. Being heartless isn't illegal.
The lateness of the filing is typical strategery in these death penalty cases. If Keller violated no law or rule, then Keller (regardless of her attitude) should walk. The guy on death row got less than he deserved. No one ends up there in Texas without numerous judicial reviews of his case and the fact that a jury found that he was a continuing threat to society.
I currently work for a judge and it is inconceivable to me that anything like this could happen. There is no duty that a judge should take more seriously than deciding on a man's life (or liberty). It should transcend political leanings and one's over-inflated ego. Regardless whether Berchelmann technically violated any rule or ethic, she lacked basic common sense, decency and respect for justice. Her actions are a disgrace on our American judiciary.
Kevin NJ,
I believe you mean to say,"…Keller technially violated any rule or ethic…" which is the she, not Berchelmann who is a he. Berchelmann was the special master in the case.
Mr. McQueen: the appeal could not be written or filed until SCOTUS announced that it would hear the relevant case. The defense team had computer problems and called the court to inform them that they would be late in filing due to these problems, but 20 minutes.
I am a Texan. I am usually proud to say no. Not today.
"Further, her judgment in not keeping the clerk's office open past 5:00 to allow the TDS to file was highly questionable."
No, it wasn't. Meet the filing deadline or your client will suffer the consequences.
"The guy raped and murdered a mother of seven. His guilt was not at issue, only how the sentence was to be carried out."
This. Nothing of any import was lost by Judge Keller's refusal to change the rules. Save your outrage for the defendant's complete disrespect for the humanity of his innocent victim.
Law Blog's summary does not accurately convey the degree of criticism she receives from the Special Master. Yes, he finds that there is not ground to remove her from office and that the defense lawyers also screwed up, but the Special Master explicitly finds that Kelleher exercised "poor judgment." Life and death decisions are the one place where there is no room for poor judgment.
1. Keeping the entire courthouse open is not the same as having a judge in chambers waiting to accept an appeal. TDS delegated to a paralegal to call the court. The paralegal asked for courthouse to be kept open. TDS has filed appeals after 5 pm before and know the procedure, i.e., that there will be a judge in chambers waiting to accept an appeal after the courthouse has closed.
2. TDS did not have a computer problem that caused a delay. First they said it was a computer problem, then they said it was a printer, then they said it was a copy machine on the blink. It turns out that their email had a spam problem. They could have communicated with their other office by FAX. Or they could have had the email sent to someone with a different ISP, e.g., a lawyer in another office in the same building.
3. And yes her legal fees should be paid for her. People hate Keller because she enforces the laws on capital punishment. If you don't like the laws – change them. Otherwise, stop attacking her for petty mostly misreported crap.
Capital Appellate attorneys are expected to be proficient in appellate procedures. TDS could have drafted a one or two page writ asking for a stay of execution and gone to any trial judge and gotten it signed.
TDS should have anticipated that the USSC would accept Baze and issue a ruling on that day. Instead they come in late, decide to rewrite their entire brief (or so they say) when all they had to do is add a couple of pages to their original petition about lethal injection and that the USSC had agreed to review the issue that day. You're not trying to win the argument at that level – but just to get it in federal court where a stay would be granted.
It is funny how many people are obviously posting without reading the opinion of Berchalmann.
While he does not absolve Keller, he ultimately blames TDS and without calling TDS names, essentially recites facts that show TDS out and out lied to make the story more "newsworthy" from its perspective.
I love the accessibility of the internet, but it (and probably numerous other factors) have all but killed off good investigative journalism. Pick your media outlet and drink the Cool-Aid.
I wouldnt even call it heartless. Assume for a moment she was a proponent of the death penalty and wanted the guy dead. Its certainly her prerogative as a judge and as a human being. Then a case like this comes up and she refuses to make a special concession to allow for a late filing. Again, that is her prerogative. She is under no duty to bend the rules to allow for special filings and this is especially true if such a filing would violate her personal beliefs. Just bc she is a judge doesnt mean she doesnt have personal opinions. For all you bleeding heart liberals, you would not be protesting if she opposed the death penalty and allowed for the late filing. If you all didnt notice, the law has technical procedures. Violate them at your own peril.

Written: 8/30/2011
Many years ago, a poet once wrote... "Out with the old, in with the new."
For all we know, he could've been writing about us...
...of Princess Luna and the New Lunar Republic of the far future.
Almost an entire millennium has passed by and nothing seems to have changed on this planet.
Everyday used to be the usual, dull routine of ponies living happily and ruling well while all other species are downtrodden or simply ignored as part of some status quo.
And for that, the ponies of Equestria have become the envy of lesser beings.
If only you could see past all the facades and behold the truth for yourself, you would most certainly think otherwise.
And the truth lies in the story of our Lunar Highness.
Ever since I've heard that story for myself, I have learned to know hate and contempt...
...towards a creature that speaks of pride and honour, that fosters the love of his subjects, that smiles and scrapes at every act of obedience, an

I've been in the service of her highness for many years now.
It is my task to command and lead her armies to bring order and protection to the Solar Kingdom.
My father did this before me with pride and distinction. As did his father before him.
For thousands of years, Equestria has known peace and stability under the benevolent rule of Princess Celestia.
It is under her guidance that everypony has lived happily, ate heartily, and worked diligently tending to the orchards and fields which are the breadbaskets and lifeblood of this Kingdom.
We are her children. And she loves us all. This is how life was in Equestria and how it should be.
But all of that came to an end... with the return of the Mare in the Moon.
Refusing to allow her authority to be usurped and allow everypony in Equestria to suffer under her vengeful rule, Princess Celestia dispatched the six elements of harmony to stop her.
But in a cruel twist of fate, the elements beca

Equestria Divided - Everfree DruidsThe Unicorn caste of House Everfree that draws their magic power from the supernatural essence of Everfree Forest itself.
Druids are able to change into animal forms, snare their foes with roots or harden their skin like petrified tree bark as well as being able to shape the trees and stone and make friends with the animals around them.
It is with these skills, the use of this druidic magic, and their affinity for nature that they survive in this age of madness and destruction.
Equestria Divided - Everfree BeastmastersThe beastmasters of House Everfree are feared and respected among their kin for their supernatural talent in taming and controlling the most dangerous creatures that reside in the deepest parts of the vast Forest.
As the main combat arm of House Everfree, their duties range from scouting and fast attack (for the small and swift-moving beasts) to all-out frontal defense and assault (for the very big and very heavy beasts).
Any opponent who has the sanity and wit to trifle with House Everfree would do well to prioritize the elimination of the beastmasters before they are given a chance to unleash the immeasurable savagery of their formidable mounts and bring them to bear upon the foals unfortunate enough to be on the receiving end of their wrath.
Equestria Divided - Laughing GassersDeep within the ranks of the Cult of Laughter is a collective of scientists and engineers, all of them defectors who were desperate to escape ostracism and poverty so that they could continue their work without fear of starvation and persecution for their radical ideas.
Accepted into the Cult in exchange for their loyalty and services, they work day in and day out to build and maintain essential machines, whether stolen or built from scratch, as well as researching and developing new devices that will help to further the goals of the Cult.
And one of the worst things to have been spawned from their ingenuity are chemical weapons, a completely strange and new concept of destructive potential that is just waiting to be unleashed by the Cult.
Among these chemical weapons is an insidious formula that was approved and chosen by the Council as the Cult's greatest instrument of their patron god, The Laughing Mare.

"The wine is lovely this year, Madame Berry Grape." Celestia gave a short nod to the bowing pony. The wine was, in fact, not lovely this year. It was simply what a princess was supposed to say at the Autumn Equinox Banquet.
At this function, like most, the aristocracy played a traditional and subtle game of which-pony-was-better-than-which, a ferociously competitive sport of tiny score keeping. If you sit one space closer to the princess, you are one point better. If you wore a dress not haute couture, you lost a point. If your hat had an extra feather, you had an extra point, unless you attempted a power play by foregoing feathers and trying a coiffure done by a famous mane stylist, though that was a risky move. Fumbling through a step on the dance floor was an easy way to lose points, though that was never an issue, since no one ever danced for fear of subtracting their score. Winners were allowed to hold their noses in inc
Confessions and ConsiderationsConfessions and Considerations
A light blue blur with colorful streaks flowing out from behind it fell from the sky. The speed of the fall appeared to be too fast for what was safe, and the form was speeding towards the ground at an alarming rate. Staring at the blurred, falling form, a certain earth pony couldn't help but feel a twinge of pure terror. Even as she watched the rainbow-colored comet streak towards the ground a ways in front of her she could see what was to happen. She knew full well in her heart what was bound to happen, she would be too late, she could never reach that spot in time. She couldn't help but feel the jerk in her stomach as she watched her friend plummet towards the ground in front of her. Time had seemed to slow down, her hooves hit the surface beneath her, propelling her towards the spot where the blur seemed to be about to hit. The blur fell ever closer and closer towards that spot, and her heart was in her throat when she saw contact was made. She had fu
Dinner Date pt. 1Another day, another sky to clear. That thought kept passing through Rainbow Dash's mind as she flew about Ponyville kicking clouds. She would look down and see other ponies going about their business, and Rainbow would notice that, once again, other pegasus ponies wouldn't fly as high as her. 'I bet those ponies couldn't reach Cloudsdale if they tried,' she thought to herself.
From this height, she could see the extent of her work, and she figured that it was enough for today. She planned to settle in for a nap, but something caught her attention. This something happened to be a yellow pegasus flying into Ponyville, and while Rainbow knew that her friend, Fluttershy, often flew into town, this was the first time she'd seen her fly at this speed. "She looks like a pony on a mission," Rainbow said.
Opting to investigate instead of taking a nap, she flew down toward her friend.
"Hey Fluttershy," Rainbow Dash shouted, "Where're you off to?"
Slightly shaken Fluttershy looked u
Him Part 1The Dashing Rainbow soared through the sky in her awesome-powered hyper-carriage towards the not-so-secret-anymore hideout of her latest enemy: The Egghead Unicorn! "This is for you President Fluttershy," The Dashing Rainbow said to herself as she flew toward this new loser's base, "Nopony holds my friend's library card hostage! Nopony!"
The loser hideout was in sight. The Dashing Rainbow ensured that she had enough egghead repellent on. Though she was immune to all forms of losery, eggheadery, drawlery, and even snootery, President Fluttershy insisted she protect herself.
With a final increase of the throttle, The Dashing Rainbow leapt out of the carriage and fell effortlessly into the gaping hole that was left in its wake. The carriage itself was beyond repair and cost 15 rainbillion bits. That was a number accountants had to invent just so they could count The Dashing Rainbow's wealth. One rainbillion is a one
The Element of Betrayal -Ch.1-"Oh, come on, Twilight, you know I'm old enough to go with you", said Spike, as Twilight Sparkle set a book in her saddlebag. "I've been with you on way more dangerous stuff than this before."
"I know, Spike, but there's no reason to let anything bad happen to you. The goblet Princess Celestia wants me to find is deep in the Evertree Forest, and I wouldn't want us to get seperated and have you run into a cockatrice or something."
Twilight continued to pack.
"Besides, you shouldn't be lonely; Rainbow Dash will be here all night."
"Not by choice, mind you." Rainbow Dash stated while scanning the library for anything that would catch her interest. "Apparently, there was a parasprite hiding in my walls and it multiplied, so Fluttershy and Pinkie Pie have to escort them all out of there. They say it's going to be an all-nighter."
"But..." Spike started, but stopped himself, because he knew it would be no use. Twilight started out the door.

Common Sky - Part 3The breeze blew past Luna's ears as she enjoyed Twilight's warmth against her. Her eyes were closed, focusing intently on this feeling of closeness that was so new and terrifying to her. She didn't know if she was doing the right thing, or if she was being too affectionate or forward. Luna didn't know what being somepony's 'friend' was like, or how she was supposed to act. Luna had dreamt about this moment for so long, and couldn't pass up the opportunity, no matter if wrecked everything else. Sharing this beautiful night she had created with somepony was the only thing that she had hoped for in her long life. In this moment, she was content with just this. Under the sea of stars, with streaks of fire and waves of light challenging the daytime in pure brilliance, Luna was finally at peace. Her dream had come true. Nightmare Moon was wrong.
"Ahem," spoke a familiar, dark voice. Luna's eyes shot wide open and she stepped back, looking around. She was in that familiar, damp, dark corridor
The Stylist and The Introvert
Fluttershy sat outside her hut, the sun shining down on her. She relished in glorious days like this, there was just something about that made her feel so fantastic. She surveyed the landscape; all of her little animal friends seemed to be enjoying it as much as she was. Bunnies chased each other through the various floras, while birds soared overhead. She wished that everyday could be like this, although if that happened there might be serious repercussions for the environment. Starting to lose herself in the tranquility of the meadow, Fluttershy snapped back to her senses, only to realise she was supposed to meet Rarity at her boutique. In one swift movement, she shattered the peaceful atmosphere by charging towards her destination. Fluttershy wanted to turn back and apologise to her friends but that would make her late for her appointment, and she'd hate to disappoint Rarity as well. Onward she went, not stopping for any reason, until she reached Rarity's place of work.

True Feelings Realised.
Twilight sat up and stretched. She had just spent the best part of
three hours studying.
Around her were piles upon piles of dusty old tomes, ranging from local
history in the past one hundred years, to the origin of their species.
So far she had only managed to get through the one book, but she had a
free day, so she was certain she could blast through another seven or
so. She continued her stretching,listening to her joints crack into place.
Finally she stood up properly, giving her tail a playful flick as she
did. She did a quick scan of the room and quickly noticed something was
wrong.She couldn't see Spike anywhere, although it was rare for him to
leave without annoucing it.
Across the room, a few books shifted and Twilight was certain she heard
a low groan. She darted over the numerous book piles to where the groan
had come from. She nudged a few books away to reveal a small purple
The books shuddered again and Twilight nudged them away until all that
A Quiet Confession"No Pinkie," Rainbow said, "I'm not doing it!"
"But Dashie," Pinkie protested, "If you don't tell her you'll never be happy."
"I know," Rainbow said looking down, "But Fluttershy's been my friend since we were fillies. She knows everything about me." There was more to it than that. Fluttershy was the only pony who Rainbow could drop the brave face and allow herself to be vulnerable. 'Fluttershy let's me just be me,' Rainbow thought, 'I love her, but I can't.' She shook her head and said flatly, "I ask too much from Fluttershy as it is. I can't ask this from her."
"But," Pinkie said, "What if she likes you too?" She remembered the day Rainbow told her she was in love with Fluttershy. Rainbow had returned from a picnic with Fluttershy and looked sad. When Pinkie asked her what was bothering her, Rainbow swore her to secrecy and told her that she was in love with Fluttershy. Pinkie was stunned and asked if she told her and she began to cry. Pinkie had never seen Rainbow cry and this just

Written: 9/1/2011
Equestria, once a marvelous land of love and magic, is now a tattered battlescape of bruises, scars, ashes, and blood.
All of this damage was brought about not just by the tides of war, but by the weak leadership, poor decisions, and bad luck of the self-destructed Solar Kingdom.
Princess Celestia, who has squandered the potential of this land in the vain and desperate attempts of fighting off the vitality and volatility of change, ended up drowning in blood along with her subjects and the old and dying order they tried so blindly to preserve against the inevitable.
A hypocrite who once spoke in condemnation of treachery against her has finally paid the ultimate price for her own treachery and stubbornness.
And for that, we can find no higher comfort and satisfaction in knowing that truth and justice have prevailed.
We must now put away our weapons and take up the tools and jobs needed to restore Equestria to its former glory.

Poetic PsychosisIn thirty seconds, the next shell would fall. Every night was the same, but every night Lorenzo experienced it as if it were the first time. His throat felt swollen; breathing was hard. He glanced around at the others; young men like him who had been shipped out in the name of honour and freedom. There was no honour in this, no freedom. Only death behind your eyelids, and a fear so gutting, that it carved out your innards and left you a hollow husk. Lorenzo tried to breathe, tried to assure himself that he was still whole, still made of flesh. They had lied when they told him he was ready.
Matteo ran towards him, arms out, rifle swinging uselessly at his side. He shouted for him to run, but Lorenzo remained motionless, unable to move as his friend's warning was lost in the constant blare of gunfire. None of them were ready.
"The cycle is repeating. It is not safe." The voice was soft and weak, yet it carried over the gunfire and battle cries without impediment.

And here we thought we already knew about everything BMW planned to bring to the 2012 Geneva Motor Show. We were wrong. The German automaker has announced that it will debut a new M135i Concept, marking the first time it has paired a gasoline-burning engine with its new M Performance ...
BMW apparently set a precedent when it teased its trio of M-fettled diesels. That video showed a speeding X6 with all the tell-tale bits of kit blurred out. Now, BMW is ready to give us a taste of its new 1 Series fitted with an assortment of M Performance baubles and it's taking a similar tact ...

When one has been smoking marijuana and is at the point when he is sitting, and feels as though he is under a mound of snow. One can then give a sudden jerk to his whole body do shake it all off and feel normal again. If one can not muster a body shake, or it doesn't work, that person is then considered sanded.
Duuude, I am fakin snowed.

Ask any hospital worker... this is when a person who is hooked up to system monitoring devices, dies. When they die, the monitor turns to snow - there's no information on it anymore.
When the nurse tripped on that cord, we all thought you got snowed... glad she plugged it back in quickly.

Mobile users hate banner ads, TV viewers fast-forward through commercials and newspapers can't sell enough advertising space to keep reporters on staff. But none of these truths trumps a hard fact: the $140 billion a year advertising industry in the U.S. has grown in each of the last 3 years and is expected to top $170 billion in 2013, according to emarketer.com
And the amount spent on the most hated type of advertising — mobile — is expected to more than double — from $3.4 billion in 2012 to as much as $8.5 billion this year, Emarketer reports.
All of this spending does not guarantee the success of advertising. And it certainly doesn't mean you should increase advertising spending for your company. But it does indicate that there remains a great deal of faith — and potential — in ad spending. Success depends on how and where you spend your money and, more important, on the content of your ads.
Advertising is not dead. But bad advertising — the annoying ones that stalk you on the Internet or demand that you type a text message to opt-in to a pitch — will soon meet a timely death. Story-driven ads, however, are here to stay.
Bears and Diamonds are Eternal
Because everyone loves a story — no matter how or why it's told. Content marketing thrives on storytelling — and storyselling — by connecting brands with customers in meaningful ways. But compelling stories told in advertising platforms also create lasting relationships. Smokey the Bear has been urging people to prevent forest fires since 1944, and there's every reason to believe that DeBeers' "A Diamond is Forever" campaign will last as long as men and women believe in the promise of marriage.
The art of storytelling got lost in the infancy of the Internet. Content was nothing more than keywords strung together with an occasional verb, and ads had little meaning beyond the frantic urging to "CLICK HERE" or "BUY NOW."
As the Internet aged, digital marketing matured. Technology has returned to its rightful place as a marketing tool, but not its driving force.
Don't give up on advertising as a way to promote your brand and drive sales, but spend your budget wisely. Consider these three ways to increase the value of your online advertising dollars:
1. Don't rush to advertise.
If you're a new business owner, resist the urge to advertise your company until you have a sound marketing strategy in place. I've known entrepreneurs who spent their entire advertising budget before they made a single sale — and some who overspent before they even had a product ready to sell.

This is first time, I try to encrypt the connection string in ASP.Net website. I thought it will be difficult but my surprise, it is very easy to do. Yes of course, if you want to encrypt in one machine and install in server will be different story. You may need to Google more than me. For my case, I have access to server and connection string encryption is just a few minutes task. Here is the step:
- Open the Visual Studio Command Prompt as Administrator.
- Run this command aspnet_regiis -pe "connectionStrings" -site "yoursitename" -app "/"
- After you see the succeeded message in prompt, you open the web.config file you will see the encrypted connection.
There are others options available for this command you can see them as aspnet_regiis /? as usual.

SPOILER ALERT! Stephwatch 2012 Continues!
- Written by Zechs on Sunday, August 26 2012 and posted in News with Benefits
Has more evidence been revealed that Stephanie Brown is returning to the DCU?!
Source: Evidence That Stephanie Brown May Be Returning As Spoiler?
Several days ago, Bleeding Cool reported some "evidence" that seemed to show fan favorite character Stephanie Brown was returning. The character profile was set to appear in the hardcover book, Batman: The World of the Dark Knight.
This profile above, alas, has now been proven false by CBR poster ffritts, who somehow managed to obtain a copy of the real profile, edited by Dan Didio himself. This is the official, final copy which will actually see print in the book, proving the initial rough draft posted by Ricch Johnston to be nothing but a red herring, like communism. Here's the real profile:
Well played, Didio.
In other Stephanie Brown news, Gail Simone finally revealed the project she was hyping for much of last year via her Tumblr: a teen team book that was to have the beloved character partner up with Misfit, Black Alice, and Bumblebee. The book was to have been co-written by Bryan Q. Miller, though there wasn't any word of who would have drawn it. It is believed that fans of Brown would have flocked to the project, despite the discouraging working title "Toxic Characters That Nobody Wants to Read About." While this reporter couldn't find the original Twitter link, I still have the quote Simone posted on the subject almost a year ago:
At SDCC, we talked, Dan liked the idea, and approved it for me to go ahead and do an outline. And that's where we are at with that, I'm doing the outline this weekend. I am not adding a lot of details, but I believe I have said that ONE of the characters people seem to be most upset about here, will be thoroughly unbenched, if this goes through, and I"m pretty sure it will. One, not two, that's why I was being so careful with my words. And there are some other characters involved.
A little while ago, I wrote to Bryan, we've kept in contact, and asked him what he's working on, and he's doing something for DC but it's top secret. And it hit me that it would be great fun to co-write this thing with me. He's excited by the idea, but that is very preliminary and we haven't even approached DC with that part yet, so yes, definitely a healthy dose of, "it would be great if it happens" is called for here. But we ARE talking and it would be great fun.
I'm pretty positive the story is going to happen. Whether or not Bryan is involved, we have to get an outline together for three issues, so the wait right now is on me, I had other stuff that had to take priority briefly, but I'll have it done this weekend. But I'm pretty sure it'll happen and I would love to have Bryan involved.
About a million people have suggested Cass and/or Steph join the cast of the new Batgirl book and I thought about that for a long time, but in the end, it just felt like rubbing salt in the wound. They earned better placement in the DCU and I would like to see that happen.
So those are the facts, anything else is just rumor that keeps getting circulated and enhanced.
Now we know the now actual fate of the entire project. While it's disappointing to see what might have been, with the shiny ray of hope Bleeding Cool is providing, along with our own sources stating that DC plans to bring the character back in a big way, this project may simply have been a casualty of future plans, as opposed to part of Dan Didio's sick personal vendetta.

Mario Batali's Pizza Dough
This pizza dough recipe is from chef Mario Batali's cookbook "Italian Grill," and is used to make his delicious Pizza Margherita.
Get MoreSubscribe to Martha Stewart Living
- 3 1/4 cups all-purpose flour, plus more for work surface
- 2 teaspoons instant or rapid-rise yeast
- 1 tablespoon salt
- 1 tablespoon sugar
- 1 cup warm water
- 1/4 cup dry white wine, at room temperature
- 2 tablespoons plus 1 teaspoon extra-virgin olive oil
Step 1
In a large bowl, combine flour, yeast, salt, and sugar; mix until well combined. Make a well in the center and add water, wine, and olive oil. Using a wooden spoon, stir liquid into the dry ingredients until mixture becomes too stiff to stir. Continue mixing with your hands until the dough comes together and pulls away from the sides of the bowl.
Step 2
Lightly dust work surface with flour. Turn dough out onto work surface. Gently knead, dusting work surface with more flour as necessary, until dough is smooth, elastic, and only slightly sticky, about 5 minutes.
Step 3
Oil a large clean bowl; add dough and turn to coat. Cover bowl with plastic wrap or a kitchen towel; set in a warm part of the kitchen and let rise until doubled in size, about 1 hour.
Step 4
Punch down dough before using.
