Re: Alcohol stoves in use?
I do not care to deal with propane. Too complicated. I see no reason to change from my pressure alcohol stove. It's simple and reliable.
Re: Alcohol stoves in use?
Ditto on the rubber jar opening discs. They're cheep and mine have lasted years, or did until I put them on before allowing the burner to cool...oops.
Re: Alcohol stoves in use?
I bought an origo 3000 at a swap meet and it didn't come with the gaskets either. Rather than buying them for $16 each plus shipping I got a piece of rubber from mcmaster with some other stuff and cut my own.
I found online that they are supposed to be 92 mm in diameter. This just covers the raised part around the grate like skygazer said. Unfortunately I didn't know the thickness and guessed. I got 1/32" thick Buna-N rubber, shore 40A hardness. 40A is described as the hardness of a pencil eraser.
While the gaskets initially worked ok, they seem to wrinkle and then stop sealing. I'm not sure if they are just too thin or if the buna-N can't stand up to the alcohol. The underside of the gasket gets all wet with condensed alcohol. It's supposed to have good alcohol resistance, but maybe something else would be better.
Has anyone tried bicycle tubes? Those are butyl rubber.
I did manage to also use a bit of the rubber to seal the inflation adapter for my dinghy into the hose for the pump. I have about a dozen different sized ends for the hose but none are the right size. So even if the gaskets don't work I still got something for the $6. And I still have most of the sheet left. I think it would work well glued to the bottom of stuff to keep it from sliding so easily on boat tables and counters. And dampen hatch vibrations.
Re: Alcohol stoves in use?
I "discovered a trick" that seems to eliminate flareups with my pressurized alcohol stove. I just put the stove back on the boat today. I have been cooking on it at home for a few days. If I open the burner valve for a count of 4 then shut it. I pump up the pressure first. Put a heavy CI pan on the burner and light the alcohol pool under the burner. Let it burn out completely with the CI pan absorbing any flare ups. After it is out, open the valve and light it, Voilla! It is hot and blue and roaring. I think having the CI roof over the burner helps it warm up properly. The CI pan really does absorb any early flareups while the original alcohol burns off. It worked every time. Try it and let me know what you pressurized alcohol stove users think.
I love my pressurized alcohol stove now that it isn't a potential source of third degree burns to get it cooking.
Re: Alcohol stoves in use?
Nothing really new to add except a "me too!".
I started with a Kenyon Homestrand 206 model. I nearly singed an eyebrow off in a flare-up when starting it the first time. (I was new, sue me.)
I decided that I really like cooking with alcohol, but didn't like the pressure aspect, so I retro-fitted an Origo 4000. As everyone previous has said, thick cookware is the key to cooking with fewer BTU's. Cheap, thin "pot metal" just lets the precious heat escape.
I liveaboard, and cook regularly. Everything from grilling, to the Origo, to a microwave oven. The simplicity and safety are what appeal to me the most. I can wait a couple extra minutes for the water to boil.

As for propane, it can be difficult to retrofit a proper installation onto a boat that wasn't designed for it in the first place, especially for boats 30' and under. I'd strongly consider it if I lived aboard, but as a weekend warrior/daysailer, the NP alcohol works fine as long as it's used properly.
Re: Alcohol stoves in use?
I have a 2-burner Origo on the boat and love it. My buddy's boat has an old pressurized stove on it, and as stated you have to know how to light it but alcohol is a lot easier to find in foreign ports, or so I am told, I will find out soon enough. Also alcohol is cheap, grab a gallon from the hardware store and it has lasted me 2 seasons of every weekend and 2 week long trips. I don't have gaskets and have been fine as far as evaporation. Friends use those little round pieces of rubber that you use to open hard to open jars, you know for extra grip, as gaskets prob a lot cheaper option than buying the Origo ones.
Also propane retrofits need specialized storage for the bottles and a lot of hassle, not worth it in my opinion when the alcohol works so darn good!

Re: Alcohol stoves in use?
I just went and looked at a spare Origo up in my barn, to visualize how the neoprene would be inserted. This stove came with a boat that I haven't had time to work on yet.
To my surprise, there was a neoprene disk on the burner! It fits over the circular wick area with the screen top, and under the metal disk that swings back and forth with the flame size control knob. It's just big enough to cover the first raised ring stamped into the housing of the alcohol cannister.
I think it's a great idea, and would not know about it without this discussion. By eye the neoprene is around a 1/16 of an inch thick. OK, for the sake of accuracy I just went back and measured the thickness. It is 1/16th of an inch, perhaps a (red) hair over. A bit hard to be accurate as it is very soft and the caliper jaws compress it.
This softness is what distinguishes it from inner tube, more than the thickness. Soft enough to conform easily to the gap, without deforming the metal. I'm definitely going to put one on the boat that is in the water, to at least use when leaving the boat.
Thank you to those who brought it up in this discussion.

He was a well known photographer in London who spent many hours taking pictures of the area around Elephant & Castle. He was regularly seen photographing an sketching scenes from the neighborhood, but to authorities, one can never be too careful when it comes to dealing with terrorism. As Reuben Powell describes the scene: "the car skidded to a halt like something out of Starsky & Hutch and this officer jumped out very dramatically and said, 'what are you doing?' I told him that I was photographing the building and he said he was going to search me under the Anti-Terrorism Act." Mr. Powell wound up being handcuffed, brought to a police station, and had DNA samples taken before he was placed in a cell.
It appears that taking photographs in a public area, particularly one in which a police station might be seen in the photo is a serious crime because it subjects police officials to having their stations known to terrorists. Police cite Section 44 of the Terrorism Act, 2000, to justify harassing photographers who dare to take pictures in public. We live in strange times when a photographer can be hauled off to jail for taking pictures of a wedding that happen to show police pushing members of a crowd.
I am certain al-Qaeda has a well armed brigade of photographers who can wield a camera with the best of the British army.

Maybe a mod can make this an announcement or something to where as many people can see it.
Clean up day, if any of you have hunted the anahuac/wallisville area, you know that there is an abundance of old blinds and blind post littering the marsh and river. We are going to try and get a group together and get out with chain saws to help us out with removeing these old posts. we are going to be working on short notice because of weather, winds, tides, etc...We really need people with air boats since we will be aiming for a day with strong northerns and a low tide. I would not be able to make it due to it having to be on short notice with work, weather and all, but my oldest is out there more than i am and knows the area way better than most people so i'll send him out to help. He wont be able to go where air boats can get but everything else should be able to get to with the surface drive. Lets shoot for early February since its after duck season is over but the northerns are still blowing hard enough to empty the bay.
Let me know if you would be willing to help and if i forgot anything feel free to add on

Two Springfield women injured in Hwy. 26 crash
SUV hits embankment, flips east of Prineville
PRINEVILLE, Ore. - Two Springfield women were treated at a Prineville hospital but escaped serious injury Sunday afternoon when their SUV struck a rock embankment and overturned on Highway 26 east of Prineville, Crook County sheriff's deputies said.
Deputies responded around 3:45 p.m. to a report of a single-vehicle crash on the highway, about 20 miles east of Prineville, said Sgt. James Savage. Initial reports indicated two injured people were pinned in their vehicle, he said.
Arriving deputies found a red 1997 Isuzu Rodeo on its passenger side, blocking the westbound lane, Savage said. Witnesses on the scene freed the women from the car.
An investigation found that the driver, Kyrsten Brandson, 20, was heading west and negotiating a corner when she lost control of the SUV, which collided with a rock embankment and flipped onto its side, Savage said.
Brandson and passenger Anna Degallado were taken by Crook County Fire and Rescue ambulance to Pioneer Memorial Hospital for treatment. A nursing supervisor said later that both were in good condition and due for release from the hospital Sunday evening.
Speed is believed to be a factor in the crash, Savage said, but no citations had been issued as the investigation continues.
The crash, cleanup and investigation reduced Highway 26 to one lane for about an hour, Savage said. Deputies also were assisted by Oregon State Police, an off-duty OSP trooper, ODOT and National Recovery Towing.

My 8 1/2 year old daughter just passed her hunting safety course on Saturday :-). It was a 6 day (3 hours a night) and a day (6 hour in the field) course. I was very proud of her since the course instructor said, "She was only the third 8 year old to pass and first 8 year old girl he as passed in 36 years". Yes, they do actually fail students. 6 boys failed the written test and 2 more young boys failed the field test (one dry fired a bow and the other had unsafe muzzle control on the 45 min. simulated pheasant hunt.
Here is the question. I am trying to decide between the Remington 870™ Wingmaster® Jr. and Remington 870 Express Youth Magnum. The main reason I'm leaning towards the Wingmaster is because it has a shorter barrel (18 3/4") compared to the Express at (21"). It also has a 1" shorter stock.
So at her size: 8 1/2 years old, 60lbs and 4' 1". Yes, she's a small girl. At the field course she had to succesfully load and shot a Winchester 20 ga. Ranger. She was able to do it, but the gun was a little heavy for her.
We were at Sportsman's and the Remington Express seemed much easier for her to handle. They didn't have a youth Wingmaster to shoulder.
So do you think the extra money (Wingmaster) is worth it? I like the Express for having the synthetic stock (thinking it will handle more stesss since there will be 2 more of my kids to get the gun I decide on).
By the way I plan on doing a lot of trap shooting with her this summer and her first hunts will be next year in the Duck Blind.
Thanks for your time and thoughts,

Looking over the rosters of each team it was very tough. Most of the teams are very balanced. The two teams that seem like they will be tough comeptition are #1's team and Motown's. There are a few other teams that may be tough as well but they have a lot of question marks on there roster with injury concerns or players that are on new teams.

Venezuelan leader, Hugo Chavez is massing troops on his nation's border with Columbia on ground that the United States and Columbia are preparing to invade his country. He told his nation that war was possible and warned that "if you want peace, prepare for war" and blamed the United States for preparing an invasion designed to take control of Venezuela's oil. He was alarmed at the agreement signed last month under which US military personnel will be allowed to be present at several Columbian military bases on grounds they are needed to deal with drug traffickers. Once again, America's outdated policies on drugs only result in tension and the possibility of further violence.
Perhaps, President Obama still has not got the message from the American people that further war was not in their minds when they elected him. There is no logical need to place American forces in a foreign nation knowing there already is tension between two nations. Get them out of harm's way and allow local military or police units to deal with drug issues.
Of course, if the president really wanted to end the drug problem he would urge making drugs legal and a government monopoly.

Each semester, years of business lectures and months of preliminary case presentations culminate in the Cameron School of Business Case Competition in which senior general business majors present their analyses on a pre-determined case study. This semester, Dr. Beena George's seminar students took on the task of analyzing the current situation and future opportunities for Apple, Inc., and presented their findings on Nov. 30 at the Fall 2012 Case Competition.
Sixteen students were grouped into four teams to present their research and analyses to a panel of nine distinguished judges with a variety of professional backgrounds.
The first place team was comprised of Jack Brett, Michelle Jabbour, Samantha Knowles and Shawn Petricko. Mei Wan Tong, the president of the Cameron School of Business Advisory Board and director at Wells Fargo, donated the prize money for the competition, and presented the winning team with $500 at the awards luncheon. Students had the opportunity to meet with the judges during the awards luncheon and get a glimpse of what awaits them in the business world. For senior Shawn Petricko, the senior seminar experience gave him the ability to integrate everything that he had learned at the Cameron School of Business.
"With the guidance of Dr. George, and the help of my team, I really felt that I had the support to push myself to think critically about the projects, as well as have a little fun in the process," Petricko said. "The case competition gave me the opportunity to use my skill set and rely on my teammates' skills to come up with viable solutions to real world problems."
Petricko plans to put those skills to work after graduation and continue on to graduate school.
Fellow senior and first place winner Samantha Knowles, said the course allowed her to engage in business activities such as teamwork, company analyses, operating a business and delivering well-planned presentations. The case competition helped her to "think outside of the box and not always take the safe route." With these skills, Knowles hopes to continue working in the nonprofit sector in fundraising, marketing, community outreach and event planning.
Jack Brett, who delivered the winning presentation, said the senior seminar experience helped him solidify business concepts from his other classes and gauge how prepared he was for the business world. He said Dr. George's guidance and knowledge helped him gain the most he possibly could from the class.
"I now feel confident to go and find a job and will not be intimidated by tasks that at first seem impossible," he said.
Brett plans to earn a degree in both finance and marketing, while playing his final year for the UST men's soccer team.
The professional judges included: Jennifer Flores, Business Process Analyst at Perdue Brandon Fielder Collins & Mott, LLP; John Haynes, Chief Commercial Officer at Boardwalk; Richard Hyland, Co-Founder, Managing Director & Principal Consultant at Web Data Ventures; Vreij Kolandjian, Industry Partner at Yellowstone Capital, Inc. and Advisory Board Member at Linley Capital; Aileen McCormick, Chief Executive Officer at Amerigroup West Region; Philip Moore, Business Continuity Manager at Amegy Bank; David Stoner, Global Quality General Manager at Shell and member of Cameron School of Business Advisory Board; Rosalind Wyatt, founder of Marketing Elements and CoInside, and founder and president of Sustainable Houston; and Karen Yale, Director of Administrative Services at EP Energy and Vice President of Nominations for the Cameron School of Business Alumni Board.

Sold Out $23.99
2013 vintage is available for $18.99
Lapostolle Cuvee Alexandre Chardonnay 2006
Chardonnay from Chile
Winemaker's Notes
Brilliant golden-yellow color. Intense, elegant and clean nose, where the tropical fruits, pineapple and citrus, predominate on very nice toasty notes coming from a well integrated wood. Delicious, fleshy and nicely-structured wine in the mouth, with a well balanced acidity that keeps it alive. A good alliance of freshness and complexity.
Critical Acclaim
Wine Spectator - "Nicely focused, with a racy core of fig, hazelnut and pear notes that stays pure and elegant as the toasty edge remains in the background. The finish is long and juicy. Very stylish. Drink now through 2008. 8,000 cases imported. "
The Wine Advocate - "The 2006 Chardonnay Atalyas Vineyard "Cuvee Alexandre" is light gold-colored with an attractive bouquet of toasty oak, poached pear, and butterscotch. This leads to a creamy-textured wine with tropical flavors and a hint of hazelnuts. The wine has fine depth and length but lacks complexity. Drink it over the next 2-3 years. "
Lapostolle Winery
Lapostolle was founded by Alexandra Marnier Lapostolle and her husband Cyril de Bournet in 1994. The Marnier Lapostolle family, founders and owners of the world-renowned liqueur Grand Marnier, is famous for producing spirits and liqueurs, but the family has also been involved in winemaking for generations. In creating Lapostolle, the family has pursued the same uncompromising approach to quality that make Grand Marnier a global success. Its objective is as simple as it is ambitious: to create world-class wines using French expertise and superb terroirs of Chile. Today, Lapostolle owns 370 hectares in three different vineyards and produces a total of 200,000 cases spread over Sauvignon Blanc, Chardonnay, Cabernet Sauvignon, Merlot, Carmenere and Syrah. Lapostolle is distributed in more than 60 countries around the world. View all Lapostolle Wines
About ChileView a map of Chile wineries (CHEE-lay)Long and thin, Chile has a lot of land north to south. The wine region here is a series of districts based near Santiago. The vineyards are protected by the Pacific on the west and the Andes mountains on the east. This could help explain why the climate changes more from east to west than north to south – also why the country has remained phylloxera free. Quite a few wineries in Chile were founded by large French wine companies. Seeing the potential of the country, vineyards were bought and planted by these French folks and the results tell of a smart investment. Some of these wineries include: Los Vascos, Casa Lapostolle and Cousino Macul. And while the inspiration may have been French, but the wines here are quite Chilean.

Notable FactsThe main regions of Chile include Maipo (pronounced MY-poh), known for reds like Merlot, Cabernet Sauvignon and Carmenere; Casablanca Valley, a region producing delicious Sauvignon Blanc, as well as other whites & some reds; Colchaugua, an inland district creating amazing red wines from Syrah and Cabernet Sauvignon, particularly in the Apalta sub-region; and Rapel Valley, settled right under Maipo and producing the same red varietals. A couple of smaller regions to watch include Limari and Elqui, two valleys further north, producing some delicious cool-climate Chardonnay and Bio Bio, an area further south, which is also focused on cool-climate varieties. Chilean wines are growing in exports and more consumers are enjoying the delicious values coming from the country. Red wines of the region, though they cannot be generalized, make the whole gamut of wine quality – quaffable to collectible. Cabernet Sauvignon, Merlot & Carmenere are the main players, though Syrah is also making a splash. Some of the best reds are blends of the above varieties. As for whites, Sauvignon Blanc is typically crisp, herbal and racy, while Chardonnay is richer in style with full-bodied texture and tropical fruit flavors.

This effort by Patrick Vieira was the third goal in a rather routine home win over Newcastle as the Gunners closed in on a League and Cup double in 1998. So a key goal for Arsenal? Not so much.
It was simply the aesthetic beauty of the goal that makes it so memorable.
It started when Marc Overmars intercepted the ball just inside Newcastle's half. The Dutchman rolled the ball forward to Nicolas Anelka who laid it off to Vieira just outside the center circle.
As the lanky Frenchman strode towards goal, the Newcastle defenders failed to close him down. So Vieira put his head down and let it fly from 35 yards.
His thunderbolt of shot flew on a rope into the top right-hand corner. Shay Given had no chance.
It was a strike that typified the young midfielder at the time. Powerful, fearless and all-conquering.

I'm surprised that no one responded to your question. I am also a Sig newbie, but no stranger 1911-type take down which is what the P290 is. I have to tell you, I don't think I'm going to be able to field strip this pistol by myself without rigging a stationary punch to push the slide release out from the other side while I hold the slide back in the proper position with both hands. In every other 1911-type field strip that I have performed, I was able to hold the slide back with one hand with my thumb one the back strap and four fingers wrapped around the slide. Then I could manipulate the removal of the slide stop with the other hand. I can't do that on the P290 because of the small size and recoil spring tension. It takes both hands.
And then how in the devil am I going to get the slide release back in without a third hand. I too would like to hear what others are doing to field strip this pistol.

Arsenal players will wear GPS vests during their pre-season games this summer to help manage and improve their fitness levels, Arsène Wenger has revealed.
The devices were used for the first time last summer in a friendly at Barnet and the squad were again seen sporting them during Wednesday's game against a Malaysia XI.
The vests track and record the movements of individual players on the pitch as well as measuring heart rate and helping to prevent injuries by assessing a player's work load.
"We use them in the friendlies because it gives us an indication of the fatigue levels of the players and the distances they [are] managing to do," said Wenger.
"It's interesting for us to improve the fitness of the players in pre-season.
"We are not allowed to use them in the Premier League. It already happens now during the Premier League games but is not directly measured on the players."Copyright 2017 The Arsenal Football Club plc.

Two producers hope to establish their new operations by selling their commitment to doing the environmentally right thing. What makes them unique is that their successful business plans centered on developing greenfield locations using the promise that concrete producers can be good environmental neighbors.
Waukegan, Ill.-based United Concrete, now in its third year of operation, came about after some hard research. With a rough start due to political opposition, Dan Bobrowski and Christian Vene found they "had to design a plant layout that exceeded the state and county's standards for environmental concerns." They hired an urban land planner and conversed with the city engineer to learn of the city's two major concerns-dust and noise control. Material storage was also a major issue.
Today the complex serves as a beacon of hope for all new producers who are willing to stand up not only to the challenges of competition but also to the environmental challenges of being good neighbors.
Mark Breckenridge of B & B Materials found his challenge in Little Rock, Ark. The site Breckenridge deemed perfect for his third plant turned out to be a construction material dump site, and the owner was under investigation by the Federal Environmental Protection Agency and the Arkansas Pollution Control & Ecology Department.
With an Environmental Data Service (EDS) audit and a preliminary plan in hand, Breckenridge met state and local officials to agree on a rough site plan with a proposal to exceed city requirements. Dust control and control of process water were major issues. The plant is now in operation, and Breckenridge can pause to reflect on his accomplishment.
This article also presents a producer's fairy tale-life in a concrete producer's perfect world.

Hello everybody, first of all, I dont think anyone remembers me lol.
I dont post on onrpg's forum alot, but I have been playing mmorpg's for almous 9 years now, so my experiences on mmorpgs arent that bad.
I have played/tried/tested/hardcored generally all mmorpgs out there (yes, even the most failure ones eg. ogre island). From F2P with Cash Shop to B2P and P2P, I have experienced all.
Lol, lets get get to the point:
Do you feel like theres simply no good F2P games anymore? You cant play P2P games because you dont want to pay for games? But in your deep heart, you keep browsing for mmorpg sites, downloading million of games, uninstalling them in the same day, feeling frustrated for no game? or just interested in starting Seal Online?
I have experienced that feeling many times as well, I was about to give up, but I decided to give Seal Online an another try, and it turned out very addictive to me. So, next I will give you a brief information about the game.
Note: If you just want to know about Seal Online, start from here, ignore everything I said above.
Seal Online consist of 6 classes:
Knights: Have two builds, ST (Single-target) build and AoE (Area of Effect) build. Generally Knights naturally have perfect defence plus the defence from armors. Damage is not a problem for a Knight either. Basically, Knight are made for AoE. But as Knight have few ST skills too (1-hit KO skills) plus searching for right Attack Speed equipments for knight, will eventually make it a perfect Single Target character too.
PVE for Knight is very easy, Knight is a well-known money maker.
Warriors: Most played character in game. I can say that most 2nd job players are Warriors or Mages (which means that most high lvls ingame are either warrior or mage). Warriors are good for their crazy dmg and moderate defence. There are two types of Warriors: Combo Warrior and Skill Warrior. Combo Warriors use combo (eg. 10-hit combo -> A-S-D-D-S-D-S-A-A-A).
Combos give faster attack speed, critical bonuses, damage bonuses (eg. Your hits will be somewhat like this: 2k, 2k, 3k, 9k, 5k, 7k, 7k, 9k, 12k, 10k, 15k, 20k). Skill Warriors are made for spamming skills, however, skill warriors are consider more boring than combo warriors, and in fact most people start as a skill warrior till lvl 70, 80, 90 or even 100 and after that change for combo warrior till lvl 150 (where majority of people would choose Swordman, which is a skill type warrior because of its powerful skills). Skill warriors have powerful 1-hit KO skills called Double Slash and Deadly Slash which result for super fast lvling till 70 or 80.
Mages: Easily most favoured and played character along with Warriors. Reason is, mages are made for 1-hitting (at least till 100). Thus, mages are fastest lvlers till 100 (and can be fast after that too, but it requires some good equipments). Mages are easy to play, nice money maker, best in lvling, somewhat boring for me, bad in PvP plus mage's 2nd job is a big disappoinment from what I have heard from many mages. There are two types of mages: Fire Mage and Ice Mage: Fire have more damage, whereas Ice is faster. Before many people used to favour Fire mages, but more and more people are starting to like Ice Mages more.
Craftsman: Strong and meaningful character. Craftsman are crafters and item appraisers (note that when you get a item drop it will show "unappraised" status, when you get the item appraised, it will give you random stats depending on your luck. There is a npc for appraising, however only craftsman have the ability to appraise items above lvl 90). Most people thought of craftsman as just a "item crafter", but in reality Craftsman are good in PvE too, they also have a good 1-hit KO skill. Apart from that, crafting items isnt just a simple boring crafting random items, you can upgrade items with craftsmen (hard to explain now, all I can tell is its really good lol).
Priests: There are also two type of priests: Battle priest and Support Priest: Both are good. Support priests tend to have alot of difficulty to lvl in the beginning, but will lvl fast later on. Playing a support priest really pays of later. Most people tend to think that battle priests are weak, but they arent weak at all, in fact on most guildwars, priests are a must. They can still kill fast, buff themselves and heal themself well which saves alot of money.
Jester: Last but not least, Jesters. All I can say is they are like Assassins + Archers, except they throw darts and cards. There are two types of Jesters, Combo Jesters (Str Jesters) and Int Jesters. Combo Jesters lvl really and I mean really fast in the beginning, till like lvl 40 when they start to lose to other classes, even that, if you build your character well, they can continue really far. But playing a Jester in my opinion is all about amazing DSP, dealing super damage in no time. Therefore it means that int jesters are are the strongest damage dealers in the game. But lvling as a int jester is really expensive, it is almous impossible to make a int jester as your first character, as one set of darts (300) cost 45k, you will be able to buy 7 set at one (=300k+)
In a recent update (2nd wing) new 2nd jobs were included.
2nd change job is avaivable at lvl 150.
The lvling in Seal online is pretty fast, takes about one to two months to reach lvl 100. Of course, it also means alot of grinding, but in my opinion the grinding is bearable, if not comfortable. For those who say the game is dead: they are totally wrong, Im pretty sure 90% of them didnt even bother to try the game out. There is "search party" feature, which makes it easier to join parties, therefore you dont need to search for parties for hours just to be able to lvl abit faster. Im always lvling in full party, where people are willing to talk most of the time, so its not boring lvling. The thing that gives me most motivation for lvling is a drop system.
Drop rate in Seal online is pretty good, plus the drops are good.
I wrote this "guide" at 3am, so I might be missing out many things or making alot of typos, but my point is, Seal Online is not that bad as many people think. In fact its a really good game and ITS NOT DEAD. If you are more interested about Seal Online, you can ask everything here.

The year is 1943 and it is the last days of the Second World War. The Sonnenberg Estate, no longer owned by the Thompson family, is in the hands of the government who now use the 40-room Mansion to provide quarters to the medical staff of the VA Hospital. To escape their arduous work for just an evening, the medical staff plan to hold a Halloween Masquerade Ball but a thief lurks in their midst...
The Masquerade, written by Finger Lakes Community College English instructor Todd Natti, is classic "whodunit" mystery that takes place during a less well-known period of Sonnenberg's history, its years as part of the Canandaigua VA Hospital. Guests will have a chance to take part in this live-theater event by helping to uncover the clues that will solve the mystery and bring the guilty party —or parties—to justice!
The Friday and Saturday night Mansion Mysteries performances start at 7 p.m. and will be held on October 18, 19, 25, and 26. The main gates open at 6:30 p.m. and guests will be taken via tram service to the Mansion where the performance will take place. Light refreshments along with a cash wine bar will be provided. Non-alcoholic beverages will also be available. Guests are welcome to further participate in the fun, if they so desire, by attending in costume.
Tickets for the shows are $24 for Adults and $20 for Sonnenberg Members or Youths (ages 12 – 18). Advance reservations are strongly recommended as seating is limited and the shows often sell out by performance night. Reservations should be made by phone at (585) 394-4922 or online at www.sonnenberg.org.

On the first day of spring practice, pass defenders had a solid day.
The secondary's best returning player is Nevin Lawson, who helped set the tone with several pass break-ups. Devonta Glover-Wright notched an interception, as did freshman linebacker Nick Vigil, who dove for his pick.
It's a solid start in a secondary that has a few question marks, namely, who might start opposite Lawson, already one of the team's top leaders and a returning all-WAC honoree. Glover-Wright is attempting to establish himself as the next man up after watching Will Davis become an NFL prospect in one season.
Returnee Maurice Alexander is trying to make a switch to safety, but is a good athlete at the position. He didn't play football last year, but Utah State hopes he regains the form that made him so effective in 2011. Brian Suite brings experience to the other safety spot, and gets in on a lot of tackles.
Vigil hopes to make an impact as a freshman after redshirting last year. Coaches think he could play inside or outside linebacker, and has ample athleticism to play either.
The playmaking is promising for the first spring practice, and it shows the wisdom of retaining defensive backs coach Kendrick Shaver and linebackers coach Kevin Clune. Utah State's pass efficiency defense was No. 10 in the nation last year, and the Aggies are shooting for similar effectiveness for their first season in the Mountain West.
It's interesting the group showed some promise early: Utah State signed several defensive backs this spring to shore up the depth. As the Aggies get into padded practice, it will be one of the intriguing groups to watch.
More on spring practice later today.

text: Senate Action Alert The Senate Ways and Means budget proposal was released days after news emerged that the state budget deficit is now approximately $5 billion -- $1.5 billion larger than the estimated gap faced by both the state House of Representatives and the governor when they released their draft proposals. Debate on this budget begins on Monday, May 18. It is urgent that state senators hear from a large number of MTA members in opposition to this proposal, which will force many state employees to pay double for their health insurance premiums. That is unfairly burdensome and unacceptable. We must do all that we can to prevent the 70/30 premium split proposal from moving forward. Earlier this spring, the House of Representatives voted to raise the amount that current state employees pay to 20 percent for their health insurance premiums; new employees, those hired after July 1, would pay 25 percent. The splits outlined in the House budget are not optimal, but they are significantly better than the initial House proposal, which called for all state employees to pay 30 percent of their health insurance premiums. Senator Michael Morrissey (D-Quincy) is heading up the fight to stave off any additional increases in health insurance premium costs for state employees beyond the plan approved by the House of Representatives. Please call, write or e-mail your state senator RIGHT AWAY on this important issue. Tell your senator that it is unfair and unacceptable to burden state employees with significantly higher health insurance premium costs during these difficult economic times.

Lisa Gray, AIA, and Alan Organschi, partners in Gray Organschi Architecture, began their breakout session by noting that its title was something of a misnomer. Their firm takes an active role in creating the interiors of its projects—often to the extent of designing and fabricating furniture—but Gray and Organschi view their work as part of an indivisible whole that includes not only interiors and architecture, but also site, community, and the natural environment. "We look at a project as a total package," Gray said. The partners, recipients of residential architect's 2011 Rising Star award, expanded on that theme with examples from their firm's portfolio.
The Jesuit Community Center, which incorporates housing, communal, and administrative spaces, developed through an extensive collaboration between the architects and their clients, an order of Jesuit brothers. A central goal of the process, Gray says, was "weaving the exterior of the building into the interior functions." To preserve a sense of continuity, the partners combined the order's large collection of existing furnishings with pieces designed specifically for the project. The latter include the chapel's altar, lectern, and screen, which were fabricated from a 4-foot-diameter dead beech tree found on the site.
The firm's Firehouse 12 Music Studio, located in downtown New Haven, Conn., combines a professional recording studio at street level with a second-floor apartment and a basement nightclub. The recording studio's undulating plywood ceiling can be adjusted to "tune" the room's acoustics, Gray noted. The firm also designed and produced much of the furniture for the apartment. In response to a restrictive sign ordinance, Gray and Organschi made the lobby—visible from the street through the former garage door openings—a calling card for the building's commercial functions. "The interior of that space has become part of the exterior of the street," Organschi said.
While Gray and Organschi view interiors as integral to their work, they never presume they will have control over that aspect of a project. "That's really a relationship that builds out of the architectural relationship," Gray explained, "as the owners gain confidence. We actually have a separate contract for that, and we never go into a project expecting to do the interior design." That they often do the interior design has strengthened not only the projects, but also the firm, Organschi added. During the worst of the market's slump, he said, "construction and interior design carried us. We were able to use these other skills to keep the cash flow going."

I pay homage to venerable Mañjugośa.
I prostrate a hundred times at the feet of Vajrakīrtī, Mañjuśrī, the speaker of two languages,
The glorious guru, lord of the water-bearing clouds, whose laughter of a thousand thunderclaps of fame and renown spreads in a hundred directions,
Who with the thunderbolt of irresistible power destroys into dust the rock mountain of the dark side,
And with an excellent rainfall of limitless compassion ripens the harvest that is hoped for by the faithful.
His great qualities are as vast as the sky.
I cannot fathom the extent of space,
but this simple version that I am writing
will be comprised of meaningful words.
I will create this eulogy
to the Lord of siddhas, Ra Lotsawa,
who was superior in four wondrous ways
over all lotsawas who preceded him.
This will cause the haughty to lower their heads,
the hairs of faith to rise on the faithful,
the envious to be stung with pain,
and the righteous to place their palms together in respect.
I will write "All Pervading Melodious Drumbeats',
which will be an honest account,
free of foolishly spoken embarrassing words,
that claim things that never happened to be true.
I shall write, without embellishment, just a taste of the life of our glorious sublime guru, the great, venerable Ralo, lord of scholars and siddhas, the banner of whose fame flaps in all ten directions.

a place for zinesters - writers and readers

The owl will eat your soul!
I guess I get some of their general critiques and I can read the forums on Etsy and pick up most of that stuff. But for the most part I feel that anything they tell me, especially about zines is going to be irrelevant to me because they are probably not my customers.
The context of the work is up to the artist in regard to how they publish, and distribute. The context is part of the work.
In a crit it helps to have some backround on context, it's meaning, other artist who have used something similar before. I guess what I'm saying is , once you understand it, then evaluate it by comparing it to criteria of the genre. If you don't think your qualified to do a crit, do a review. Describe, Interpret, Analyze, discuss.

When we left our heroes last week, there was no "to be continued" to be found, and some of you speculated that that was a commentary on ambiguous Hollywood movies like Cloverfield which had been parodied earlier in the episode. That seemed like a pretty smart bet. (I was just confused, rewinding the TiVo and trying to figure out if I'd missed something.) Well, it turns out last week was simply part one, and if tonight's not-that-electrifying conclusion proved anything about these two episodes, it's that they would've been much better if they'd been combined into one.
Not that tonight was terrible, but damn did they stretch out a joke way too long–and with no real B-story to keep things moving, either. Randy and his ever-present camera was pretty funny–but he was basically telling the same joke we heard half a dozen times last week: Randy won't put down the camera, even in the worst situations. (The only place it really paid off tonight is when we left Randy-vision and saw him doing crazy close-ups on people for no reason other than the Cloverfield effect.)
Anyway, in South Park (and indeed the rest of the world), the guinea pigs are attacking. And not only guinea pigs, but guinea bees, guinea rats, even a guinea T-Rex–which are all just adorable guinea pigs dressed up in felt costumes, a joke that was funny a couple of times, but not really 50 times. ("So furry! And they're attacking every city!")
The boys, in the meantime, have been shuttled off to Peru, where their army escorts are eaten, presumably by guinea bees. They wander the jungle with Craig in tow, and he constantly complains in his flatly sarcastic voice. I actually warmed up to Craig a little bit this week–he seemed to get a little bit more personality, even if that personality was just to try and not have any adventures. When the kids come upon an ancient Incan temple (so lucky!) they find a drawn prophecy in which Craig defeats the giant guinea pigs–and that shows that guinea pigs are driven away by Peruvian flute bands. (If you didn't see that one coming halfway through last week's episode, you've probably never seen South Park--or any show?–before.)
Homeland Security monster, it turns out, is actually a giant pirate guinea pig (yawn), and Craig, while trying not to bother him, ends up defeating him. Craig's montage at the end was a little bit funny, but it wasn't a strong enough payoff (nor was the "twist" ending) to justify these two weeks of SP. That was too damn long to tell a story with so little substance and so few real laughs. Kinda like Cloverfield. Maybe that was the point.
Grade: C-
Stray observations:
-- The Peruvian flute bands played Gary Numan's "Cars" at the end; that was a bit funny.
-- Butters showed up to say hello in the midst of all the chaos, which was nice. Hi, Butters.
-- The guinea pig eating a South Parker was pretty funny. But that's all I'm giving you, "Pandemic Part 2." No more love.

Your child's health care provider will look for signs of developmental delays at regular checkups. If your child shows any symptoms of autism spectrum disorder, you'll likely be referred to a specialist who treats children with ASD, such as a child psychologist, pediatric neurologist or developmental pediatrician, for a thorough clinical evaluation.
Because ASD varies widely in severity, making a diagnosis may be difficult. There isn't a specific medical test to determine the disorder. Instead, a specialist in ASD may:
Signs of ASD often appear early in development when there are obvious delays in language skills and social interactions. Early diagnosis and intervention is most helpful and can improve skill and language development.
For your child to be diagnosed with autism spectrum disorder, he or she must meet the symptom criteria in the Diagnostic and Statistical Manual of Mental Disorders (DSM-5), published by the American Psychiatric Association. This manual is used by mental health providers to diagnose mental conditions and by insurance companies to reimburse for treatment.
ASD includes problems with social interaction and communication skills and restricted, repetitive patterns of behavior, interests or activities that cause significant impairment in social, occupational or other areas of functioning.

Elephant Cake RecipeRead Reviews Be the first to add a review
4.5 4 3
My son's beloved elephant blankie was the inspiration for the theme of his fourth birthday party. His cake, shaped like a friendly pachyderm, was a huge hit! I'm no cake decorator, but I found it fun to make. No special pans are needed, and the frosting is easily applied with a pastry bag and star tip. —Kristen Proulx, Canton, New York
Recommended: 39 Healthy Snacks That Make Kids Happy
- 1 package yellow cake mix (regular size)
- 1 package devil's food cake mix (regular size)
- 1-1/2 cups shortening
- 1-1/2 cups butter, softened
- 12 cups confectioners' sugar
- 1 tablespoon vanilla extract
- 4 to 7 tablespoons milk
- Black and blue paste food coloring
- Line two 9-in. round baking pans and one 13-in. x 9-in. baking pan with waxed paper; grease the paper. Prepare both cake batters and bake according to package directions, using the 9-in. pans for the yellow cake and the 13-in. x 9-in. pan for the chocolate cake. Cool for 10 minutes; remove from pans to wire racks to cool completely. Level cake tops if necessary.
- Referring to Fig. 1 and using a serrated knife, cut out a trunk and two feet from one yellow cake. Referring to Fig. 3, cut out an ear and tail from second yellow cake. (Discard leftover cake pieces or save for another use.)
- Center chocolate cake on a 28-in. x 16-in. covered board. Referring to Fig. 2, position trunk along left bottom edge of cake and tail on right side. Place feet at bottom corners of cake. Place ear 2 in. from left side of cake.
- For frosting, in a large bowl, cream the shortening and butter until light and fluffy. Gradually add the confectioners' sugar, vanilla and enough milk to achieve desired consistency.
- Tint 1/4 cup of frosting black; set aside. Set aside 1/2 cup white frosting. Tint remaining frosting blue-gray, using small amounts of black and blue food coloring. Spread 2 cups of the blue-gray frosting over top and sides of cake.
- Trace a 1-1/2-in. x 1-1/4-in. oval for the eye. Cut a small hole in the corner of a pastry or plastic bag; insert round tip #4. Fill bag with black frosting. Outline eye and fill in pupil; pipe eyelashes and mouth. Using star tip #25 and reserved white frosting, pipe stars to fill in eye and add nostril and toes.
- With blue-gray frosting and star tip #16, pipe stars over top and sides of elephant. Yield: 24-30 servings.

"I made this cake for a 4 year old's birthday. It was precious and the kids loved it. I did adapt it a little by rounding the top corners and putting the toenails around the front of the feet, not on the side like the photo. Also since it was a little girl's birthday, I added a pink bow and pink flower. I did not pipe the top of the cake, only the sides. Instead I iced it smooth and then patted the top with a paper towel to make wrinkly elephant skin. See http://fromchapelhilltochickenville.blogspot.com/2010/01/ellie-elephant-cake.html for a photo."

After wearing sneakers literally everyday
for years, I decided, a long time ago,
that they were made for workout.
Shoes offer such a variety of styles, why restricting ourselves
to rubber soles and round toes?
Last time I bought actual sneakers (meaning not wedged,
not fancy-looking-allegedly-sporty-looking) intending
to wear them in the street in lieu of the gym was... ten years ago.
Well, this time I wanted to buy runners and finally ended up
with those that are not really designed to keep you fit,
but who knows, next pair maybe?

Indiana County Fair to recognize best local bakers
The Indiana County Fair will sponsor three baking contests this year. Judging will take place at 9 a.m. Saturday, Aug. 24. The fair continues through Aug. 31 at the J.S. Mack Community Center/Indiana fairgrounds in White Township.
This year's contests are:
Pennsylvania Preferred Chocolate Baking
This is the second year the Indiana County Fair has included the Pennsylvania Preferred Chocolate Baking Contest in its list of competitions.
A state-sponsored agricultural marketing program, the Pennsylvania Department of Agriculture's Pennsylvania Preferred identifies and promotes food and agricultural products grown, produced or processed in the state. For a list of member locations, visit www.PAPreferred.com.
Contestants are encouraged to use as many Pennsylvania-produced ingredients as possible in their favorite chocolate baking recipes.
Adults may enter a chocolate cake and youths may enter cookies, brownies or bars.
The Indiana County Fair's contest is a preliminary competition that leads to the selection of a blue-ribbon winner at the 2014 Pennsylvania State Farm Show in Harrisburg during January.
The Incredible Angel Food Cake Contest is returning to the competitive exhibits at this year's fair. Sponsored by the Pennsylvania Egg Farmers and the Pennsylvania State Association of County Fairs, the contest looks for the best cake made from scratch with Pennsylvania eggs.
The cakes are judged on flavor, inside characteristics, overall appearance, creativity and topping.
Entrants may not have won first place in an angel food cake contest at any other fair this summer.
The winner of this contest will also be eligible to enter his or her cake in the 2014 Pennsylvania Farm Show contest.
Fair officials are also looking for the best apple pie in the county.
The Blue Ribbon Apple Pie Contest is sponsored annually by the Pennsylvania Apple Marketing Board, the Pennsylvania Department of Agriculture and the Pennsylvania State Association of County Fairs, and local fair winners will be eligible to enter the 2014 Pennsylvania State Farm Show competition, where the top pie wins $500.
Bakers must use at least 60 percent apples in the filling; however, the pie does not have to be a traditional two-crust pie and can have a variety of fillings.
Judging will be based on flavor, filling, crust, overall appearance and creativity.
The contest is open to any Pennsylvania residents; however, a winner at another fair cannot enter their pie at Indiana's.
BAKERS MAY only enter one baked item in each contest and all entries must include the entire recipe, including ingredients and detailed directions.
There is no refrigeration at the fair, so entries that require refrigeration after baking must indicate so in the recipe.
Those entries will not be sold, auctioned or otherwise distributed for consumption after judging for food safety reasons.
For more information and entry requirements, obtain an Indiana County Fair Premium Book at the fair office under the grandstand at J.S. Mack Memorial Park, White Township, visit www.indianacountyfair.com or call Kathleen Stutzman at (814) 446-5352 or Terry Semsick at (724) 248-3519.

I have heard alot of positive things about the wrx and Subaru in general. I'm a Toyota guy but if Toyota trusts Subaru enough to have them put their boxer engine in the FRS then I suppose I'll trust them also! I hear Subies are really reliable and that the wrx is a blast to drive! Although I don't have a wrx yet I figured I would check out this forum and soak up all the info I can and hopefully know alot more about the wrx so when I do get one I'll be pretty knowledge about it.

Peel sweet potatoes and cut into slices about 3/4 inch thick.
Let sweet potato slices cool for a few minutes, then cut them into cubes and put in salad bowl.
Grilled Sweet Potato Salad with Green Onion, Basil, Thyme, and Feta
(Makes about 4-6 servings, recipe created by Kalyn)
2 large orange-fleshed sweet potatoes, about 2 lbs. total
(orange-fleshed sweet potatoes may be called yams in some stores)
1/4 C + 1/4 C purchased vinaigrette dressing (I used Newman's Own Olive Oil and Vinegar Dressing, use dressing with less than 3 grams of sugar per serving for South Beach Diet)
salt and fresh ground black pepper to taste
1/2 cup thinly sliced green onions
2-3 T thin chiffonade strips of basil (thinly sliced strips)
2 tsp. chopped fresh thyme
1/2 C crumbled Feta
Let grilled sweet potato slices cool for 10-15 minutes, then cut into cubes and place in salad bowl. Add sliced green onions, chiffonade basil strips, and chopped thyme and gently combine with sweet potatoes. Stir in the other 1/4 cup of vinaigrette, using as much as you need to moisten the salad (you may not need all the dressing, depending on how wet you like your salads.) Gently stir in the crumbled feta, season salad with salt and freshly ground black pepper to taste, and serve salad at room temperature.
I had a small container of leftover salad that was in the fridge for 2 days, and it still tasted great, but you may not have any leftovers!

Well, I have never done this before, so I hope this amplifies my seriousness.
AVOID www.saberforge.com! Online aliases include: SaberForge and airsoftmode.
Summary: Despite many mixed reviews, but none like my problem, I decided to place an order with www.saberforge.com for TWO (2) of his SaberSound 1.0 boards. At this time there were more than 50+ boards listed as "in stock" and they were temporarily discounted from $59.99 down to $49.99.
On Nov.29, 2009, I placed my order totaling $117.98 and immediately paid through PayPal. On Dec.03, 2009, I received a shipping notification that my order had shipped.
On Dec.15, 2009, I received a package from SaberForge. The customs slip indicated that the contents included two (2) sound boards. Inside, there was only a single board. The shipping envelope arrived in good condition, with no rips, tears, holes, and gaps created when initially sealed. Also, the package was NOT opened by customs. I immediately emailed SaberForge at the email address indicated on his website (firstname.lastname@example.com). I was very poilite, and made no accusations.
I sent another email again on Dec.16. I sent another email on Dec.22 to another email I dug up (firstname.lastname@example.com), and another on Dec.23 to both email addresses. I did not receive a single reply. I even sent copies of these emails from a second email account of mine. I also sent a PM on the TCSS website and the FX-Sabers.com website. Still nothing.
On Dec.28, 2009, I sent a final email. With no sign of reply, I am resorting to this step. If there is time left, I will investigate generating a PayPal complaint. I may be out $50, and do not want this to happen to anyone else.
I will be seeding this post on numerous websites to maximize coverage.

Student's dedication to public service leads to Wayne Law
DETROIT (July 28, 2011) – When Eric Shovein begins classes at Wayne State University Law School in August, he will continue down a road of public service he began shortly after receiving his undergraduate degree from the University of Michigan in 2009.
|Shovein teaching in Guadeloupe
Shovein is interested in human rights law, specifically "helping people who don't always know all the resources available to them," he said, and his work over the past two years reflects those concerns. He spent a year with an AmeriCorps program in Lansing, Mich., promoting the availability of vacant lots owned by the Ingham County Land Bank for use by residents as free community gardens. He helped find materials for the gardeners and worked with them throughout the year.
"The land bank used a brilliant ideology," he said. "Instead of mowing the lots, the county could use the money from mowing to better the communities with gardens. The gardens would not only raise property value, they would bring more unity to the community, more food into peoples' homes, therapy for the people who enjoy gardening, and education to other neighbors. I was able to help create 20 sustainable gardens and feed a couple hundred people. The program is now in its second year and flourishing."
After completing that program, Shovein taught English at an elementary school on the French Caribbean island of Guadeloupe. "I figured I would be opening up the children's eyes not only to the English language and American culture, but also to the ideas about the expansive world outside their small island," Shovein said. "That job was incredibly fulfilling. My students went from writing a sentence or two here and there to writing an entire letter, expressing themselves coherently in English by the end of the academic year."
After moving back to the Detroit area in April 2011, Shovein started working with another AmeriCorps program called BrightStars at Development Centers Inc. in Detroit. According to Shovein, BrightStars helps prepare children under the age of 5 academically and socially for school. Both parents and kids come to BrightStars, where they attend classes ranging from music to reading to even gardening. Shovein also is helping two friends with a Detroit urban farming project called Food Field.
According to Shovein, Wayne Law's emerging prominence in the field of public interest law was immensely appealing when choosing a law school.
"I chose Wayne Law because of its outstanding reputation in the Michigan legal community, huge emphasis on public interest work and prime location in one of the country's most storied, hopeful and relevant communities in terms of public interest," Shovein said. "Wayne Law offers externships within those interest areas, and has staff more engaged within the broad human rights category than most other law schools."
Shovein believes that his service work combined with his education will help him achieve his future career goals. "I'd like to be a lawyer who can help people learn and understand their rights so they can avoid being taken advantage of," he said. "You don't have to go to an exotic place to change the world. There's enough exoticism and diversity within our own culture that you can have the best of both worlds – familiarity and the unknown – all right here at home."
- ### -
Wayne State University is a premier urban research university offering more than 400 academic programs through 13 schools and colleges to nearly 32,000 students.
