We try and try, we have a 99% green boat but paper towels are our downfall.
When it comes to provisioning dog food is our money pit, we spend almost the same amount on Chloe as we do on our self's. Once we cross the border we will start sharing our food with her and cutting down on kibble but she is older and her food has all the vitamins and minerals a doggy could want. Storage for dog food is another issue, we buy a 6 month supply at a time and it definitely cuts into our booze storage.
per the paper towels, ever think about just not buying them, and learning to make due? its not like having a papertowel onboard is going to save your life one day or anything, maybe something you can learn to do without given the motivation, or not I dont know just seems like a good way to do away with something you know you dont need...
the dogfood... yes a problem possibly, though like all problems maybe more of an opportunity to overcome and minimize through effort which it seems from the posting you already do.. if you look at foods which are by all definitions of the veterinary community some of the best available on the market, depending on breed. most have a high content of fish which in theory should be pretty plentiful in your situation, combined with veggies and a complex grain (brown/wild/etc rice).. so while I would definitely pay attention to the consistency of this diet and additives of maybe a more expensive kibble to suplement the vitamins, or even investigate something to take the place of it you all can share, I would think for the most part you could share the base drygoods (alcohol aside ) and have a smaller requirement for storage of kibble specifically.. unless its an emergency ration situation, then have at it...
happy sails,

I keep a roll of toilet paper near the paper towels. I know it sounds weird, but you'd be amazed how many times you can use a few sheets of TP instead of a paper towel, just having it within reach really cuts down on the number of paper towels you use.
Another item we are having trouble balancing is bread. For something that costs a buck at the store, it sure does come as a luxury about your second week on the hook! Our workaround for that is tortillas which last a surprisingly long time and keep well. But you can't exactly store enough bread to last a month, so we are looking for some good recipes to make it.

I use:
2 cups flour
1/4 cup veg oil
3/4 cup warm water
1-2 teaspoons salt.
Mix, knead well, make into 8 or so balls, cover for 20 minutes, roll out on well floured saloon table, i still make funny shapes, sometimes they look like Australia.... Heat pan with just a few drops of oil, cook on one side for a few minutes....enjoy!

Re: Cruiser's Biggest Provisioning Surprises...
Re cruisers and bread. My wife recentyl brought home some ready to bake bread that can be kept for 2-3 monthes without refridgerating. It can be baked in just 8 min. at 400 deg F. It is made by "Dempesters Bakery" .
Now for the glitch, we live in atlantic Canada and I don't know if it is available everywhere. If you want any more info let me know and I'll try and help.
Re: Cruiser's Biggest Provisioning Surprises...
Tortillas are one of the easiest things to make. Very basic recipe that I use:
2 C. flour
1/2 C. shortening (Crisco like)
3/4 C Warm water
1 tsp salt
-Cut shortening into flour and salt until like cornmeal
-add water and knead 1-2 minutes. Add flour/water if needed to firm up dough
-divide into about 8-10 small round balls
-roll flat on floured surface (it takes practice to make round ones, don't worry about your shape for now )
-brush off excess flour
-cook on un-greased skillet (cast iron is great for this) till bubbles form on top
-you don't have to flip to cook the other side, but you can
cooking only takes 1-3 minutes depending on your temp.
I generally roll out the next one while the current one is cooking
place on plate between towels to keep warm while cooking
they will last 1-2 days but do not have the preservatives of store bought
If you have a second burner to warm up (or make) refried beans, you are set!!!!

Re: Cruiser's Biggest Provisioning Surprises...
If available, try Arnold's Italian bread. Seems to last a bit longer. Plus, when I make sandwiches, I almost always butter one side and put them on the skillet. Gets past the going stale part.
While I use tortillas as well, I also use a lot of saltine crackers for things like peanut butter and sliced sausage and cheese. Egg noodles is another staple of mine. As for beer (I don't drink the hard stuff), I put it here, in the blue wastebasket (cans):

Every student earning the MPC degree must complete a capstone project. In addition to developing a professional portfolio that highlights your best work, you will complete a field project. The field project requires you to focus your interests on an internship or a client-based project that incorporates the knowledge and skills you have learned throughout your studies. This is a great opportunity to concentrate on a communication field that is particularly interesting to you and to add a major component to your professional portfolio.
You may propose a project after you have completed 28 credit hours in the program. Once your project proposal has been carefully planned and approved, you may register for MPC 690. Field projects are as diverse as our students and their interests.
Because MPC 690 serves as the culmination of the MPC program, students are expected to select a project that challenges them to apply a wide variety of theories and skills learned in the program.
Students may undertake a field project after completing 28 credit hours of course work. The nature and extent of the project is developed during a 2-credit class that focuses on the plan and design of the project. The capstone project is then completed during the following semester.
A faculty member of your choice will serve as the academic advisor
for your field project. The ideal advisor will have expertise in the
scope that you have defined for your field project. This faculty member
will provide guidance and feedback on your project, evaluate your final
project and determine your grade, and make site visits and/or consult
with your field supervisor as necessary. You may also ask your faculty
advisor to help you generate ideas and make decisions as you plan and
design your project.
In addition to your academic advisor, you will have a field
supervisor to oversee your project. Your field supervisor will be your
internship supervisor or your client. This individual will be
responsible for providing you and your faculty advisor with guidance and
feedback on your progress towards completion of the project.
Completing a field project proposal serves several purposes:
The process of planning and designing (i.e., drafting, revising,
reviewing, revising, finalizing) your project will take place in MPC
664, Field Project Planning and Design.
The faculty does not expect a specific proposal format. However,
successful field project proposals will meet the requirements of any
proposal and will include answers to the following questions:
Your proposal should be logically organized, detailed, and persuasive.
Once your field project has been approved, you will be responsible for keeping your advisors informed about the progress of your project; scheduling site visits, consultations, or meetings between your field supervisor and academic advisor (if appropriate); writing status reports (if appropriate); and completing the project on time.
If you do not complete your field project during the semester you are registered for MPC 690, you have two additional semesters to complete the project. You must enroll in MPC 699, Continuing Registration, and pay a fee of $250 each semester until the project is complete. If you do not finish the project by the end of the third semester, you will be required to re-enroll in MPC 690.
After you complete the project, you must submit three copies of any documents written, edited, or produced as part of the project. Two copies will be kept on file in the library, and the other will be housed in the MPC field project library. Your grade will be based on your academic advisor's assessment of the project as a whole, as measured by the deliverables you submit and interviews (as needed) with your field supervisor.

Building on the University of St. Thomas Music Department's commitment to excellence in music education and community outreach, the University will offer private instruction to pre-college music students and non-traditional hobbyists by launching the Music Preparatory School.
The inaugural Theory, Music History and Performance class will be taught in late January 2009. The Music Preparatory School is a non-degree granting program that offers courses to students who are not seeking college credit for private lessons. However, pre-college lessons are available upon request.
Paul Krystofiak, adjunct professor of music at UST, will serve as director of the Music Preparatory School. Krystofiak has served on the faculty of the University of St. Thomas since 1986, and holds degrees in piano performance and piano pedagogy on the graduate level. Krystofiak has served seven terms as president of the Houston Music Teachers Association and was honored by HMTA, receiving its Service Award and "Teacher of the Year" in 1993. He was also recognized as "Faculty Advisor of the Year" for his guidance with the UST chapter of the music fraternity. Every summer for the past 20 years, Krystofiak has hosted a UST piano camp for grades three extending through high school.
"These classes are affordable and students will receive a high level of instruction," said Krystofiak. "I cannot think of a better investment than nurturing our young people. What better way to incite their intellect and sense of beauty than to support an inspiring music education."
Walter Suhr, band leader of the successful Latin band Mango Punch!, graduated from the University of St. Thomas in 1989 with degrees in music and computer science.
"The knowledge that I acquired from the Music Department at the University of St. Thomas is the single most important element that I credit for a successful musical career," Suhr said. "Receiving personalized attention from my professors (including Paul Krystofiak) allowed me to acquire the skills that I have applied to leading a band. If you are serious about getting an opportunity in the extremely competitive music business, I suggest that you consider the challenging and rewarding musical education from the University of St. Thomas."
Mango Punch! is a five-time winner of "Best Latin Band" in the Houston Press Music Awards and they performed in prominent concerts and events, including the pre-game show of the Super Bowl XXXVIII, along with Willie Nelson, Toby Keith, Aerosmith and Beyoncé. Mango Punch! has shared the stage with a number of international artists including: Elvis Crespo, Kumbia Kings, Jennifer Peña, Gloria Trevi and others. Mango Punch! was also chosen to perform at an intimate after-concert gathering for Latin superstar Luis Miguel.
Music Preparatory private lessons available to third to 12th grade students.
For additional requirements and information on private lesson fees, contact Paul Krystofiak at 713-525-3566 or e-mail firstname.lastname@example.com

text: How about a Pistons/Shaq team meeting a Spurs/Sheed team in the Finals. That would be a strange one. With Am'ar'e, there would be room in the paint for him, so that shouldn't be a problem. From everything he's said over the past few years, he clearly wants to be "the man." Combine that with his comments about wanting the freedom of a playground game and that it's against his religion to lose, and we have a strong personality. It's probably the kind of thing where it's OK when you're winning, but when you get a little adversity, it can destroy a team. I'm really torn on this one. The main problem that I'm having is that I'm not convinced he's a championship big. I have a similar problem with Bosh. Both these guys to me seems like skinny, high scoring bigs who will never play the type of defense necessary to beat a tough team in the Finals. And between the two, I like Bosh better. But I haven't put enough thought into it to cement my opinion. And it's not like our bigs are championship caliber at this point either.

Dear TWIVers,
Great podcasts. I've listened to them all (TWIV/TWIP/TWIM).

I enjoyed this and figured you might as well. Takes a bit to load, but it is worth it.
Thank you all for donating so much of your time for all of our entertainment and education.

Subject: Nonscientific hypothesis to explain H5N1 claims.
Hi Twivarians,
Old trick to find enemy activity in an area of scientific research:
- Claim a useful result that 'just works' but really doesn't.
- Trace the enemy signals when they test it.
Imagine it's possible to monitor ferrets or some other signal:
- Track ferrets going to the bad guys.
- The voluntary moratorium and higher BSL requirements cut down the noise.
Big downsides for scientists in this scheme:
- Can't promote a good idea, or the enemy might make it work.
- Need a way to drop the idea, or risk becoming a Duesberg.
Thanks for the enthusiasm, conversation, knowledge, ideas and great audio!
My health span will end someday, but with your help it won't be from a microbe.
With trepidation I took the survey. I thought it was going to include virology questions (what's your favorite sequencing service?) or make me feel silly for listening without a formal education in biology (where did you get your PhD?). But the questions were about if I buy stuff that I hear about on podcasts. Easy! Short answer: yes. Long answer: hell yes!

Dear TWIVers,
They say that any press is good press and while the hype concerning Fouchier's virus is overblown and unfounded, it is heartening to know that the general public has an interest in knowing what virology researchers do and how it might impact them. It's exciting to hear students chatting about the supervirulent virus and engaging in virology in ways that I can only hope to achieve in the classroom. Thought you might be interested in the attached editorial written by science writer, Laurie Garrett about government regulations on synthetic biology using Fouchier's experiment as an example.
keep up the great work- I started listening to TWIV as a postdoc back when the episode numbers were in the "teens" and haven't missed an episode since!

I started listening to TWIV around no. 40. I enjoyed it so much that I listened to all previous episodes and haven't missed a new one since. You managed to intrigue me so much about virology that I also listened to your entire course at Columbia (twice), read several virology textbooks and engaged in similar self-study in immunology as background to appreciate the field better. Obviously, I am not a microbiologist. In fact, I am just a lawyer (gasp) although my undergraduate degree was in organic chemistry. But thanks in large part to you, I have developed what I believe is well informed side-interest in the viral world.
All of this is to say that I feel I owe you a debt of gratitude. And it is for that reason, and also so that you might take my feedback more seriously, that I am writing you a private email as opposed to simply posting my concerns as a comment on the TWIV site.
For the first time in hundreds of hours of listening to TWIV, during TWIV 169, I actually felt like shutting down my browser right in the middle. In particular, I was completely turned off by the group's discussion of the NYAS H5N1 dual use forum. It is not that I even disagree with you on the merits of whether or not the details of the Fouchier research should be released. But the disdain and contempt the TWIVers showed for those who disagreed with them, especially Michael Osterholm, was unbecoming.
I have followed the recent dual use research debate and watched the 2-hour NYAS forum. Michael Osterholm might be wrong, but he struck me as sincere and entirely motivated by a genuine desire to discharge his mandate to the best of his ability. Yet the TWIVers were uncharacteristically hostile to him in particular and the other side more generally to the point of even impugning their good faith. There seemed to be no recognition that the NSABB is charged with a horrible responsibility, one which you have the luxury not to bear but just peck at. Instead there was just scoffing at their consideration of unquantifiable risks as fear mongering. And I don't think you in particular, Vince, were fair in your selective quotations and summary of the event. Your point about the case-fatality rate was obviously right but the show beat that straw horse to death, and you didn't offer much more than a caricature of the other side's arguments. You were all over Osterholm but were strangely silent about Arturo Casadevall who was in substantial agreement with him, but also carries the sort of credentials you seem to respect more.
What the TWIVers displayed in this show was an irony one sometimes sees in highly specialized science experts. They are so meticulous and careful in describing their own fields, the precise extent of their knowledge and the limited conclusions that can be drawn from their research. They are hyper-vigilant of outsiders misunderstanding the implications of their work or making exaggerated claims about it. Yet if their interest is piqued in an area outside their chosen fields, especially in policy or political issues that might affect them or their work, they will generalize and make sweeping conclusions and pronouncements with the best of them, assuming knowledge and judgment about outside matters (like national security) that would cause them to breathe fire if an outsider did the same in their field. [I have also been reading a lot of cognitive psychology lately, which has inspired me to call this phenomenon the "hubris heuristic".]
In fact, that whole part of TWIV 169 had a polemical flavor I'm quite used to as a lawyer but which I dabble in science to escape. How disappointing. One of my favorite things you did on your show back in the early days was ban the occasional political witticism (usually from Dickson and usually aimed at Bush). Maybe you can renew that wise impulse at this time.
PS. I was also really looking forward to the focus on viral epidemiology, hoping that the show would shed some light on some areas I still scratch my head about -- like how herd immunity is estimated for different pathogenic viruses. Maybe next time.

I also watched the New York Academy of Sciences hosts a panel of leading scientists, publishers, and ethicists who discuss issues surrounding controversial H5N1 research, which you were a part of (http://www.nyas.org/MemberCenter/AcademyNews.aspx?cid=8c61a204-36f6-4df8-8bd2-059882c5e287).
Dr Fouchier's research pinpointed a threat that mankind was not aware off and thanks to their findings we have been given the chance to act on it ahead of time. I think that Dr. Fouchiers findings should be made accessible to the public and the recombinant virus be shared with select research groups. With the extensive global effort to study influenza, there may already be other labs that also introduced similar mutations into influenza without checking them in ferrets, these people need to know.
The discussion, whether ferrets are a good model is futile, they are only a model, they may lie, they may exaggerate, they may even be precise, we cannot possible know - only guess. The only thing we know is, If ferrets are a good model this is very bad news. The question now is not IF but WHEN a human-transmissible H5N1 appears in the wild. May it be by nature, may it be by hand of a terrorist with a foreign or not so foreign name, or may it be by escaping from a research-lab. Dr. Osterholm mentioned we cannot be wrong on the risk we take studying this virus, but what about the risk NOT studying this virus ? Nature is the fiercest bioterrorist imaginable. Which risk is bigger the chance of this virus escape man-made or the virus appear nature-made ? I cannot predict the risk of the virus being released man-made but the epidemiologists at the CDC surely can predict the risk the virus appear being nature-made using mathematical modeling provided they have all the necessary information. Of course there is a risk of studying this virus, but I sleep better knowing researches do something about it rather than procrastinating the problem until it hits us.
No one can predict the implications of research only history will tell. This current situation is a precedent, so how do we need to learn from it. The role of governments is to protect people i.e. promoting research to develop vaccines and to provide and enforce guidelines to conduct research in a safe way. The role of the scientist is to conduct research in a responsible way, which relies on the freedom and duty to discuss findings publicly and being peer-reviewed. The role of publishers is to provide this platform. This system works if governments act on their responsibility to promote and fund vaccination research. This system works when scientists are well educated, are peer-reviewed, and discuss their findings publicly, this system works if publishers provide editorial guidance to provide a good quality publication suited for the public. However, this system does not work if politicians publicly scrutinize vaccination and governments inadequately fund research. This system also does not work if scientists proclaim sensational research before being reviewed. And this system does not work if the press publicly discusses, whether something should be published or not.
Sorry I had to get this of my chest ;-) and of course feel free to read/post this on TWIV.
PS I am still doing some research for a poliovirus lecture and stumbled across this wonderful video about Thomas Francis and Jonas Salk. I think this clip reminds us of the forgotten perils of pre-vaccination times and puts things in perspective. Maybe you want to share this on TWIV should there be suitable context. If you find a public relations contact for Delta airlines they may want to replace some of their more recent videos on vaccination:
Hail to the polio pioneers,
I googled for a copy of the uncensored Fouchier paper before the press frenzy and there were links that claimed to contain a a draft of the original manuscript. I have not verified or read any of them but it is only a matter of time before this information gets in the wrong hands. The good thing now is that it will be almost impossible to find this among all the comments and tweets about this subject. Mission accomplished ;-)

After Stephen Guild facilitated the AARP Foundation Finances 50+ program, a series of financial capability workshops co-developed with the Charles Schwab Foundation, he experienced a profound loss – and he couldn't be happier about it.
The three 90-minute sessions (which are currently available in 13 states and offered in English, Spanish and Chinese) inspired Stephen, 72, to invest in a personal trainer and a gym membership. The former university administrator subsequently dropped 10 pounds, lowered his cholesterol and reduced his "borderline diabetic" glucose levels.
Stephen Guild resolved to change his life after he answered a "big question" that he had also posed to participants of the workshop: When you think about your life, what is it that would make you feel more fulfilled?
Stephen's top priority was improving his health. "I don't think that people see [preventive health] as a financial decision," he said recently from his home in Seattle.
To pay for the gym membership and personal trainer, Stephen skipped a reunion of fellow Peace Corps volunteers who had served with him in Sierra Leone in the 1960s. "I really wanted to go to that, but I couldn't do both. I couldn't pay for my health, the gym fee, and go to my reunion. I had to make a choice."
Stephen credits the Finances 50+ workshops – akin to a free financial checkup – for prompting participants to focus on making difficult spending decisions and set achievable goals. "If you want to see your grandchildren in Maine three times per year, for instance, you are going to have to plan that out in some way," he said, "and that may mean you don't go to Bingo. Some people, they've never thought that way."

text: anyone have any experience disassembling a M85 to do a spring job on it? I've got mine disassembled, no problems. Got both hammerspring and trigger spring out no problems. Cleaned up the parts no problem. Put back together seemingly no problem - I put the hammerspring back in and before putting the trigger spring back in, cycled the trigger/hammer to make sure DA and SA work - everything seems fine without the trigger spring installed. Put the trigger spring back in, now can't pull the trigger back far enought to go through DA or to release SA cock. The trigger spring seems installed correctly, it compresses with pulling back trigger, but its like its preventing the trigger from going all the way back... any hints or suggestions?

A dream that I was overthrowing the Chinese government in a Hunger Games-esque future. With the assistance of information being fed secretly to me by my future self allowing me to be one step ahead of the military police at all times. I ensured my closest ally in the nobility survived his wife's poisoning attempt by switching their tea cups. And expected a high five from him for my efforts.
We also carried the power of the elements in luminescent boxes that were incredibly challenging to hide from authorities.
Is anyone else's subconscious this ridiculous?
I honestly never sleep well because every night I'm on some new heart pounding adventure.

The Canisius baseball team saw its eight-game winning streak come to an end in a 2-1 loss in 10 innings to the University of Akron at Canal Park on Wednesday afternoon. The Golden Griffins drop to 18-8 on the season.
Akron (13-12) got on the board in the bottom of the second as Matt Rembielak reached on an infield single and Cale Giddings followed with an RBI double to left to put the Zips up 1-0.
Canisius had a number of opportunities to get on the scoreboard but couldn't come through with the timely hit for most of the game as the Griffs went 2-for-13 with runners in scoring position. Junior Jesse Puscheck reached on a one-out walk in the fourth, and junior Connor Panas followed with a double to get two runners in scoring position. Sophomore Brett Siddall flew out and senior Ryan Coppinger struck out to strand the baserunners.
In the sixth, senior Jimmy Luppens reached on a one-out double and then moved to third on a wild pitch, but Puscheck and Panas struck out to end the threat. Pinch hitter Mike Krische singled with one out in the seventh and stole second base. He moved to third on a bunt, but senior Ronnie Bernick flew out to keep the Zips up 1-0. The Griffs continued to apply the pressure in the eighth as sophomore Anthony Massicci led off with a single but was picked off. Luppens drew a two-out walk and Puscheck followed with a single, but Panas lined out to third base to end the inning.
The Griffs finally got on the scoreboard in the ninth as Siddall led off with a single, moved to second on a sacrifice bunt and scored on a one-out double from senior Jesse Kelso. In the 10th, Luppens led off with a single but Puscheck hit into a double play.
Akron got a leadoff double from Rembielak in the 10th and after two walks loaded the bases, pinch hitter Brady Stewart singled to right to give the Zips the walk-off win.
Junior Eric Stolzenburg (1-1) took the loss by allowing one run in 1.1 innings of relief. Freshman Zachary Trumpler started and allowed one run in three innings. Senior Mike Tolsma threw 3.1 scoreless innings of relief while sophomore Iannick Remillard threw 1.2 innings of scoreless relief, striking out two batters.
Massicci, Luppens, Puscheck and Panas each had two hits on the day, as Canisius posted 11 hits and had double-digit hits for the 19th time on the season. Massicci had his eighth steal of the year while Krische stole his ninth base and his fourth in the last four games.
Canisius resumes its conference schedule this weekend with a three-game series at Fairfield. First pitch for Saturday's doubleheader is set for noon.
Notes: Canisius lost to Akron for the first time in four meetings… Griffs had an eight-game winning streak snapped for the second time this season… Puscheck reached base for the 29th consecutive game… Canisius had won its previous four one-run games and is now 4-2 in one-run games in 2014… Canisius drops to 0-2 in extra innings this season… Canisius struck out seven times, the most in the last six games… Canisius left 11 runners on base and has left at least 11 runners on base in seven of its eight losses… Panas and Luppens each extended their hitting streaks to 10 games.

As you said, the most noticeable change was when the frame went from plain to finger-grooved. The most recent change modified the extractor to better act as a loaded chamber indicator, as some (IMO, misguided) states are now requiring such things on all newly manufactured guns.
There have been several small internal modifications over the years, such as larger/differently shaped locking blocks, frame rail mods, different magazine followers and bodies, etc. None of that should impact you as an owner unless you decide to change some of the internal parts; in that case, you'd need to know what parts are involved so you don't mix-N-match a bad combination. You could head over to www.glocktalk.com and check the General Glocking forum and its subforum for more info on exactly what generation gun you have.
In any used handgun (not just a Glock), I'd make sure I fed it quality ammo (not the cheapest bargain-basement unmarked gunshow reloads); check the magazines, and if they look well-worn or the spring feels weak, get a few new ones; if it doesn't come with an instruction manual, find one and read it (I'll see if I can help with that); and for long-term storage/use, I'd suggest an extra recoil spring assembly (just a few dollars, cheap insurance in case the original breaks during shooting or disassembly/reassembly).
Welcome to The Dark Side. Most of us are pretty friendly here...
EDIT: Here's a link to an early Glock instruction manual; if you need a newer one, let me know and I'll see if I can scare one up.

Yeah just need to know cause downlaoding something and then uninstalling it 5 mins l8er isnt fun
I have played almost every other free MMO out there and none come close to Rappelz.
Rappelz has the best pet system ... you dont have to wait till your level 30 to get one .. as soon as you learn the summoning skill at level 8 you can spawn one ... if you have one that is.
You can tame a pet at level ten ... but you need a pet card which can be bought from the NPC's on the continent.
Pets are useful as they can fight along side of you. My turtle has saved my butt many times. On trainee island you will see people with other types of pets as they come there to train the pets on easy mobs or are using them to fight for new characters they are beginning.
The basic pets are Pantera, Tortus and 'whatever the rooster is called and I can't remember atm' and the cards for these pets can be bought at the NPC.
The cards also drop when you kill monsters (mobs).
You can also purchase rides with in game money (rupees) that last for 6 hours from the adventure guide.
There is an auction house where you can buy and sell stuff to other players even if you are not online
Don't be afraid to ask questions or restart your character .. there is no wait to delete a char or to reuse a name of a char... not like some other games I could mention.
People usually do quests till they are level 30 and then go to the dungeons and level up faster. Personally I never go to the dungeons as I like to solo with my Cleric.
Some players are past the 130 level and I don't believe there is a level cap.
Oct 15 2008 I believe part 2 of epic V is coming out
Never give anyone your password as the GMs will never ask for it .. they don't have to have it. Always make sure you are getting what you want in a trade and check around before buying .. someone may have it cheaper
Certain items are cash shop only (real money) but they do not effect game play or make your character better than another persons they are mostly appearance related or have to do with stamina ( a in game experience booster which cannot be bought or sold ) although stamina savers can be bought and sold except for the ones you get on trainee island
I could rant some more but dunna wanna swamp yah
Last edited by tameas; 10-06-2008 at 02:56 PM. Reason: replace train with tame
Hopefully this might be the game that I will stick forever

Apple Forced to Pay Samsung's Legal Fees in UK Court Order
Tiffany Kaiser

The UK court made this call after Apple posted an inaccurate notice on its UK website
After posting a snarky notice on its UK website, Apple was ordered to pay a majority of Samsung's legal fees.
Last month, a UK court ruling ordered Apple to
post a notice
to Samsung on its website, saying that the South Korean electronics maker didn't steal the designs of the iPad after all. Apple obeyed the order, but with a snarky tone that made sure to highlight a few facts in Apple's favor.
The UK court found that this notice was "false and misleading," and ordered Apple to take it down at once. Apple was
told to rewrite the apology
to Samsung, and it posted a notice on its website saying that its former "apology" was inaccurate. The new apology even
appeared in UK newspapers
However, a rewrite was not enough. The Court of Appeal of England and Wales has further ordered Apple to pay the legal fees of Samsung on an indemnity basis. The exact amount that Apple must pay is unclear, but reports are saying Apple will pay a majority of the fees.
The Apple-Samsung patent war began in April 2011 when Apple claimed Samsung was an
"iPhone, iPad copycat."
Apple worked pretty hard to ban Samsung's smartphones and tablets around the world, and successfully accomplished this in countries like Germany and Australia. Samsung launched a few lawsuits of its own regarding
3G patents
, and was also able to lift the ban on its Galaxy Tab 10.1 in Australia in December 2011. However, Samsung
wasn't so lucky in Germany
, where the Galaxy Tab 10.1 is still banned.
Back in August, a jury in the U.S. District Court for the Northern District of California reached an unfavorable verdict for Samsung, saying that the South Korean electronics maker was
guilty of violating technology patents
. In other words, most of Samsung's smartphones and tablets in question were found guilt of copying Apple's iPhone and iPad designs. It was ordered to pay $1.05 billion in damages to Apple.
Samsung suffered further losses in the U.S. when an ITC judge ruled that
Samsung violated four Apple patents
, including the flat front face with wider borders at the top and bottom, the lozenge-shaped speaker about the display screen; the translucent images for applications displayed on the screen, and the device's ability to detect when a headset is plugged in.
The Verge
"This is about the Internet. Everything on the Internet is encrypted. This is not a BlackBerry-only issue. If they can't deal with the Internet, they should shut it off." -- RIM co-CEO Michael Lazaridis

Just wanted to say a big thanks to whomever produces this site. I have been searching for informatin on TEFL and this is just what the doctor ordered. I have a few queries and their slightly stream of conciousness, so queries will be coming thick and fast.
1) I would like to teach TEFL (Thailand is my choice, at the moment) however I did not pursue higher education. Many of the sites I have read require BA's in english, does this mean that TEFL is out of my reach? I am 30 years old and although I enjoyed english as a schoolboy, at the time I didn't really enjoy school!
2) I have been reading information on TEFL courses and am a little nervous as they seem very intense. I am considering doing an online course, in order to learn the basics and to get used to a learning mentality once again. Is this a good idea?
3) Does anyone have any experience or advice on this TEFL provider tesolonline.com. I am aware that there are some disreputable companies trading on the internet. I believe this site to be reputable but is their qualification highly regarded?
4) Ideally I would like to to do a CELTA certified course, but the providers of said courses seem to want higher learning graduates. Will the fact that I have completed an online TEFL course improve my prospects?
That's all for now. Thank you in advance for any advice and/or encouragement that you can provide.

14 pounds is a tiny turkey. Be careful.
I've heard horror stories about frozen turkeys and outside frying situations.
Does this pose a significant fire risk, or is it a bit safer since it seems to be all contained/no flames?
*EDIT: 24 and I've never tried fried turkey. You have no idea how much I have wanted to try it.
I'm wondering if you could use this to brew beer. How many gallons is it?
Remember, safety first!
Very good reviews (4.5+ out of 5.0) over at masterbuilt.com and TONS of great reviews (4 out of 5 stars) over at qvc.com
I wonder how many corn dogs or chicken breast tenders it would hold???
And I wonder how many people are going to use expedited shipping, in attempt to have this in time for Thanksgiving.
This seems kinda like http://www.amazon.com/Masterbuilt-23011014-Butterball-Electric-Capacity/dp/B00BWKN0H2 -- only $33 cheaper.
Seems a little spendy for cooking turkeys. Unless you love them an awful lot.

Sorry if the song is now stuck in your head.

That one's the 20-lb size. The woot one is the 14-lb size.

I was just thinking the same thing. You have to be pretty damn desperate for a turkey fryer to take the chance of this being delivered on time.
Good luck, suckers!
hhorders wrote:14 pounds is a tiny turkey. Be careful.
They're small this year, 13 to 16 lbs. but we normally make a 22 lb. bird. We also don't fry the bird so we're not in for 1. The home shopping shows are selling these for a lot more money.
In for one. 1 hour to cook a 14 pound bird. Plus, you do super bowl parties, you're dropping the basket one time for 50 wings. Priceless.
Ive read some reports in the past that the electric fryers have problems restoring temperature after dropping the turkey. I hope they fixed this problem.
We've had this for a couple years now (probably a previous model by now). It works perfectly.
Someone asked above about frozen turkeys...that's a definite NO! Now...you won't burn your house down with this like you would with an open flame, but you'd have scolding hot oil all over you and anything else in the vicinity.
Fried turkeys rock...they really are delicious. It's pricey to do them (with the cost of peanut oil) but, man...look forward to it every year!
What are the chances of this making it to my door before Thanksgiving if I select 1 day shipping?

The same chances you would have if you selected Two-Day Shipping..except greater?

I sent masterbuilt an email -- if this thing is big enough and the temp is low enough, I could seriously see this as an awesome way to steep the wort.

I was at a mead-making workshop last Saturday and the couple running it totally recommended an electric turkey fryer for brewing, and brought one to show us how it works. The best parts are the constant temperature and the valve for easy transfer to the fermentation vessel.
So, oddly, I'm in the market for something like this, as of five days ago. But I don't know if I'm ready yet....
icthulhu wrote:This seems kinda like http://www.amazon.com/Masterbuilt-23011014-Butterball-Electric-Capacity/dp/B00BWKN0H2 -- only $33 cheaper.
I couldn't help but notice that the amazon fryer is listed under patio, lawn and garden items, which to me strongly suggests it is instended to be used outside and not inside the house.
Consider all the stories of things gone wrong with frying turkeys, that would seem a safe suggestion.
So tonight was grocery night. Fareway finally had a deal on strip steaks, my wife's favorite.
Like many stores do at this time of year, they gave me a free 12 lbs turkey. This seems like a small bird, but it will be perfect for our needs.
There are 2 ways I am considering preparing the bird, neither of which I have tried. First, deep fry.... the other option is normal roasting with some duck fat. SOOOO. wine woot has duck fat and truffle butter.. And here we have a turkey fryer...
So, ive owned one of these for about a year and have some notes to share:
This is the 2012 model, it fits up to a 14 pound bird but reliably you only want to cook upto a 12 pounder. And what if I told you you could cook 2 turkeys if you are concerned about not having enough.
The fryer works great for its intended purpose. They mention you can use it for boils and steaming, but only the boiling works really.
The new 2013 model ships with a single piece lid without a lid filter as well as a wire mesh basket instead of the solid metal one, but is otherwise exactly the same as the one here.
Remember that even with proper filtering the oil will only last 6months or 3 turkeys, which ever happens first. Oh, and DONT POUR HOT OIL BACK INTO ITS PLASTIC CONTAINER.
BTW, right now if you have cable or satelite, you can spend the whole day channel hopping watching the infomercial. I noticed today you could go a solid 5 hours watching it.
I think Its a good deal and it produces really tasty turkey.
I got one of these sometime last year on Amazon, and this is a steal at $65. I have found about 13 pounds is the most you can fit in there, and it will be done in just about an hour. You can re-use the oil for 4 or maybe 5 turkeys. I also found that injecting the turkey doesn't really make a big difference with this technique but brining overnight beforehand totally does. Just make 110% sure the turkey is totally defrosted with not even a speck of ice inside before putting it in the oil.
No, this is not made to be used outside.
So far as safety goes, it's not any more dangerous than any other deep fryer, which is all this really is - a large deep fryer with a turkey shaped basket and dangle hook for dropping and removing the bird.
Disclaimer: Woot inc. is not responsible for damages due to burning down the trailer park you reside in,
What if you use it with a Norbest Turkey?
If you do intend to use this for Thanksgiving....ALDI's is selling this same model for $90
I've used the larger version of this...it works great. The heat is way more consistent than the big ole propane burner.
And...it deep fries twinkies!
Why must you tempt me so, Woot?
I think I'm going to stick with the ol' Alton Brown vegetable broth brine and ripping hot oven method.
I'm a long-time brine 'n roaster...quite good at it. But We've been frying turkeys for years now. Picked this one up from Woot last year. It worked great! Nice size for my family, however as others noted, you're talking about a 12-13lb bird, which some consider small. There's so much other stuff on the table, and 12lb is plenty for my extended family of 9 with leftovers to spare. Comparing this to my large-size propane roaster, it works well, stows much smaller, and is pretty convenient to whip out for donuts and fish fries, etc. The generous dunking strainer is really nice to work with for those meals. The only real modification to my approach was having the bird out at room temp a little longer during the day-of prep, but really I'm not sure how much effect that had. I'd do it again for sure. If you haven't tried cajun injection, it pairs well with fried turkey. Don't expect very fancy construction. Even on the stainless model, the build is minimal where it can be, and rugged where it needs to be. Just right, IMO, for something you whip out just a handful of times a year.
I don't have the counter space or the cupboard space. I'd have to cook on the deck and store in the basement.
Ad sounds good - But too many bad reviews/complaints to consider purchasing one. Just don't want to deal with the hassle if I get a bad unit.
I'm buying a small turkey and going to try my Ronco ShowTime..the original big one.
Anyone know if I would be able to fry other foods, like egg rolls and pickles in this fryer?
I have the larger version of this fryer (mine can fry up to a 20lb bird). While we do use it a couple of times a year for turkeys, we use it much more often for low country boils and seafood. Simply fill it with water as opposed to oil and steam shellfish, potatoes, corn, etc.
Clean up is a breeze with mine. Everything except for the control panel (slides off) can go right in the dishwasher. The drain valve works great for bottling your oil back up for later uses. Looks like this smaller version works in the same manner.
Highly recommend.

They're small this year? Turkeys are domestically 'grown', fed in flocks. We're not talking wild turkeys here.
From Woot Facebook,It's 2 gallons:
"----i bought 3 of them last season for xmas gifts. takes just shy of 2 gallons of oil. as expected takes a while to heat up but fries beautifully. easy to clean using a hide away spigot. the basket is nice and stirdy, can hang it on the edge when you lift it up. i like to do 7-9lb turkey breasts or two roasting hens in this. have done party wings for a crowd, about 4lbs at a time"
If your kettles are induction ready I would go with this if you want to brew 5 gallon batches indoors.
(plug to W00T over lords)
I have one of these and have used it for about 2 years. I find that it works very well in all situations. I have used it to fry pretty much everything under the sun. Fried twinkies? Check. Fried Snickers? Check. Fried pickles? HELL YES! Oh, and it works pretty good for those turkey things, too.
Okay, keeping it real, I've really had very good luck with this thing. Biggest problem I find with it is the breakaway power cord. It connects via magnets and they just aren't very powerful. Aside from that, it takes a reasonable amount of time to heat up (indicates when the oil is at the desired temperature) and cooks very evenly. I find that I use it most to cook up hot wings for my family as well as for fries, but it really is a very diverse product. Don't think you can just use it for turkeys.
A few notes I have: a.) if you use it inside, it stinks. Don't say I didn't warn you. b.) if you use it inside, it stinks. Seriously, you were warned. c.) take the spigot out of the hidden panel on the back before you start frying. If you don't, it will burn your little fingers. d.) make sure that if you are reusing your oil that you use cheesecloth to strain out the crud (yeah, that's the technical term for it) that falls to the bottom.
That's all I've got to add. I wholeheartedly endorse this product, and this is a great price.

The site is also for those POWs, who have returned, those still waiting to come home, and all the MIA who are, as yet, unaccounted for. You Will Never Be Forgotten
My mission is to provide, through my poetry, the "WELCOME HOME" and understanding you all deserve. As mentioned above, my father served during WWII. My ex-husband served in Da Nang, SVN 1969/70, my son is still serving in the US Army, and I had a number of pen pals in Vietnam. I have, therefore, great empathy for all Veterans and I truly hope that my words will serve to bring a measure of comfort to you.
Along with my poetry, you'll find quotes from other poems and books. In all cases, I've given credit to those authors. I have long admired the ability of the human spirit to triumph over adversity and seemingly impossible odds – that awesome act of putting one foot in front of the other.

a place for zinesters - writers and readers
Views: 53
There's really two questions here: 1) Is this copyright infringement; and 2) Does it matter?
The answer to the first question is a great big YES. Although I'm not sure where the essay was published, the lifespan for copyright in the US is death + 70 years (a completely insane, unfair, anti-democratic length of time, but that's how it goes), and the law is similar in most other countries. So you can assume that something published in 1988 is almost without a doubt definitely still under copyright (unless you can find definite proof that it's been released into the public domain by the author or the publisher).
In copyright law there's something called "fair use" which refers to the ways in which you're legally allowed to use content created by others as part of your own work. Unfortunately there are no clear cut rules about fair use - it's something that's constantly being renegotiated and redefined in court cases all the time. When it comes to academic writing, there are some pretty clearly established precedents for what constitutes fair use, but this is kind of the result of a compromise between two fiercely opposed attitudes.
Academic publishers tend to be very overzealous about protecting what they publish (because their entire business model is based around gouging people with exorbitant access fees), but there's also a long tradition of openness and intellectual sharing within the academic community. So to grossly oversimplify: it's largely a situation where writers/researchers/scholars often want their work to be free and openly shared, but the organizations who publish their work want to restrict it as much as possible. The way this balances out is that publishers have come to accept that the things they publish might be copied and distributed for free in an educational setting (I've never heard of a teacher being sued for handing out photocopies to their class), but they'll crack down on any commercial uses or anything that's outside "the academy" (that's you).
Fortunately you have an option available between including the entire article and just paraphrasing it, and that's quotation. This is something that has a long history of being protected as fair use, but only if it's done correctly. The key is to make sure you don't quote too much (no more than 2 or 3 successive paragraphs, and only a fraction of the total article -- how small of a fraction is hard to say, but if it's more than a 1/5 I'd say definitely try scaling back), and also that you provide your own commentary on what's being quoted - which it sounds like you're planning to do (just make sure there's more of your own writing than there is quotation). If you think you can convey what you need to convey using a mix of paraphrasing and quotation, I'd recommend doing that.
The second question - does it matter? - is much harder to answer. There's a pretty damn good chance that whatever big academic journal published this essay two and a half decades ago isn't going to ever find your zine. Even if they do, you're not printing off millions of these things are selling them for a high profit margin - you're still small potatoes - so probably the worst that would happen is you'd be slapped with a cease and desist letter, and you'd have to stop selling the zine. So I'd say that your legal risk is very very low. There's a theoretical possibility that you'd get sued, but you're probably more likely to win the lottery.
There's also an ethical component to consider. Someone put a lot of effort into writing that essay (presumably someone you respect), and they may not want it circulating around for free. If you're really dead-set on reprinting the whole thing, you can always try to contact the author. It's possible they have a deal worked out where they retain re-printing rights over the essay and might give you permission to use it in full. They might also just not get back to you, or they might get back to you only to tell you that the publisher owns all the rights (and good luck getting permission from them).
Yikes! Sorry for the lengthy response. I guess I'm feeling verbose this morning. Anyway, I hope it's helpful. :)
hey, thanks a lot tim! i looked up the writer up, and it seems like she's charging $1 per copy of the article reprinted. i doubt that she would make an exception for a small run print zine, so i may just do it anyway, or just print half of it, or something.

Robin Holloway: premieres in San Francisco and Beijing(November 2012)
Holloway premieres in the New Year include his new orchestrations of Debussy songs for Renée Fleming in San Francisco, and an orchestral work In China to be premiered in Beijing.
Robin Holloway travels to San Francisco on 10 January for the world premiere of his new Debussy song orchestrations for soprano Renée Fleming. Michael Tilson Thomas conducts the San Francisco Symphony in ten settings of Paul Verlaine's poetry, which Holloway has titled C'est l'extase after one of the chosen songs. Orchestra and conductor have long championed Holloway's music, commissioning a sequence of works including Clarissa Sequence, the Fourth Concerto for Orchestra and the earlier Debussy arrangement En blanc et noir, and presenting the US premieres of the Third Concerto for Orchestra and the Viola Concerto.
Holloway writes of the new work: "From nearly 20 Verlaine settings made by Debussy early in his career I selected the Ariettes oubliées, six songs which by common consent don't function as a cycle, together with another group of three and a singleton. The ten songs are reordered into a key scheme, with a trajectory of moods and tempi, and I've composed transitions of between 6 and 20 bars where necessary. The last song is prefaced by a longer introduction and an extended coda which captures the surge of the sea in the poem to provide a brilliant and sonorous conclusion. As with En blanc et noir, and my Mary Queen of Scots Schumann songs orchestration Reliquary, my aim has been to capture not the letter of Debussy's music, but its spirit."
In addition to C'est l'extase, the San Francisco Symphony and Michael Tilson Thomas give the first performance on 17 January of Ocean Voyage, a 20-minute orchestral excerpt from the composer's mixed media work Peer Gynt. Holloway describes his epic work as "a cross between televized concert / opera / ballet / play, plus animated cartoon film (à la Fantasia, and taking into account all the amazing advances since), plus gorgeous filmed travelogue". The Ocean Voyage describes Peer's 30-year journey with its extended episodes in the Americas, the Far East, India, Egypt and China, and the San Francisco premiere will use the composer's purely orchestral version with the visual imagery in the mind's eye.
Holloway in China
Also in the New Year the National Centre for the Performing Arts in Beijing plays host to the world premiere of Holloway's 15-minute orchestral work In China. This is the musical fruit of the composer's trip to China in 2011, as part of the Composing China project. Along with four other composers Holloway travelled around the country, on plane, bus, boat and train, visiting sprawling cities and remote rural villages.
Holloway's resulting score is more a response to visual stimuli, ranging from the vastness of the physical landscape to the exploding urban chaos, than to the Chinese folk music he experienced. In China, which will be premiered by the NCPA Concert Hall Orchestra, joins a series of Holloway works initiated by travel to countries or cities, including the Third Concerto for Orchestra's impressions of South America and Scenes from Antwerp.
Holloway's 70th birthday is celebrated in 2013.
