Haz - Oh no! That's worse than 'come and be bored by our 9,000 photos of us in various poses on the beach'. LOL.
5:10 am
Haz1558

It was awful! There should be a law passed that you only show holiday photographs when written permission has been obtained.
5:11 am
Jacula

I'm sure my Crete thing could have been a lot tighter and would have been if I'd stopped to edit and re-edit. However, I'm a terror for doing that and no one would have got anything if I had done. I'd still be pruning it down!
5:12 am
Haz1558

No, it was fun and educational - you got in local customs, history and the flavour of the place.

8:28 am
Merk

I am totally stuck. I have tried and tried for the en 10 and can not muddle my way through it. I was told it starts like the en 7, but I cannot find the last three letters. Any clue?
8:29 am
Sam

incisive
8:29 am
Jacula

Merk - try this clue Haz gave earlier - sounds like a call to end shortening of 'Archibalds'.
8:30 am
Jacula

Or words to that effect.
8:31 am
Merk

I'm not getting it.
8:32 am
Merk

I am in China. A tech support is trying to fix my internet connection. He turned off my computer and I had my word list copied from Brandy Jack and he deleted it unsaved. I had five words left and had to start it all over. It is way past my bedtime, I have a full morning. I am dying for one crummy word. Do I sound grumpy?
8:32 am
Jacula

en* (finish) + *** (what metal does in a microwave) + h*** (greets).
8:33 am
Jacula

A bit, Merk, but it's understandable!
8:33 am
Merk

The first 7 letters are like en 7 right? Nothing of that is changed? Why can't I find 3 simple letters?
8:34 am
Jacula

I Even Sympathise, Merk.;)

The so/9 is the plural of an interesting word--it means a fruit that is composed of multiple flower and fruiting parts--like pineapples and mulberries. Who says this game isn't educational??

All of the biggies today are unusual words--the en/8 is particularly odd. Its the plural of the en/6 which is the Greek word for joining--it's used to refer to the idea that Cyprus should be united with Greece into one country.

Aloyisius

10:07 am
hurshy

10:07 am
Strider

Can you clue the s in the right column?
10:07 am
Aloyisius

oh.. lemme look
10:07 am
jan

Don't have that right hand s, either. I was so sure it had to start sos, but nope...
10:08 am
Aloyisius

I think you need an sc from there?
10:08 am
hurshy

probably, it would have to wrap around and be a pl with the middle s
10:08 am
torgone

It's a mineral ..
10:08 am
Aloyisius

sc6.24?
10:09 am
Aloyisius

geology term, not igneous, but ...
10:09 am
Aloyisius

sounds a bit like a cuss word
10:10 am
hurshy

sedimentary...
10:10 am
hurshy

um... think think
10:10 am
hurshy

got it!
10:10 am
jan

Metamorphic isn't there either...
10:10 am
Aloyisius

strider... howya doing with that word?
10:10 am
Aloyisius

not gneiss either
10:11 am
Strider

Isn't the opposite of igneous, aqueous? Still working on it.
10:11 am
Aloyisius

lol, that is a pun.... not gneiss
10:11 am
Aloyisius

sc + not hers and a consonant
10:11 am
hurshy

i am so annoyed about so many things today
10:11 am
Strider

got it. thks.
10:12 am
hurshy

10:12 am
jan

Finally got it...thanks for the clues!
10:12 am
Aloyisius

some days life sucks, hurshy... what's tops on your list?
10:12 am
Aloyisius

the weather?
10:12 am
hurshy

no, not the weather
10:13 am
hurshy

i have some lovely tutoring going that i do mostly in the evenings, but i want more to do during the day
10:13 am
hurshy

i live kind of in the sticks so it's hard to find a part time job that isn't very far away
10:13 am
hurshy

but i've been kind of scouting around, seeing what there might be, esp seeing if i could find at home stuff
10:14 am
hurshy

and i read this article on MSN about at home jobs, and i followed this link to craigslist
10:14 am
Aloyisius

do you get bored?
10:14 am
hurshy

and there was this ad for an at home typist, so i was like, that would be good (yeah, i get bored)
10:15 am
hurshy

so i bought the "training materials" and it turns out that what you do is put up ads for at home typists and get other people to email you and you sent them the same training materials...
10:15 am
Aloyisius

I dig in the dirt (sand) a lot, weeding and planting.. in fact I'm going to plant the Christmas pointsettias today.. do you enjoy typing?
10:15 am
smooth_pappa

fireworks!
10:15 am
hurshy

typing's alright - and it's something i can do. but i was hoping to do something productive and i was so ticked that this was so STUPID.
10:16 am
bunnyvicious

Work at homes are REALLY hard to find, I got my fair share of scams when I was pregnant with the twins and trying to pull in some income.
10:16 am
bunnyvicious

Congrats Pappa
10:17 am
hurshy

the guy refunded my twelve bucks, which i didn't even really care, but it lowers my opinion of the world to know that people are wasting their time filling the world with crap like that.
10:17 am
Aloyisius

bravo, smooth_pappa!!!
10:17 am
Aloyisius

I would be so ticked too
10:17 am
bunnyvicious

I've seen commercials for typing up doctors transcripts, never tried it though.
10:17 am
hurshy

i don't know why it should be hard to find things you can do at home, i'm good with excel and it would work just as well to do things at home and email them in...
10:19 am
hurshy

but the whole issue is also complicated by some other personal things i have going on. anyway.
10:19 am
Aloyisius

well, I have satisfied my babble pallet today, and the clock on the wall says I must scoot.. hurshy, with your talents, i bet you will find something meaningful to work on.. see you tomorrow, babblers!

Have you tried maybe sitting a kiddo or two during the day. Some people pay pretty good for that.
10:20 am
hurshy

urf, i don't like kids. that's why i don't have any.
10:20 am
hurshy

it's not really about the money, it's more about doing something that doesn't bore me.
10:21 am
flosey

10:22 am
bunnyvicious

Why?
10:23 am
Minty106

flosey - as hurshy says, think doves and noise
10:23 am
hurshy

because he's just going over the same ground over and over and over, and now he's like probably not going to ask her, and i'm like, i was trying to be encouraging, and why did i waste my time
10:23 am
hurshy

plus he semi-insulted me
10:24 am
bunnyvicious

I didn't realize you taught high schollers. You're a stronger woman than I am, I could never deal with all those hormones. What's he say?
10:24 am
flosey

thanks Minty and hurshy, got it
10:25 am
hurshy

he said i don't have a sense of normal social boundaries. which is probably true but on top of everything else...
10:26 am
bunnyvicious

Then why did he even ask you in the first place?
10:26 am
hurshy

good question!!
10:26 am
torgone

Tell him to grow a pair and ask her ..
10:26 am
bunnyvicious

I ask my Dad for advice all the time, but I don't ever take it... He was just wanting you to tell him what he wanted to hear, you probably didn't!
10:27 am
torgone

Then tell him to quit wasting your time ..
10:27 am
hurshy

12:03 pm
K.Elisabet

babbler, is that the show Germaine Greer was on?
12:04 pm
Babbler

Channel 4 just issued a statement, which is half-baked, in denial and just pathetic. They ought to step in and intervene. It's their lack of intervention that's escalating the row.
12:04 pm
Babbler

yes, K.Elisabet
12:04 pm
72 Temple Owl

what are they doing? your link doesn't work and i find nothign more than "bullying"
12:04 pm
Babbler

by Channel 4 refusing to intervene, they're condoning what's going on on the show, which is deeply embarrassing for Britain. It's reflecting badly on us.
12:05 pm
stidmama

What is happening on that show? I see it mentioned on the BBC website quite a lot but don't know what's up.
12:05 pm

sorry, TO, let me see if I can find a better link for you
12:05 pm

i have to say i'm quite surprised that channel 4 would show those bits. i thought it was edited before showing it. even the 'live' thread on e4 always seemed to have silent bits (when I've been channel surfing in the past)

12:06 pm
Babbler

Denny, I don't think they had any choice. Teh show is heavily edited, and it's true they only show half the story, but if they left this out, what could they show us? How could they explain why Shilpa was crying?
12:08 pm
stidmama

Wow. that is nasty...
12:09 pm
caitlyn

As I said I dont watch it but the papers showed Leo Sayer walking out and someone else did I think..although nothing to do with this trouble..I still say cancel the show!
12:09 pm
Babbler

stid, there's subtle racism and overt bullying in the show, coming from 3 girls in particular, directed at a bollywood star. They've singled her out and scapegoated her. They are being deeply b*tchy and nasty towards her. Jermaine Jackson, the Face from the A-Team (Dirk Benedict), and H from Steps have allied themselves with Shilpa, but they haven't stood up for her. Cleo Rocos is trying to act as go between, but she lacks the strength against these ignoramuses.
12:10 pm
Denny

from what i can gather on various shows i've watched, a lot of people are angry at the bystanders not standing up for her and just watching in the background. I think they do have achoice babbler - they edit out swearing, so why not the abuse? i have to admit to being quite cynical and think that channel4 are being lacksadaiscal because they want the publicity. after all they have 24 hours of daily tv to use?
12:10 pm
stidmama

I am disappointed in Benedict if that is true, we went to the same college... though he is MUCH older than I am! I would have expected better from him.
12:10 pm
Babbler

I agree, Denny. Channel 4 are probably rubbing their hands at this record publicity. It's all money for them. Vile.
12:11 pm
Babbler

It's still brewing, Stid. Jermaine Jackson is close to blowing, and Dirk (I hope) isnt' far behind. They're trying to keep things together, and be there for Shilpa, without making things worse. That's how it looks to me anyway.
12:11 pm
stidmama

But the real disappointment is that anyone would treat another human being in that way.
12:11 pm
caitlyn

Im glad H is standing with her..(he is a local boy)
12:12 pm
Babbler

exactly right, stid. It started from a light-hearted silly show, to one that's got me close to tears.
12:12 pm
Babbler

H is a credit to you if he's a local boy!
12:12 pm

12:12 pm

i think all thepeople who have complained to ofcom and channel 4 should vote with their fingers and switch off from channel 4/e4. the public will have far more power thatn the government. after all, do we really think that charges will be brought against these people?
12:12 pm

12:14 pm
stidmama

is the firs co 4/5 the rug-making material like sisal?
12:15 pm
stidmama

the 5/12 is probably a plural.... (guessing, I have 90 words but not listing yet)
12:15 pm
caitlyn

Oh I am proud of him then Babbler ..There is quite a lot of racism around here.(catty comments etc)
12:16 pm
magzel

stid, i don't know the rug making material word
12:16 pm
Denny

i should think so too - they have had enough bad publicity with their talk talk shenanigans. i did hear earlier that Jade goody had been dropped from an anti-bullying campaign. well i could carry on debatig this for ages but kids need their bath. see you all later babblers
12:16 pm
Babbler

It's everywhere, unfortunately. It's how we deal with it that's important. Some people are cloaking it all under "cultural ignorance", but that's wrong. When Shilpa mentioned something H didn't know, he asked what it was and she explained. That's what normal people do! The catty girls use Shilpa's differences and are nasty about them.

I slept in, I tried to print a wood block (but it didn't work very well), I started dinner in the slow cooker, I paid bills and balanced the checkbook, I sorted papers, I ate my lunch, I talked with a friedn on the phone, and not once did anyone cry, whine, interrupt, or ask to have a book read! Wheee!

3:31 pm

conflating means confusing two things by combining elements of each.
3:31 pm

conflatulence, that is
3:32 pm

conflating, same root as inflating
3:32 pm
Scrabbler

Oh, like mixing things up.

3:32 pm

3:32 pm
Sam

3:32 pm

it's not quite the same as mixing them up, because, i was sort of merging si5 and si6 (thought there was the word "sista")
3:32 pm
Scrabbler

Well, sometimes these grids dysflate me
3:33 pm
Vicuna

But do they deflate you?
3:33 pm

en7/40, compound word where you find the pot of gold
en10 - if you make the en7 end like a stae ruled by a king or queen, and then pl it
3:46 pm
Haz1558

en7 - what you say when the story is finished, followed by a cheeky architectural feature. For the en10, imagine that the en7 has the sometimes vowel attached - plural it. The whole word looks like a campaign to stop shortening Archibald's name.

Here you go Spangle----nice doggie.
4:34 pm
Scrabbler

TY for asking, Kristin. At least it is not a huge grid, otherwise I would have shot myself.
4:34 pm
Haz1558

Spangle is happily asleep at the moment. You know you're a dog owner when your coat pockets are full of poo bags (empty!) and dog biscuits.
4:35 pm
FranMag

haz, the "empty" made all the difference in that sentence.
4:35 pm
FranMag

when i lived in AZ, the neighbor's dog came into our yard and did his business all the time. I kindly asked the neighbor to either clean up after his dog or train it to go else where. His comment was, he's trained to poop in my yard. I scooped the presents up and delivered them to his front door. nicely wrapped in plastic mind you.
4:43 pm
Scrabbler

It should be there--if you logged on under the same name.

SCORING
Each tile has a point value. To determine the score for a word, the point-value for the length of the word is multiplied by the total letter values for the word:

4-letter word = 1 x Points
5-letter word = 2 x Points
6-letter word = 3 x Points
7-letter word = 4 x Points
8-letter word = 5 x Points
9-letter word = 6 x Points

7:21 pm

where do i find how much each tile is worth? on the grid? is that the number on each tile?
7:21 pm
Judi

Tile stats are confusing. Means there are (usually) various words that start with a certain letter - such as E. Then the e words are grouped seperately into boxes, such as e words that start with en, er, etc.
7:22 pm
grammaterri1

yes adhd
7:22 pm

ADHD - You can find the rules by clicking on the 'Help' section above. However, I'll post the info here for you just this once...

Rules of Play

OBJECT
To list as many words of the highest point value as you can find among the random assortment of letters in the cube grid.

PLAYING
Search the puzzle board for words of four letters or more. When you find a word, add it to your list using the form below the puzzle. Words are formed from adjoining letters. Letters must join in the proper sequence to spell a word. They may join horizontaly, vertically or diagonally to the left, right, up or down. No letter cube, however may be used more than once within a single word.

TYPES OF WORDS ALLOWED
The only words that are allowed are those that can be found in the Enable dictionary. You may look for any type of word - noun, verb, adjective, adverb, etc. Plural nouns are acceptable, as are all verb tenses. Words within words are also allowed. (e.g. revolt and volt)

TYPES OF WORDS NOT ALLOWED
Proper nouns, abbreviations, contractions, hyphenated words and foreign words that are not in the Enable Dictionary.

SCORING AND WINNING
Every night at midnight CT, the day's puzzle closes. The high score list for the day will then appear showing everyone's total score.

SCORING
Each tile has a point value. To determine the score for a word, the point-value for the length of the word is multiplied by the total letter values for the word:

4-letter word = 1 x Points
5-letter word = 2 x Points
6-letter word = 3 x Points
7-letter word = 4 x Points
8-letter word = 5 x Points
9-letter word = 6 x Points

Example:
Word: BABBLE
Points: 3 x (3+1+3+3+1+1)
Total: 36 pts.

The winner is the player who has the highest point total when the puzzle closes.

THINGS TO REMEMBER
* The same word found in two different areas of the puzzle may not be used.
* The "Qu" cube counts as two letters.
* Points are awarded for both the singular and plural forms of a noun
7:22 pm
featherbee

yes. D is worth 2 points, J is worth 6 points, etc

i''m struggling to understand the points. i just added up a 7 letter NO word and totaled the tile points and came up with 7 points (each tile 1 pt) where does the total of 18 come from?

Oh, peri. Were you from UK, I would tell you to think of a radio DJ (The Emperor) from the 70's. However, that won't work. I'll think of another way of clueing it.

SCORING
Each tile has a point value. To determine the score for a word, the point-value for the length of the word is multiplied by the total letter values for the word:

4-letter word = 1 x Points
5-letter word = 2 x Points
6-letter word = 3 x Points
7-letter word = 4 x Points
8-letter word = 5 x Points
9-letter word = 6 x Points

The so's are easy until you get to 7 & 9. Those words refer to many celled fruits like pineapples, blackberries etc. However, they sound more like illnesses. Think of (for the sound) the liver disease you get from drinking too much alcohol.

Here are the lyrics for Clarence Carter's 'Patches. You just have to hear the dirgey lyrics they are set to.
8:39 pm
Jacula

I was born and raised down in Alabama
On a farm way back up in the woods
I was so ragged folks used to call me Patches
Papa used to tease me but he was hurt cus he done all he could
My papa was a great old man
I can see him with a shovel in his hand
See, education he never had
But he did wonders when the times got bad
The little money from the crops he raised
Barely paid the bills we made
Oh life had kicked him down to the ground
When he tried to get up life would kick him back down
One day papa called me to his dyin bed
Put his hands on my shoulders And in tears he said
Patches, I'm depending on you son
To pull the family through
My son, it's all left up to you


Two days later papa passed away
I became a man that day
So I told mama I was gonna quit school
But she said that was daddy's strictest rule
So every morning 'fore I went to school
I fed the chickens and I chopped wood too
Sometimes I felt that I couldn't go on
I wanted to leave and run away from home
But I always remembered what my daddy said
With tears in his eyes on his dyin bed
He said, "Patches, I'm depending on you son
I tried to do my best,
It's up to you to do the rest

I know you had no intention of offending, Jac--but we've just celebrated MLK, Jr. day here and part of his legacy is that most Americans understand that we do not use such words--among many other gifts he gave us.

Jacula, I find it quite odd that you respond to what nut said acknowledging the remark would be considered racist if said by a KKK. That you are a student of English is irrelevant; as is what call your black friends. No one called you are racist. I think you are being insensitive. You even refer to the word a second time. You, of course, may not agree.

Sears is where my mother bought all our school clothes growing up. Then the quality declined dramatically in the 80s (and they wondered why people didn't buy their stuff); when I worked for them they treated their employees very badly.
