The mystery of the Nintendo Puzzle completed whilst we slept
Paranormal Experiences
Submitted by :Sam
My Story: This strange little incident happened to my nine year old son a few weeks ago.
for my sons ninth birthday we bought him a nintendo dsi.hed already had a nintendo ds and wanted to upgrade as hes very good at taking photographs.when the new professor layton and the diabolical box was released we downloaded it on to his ace card.he loves these kind of mystery games but can get very frustrated when doing the puzzles that appear through the chapters some of them are quite difficult.it makes it harder for him as he is autistic and has dyspraxia and puzzles are one of the things he finds difficult to work out in his head.one friday night hed spent ages trying to do a puzzle and was really frustrated because he could'nt do it and did'nt want me to help.he was'nt very happy when i told him it was lights out.anyway early the next morning he woke me up and asked me if i'd been in his room in the night and done his puzzle for him.i said no of course not and why.he told me that when he woke up he looked at his nintendo and the puzzle had been completed.i asked him if he had done it and forgotten he said no way.there is only three of us in the house my son,my six year old daughter and myself and none of us had done the puzzle.
Updated: December 2, 2009 — 11:07 pm
I've looked this up on various blogs, review sites and Nintendo based site and although there are some reported glitchs with some of the stages or levels, so far I've not been able to find anything similer to what you've mentioned. Was the DSi connected to a mains (power socket) and powered on the whole night?
the dsi was'nt connected to the mains,it was powered on,and was closed.it was on my sons desk which is the opposite side to his bed.this is not the first time we've had incidents with my sons toys,but the only time its happened with the nintendo.

Hi Sam:-)
I certainly believe this happened exactly as you share it, we both seem to have odd stuffgoing on electrically, which I do believe has to do with our paranormal connections. I've said before, you're a natural medium like me, the more you share, the more I am convinced you are, and just by being in the vicinity, you allow the paranormal access to all kinds of odd behaviour.
I told you in an email recently I'd had some more weird stuff like this and would put it in the site, it can go in here.
A week or so ago, somewhere here or in the sister site, inside another response to something else that resonated, I mentioned how my phones and voice recorders, plus video recorder have minds of their own, recording stuff that wasn't, shouldn't, and by all the laws of average, couldn't possiblly happen.
I also mentioned how when I paid a medium from outsaide my town to come to read me (my first ever sitting with a medium, cos mediums can't read themselves, and I'm a medium) how she immediately picked up I am a medium, sensed the room was filled with souls and, how when I recorded the session, afterwards, EVP imprints over both our voices, as it's 'playing back' then stays there. Stuff that wasn't there the time before.
The night i shared that in the site, I decided to pull the tape and listen to it again while I was in bed. At the very start, three more words have come in EVP, words that were never there before, and I can't make these out at all, except the voice is male. This made me try an experiment, one I'd tried before with a digital voice recorder and which came out with no EVP at all, when I left it on as I slept and mentally invited anyone who wanted to, to speak. Nex tday, all I heard on it, was my dog and self, breathing, and occasional turning over oises as we slept. And my dog wandering out and the sound of her lapping water.
This time, I used the old style hand held tape recorder, the same one I used to tape my sitting. I took a new tape out of cellophane wrapper, and put new batteries in the machin. It is only a recorder, no radio, no fancy gizmos on it, just on/off, fw/rw, and record buttons. I switched off my bedise radio, the tv was off, only my bedside light was on. I put it on my bedside table and let it run as I read for a while and it should have picked me up turning pages, having a moments cough, and switching off the light and going down the bed, as well as my dog having a scratch as her paws scraped against the plastic sides of her bed. It didn't.
Instead, next morning, I found it had run out, rewound itself and stopped, with the red 'on' light still on. when I played it back I was amazed to find it had picked up radio stations, it made really loud 'whipping' noises like a lash being whipped through the air, and every time it did, it went to another radio station, and it started off with lots of separate news clips, when I say clips, I mean, it flipped in and out of differnet presenters voices and cut them off and moved on to another, over and over for about the first five minutes.
Then, it cut in and out of church services, again, whip lash sounds as it flipped through stations, and different voices, male and female and a child at one point, and each was a different part of sermons, hymn siging, and the child was sorta separate. And it lasted about ten minutes, and then, a very loud clicking noise as if someone turned it off and the remainder of the tape was blank, and still, no bedroom noises, no sound of us both breathing, no fidgety movements etc, which I think was more unusual.
What I did clearly pick up through these clips of 'sermons' was the message that kept somehow interceding about 'the Lord of Hosts, returning' and how close that is. And this, is exactly what my psyche and my own visions and voices have already shown/told me… but no way, could I make what happened on that tape, with no media even on inside my home, imprint upon that tape. Still got it.
My brother thinks because they're magnetic, these old tape recorders, that the atmosphere must have had a sort of 'funnel' that allowed it to pick up on airwaves traversing through. But the interesting thing here, is that I'm on the ground floor in a block of flats where even mobiles have problems and often lose their signal!
JJ:-)
hi jeanie
i had not thought about it being connected to me before,it gives me something else to consider.i had seen it as being connected to my son,it only happens with his toys never my daughters.
i have also sent in my experience with the christmas lights that i emailed you about last week and that i have an effect on electrical items i have mentioned that when i email you i get problems and that we have had similar experiences,more than similar in some cases!
your story about the evp is really interesting i believe this is connected to what we have have spoken about already.i think you will hear the news again before it happens like you have previously mentioned and this will happen more frequently and become much clearer as that event draws closer.
Hi again Sam:-)
I've come to add to my story of the 'new' three words, that somehow appeared in EVP over the top of my recording of that reading I had with another medium. the stuff I said wasn't there last time I played it back.
Last night I decied to try and make out what the words are, and attached the hand held recorder to my speakers.
The place that it 'attached' is immediately after she (the medium) came in, and as she was walking across and around my living room, 'feeling the energy' and had just said "Of course… you know you're not alone in here don't you?" and immediatey after those words the new three words speak in a very deep baritone voice, like someone is leaning on their chin and speaking into a mike, but they are not distinct. she went on to say, "there are so many people here, but you know that don't you?" but before she does, this voice now intercedes and after playing it a few times, I had the tone and the rythm exactly, and then I switched it off, waited a few minutes, turned it on again, and it 'sounds like' the words are… "This old man!"
And interestingly, she then goes on to say there is a man here (who she puts at fifty-six) who "comes here often" seemingly, and oddly, it's someone I wasn't attached too, but who wishes I had been, and who comes back often, because he likes my company. Nothing she went on to tell me about this man resonated with anyone I'd known (I got all of them later) but, it did resonate with a guy I knew online who had just died a year before aged 56, and who she could not know about, and who I helped with other things related to his studies, and who was not a flirt in any way, indeed, he was happily married. But we'd shared our backgrounds and I'd told him about my ex and she related back to me, things only he could know across the couple of years I'd known him. what she never knew either, was that the night before he went to surgery, knowing I'm a medium, he broke his own rule (he was never on hotmail chat box at nights, only middays to contact fellow students on his course, and me, whom he met accidentally online, my fault, I somehow crossed over and barged into his chat box and scared him to death, because as I said, he was a shy man, not a stalker type and not a problem ever.
That night when I saw his name lit up, I knew something wasn't right, and I cheekily told him off and said he should be in bed with his lovely wife. That's when he said the second op' for heart valve replacements was on for the next day, he'd been waiting all the time I knew him, the old op' was no longer effective and he'd been forced to give up work, the course was to keep him occupied and take his mind off it.
He confessed he needed to speak with me, and instantly, I had a strong sense that he was about to die, but, I reassured him he would be ok… it's what you do… and we chatted until he was calm, and then he promised to email me as soon as he was home and in recovery. two days later, everybody in his email box recieved an email, his heading, his son's voice, sadly telling us he died on the operating table. He did, I checked his local paper obit's online.
I believe it's him the medium first picked up, and that his is the voice on the tape, that after six years now, has returned to let me know he's watching over me. We never spoke, only exchanged photos once, and he knew about my heartache over my Asperger son. I think i'm lucky in as much, as he's appointed himself to look after this old cyber mate.
The voices that were suddenly 'imposed' upon the tape toward the end, on the third time it played back, are differnt, and many, and white noise so loud, it sounds like a bubbling brooke… and not disimmilar in places to those 'whip lash' noises my recorder got when tuning in and out of radio stations recently. Like they're breaking through an atmosphere. One other deep voice, with words I can't make out to this day, is followed by loadsa clickings as if the mike is turned on and then, it's like a lot of people are talking at a party, and then, all the bubbles and if you've seen White Noise the movie, it's amazingly like that, then, another, softer voice says words I can't make out again. I will one day!
Then it clicks and clicks and clicks looudly and returns to the medium and me speaking, yet it wipes us out totally, when it speaks EVP. And I have never ever, attempted to do anything but put that tape on playback. It should not be able to pick up on playback, it does! Still, after three years, it's still doing it! Whenever I replay, another EVP is on it!
I haven't been able to check out where the radio stations came from, and no idea if any of it is happening, has happened already, or, was happening at the time, because it's so many short 'bites' all disjointed, and I'm not a technician. It's as if it wasn't actually affording information 'news wise' but merely showing me it could.
As for the church speak, I am a Crhistian who doesn't do church, nor churchy/bible speak, yet all the snatches of those 'sermons' that it caught, refer to the same message, 'The Lord of Hosts' return… now me, I'd just say God, not the Lord of Hosts! And the child speaks very clearly all about 'being alone inside the darkness'… and lots of it. I have no idea if he's reading it, as part of a service, or, if he's saying it, because it cuts back to the middle of a hymn.
I believe it's you who attracts these things to happen, maybe your son is abit that way, but you form the energy link, and if it troubles your son, you must do what I did years ago, make a deal, 'leave my children alone, don't scare them in ths way, let me raise them safely, then when they leave home, I will listen and communicate with you" and they will quieten down a lot, still be around, but not much bad or scar stuff will happen. Mostly stuff that only you will see, hear and understand. But be warned, when they do leave home, they will crash back with a vengeance and there'll be a queue a mile long!
I met two other mediums after my reading, both my age group, both like me, only to discover they too made this deal when their kids were young, and like me, they suddenly got flooded when they lived alone. One of them awoke to see an actual crowd inside her bedroom all around her bed, and nearly wet herself, she now travels europe, doing on stage readings to audiences. It also happened in this way to the one who read for me, she had only started a year earlier, in much the same way, after years of refusing to 'listen' till her children left.
We protect the children because they can be vulnerable to possession, and one of mine was, which is what made the front pages all those years ago. No one must ever, play with, entice, challenge or attempt to control the paranormal who has children in their home. You cannot control it. It will chew you up, play games, and spit you out!
Never, ever, hold a seance and use the board… especially with children in your home… just don't! That's what I said back then on that front page, in 1973… and nothing has ever changed my mind on that score!
Babies, children, puberty, stay away from the paranormal!
All are open and at risk.
We are not, we can say no and mean it, we can say yes and set the limits, and it has to listen… it seems to be written somewhere in the universal code, because I learned this then, was led to understanding, and it has proven to be true.
Jeanie:-)
no edit, too lazy
thankyou for this.its very interesting,ive never done anything to do with evp,might give it a go one night and see what happens.don't worry i would never do a seance again and definately would never touch a ouja board.
i get things with my mobile(sony ericsson walkman w580i)1 yr old now.such as messages disappearing before my eyes,people on the oter end even though its not rung and stuff appearing that isnt on my phone.my ring and msg tones also sometimes change by themselves.also like you it happens depending on my mood.the day with my lights i was stressed.
i hear things in my kitchen at night,sometimes you would swear theres a party going on in there but when i go in nothing.i also hear conversations going on and get loud noises like things falling or being moved but when i go and look theres nothing out of place.my cat eve also picks up on this she runs into the room leaps on my knee and sits staring at the door for ages,her little heart beating so fast i can feel it.this is also where i get touched the most or think thers someone behind me and when my daughter was about 2/3 she suddenly would not go in the kitchen by herself i would have to go with her,that lasted for ages but she could'nt tell me what it was that scared her.i also got something really strange happen once with the plastic lid of a milk bottle.it happened twice on the same night like it was confirmation that it was'nt just a fluke.i was making a drink and took the lid off both times i seemed to drop it now normally it would fall through the gap between the cooker and the cupboard but both times it seemed to hop over the gap and spun on its side round and round far longer than it should of done.the first time i thought it was odd but probably a fluke,then the next time i made a drink it did the same thing exactly i knew then it was'nt a fluke but it was really weird to watch.i also sense things being here the atmosphere suddenly becomes electric and i can feel it so strong,like its just waiting for something to happen!!!
In case a game provides just settled hugely it can not
imply that it won't eliminate shortly.

Michelle Hutchinson
Michelle, Ella, Colton, and Erik
Everyone has a story of course, but Michelle and Erik Hutchinson's is extra moving. Their tale reminds us that with challenge comes opportunity - and when you use your own adversity to help others, you can truly make an impact.
Both locals - Michelle graduated from Rhinebeck HS (1997, maiden name Tozzi), and Erik from Stissing Mountain Jr/Sr HS - the couple met as teens through mutual friends. Over a decade later, their friendship turned to romance.
Michelle shared, "full disclosure is that our love story is not traditional, but it suits us and we are proud of it. Erik and I had been friends for many years, involved in other long-term relationships for the duration of our friendship, but found ourselves single at the same time. I had not thought anything of it, but he had been texting me for a period of time, and now I believe he was laying the framework for something more. After 2 months of intermittent contact, I mentioned I was heading to Rhinebeck for the weekend (from Westchester County), so he asked if I would join him at a friend's birthday. Coincidentally, I was obligated to my sister's birthday that night, so I politely declined. Later that evening, I found him at the same place he knew I would be. He managed to rally his friends into going there, and his persistence paid off. After that, we started seeing each other every weekend. Things progressed naturally and quickly. With a foundation of friendship, we had a mutual respect and trust in one another from the very beginning."
Less than a year into the relationship, Michelle unexpectedly became pregnant with Ella, "a wonderful surprise," as she said. "Our family and friends shared in our joy; everything was as it was meant to be. There was no pressure to get married before her arrival, so we did not. She was born in September of 2011, and on the morning of my first Mother's Day (May 2012), Erik proposed to me with a ring in one hand and Ella in the other."
Michelle, a graduate of Pace and competitive soccer player, worked in the Pace Athletics Department for 10 years before the couple began their romance. Today, she works part-time for Crown LP Gas, the company Erik's grandfather launched (now run by Erik, who knew from the time he was 13 that he wanted to take over the business, and studied Heating, Air Conditioning, and Gas Technology at New England Tech to prepare). By 2013, Erik and his father purchased Dutchess Oil and Propane, now Crown Energy, and offer propane, fuel oil, diesel, and gasoline delivery/service.
The job they clearly love the most, of course, is raising their children: Ella, who turns 6 in September, and Colton, age 3.

The producers of Caprica had a fairly good idea from the start that their show would be a tough sell. The ending of their first season, which has turned out to be their last, proves they weren't really expecting to get a second season after all. Full of action and surprises, Caprica comes to an explosive conclusion, with an epilogue that will blow you away. The fans get far more closure than they might have expected, but this episode is hardly a showcase for the high calibre acting that has distinguished the series so far. At least one major character is unseen.
You didn't really expect Apotheosis to be as nice and shiny as Clarice told you, did you?
It All Comes Down to the Biggest Game of the Season
What follows is a recap and review of the Caprica finale, and therefore CONTAINS SPOILERS.
After things went so horribly wrong at the Graystone estate at the end of the last episode, Clarice and Olaf are on the run. They expect the Graystones are about to bring the full power of the Global Defense Department down on them. They are scared and yet beautifully silhouetted by the night skyline of the north shore of Caprica City. A dark figure approaches. He reveals himself as GDD Director Gara Singh, and their contact. They like him so much, they take him home.
He's filled in on the plan for blowing up Atlas Arena. He assures them that no matter what the Graystones do, he can derail them. After all, he has 4712 agents at his disposal. (Huh? If any fan out there knows the significance of that number, I'd like to know.) Mind you, he's also planning to be far off world by the time the big explosion happens in 14 hours.
Back at the Graystone house, corporate security are all over the place, but they haven't called the GDD. Not yet, Cyrus explains to Daniel, not until the lawyers arrive. "Which one did you call?" Daniel asks. "All of them."
Amanda is still in the Virtual House with Zoe. The avatar admits that Original Zoe deliberately left gaps in her memory, so she has no idea what is so special about the holoband of Clarice's everyone is looking for. Zoe feels useless. She is all powerful in the virtual world, but just a broken robot in the real world. Her mom comforts her, telling her that without her intervention, both she and Daniel would be dead. Then suddenly, Amanda's holoband is ripped off and she is back in the chaos of her real house. Gara Singh is there, and he's laying down the law. He calls the Graystones traitors and says he is going to charge them with high crimes. He demands the missing holoband, and is willing to plant evidence to make them look guilty. Cyrus takes matters into his own hands, pulling a gun and pointing it at Gara Singh's head. "I know how this ends!" he cries. He warns Daniel and Amanda to flee, for if they walk out with this man, they will disappear forever. After a tense standoff, Singh relents and the couple flees in a private jet. It is the last we see of Cyrus, but we can only imagine that Singh will make sure no one sees him again.
At the Adama family home, the family has gathered to mourn Willy. "He was a great kid." One short story, and everyone moves on. Two Ha'La'Tha' crew chiefs are there, offering their assistance. Fidelia arrives, with a guard. She claims the right to mourn, but she wants to offer the Guatrau's condolences. Sam doesn't take kindly to the sentiment. He shoves her head into a table and holds a gun to her. Joseph is more reasonable, and the two go off to another room for a more civilized conversation. "Are we looking at a war?" Maybe. Joseph doesn't really want to talk about his dead son, he would rather strategically point out that the death of his child was just one of a series of blunders the Guatrau has made. He wants a meeting.
In the private jet (which still looks a lot like a cross between Serenity and the troop carriers from Star Wars: Attack of the Clones), Daniel and Amanda are looking for a place to hide. They pass gigantic digital billboards branding them as terrorists in big red letters. Amanda chooses Orpheus Park, where Jordan Duram was shot. If Singh doesn't have the holoband, then perhaps it was just dropped. In pathetic disguises (a baseball cap, really?) the Graystones search the area where Duram tumbled down the hill. Sure enough, Daniel finds the holoband right away. He puts it on, and learns the whole plan. Since he knows the C-Bucs schedule by heart, he knows the bombs will go off in 8 hours.
Daniel, you look like an idiot
Caprica City must have benefited from the same influx of federal monies that gave Vancouver all those new closed circuit cameras in advance of the Olympics. Daniel and Amanda's pathetic hat disguises seem to hide them though, and Amanda does the noble thing and places an anonymous 911 call to the GDD to tell them about the bomb threat to Atlas Arena.
Fidelia and the Guatrau are at the Tauron clubhouse. She's trying to convince her father to meet with Joseph using holobands, avatars and V-World. He's not hip with the new technology, but he relents. His daughter knows what is best for him.
News of the anonymous bomb threat makes it back to Singh. He's not worried. So much so, he's not even leaving town.
The Guatrau carefully puts on the holoband and emerges in V-World where Joseph is waiting to drink tea with him. The old man thinks the situation is not natural, but Joseph echoes Fidelia's words to him, "It's for your safety." Joseph proceeds to tell the Guatrau about all the wrong decisions he has made. Suddenly the man starts to struggle against an unseen enemy. We dissolve into the real world, where Sam is holding a plastic bag over his head, strangling his breath away as everyone watches, including Fidelia. For his own safety, right. Joseph rips a hole in the bag, and as the Guatrau struggles to catch his breath, Joseph shoves one of his father's little red suicide pills down the man's throat. The end is not quick or painless. Fidelia gives her dead father a coin for his crossing, and says "You were going to die anyway, this way the family goes on." Sam removes the Guatrau's ring, hands it to Joseph. But Joseph puts it on Fidelia's finger, kneels and kisses her hand. She is the new Gautrau.
In the Willow house, Olaf and Clarice are impressed at how skillfully Singh has deflected the blame for the original mag-lev bombing onto the Graystones. But Clarice is still moody. She says "I envy you." Seems that she is ever so sorry she won't be joining Olaf in heaven after all. Her pathetic excuse is that Nestor never had time to scan her avatar. Olaf is furious and sees right through her. But he says God loves her anyway.
Back in the virtual house, Zoe is watching the news, seeing her parents vilified, and decides to do something. She leaves.
Amanda and Daniel's pathetic disguises are no longer working, as it is obvious a cabbie suspects them. He drops them off near Graystone Industries, where we meet a character we haven't seen since the beginning of the show. One of the young engineers who first worked on the U87, Daniel gives him instructions to sneak into the building and get him a key piece of gear he can use to control the U87s. We don't see him do it, but he comes out with a snazzy laptop. From there, the Graystones head over to Atlas Arena and buy souvenirs. Yeah, 'cuz they know this day will be going down in history! Really, it's to improve their disguises. Because Daniel in a blue hoodie is no more recognizeable than in a baseball cap. Right. He really has no idea how to fit in, does he? They go through the most lax security check ever, and the audience learns the bombs are indeed making it in to the arena with no problem. Once inside, they head for one of the TV camera booths. The guy inside recognizes Daniel, but doesn't believe him when he says they aren't terrorists. So, Daniel beats him up and he and his wife tie the guy up. Daniel hooks up his laptop just as the opening strains of the Caprican national anthem ring out.
Clarice puts in her holoband and travels to the virtual heaven to await Apotheosis. Zoe is waiting for her. Clarice is as deluded as Daniel, she things Zoe's arrival is a blessing.
As of now, there is just 3 minutes left until kickoff. Suddenly, we switch over to Star Wars: Attack of the Clones, and the Clone Troopers arrival on Geonosis to free Padme, Anakin and Obi Wan. Not really, but the big scene that follows is highly reminiscent of it. From above, the Graystone jets arrive, spiralling down to land on the pyramid pitch to the absolute disbelief of all assembled. At touchdown, the doors open and U87s pour out, some in full combat gear much more reminiscent of the old style Cylons we are used to seeing. Sadly though, the VFX crew didn't deliver to the high standard they have in the rest of the series. The sequence looks like it belonged in a video game. The astro-turf was particularly digitized. The Cylons look good though, and the guys have learned all the right military hand gestures. They form a perimeter around the landing craft, facing the crowd. Daniel is watching from the control booth above, giving instructions through his magic laptop. The robots scan the crowd, looking for explosives. They aim, target…and fire. Precisely, the Cylons exterminate the terrorists before each one can pull the trigger on their own bomb. Not a single shot goes wide, but the crowd panics anyway.
As each martyr beings showing up in heaven, Clarice is ecstatic. But Zoe has a dire warning for her. "If people believe they will go to heaven no matter what, they will lose control over themselves." The real world will become just like the cesspool New Cap City was.
In the control booth, Daniel is fighting off security while trying to get the Cylons to find the one remaining bomber, Olaf.
Zoe realizes "I know my purpose now." She clenches her fists, her Cylon-silver skirt swirls around her and Clarice's heaven begins to fall apart. It starts with a storm, but the destruction spreads quickly.
The Cylons close in on Olaf. Zoe pronounces, "I am God." And she turns Clarice's heaven into Hell, complete with fire and brimstone. Clarice flees just in time.
Olaf is cornered. As a bunch of U87s pounce on him, he shouts "So Say We All!" and pushes the button. His is the only bomb to ever go off, but the Cylon pile-up prevents significant damage.
From her computer lab in the attic of the house, Clarice sees him die, and knows there is no heaven for him to ascend to. Apotheosis has failed. Clarice drops her head in defeat as her computer room sparks around her.
And the story ends.
There is static. We see a Cylon on a construction site, then one loading a shipping container. Then, the words "The Shape of Things to Come" come across the screen. Baxter Sarno is interviewing Daniel, "Did you ever anticipate Cylons being integrated into society so quickly?" He replies, "I think it took the event at the arena to galvanize the people. Once they saw how much the monotheists hated us and how powerful they had become and then they saw the Cylons out there protecting us, it all changed in an instant." We see a Cylon walking a pack of dogs as Sarno goes on. "Let's talk about the future then, because I'm hearing talk about Cylon butlers, Cylon nurses. How long before my niece comes home with her Cylon fiance to introduce to the family?" We see a statue depicting the brave group of Cylon soldiers in the same formation they took at the Arena, firing into the crowd to save the many from the few. Daniel answers, "Well, I think people are smart enough to realize that, as useful as they are, Cylons are simply tools, nothing more. To forget that, to blur the distinction between man and machine, and attribute human qualities, is folly." But on screen, we are seeing his own wife gently running her hand over Zoe's arm in the virtual house, touching her as a mother would.
Daniel continues prophetically, "There is no way to know what lies ahead, really. This technology, it has taken us those last few steps to the mountain pass, but beyond is undiscovered country." Ah Daniel, clueless to the last.
The Real Future Commander Adama
We cut to Joseph Adama speaking, "Oh Jupiter, to you I pray on the anniversary of my son William's death." He is making an offering on an altar. He calls William a proud Tauron and a good boy. "Our father's name goes on in another way now." We see another small boy, this time with bright blue eyes. "Bill, you are named after your brother." The little boy completes the ritual before the whole family….Ruth, Sam & Larry, Joseph & Evelyn, and Bill.
And then we hear Clarice's voice. She is on a pulpit high over a congregation of Cylons. "Are you alive?" The very same words Six spoke at the beginning of the Battlestar Galactica miniseries. "The simple answer might be, 'you are alive because you can ask that question. You have the right to think and feel and yearn to be more because you are not just humanity's children, you are God's children. We are all God's children. I'm planning a trip to Gemenon to visit the Blessed Mother herself to plead for divine recognition of the differently sentient. And I have every confidence that I will depart Gemenon with a powerful new ally."
Odin is meeting with Clarice on Gemenon. "I've heard enough," he says. He takes her before the new Blessed Mother….Lacy. She says "Hello Clarice. I really think you should kneel."
Clarice continues, "In the real world, you have bodies made of metal and plastic. Your brains are encoded on wafers of silicon, but that may change. In fact, there is no limit on what you may become." We see Amanda at work on an advanced computer model in the Graystone lab. Clarice continues, "No longer servants, but equals. Not slaves or property, but living beings with the same rights as those who made you. I am going to prophecy now, and speak of one who will set you free." The camera passes over the Zoe!Avatar in the congregation. She smiles. "The day of reckoning is coming. The children of humanity shall rise."
In the lab, a real version of Zoe rises out of a familiar tub of goo, her skin forming to the skeleton even as she gasps for her first breath. But Clarice isn't done yet…"and crush the ones who first gave them life."
We see Daniel and Amanda comfort their daughter in her new skin job body, as the scene dissolves to the planet Caprica, as seen from space. It looks like a protective womb forming over this strange nuclear family.
Then the credits roll.
I've done more of a recap this time than a review, since I know people are eagerly waiting to hear what happened. My opinion on how it ended? Liked it, for the most part. This was a very effects-heavy episode, and except for some parts of the Atlas Arena sequence, the visual effects were stunning. Lacy's fate really pissed me off, but it was the only sour note. The murder of the Guatrau was inventive and well played. I felt it just that the Adamas didn't end up running the Tauron mob, even though they shaped it how they wanted it. As one 13th Colonist speculated, replacing the Willy we thought was ours with a new one felt a lot like showing us Earth at the mid point of Season 4 of BSG, and then pulling the rug out from under us before finally leading us home. That Zoe and her parents develop skin jobs, while Clarice inspires the rank and file Cylons to rebel was a complex solution to the motivation of the Cylons, but it couldn't have been easy. This explains why even their race developed so many factions.
I am sorry to see the last of terrific performances by these actors, but now I have learned to look out for what Sasha Roiz and Magda Apanowicz do next. Familiar names like Eric Stoltz, Paula Malcomson and Polly Walker have already moved on to new projects. Their performances in this "failed" TV show will serve them well.

The disposition of Lacy pissed you off? I quite liked it. She never seemed eager for power, and that's who should have power. They could have done quite a lot more with her character, given another season.
I thought that having Mark Donnelly sing the Caprican National Anthem was a great salute to Vancouver and Canada, I really appreciated it. (Mark Donnelly sings both "The Star Spangled Banner" and "Oh Canada" at Canucks games.)
Overall, I'm very glad we weren't served a cliff hanger that would never be answered and that they set up the Cylon motivation. When I think about it, that should have been the entire point of the show. I'm happy to have seen Caprica at all.
Thanks for blogging, Spacepug!

They set Lacy up to be a fighter, not a nun. I hoped she would break the rules and change history, not just slip into a pattern already established.
by spacepug December 1, 2010 at 9:01 am
I agree with you, her being more of a fighter and less of a religious icon would make sense. We might have seen it, but I'm not totally sure what else they could have done to 'resolve' her character given the time constraints. I wonder if they filmed the 8 minute epilogue 'just in case' the show was cancelled.
I think they could have done the exact same scene, with Clarice walking in on Lacy in combat clothes and having her review plans for a Cylon 3-man fighter, then having her hold out her hand for Clarice to kiss her ring. That would have been more in keeping with the character they were setting up.
by spacepug December 1, 2010 at 10:23 am
So Daniel and Amanda created skinjobs and resurrection technology came from the final five. Then someone please explain the flashbacks from Razor. Maybe they will in the new Blood and Chrome series.
Now that I have seen this episode it all makes more sense now. I seriously was afraid they were going to tell us BSG was in V-World.
Every major thing in happens in an "opera house" for both series. The stadium on Caprica, The CIC on Galactica, and the opera house on Kobol. I swear the stadium looked just like a battlestar.
by Retroscifigeek December 1, 2010 at 2:11 am
It looked to me like Daniel and Amanda had created a flexible robot with human-like skin. If possible, watch the clip slowly. So this would have been far different from what the Cylons developed later, I think.

Wow! Now I really want the DVD set.

The thought occurred to me overnight that I might have missed something important: the character called "Doctor" who Daniel and Amanda convinced to go into Graystone to get the laptop, was that Philo? He looked familiar, but I would be very surprised he could have survived being flung into a concrete pole in the mid-season finale…
Hi Spacepug!
Firstly, let me thank you for keeping this US viewer up to date on Caprican events. While this does "spoil" things for me, reading a synopsis in a blog isn't the same thing as watching it in person no matter how well the blog is written. So what you've done is made me eager for the DVD set when it comes out later this month. (And the Lords only know what's in the deleted scenes!) As such, should you return to Dragon*Con I'll be happy to at least buy you a drink. (Perhaps even a bit of backstage access; it's good to be a Tech*Ops staffer sometimes.)
Unfortunately, Philomon had his head crushed by Zoe/U-87. "End Of Line" has Philo's body being wheeled out by the Caprica City Coroner just as Zoe steals the Graystone van. Could it be the same engineer that lost his thumb?
Either way, I'm glad to hear that the writers (perhaps knowing the series wouldn't last more than its single episode) tried to wrap everything up in the end. Again, I'm eager to see what didn't get aired- as with BSG, so much more of the story's told by what's left on the cutting room floor.
Thanks Scott! I would certainly love to return to Dragon*Con. It was incredible. And my hubby is a sound and lighting tech who does a lot of big events, so he might even be able to help you out.
Thanks for reminding me what exactly happened to Philo, I think the consensus is correct, it was the other guy.
by spacepug December 1, 2010 at 11:18 pm
I don't think so. I think he was Philomon's lab partner, the one that had his finger removed by the U87.
Wasn't that the fellow who said Zoebot liked it rough before she bit off his finger? Rough indeed.
by Alphapenguin December 1, 2010 at 9:50 am
Your husband's a sound-and-light guy? Really? Lords know we could use him, especially with five hotels- and their ballrooms!- to run. Check us out at techops.net; much of it is staff-only, but the requirements and contact list are available to all.
by Scott Ash December 2, 2010 at 12:48 pm
A real good episode for the conclusion.
I couldn't have expected more !
At a moment, it was clear that Greystone would be killed or jailed. But their survival and the fact that people learns that U87 were in the arena to protect them allows the link with BSG, where cylons become a part of society.
I wasn't surprized at all for Lucy. That was pretty clear, when she said during the last episode that they must stay on Gemenon with her new status of a leader.
Joseph doesn't become leader of the mobs, that is frustrating but not illogical. In BSG, we cannot imagine admiral Adama with a father, leader of a mob.. And so it is logical in Caprica. The help of Guatrau's daugther was necessary to take the control over the mob.
A little frustrating that Caprica has ended, but this great end lets no real frustration like BSG's end. It's a gread end to conclude this show.
We can just hope Blood & Chrome will be interesting to watch
by Yarrick December 1, 2010 at 9:15 am
Joseph can't become the mob leader. He has to become a great civil rights lawyer. Representing oppressed Taurons, I imagine. (And winning his cases by having the mob kill his opponents?)
In BSG, he was described as a civil rights lawyer.

And it's bad that Lacy's story got such a weird, abrupt ending, but at least she got an ending. Tamara and Agent Duram were both completely forgotten about in the last two episodes.
Who shot Duram? Was it Agent Youngblood? Barnabus? Daniel?
Where did Tamara go?
Good points. I noticed that Tamara disappeared last week, but she slipped my mind this week. For a cancellation, it wrapped up more than I expected, but certainly not everything.
Thank you, Ted C! I've been wanting a good question for a 'donation poll'. I'll use that one. I'm curious, for the sake of discussion, why might one think Daniel shot Agent Durham? Is it just the fact that his phone number was undoubtedly on her cell phone many times, a suspected affair? That wouldn't seem like enough. Agent Singh seems to be the obvious choice, but why wouldn't he have known Amanda was the true spy until Clarice and Olaf informed him? Perplexed…
by William December 2, 2010 at 12:39 am
I rather suspect that Singh had a tail on Durham for quite a long time.
by Alphapenguin December 2, 2010 at 9:10 pm
Finally got around to reading this recap after finally seeing the episode Friday night.
Daniel and Amanda's espionage and sneaking around isn't quite what I expected, but I find it oddly adorable, after being separated for most of this half of the season. They're both quite flawed but their flaws complement each other nicely.
Liked Zoe's metallic dress, which is especially appropriate. I totally called Original Zoe leaving things out of her memory on purpose. Her sadness at being "just a broken robot" got to me.
I've always quite liked Clarice, but in these past few episodes she's quickly risen to new heights of awesomeness and totally stolen the show. I kind of want to marry her now, and I don't even have to worry about her being taken!
The Guatrau's death and succession by Fidelia was a powerful and strong ending to the Adama/Ha'la'tha storyline that was never really my favorite.
I had misgivings about the big finale in the stadium, as for a while "Get the robots to shoot the bad people" seemed like a lame way out, but the way it was executed and the fact that it was interspersed with Zoe and Clarice's confrontation in V-heaven about consequences made me like both of these scenes much better than if they'd been separate. I was proud to wear my Centurion hat and watch my Cylon grandparents in action. The bit where Daniel says this is the event that catalyzes Cylon integration in society also made me like this event a lot more.
Zoe proclaiming herself God while creating a hellscape was very nice and meaningful, with all the Eve imagery with her, and how Eve was aligned with the devil, and bringing about the fall with transgressive knowledge.
The epilogue was my favorite part, and makes me extra sad we won't get to see this story continue. Clarice preaching to the church of differently-sentient U-87s had me gaping at the screen with its amazingness. Somehow I missed the "are you alive" connection until I read it here even though I love that repeated line in BSG, and now I love it even more. As I love Amanda's job as a plastic surgeon coming full circle now that she'll help her husband make Cylons with skin, and Zoe waking in the familiar tub.
I'm still not happy about the replacement Bill Adama, but it looks like it would have been executed better than I thought it would. At first I thought this decision took away from Adama's character development, but upon thinking about it some more I realize that the Adama we see in BSG is one who is always carrying around the deaths of his family, friends, and world, and it weighs upon him and he carries it everywhere he goes, so the fact that it's been this way from the start, and grief is part of even his name, is interesting. The "So say we all" was perfect.
As for Tamara, who shot Duram, and how Lacy came to be a religious leader, I guess we'll never know.
Thanks alot for doing all this great blogging, spacepug, and to 13th colony for hosting such fun viewing meetups. This post is alot longer than I meant it to be so I'll stop rambling now.
by Katherine December 5, 2010 at 11:47 am
Probably an anonymous killer working for GDD director
He received instructions to kill and that's all.
Tamara has disappeared. Wait ? We have endured so many useless episodes in New Cap City in order to have this conclusion ? Sigh.
Like many fans said, you can skip most episodes of the first half season.
That's my only regret. This show would have worked a lot more when beginning with season 1.5 and one or two episodes in addition..
by Yarrick December 5, 2010 at 1:37 pm
The only problem is that the show that Caprica became in the second half wasn't the show that the network had planned on supporting. The writers were trying to create some quirky character-based drama with a few sci-fi elements. The network wanted to make an affordable show with few special effects. Episodes were even shot in pairs to reduce production costs.
The show that Caprica turned into ended up costing more than the network wanted to spend. When they saw that the first couple episodes weren't working out, they obviously pushed for the show to have more special effects and a more BSG-like plot. Subsequently, the show became so expensive that they had to drop an entire episode just to pay for the other episodes.
This show had so much going against it that by the time they scripted the last episodes they probably saw the writing on the wall and knew the show was unlikely to be renewed. Thankfully, they were able to wrap most things up and didn't leave us with some huge cliff hanger.
I have no proof for this, but I do have a theory that one of the things that made BSG so great was that they had a bigger budget thanks to a production deal between Sci-Fi in the US and Sky One in the UK. That and that most of the BSG sets were made in the miniseries (which had a budget separate from the series), which allowed them to spend money elsewhere during the first season.
by Adam December 8, 2010 at 2:55 pm
All right, some of the 13th Colonists think that the church in which Clarice is preaching to the toasters, is a virtual church with Virtual!Zoe. I contend that Virtual!Zoe is now in a different camp than Head!Zoe, who I believe to be the Zoe that was in the [actual] church. So, my question is this. Can anyone recall an event in Caprica, where they were in V-world, and they didn't seguey in with a "Red Cylon Curtain"? I think that, even in the epilogue, they would have used the curtain.
Interesting theory there. In the podcasts David Eick did seem to indicate that they were pretty inconsistent with when they used the "red blood cell effect" to transition in and out of V-world. If Clarice is meant to be in a real church and not a virtual church then they sure confused things by making it a very poorly rendered CGI church filled with CGI robots.
Maybe they should have taken the time to shoot the scene in an actual church. But, seeing how many other locations were done on green screens, they probably didn't have the budget for that.
It's clear that Clarice's congregation is in the virtual world: first indicator is the the cylon data stream segue into the church; second indicator is Clarice's admonition to the cylons that "(para)…in the 'real world' your minds are programming etched on silicon wafers…"; third indicator are the words, "The One" on one of the pillars. There is absolutely no way that would have been sanctioned on Caprica.
I wonder if Clarice received dispensation from Lacy to proselytize the murder of the humans by the cylons. It seems to me that Clarice is still harboring a megagrudge against the entire Graystone family ("those that made you" literally) for the destruction of her virtual heaven, and her plan is to use her converts for vengeance against the Graystones. Other deaths are, in her words, incidental.
Having re-watched that scene I concede that it is clear they're in a 'virtual' church. I'm just not convinced that it was Virtual!Zoe sitting in the congregation. Possibly Head!Zoe has started influencing Clarice directly, to facilitate the fall. I'd like to see them create another 'angel' for Blood & Chrome and tie them all together.
by William December 9, 2010 at 3:20 pm
I fully concur that it is Head Zoe making certain everything is going according to plan.
Tragically ironic that the genocide of the entire human race may have been an unintended consequence of Clarice's desire to terminate the Graystones (all 3): Daniel as the one who first gave them life, Amanda for her spying and treachery, Zoe in whatever form she can get her hands on her for Zoe's various misdeeds and insults that inconvenienced Clarice's march to godhead.

Ithaca College to host 18th environmental film festival
Tommy Battistelli/ The Ithacan
Tanya Saunders, assistant provost for international studies and special projects and executive director of FLEFF, said the festival allows students the chance to experience something different.
By Aidan Quigley — Assistant News Editor
The concept of habitats will be the focus of this year's Finger Lakes Environmental Film Festival, which will be held April 6–12.
FLEFF is a local annual film festival in its 18th year and has been sponsored by Ithaca College since 2004. This year's festival will include films on several topics, ranging from New York City rooftop farmers to the crisis in the Congo, all under the umbrella theme of habitats.
The 18th annual FLEFF will include over 100 film screenings and presentations and over 50 guests, including academics, directors and film distributors, Patricia Zimmermann, co-director of FLEFF and professor of media arts, sciences and studies, said. Films are shown both on campus and downtown at Cinemapolis. Films on campus are free to the public, while students can buy a five film pass for films at Cinemapolis for $20 and admission to individual movies for $8 each. Along with the films, there will be discussions and programming, Thomas Shevory, co-director of FLEFF and professor of politics, said.
Patrick Grossi '03, a public historian, will be FLEFF's opening lecturer and will be speaking about urban housing at 7 p.m. April 6 in Textor 103. The FLEFF opening concert, "Carmen's Habitat," will be held at 8:15 p.m. April 7 at the Hockett Family Recital Hall in the James J. Whalen School of Music. Author Sorayya Khan will hold the international book launch of her new novel, "City of Spies," at 6 p.m. April 8 in the the Handwerker Gallery.
Shevory said the festival is completely different every year, as a new theme means new films and new topics of discussion.
"Everything's new," he said. "The whole program is a new program, there's new guests, films, everything."
Senior Kaley Belval, a FLEFF blogger, has participated in FLEFF for the past three years. She said every year the festival shows films by bigger names with larger international followings.
"Over the years, they've had more access to films from different countries and by different artists," she said. "Also, the guests who have been coming to FLEFF in recent years have been also been very high profile, exciting to talk to and helpful for students who want to go into the field.
"FLEFF helps us get out of our narrow tunnel vision and engage in a bigger conversation, a local, national and international conversation about issues that affect all of us," she said.
Shevory said the topic of habitats was chosen last year after watching films about bird habitats by the Cornell Lab of Ornithology at the 2014 festival. He said they were looking for a more explicitly environmental topic.
The concept of habitats, Zimmerman said, is one that is filled with contradictions.
"On one hand, a habitat is a designated territory which is lived in and sustains life," she said. "On the other hand, habitats are often marked by enormous instabilities, contradictions and violence."
Nevertheless, Khan said the theme of habitats relates to her goals as a writer.
"Habitats means home to me; that is, home in all its complexities — nation, family, identity," she said. "Equally important, though, is that home is also the stories with which we have been raised and which have made us who we are."
Shevory said student participation is essential for FLEFF, and between 1,000 and 2,000 students participate in FLEFF in some manner, as interns or participants. There are seven minicourses being offered this block addressing the following topics: the American dream, word choice and how rhetoric influences reality, narrative film as activism, prison as a habitat in film and television, geography in environmental film, human domination of nature, national cinemas and the intersection of health and geography.
Political Habitats: Narrative Film as Activism and Global Habitats, National Cinema in the Era of Globalization are two General Communications courses, still open for registration, that will be offered specifically during the festival week in addition to the two weeks before and one week after.
Belval said she would encourage students to take a minicourse in the future.
"It's a really good opportunity to engage with the festival in a different way and to look at these issues from a multidisciplinary perspective from professors you may not be able to take other classes with," she said.
Students can also participate by taking a three-credit blogging course or serving as an intern. Interns receive credit and aid the festival in many different disciplines, including operations, social media, marketing, hospitality and event management. Students can also serve as junior fellows, who get an inside look into the operations of the festival to learn more about how festivals are run.
Saunders said these opportunities are very beneficial to students.
"The internship is a way to give experiential learning while minicourses are an academic guide to make connections so you can have an integrated and coherent understanding of what you're seeing," she said.
Junior Katie Beaule, a FLEFF blogger, said FLEFF makes students aware of pressing issues that they sometimes are not aware of.
"Sometimes when we're at college we can be so zoomed in on everything that's happening, whether it's social or school work, and sometimes you can get in a bubble and forget what's happening in the world around you," she said. "Being aware is awesome, and FLEFF definitely makes people aware through the films they have."
Zimmermann said everyone's ideas are treated as equal at the festival, and students are often surprised by the way their ideas are received by the professionals.
"A festival is about creating a space for dialogue about issues and ideas that matter … and to bring people together in a way that is not a class," she said. "Festivals are about meaningful engagement and interaction. When you come to a festival, everyone's ideas are equal."
Saunders said the festival is open and welcoming to all members of the campus community.
"You don't have to be an expert, you just have to be willing to see and engage with others," she said. "The goal is to help us gain a better understanding of our own condition and the conditions others find themselves in."
For this reason and for mutual benefit, Khan said students should participate in the festival.
"The festival is a lens into different worlds that is delivered to this campus and town," she said. "Not to mention, too, FLEFF benefits from the energy and skills of students directly involved. It's a win-win for all."

Tyler The Creator's Bold New Direction With 'Boredom' Just Might Pay Off Big For 'Flower Boy'
Aaron WilliamsTwitterHip-Hop Editor
With rumors circulating about Tyler coming out on his new album, Flower Boy, thanks to a late night leak on Reddit, listeners can't help speculating about his orientation and dissecting his lyrics to determine new meaning behind his words.
On the other hand, some listeners are less surprised and more interested in whether or not Tyler continues to create music that they can relate to. With his new song, "Boredom," released today, they may lay any fears they had to rest.
Featuring vocals from British singers Rex Orange County and Corinne Bailey Rae (!), the song definitely taps into the ennui of the mid-twenties, when real life hits and we all find ourselves a bit adrift. "Bored and getting desperate as hell / Cellular not amusing and I hope someone will / Message me with some plans that are amusing as well," Tyler complains on the track over his signature break beat sample and soulful keyboard, reflecting the loneliness of a day off with all his friends occupied elsewhere.
However, with the "early release" of Flower Boy, fans are now finding interesting new interpretations. Where some would read into "Boredom" the results of the so-called "quarter-life crisis," when all our friends go out and get jobs, the relatively busy life of school is over, and prospects seem dim thanks to the current direction of the job market and the economy, others see more more heartbreaking reasons behind Tyler's friends' absence.
Some Genius users have posted theories that Tyler's friends have abandoned him due to his recent coming out, reading a more depressing interpretation into what would have been read as a simple lament of, well, boredom just a week ago. Tyler's own lyrics may support this theory, as he even states, "My friends suck, f*ck 'em, I'm over 'em / 'Hi ya'll, ya'll ain't hit me all day / What the f*ck is the problem? Is it me? / 'Cause I'm not solved, I'm… bored."
It's an interesting look into how our interpretation of music evolves with our understanding of the circumstances of an artists life and their process. Just look at Jay-Z, whose confessional 4:44 sparked a much more enthusiastic reaction than its immediate predecessor, Magna Carta Holy Grail. Music fans — including hip-hop heads — don't just want to be entertained by artists anymore; they want to be entertained, and relate to their favorite artists. Where previous generations were defined by technical virtuoso or cartoon caricature presentation, in the streaming era it seems that fans want to feel like an artist could be someone they'd want to talk to, develop a rapport with, and just hang around.
When an artist like Tyler pivots the way he appears to have with Flower Boy, going from internet prankster and provocateur to revealing the shy, lonely, "desperate" kid he always was, it endears him to his early fans, as well as opens up the possibility of reaching new ears, evidenced by his single "Who Dat Boy" debuting higher on the Billboard Hot 100 higher than any of his previous joints at #87.
"Boredom" shows that Flower Boy just may turn out to be Tyler's biggest release ever, not just from curious ears tuning in to out if there's any truth behind the hype, but because those curious listeners just might find something there worth coming back to, now that he's dropped the tricks and starting getting real.

We want people who infrequently share spaces to know one another, to be connected with a common desire to make of our world what it could be. This work grows a body of people, (from all races, genders, sexuality, socioeconomic backgrounds, religions, classes, occupations, and ages) who are like-minded about transforming our world into a more peaceful, equitable place.
An End to Ignorance, a 501 (c)3 nonprofit is fueled by the belief that until the least heard of us is cared for, and until all reasonable voices are attended to, none of us can be free or absolved of responsibility.
We create a synergy that continuously infuses a sense of bonding across difference, which can be called upon in times of great strife and intermittent societal unrest. It can also be the energy that drives our day-to-day interactions.

ABSTRACT: The objective of this study was to evaluate how the fertilizer composition, type and application method contribute to the initial growth of Pinus taeda applied at planting. Seedlings from an open-pollinated seed orchard of Pinus taeda were planted on a Humic Dystrudepts soil containing 15 treatments of fertilizer application at planting. Basal diameter (immediately above ground – about 5 cm) and total height were measured on all live plants after six, 12 and 42 months. The basal diameter at six and 12 months ranged from 0.49 to 0.63 cm and 1.64 to 2.15 cm, respectively. The height at six and 12 months ranged from 0.49 to 0.64 m and 0.77 to 1.01 m, respectively, indicating that fertilizing improved this characteristics in ~30%. Fertilizer composition, type and application method contributed to the first year of growth of Pinus taeda. Nevertheless, fertilization response disappeared after 42 months.

From those clever folk at Whistling Shop down the road comes Black Rock, a laid-back, low-key whisky bar with a couple of twists – the main one being the enormous 18ft oak tree table that runs the length of the room and has two glass-topped channels of whisky permanently running through it. The other being that there's no bar in sight – just a trolley with some bartending equipment on, a no-frills storage room barely concealed by a curtain, and cabinets all around the room displaying the whiskies on offer. A simple labelling system efficiently lets you know how much a dram will set you back.
But let's get back to that oak tree. Firstly, golden water taps spring out of the table in all the right places, allowing you to keep yourself, and if need be your whisky, hydrated. Secondly, there are little stoppers all along the tree that you can remove to have a nose of the booze that flows within. Brilliant. On my visit, one channel was reserved for their "Table Dram", a house blend that is taking on character from the French limousin oak lining, and the other was "Cherry River", a blend of rye, morello cherry, and spices, sitting in charred American oak. To top it all off, you watch as they pour it straight out of the table from the two whisky taps. WHISKY TAPS.
Alongside all the drams, they have a ten-strong menu of whisky-focused cocktails, some beers, and a few small plates (baked oysters, haggis balls and the like). The cocktails are split into lighter highball options (such as the 40 Shades with Powers pot still whiskey, fresh apple, and fennel pollen), and stronger, let's say "booze-forward" options. I can vouch for the finely balanced Nae-grain-i (Haig Club, Suze, Cocchi, lemon oil) and the transportive Campfire that employs Bulleit, Lagavulin Whisky and a peat smoked & vacuumed marshmallow!
Most importantly though, every time I visit, the service is nothing short of superb – a clear sign that Thomas Aske & Tristan Stephenson of the Fluid Movement are involved. Bartender Thom Solberg (a recent winner of a Rebel Yell Bourbon comp) is the unsung hero of Black Rock, gliding around the room keeping everyone happy without breaking a sweat. It's hospitality like this that stops 18ft oak tree tables and East London minimalism from becoming gimmicks, and allows the quirky features to blend in to the background of what is in my opinion the bar of 2016 to beat.

It is tricky to develop and realize designs for small bathrooms, and when considering small bathroom décor Mexican style designs should definitely be kept in mind. Small bathrooms are not as easy to design as some of the bigger ones. There are limitations of space, movement, storage, fittings and a lot of other things. A bathroom is a room where we don't just clean ourselves, but it is also a room where we relax and loosen up. A small bathroom makes it a little difficult to do so. His is because, it tends to get cluttered and congested very easily.
A badly designed small bathroom can lead to annoyance while using it. However, when looking out for innovative small bathroom décor Mexican style fittings are exactly the touches it needs in order to look brighter, more colourful and cheerful. Mexico is characterized by warmth, bustle, variety and culture. Having these elements being reflected in your bathroom décor says a lot about you as a person. Mexican designs are primarily ornate, colourful, motif-oriented and bold. Adding these touches to your bathroom will show that even though space is a constraint, your creativity does not have to be.
Small bathroom decor Mexican style should ideally be decorated with lighter colours. This is because lighter colours make smaller bathrooms look larger and more airy. However, there is no reason for the bathroom to be made of lighter colours exclusively. The bathroom can still have bold touches which defy the normative designs which are usually suggested. While the majority of the bathroom can be coloured a neutral shade of beige or cream, distinct Mexican touches here and there will lead to splashes of colour and boldness exactly where they are required.
Small bathroom decor Mexican style tiles are ornate and beautiful. There is nothing minimalistic about the approach Mexicans use for their tiling purposes. Their tiles are often painted with dark, rich colours. While they may be on the darker side of the colour palette, these colours still look very bright and contrasting when set against a lighter neutral tone. Many Mexican tiles are painted with elaborate motifs on them, which is the case of a small bathroom décor Mexican style will provide the respite from the monotony and practicality.
It is always difficult to decide on small bathroom décor Mexican style is what helps break the conventional rule decides which one has to follow when they are looking at designs for small bathroom.
Apart from using the Mexican style Talavera tiles, which are a clean indicator of the Mexican influence in itself, there are other steps to ensure that the bathroom gets a distinctly Mexican edge. The furniture should also be able to establish the Mexican connection. There are many antique stores which sell the ornate, antique wooden furniture which I reminiscent of Mexican culture. A small vanity and a storage cupboard can help establish the connection. If it is a very small bathroom, It is best to keep most of the shades neutral, but colourful touches in the form of a shower curtain, soap holders and towels in dark, bold colours eill help in furthering the Mexican influence on the bathroom.


3HN or H-C≡C-C≡N. It is the simplest cyanopolyyne. Cyanoacetylene has been detected by spectroscopic methods in interstellar clouds, in the coma of comet Hale–Bopp and in the atmosphere of Saturn's moon Titan, where it sometimes forms expansive fog-like clouds.
Cyanoacetylene is one of the molecules that was produced in the Miller–Urey experiment.

There are several aspects of a backup and recovery strategy that business owners (who do see reason to implement one) have to square away. By breaking the strategy into three core parts, your organisation can secure a positive ROI from a backup and recovery system that, with any luck, you'll never have to use.
Deciding on a backup platform is obviously the first step in the process. There are several strategies a small business can use to cover its assets. They could use cloud storage, network attached storage facilities that use hard disk drives or tape backup drives, or even a manual system where people protect the data by backing it up to a hard drive and then take a copy with them when they leave. No matter what platform you choose to utilise, you have to understand that if you look at your data as an asset, it stands to reason that you would want to protect as much data as you can. At Press Start Ltd, we offer a comprehensive backup and disaster recovery service that utilises network attached storage that pushes copies to the cloud in real-time. This not only provides the kind of data redundancy every organisation needs, it allows our clients to thoroughly plan their data recovery strategies.
If you are looking for a positive ROI, this is where it begins. A business needs to establish acceptable parameters for the recovery of their data. To do this, an organisation is going to have to establish what are known as their recovery point objective (RPO) and recovery time objective (RTO). Before we elaborate, we should say that if you are in a position where you need to restore a large portion of your data whether it be because of malware, natural disaster, sabotage, or blatant negligence you absolutely have to have these plans made (and tested).
Establish your organisation's hourly realised revenue. To do this you take the amount of revenue your organisation has taken in over the past year and divide it by the total working hours you and your staff have logged for that time.
Multiply the hourly realised revenue with both scenario-specific figures you've calculated in step 2 and take the difference. This number represents the total avoided loss, in dollars.
If your business is looking for a backup and disaster recovery solution that can seriously save your business in the event of a disaster something no ROI calculator will ever tell you call the IT professionals at Press Start Ltd today on 01638 603204.
