This is getting announced on Saturday at ComicCon. Doesn't seem nearly as interesting as the SNK crossover was. Wish this was DarkStalkers instead.
Similar to the deal between SNK and Capcom that ultimately led to a handful of games...Playable Blinky or GTFOOriginally Posted by Magic Box
This is getting announced on Saturday at ComicCon. Doesn't seem nearly as interesting as the SNK crossover was. Wish this was DarkStalkers instead.
Check the NHL thread, I'm sure it'll go back to double negative
I'd be interested if it was a 2D tekken-less Namco vs Capcom. 3D gives me a case of the blah.
If it has to be 3D, give me a Sega Vs. Namco.
I dream of fighting the Hornet against F/A Racing.
Capcom rules this shit. They proved it when SNK tried to have their take with SNK vs. Capcom. That glitch-fest lasted for maybe a week before two infinites were discovered and propelled those two characters into S-tier status with everyone else around B. Namco will have the same problem since it seems SF is way more popular than Tekken.
This doesn't sound very interesting to me, but, even though it's not really "new IP", I'll take it over yet another rehash/remake/reboot.
SVC chaos was garbage precisely because SNK was dead before that game was even in development. Playmore sucks hard and can't do anything right other than recycling the shit they inherited from a real game developer.
Garou, KOF98, and Last Blade 2 are all better than the shit fest that is CVS1, and the NGPC crossover games rock.
This Namco shit is just pointless. Namco has nothing to contribute here but stale characters and shit gameplay.
Namco's got lots of great characters when you look outside their fighting games.

It is followed by 16 marvelous full page color reproductions of Warhol's reigning queens who were: Queen Elisabeth of United Kingdom, Queen Margarethe of Denmark, Queen Beatrix of The Netherlands and Queen Ntombi of Swaziland. ( 4 color plates each). The catalogue measures 9.5 by 9 inches and has 28 pages (total). The last end page expressly states that it is a limited edition of 5000, and it states the unique edition number.
Note that the header image is a reproduction from inside the catalogue, the the actual ivory wrap cover with embossed royal insignia is shown within the listing. There is wear to the cover front and back, mostly consisting of scuffing, minor scratching and age wear, and a small brown spot on the outside cover, but the inside pages are all in excellent condition. This vintage catalogue is especially rare stateside as it was published in the Netherlands.
The title page has a facsimile of Warhol's signature in purple, which even rare book dealers will sometimes mistake for a real autograph, as this was a lifetime publication; however, it is indeed a printed signature that is part of the catalogue design.

Signature: Signed in the plate, uniquely numbered from the limited edition of 5000 on the last end page.
Obsessed with celebrity, consumer culture, and mechanical (re)production, Pop artist Andy Warhol created some of the most iconic images of the 20th century. As famous for his quips as for his art—he variously mused that "art is what you can get away with" and "everyone will be famous for 15 minutes"—Warhol drew widely from popular culture and everyday subject matter, creating works like his 32 Campbell's Soup Cans (1962), Brillo pad box sculptures, and portraits of Marilyn Monroe, using the medium of silk-screen printmaking to achieve his characteristic hard edges and flat areas of color. Known for his cultivation of celebrity, Factory studio (a radical social and creative melting pot), and avant-garde films like Chelsea Girls (1966), Warhol was also a mentor to artists like Keith Haring and Jean-Michel Basquiat. His Pop sensibility is now standard practice, taken up by major contemporary artists Richard Prince, Takashi Murakami, and Jeff Koons, among countless others.
American, 1928-1987, Pittsburgh, PA, United States, based in New York, NY, United States

Though her Lolita-esque ad set tongues wagging, in a behind-the-scenes video for Dakota Fanning's Oh, Lola fragrance campaign, the spritely starlet looks every bit the bubbly teen. Handpicked by designer Marc Jacobs to front the fragrance, a spin-off of his wildly popular Lola scent, Fanning shot the ad in Los Angeles in February — a process seen in the exclusive clip above. "I've been a big fan of Dakota since the first time I saw her in a movie," Jacobs told WWD last month. "I knew she could be this contemporary Lolita, seductive yet sweet." Oh, Lola, available exclusively at Bloomingdale's stores through July, features notes of raspberry, peony and vanilla, with scents like pear and magnolia mixed in. Bottles of the fragrance start at $48; Fanning's ads will hit magazines next month.

Rating of 3.5/4
A startlingly terrifying documentary by newcomer Josh Fox, "GasLand" explores science and fear surrounding this wonderful new energy source: Natural Gas. What people don't understand about its 40% cleaner burning is that the methods of extraction are much more highly volatile than what most surmise. Josh seems to have no political or financial gain in his quest for truth, just a simple and powerful curiosity for the preservation of our Earth's natural resources and about his own home, which sits on one of the largest natural gas resevoirs in the country. Oh yeah, screw you Dick Cheney.

This documentary film is convicting and infuriating. It takes a very matter-of-fact approach to researching and exposing the dangers and corruption behind gas companies and drives its point home with impossible-to-ignore interviews and facts.

Sploich Reviews GasLand (2010)
"Fracking fluids" is my new favorite phrase. Unfortunately fracking fluids are actually highly dangerous yet allegedly vital elements in the mining of natural gases. What's more is they're perfectly legal and subject to no professional inspection. This is the main focus of the amusing, depressing, concerning documentary GasLand.
Josh Fox doesn't seem to consider himself a filmmaker, but nevertheless that is the position into which he was thrusted while trying to discover more information on a lease offer for his home that he received from a natural gas company. What he discovered was that there are hundreds of thousands if not millions of people across the country who are negatively effected by gas drilling. The most prominent and disturbing aspect he discovered was numerous homes in w...

Trial to Resume in Giants Stadium Escalator Suit
A jury is set to resume hearing testimony in a lawsuit over an escalator accident at Giants Stadium.
The trial began last week in state Superior Court in Hackensack. Eight people injured in the December 2007 accident sued Schindler, the company that maintained the escalator, and Giants Stadium, the operator the New Jersey Sports and Exposition Authority.
Schindler settled with plaintiffs on the first day of the trial.
Several people suffered serious injuries, including one man who lost part of a leg, when the escalator sped up then stopped suddenly as it carried fans at the end of a New York Giants-New England Patriots game.
Last week jurors heard plaintiffs' lawyers describe their injuries in graphic detail. They also heard from two doctors who operated on some of the victims.

Sorry, no etymologies found.

State politics fossilize; Democrats see little reason to give up the spending they like if enough Republicans won't meet them anywhere close to the middle.

Though brains don't normally fossilize, we do have a great deal of fossil evidence revealing the long evolutionary history of chordates.
Zachriel: Brains don't normally fossilize, but we know that human brains fit the nested hierarchy, that human brains are comprised of modifications of structures found in related organisms, that craniates follow a long, diversifying path of evolutionary history, and that humans are derived hominids.

Microbes can flash fossilize and presto, you can have a microfossil that registers as extraterrestrial when it was alive on Earth not that long before.
Within several months, the ash will simply blow away into the atmospheric background or fossilize to form new rock.
Because the very real challenge we have is to remove the thumb on the scale when it comes to favoring fossilized sunshine and one of the most expedient ways to do that is to even up the playing field for competitive energy products and services by giving the market good information on the price or value of the millions of years it takes to fossilize sunshine.
So now I'm going to use them before they begin to fossilize.
(The Phanerozoic is the last 530 million years of geologic history, when there's an abundant fossil record of multicellular creatures with hard parts -- bones, shells, and so on -- that can fossilize.)

Fundraising update: How the rest of the most interesting primary races are stacking up
Editor's note: This is part two of a two-part breakdown of recent fundraising efforts from legislative candidates. Part one can be viewed here.
We're rounding out our fundraising updates behind the other half of the most interesting races to watch, which can be an early predictor of support and strength of a candidate's organization.
- 23rd House District (open seat, Democratic and Republican primaries)
Danny Basil vs. Joe Trigg in the Democratic primary.
Steve Riley vs. Freddie Joe Wilkerson in the Republican primary.
In the open seat race to replace retiring House Majority Whip Johnny Bell, D-Glasgow, attorney Danny Basil has raised $10,760 for the race. He has spent a good chunk of that, according to his 32-day, pre-primary report filed with the Kentucky Registry of Election Finance, leaving him with a balance of $1,853.
Fifty-seven-year-old Glasgow City Councilman Joe Trigg, who Bell is backing in the primary, gathered less than $2,000 for the contest, most of which came from his own bank account. Trigg has $108 left in his campaign coffers for the final three weeks of campaigning.
On the Republican side, Steve Riley, a retired principal of Barren County High School, has raised $21,815 since the beginning of the race, according to his finance report filed with KREF. Riley has $14,644 left in the account in his bid for the nomination against Freddie Joe Wilkerson, who retired from the Kentucky Army National Guard.
Wilkerson donated $3,035 to his campaign and has already spent the full amount, leaving his bank account empty ahead of the May 17 primary.
- 31st Senate District (Democratic primary)
Senate Minority Floor Leader Ray Jones vs. Glenn Martin Hammond
Incumbent Sen. Ray Jones, D-Pikeville, is locked in a messy re-election, his first since assuming the top role for Senate Democrats as minority floor leader.
Jones, who has served in the General Assembly since 2001, carried over more than $44,000 from previous campaigns into his re-election.
The Democratic leader kept bundling, hitting $299,568 raised, according to his 32-day finance report. Jones donated $105,000 to his campaign via two donations in January.
The Pikeville Democrat and attorney also spent big, leaving his campaign with $225,165 left in his campaign coffers after spending $117,490.
Jones faces first-time candidate Glenn Martin Hammond, who also turned in a six-figure finance report. Hammond has netted $151,451 since the beginning of the race.
Most of that came from his own wallet. Hammond, who is also an attorney, made two donations in April totaling $85,000 on top of the more than $55,000 he gave to his campaign in December.
The winner of the primary will be the next state senator for the district, which encompasses Elliott, Lawrence, Martin, Morgan and Pike counties.
- 69th House District (Republican primary)
Rep. Adam Koenig vs. Danny Seifried
Rep. Adam Koenig, R-Erlanger, is fending off his right flank from first-time GOP candidate Danny Seifried, of Florence. The two are finding monetary support in the northern Kentucky region.
Koenig has raised $25,692 since gearing up for the race last year, according to a report filed with KREF. He hasn't spent much so far in the election and will bring $22,263 to the final weeks of the race — enough to make several lines of attack against his challenger stick.
Seifried also has enough capital to inflict damage. He gathered $15,194 since entering the primary, which will decide the next state representative for the region. Seifried has spent little so far, leaving him with $14,545 in cash-on-hand.
- 33rd Senate District (Democratic primary)
Senate Minority Caucus Chair Gerald Neal vs. Charles Booker vs. Joan "Toni" Stringer
Twenty-five-year incumbent Sen. Gerald Neal is facing two Democratic primary opponents, including his former aide and a former district court judge, in the western Louisville District.
Neal, chairman of the Senate Democratic caucus, carried over more than $12,000 in cash from previous elections, but kept bundling for the race. He added $44,145 in donations, $10,000 of that from the Kentucky House Democratic Caucus Campaign Committee, according to his report filed with the registry.
Neal has spent along the way, but enters the final three weeks of the primary with $33,300 in the bank.
Charles Booker, who served as Neal's legislative aide and campaign advisor in recent elections, raised $15,105 for the race, according to paperwork filed with KREF. Booker has spent a majority of what he has raised, leaving him with $2,086 in cash-on-hand.
Meanwhile, former district court judge Toni Stringer is keeping pace gathering $14,510 in the campaign. Stringer has also been forced to spend her contributions, leaving her with $3,469.
- 91st House District (Republican primary)
Randall S. Christopher vs. Toby Herald
Former state Rep. Toby Herald, of Beattyville, who lost the seat by 14 votes to current Rep. Cluster Howard, D-Jackson, has shown no fundraising activity in his hopes for a return to Frankfort.
Herald has $4,667 in his campaign coffers, all of which carried over from his 2014 re-election bid. So far, Herald has not spent any of the cash, according to his 32-day, pre-primary report.
Herald's path to the general-election ballot may not be an easy one as he faces Randall Christopher, of Irvine, who has been raising money for the primary.
Christopher, the former interim superintendent of Estill County Schools and co-owner of Anglers Outpost & Marine, has raised $15,701 in the primary.
He has $13,049 left in cash-on-hand for the May 17 election.

Pakistan training camp discussed in secret recording
A man convicted of terrorism offences suggested others could attend a firearms training camp in Kashmir, his sentencing hearing is told.
Usman Khan, 20, from Stoke-on-Trent, was secretly recorded talking about recruiting British radicals to attend the camp.
He said the camp would look like a legitimate "madrassa", an Islamic religious school, from the outside.
Khan and eight other men have pleaded guilty to a range of terror offences.
Prosecutor Andrew Edis QC, opening the case for the Crown on day two of the sentencing hearing, said: "He has recently returned from Pakistan, and the inference is he's been there, and is going back there within a few weeks."
About the camp, he added: "It is... quite clear that the hope is that there will be a significant number of UK citizens who will attend there."
Discussing terrorist fundraising, Khan was recorded saying Muslims in Britain could earn in a day what people in Kashmir, a disputed region between Pakistan and India, were paid in a month.
'Victory, death or prison'
He went on: "On jobseeker's allowance we can earn that, never mind working for that."
Khan, speaking of support for jihad, said he could only see three results: "There's victory, what we hope for, there's shahada (death as a martyr), or there's prison."
Mohammed Chowdhury, 21, Shah Rahman, 28, both from London, Gurukanth Desai, 30, and Abdul Miah, 25, both from Cardiff, have pleaded guilty to engaging in conduct in preparation for acts of terrorism by planning to plant a bomb in the toilets of the London Stock Exchange.
They were arrested in December 2010 and are being sentenced at Woolwich Crown Court.
Usman Khan, Omar Latif, 28, from Cardiff, Mohammed Shahjahan 27, Nazam Hussain, 26, and Mohibur Rahman, 27, all from Stoke-on-Trent, have pleaded guilty to lesser offences.
In court Chowdhury was described as the "lynchpin" of the group.
He discussed carrying out a "Mumbai-style" attack on Parliament or the London Eye, but the prosecution said: "There is no evidence at all that this group had the physical capability to carry out a Mumbai-style attack."
Internet browsing history showed that he used Google Street View to examine the area around the London Stock Exchange at street level, the hearing at Woolwich Crown court was told.
Football code
Miah was bugged as he spoke to Chowdhury on December 4 2010, using football as a code for their plans and referring to the Stoke members of the group as "guests".
He said: "We will be able to play football, proper match, tournament, without guests... We don't need any outsiders in the tournament."
Mr Edis told the court: "There was a distinction between the nine members of the group. The four who were party to the discussion about an attack in the UK appeared to have been working on the basis they didn't need outsiders in that project."
Miah also spoke of using VAT fraud to get "proper money" for their plans and compared the group's projects to the September 11 2001 attacks in the US.
"That (9/11) was a very big thing. Ours is nothing compared to theirs... They took many years starting to get ready, so this is a small thing," he said.
The hearing continues.

Only a few weeks ago, I had the pleasure of discovering the beautiful city of Naples, Italy. Alive and vibrant, Naples is the city of the living god Diego 'El Pibe de Oro' Maradona, the dormant volcano Vesuvius and of course the incredible know-how of Neapolitan tailors.
I was lucky enough to discovered one of Naples's best-kept secrets, the Atelier of Eduardo de Simone.
Since 1896, De Simone's family is committed to create menswear garments of quality. Founded by Vicenzo de Simone, nowadays the workshop is led by Eduardo de Simone, the fourth generation of the family; a true passionate about bespoke tailoring.
Located on Via Cupa Principe (near Naples airport); the Neapolitan tailor with his highly skilled master-tailors offers an exceptional bespoke service at a very attractive price.
One of the strengths of the Eduardo De Simone is its open mind about construction; the tailoring house does not confine itself to the famous Neapolitan tailoring style (spalla camicia and con rollino shoulder or also the barchetta pocket).
The workshop Eduardo de Simone can create a garment more structured, or more contemporary, also may utilize British fabrics, or created Milanese buttonholes worthy of the greatest French tailoring houses.
I had the great pleasure to discover this workshop. Those are my pictures of this delightful visit.

Mumbai: 'G.I. Joe: Retaliation' star Adrian Pallicki has apparently been convinced to join her 'Dr Cabbie' co-star Vinay Virmani in India for its release in the country.
The Indo-Canadian production, to be premiered in September at the Toronto International Film Festival, is expected to have a grand Indian release a little later in the year when Salman Khan, who is the film`s official presenter, would be free of his own big release 'Kick'.
While the big plans for the Indian release are being kept under wraps the buzz from sources close to the project suggests that Salman is keenly interested in bringing the cast of 'Dr. Cabbie' to India for the release.
"While Salman has convinced Izabelle Kaif (Katrina`s sister) who has a pivotal role in `Dr Cabbie`, to be in India for the film`s Indian release, Adrianne was not so keen until her co-star Vinay convinced her that a trip to India would be just the stress-buster she needed," said a source.
The modalities of the Indian release are now being worked out.
"We do want to come with `Dr Cabbie` to India. The film is produced outside but its heart is completely Indian. It`s the story of a qualified Indian doctor who ends up as a taxi driver in Canada," said Vinay who was last seen as one of the leads in Bejoy Nambiar`s "David".
He hopes to consolidate his career in Bollywood and abroad with 'Dr. Cabbie'.

- Sunnyday278
- 5 years ago
- Wedding: September 2013 - B&B
I know, in the past growing up, there were some years my family had a live tree. But for the life of me I cannot remember ever going Christmas tree cutting! Ithink my parents got them from Lowe's or Home Depot or something. And for a looong time they have been fake because of the mess and our nosy curious little dogs.
So when DH's mom said that I should go with them to cut the tree this year, I thought we would drive to a farm that had the trees, march out, cut one, march back, and pay at a little kiosk or something!
Now I am so pissed my phone was dead and I didnt have a camera because JB's tree farm was so much more!!!! They had miniature donkeys! And goats that they called them miniature goats, which I guess is different from pygmy because these guys were bigger bodied, but they had short stubby legs and they were so ROUND and cute!!!
they were taking out groups of people, in these large flat bed trailers, either drawn by tractor or a team of draft horses!!! What?!? PLUS there was a barbecue stand set up so you could get something hot while you waited in line, I had a woodfire mini personal pizza with cheese, pepperoni, and BACON. My word.
And then the sheer size of this tree farm! And I totally get the excitement of suddenly seeing your tree and going "thats the one!" They also had a Christmas shop, where they sold beautiful but overpriced wreaths, tree stands, etc.
Either we didnt have a place as cool as this back home, or my parents held out on me!!! Bees who cut: do you/did you go to such a cool place? Or when you get your trees is it rather "cut and dry"? (Pun 100% intended and I apologize :P)

Transylvania Resident Receives Award For Extraordinary Nursing
TRANSYLVANIA COUNTY, N.C. Transylvania County resident Mary Cathey, BSN, RN, a surgical nurse at Mission Hospital in Asheville, was presented with the DAISY Award for Extraordinary Nursing for the month of April.
Every month Mission Hospital selects two nurses to be honored with this prestigious award. Three co-workers wrote nomination letters for Cathey, each citing her compassion, professionalism and her respect for patients.
"She (Cathey) is an incredible nurse educator and an amazing teammate," said Alan Bradshaw, M.D. "She can make the most difficult cases go smoothly on a regular basis. In short, I could not do my job without her. She is indispensable. For Mary, the patient always comes first."
The DAISY Award for Extraordinary Nurses was founded by The DAISY Foundation (for the elimination of Diseases Attacking the Immune System) in memory of J. Patrick Barnes by his parents after they experienced firsthand the skills and compassionate caring of their son's nurses.
Mission Hospital's DAISY Award Committee selects two nurses each month from among the many nominees to receive this special honor. The honoree is presented with a certificate commending her or him for being an "Extraordinary Nurse."
The certificate reads: "In deep appreciation of all you do, who you are, and the incredibly meaningful difference you make in the lives of so many people."
The honoree also receives a beautiful handmade sculpture called "A Healer's Touch," hand-carved by artists of the Shona Tribe in Africa.
Transylvania Regional Hospital recently launched the DAISY award program at the local hospital with the first winner to be announced in May. There will be two DAISY awards winners selected each year from Transylvania Region-al Hospital. To nominate a special nurse who has given extraordinary care, go to missionhospitals.org/daisy.

Beginners Guide
Rust's Beginners Guide
When you spawn in Rust, you will begin at a random place on the map. Unfortunately, there are not many tools to help you navigate (ex. Compasses or Maps), and once you die, you will respawn in another random place. The exception to this is if you have crafted and placed a sleeping bag. Then you can respawn at your sleeping bag by selecting "At a Camp" at the death screen. This makes getting used to the environment even more difficult, as the land is uniform and unremarkable. At this state, it is difficult to get a bearing on where you are.
Getting Started
Let's get started! First, you will need to know the basic Rust controls. You can press TAB to access your inventory. Displayed in your inventory will be your Armor, Crafting, and other options. "E" opens up bags of gear, and left mouse button will use whatever is in your hand, whether it's a weapon or an item.
You can find the complete list of in game commands here: Controls and Commands.
Starting Gear
After you've learned how to use the controls you'll notice that you don't have many items in your inventory. All you have is a rock which can be used to gather wood, gather ores from rocks or hunt down animals. You'll want to get rid of the rock as soon as possible because it takes ages to gather resources. Next to the rock you'll find two bandages which heal up wounds when you are bleeding. The bandage does not regenerate health. And next to the bandage you'll find a torch which is helpful during nighttime. You can also press "t" to enable chat and then type "/starter" to get a starter kit(if the server you are on has this option available), it contains a campfire, a hatchet, more torches and a sleeping bag.
Getting Wood
Wood plays an important role in Rust. It is used primarily for building houses, which is covered later in this guide. To gather wood, you will need to locate either a tree or a wood pile. Once you have located a tree or a wood pile, you can use a rock, hatchet, Stone Hatchet or Pick Axe to gather wood from it. Pick Axes gather resources considerably faster than any other tool. Trees yield a much lower amount of wood per hit than wood piles. With that in mind, seek out wood piles to maximize your haul. Once a wood pile is exhausted of all its resources, it will disappear.
Gathering Metal Ore and Sulfur
Metal ore and sulfur are found in rocks, and can be used for crafting weapons and other items. Once you have located a rock, you can use a rock, hatchet, stone hatchet or Pick Axe to gather materials from it. Pick Axes gather more resources but are slower than any other tool. Once a rock is exhausted of all its resources, it will disappear.
You'll notice that you're not only picking up metal ore and sulfur ore from a rock, but also stones. Those are required to craft a furnace later on so you can smelt your gathered stuff.
Hunting is important because it provides raw chicken breast, cloth, animal fat and blood. Raw chicken breast keeps you from starving; cloth is later required to craft cloth armor or to create a sleeping bag so that you can respawn in the same area when you die. Animal fat is needed to make a furnace for smelting.
It is easiest to kill animals with weapons, but since most beginners don't have these, it is useful to know that you can also use a rock, hatchet, stone hatchet or pick axe to kill them. Once they die, hit the animals with your rock, hatchet, stone hatchet or pick axe to harvest their resources.
Getting started can be difficult, for help follow https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=E8TUXIYyU-8
Don't forget that you need to eat to survive. Raw meat can be obtained from the wildlife on the map. Once you have killed the animal, continue to hit it with a Pick Axe or any other tool and you will harvest raw meat. You can also get other food items from zombies or from looting towns. Raw food items should be cooked on a campfire before they are consumed to get the most out of them. And if you eat raw meat, you get poisoned, which make you vomit and lose health.
Now that you have gathered the resources for the furnace, you need to create one so we can smelt. Press TAB and click the crafting button at the top of your screen. After pressing the crafting button, you will want to click on the furnace and craft one. Now drag the newly crafted furnace into your hot bar at the bottom, and place it on the ground. After placing the furnace, you will need to drag your metal ores and sulfur ores into the inventory of the furnace, along with some wood for the smelting process to occur. The ores will be smelted from time to time so check your furnace regularly.
Making Weapons
After smelting the metal ores on the furnace, you will get Metal Fragments. Let's make use of these! Go into the crafting tab, select the revolver, and craft one. Of course, now you will need some 9mm bullets to go with the gun. To be able to make ammo, you will need gunpowder and Metal Fragments. Gunpowder can be crafted with Charcoal and Sulfur, or found inside crates in towns, or Bears or wolves.
Edit: players start with the Revolver crafting recipe, Not the 9mm Pistol recipe.
Building A House
To make a house, you are going to need wood, and a lot of it. Once you have built up a nice stockpile of wood, open your inventory and go to the crafting tab. The first thing you'll need is a foundation. Check the requirements for a foundation, and craft one. There are several other house items which you can also craft, such as pillars and doors. Once you have crafted a foundation, drag it onto your main inventory bar and select it. You should now have a red or green box which moves with your view. Once the box turns green, that means you can place it there. Make sure you place the foundation where you want it, as you can not move it after. Now use pillars to give your walls a place to attach to. Once you have your pillars placed, you can start putting up walls. You can also experiment with making two or more story houses.
Health (HP)
Your health will be displayed in the bottom right hand of your screen. If you get shot, above your health there will be a bar that says bleeding. If you are bleeding, you need to use a Bandage or else you will bleed to death. Medkits can be used if you are low on health or bleeding. Small Medkits will restore 40HP when used, andLarge Medkits restore 100HP. To use a Medkit or bandage, press the TAB key to open up your inventory. Drag the item to your main inventory bar, and then press that number to select it. Bandages and Small Medkits are single use items and will disappear after being used.

Simple DIY Nourishing Face Mask with Ripe Papaya, Yogurt and Honey
As a healthcare professional, I try to avoid using products with chemicals whose effects on humans are unknown and may potentially cause damage to our skin rather than protect it. This past year, I have been experimenting with different DIY skin care recipes using ingredients in my kitchen. Not only are the results satisfactory but the savings I make by not going to expensive spas and salons as much as I used to are significant. Taking care of our health and physical appearance is a must and shouldn't cost a fortune. If budget is an issue, there are practical ways to achieve a beautiful and healthy complexion that you can do yourself in the comforts of your home.
I always keep Manuka honey in my pantry which I regularly put in my green tea beverage and even spoon out as a delicious dessert. While all honeys offer antibacterial properties, as discussed in a previous blog, New Zealand's Manuka honey with a UMF (Unique Manuka Factor) rating of at least 10 is found to have greater healing powers because of its Methyglyoxal and Hydrogen Peroxide components. Manuka honey may also offer antioxidant protection from free radical damage. These antibacterial and antioxidant components make Manuka honey a powerful aid in treating simple or complex and acute or chronic wounds and burns and in skin care in general. When applied topically, Manuka honey draws fluid and other nutrients into the skin which aid in faster wound healing and the growth of new tissue.
Another item that I normally have in my refrigerator is plain yogurt. Yogurt is not only tasty but it also has great health benefits. Yogurts with "live and active cultures" are an excellent source of probiotics, the good bacteria that can aid gastrointestinal health when eaten in adequate amounts. They are also a good source of other important nutrients that include Calcium, Protein, Potassium, Magnesium and the B-Vitamins. Yogurt may help prevent osteoporosis, decrease risk for yeast infections, and even lower cholesterol. Their health benefits are abundant which make them a perfect anytime snack. Because yogurt comes from milk, it contains lactic acid, a form of alpha hydroxy acid (AHA) that can help improve skin's texture and hydration level, slough away dead skin cells, moisturize dry skin and prevent formation of lines and wrinkles.
As a child, I had always enjoyed ripe Papaya fruit as a snack. This deliciously sweet, low-calorie tropical fruit is packed with powerful nutritional and medicinal properties. It is one of the fruits with the highest Vitamin C content, an antioxidant with free radical scavenging, protective, immune-boosting and anti-inflammatory properties. It is an excellent source of other nutrients that include Vitamin A, another powerful antioxidant that contributes to healthy skin and eye sight; B-Vitamins that play a major role in our body's metabolism; and Potassium and Calcium, minerals that help maintain a healthy blood pressure and are essential for proper smooth skeletal and cardiac muscle functioning. It is also rich in dietary fiber making it beneficial for digestive health. Papaya fruit's papain enzyme content has been used as an ingredient in enzymatic debriding preparations for the treatment of chronic wounds, sores or ulcers with overlying dead tissue. All these components make ripe Papaya fruit a wonderful skin care ingredient that exfoliates and removes dead skin cells to reveal a smoother, healthy-looking and radiant complexion free from blemishes and unwanted discolorations.
Having discussed the numerous benefits of these three food items, they make wonderful natural skin care ingredients. Here's a simple Do-It-Yourself recipe for a face mask that you can apply to your skin about once a month. Ripe papaya skin has somewhat of an orange color and has soft spots when pressed. You may buy green papaya, put it in a brown paper bag and wait until it ripens which is a fairly quick process, about 3-4 days. Once it fully ripens, peel the skin, cut it up and remove the seeds. Set aside a small piece and store the rest (if you're not cooking or eating it) in the refrigerator for about a week or in the freezer for about a month. Make it a habit to use sunscreen and avoid over exposure to the sun especially after using any product that contains Alpha Hydroxy Acids to prevent sun sensitivity and ultraviolet damage.
1. Mash the papaya fruit with a fork and place a spoonful in a small bowl.
2. Mix mashed papaya with 4 spoonfuls of plain yogurt.
3. Add half a teaspoon of (Manuka) honey to the mixture and blend well.
4. Wash your face with lukewarm water and a sulfate-free cleanser. Pat dry.
5. Apply the mixture evenly on your face. If you have easily irritated skin, leave it on for about 15 minutes. Otherwise, leave it on for 20-25 minutes. Rinse well with lukewarm water.
6. Apply moisturizer or cream.

Wow. I am really not delivering on my goal to publish at least twice a month… At least I have an excuse this time, I guess? Sorta?
Most of the month of April involved dealing with some (what I originally though were) minor health concerns: fatigue, lethargy, semi-unusual aches and pains, etc. They were causing me enough problems to affect my daily life, so I figured I should probably get checked out just in case. What I expected to be a simple, by the books doctor appointment ended with me having to go for testing for several conditions, including but not limited to rheumatoid arthritis and lupus. My doctor even booked my follow up appointment for me before I even left the exam room. This in combination with his urgency that I go get the blood work done as soon as possible, had me freaked right out. I went for my blood work the following morning and settled in to wait the LONG week before my follow up appointment. During that week, after researching (THANKS, ANXIETY), I almost had myself convinced I had lupus! It was good news, however, when I walked into my doctor appointment the following week. As it turns out, I am quite anemic. Who knew an iron deficiency could actually have serious effects on your life! Since then, I have been on some heavy duty iron supplements, and I am finally starting to notice improvements. I don't think I have ever been so relieved as I was on that day. Knowing that I am dealing with something that can be fixed with a supplement is a huge stress release.
Before the doctor scared the poopers out of me, I actually made some minor upgrades around home. A new dresser, a bookcase replaced, a new vacuum cleaner… things of that nature. It has felt really good to make these changes around my home and update it a bit. I'll have lived here for two years come July, and it was time for some little changes to be made. I also have plans to build a new headboard for my bed sometime this summer. I think it is going to be amazing. I can't wait to have things exactly how I want them!
Along with these minor upgrades, the cats received some extra goodies as well. They now finally have a cat tree to climb and play on! Tobi loves it, and I've yet to really see Huxley use it, but I am sure he will in time.
Huxley has turned out to be an absolutely wonderful addition to my little family. He and Tobi play so well together, and he has taken to me as his human as I could have only hoped he would. He is very much a part of the family, and I love to my two babies as much as if he was always here. He has started snuggling in bed with my at bedtime each night, and it makes me so happy. As I always seem to be telling him, he is the best decision I have made in the past two years. He is very comfortable here and he knows he is loved.
Tobi went to the vet this month as well, she was overdue for vaccinations and I felt she needed a proper check up as well. We tried a different one this time, a new veterinary clinic that has opened up a short two minute drive from home. They took to her right away, and were impressed with how chill she was. She was given a clean bill of health, aside from her usual issues, and she got her shots as well. The highlight, however, was her weigh in. She weighed in at 6.6 kg, which is approximately 14.5 lbs. This is the lightest she has been since she was about a year old! After several years, she has finally attained a healthy weight. This new vet had absolutely no concerns about her weight because "she is clearly a large cat." It felt so nice to have someone else understand that there was NO WAY Tobi could possibly weigh 10 lbs and still be considered healthy. We left the appointment that day with Tobi feeling sufficiently traumatized and me feeling completely satisfied with the service we received. It seemed just the news we needed to gear up for Tobi's 9th birthday this past Tuesday. I bought the kitties a Meowbox to celebrate her birthday this year. It was enjoyed by all.
I am home from work today, not feeling well at all. I am taking this opportunity to practice a bit of self care, which included some blog activity, because I do miss it when I don't write for it. It gets some feelings out there, and it helps me feel more social, being an introvert and all. HOPEFULLY I do a better job of staying on top of things in the future.
In the meantime, I will keep on playing World of Warcraft and reading up a storm. Since I finally finished the train wreck that was The Goldfinch after a year and a half, I have been reading up a storm and it feels great.

Welcome to Kauai, the Big Island of Hawaii, also known as the Garden Isle, and for good reasons. With tropical rainforests, an abundance of flora and fauna, lovely beaches and water, and unique historical towns, you will be certain to enjoy your visit to this island that may have busy port towns, yet still remains mostly undeveloped.
Your arrival to the port of Nawiliwili on Kauai brings you to the southeastern corner of the island. While on our Kauai Exclusive North and East Coast Sightseeing Excursion, we can offer you the chance to visit much of the dramatic landscape that you may well have seen in films and television shows such as Lost.
Come with us and see why the Polynesians made Hawaii their home thousands of years ago. Prior to 1959, when Hawaii became the 50th state of the United States of America, the first contact with outsiders was in 1778 when Captain James Cook and his crew landed. But, after his historical time in Hawaii, the islands were joined together under King Kamehameha the Great and were considered a kingdom. It's important to understand that Hawaiians are very proud of their history and have expressed this in a variety of ways including sculptures, historical sites, and museums.
So, what is there to do, you may ask. Well, our Kauai Excursions will show the best of this island in a variety of ways. Check out the great beaches for snorkeling and diving. Maybe come with us to enjoy sightseeing or adventures such as boating up a serene river and hiking to the lovely Fern Grotto on our Kauai Wailua River and Fern Grotto Excursion. Maybe you'd like to partake in an authentic luau as on our Kauai Wailua River, Fern Grotto and Luau Excursion, or check out the Daniel K. Inouye Lighthouse, or see the famous Grand Canyon of the Pacific, Waimea Canyon while enjoying our Kauai Waimea Canyon and Waimea River 2-Day Excursion.
No matter your tastes, we'll have the perfect Kauai Shore Excursions for you. Aloha!
Fun fact: many people feel that Aloha means simply hello, or goodbye, but it actually represents peace, love, and harmony. Saying Aloha comes from the heart for when you are truly glad to see someone, or will sincerely miss them when they leave.

Faced with the high cost of in-home care, many Americans end up providing care themselves for an aging parent or relative with a chronic condition. But by doing so, you may be putting your own finances, and even your health, at risk.
For more and more baby boomers, taking care of elderly parents is increasingly important and often necessary. For an increasingly large portion of the population, then, the true costs of caring for an aging relative are fairly crucial to understand now more than ever before.
This math of the matter was the subject of a recent article in The New York Times titled "Assessing the Costs of Caring for an Aging Relative."
Bottom line: you do what you have to for the people you love. On the other hand, elder care can have some serious and unforeseen costs, some strictly for care and some in lost income or professional mobility.
Aside from dollars, there are the "costs" in terms of the caregiver's health, too.
The original article lays out some of the facts, but the key considerations to master are the basic questions: What do you need to do? What can you do? And what can your elderly loved one do to plan ahead?
If you and your loved one are planning early instead of reacting to a crisis, then there are many steps you can take. For many, it will mean gaining a firm understanding of Medicare and Medicaid, none-too-simple topics in and of themselves. For others, there still may be the option of long-term care insurance.
Caring for a loved one is still an important option for most, those giving the care and those receiving the care. Indeed, such care is perhaps cheaper and more meaningful than nursing home care.
Whatever route you and your elderly loved one elect to take, be sure you weigh all of the rewards and risks carefully before committing to any course of care.

EPLETT email@example.com_county.toronto.globe_and_mail 2007-05-30 published
INCH, Constance E. " Connie" (née EPLETT)
In loving memory of Constance E. "Connie" INCH, 80 years, Tuesday, May 29th, 2007 at the Pioneer Manor, Sudbury. Beloved wife of William A. INCH predeceased 1992. Loving mother of Carolyn (husband Gary LUM), Sam, Jim, Andy, Cathy (husband Richard SMITH), and Tracey (husband Kent PERRAS.) Cherished grandmother of Jamie, Edward, Ryan, David, Jedd, and Kael. Dear daughter of Samuel and Nora (MILLER) EPLETT predeceased. Dear sister of Patricia McLENNAN predeceased. Special aunt to Lynda McLENNAN.
Connie grew up during the war years in New Liskeard and was introduced to the love of nature and outdoor activities by her sportsman father, Sam EPLETT, owner of Epletts Ice Cream. She had her own horse at age 12 and became a skilled horsewoman. At war's end she met the love of her life, a war-time pilot, Bill INCH, and as soon as he finished law school he married Connie and commenced practicing law with Connie's uncle, George MILLER, with the Sudbury law firm Miller, Maki.
She was an avid curler and once represented the north in national curling championship. During the time she was raising their six children, she gave many hours to the Red Cross and other charities related to Children's Aid.
Her annual getaway was to go moose hunting with the boys. She was a loyal Progressive Conservative party worker in many campaigns. In later years she took on the management of the Towne House Hotel owned by her husband and business partners. To add a challenge, she bought a farm which later became an established equestrian facility in Chelmsford, Ontario, currently owned and operated by her daughter Cathy and her husband Rick.
Throughout her life she was a popular hostess who knew the words to all the songs of the day and could whip up a meal for a dozen people at a moment's notice. Connie will be remembered by all who knew her for her vibrant personality, exuberant love of life and her incredible organizational skills. She shot from the hip and rarely missed.

For years self-help gurus have preached the same simple mantra: if you want to improve your life then you need to change how you think. Force yourself to have positive thoughts and you will become happier. Visualise your dream self and you will enjoy increased success. Think like a millionaire and you will magically grow rich. In principle, this idea sounds perfectly reasonable. However, in practice it often proves ineffective.
Take visualisation. Hundreds of self-improvement books encourage readers to close their eyes and imagine their perfect selves; to see themselves in a huge office at the top of the corporate ladder, or sipping a cocktail as they feel the warm Caribbean sand between their toes. Unfortunately, research suggests this technique does not work.
In one study led by Lien Phamat the University of California, students were asked to spend a few moments each day visualising themselves getting a high grade in an upcoming exam. Even though the daydreaming exercise only lasted a few minutes, it caused the students to study less and obtain lower marks. In another experiment led by Gabriele Oettingenfrom New York University, graduates were asked to note down how often they fantasised about getting their dream job after leaving college. The students who reported that they frequently fantasised about such success received fewer job offers and ended up with significantly smaller salaries.
Why should this be so? Maybe those who fantasise about a wonderful life are ill-prepared for setbacks, or become reluctant to put in the effort required to achieve their goal. Either way, the message is clear – imagining the perfect you is not good for your life.
However, when it comes to change, the message is not all gloom and doom. Decades of research show that there is indeed a simple but highly effective way to transform how you think and feel. The technique turns common sense on its head but is grounded in science. Strangely, the story begins with a world-renowned Victorian thinker and an imaginary bear.
Working at Harvard University in the late 19th century, William James, brother of the novelist Henry James, was attracted to the unconventional, often walking around campus sporting a silk hat and red-checked trousers, and describing his theories using amusing prose ("As long as one poor cockroach feels the pangs of unrequited love, this world is not a moral world"). This unconventional approach paid off. First published in 1890, James's two-volume magnum opus The Principles of Psychology is still required reading for students of behavioral science.
Towards the end of the 1880s, James turned his attention to the relationship between emotion and behavior. Our everyday experience tells us that your emotions cause you to behave in certain ways. Feeling happy makes you smile, and feeling sad makes you frown. Case closed, mystery solved. However, James became convinced that this commonsense view was incomplete and proposed a radical new theory.
James hypothesised that the relationship between emotion and behavior was a two-way street, and that behavior can cause emotion. According to James, smiling can make you feel happy and frowning can make you feel sad. Or, to use James's favourite way of putting it: "You do not run from a bear because you are afraid of it, but rather become afraid of the bear because you run from it."
James's theory was quickly relegated to the filing drawer marked "years ahead of its time", and there it lay for more than six decades.
Throughout that time many self-help gurus promoted ideas that were in line with people's everyday experiences about the human mind. Common sense tells us that emotions come before behavior, and so decades of self-help books told readers to focus on trying to change the way they thought rather than the way they behaved. James's theory simply didn't get a look-in.
However in the 70s psychologist James Laird from Clark University decided to put James's theory to the test. Volunteers were invited into the laboratory and asked to adopt certain facial expressions. To create an angry expression participants were asked to draw down their eyebrows and clench their teeth. For the happy expression they were asked to draw back the corners of the mouth. The results were remarkable. Exactly as predicted by James years before, the participants felt significantly happier when they forced their faces into smiles, and much angrier when they were clenching their teeth.
Subsequent research has shown that the same effect applies to almost all aspects of our everyday lives. By acting as if you are a certain type of person, you become that person – what I call the "As If" principle.
Take, for example, willpower. Motivated people tense their muscles as they get ready to spring into action. But can you boost your willpower by simply tensing your muscles? Studies led by Iris Hung from the National University of Singapore had volunteers visit a local cafeteria and asked them to try to avoid temptation and not buy sugary snacks. Some of the volunteers were asked to make their hand into a fist or contract their biceps, and thus behave as if they were more motivated. Amazingly, this simple exercise made people far more likely to buy healthy food.
The same applies to confidence. Most books on increasing confidence encourage readers to focus on instances in their life when they have done well or ask them to visualise themselves being more assertive. In contrast, the As If principle suggests that it would be much more effective to simply ask people to change their behavior.
Dana Carney, an assistant professor at Columbia Business School, led a study where she split volunteers into two groups. The people in one group were placed into power poses. Some were seated at desks, asked to put their feet up on the table, look up, and interlock their hands behind the back of their heads. In contrast, those in the other group were asked to adopt poses that weren't associated with dominance. Some of these participants were asked to place their feet on the floor, with hands in their laps and look at the ground. Just one minute of dominant posing provided a real boost in confidence.
The researchers then turned their attention to the chemicals coursing through the volunteers' veins. Those power posing had significantly higher levels of testosterone, proving that the poses had changed the chemical make-up of their bodies.
The As If principle can even make you feel younger. Harvard psychology professor Ellen Langer has conducted many high-profile experiments; one of her most striking involved using the As If principle to turn back the hands of time.
In 1979 Langer recruited a group of men in their 70s for a "week of reminiscence" at a retreat outside Boston. Before the study started, Langer tested the men's strength, posture, eyesight and memory.
She then encouraged the men to act as if they were 20 years younger. When they arrived at the retreat, for instance, there was no one there to help them off the bus and they had to carry their suitcases inside. In addition, the retreat had not been not equipped with the type of rails and other movement aids they had at home. After unpacking, everyone was assembled in the main room of the retreat. Surrounded by various objects from the 50s, including a black-and-white television and a vintage radio, Langer informed the participants that for the next few days all of their conversations about the past had to be in the present tense, and that no conversation must mention anything that happened after 1959.
Within days, Langer could see the dramatic effect of behaving As If. The participants were now walking faster and were more confident. Within a week several of the participants had decided that they could now manage without their walking sticks. Langer took various psychological and physiological measurements throughout the experiment and discovered that the group now showed improvements in dexterity, speed of movement, memory, blood pressure, eyesight and hearing. Acting as if they were young men had knocked years off their bodies and minds.
More than a century ago William James proposed a radically different approach to change. Decades of research has shown that his theory applies to almost every aspect of everyday life, and can be used to help people feel happier, avoid anxiety and worry, fall in love and live happily ever after, stay slim, increase their willpower and confidence, and even slow the effects of ageing.
So sit up straight and take a deep breath. It is time to rip up the rule book and embrace the truth about change.
How to change; Action speaks loudest
Here are 10 quick and effective exercises that use the As If principle to transform how you think and behave.
HAPPINESS: Smile
This is the granddaddy of them all. As Laird's study demonstrated, smile and you will feel happier. To get the most out of this exercise, make the smile as wide as possible, extend your eyebrow muscles slightly upward, and hold the resulting expression for about 20 seconds.
WILLPOWER: Tense up
As Hung's experiments show, tensing your muscles boosts your willpower. Next time you feel the need to avoid that cigarette or cream cake, make a fist, contract your biceps, press your thumb and first finger together, or grip a pen in your hand.
DIETING: Use your non-dominant hand
When you eat with your non-dominant hand you are acting as if you are carrying out an unusual behavior. Because of that you place more attention on your action, do not simply consume food without thinking about it, and so eat less.
PROCRASTINATION: Make a start
To overcome procrastination, act as if you are interested in what it is that you have to do. Spend just a few minutes carrying out the first part of whatever it is you are avoiding, and suddenly you will feel a strong need to complete the task.
PERSISTENCE: Sit up straight and cross your arms
Ron Friedman from the University of Rochester led a study where volunteers were presented with tricky problems to see how long they persevered. Those who sat up straight and folded their arms struggled on for nearly twice as long as others. Make sure your computer monitor is slightly above your eye-line and, when the going gets tough, cross your arms.
CONFIDENCE: Power pose
To increase your self-esteem and confidence, adopt a power pose. If you are sitting down, lean back, look up and interlock your hands behind your head. If you are standing up, then place your feet flat on the floor, push your shoulders back and your chest forward.
NEGOTIATION: Use soft chairs
Hard furniture is associated with hard behavior. In one study Joshua Ackerman at the MIT Sloan School of Management had participants sit on either soft or hard chairs and then negotiate over the price of a used car. Those in the hard chairs offered less and were more inflexible.
GUILT: Wash away your sins
If you are feeling guilty about something, try washing your hands or taking a shower. Chen-Bo Zhong from the University of Toronto discovered that people who carried out an immoral act and then cleaned their hands with an antiseptic wipe felt significantly less guilty than others.
PERSUASION: Nod
If people nod while they listen to a discussion they are more likely to agree with the points being made. When you want to encourage someone to agree with you, subtly nod your head as you chat with them. Research led by Gary Wells of Iowa State University shows that they will reciprocate the movement and find themselves strangely attracted to your way of thinking.
LOVE: Open up
Couples in love talk about the more intimate aspects of their lives. Research carried out by Robert Epstein, founder of the Cambridge Centre for Behavioral Studies, shows that the opposite is also true– more intimate chat makes people feel attracted to each other. If you are out on a date, get the other person to open up by asking what advice they would give to their 10-year-old self, or what one object they would save in a house fire.

text: If you had a domain, let's say "DogBoneHealthFacts.org" could this be done? 1. Pick the top 20 keywords for the niche "Dog Bone Health Facts" 2. Use an article spinner to make 20 different versions of the same article with one keyword for each article. 3. Make 20 adsense pages under the domain "DogBoneHealthFacts.org", put one article on each page. 4. Index all 20 pages for the top rank in Google. 5. Move on to the next domain. This would be cheaper as you'd have 20 potential income pages for the price of one domain. It's be easier and faster because you'd only have to spend time on one article and get 20 pages of articles in return. But the big question is, would this actually work? And would it be better than the usual adsense niche site method? (The regular adsense niche site method, for those that don't know, involves making a website with 5 keywords, 5 adsense pages and 5 completely different articles instead of spun articles.)

George Milton
- He is a small man, but has brains and a quick wit.
- He has been a good friend to Lennie, ever since he promised Lennie's Aunt Clara that he would care for him. He looks after all Lennie's affairs, such as carrying his work card, and tries to steer him out of potential trouble.
- He needs Lennie as a friend, not only because Lennie's strength helps to get them both jobs, but so as not to be lonely. His threats to leave Lennie are not really serious. He is genuinely proud of Lennie.
- He shares a dream with Lennie to own a piece of land and is prepared to work hard to build up the money needed to buy it.
- "...with us it ain't like that. We got a future. We got somebody to talk to that gives a damn about us. We don't have to sit in no bar room blowin' in our jack 'jus because we got no place else to go. If them other guys gets in jail they can rot for all anybody gives a damn. But not us."
- He is honest with people he trusts. For example, he tells Slim that he used to play tricks on Lennie when they were young, but now feels guilty about it as Lennie nearly drowned.
1 of 7
Lennie Small
- He is a big man, in contrast to his name.
- He has limited intelligence, so he relies on George to look after him. He copies George in everything George does and trusts George completely.
- "Behind him (George) walked his opposite, a huge man, shapeless of face, with large, pale eyes, with wide, sloping shoulders; and he walked heavily, dragging his feet a little, the way a bear drags his paws. His arms did not swing at his sides, but hung loosely."
- He shares a dream with George to own a piece of land. Lennie's special job would be to tend the rabbits.
- He likes to pet soft things, like puppies and dead mice. We know this got him into trouble in Weed when he tried to feel a girl's soft red dress: she thought he was going to attack her.
- He can be forgetful - George continually has to remind him about important things.
- He is very gentle and kind, and would never harm anyone or anything deliberately.
- He is extremely strong: he can work as well as two men at bucking barley.
- He is often described as a child or an animal - he drinks from the pool like a horse and his huge hands are described as paws.
2 of 7
- Slim is the jerkline skinner (lead mule-team driver) at the ranch. He is excellent at his job.
- He is the natural leader at the ranch. Everyone respects his views and looks up to him.
- He has a quiet dignity: he doesn't need to assert himself to have authority.
- "there was a gravity in his manner and a quiet so profound that all talked stopped when he spoke. His authority was so great that his word was taken on any subject, be it politics or love."
- He understands the relationship between George and Lennie. He helps George at the end and reassures George that he did the right thing.
- We know little else about him, which gives him a slightly mysterious quality. Do you think he is too good to be true?
3 of 7
- Curley is the boss's son, so he doesn't need to work like the ordinary ranch hands, and he has time to kill.
- He's little - so he hates big guys.
- He is a prize-fighter and looks for opportunities for a fight.
- "He glanced coldly at George and then at Lennie. His arms gradually bent at the elbows and his hands closed into fists. He stiffened and went into a slight crouch. His glance was at once calculating and pugnacious."
- He is newly-married and is very possessive of his wife - but he still visits brothels.
- There is a rumour that he wears a glove filled with Vaseline to keep his hand soft for his wife
4 of 7
Curely's Wife
- She is newly married to Curley.
- We never know her name - she is merely Curley's 'property' with no individual identity.
- She is young, pretty, wears attractive clothes and curls her hair.
- She seems flirtatious and is always hanging around the bunk-house.
- She is lonely - there are no other women to talk to and Curley is not really interested in her.
- "What kinda harm am I doin' to you? Seems like they ain't none of them cares how I gotta live. I tell you I ain't used to livin' like this. I coulda made somethin' of myself."
- She doesn't like Curley - she tells Lennie that she only married him when she didn't receive a letter she'd been promised to get into Hollywood.
- She is naive.
5 of 7
- Crooks is the black stable hand or buck.
- He is the only permanent employee at the ranch, since he injured his back in an accident. His back gives him constant pain.
- He is the only black man around and is made to be isolated by his colour - he can't go into the bunk-house or socialise with the men.
- He is always called the '******' by the men, which shows how racism is taken for granted. The men don't mean to insult Crooks every time they call him this, but they never think to use his name
- All this has made him proud and aloof.
- He is lonely.
- "S'pose you didn't have nobody. S'pose you couldn't go into the bunk house and play rummy 'cause you were black... A guy needs somebody - to be near him... I tell ya a guy gets too lonely an' he gets sick."
- The only time he mixes with the ranch hands socially is when they pitch horseshoes - and then he beats everyone!
- He has his own room near the stables and has a few possessions. He has books, which show he is intelligent and an old copy of the California Civil Code, which suggests he is concerned about his rights.
- He has seen many men come and go, all dreaming of buying a piece of land, but is now cynical, as no one has ever achieved it.
6 of 7
- Candy is the oldest ranch hand. He lost his right hand in an accident at work.
- He is the 'swamper' - the man who cleans the bunkhouse. He knows he will be thrown out and put 'on the county' when he is too old to work.
- Because of this, he accepts what goes on and doesn't challenge anything: he can't afford to lose his job.
- He has a very old dog, which he has had from a pup. It is his only friend and companion.
- "The old man came slowly into the room. He had his broom in his hand. And at his heels there walked a drag-footed sheep dog, gray of muzzle, and with pale, blind old eyes."
- Carlson insists on shooting the dog because he claims it is too old and ill to be of any use. Candy is devastated.
- He is lonely and isolated, but makes friends with George and Lennie and offers his compensation money to help them all to buy a ranch together and achieve their dream.
- When he finds Curley's wife dead, he is furious, as he knows instantly that Lennie was involved and that they have lost their chance of achieving their dream.

I am fascinated by Joanna Borromeo, and alt. blues R&B singer songwriter from Canada. The very fact that she calls herself "alt blues R&B" is interesting - I have not encountered another "alt" in the blues, R&B genre. She found Music Friday through our website after a recommendation from a friend who had been on the show. The more I looked up and listened to her music, the more fascinated I got. Visually, she is ambiguous: in some photos she very Asian, in others, Native American, in others African- American and in others, white. That may be in the eye of the beholder, but the intersection of cultures, either in ethnicity or geography almost always leads to great creativity. And it has in Borromeo.
For starters she is a superb R&B and blues singer-songwriter who fuses jazz, gospel, hip hop, pop and R&B and a bit of rock and pop - an ever so small bit. She plays keyboard and fronts a kickass band, but she can hold her own solo with a crystal smooth voice and lively songwriting. On tour right now, she will be playing dates in California as well as Canada and I am taking a night and doing some driving to see her live next week
Her first EP, Kaleidoscope, was nominated for a Juno Award (Canadian equivalent to the Grammys) as the best R&B recording in Canada. She didn't get the statue, but just being in the mix tells you how good she is. Even better, he is comfortable in a jazz club, a hip hop scene, rock venue or a medley music showcase, so she has lots of ways to move her career. I am looking forward to talking with her on air this Friday. Joins us.
