It's a belt alright
By JustSomeGuy
from Milwaukee, WI
About Me Beginner
Comments about Tatami BJJ Rank Gi Belt:
It's hard for a belt to go wrong. It either works or it doesn't. This one works just fine. It keeps my gi closed, therein hiding my 70's-esque flowing chest hair. I'm sure my training partners appreciate my purchase of this functional belt.
Bottom Line Yes, I would recommend this to a friend

See all my reviews
Great belt that really stands out it's so bright and bold but if you lean in to check it out you will notice the label and black band is crooked and not cut square and little imperfections just not something you like to see in a precise and formal sport that demands perfection to win belts awesome and I would have given it a 5 star rating if not for that

Our Loving Family Christmas Personalized Photo Frame - Great Gift, Excellent Quality
" Much like the Christmas ornaments (#13843), this is a nice quality gift that looks good with the personalization. I created a frame to hold a picture of our three cats. (The preview photo fills in a sample picture but shows what your frame will look like.) One tip is to play with the order of the names that you put on the frame. Changing the order changes how/where they are placed on the frame. Some layouts look better than others, especially if you want certain names highlighted. Makes a great gift. Always impressed with the quality of the items from this website. "

Season's Sparkle Embroidered Stocking- Silver - Beautiful and well made
" I ordered two of these- one in silver and one in white. They are both beautiful. The silver is for my grandson and, in my opinion, has the perfect masculine touch for a boy. The quality of workmanship is outstanding with the piping along the outside, the lining, and the embellishments on the front. Everything in my estimation looks as if it will be very durable. "
Kelly B. - Carlsbad, CA - Monday December 2, 2013

Patricia's Q & A
Who's your favorite sports team, and why?
My favorite sports team is Top Gun from Miami. Yes people, cheerleading is a sport! I cheered in high school and after, I lived vicariously through one of my girlfriends on Top Gun. They are world champions, of course they are my favorite!
What's your favorite movie quote?
"That's the thing about needs. Sometimes when you get them met, you don't need them anymore." - Carrie Bradshaw, Sex & The City
What's your favorite video game, and could you kick our butts at it?
NBA Street for Playstation 2 and yes, I could totally kick your butts at it!
Piercings/Tattoos (How many? Where?)
I'm pretty boring. No tattoos and I only have piercings in my ears.
What's the most embarrassing song on your iPod?
Oh jeeze, this is embarrassing. The song "Reflection" by Christina Aguilera from the Disney movie, Mulan. It's so good.
What's your best party trick?
I can pop bottle caps off with a lighter and usually end up saving some poor chump searching around for a bottle opener.
What's the most memorable pick-up line you've ever heard?
"Hey girl, you want to know the best thing about life? ME!" and then he proceeded to lift up his shirt and show me his abs. *True story and I ended up engaged to the asshole three years later. I'm single tho, no worries!
What's the worst job you've ever had?
That would 100% be my first job at a daycare. I think the rule was 20 two-year olds per counselor and we changed diapers every hour. It took an hour to change 20 diapers! They only gave cigarette breaks and I was too young to smoke!
What's the most dangerous thing you've ever done?
Space Miami at 6am still in my work outfit... with only girls. Trust me.
It's 4AM after a crazy night out – what are we eating?
Whataburger, always! They start serving breakfast at 11pm and don't give you a hard time if you want fries with your bacon egg & cheese.
What's the strangest thing in your fridge right now?
Killer Buzz coffee energy drinks. I just did a promo for them & they loaded me up!
What's the naughtiest thing you've ever done in public?
When I worked in South Beach we had to jump on the bar and pour shots down people's throats. Our outfits made this a tad bit naughtier than it sounds and I definitely do not like seeing the customer's pics in their spring break facebook albums!
What do you feel sexiest wearing?
Matching bra and panties. Knowing I match under my clothes keeps me feeling sexy all day!
Tell us a joke.
How do you wake up Lady Gaga in the morning? You poke her face. Haha.

BioLogue: Departmental Newsletter
Change You Can Believe In?
In August, 1963, the March on Washington awakened the country to a range of social inequalities, and Martin Luther King's "I Have a Dream" speech laid out a vision for change. Now, 50 years later, we hear a lot of discussion about whether that dream has materialized. It's not an easy question; slow change can be hard to detect. As in the social sciences, so, too, in the "hard" sciences: without the right tools, we might not see change that happens slowly. And sometimes, seeing is believing. In July, an example from outside of biology graphically illustrated this point. The headline read: "The Pitch Dropped!" That exciting observation was the end result of an experiment started in Dublin, Ireland in 1944. The object was to demonstrate that tar pitch—a black, solid-looking petroleum product—is actually liquid. To do so, a "chunk" of tar pitch was put into a funnel and left alone. With a viscosity about 230 billion times as high as water, a drop of tar dripped out of the funnel about once every 10 years. But only this July was that event finally captured on video. At last, we can see: tar pitch is liquid!

"Gaggia Espresso Machines and Coffee Grinders; Constantly evolving tradition…"
Italian pioneer Achille Gaggia has been hailed as the Father of the Modern Espresso Machine. He invented the first lever piston espresso machine in 1948, forever changing the world of espresso brewing.
He was driven by passion and inspiration, and the current developers at Gaggia are no different. Their dedication to their craft has allowed the renowned Gaggia name to dominate the market and retain its position as the number 1 manufacturer of home espresso machines in Italy.
With its well known history of invention, Gaggia has perfected all of its espresso machines including Super Automatics such as the Gaggia Titanium and the New Gaggia Platinum series and semi-automatics such as the Gaggia Classic and the Gaggia Baby Twin.

Gaggia has thrown its hat into the prosumer market, with the launch of the TS, a top-of-the-line espresso machine with commercial components. This unit has been meticulously constructed with the espresso connoisseurs, enthusiasts, and perfectionists in mind. Even at first glance, the superior build quality is evident in the Gaggia TS.

I do not like ham. It's the texture. Bacon, yes.
I really try to discourage tit for tat around here even when they are so young. It's not always successful and of course I try to be fair but sometimes in life things just don't work out that way. You are not always going to have what your brother/sister has, and sometimes they will not have what you have. In the end, we don't have flies crawling on our eyeballs (a disturbing commercial they once saw at my dad's that was asking for $ to feed hungry children and I had to explain why this child had flies crawling in his eyes) so we are all very lucky.
I posted in breastfeeding but go no responses. Does anyone have ideas for me to lessen Sawyer's nursing sessions? It's so exhausting that he is still nursing 10-12 times a day and all night too. Night is fine, I don't mind but I'd like to cut out some during the day. It's always the most inopportune time, and he's too big for me to nurse while doing other things. I try distracting and offering food but he won't have it most of the time, or it only works for a few minutes. I mean ice cream works but obviously I'm not offering that every time he wants to nurse. What usually ends up happening is I give in because he won't give up which is not generally how i deal with my toddler. Say no and then give in if he screams and cries. But I really don't want this to be a negative experience.
See I like ham, not all ham though. But HATE bacon. I know that is weird because it seems everyone loves it but me. I like virginia ham and boiled ham. Not honey. And I liked what we had last year. A canned ham, not spam though. I think MIL used 7up, pineapple and cherries on it. No cloves because I wouldn't allow it. And uses the sauce or whatever to make a ham gravy. I didn't have that though.
I did grow with parents who kept things VERY even between us. It's really helped I think for us to be close and not competitive or jealous. I got to go to France...my sister didn't have that choice but she went on another vacation that I didn't. I got music lessons, she got them. I got help to pay for college, she got help to pay for college. I got presents when I got a house, she has gotten presents for her house. So far the only thing that has been different is I got a 2K wedding and right now for her that is not legal in WI. When she has a kid though, she will likely get a lot more help there. My fault for moving 5 hours away and she lives 5 minutes away.
I really think this is why I belong having one child. I feel guilty if I am giving one of my dogs attention and not the other one! I even there try to give them equal amounts of time like when brushing even though one needs it a lot and almost daily and the other not really at all but I know she enjoys it.
Hmm, guess I haven't been around that many expecting women. I didn't know families tend to buy for them. I mean the idea just strikes me as strange....I couldn't see someone buying me maternity clothes. But I also haven't been around that many. I mean my aunt adopted my cousins and they are the only kids in the family in like 30 years. But I still don't see my parents buying my sister maternity clothes when she gets pg. It's just hard for me imagine. I can hear my mom saying, you got pg, you be financially responsible. Of course she will buy stuff....just for the baby and only the fun stuff she wants to. Like I know she enjoys sewing so already asked her to help with making cloth wipes and be on the lookout for a great soft material on sale.
Chrissy I hope you can figure something out that doesn't leave the girls jealous of the things and attention Jesi is getting.....and doesn't leave you broke between all of them. It's a hard balancing act especially with their ages. I mean I'm a grown woman in my 30's and adore my sister and really want her to have a baby (and not like she will accidently end up pg). But it would be hard for me to see her getting attention and gifts as a pg lady if I haven't gotten my baby first. In my head, it would ideally be me getting my baby and than about 3-6 months later she ends up pg with hers. That way I could pass her the things I am done with. But even if we didn't do that, I just need to get my baby first since I'm 5 years old and have been trying for I think close to 7 years.
I wish I could help Bridget. I have no ideas.
Along the lines of work, apparently I'm not the only one that feels the way I do here. http://ithaca.craigslist.org/rnr/3718975647.html
And someone else agrees http://ithaca.craigslist.org/rnr/3719085295.htmlCornell is Killing Me Slowly (Ithaca)
I know I am supposed to be grateful to have a job, but working at Cornell is making me physically ill. Seriously, I spend more time on the brink of a nervous breakdown than I do actually working. Morale is so low here. People walk around half dead with dark, soulless eyes. Co-workers constantly look for some way to "throw you under a bus" (a favorite saying around here). They say they are "inclusive" and supportive" - I say bull****! The whole campus is broken up into little serfdoms, and whatever petty tyrant you happen to get stuck with determines what quality of life, if any, you shall be awarded. Fall from grace? Make a social faux pas on behalf of your ruler? Notice that the emperor is actually naked? Then be gone with you! We shall make your life a living hell until you quit or kill yourself! Just watch!
In all my years of working I have never seen such a cruel, dysfunctional management system. They dump workers diagnosed with cancer, and throw away employees who get old. Sure they say that have support systems, but they're staffed by people who, although they may mean well, they are powerless. There is nothing anyone can do. And God forbid your nemesis finds out you sought help - then they just double their efforts to destroy you.
Does anyone remember that couple who lived on Rt.79 who died in a murder-suicide a few years back? They were a married couple who both worked at Cornell. Back then the story shocked me - now I am not the least bit surprised. That's how bad it is here.
Cornell is evil-horrible employers (Agreed.)
Your post about Cornell sucking the Life out of a person is dead on! I was laid off from my long term job and after applying to many places I got hired by Cornell.
The place is filled with soul sucking jerk offs that only derive joy from crushing the souls of everyone they encounter. The HR department is a joke and designed not to help...but only to hurt- and eventually eliminate you. They manufacture documentation (and/or threaten co-workers to write nasty things) that get put in your file (most of which you are punished for, but never allowed to actually look at or read) and eventually they will use it to threaten the employee or terminate them in a far less than legal manner. They boast and brag that they are "family friendly" and a "great employer" which is only patter with absolutely no truth to it. They have more money to throw around than God and better lawyers than him as well- so no truth ever gets to the public about the big red hell hole. Townies think it is the students that make the place hell...but nothing could be further from the truth. It is management plain and simple and the pit vipers (Bryn Kehrli - I'm looking at you!) in HR that make chit chat in an effort to elicit relaxed info. from whomever they are "meeting with to help" and then screw you with the data they get. I filed with HR to report the illegal practice of manufacturing documentation against employees, and all my HR rep. did was ask me to manufacture some against the manager in question!!! They are all slimy, back biting snakes. Cornell is the most unethical job I have ever had with standards for employees lower than Wal-Mart! My first week alone I watched 3 staff members deal drugs ON THE CLOCK to not only staff...but students as well! Cornell cops are paid for by the big C...so they won't do anything about it. Cornell truly is a hell hole!
Although I can admit I was paid very well...none of it was ever worth it. They pay you well to buy you and your life. Within the first 3 months there I was having nervous attacks and becoming ill when faced with going to work. Every minute there was an endurance test that nobody should ever have to face. Eventually I decided no amount of money was worth every second of my life being a nightmare, and I left and took a huge pay cut to work in a retail job. I love my job and life again and am happy to never set foot on Cornell campus again. Hell, I refuse to even drive by it, for the memories of my life wasted there are STILL too vivid to forget.
If Cornell hires you, say NO and run far far away. You will thank me later!
Although I will say, it varies by college/unit/department. I did not feel anything like this when I worked for Arts & Sciences. Not even close, not even on the worst days.
ps-I didn't write either of them. Although, I could have.
I didn't have people buying all my maternity clothes. But definitely some. Even Rich's mom bought me an outfit when I was first pregnant with Bobbie. Jesi does pay her dad rent and pays me for her car insurance. I'm expecting her to buy most of what she needs, but as her mom and soon-to-be gramama I don't think it's outside the norm for me to buy her and the baby things.
Bridget, I don't have a whole lot of advice for you. Most of what I would suggest, it sounds like you've already tried. I'm usually able to distract asher with something new (not a toy necessarily, a kitchen utensil, some sort of box, etc) or with a snack. Could you do a couple power pumping sessions (i know, at this point, who knows how much you'll get) and make him some boobie-milk popsicles? Small ones, maybe in an ice cube tray or something? That way he thinks he is getting ice cream but really it's super healthy? He's probably too young to understand a ticket type system, huh? Like, here are your 5 booby passes for the day, when they are gone, no more until bedtime.
After nursing asher for an hour the other night, I finally told him that the boobies were tired and going to sleep. You should have seen the meltdown/fit that ensued. I gave in and nursed him more because he just looked so pitifully sad. I feel your pain mama.
Chrissy, holy hell, that's a lot of negativity!
AKA Lisa724
and Chrissy I am lurving the new siggy
Bridget, the only recommendation I ever read about cutting down on nursing is to start using an egg timer. The idea is to first teach the child to "wait" for the milk. As in: "You can nurse but only after 1/2/3/...+ minutes; here, I'll set this and when it dings we can nurse". And after they learn to wait for it, half the time, distraction works and they supposedly forget about the boo-boos. Learning to wait for it is I guess a stepping stone to being told "later" or even "tomorrow morning". I've read of this approach working with some kiddos. For Bodhi, we halfheartedly tried it and he was so frustrated that at one point he started banging his head against the wall.
Chrissy congrats on being a gramama!
Christina congrats on your pregnancy!
I had a friend visiting for 5 days, her son is G's age and the boys had a good time playing together. They call each other their best friend, cousin, and brother. They are really cute together. She lives in NY and we only get to see her maybe once a year.
Work is going fine, it seems most of my paychecks are going to car repairs though. grrr. We both drive 1999 vehicles and we have spent nearly $2000 on them both. sheesh. oh well. At least I have the job to pay for it all.
We're going camping this weekend, trying to get another trip in while it's still nice weather.
Rachael, so glad to hear Parker is home with you and he is doing so well.
Shelley-mom to DS, 6
Myles, I meant to tell you that your concoction sounded VILE. That's 'cuz I really cannot stand liver. It looks great, though.
Bridget, I was going to suggest spacing it out too. That's what I did with Mira (and her beloved bottle; she self weaned because I had no supply to speak of) - She'll ask, and I'd do everything I could to keep her at bay. We just spaced it out more and more until we were down to a manageable number.
I was 21 when my sister had my niece. My sister was 28. As the youngest, I was used to being the one my mom spent most of her money on. My sister was financially independent and I was in college and they supported me. I remember my mother sending my sister some maternity clothes, primarily because she was working in Manhattan and was having a very, very hard time finding maternity business clothes that she could wear to work and look professional. It cost a fortune and my mom definitely tried to supplement that. It didn't bother me in the least, mostly because I was excited about my sister's baby.
I will admit to feeling just a little jealous of how much my mother bought for niece after she was born, though. I was in my 20's and I definitely knew better, but I was the youngest child and my mom had stopped buying things regularly for my older siblings. I was used to being a little spoiled. So I did have to learn to share. It wasn't anything that became an issue or that I ever mentioned to anyone, but it was a new experience for me not to be the baby of the family, after 21 years of being the spoiled one who got all the attention. I think it's a growth process, and I think your girls are old enough to learn that it doesn't need to be 1-1, so long as you meet their needs when they need it.
Myles, since you shared your excellent dog story from this morning (LOL) I'll share mine. I was in bed (after hitting the snooze button) and DH brought M inside after his morning run. Suddenly I hear a sound like an express train speeding up in the hallway. At the doorway, M levitates into the air and leaps across the entire space of the bedroom, onto the bed (it must have been a good 6 feet at least that he cleared with that jump) and then, of course, gives me his undivided love and attention.
What's almost funnier was seeing Vampire Kitty emerge from under the bed, stick her head up the way you see a gopher on the edge of its hole, eyes wide and staring as if to say "What the hell was THAT?" Then she popped back down under the bed again, dazed.
I was laughing out loud all the way through my morning routine.
Me (40) DH (47) & furbabies * m/c 7/08 4/12 11/12
Oh Mandy LOL. Dh said he wanted to play wack a mole with Molly. She does this thing where she pops up her head and her front feet on the bed....and cruisers around it. Oh she is down and bam pops again wanting her invite. No invite, ok I will try the other side of the bed. and suddenly there is that head popping up again. LOL
Got my piece of art in the mail......and without seeing all the pieces at once, it looks a lot different than the picture. LOL We weren't even sure we had the right one. So I turned the overhead light on and it suddenly was showing some reds and yellows. No light and it was VERY green. Definitely has a holographic-ness to it and changes colors in the light. We think we like it, I might even like it better than the picture. We will try to hang the panels this weekend...there are 7 of them. We are not handy so there is likely to be b*tching and swearing going on. Well I was at first looking for greens or some green in there so if there was an unexpected color, green was the best one! We have three plants on that wall so I think that will work well. has to be better than a giant white wall to stare at.
Post pictures after you're done, Jennifer. Or a video of the hanging process
I will try. I have a feeling it's hard to photograph. I noticed some others were saying on other Ash Carl pieces that it was definitely different from the photo.
No video though. My digital camera is pretty old and the video function on it's great. Getting some kind of camcorder or whatever they are called now when we get a baby is or even before so we can video the dogs is high on the list.
Us doing handy type things generally turns into a big production. He stresses and freaks out about not being good at that kind of stuff and I generally can calm him down and read directions or something until we get it right.
It is possible I'm not giving Syd & Bobbie enough credit. I mean, even if they were a little hurt or a tad bit jealous, they really didn't verbalize anything. The fact that I offered to buy them one thing is on me. This time.

Authorities are still looking for the suspect involved in a shooting and robbery early Friday evening in Jacksonville.It happened around 5:30 p.m. at the Austin Bank drive through location at the corner of South Bolton and West Commerce Streets.Jacksonville Police believe they are looking for a black male in his mid-20s who was wearing a red hoodie and has close cut hair.They believe he shot 66-year old Louise Barnett, the owner of Jacksonville's Razorback Grocery Store, in the hand and shoulder while she was sitting in her car waiting to make a deposit - and family members say this is the second robbery she's been involved in in just as many weeks.Barnett was flown to ETMC in Tyler, where she is in fair condition Friday night.Authorities say she was waiting in the commercial line of the bank around 5:30 p.m. when she was approached by the suspect. He ran up to her passenger window and demanded she open the door or window to give him a money bag.Police say the suspect only approached her vehicle "He beat on the window with an unknown object, then produced a firearm and fired one round - at least one round - into the vehicle," said Sergeant Jason Price of the Jacksonville Police Department. "The bullet struck the business owner."Police say the suspect fled the scene on foot to the north, toward Bonner Street.They said that Mrs. Barnett ran from her car to chase him down before realizing she'd been shot.Family members told us that Mrs. Barnett was robbed two weeks ago today at her store, and that tonight's events concern them greatly.Anyone with information about the suspect or his whereabouts are asked to call Jacksonville Police or Crimestoppers.

Samuels Story part 1
I received the following from a friend and thought this group might find it interesting.
In life we privileged to meet extraordinary people. Few if any are rich or famous yet they exude spiritual awareness or abilities that help waken all who come in contact with them. Some people call them light workers, some say they are Indigos, others say spiritual masters that move in and out of your life changing you forever. I thought I would share, with his permission, the story of such an individual who has recently become my friend. In the doing you to may become acquainted with him.
When he was nine years old he was wakened and forced to stand face to face with a Draco. It became obvious the alien did not want to hurt the boy but was instead very curious and fascinated by him. The boy was not equally curious and felt only fear. The boy, Samuel, was not abducted this time but would not be so fortunate in the future.
Samuel was born in the United States from Dutch immigrants and soon began to display an uncommon intelligence that eventually drew the attention of the government. As a lark and to complete the requirements of his high school chemistry class 17 year old Samuel wrote and turned in a paper that completed Einsteins Unified Field theory. The stunned high School teacher sent it to the local university who then turned it over to a government agency who decided to seek out the boy and classify his paper as top secret. (still is)
Mean while Samuel started working and living in a forestry camp for a summer job and unbeknown to his parents was approached, and taken to a facility where he was offered another kind of job. They would not tell him what the job would be until he signed a (now expired) thirty year confidentiality agreement. Curios the young man could not resist and in the doing changed his life forever. It was at that time he met his second alien and experimented with remote viewing and taught other scientists his understanding of the universe. He quickly learned he wanted NO part of what was happening in secret and asked to be returned home. Under threat of the deportation of his entire family he was again reminded to keep silent and was not allowed to pursue formal university training. He was handcuffed and flown back home but to this day remains under persistent surveillance. Not just from the silent government but from aliens who know what he is meant to do in the future.
The story does not end there but slowly grows more and more intense when he stopped working the jobs the government arranged for him and sought work elsewhere. He had married a preachers daughter and wanted his freedom to aspire to the lifestyle his wife wanted but soon realize that decision would have severe consequences. Within a day or two of starting his new job he found himself in the hospital with major injuries that took months to heal, lost his wife, his home and his income. Yet the tenacious spirit of the man continued to struggle for independence and autonomy.
He was fortunate to meet and study with Indian elders who taught him the shamanistic ways of life. He learned to commune with nature and waken his spiritual attributes. He could recognize the sounds of Grey alien packs when they were in his neighborhood and distinguish between the smells and flavor of dark and light spirits and entities. His world was expanding but his watchers never ceased their surveillance or the persistent destruction of his computers, etc. He had become trapped between two worlds.
One day he and three friends were camping in the wilderness when they saw a triangular ship in the near distance. Unable to resist the temptation to investigate the strange appearance they stealthily approached the ship with Samuel in the lead. He stepped into a ring of light beneath the ship beckoning his friends to join him. They were hesitant but followed his lead only to be immediately taken on board and placed in separate areas within the ship. Samuel did not know what was happening to his friends when he woke to find Greys trying to perform experiments on him. To their great dissatisfaction the small beings quickly learned they could not control Samuel nor would he remain unconscious. The Grey technicians went to get help from their Pleiadian supervisor and who upon examination realized Samuel was not to be interfered with.
Telepathically Samuel was told what his future work for humanity was and that he would have two female children and suffer a near catastrophic head injury which was necessary for his future work. Of course Samuel refused to accept his future role and was upset about the thought of having a major head injury. He discounted everything the alien told him but was glad to be released and returned to the ground with his severely traumatized friends.
continued in Samuels Story part 2
As per my friends suggestion, and my curiosity, I called and talked directly with Samuel Hofman. I discovered he is a receptive compassionate individual with a lot to say. Even though much of his story was posted here I soon realized there was even more that was not.

Angel Governing May 1st to 5th
Angel number 9 - ANGEL HAZIEL - Energy: DIVINE MERCY
Qualities: Gift of pardon, reconciliation - Good faith - Trust, sincerity - Strength to forgive all wrongdoing - All-powerful energy to transform negativity - Support, encouragement, blessing - Promise, commitment - Altruistic, unselfish - Childlike purity - Universal love sharing all.
Distortions: absence of love - hatred, war - hypocrisy - irreconcilable - deceives others - manipulation to obtain backing of the powerful.
I would like to share with you the following.
Standing, sitting or lying down, breathe in the name HAZIEL by inhaling through the nose, and hold your breath a few seconds. Then, exhale slowly and progressively through the nose. Repeat the exercise as long as needed to create a state of calm. Then you can continue by breathing freely while continuing to invoke HAZIEL keeping the eyes closed.
By invoking or repeating the Sacred Formula represented by the Angel's name, we create a passage between the conscious, the subconscious and the different layers of the unconscious, thus reprogramming the different Angelic states of consciousness within, and allowing ourselves to reconnect with our celestial origin. The objective of this work is to purify our soul and become totally conscious in order to rediscover the Knowledge that lies within.
HAZIEL is your Angel number 1 (Physical) if your Birthday is May 1st to 5th
HAZIEL is your Angel number 2 (Emotional) if your Birthday is March 29th, June 11th, Aug 26th, Nov 7th, Jan 17th.
HAZIEL is your Angel number 3 (Intellectual) if you are born: 2h40 to 2h59 a.m.
In the picture of the Tree of Life, this Angel resides: HOCHMAH Specificity HOCHMAH

Muscle function loss is when a muscle doesn't work or move normally. The medical term for complete loss of muscle function is paralysis.
Paralysis; Paresis; Loss of movement; Motor dysfunction
Loss of muscle function may be caused by:
The loss of muscle function after these types of events can be severe. Often it will not completely return, even with treatment.
Paralysis can be temporary or permanent. It can affect a small area (localized) or be widespread (generalized). It may affect one side (unilateral) or both sides (bilateral).
If the paralysis affects the lower half of the body and both legs it is called paraplegia. It if affects both arms and legs, it is called quadriplegia. If the paralysis affects the muscles that cause breathing, it is quickly life threatening.
Diseases of the muscles that cause muscle-function loss include:
Diseases of the nervous system that cause muscle function loss include:
Sudden loss of muscle function is a medical emergency. Seek immediate medical help.
After you have received medical treatment, your doctor may recommend some of the following measures:
Muscle paralysis always requires immediate medical attention. If you notice gradual weakening or problems with a muscle, get medical attention as soon as possible.
The doctor will perform a physical examination
and ask questions about your medical history and symptoms, including:
Tests that may be performed include:
feeding or feeding tubes may be required in severe cases. Physical therapy, occupational therapy, or speech therapy may be recommended.

Adventure Lite Zip-Front Utility Jacket 3 3
Excellent Purchase Jacket looks great and the fit is perfect. I am 5"5' . 140 lbs. and the size med was just right. I purchased the matching pants and together, they made a terrific outfit !!! July 27, 2013
needs 2-way zipper Nice looking jacket, fit well, looks as if it would travel well, but given the length, it would work much better with a two way zipper or some other way to open up the bottom of it. As it was, when you zip it all the way, you'd have to hike it up to sit. Returned it. October 1, 2013

Rated 5 out of 5Â by JacHammer a woman in mens shorts! Love the Squadra shorts for their fit and comfort (few seams and wicking!), but I had to skip the womens version to get a longer inseam. (A Mens size Medium fits about the same as a Womens size Large.) I don't play soccer anymore (retired from 13 years of indoor!), but I love these shorts for fitness classes and running. They never disappoint! July 26, 2013
Rated 4 out of 5Â by Dan 1580 Solid Purchase I had to return the large I bought, since it was tight, but the XL fits great. Keep in mind I'm usually a large size, so if you're worried about anything fitting too trim, don't hesitate to order one size up. Also, the waist band is larger than I'm used to, which was only an issue when the waist ran too small. Now with my XL pair, they fit great, are a proper, regular length and bagginess (not too large like an XL underarmor would be). This really is how the Large size should be cut.

Rated 5 out of 5Â by Sushi542 Unisex I am an average size woman and I what I LOVE about these shorts is that they have a longer inseam than the womens squadra 13 climalite. They are not snug and fit great in the hips. I don't understand why most womens shorts are so 'short', IMO, since when I am active I don't want to be concerned about what is showing! July 18, 2014
Rated 1 out of 5Â by iLikeShopping Too thin - you can see the underwear We've ordered a Squadra 13 shorts white color for our 9 y.old son as his soccer team uniform. He refuses to wear it because everyone can see his underwear. I didn't expect from such a great company as Adidas to produce that poor quality items. July 12, 2014
Rated 5 out of 5Â by coachmikel Thanks Thank you for making a pair of shorts that fit. These don't hang past your knees and have enough material to house a family. They fit. This is a great short. I use them for workouts, soccer, and casual wear. March 31, 2014

It appears Samantha Scheibe is taking back her accusations of domestic violence against George Zimmerman, according to a motion filed in Seminole County by Zimmerman's lawyer.
In a sworn affidavit filed along with the motion, Scheibe said, "I want to be with George," adding that she would like the "no contact" order Zimmerman was given regarding an incident in November to be lifted.
In courts documents, Scheibe says she felt intimated during questioning by police when she accused Zimmerman of domestic violence and says she "may have misspoken about certain facts." She also says Zimmerman never pointed a gun "at or toward me."
Scheibe goes on to say in the affidavit that she is not afraid of Zimmerman, does not want him charged and will not help the state prosecute him.
Zimmerman was arrested November 18, after a fight the couple had in Scheibe's Apopka home.

SHANGHAI (Reuters) - UBS AG
Around 40 foreign banks, including JPMorgan Chase & Co
"China represents one of the most important markets in the world for UBS. We are committed to expanding our presence here and broadening our products and services to meet the needs of clients", Axel Weber, the chairman of UBS, said in a statement.
"It is UBS's plan to be one of the leading wealth management providers in China and the subsidiary bank is critical to realize this goal", the statement added.
UBS operates brokerage and mutual fund joint ventures with local partners, as well as a private equity unit.
JPMorgan said last May it injected 2.5 billion yuan ($394.08 million) into its China unit. HSBC added 2.8 billion yuan into its China operation in 2011, even as it laid off several hundred investment bankers in London, Hong Kong and elsewhere as part of a jobs cull to save billions of dollars.

Old-timers like me remember the popular TV show of the 50's - I'VE GOT A SECRET. Each week Gary Moore would MC the panel who tried to guess the "secret" of the guest.The three panelists were given clues to drill the guest, seeking to uncover the secret. We all have played games of this
sort or drilled friends to 'tell us their secret'. Well, Paul reveals to us a secret he said God had consealed from man through the ages. In Ephesians 3, Paul helps these Gentiles to understand the great depths of God's love for them and all mankind.

I'm very excited to see Only God Forgives. Ryan Gosling teams up with director/writer/'producer Nicolas Winding Refn once again to bring us a movie that features a Thai boxing club, a smuggling ring, the criminal underworld, murder and brutal violence. So brutal that Refn had to defend the use of violence in the film. The movie has been ripped for "lacking substance" but I will reserve judgement until after I see it.
For me, July 19th can't get here fast enough. To help pass the time, you should check out Drive. I promise you, it won't disappoint.

SOUTHFIELD, Mich. (MyFox Detroit) -- Michigan State University junior Brandon Carmack says Tuesday morning he was beaten by a group of students, some whom he says are hockey players at the school.
Carmack's scars are still fresh from an attack he says happened at a home on the corner of Beal and Grand River in East Lansing. His then girlfriend asked him to meet her at what students reference as the "hockey house". They say MSU hockey players live there.Carmack says there were a dozen guys inside. He tried to get her to leave with him. That's when he says he was attacked."Her friends literally beat me down and left me for dead."His nose was broken, eye socket cracked and he was held down while he says he was brutally beaten."I was getting hit and kicked several times. I got stabbed with something metal in my (head) and stabbed with keys."This comes days after another MSU student says he was beaten just off campus. 19-year-old Zach Tennen says it was because he's Jewish. Police are investigating that now.Meanwhile, Carmack says he was left for dead after stumbling out of the house and trying to walk home."I collapsed in a driveway, and thank God a friend of mine just happened to be at this house party and she saw me there bleeding and called the ambulance."Students who live next door to the "hockey house" are hoping the neighborhood stays peaceful through the school year."I've recognized like their faces from seeing them around campus and being at a few hockey games," said Steve Pyzik. "A little bit of partying is okay, but that stuff is just not acceptable."We talked with the university to ask whether they know of any of the allegations against some of those hockey players. A spokesperson says they have no knowledge of any students being charged with crimes at this time, but again the prosecutor's office hasn't pressed any charges yet.East Lansing Police say they will have all of their work wrapped up in both of these cases and will be ready to present it to the Ingham County Prosecutor's Office next week.

Migrants, Migration, and Development
Migrants, Migration, and Development
Recent Activity
This report captures India's exceptional growth in reported remittances over the 15-year period between 1990 and 2005. It explores the relative importance of these remittances in India's economy, and then identifies factors responsible for this exponential gain.
This report draws from the existing body of knowledge surrounding circular migration to identify: research gaps, shortcomings of common policy routes, innovative circular migration policies, and critical considerations for policymakers seeking to design and implement positive circular migration schemes.
For an increasing number of scholars, international migration has undergone a transformation particularly in the last decade or so. Although circular migration's impact on development is far from settled, a review of the current literature suggests increasing optimism about its developmental potential.
Previously confined to everyday conversations among migrants and their families, remittances are now on the minds of most governments, members of civil society, the international community, and, to some extent, the private sector. The continued deficiency in our understanding of some of the fundamental aspects of remittances is evident in current literature.
This policy brief examines the United States' complex employment-based immigration system, which admits foreign workers through five permanent immigration categories and dozens of nonimmigrant visa categories for temporary workers. It evaluates the strengths and weaknesses of the current demand-driven system and offers recommendations for improvement based on this analysis.
This report examines the connections between the United States' temporary and permanent systems of admission to the United States. It describes the goals and structure of each system, discusses the relationship between immigrant and nonimmigrant admission flows, and describes the critical data gaps that impede understanding of the underlying realities of immigration to the United States.
This report explores the complex issues surrounding temporary worker programs by looking at the ways in which the United States has responded to domestic labor shortages from the 1940s through the present. It examines the intent and structure of both historical and existing temporary worker programs, and raises salient policy questions that result from the analysis.
This volume finds that while emigration may be beneficial in some cases, unhindered high-skilled emigration, particularly in the case of sub-Saharan Africa, can have disastrous consequences. The author, Arno Tanner, recommends specific policies where carefully targeted development measures could be used to mitigate the negative consequences of brain drain.

This is David West, he is the Honey Badger, West just doesn't give a *****....he's pretty bad *ss cuz he has no regard for any other Player or Team whatsoever.
Great game. Maybe our most entertaining half of the year.
21 FTA to 7 FTA :/
Young defense was so bad this first half. Whoever he defended scored.
they technically ARE fouls I guess, but the Thunder instigate so much just weak crap. especially Martin.

Good first half. Can we keep it up though?
We are shooting a lot higher than our averages. Will we cool off? Or will Martin cool off first?
The Thunder are +12 from the line, that's why we are shotting 60%!!! and losing...
DJ had some good moments in the 2nd quarter!
I have not loathed our point guard play (DJ) this much since Cabbages. I understand that keeping DC would have been a bit of a gamble since he was so adamant about being a starter. But I think he would have remained professional coming off the bench for us. We could have signed Ian outright. We would have had to keep DJones instead of Green, but that would have been OK.
At least we've only signed him to a one year contract and can look elsewhere next year. It's just a shame that he's been so, so bad because the rest of the bench has gotten better (which really, when you think about it is somewhat remarkable given the point guard they spend most of their time with). If DJ could just be average we might not blow leads or fall behind every single time the bench gets some run.

"Appreciation is a wonderful thing. It makes what is excellent in others belong to us as well." - Voltaire
Michael Pina, Red94: "There are so many different ways the Pacers can beat you. They have an All-Star scoring threat, imposing figures on the front line, steady point guard play, and most importantly, a defense that'll choke the life out of just about every offense that crosses its path."
I was thinking the same thing, I was shocked

Who are those ladies on the foxsports.com commercial?
The momentum of the game changed once we attacked the ball against Kevin Martin... we gotta do more of that in 2nd half...
