Post subject: Kyle Katarn Lightsabers (Dark Forces II and Jedi Outcast)
Thought I'd share a couple of the sabers from my collection. One of them is a Kyberlight that I've modded, and the other is a "Bane" model Ultrasaber, customized for color changing.
Kyle Katarn/Qu Rahn Saber:
As I mentioned, this is a Kyberlight kit saber that I utilized a combination of repainting, sanding, and custom parts making in order to make it more like Kyle's first Lightsaber in Dark Forces II, left for him by Rahn. In the initial kit, I received a an emitter accessory that featured four prongs that extended outward. I cut those prongs off, and used a grinder to sand down the edge so it would simply be a cylindrical ring to make the emitter more like Kyle's. I then took some paper-thin copper sheeting, sanded it to emphasize the metallic finish, and inserted it underneath the emitter, which held the copper in place. I then took the original grip accessory, repainted it, and affixed it to the saber hilt higher up than originally intended, holding it in place using a combination of pressure from overlapping with the copper sheeting, as well as bracing it with one of the screws that came with the kit. All the upper saber parts still leave all three fixing screws accessible, so I can still attach the blade for dueling purposes. For the base of the saber, I simply removed the pommel, as Kyle's saber's pommel doesn't resemble any that are sold by Kyberlight, and made a rubber plug that conforms to the shape of the inside, which holds the speaker in place firmly. I put a hole in the center of the plug to allow sound to escape freely from the speaker, and this ended up making the saber louder, as there was no pommel filtering it any longer. This additionally made the saber itself much lighter. Finally, using the fixing screw originally intended to secure the covertec wheel, I removed the wheel, and instead attached a D-clip, on top of two washers (to prevent the screw from burrowing into the battery pack inside). The result perfectly snugs the d-clip to the side of the hilt, and makes it possible to hang the saber from a belt hook, as they did in the OT and EU before the prequels were made. Obviously its still a work in progress, but I love it, and it works great for my costume. I still want to add the black mid-hilt portion, just above the grip, as well as the bracket that runs the length of the hilt, and the black pommel from the game.
"The Krayt Dragon":
This was an Ultrasaber that I purchased a few years ago from Megacon in Orlando. Originally I bought it as a stunt saber, upgraded to include the color-changing feature, both because I didn't want to be stuck with only one color (green is my favorite, but I like to change it up on occasion), and because the extra buttons increased the length of the hilt. I later had it upgraded for the Obsidian sound as well. My goal for this purchase was to both choose a saber hilt style that suited my actual swordfighting ability (I'm tall, and have long arms, so superior reach is good for me), as well as emulate the style of saber hilt that Kyle Katarn utilized in Jedi Outcast and Jedi Academy, which was an extra long hilt with a blue blade. Essentially, Kyle's style is the "bastard sword" of Lightsabers, haha. The only personal modifications I made to the saber were to modify the covertec wheel to hang from a belt hook, rather than utilizing the covertec clip. I chose this because A. I prefer the belt hook to the covertecs, and B. New Jedi Order era sabers were frequently shown to clip to belts the same way that OT Lightsabers did, so I figured it would be more appropriate for the costumes I do. I also use it for an OC costume I put together, named Davin Creel.

The islets of Langerhans are destroyed in type I diabetes mellitus. This occurs probably as a consequence of a genetic susceptibility, followed by the onset of autoimmune destruction triggered by some environmental factor such as a viral infection. Heavy lymphocytic infiltrates appear in and around islets. The number and size of islets are eventually reduced, leading to decreased insulin production and glucose intolerance.
The islets of Langerhans are normal in number or somewhat reduced with type II diabetes mellitus. Fibrosis and deposition of amylin polypeptide within islets are most characteristic of the chronic states of type II diabetes.
There are a variety of complications involving the kidney. Both nodular and diffuse glomerulosclerosis can lead to chronic renal failure. Diabetics are prone to infections, particularly pyelonephritis. Both bacterial and fungal infections can occur.
The eyes can be affected in several ways by diabetes mellitus. Diabetic retinopathy is one of the leading causes for irreversible blindness in the United States. This retinopathy can occur with either type I or type II diabetes mellitus, usually a decade or so after the onset of diabetes. Most persons with type I diabetes and many of those with type II diabetes develop some background (non-proliferative ) retinopathy. Proliferative retinopathy is more ominous and is more likely to occur when diabetes mellitus is poorly controlled.
In severe retinopathy, neovascularization may lead to adhesions (synechiae) between iris and cornea or iris and lens. Neovascularization of the iris leads to secondary glaucoma with blindness.
Cataracts are more common in diabetics. This predilection for development of cataracts is felt to result from hyperglycemia leading to accumulation of sorbitol that results in osmotic damage to the crystalline lens.
Persons with diabetes mellitus, either type I or type II, have early and
accelerated atherosclerosis. The most serious complications of this are
atherosclerotic heart disease, cerebrovascular disease, and renal disease. The most common cause of death with diabetes mellitus is myocardial infarction.
Peripheral vascular disease is a particular problem with diabetes mellitus and is made worse through the development of diabetic neuropathy, leading to propensity for injury.
This is a feared complication of diabetes mellitus. Diabetic ketoacidosis helps to potentiate the growth of Mucor. The site of involvement is typically the nasopharyngeal region, but the infection can spread to involve soft tissues and bone of the face, orbit, skull, and brain.

Our Vacation Rental Program is designed for homeowners who wish to generate supplemental cash flow and tax benefits from the rental of their property, with the peace of mind that comes with full service management. Under that umbrella, we utilize the following services to drive revenue.
Marketing & Advertising
Proper staging, professional photos, and daily advertising and marketing outreach on behalf of your property are included within our standard management service. We market online to new customers via targeted search and social media ads, and across all relevant travel sites such as VRBO, FlipKey, AIRBNB and Homeaway. Previous customers and referrals are also a large driver of business, contributing to nearly half of all reservations. Our monthly newsletters put properties and specials directly in front of our customer database, while our presence on tourism and hospitality boards and our reputation within the community drive referrals.
Market Insight & Metrics
Market price is an important element of your rental unit. In pricing your property, we employ comps of similar properties within our vacation rental program to set an competitive price range. We then utilize metrics throughout the booking process to evaluate all traffic and reservations. This cross of market experience and sophisticated metrics allows us to constantly adjust and improve your property's pricing & marketing.
Lead Management
Our custom CRM responds to all inquiries instantly with availability and pricing, increasing the likelihood of every rental. Additionally, our knowledgeable staff of vacation planners utilizes a lead tracking system to follow up and consistently sell your property. We are staffed seven days and provide someone on call 24 hours a day in the case of an emergency.
Cleaning & Maintenance
Our maintenance and housekeeping staffs provide the fastest and best service possible to both our homeowners and guests. Departure cleaning, as well as a thorough inspection of the premises, are provided after each guest checks out – at no cost to the owner. Pre-arrivals stock the property with the proper linens and desired guest amenities.
City Tax & Ordinances
We collect the required guest lodging tax and pay it for you monthly as required by the city ordinance. We also inform you and comply with key city ordinances, rental licenses, noise ordinances, and new and evolving city codes.
Smart-Home Management
A digital keyless access system is installed and maintained on all of our properties at no cost to you. This keyless access allows us to monitor and audit access to your property real time, providing greater security and operational efficiently. Additionally, owners have the opportunity to opt in with A/C and Pool Heat energy management; by connecting utility use with our keyless access and reservation system, owners save upwards of 10-15% on monthly utility bills.
For more information on our Vacation Rental Program, you can contact us by email at firstname.lastname@example.com or at our office at 760.322.2500.

Your local SEO marketing (aka Inbound Marketing) effort is attracting relevant visitors to your website.
You know your sales funnel, and most importantly for your website conversion efforts, what step 1 of the sales funnel is.
You've created a call to action that is clear and obvious.
Did you also make your call to action easy to do?
This post is part of a short series on local SEO marketing website conversion. For access to every article in the series, click the link in the preceding sentence.
Studies show, when your call to action requires more choices, fewer people do it. This is called the paradox of choice.
Generally, the call to action involves the web visitors filling out some form of a Contact Us form.
What does this mean to you?
Ask for the minimum amount of information you need for your website visitor to become a prospect. I recommend you keep it to four or five fields maximum:
- Name
- Phone number
- Email address
- How can we help you?
- City (if this is relevant to you)
And nothing more!!
Later when your website is generate so many leads you need a way to separate the wheat from the chaff, then (AND ONLY THEN) does it make sense to add more field to the Contact Us form.
An example of this type of question might be:
- Available budget
This filters out people who are unwilling to provide this detail.SEO Needs Link Building

Thanks to payday loans, we can fulfill our dreams when we do not have enough savings. They are also helpful in unforeseen situations when we simply need additional resources. Usually we take one payday loan then, but the record holders have even several or several dozen!
Both banks and non-banking payday loan companies have their own special policy for granting payday loans. Some of them give even several payday loans simultaneously to the same person, while others limit the offer to only one active payday loan per client. Therefore, the answer to the question – can I have several payday loans, is yes, but with some reservations. Below we present them more precisely.
Creditworthiness analysis
If we want to take a cash payday loan at the bank, in such a case these institutions mainly analyze our financial condition and determine the creditworthiness on the basis of it. It consists of our income and expenses. If we earn a lot and we have few burdens, we can count on larger sums. When we earn a little or a lot, but at the same time we have a lot of burden, our creditworthiness will be lower.
When granting payday loans, banks and renowned payday loan companies check the creditworthiness of the customer each time. So if we want to take a second payday loan during the course of one, the lender can take this actively into account when calculating our ability. As a consequence, it will be lower. When we do not earn much, another payday loan may be even smaller or we may not get it at all. If, in turn, our financial condition is good, the bank may offer us payday loans until we lose the creditworthiness needed for the next one. The number of payday loans is also regulated by law.
It is worth noting that this situation applies to all banks and payday loan companies, that is why, even if we take payday loans in several institutions, our creditworthiness will be the same because lenders use the same databases.
Payday loan companies control the number of payday loans
Most payday loan companies allow their clients to have only one active payday loan. This does not mean, however, that we can not take another payday loan at another non-bank company. Then we can take out a few payday loans at the same time, when our financial needs are greater.
At Gandalf, we face the needs of borrowers. With us, the client can apply for another payday loan before the current payday loan is repaid. The only condition is the repayment of at least half of the installments of the current payday loan. When you need extra cash and meet the requirements, you can get additional financial support at Gandalf.
Of course, we must also calculate well whether we will be able to afford such indebtedness. There is a danger that such a large number of payday loans will not be a favorable choice – in this case, we may fall into a spiral of debt. Therefore, it is best to have only one active payday loan and only after paying it out, think about taking another one when you need extra cash.

Colorado State will begin a brand new college football season this weekend at home against Mountain West Conference opponent Hawaii, but it remains to be seen if head coach Mike Bobo will be on the sidelines to coach the Rams. Bobo remains in a hospital after checking in for medical evaluations last week.
An update from Colorado State Athletics Director Joe Parker on Monday confirmed Bobo has moved to a new hospital in Denver and continues to be evaluated to determine why he might have felt numbness in his feet recently. Parker said it is possible Bobo could be released from the hospital any day, but the Rams coaching staff will continue preparing the team for this weekend's game as if Bobo will not be available just in case.
With that being the case, there is some uncertainty over how the staff would run the team with responsibilities like calling plays. That appears to be a detail the staff will worry about later in the week in the event it is determined such a need arises. In the meantime, Bobo has been able to stay in touch with the staff and review film to keep sticking to his job as head coach, but nobody at Colorado State is going to push Bobo to get back as soon as possible if there are concerns about his health still to deal with.
Colorado State faces Hawaii in the season opener on Saturday, August 25.

text: MOVIES 'The Night Before' Premiere: Seth Rogen Says He May "Rewatch" 'The Interview' 2:16 AM PST 11/19/2015 by Brian Porreca FACEBOOK TWITTER EMAIL ME Courtesy of AP Images He and Joseph Gordon-Levitt tell THR about the serious and ridiculous moments they can relate to from their new movie. "It really walks that balance between being ridiculous and entertaining and also being about human beings that you can care about," Joseph Gordon-Levitt told The Hollywood Reporter at The Night Before's Los Angeles premiere Wednesday night. The actor described the film as he joined Tom Rothman and James Franco on the red carpet for a powwow. A crowd of screaming fans decked out in ugly Christmas and Hanukkah sweaters demanded selfies with the stars as both laughter and tears overtook the audience at The Theatre at Ace Hotel in downtown L.A. The film stars Gordon-Levitt as a 33-year-old trying to hold onto the Christmas tradition he has with his two best friends, played by Seth Rogen and Anthony Mackie. "My character is suffering through a loss, and that is something that I've been through in my life," Gordon-Levitt told THR. "I always said to Seth and Jon Levine when they first started talking to me about this project, I was like, 'We should do this movie. It's going to be great. It should be funny, but if we're going to do a Christmas movie, it's got to have a heart to it, and they totally agreed. I think Levine really pulled it off." How did director Levine handle the ensemble cast that included Tracy Morgan, Lizzy Caplan, Mindy Kaling, Jillian Bell, Lorraine Toussaint, Michael Shannon and Miley Cyrus? "I sort of treated it like being the host at a party, and you want to sit people next to each other who will get along well, and you want everyone to have a good time and feel loose, but you also need to get through the meal," Levine told THR. The Miley Cyrus cameo, in which she belts out her hit song "Wrecking Ball" with Gordon-Levitt, came after the film was underway. "We knew we wanted an artist to play at this big party, and we had heard she really liked Seth and the guys. We asked her to do it. We wrote all that stuff into the script," Levine told THR. It wasn't just Cyrus' admiration of Rogen that got her the gig though; it may have been Levine's admiration for the former Disney star, who tells Gordon-Levitt's character to call her "Hannah" in the movie. Said Levine: "I loved that Bangerz album, and I love her new album, and directing her was really easy. She's a child star; she knows what she's doing. Directing her and Joe in scenes, they were both like, 'Yeah, we got it. We grew up doing this.' " With holiday cheer and a celebration of the comedy in the air at the premiere, is there something else to celebrate? Will Rogen be doing anything for The Interview's first anniversary? He may be spending it with Franco, Rogen told THR: "We actually start shooting a movie [The Disaster Artist] that [Franco's] directing in two weeks, so we'll probably be filming. We'll rewatch it maybe." As Gordon-Levitt related to some of the serious elements of the film, Rogen had completely different flashbacks. "The idea that there's our high school weed dealer, that is very much inspired from my real life because sometimes I do go back home to Vancouver, especially ... not so much anymore, but after I had left for a few years, there is that thing where you're like, 'Who do you buy weed off of?' " the actor joked to THR. He added: "And now that I'm not in high school anymore, I would have to keep in touch with our high school weed dealers, and there was a story where one time we got snowed out over the Christmas break, and we had to go meet our weed dealer in the snow storm in the middle of our high school football field." Will Rogen reunite with Gordon-Levitt, Mackie or anyone else from the film again? Joked Caplan: "We did the North Korea movie and now a Christmas movie, so I guess some kind of ballet-dancer movie would be a natural third in the trilogy." The film premiere was followed by a private afterparty hosted by Rogen. Other guests of the night included James Marsden, LL Cool J, Tia Mowry-Hardrict and Cory Hardrict.

Arsenal and Manchester United are set to go head-to-head over the signing of free agent Victor Valdes, according to the Mirror
The goalkeeper decided to quit the Catalan club, after spending his entire career at Camp Nou. He graduated to the first team in 2002 and spent 12 glorious troph-laden years as the club's number one keeper.
Valdes has won every trophy that can be won at club level with Barcelona. The stopper is now looking for a new challenge and there are no shortage of suitors for the Spanish international.
The 32-year-old goalkeeper is just recovering from a knee injury which he suffered during the latter stages of the previous La Liga campaign. The injury meant he missed playing in the World Cup in Brazil.
Valdes was rumoured to be joining Ligue 1 club AS Monaco. However, it looks like that move has fallen through, as he could not pass the medical. However, Valdes' agent claimed that this transfer will still go ahead.
Arsene Wenger is in the market for a quality goalkeeper who can challenge Arsenal's current number one Wojciech Szczesny, and feels Valdes will be perfectly suited to do that. He has experience at the highest level of football and can guide the young Pole and make him a better keeper.
The Gunners boss it is claimed has invited the Spanish keeper over for talks with a view to a transfer to the Emirates.
However, the north London Club will face stiff competition from rivals United for the signature of the World Cup winning keeper, as Louis van Gaal is keen on bringing Valdes to Old Trafford to push David de Gea, as he feels the young keeper lacks competition for the number one jersey.
The Red Devils could have an advantage in the pursuit of Valdes as he made his debut for Barcelona under Louis van Gaal. The Camp Nou hero wrote an emotional letter when he decided to leave Barcelona and the United manager was one of the first people he thanked.
The Spanish international will be an asset to whichever club he joins, and at 32 years old, he could play at the top level for a number of years.

29 Jan The Dissolving Deposit
Why 5.6% is the magic number to remember.
The challenge for many homebuyers is understanding all the costs associated with purchasing a new home. The purchase price of the property is the most obvious cost however it's important to understand the additional costs and how they affect your overall deposit.
Time and time again we see clients who are disheartened by having a portion of their deposit dissolve in fees. These fees cannot be funded by a lender so they have a direct impact to the deposit that you have been saving.
To avoid any surprises, its important understand the how the fees on your prospective purchase will impact your deposit amount. Each property purchase, lender and state is different so it's good to find out which fees apply to your situation.
Typically – the additional costs in the transaction are;
Transfer fees, stamp duty and other government fees
Building and Pest Inspections
Property Valuation
Lenders mortgage insurance
Home/Building Insurance
As a general rule, we allow for approximately 5.6% of the purchase price to represent the fees that would be charge on that purchase. So a $500,000 property with an allowance of 5.6% make a truer purchase price of $528,000.
Whilst this figure can vary slightly, depending on your circumstances it's an easy figures to apply to prospective properties you are looking at purchasing. Keep in mind, this does not take any grants or potential discounts into account.
At the end of the day, having pre-approval in place or at the very least a good conversation with the right person allows you to thoroughly explore loans options and be well informed about the fees and understand exactly how they apply to you. This will ensure you are ready when it comes to the crunch and don't feel the shock of unexpected costs.

There are different ways of naming seasons, people, trees. Seasons in India are Summer, Monsoon and Winter. People are described by their heights, their likes and dislikes. Some are coffee folks, and others are tea folks. Some are beer guys or wine folks. Some love whiskey and others like their Vodka or Rum! Some are morning types, and others are night owls! Trees are classified as coniferous, perennial, shady and so on. My favourite method of differentiation of people is based on the seasons they like.
Seasons based on Calendar are winter, spring, summer and autumn; in tropical areas, the seasons are only two, wet and dry seasons. But in India seasons are Summer, Monsoon and Winter. Monsoon season is very different in India. When did I really start understanding seasons? I was in school maybe 5th grade, and one day I needed an umbrella to go to school as I had exams on that day. Hence I needed to go to school. This thing had never happened before, so when it rained, I simply used to skip school if it rained heavily.
Names of seasons are also used to describe somethings in our life. Winter of discontent, there is a spring in his stride, are some of the terms come to mind. Summer of discontent is another term, that is used. What do these indicate? Winter of discontent indicates that bad days or times are at an end and they change for better, in the form as spring is coming soon! Summer of discontent is the term used when unhappiness or sadness of life is at the peak! Spring in stride indicates the fresh air or exuberance. The reappearance of robins. The disappearing snow. The longer hours of daylight. The emergence of flowers.
I started thinking in terms of Indian seasons, am I a summer guy or a monsoon guy or a winter guy. In India, the weather conditions are different in various parts, simply because of the hugeness of the country. In summer, we have temperatures nearing 50 deg C in certain areas to minus 10 deg C in cooler climates in winter. Monsoons can bring rains to the tune of 1200 cm in a season. Weather in the country can be moderate to extreme like human beings. Pune, where I normally live, is known for moderate weather, all the seasons are comfortable. Has that made people in Pune reasonable people? Does extremism or moderation in people happen because of the weather? I think it does. I am talking of general populace and not the wrong kind of people! The wrong kind of people is omnipresent where ever they want to be, irrespective of seasons or weather.
Summer, for me, is lovely Alphonso Mangoes, Sugarcane Juice, Raw Mango Panna a kind of home-made sherbet! In childhood, it also meant school holidays, round the day playing cricket, table tennis and badminton! I used to live in Mumbai in those days. Once in a while, there used to be a trip to relatives' homes in Bombay or sometimes to Pune. That was the farthest we would travel in those days; there were no summer holiday trips to cooler climes. Those were outside means of our family. And did I enjoy my trip to Pune by train? Eating Batata Wada (a potato patty) at Karjat! That used to be the high point of the journey! End of summer also meant excursion to markets with mom to get new school uniforms especially when I outgrew the older uniforms! Then, of course, there would be a trip to the stationery shop to buy new notebooks. Followed by a session of covering the notebooks with brown paper, followed by sticking the labels for the names! Of course, there used to an occasional day of punishment when we overdid things! There used to be pinching of small coins from home to drink ice cold lemon sherbet on the cricket ground. But now in golden phase life, things have remained more or less the same but with one big difference. Diabetes makes things a little bit tricky for Mangoes and Sugar cane juice!
Monsoon in Mumbai and Pune are totally different. Most of the monsoon, one could manage without an umbrella in Pune! In Mumbai, many times, it hardly mattered whether you wore a raincoat or had an umbrella; you would get drenched. Weather in Pune in Monsoon would bring a bit of chill, but in Mumbai, you were not sure whether you got drenched in rain or sweat! In Mumbai, going to Marine drive to walk on the sea wall, with heavy rains lashing and sea waves crashing on the wall! Oh, what fun we had! Mumbai's rain fury is seen to be believed! As the British say, it rains Dogs and Cats in Mumbai, sometimes. Though it is a bit difficult to handle, it should be enjoyed at least once. It should be added to your bucket list. One day, I had pinched some coins from home, and it was raining heavily. Heavy rains could sometimes create havoc in Mumbai. This was great opportunity to come home, from school, ( we used to lie about lack of buses) walking in heavy rains and on the way, going to our favourite restaurant to eat a Dosa! That was the biggest heist in our lives!
Winter, of course, is a special season for Pune. Cool breeze, some mist, some fog, everybody going around in their woollens with seniors using mufflers and woollen caps! Drinking hot tea with Salty biscuits at the roadside kiosk was equivalent of reaching the heavens! In my younger days, Pune would almost shut down around 7 pm, like it happens in cold climates. I remember that my grandfather used to go to sleep at 7 pm! Going up the hills in winter was another of past time in Pune. In all my stay in Mumbai, I was required to wear a sweater maybe a few times but in Pune, for 2 ½ months sweater was a must!
Which is my favourite season? Cool climates are what I love the most, but then monsoon chill in Pune is also great fun and as the temperature doesn't go down like in winter. Recently in Switzerland, we were caught in Bern, with reasonably cold weather accompanied by a light drizzle. We were geared for both rain and cold but found it very difficult to handle it! That is when I realised that I love the dry cold and not wet cold! I love winters in Delhi too, but these days pollution has made things tough to enjoy. So finally, I am a winter guy, in hot countries!
Folks, there is one season that we forgot! Its season of love! Well, romantic love is what I am talking about. This is one season that never goes away, its beauty never feds! It has its own low tides and high tides! All the things mentioned above, get turbocharged when you are in the love season! Seasons of nature and season of love merge. The season of love never changes into next season, but has its ups and downs! This has its highs and lows! But how many of us are lucky enough to have the season of love in life, throughout life? Season of love in life is a great elixir and is supported by small doses of nectar provided by the natural seasons! Let's get a bit philosophical. Do you have five seasons in your life?
I will share with you a lovely Hindi film song. It talks of natural seasons and the season of Love! Enjoy!

File Under || Holiday EditionDecember 22, 2016
Christmas is almost here! What a wonderful time of year. I love that when I walk into our library the fire is burning and that we have twinkly lights all around. Little A's excitement about the season fills me with such joy and happiness. The anticipation is such an important part. We have been enjoying our tree all month long and little by little have been adding presents around it. We have also been been cleaning and organizing our home to start the New Year off with a BANG! I have been backing up old files and installing a new computer, so this is the reason for my silence lately. Currently, I'm planning the menu and table for Christmas Eve....and boy do I have a dessert I'm dying to try (and will share below with you!). I think you will enjoy these tips and finds-
FILE UNDER- DIVINE DESSERTS. I really enjoy a good dessert and for Christmas Eve I always try and make something very special. Last year I made a Devil's Food Cake with Meringue Icing from Lela Rose's Pret-A-Party book which was sensational. We all loved it so much and I even included well wishes messages inside attached to a string for everyone to pull. And this year I'm dying to try this chocolate ganache cake by Rose and Ivy Journal that looks like the perfect sweet end for a celebratory dinner- rich and comforting.
FILE UNDER- TABLESCAPE. There is nothing that I love more than something that is both beautiful and practical. Enter this floral centerpiece with both 'faux' and real flowers made by the fabulous local florists Apples to Zinnias. I gathered inspiration from my friend's arrangement and had this one made with one of my all-time favorite flowers, magnolias. The magnolias and hydrangeas are 'faux' (of amazing quality of course! all my friends thought they were real) and look stunning by themselves- a perfect arrangement for year round. Then, added tubes that hold water in between so I can add real flowers and change the look according to the occasion and season! Brilliant! I added red roses for the perfect Holiday look.I'm sure your local florist can do something similar.
FILE UNDER- HOLIDAY TRAVEL. I adore spending Christmas at home, but this post on Christmas in Ireland at the Ashford Castle by You May Be Wandering has me thinking otherwise for next year. This special three day celebration is highly coveted and with only 48 rooms you better make your reservations now. Oh and in Ireland Christmas is all about the kids, so they are the ones that are truly pampered (Lego butler anyone?). To learn more read the post here.
Wishing you and your families a warm, joyous and magnificent Holiday. I'm truly grateful for all of you!! Best wishes and sweet kisses and hugs.

Until…. It struck me. My wristwatch! Where the hell is my wristwatch?!
I ran into the room, scattering everywhere in Search of it. Then I remembered, I wore it while going to that dick head house.
Shit! It must have fallen off during our struggle.
I began shivering, my thoughts escalating.
'What if the police found my wristwatch?'
They could trace it back to me. Gee, I fucked up big time.
– – – – – – – – – – – – – – – – – –
Read: The diary of a virgin boy 8.0
– – – – – – –
I paced around for a while, brainstorming as to what actions to take. There was no other option, I couldn't let the police take me to court.
I hurriedly grabbed my travelling bag and began assembling my stuffs inside. I had to flee before she arrived.
I couldn't risk her telling the cops I murdered him. I took my diary from beneath the bed and shoved it in the bag, held it up to shoulders and walked out of the room.
As I opened the door, I found her out front.
"Fuck!" I yelled.
"You scared the crap out of me," I added
"So it was you?" she whimpered.
"Baby I swear I didn't mean to, it was a mistake," I reached for her.
She shoved my hands away. Walking into the living room slowly.
"But you caused it, How could you be sleeping with someone else behind my back?" I. Looked at in the face.
"Does that warrant you to kill him!" she smacked me.
I exhaled and moved closer to her.
"I'm sorry, I didn't mean to," I looked at her gorgeous eyes.
She had tears streaming down her cheeks. I held her face, and slowly pressed my lips against hers.
She pushed my back and brought a knife from her back. She swung it at me,
Slashing my face.
"Ah! I screamed.
"What the hell is wrong with you?"
She reached forward and swung the knife at me again, I moved backward hitting her left arm thus ripping the knife off her hands.
"Stay back I don't want to hurt you," I said.
"It's too late the cops are right outside," she responded.
Fuck! She came at me pushing me off my feet, she grabbed the knife and stabbed me.

Today is the 20th anniversary of the passing of Erdős and I would like to make two corrections. I had always thought the accent on Erdős' name was ö , html code ö but it is actually Hungarian, html code ő. The second is the coffee quote which I had attributed to him. I realised my mistake a number of years ago but never got a chance to correct it online. Both errors were perpetuated in this post from 2004. Here is a quote from Erdős' paper "Child Prodigies"
In Hungary, many mathematicians drink strong coffee, in fact Rényi once said "a mathematician is a machine which turns coffee into theorems."
Correction done but sadly I am still not quite sure how to pronounce his name correctly.

X Marks the Party Spot
Arriving at 5.35 pm miraculously makes me first in line to this epic event which was set to open to the public at 6 pm. Upon entering one of the biggest free parties I think Justin Hemmes has created I kept wondering is there no end to his generosity of free drinks and canapés to hundreds of people he's never met. Once the main bar filled reached it's capacity it was on for young and old in trying to grab some food from the trays which the friendly service were challenged in sharing around. Drinks were flowing freely including cocktails called Berry Blush and French Pash all made to match the red theme, balloons and lighting. Red glasses and party hats were given out upon entry for those wanting more red apparel. I managed to track down most of the canapés on offer which included some very tasty quiche style tarts and an interesting prawn and fennel dumpling. There's 2 days left of what's been a 10 day celebration of specials. Day 9 brings $10 Moet flutes at est. sushi e and Hemmesphere and the final Day 10 is the Big Birthday Finale at Tank for only $10 entry — I'm sure there'll be some serious partying to be had.

There's nothing quite like a beautiful wall mural. Salvador Dalí became one of my favorite artists when I began to appreciate the enormous scale of some of his paintings. While traveling, I love seeking out the unexpected murals that pop up in cities around the world – especially in Australia. A painted wall can stop me cold in my tracks while I crane my neck to take it all in. So when I heard the wall artist George Rose talking about her work on the Australian Design Podcast, I couldn't wait to check it out. I don't know how I ended up listening to the Australian Design Podcast. I'm not Australian, I'm not a designer. Maybe I would be those things if I could. Maybe I just really enjoy stories of people who are living their creative dream – who appear to be breaking all the rules, doing what they …Continue reading

Australia from Four Cameras — (4 of 4)
Moto RAZR (phone camera) The least technically capable camera I carried in Australia was the one built into my cell phone, the Moto Razr. And when I say 'least technically capable' about the imaging quality, what I mean is that it is pretty atrocious. The shutter is remarkably slow, the color calibration is bland, the orientation and ergonomics are awkward and unpleasant. That said, although it was less capable than my other 'real' cameras, in non-traditional ways, it was the most capable. With all its limitations I was able to do some interesting things. The panorama feature was slightly redeeming – I could wave the phone in a circle, and it would stitch together a wobbly but coherent frame. I could instantly share pictures by uploading to Instagram. I could take "selfies." Most importantly, I was able to use pictures as a surrogate notepad, for 'mentally bookmarking' things I needed to remember …Continue reading
Australia from Four Cameras — (3 of 4)
Olympus E-PL1 The E-PL1 is an amazing camera. What I love about it (aside from the image quality) is its inconspicuousness. When shooting street photography, or casual travel scenes, pointing a big DSLR neck-weight can easily tip off potential subjects that their image is being captured, and may intimidate them into feeling a need to 'perform' for such a large camera. The small body E-PL1 is a much friendlier camera to be in front of – it looks small and harmless, and leaves people to behave as naturally as they would if a camera weren't around. It uses the same 13 megapixel sensor that the much larger E-30 does, but in a compact "micro 4/3" body system. The Micro 4/3 line of cameras offer big quality in a small package, and with a lens converter, I can shoot with the same glass that I use in any other E-system camera. (So …Continue reading
Australia from Four Cameras — (2 of 4)
Olympus E-500 The E-500 was the first DSLR I ever used, and I've been shooting with it for nearly eight years. I learned how to operate manual controls with this camera, and built a muscle memory with it that I can't quite replicate with any other camera body. The E-500 doesn't have the live-view features or the 13MP sensor of the E-30, my other Olympus camera body, but I chose to travel with the 500 because it's smaller, lighter, and I am more familiar with its nuances. Comfort with a tool could be more important than features, bells, and whistles. Even with its older sensor and more limited features, it's very capable of producing gorgeous images. I've always been impressed with its color accuracy, especially shooting in .jpg with no post-processing. Rich blues and greens make it great for landscapes.Continue reading
Australia from Four Cameras – (1 of 4)
It's the biggest question I face when I get ready to take a trip – which cameras are coming along? For my trip to Australia, I ended up packing four cameras, four lenses, and 38GB of memory cards. Each camera served its own unique purpose, and I gave all of them almost equal use. Olympus FE-170 This camera was put to market in 2006, making it the oldest of my crew. I found it on eBay for under $100 back in 2007, so you could probably put 50 cents in a vending machine to get one today. It's a small 6 megapixel point and shoot, with 38-114mm (equivalent) zoom. By today's standards, it is very limited in image quality, but it has something none of my other cameras did – an element of "disposability." At 4.4 oz, and with only two buttons I needed to press, it is exactly what I …Continue reading
two Sundays in Sydney
Sunday, Sept. 22 Calexico, the American alt-rock band, performed at the Sydney Opera House. Like most tourists in the city for the first time, I might have been content to watch someone scrub the stage with a mop just to get a glimpse of the inside of one of the world's most fascinating structures. Thankfully, Calexico, a band I enjoy very much, brought their drums and guitars and saved the janitorial staff from the task of entertaining me. Last year, I was introduced to Calexico's funky blend of rock and traditional Mexican folk music by their performance on the Austin City Limits TV series. At the Opera House, they sounded great, and were enhanced by the building's superior acoustical design. What surprised me, from my seat in the furthest row back from the stage, was how sedated the crowd was. When I've seen videos of Calexico performing elsewhere, it's clear …Continue reading
on Walking the World
You can tell a lot about a city by its crosswalks. In Sydney, the 'Art and About' program installed large banners throughout the city illustrating the slight variations in 'crosswalk people' around the globe. The little blinking green man who helps you avoid becoming a traffic accident isn't the first thing that comes to mind when considering 'what piece of public art defines where I live?' But… 'God is in the details.' A few examples: In Warsaw, Poland – the Crossing Man is shattered, wrecked, in pieces. What brought him to such a state of discombobulation? How does he even walk like that? Not only are his limbs disassociated, but his head is monstrously large. It's as if Warsaw Man lived through WWII and hasn't finished rebuilding. Perhaps the city is still figuring out how to become whole again. In Chicago, USA – the Crossing Man is orange, hunched, an arm …Continue reading
Weather Review ★★★★ Bondi Beach, NSW
Short waves of glass clear sea sing a calm morning chorus. In the distance the horizon has the blue of toothpaste and candy. A warm breeze carries chatter in Italian, French, and English. Yoga women stretch on rocks, leaning a few extra inches closer to the sun. The open sky looks like a place clouds would feel ashamed to float.Continue reading
Trip Note 1, IAD – SYD
I already feel opened up to 'deep travel' in the sense that aggravating situations are transformed into experiences of something different. Instead of being angry that I was next to a screaming toddler on the last flight, it was more of an opportunity to observe, "oh, this is what a screaming toddler looks like up close. I don't see that often. Cool." Travel takes situations that everyday would be nuisances and makes them vibrate with a less hazardous nature. Because it can be expensive, and because its away from the regular responsibilities of daily life, and because not everyone is fortunate enough to have the means to do it, I suppose a traveler might feel some guilt when preparing for a trip, since they are so lucky to undertake it. But really, the object of travel is to be humbled by the place you're going, to be reminded that your …Continue reading

Sorry for the break! Went on a small vacation to my cousin's house for the weekend, and they have horrible internet connection, so I was held hostage from my baby-naming groupies. But, never fear: I'M BACK! Or maybe that's all the more reason to be fearful.
First off, I'd like to introduce my latest blogging idea: Every time I post, I'll start it off by listing the recent births in my area. If I truly dislike the name, I'll list what I think the name should have been in parentheses.

• Carolynn Mariah (Caroline Maria)
• Gabrielle Jaime Lyn
• Jayla Amaire Jazmin (Jane Amaya Jasmine)
• Kaitlyn Elizabeth (Caitlin Elizabeth)
• Madelynn Louise (Madeleine Louise)
• Teegan Marie (Tallulah Maria)
Lil Men:
• Elijah David
• Elijah Richard
• Seth Clifford
• Trevor Daniel

What's $40 million and a tree lawyer when you're a billionaire? And one of the world's richest billionaires on top of that.
Larry Ellison will reportedly purchase the San Francisco home of late socialite Dodie Rosekrans, who also happens to be the neighbor of the Oracle CEO, for $40 million, according to Curbed SF.
The 22-room house at 2840 Broadway will give the billionaire a clear view of the bay ahead of his
coveted America's Cup in 2013.
The view is something Ellison currently does not have in his neighboring home. Curbed SF reports that the tech mogul has had a long-standing debate with his downhill neighbor over view-blocking trees.
Ellison has been trying to get his neighbors to trim 80-year-old acacia and redwood trees to clear his view to the bay. A view he said he had 20 years ago when he first purchased the home.
But up until recently the neighbors had reportedly not wanted to comply. Ellison reportedly tried to purchase the property at least twice but the owners did not want to sell.
The situation has since been settled but not before Ellison's "tree lawyer" spoke with the Wall Street Journal about his client's position.
For an aerial view of the homes and a graphic explainer of the dispute, visit Curbed SF.

It's 1.30pm on a Saturday, I've barely been awake for an hour, and while I should be scoffing scrambled eggs and coffee to deal with my hangover I find myself at Ragu Pasta and Wine Bar in Westfield instead.
It's been a while since I've had red wine for breakfast but I have to say – it works pretty well.
I'm here because a Kiwi friend of mine is in town for the day and refuses to drink coffee.
"Drinkin's thinkin'" he brusquely said when I suggested a bean-based brew. Although I didn't know what the Kiwi's brusque and cryptic saying meant, I started thinking of possible alcoholic breakfast options and concluded a glass of red and some house-made pasta at Ragu should ease me and my alcoholic friend into the day.
Even though Ragu is located in a Sydney food court it somehow feels like an authentic Italian wine bar. As soon as I'm perched on a zebra-striped stool at Ragu's curved bar counter, an array of wine bottles facing me, I forget about the shoppers just metres away. The sounds of Italian being spoken by the staff and the Italian man hunkered over his pasta next to me add to to the feel of authenticity.
Tempted by the displays of fresh home-made pasta, I order the orecchiette with ragu. Orecchiette pasta originates from South Italy and is named after the Italian word for ear, since that's the shape the pasta is roughly in. The orecchiette here is (to shamelessly use MasterChef parlance – I really watched that show far too much) the hero of the dish: it has bite and texture and goes beautifully with the small pieces of tender beef and rustic tomato-based sauce. In short, it's hearty, honest and simple Italian fare – and good value for $15.
I wash it down with a glass of A.Retief shiraz, which is also great value for $9. This is the first time I ever tried a wine from NSW's A.Retief but I'm going to look out for it from now on – my shiraz is well balanced and, to yet again shamelessly use MasterChef parlance (I promise this is the last time), it has bags of flavour. Actually, that MasterChef saying doesn't make sense, really – what is a bag of flavour?
But I digress.
The Kiwi keeps sneaking jealous peeks at my pasta and grumbles that he shouldn't have eaten before meeting me. I shield my pasta with my arms and hunker down like the paisan next to me, but I'm also grateful to the Kiwi for forcing me to avoid my coffee today. All of a sudden his cryptic message makes sense: drinkin is thinkin.
Ragu Pasta & Wine Bar at Westfield Sydney. Level 5, in the newly opened part of the food court, Pitt Street Mall. Open until 7.30pm every day except Thursdays, when it's open until 9.30pm.

A Disquietude of Objects by Lin Chau and Norman Sutton-Hibbert
studio 41, Glasgow
12-16 April 2013
Curated by Magdalen Chua
Objects speak, unsettle and move. Creations that in turn, become recreated by the tales we spin around them. A Disquietude of Objects presents new work by Lin Chau and Norman Sutton-Hibbert that centre on the potential for objects – through their colour, material and form – to evoke personal and unexpected narratives. Developed amidst an ongoing questioning of the categories of painting and sculpture, the works are an outcome of the artists' exploration of the histories and boundaries of both disciplines.

Enchanted Bog Walk
Walking through an enchanting bog a few weeks back, I came across a large colony of Sarracenia purpurea, commonly known as pitcher plant. In the winter the leaves turn a beautiful reddish color and provide sharp contrast when in snow.
The really cool thing about pitcher plants is that they are carnivorous. Check out the video above. Insects get stuck in the plant tube, often drowning in the water that collects in the bottom. The unlucky creatures are prevented from escape by the fine, downward-facing hairs on the interior of the tube. Digestive enzymes made by the plant and aided by bacteria turn the insect into plant food.

So news has broken that Stieg Larsson, famed Swedish author of The Girl with the Dragon Tattoo, The Girl Who Played with Fire, and The Girl Who Kicked the Hornet's Nest—a trilogy that's sold more than 30 million copies worldwide and continues to sell over 50,000 copies daily in the States—was working on a fourth novel when he died.
This is huge news, if it's indeed true, considering the rampant popularity of the series, and I imagine it's probably causing publishers stress. Word is that Eva Gabrielsson, Larsson's longtime partner who helped write the novels, isn't talking about the series or the whereabouts of the fourth installment, and only she and one friend know about the unfinished story, which reportedly takes place in northern Canada. With the third installment having come out in May, it would be best to see the fourth release in the not too distant future, of course, but there are no signs thus far that anyone is working on that.
Apparently, Larsson was 320 pages into the fourth installment, with plans to go to about 440 pages. The beginning and end were done, but the middle needs to be fleshed out. For me, there's something about someone else working on the book that makes it less attractive. Sure, it's been done tons of times before, but I tend not to read estate-written novels. There's a loss of authenticity, no matter how closely an author manages to capture the original author's voice. Just knowing that Larsson didn't write the entire thing will probably prevent me from reading the fourth book. Admittedly, I still have to read the first three, but I have them, and will get to them as soon as I can.
The issue in this instance is Swedish law: since partners can't inherit from each other unless they're married or it's stipulated in a will, everything goes to the next of kin. According to a Swedish friend of mine, many Swedish couples don't marry, and Larsson and Gabrielsson were no different. Thus, Gabrielsson, who worked closely with Larsson on the Millennium books, is fighting over rights with Larsson's family. Until she is granted some sort of privilege, I imagine she will stick to her refusal to release the fourth novel, which she currently says she does not have, in spite of earlier admitting she possessed the laptop with the novel on it.
What do you think of all this? If a fourth installment is finally released, will you read it? How important is it to you that it be written by the original author? Is it totally important, or does it make a difference to you that the majority of the novel is reportedly finished?

Black Lives Matter. The fact that it needs to be said shows how very far we still have to go as a country. We hear you and we are with you.
At every festival, there's a day where you say, you know what, I'm going to take it easy. Saturday was that day for me. Most of the bands I wanted to see were at the end of the day, and besides, it was extra humid – the kind of day where you don't think it's too bad, because it's pretty overcast, but before you know it, you're covered in sweat. (It was also the kind of day where you don't think you're going to get a sunburn – overcast, remember? – until you get back to your hotel and realize you're much more lobster-like than you were that morning.)
So for the most part, I kept Saturday nice and easy. Things started out with a set from Hurray for the Riff Raff. Their latest album, Small Town Heroes, was a regular play on CHIRP when it was released, and most of their set was made up of tracks from that release. Frontwoman Alynda Lee Segarra kept the mood light and easy with her upbeat folk songs, but they're not a band that's afraid to get political or challenge the status quo. While they didn't play it, they have an unreleased song called "Everybody Knows", written for Trayvon Martin, that's absolutely chilling. Segarra also pokes at the folk tradition of murder ballads, which are almost universally about a woman being murdered. Segarra spins that into a song that's almost, but not quite, going into revenge territory. "Delia's gone, but I'm settling the score," she sings, quiet and delicate, and you get the feeling that whoever did Delia wrong is going to regret it pretty soon.

So my laptop specs are
Nvidia GeForce 650m
(Integrated Intel 4000HD)
8GB of DDR3 Ram
Intel Core i7
So when I play Minecraft w/ out recording I get about 100 fps but when I record I get like 20.
Is it set to record with my Intel Integrated?
I want to record in HD.
But when I record Crysis 3 on High Settings without rectangle recorder I get 40fps.
When I use rectangle I get 15fps.
Is it just a problem with the rectangle recorder?
