Medici's Chapels
The Medici Chapels were built as a personal sepulchre of the Medici family right in the basilica of San Lorenzo, the one considered by the Medici as their private church and located in front of the residential palace in via Larga (presently via Cavour). The cardinal Giulio de' Medici, the future Clemente VII, and Leone X, in 1520, involved Michelangelo Buonarroti in the project of the Sacrestia Nuova: or better of a chapel en pendant with the Sacrestia Vecchia by Filippo Brunelleschi, where distinguished members of the family would be buried. The works began in March 1520 and were definitely completed by Giorgio Vasari in 1546, after Michelangelo, in 1534, had left Florence directed to Rome.
The project provided that in the chapel would be placed the tombs of Lorenzo il Magnifico, of his brother Giuliano de' Medici, of Lorenzo the Duke of Urbino (Piero's son, the eldest son of Lorenzo) and of Giuliano the Duke of Nemours (the third son of the Magnifico): the two Magnifici and the two Capitani. Only the tombs of the Capitani were completed. On the left of the altar is the sepulchre of Lorenzo Duke of Urbino, whom, in the act of reflecting, was defined by Vasari as il Pensieroso (the thoughtful), and it is, thus, identified by the critics as the symbol of contemplative life: beneath him are, set over the volutes of the sepulchre, the symbolizations of il Crepuscolo (dusk), characterized in the face by the famous uncompleted typical of Michelangelo, and l'Aurora (dawn), of which the plastic force reveals the interest cultivated by the artist towards anatomical studies.
In front of it is the sepulchre of Giuliano, the symbol of active life, with the swagger-cane in his hand: and underneath it il Giorno (the Day), in a un motion of rebellion, and la Notte (the Night), inspirer on the other hand of very famous verses written by Michelangelo. In the Brunelleschi style architecture - because of the duotone of the grey stone with the white plaster - Tolnay interprets it as the subdivision of three spheres: the sphere of the Hades, the earthly one and at last the celestial sphere culminating with the cupola - inspired by the Pantheon's. While on the other hand the sepulchres would allude to the concept of the soul free from the earthly commitments and tending towards the contemplation of the divine life incarnated by the Virgin. This statue - created by Michelangelo in 1521 and placed above the sarcophagus of the two Magnifici - represents, in fact, the spiritual mainstay of the Chapel and is surrounded by the statues of the two patron saints of the Medici family: on the right Cosma, produced by Montorsoli (1537), and on the left Damiano, created by Raffaele da Montelupo (1531).

text: Sam-Reinders-Township-Tourism-SouthAfrica_31 TOWNSHIP TOURISM During South Africa's apartheid regime townships were established as dormitory suburbs for black laborers who came to the cities from rural areas. Prior to 1994, these townships were not only the center for the fight against apartheid, but one of the most visible symbols of its brutality. A legacy of under-development during this era meant that few townships had decent infrastructure, education facilities or reliable essential services. Poverty, overcrowding and oppression were all daily burdens. Despite incredible changes in South Africa since then, millions still live in townships today. In recent years, tourism has overtaken gold as South Africa's top foreign exchange earner. In an effort to get a taste of the "real South Africa" increasing numbers of visitors are doing tours of the townships made famous during the apartheid struggle. A booming industry has developed around this type of tourism. Touring a township is an eye-opener, at once hugely depressing but at the same time an uplifting testament to the resilience of the human spirit. The aim of these tours is to highlight the plight of a massive sector of South African society that was, and still is, grossly underprivileged, as well as to begin to break down the negative stereotypes that cloud images of the townships as being dirty, depraved and crime ridden. Despite their good intentions though – these tours have been criticized as making a voyeuristic theme park out of poverty - invading the privacy and crushing the pride of its residents.

Book a bed and breakfast in Washington
A romantic getaway awaits when you book a bed and breakfast in Washington. The beauty of renting a B&B is that each one is unique. A farm B&B is cozy and rustic, while a luxury B&B provides top-of-the-line luxuries, including in-room jet tubs and thousand thread-count sheets. And let's not forget the most important part of its name…breakfast! Bed & breakfasts are famous for putting out a great spread each morning. Fill your plate with fluffy pancakes with maple syrup, hot eggs right from the pan, and a cup of hot coffee to help get you ready for the rest of your day.
All are welcome at Washington bed n breakfasts
Some cheap accommodations are designed to simply give travelers a roof overhead and a comfortable bed to sleep on between adventures or business meetings. This definitely isn't the case with a bed and breakfast (also known as a breakfast inn). The right B&B doesn't just host your vacation to Washington, it becomes part of it. In many cases, travelers get to know the manager of the B&B, as well as mingle with other guests. Many B&Bs also arrange activities for guests, such as hikes in the area, bird watching outings, or fun game nights.
B&B hotels have a reputation as a romantic retreat for couples. However, B&Bs are actually for all sorts of travelers. Book one with a parent, child, or your favorite travel buddy. Want to take your fur child on your adventure to Washington? A quick search through Orbitz will bring up pet-friendly B&B options so your best friend can come along.

The videogame sections of this blog can be boiled down to a single long, frustrated lament at everything that's been going wrong in the industry. I'm sure all of this will sound familiar to you: Gameplay has gotten simpler, games have gotten shorter, stories have gotten dumber*, and DRM has evolved into new and increasingly hideous forms with each passing year. Art styles have become muddled and brown, and terrifying sums of money have been spent on an army of bump-mapped, motion-captured, Uncanny Valley denizens who have dialog that is too stupid for human ears. It would be one thing if this vexing of consumers and murder of quality was being perpetrated in pursuit of some money. I can understand that, even if I don't respect it. But for all of the damage we've witnessed, studios are going out of business and big-budget titles are losing money.
* Perhaps it would be more accurate to say that smart games have become rarer. In either case, it's dragging down the average IQ of gaming.
As I've staggered through this wreckage, taking notes and pointing out the egregious failures that have brought us here, I have struggled to figure out which part of this mess infuriates me the most. Probably DRM. But a close second is the recent habit of taking old beloved franchises, hollowing them out, stuffing them full of crap, and selling them to the hapless fans of the original. Calling BioShock a "spiritual successor" to the open-ended, skillpoint-building, free-roaming, exploration-driven, cyberpunk-flavored System Shock 2 was probably the worst example of this. A close second would be whatever this THING is that they're hilariously calling "XCOM". This is an awful practice, and I am not amused.
Which brings us to this, a revival of the beloved classic Deus Ex, a game from another era. Before sticky cover, before bump mapping, before crazy DRM, before console-driven simplification, before the Brown Age. The only question in my mind was, "Just how badly can they mangle this masterpiece and still call it Deus Ex with a straight face?"
You can see what this game will be like without even installing it: The entire world will be the color of a dirty gun, comprised mostly of closet-sized military installations. Five minutes into the game you'll meet a complete jackass who is wearing a sign saying, "HI. I'M THE BAD GUY. YOU WILL FIGHT ME AT THE END." The moral choices (if any) will boil down to "rescue kitten" or "eat kitten".
I didn't want to be duped by this game, so I fired up the old Deus Ex and played for a couple of hours. The classic was as good as I remember, and it helped me to calibrate my expectations so that I wouldn't be blinded by spectacle. After that palette-cleansing experience, I played three hours of Deus Ex: Human Revolution, and I think I'm ready to talk about everything this game gets wrong:
- The loading times are a bit long, I guess.
Sorry, that's all I've got. The truth is, this is a really good game. Here, let me emphasize that for you using boldface type: This is a really good game.
|I realize it seems absurd to lead off with a picture of a mop bucket, but this is an important part of creating and maintaining versimilitude. This setting feels like a place inhabited by human beings because of little touches like this, and the world is full of them.
I don't know how this happened, but Human Revolution is exceptional. Not just by today's standards of brown blandness, but in the broader, historical sense of games that pulled me in and delivered a thrilling experience. The world is vibrant, filled with rich detail, and littered with little interactive touches. The level designers didn't just make a bunch of rooms for shooting dudes, they made a space and set about trying to convince me these were real spaces, filled with purpose.
And the gameplay. I don't even know how to describe it. I mean, just look at this:
That's an inventory screen. A real one. Not one of those "you have five slots, each of which can hold either a bag of chips or a rocket launcher" deals that we usually get. This is a grid of stuff that you can pick up, modify, arrange, discard, combine, and consume as needed. They even retained the "hotbar" of the original. The icing on the cake is that you can even spend skill points to expand your available space, which wasn't possible in the original game. Did I just claim the inventory is more robust than the one in Deus Ex? I think I did.
Yes, this is a cover-based shooter. You will not be circle-strafing your way to victory in this one. I'm not really qualified to rate this sort of combat, but I will say as a fan of old-school run & gun: I don't hate this. It works, it feels right, and I don't find myself getting glued to random surfaces like in Kane & Lynch, my last cover-shooter. Cover-shooter aficionados can let me know how this stacks up against other titles.
The story is fitting. It starts slow, with a walking intro that reminds me of the Half-Life tram ride. (In a good way. I know the tram ride intro has been frequently and badly immitated in the past, but this is one of those cases where it works.) You can gawk and fiddle with the environment while the characters do a bit of tight exposition. No, the writers aren't so crass as to pull an info dump on you. They gave me just enough background to keep me curious, without trying my patience. (And yes, they made sure to drop 451 in the tutorial.)
The main character hits the right notes. Jensen is gruff enough to fit in a cyberpunk future world, but human enough that I can relate to him. I actually like him better than JC Denton. He certainly doesn't look like the guy who got kicked out of a boy band for being too sensitive, which was a problem last time they tried to revive this franchise. His delivery is a low brooding murmur, reminicient of Walton Simons from the first game. In my review of Invisible War, I said:
It would have been far better to keep the premise and throw out the story. Start over with a new mix of conspiracies. You could even keep the character of JC Denton, but drop him into a different reality this time around. Instead of working for UNATCO, maybe he starts off as a cop or a bodyguard or a secret service agent. Instead of a plague, society is dealing with some new designer drug. Or weapon. Cyborgs. You know, whatever. The foes would be different and their goals would be different, but the process of unraveling a series of escalating conspiracies would remain the same. The first time you uncover the Illuminati is fun. The second time through, you begin to wonder how these guys ever kept their organization a secret in the first place.
They actually did this. You're not ANOTHER nano agent, or a UNATCO agent. You're a private security guy working for a corporation.
The setting is slightly (but forgivably) revisionist. The original Deus Ex felt very "close future". The building, technology, and clothing styles all felt pretty much like current-day stuff. Human Revolution is supposedly a prequel, which means it should be even closer to present day, but the clothing and technology suggest something a little further into the future. This does not bother me. As I said in the quote above, I think having continuity between world-spanning conspiracy games is asking for trouble. I'm here for tone and style, not game-to-game continuity. (Although I do want each game to stand on its own, continuity-wise.)
Of course, I'm only a few hours in. Maybe the story falls apart or the third act will be a dull slog of mandatory combat or whatever. But based on my first date with Human Revolution, this is a game built with love and respect for the original, made with the best of intentions, and beautifully realized. As further proof that this is a game from some alternate dimension where videogames haven't gone straight to hell in a series of overpriced handbaskets: The game doesn't seem to have any of the recent DRM horrors attached. My review copy is through Steam, and there were no other shenanigans between myself and the fun. No CD keys, no account creation, no activation, no day-1 DLC, nothing.
I am overjoyed. I haven't felt this enthsiastic about a game since Portal 2. This is a real thing. It's happening. I'm actually feeling guilt playing this review copy. I need to go out and give people money for this.
Linux vs. Windows
Finally, the age-old debate has been settled.
The No Politics Rule
Here are 6 reasons why I forbid political discussions on this site. #4 will amaze you. Or not.
Fixing Match 3
For one of the most popular casual games in existence, Match 3 is actually really broken. Until one developer fixed it.
Shamus Plays LOTRO
As someone who loves Tolkein lore and despises silly MMO quests, this game left me deeply conflicted.
The Disappointment Engine
No Man's Sky is a game seemingly engineered to create a cycle of anticipation and disappointment.

Trusted by Sailors - 250+ 5 Star Google Reviews
A life jacket is the most important piece of gear for anyone spending time on the water. Shop our selection of great fitting and durable US Coast Guard approved life jackets, Buoyancy Aids, Inflatable PFDs, and pinnies for adult and junior sailors.
Sailing life jackets are an essential part of your apparel kit and the one piece of gear that can truly save your life. The importance of a life vest, especially for kids, is obvious and cannot be taken lightly by anyone who gets on a small sailboat. Be safe and enjoy your time on the water with these comfortable and stylish life jackets. We carry US Coast Guard approved life jackets as well as CE approved Buoyancy Aids and Inflatable PFDs. Options available for men, women, and kids in a variety of styles, colors, and price points, so we have something for every budget.
US Coast Guard Approved Life Jackets These are US Coast Guard approved, Type III life jackets (sometimes called personal flotation devices or PFDs), and meet all requirements for US Sailing. Type III life jackets are the most common among small boat sailors. They have more foam buoyancy than a buoyancy aid and are designed to keep a person facing upwards in the water, even when unconscious. This is the primary safety benefit over a buoyancy aid and why a proper USCG approved life jacket is recommended for most sailors, particularly youth sailors and those who are poor swimmers.
Buoyancy AidsPopular in Europe, buoyancy aids are typically lighter and more slim fitting than USCG approved PFDs. They have less foam buoyancy than a proper life jacket and will not keep a person upright in the water if unconscious. These should only be used by experienced swimmers and in conditions where there is access to quick rescue and/or sailing in sheltered water.
Inflatable PFDsDesigned for larger boat sailing, these vests automatically inflate in water. Popular among keelboat and offshore sailors. They are not recommended for dinghy sailors who may more routinely enter the water in the event of a capsize as this will trigger the inflation. They offer similar flotation properties to a standard Type III life jacket.
Pinnies & Spandex VestsTypically worn over a life jacket or buoyancy aid, these stretchy spandex tops help prevent snags. They are often decorated for team sailing. By no means a required piece of gear, they have become popular among many dinghy sailors to represent clubs and sailing teams.

Spray tops, thermal tops, spandex tops, and technical shirts for sailing.
Sail comfortably and maximize your time on the water with a new sailing top. Shop our industry leading selection of waterproof spray tops, warm thermal tops, and lightweight spandex tops for warm weather and UV protection. Options for adult and junior sailors from Rooster, Zhik, Ronstan, Gill, and more in stock for fast shipping.
The classic Spray Top, or smock top, is a waterproof top often used by dinghy sailors as an outer layer, protecting you from spray and wind chill. In cold conditions, wear one over your wetsuit or other thermal layers. In warmer, wet conditions, simply wear over a spandex or other technical top. Pair with a pair of spray pants or salopettes for top to bottom protection. For cold weather sailing or pairing with wetsuits, check out our thermal smock tops from Gill and Rooster. We offer a variety of spray tops and smocks from Gill, Zhik, Rooster, Ronstan, and Helly Hansen for adults and juniors.
Thermal Sailing Tops are a key part of the dinghy sailing kit for cold weather. These tops can satisfy two needs: worn as a warm, insulating layer under a smock top or worn as an outer layer in mild conditions. They work great when worn with a farmer john style wetsuit or under a smock top and spray pants. Thermal tops offer tons of versatility and allow proper laying in changing sailing conditions.
The classic spandex top, often called a rash guard, is a timeless piece of dinghy sailing kit. These tops fit snugly to help pull water away from your skin and offer UV protection for sunny days. Available in multiple styles for men, women, and junior sailors.

A drysuit offers full body protection from the elements and a favorite for cold weather sailing!
Sailing deep into the cold of winter? A drysuit is a must for any dinghy sailor sailing in extremely cold conditions. Waterproof fabric and seals at the wrist and neck mean your drysuit is fully submersible and will keep you warm and dry inside. Layer up with a combination of base layers and mid layers depending on the conditions.
Fabric - Four layer, fully waterproof and breathable fabric is the standard for sailing drysuits. While the brand name of the fabric may vary, all options keep water out while allowing moisture to escape, keeping you comfortable during active sailing.
Neck & Wrist Seals - Seals at the neck and wrist fit tightly to keep water out. These are either made from latex, neoprene, or a combination of the two. Older drysuits featured latex seals almost exclusively, but advances in fabric have allowed the use of softer, easier to handle neoprene fabrics that offer the same protection with a higher degree of comfort.
Booties - The base of a drysuit features two sewn in booties, which complete the full protection of the suit. Typically these booties are made from latex rubber or from the same waterproof and breathable fabric as the rest of the drysuit. Like latex seals, latex booties were the standard for many years, but all drysuits we carry now feature fabric booties which offer more long term durability and are less likely to puncture.
Zipper - Getting in and out of a 100% waterproof, full body drysuit requires a large zipper. Like improvements found in seals and booties, the classic (and very heavy!) bronze zipper has been replaced with a flexible waterproof zipper that is easier to maintain and operate.
Internal Suspenders - Since a drysuit is one piece, many include a set of internal suspenders or straps that help keep the drysuit up and take some of the weight off of your shoulders. This feature is not found in all drysuits, but certainly makes wearing one a bit more comfortable if wearing for extended periods of time.
Think About Layers - While a drysuit keeps water out, maintaining a comfortable body temperature depends on what you wear under the drysuit. A proper system of base layers to wick moisture and mid layers for additional warmth is key to allowing the drysuit to perform at its full potential and to keeping you comfortable on the water.
Don't Forget Hat & Gloves - A warm hat and a good pair of cold weather sailing gloves will round out your kit nicely.
Lubricate the Zipper - Use Zip Tech Zipper Lubricant to maintain your zipper, but even chap stick will work in a pinch.
Rise with Fresh Water - If sailing in salt water, always try to rinse your drysuit with fresh water after use.
Store Properly - Store drysuit unfolded, unzipped, and away from dirt and dust.

These are a must for late fall, winter, and early spring sailing. And finally, if you're looking for ultra lightweight grip, check out our selection of gardening grip gloves, designed to grip small diameter line and hold on tight. These are prefect for skiff sailors. We also carry several offshore gloves for use on larger boats or in cold sailing conditions.
Short Finger Gloves - Traditional style sailing gloves with reinforced palm and great durability for handling line on a sailboats. These gloves are cut to have all five fingers exposed for ease of tying knots and handling small hardware. Great for use in warmer weather.
Long Finger Gloves - Similar to Short Finger Gloves, except the middle three fingers are fully protected. While typically not designed for use in colder weather, these gloves do offer a bit more protection for your hands. Most short finger gloves are available in a matching long finger style.
Winter Gloves - Sailing gloves designed for sailing in colder conditions, typically made from a neoprene fabric for insulation with a reinforced palm for handling small lines.
Gardening Grip Gloves - Popular among skiff sailors who need excellent grip for small, technical lines, these lightweight gloves have a sticky grip surface that works well for short term use but won't hold up as long as a traditional Short Finger or Long Finger sailing glove.
Offshore Gloves - Heavy weight gloves designed for offshore or coastal sailing. These typically won't hold up as well when handling small lines on smaller boats, but are great for use on cruising boats with larger line diameters.

These garments are designed specifically with kids in mind but include all the best features found in adult gear. Not sure what size you need? Check out our sizing notes below where we've attempted to standardize sizing information across brands so that you can shop accordingly.
Many sailing brands make youth or junior specific gear, though each brand uses a slightly different sizing chart and scale for assigning junior sizing. Typically, Gill 'junior specific' gear is available in sizes Junior S, Junior M, and Junior L, which roughly correlates to a Kids 8, Kids 10, and Kids 12. The brands Ronstan, Stohlquist, and WinDesign follow a similar convention. Zhik sizing now includes a fourth size, so their range is Junior S to Junior XL, which correlates to Kids 8 - Kids 14. We understand this can be confusing, so our best advice is to please consult size charts on specific products for more information before making a sizing decision for your junior sailor.

For Laser sails, select the 12 inch numbers in either Digital 8 or Euro style. We also stock Hobie Cat specific numbers for boats like the Hobie 16, Hobie 17, and Hobie 17 plus Tasar class specific red numbers.
Types of Sail Numbers
Digital 8 - These are universal numbers in the shape of the digit '8' from which you can cut any specific number you need.
Pre Cut / Euro - Unlike Digital 8 numbers, 'Euro' style or 'Pre Cut' numbers are cut to specific numbers or letters for a clean finish. These are preferred by many sailors as they have a higher quality look on the sail.

If you are replacing an existing line, the easiest way to determine what diameter you need is to match what you already have. This can be done with a caliper or by close estimation with a tape measure. If you've previously used a 5mm control line and it has performed well, another 5mm line is likely a great choice. In most applications, there is some flexibility in the exact diameter that can be used. Most blocks, for example, have an 'ideal' diameter (ie, the line diameter that runs most effectively though the block's sheave) but also have a range so that you can run a slightly thinner or slightly thicker line. If you have a control line that is getting hung up in your rig, stepping down 1-2mm might help the halyard run more efficiently. If you have a larger boat or rig and want to run a thinner control line , consider a double braid high tech line that features a Dyneema or spectra core for strength.
1mm = 3/64 inch | 2mm = 5/64 inch | 3mm = 1/8 inch
4mm = 5/32 inch | 5mm = 3/16 inch | 6mm = 1/4 inch
7mm = 9/32 inch | 8mm = 5/16 inch | 9mm = 3/8 inch
10mm = 25/64 in | 11mm = 7/16 in | 12mm = 1/2 in
Two terms you will often see in line descriptions are 'double braid' and 'single braid', which refer to the way the line is constructed. At the most basic level, a double braid line has a cover and a core whereas a single braid does not, but there are other important distinctions to consider when making a line selection.
Single Braids are made up of either 8 or 12 strands that are braided into a circular pattern, half clockwise and half counter clockwise. This produces a line that is supple, absorbs twists, and tends not to kink. There are two types of single braid lines: performance single braids and polyester/blended single braids. Performance single braids are made from fibers with very low stretch and designed to handle extreme loads - think Dyneema, Spectra, or Vectran. Polyester/blended single braids, sometimes called hollow braid, are soft and easy to grip, built for sheets and hand-adjusted control lines. These are less common than performance single braid lines but recommended in a few specific applications.
Double Braids, sometimes called braid on braid, have a braided core within a braided outer jacket or cover. This creates a strong, durable, smooth-running line that is easy to handle. Double braids are used for the vast majority of all running rigging on sailboats including sheets, halyards and control lines for both cruising or racing. There are two types to consider: polyester double braids and high-tech double braids. Polyester double braids, found most commonly on recreational and cruising sailboats, have a polyester cover with polyester core. These are low maintenance, affordable, and long-lasting, while offering relatively low stretch and high working loads. For additional strength and minimal stretch, consider high-tech double braids. These lines typically feature a Dyneema or Spectra core (non-stretch) inside a polyester or polyester/dyneema blend cover for additional durability. They are more expensive but often the go to choice for high performance racing boats.
For control lines, we typically recommend Double Braids, particularly for the portion which is either cleated or is handled by the sailor. If you control line system requires a 'secondary' line (such as on a Laser vang, for example), a single braid high tech line such as Dyneema or Spectra is appropriate.

Line for sailboat main halyards, jib halyards, and spinnaker halyards. For advice on selecting the right halyard, see the information at the bottom of this page.
A halyard line is the rope that pulls the sail up the mast. On some small sailboats, this might be a short 20 foot length of basic 5mm line. On larger, performance boats, this might be 80 feet of high tech double braid line. No matter what type of halyard line you need, West Coast Sailing has you covered. Shop diameters between 4 mm and 12 mm including favorites such as Marlow Doublebraid, Robline Admiral 5000, Dinghy Control Line, Sirus 500, and more.

If you are replacing an existing line, the easiest way to determine what diameter you need is to match what you already have. This can be done with a caliper or by close estimation with a tape measure. If you've previously used a 7mm halyard and it has performed well, another 7mm line is likely a great choice. In most applications, there is some flexibility in the exact diameter that can be used. Most blocks, for example, have an 'ideal' diameter (ie, the line diameter that runs most effectively though the block's sheave) but also have a range so that you can run a slightly thinner or slightly thicker line. If you have a halyard that is getting hung up in your rig, stepping down 1-2mm might help the halyard run more efficiently. If you have a larger boat or rig and want to run a thinner halyard, consider a double braid line that features a Dyneema or spectra core for strength.
For halyards, we typically recommend a line with double braid construction because they hold their shape well under load and when cleated or in a clutch.

If you are replacing an existing line, the easiest way to determine what diameter you need is to match what you already have. This can be done with a caliper or by close estimation with a tape measure. If you've previously used a 7mm sheet and it has performed well, another 7mm line is likely a great choice. In most applications, there is some flexibility in the exact diameter that can be used. Most blocks, for example, have an 'ideal' diameter (ie, the line diameter that runs most effectively though the block's sheave) but also have a range so that you can run a slightly thinner or slightly thicker line. If you have a sheet that is getting hung up in your rig, stepping down 1-2mm might help the sheet run more efficiently. If you have a larger boat or rig and want to run a thinner sheet, consider a double braid line that features a Dyneema or spectra core for strength.
For control lines, the exact choice can vary based on preference and type of boat sailed, but typically we recommend a standard single braid (soft hand, great for mainsheets on smaller boats!) or a double braid polyester or double braid high tech line.

Line has come a long way in the past few decades, and current options offer great value and performance. We offer a variety of high tech Lines, which generally feature a non-stretch core for strength, durable cruising lines, which are typically polyester and less expensive but still strong and durable, or Dyneema, Spectra, & Vectran for non-stretch control line, halyard, and sheet applications. Shockcord bungee and floating Polypropylene also available. Scroll down this page for recommendations for line material based on your boat size and application.
Polyester &Polypropylene
High tech line for performance dinghy sailing including FSE Dinghy Control, Marlow Excel Racing, Alpha SSR, and more.
For sailboat racing, high tech line that is durable and offers minimal stretch isn't an option, it's a requirement. West Coast Sailing offers a range of high tech line options including Samson Ultra-Lite, Alpha Ropes SSR, Robline Dinghy Control, Marlow Excel Racing, and Robline Coppa 500. These lines have a strong, low stretch Spectra or Dynemma core with a durable cover.
Durable Line Options for Recreational and Cruising Sailors
Outfitting your sailboat for recreational sailing or cruising doesn't mean sacrificing on line. At West Coast Sailing, we offer a variety of high quality, durable, and affordable line options designed for the recreational and cruising sailor. Line has come a long way in the past 5-10 years, with even the most entry level options offering more strength, durability, and uv resistance than ever before.
Spectra and Vectran line have extremely low stretch and are perfect for performance applications such as travelers or as part on a control set up.
If you're looking for line with near zero stretch, then our selection of Dyneema, Spectra, and Vectran lines are for you! These high tech lines have near zero stretch and perfect for performance applications such as travelers or as part on a control set up. These lines are uncovered and more likely to wear, but do feature UV coating to protect from sun damage.
Dynema® and Spectra® are made from UHMWPE (Ultra High Molecular Weight PolyEthylene), a long chain, high strength, oriented strand, synthetic fiber with very high strength and high abrasion resistance. This fiber is also known as HMPE (High Modulus PolyEthylene). Dynema® is the Dutch company DSM Dyneema's brand of UHMWPE, used by Samson in their Amsteel and Amsteel-Blue dyneema lines. Honeywell International produces a similar UHMWPE fiber, marketed as Spectra®. Both Dyneema (Dynema) and Spectra offer nearly identical characteristics are can be used interchangeably in sailing applications, depending on where you source your line.
Made from a LCP (liquid crystal polymer) fiber, Vectran exhibits high strength, excellent creep and abrasion resistance, excellent flex/fold and chemical resistance, and outstanding heat and cut resistance. Vectran is an alternative to Dyneema or Spectra and less stretch and creep. Many think Vectran is the ultimate fiber, though it does not have quite the fatigue life or UV resistance of Dyneema or Spectra. Also it is a little heavier and will not float.
Dyneema, Spectra, and Vectran lines are recommend for use in applications where low to zero stretch is the core requirement. It's common to see these lines used as halyards, in sail control line systems, as travelers, or even as replacements for wire rigging in some performance applications. Since most low stretch Dyneema, Spectra, and Vectran lines are a single-braid without a cover, they are not recommended for applications where the line needs to be cleated and uncleated often. In those use cases you'll want to consider a line with a cover, such as a high performance dyneema or spectra core line with a heavy duty polyester cover.
The Dyneema, Spectra, and Vectran lines on this page are Single Braids. The exception is the Robline Dinghy Vectran, which has a Vectran core.
Shop our selection of Shockcord & Bungee plus floating Polypropylene Line
Shockcord, or bungee, is used on small sailboats to secure daggerboards, centerboards, hiking straps, and more. This stretchy line is useful anywhere you need give in an attachment point. Polypropylene is a floating line commonly used as a bow line on small boats such as Optimists and Lasers.
Shockcord is a unique type of line that stretches and then recovers back to the original length. The core is comprised of parallel strands of round latex rubber yielding 85% to 100% elongation and recovery, with a polyester cover. West Coast Sailing offers a high quality shockcord in a range of diameters.
Polypropylene is a thermoplastic polymer material that has a wide variety of uses. For sailors, it offers a line that is tough, flexible, and strong yet lightweight enough to float which makes this ideal for dinghies and small keel boats. It is commonly used as a dinghy tow rope, an economy dinghy mainsheet, or even as a spinnaker take down line on larger keel boats.

Jon Garland (9-11, 4.23) vs. Daniel McCutchen (0-1, 4.85).
COMMENTS: Last time I said not taking a series against a losing team would be a disappointment, the Dodgers dropped two of three to the D'backs. But I'm going to risk it again: Not beating the 55-86 Buckys would be a HUGE disappointment.
The fly in the ointment could be McCutchen, in only his third major-league start. Let's hope the Dodgers' history of faring poorly against green pitchers doesn't continue tonight. Meanwhile, the Rockies are visiting San Francisco, where the Giants have taken five of six from them. I wouldn't mind seeing that trend continue.

Antievolutionists Say the Darndest Things
Antievolutionists often express outrage over alleged incivility from those who oppose their efforts to evade the establishment clause of the First Amendment. But they have no difficulty in dishing out the abuse themselves. Here is a sample from the Invidious Comparisons thread that documents egregious behavior on the part of the religious antievolution advocates.
IDC advocate Phillip E. Johnson:
Darwinian evolution with its blind watchmaker thesis makes me think of a great battleship on the ocean of reality. Its sides are heavily armored with philosophical barriers to criticism, and its decks are stacked with big rhetorical guns ready to intimidate any would-be attackers. In appearance, it is as impregnable as the Soviet Union seemed to be only a few years ago.

NEW YORK (AP) - This could give you nightmares: 1 in 24 U.S. adults say they recently fell asleep while driving.
And health officials think the number is probably higher. That's because some people don't realize it when they nod off for a second or two behind the wheel.
In a government study released Thursday, a little over 4 percent of U.S. adults said they fell asleep while driving at least once in the previous month. Some earlier studies reached a similar conclusion, but the survey by the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention was far larger.
The study found drowsy driving was more common in men and in people ages 25 to 34.
The results are from a survey of 147,000 adults in 2009 and 2010.

PRESTO is a very flexible USB in-system programmer that supports a large variety of integrated circuits Microchip PIC, Atmel AVR, TI MSP430, ARM and 8051 microcontrollers; serial EEPROMs (SPI, Microwire and I2C); serial data Flash; CPLD; and FPGA.
PRESTO is fast: A full PIC18F8720 can be programmed and verified in only six seconds!
Powered through USB, PRESTO requires no external power supply.
PRESTO directly supports in-circuit programming using a dedicated ICSP connector and an included cable. It features an enhanced ICSP connector, with two more pins allowing support of a wider range of components.
Out-of-circuit programming can be achieved by connecting the ICSP leads from the PRESTO to the ISP2ZIF socket adapter, sold separately.
The target application device can be powered by PRESTO (5V nominally) or can be powered by an application within a voltage range 3V to 5V (with 10% tolerance).
PRESTO features a "Go" button to begin the programming without having to reach for your computer keyboard or mouse, and status LEDs to let you know it's ready and when it's working.
The possibility of device damage due to user error is drastically reduced by overcurrent limitation of target supply and programming voltages. Target supply overvoltage detection also is implemented.
Supports all serially programmable PICs (all Flash devices and the most popular OTP/JW)
Devices with SPI low voltage serial downloading -- for example ATtiny12, AT90S8535, ATmega128 and AT89S51. Also Atmel ATmega devices via JTAG interface.

Aluminium: Hypancistrus sp. "Queen Arabesque" (L 260)
24,95 € – 79,95 €
Includes 19% VAT.
plus shipping
Strictly speaking our aluminum plates are aluminum dibond plates, that means it is a black plastic plate which is covered on both sides with an aluminum layer. This was then brushed on one side dull, to reach a very noble finish. Then we print our pictures directly onto this brushed aluminum layer. The clou is that no white is printed here, i.e. all the white parts of the pictures remain transparent, so the metal from the background shimmers through. Especially pictures with quite high black and white contrasts are very impressive. Upon special request, any other dimensions and motifs are possible. Please note, however, the minimum size is 10 * 10 cm and the maximum 300 * 150 cm. Larger dimensions must then be produced in several plates.
