What's the most unusual place you've ever hooked up? How'd it go?
The most unusual place I have ever hooked up is on the beach at night in the Dominican Republic. We were at a concert together on the beach. Both of us were not ready for bed when it ended so we found this huge lounge chair. We stayed there all night into morning. The hooking up was just as good as watching the sunrise!
What's in your purse or pocket right now?
In my purse I have the following: Lolly-pops, two bouncy balls, lip gloss, camera, ear buds, cell phone, wallet, nail file, hackie sack, car keys. make-up, matches, and a pay stub.

Would you rather have boring sex all the time or an amazing romp once a year?
I would rather have one amazing romp once a year. What's the point in having boring sex all the time? Once it becomes mediocre maybe its time to move on or introduce new things to your sexual relationships.
If you could do a shot of Jose Cuervo with anyone -- dead or alive -- who would it be?

I got this duvet cover because my dogs see my bed as their own, so I often need to launder my duvet cover. This duvet cover fits the bill perfectly. It's perhaps a shade more toward orange than the red that was on the website, but still a color I was totally happy with. The duvet cover fit perfectly over my overstuffed duvet, and is substantial enough that the colors from the duvet underneath aren't visible through this fabric. I have washed it 2-3 times since purchasing it, and it has held up well. It's a vibrant color, and has really perked up my bedroom. I'm really happy with this purchase, especially at this price.
The comfort is made of very nice fabric. It is soft and smooth but well constructed. I washed it once before using it and it washed very well. The pattern really makes the bedroom much more alive. We are very happy with the purchase.
was completely satisfied with this duvet. the sage color was just as shown. was true to size also. would recommend this item.
Great value for the money!!! It is a very nice fabric. I have a queen size bed so, I ordered a king and use it as a bedspread, I may by another set.
This item is an inexpensive solution for couples who sleep wtih pets, like us. We are always washing our duvet to keep it fresh and clean. For the price, we have bought 2, so we can put a clean one right on the bed while the other is in the wash. Green color has a bit of a lime tone to it, but I love the added brightness. Its not egytian cotton comfort, but thats where a nice set of sheets comes in . I love the look, it was exactly what I wanted and I looked EVERYWHERE. And for the price, well, we could afford 2!
My fist duvet cover set and I enjoy very much. Made from great quality and designs are beautiful!
Great print, wonderful feel and terrific price....I bought the blk/wht combo and the blk is not super dark but a muted blk. The white is a soft white without being cr�me. Really striking.
Purchased king size sage duvet set, colors are bright and cheery, coordinated well with brown and white color scheme, fabric is soft and comfortable. Very satisfied with product.
I ordered this item thinking it was more red than orange. The design is nice, but the product faded when I washed it (gentle cycle and mild detergent). It is a lightweight fabric. I did decide to keep the duvet as opposed to returning it.
The quality of the fabric is average. It could have been better

The 2013 796 is one of the newest members of the Monster family and like is siblings, it offers a perfect mix between sports performances, dynamic design and daily riding pleasure. The 796 is situated between the 696 and 1100 models and combines the comfort of the first with the sportiness of the second.
The bike weighs just 167 kg and is equipped with an 803 cc L-Twin cylinder, air cooled engine, which delivers a 87hp @ 8250rpm and 58lb-ft o torque at 6250rpm. The 2013 model features a new crankshaft assembly which uses a lightweight 848-type flywheel and has a 66mm stroke instead of the 696's 57.2mm.
The Ducati Monster 796 is built on a strong, but light tubular steel Trellis frame with aluminium rear sub-frame, combined with a 43 mm Marzocchi upside down stanchion fork, which provides 120 mm of wheel travel. Talking about the wheels, they feature a 5-spoke configuration and are fitted with front 120/70ZR and rear 180/55ZR tires.
The 20th Anniversary edition feature the original wing mirrors found at the first Monster and the original 1986 Ducati logo placed on the tank.
Hit the jump for more information on the 2013 Ducati Monster 796 20th Anniversary.
The Monster 796 is the perfect synthesis between sports performances, aesthetics and daily riding pleasure. Cared for in each single detail, it is the ideal bike for each riding style and represents the utmost evolution of the Monster family.
Less is Monster
The 'less-is-more' philosophy behind all Monsters underlines Ducati's never-ending pursuit of genuinely compact, high performance motorcycles, but these new models have succeeded in being even more 'pared down' than their predecessors.
Every single component has been redesigned and redeveloped so now more than ever, form follows function. With any details detracting from the Monster concept being eliminated, 'less-is-more' also means 'less-is-Monster'. Less weight plus more torque equals fun-filled riding.
Monster Story
In 1992 Ducati unveiled a new prototype that was to become an icon. Ducati's creation awed the crowds and the world's media of that year's Cologne International Motorcycle show. The 900 Monster was a motorcycle that created a truly new niche - dramatically styled, minimalist in stature yet bristling with innovative engineering solutions. The Monster's radical styling has also provided the inspiration for an entire after-market sector specialising in hot-rod parts for this legendary machine. For this reason, rarely do you see two Monsters the same. This radical and refreshing design departure also influenced other manufacturers but, as the old adage states: imitation is the highest form of flattery... The Monster is characterised by a long and successful history, by its introduction during the years of numerous cylinders and uncountable colour options, but above all by a constant technological evolution that this year brings us to the birth of the last version: the Monster 1100EVO, "The Ultimate Monster".
Urban Icon
The Monster family introduces the 796, an exciting addition to the line-up that combines the user-friendliness of the 696 with the sports character of the 1100. Delivering 87hp (64kW), a dry weight of just 167kg (368lb) and optional ABS, the stylish new Monster 796 returns the magic of mid-range to the Monster family.
With the brand new Desmodue 796 engine at the heart of the machine, a single-sided swingarm and revised ergonomics, the Monster 796 perfectly balances lifestyle performance with everyday functionality to enhance the original Monster spirit.
Dressed in Ducati red, arctic white silk or diamond black silk with a bright red Trellis frame, the Monster 796 can be further personalised with an additional 10 colour schemes available in 'Logomania' the innovative Monster Art program.
The Monster 796 opens a new road to the world of Ducati Monster and becomes the 'urban icon' of hand-built Italian naked motorcycles.
796 Desmodue
The 796 engine is a completely brand new, lightweight Desmodue power unit designed to provide the torquey, smooth and enjoyable character famous of all Desmodromic L-Twins.
Exhaust System
Providing a deep and rich exhaust tone within current noise and emissions regulations is no mean feat, but the Monster definitely provides the L-Twin sound famous of Ducati. Its bold, high-level twin mufflers also make a striking style statement.
The exhaust system on Monster 796 has one Lambda probe dedicated to each cylinder, enabling precise fuelling for a smoother power delivery as well as complying with current emission regulations.
APTC Clucth
The APTC 'wet' clutch gives a 'slipper' type action that prevents destabilizing of the rear-end under aggressive down-shifting and also gives the extra benefit of a super-light feel at the lever, a great benefit in stop-start city traffic or during longer journeys. The 21-plate oil-bath clutch (11 friction and 10 steel) represents a power-enhancing weight reduction over the 'dry' system as well as having a quieter operation and requiring less maintenance.
Power and Torque curves
The Monster 796 produces 84hp (64kW)@ 8250rpm of power and a torque to 58lb-ft (78Nm) @ 6250rpm.
Lightweight crankcases
The new crankcases hug the gearbox internals much closer to create a smaller and more compact outer profile and achieve considerable weight savings over previous cases.
The crankshaft assembly uses a lightweight 848-type flywheel and has a 66mm stroke instead of the 696's 57.2mm.
Mosnter Trellis
An immensely strong but light tubular steel Trellis frame with aluminium rear sub-frame is the visual and structural backbone of the Monster. Delivering unparalleled rigidity with minimal mass, the chassis design is pure Ducati in its ingenuity and simplicity. A separate, all aluminium sub-frame saves weight and adds a pleasing continuity with the aluminium footrest hangers and matte finished swingarm.
Marzocchi forks
Outstanding grip and unbeatable riding comfort are ensured by a 43 mm Marzocchi upside down stanchion fork, which provides 120 mm of suspension travel.
Lightweight 5-spoke wheels
The extremely lightweight aluminium alloy Y-shaped, 5-spoke wheels reduce unsprung weight and improve agility. The 3.50x17 front wheel is fitted with a 120/70ZR tyre while the rear 5.50x17 wheel has a 180/55ZR. The result is lightweight, precise steering that is extremely responsive at all speeds while giving the vehicle exceptional stability.
Lightweight construction
Every carefully selected component of the Monster 696 has a net benefit to the overall light weight of the machine. The dry weight of 161kgs (355lb) has dramatic effects on not just manoeuvrability and ease of use, but also by contributing directly to increased performance, braking and acceleration.
Single-sided swingarm
The beautifully shaped single-sided swingarm gives the Monster a 'tough' look while ensuring higher rigidity, reduced weight and enhanced road holding.
The swingarm is chill-cast using aluminium in its most noble form. Gravity cast and heat treated, the component achieves the best mechanical characteristics as well as reduced final weight for improved handling.
The digital display is programmed with a stopwatch function that, when enabled, can be triggered by using the high-beam flash button and each recorded time stored in a memory. After your journey or track session, the times or lap times can be recalled from the memory and scrolled through by using the instrumentation buttons on the left-hand switchgear.
LED tailight
An LED rear light unit satisfies the minimalist, weight-saving design ethos found throughout the Monster 696. The specially designed strip of LED are enhanced by a special diffuser lens to deliver outstanding light clarity and incredible longevity.
For the Monster 1100EVO, even the license plate light uses LED technology.
Empowering Controls
The Monster 796 has enhanced comfort and control with 20mm higher bar-risers gripping sturdy tapered section aluminium handlebars.
Integral type Brembo master cylinders are used for both the clutch and brake systems and maintain a clean handlebar arrangement for the rider. They are fitted with user-friendly 4-point adjustable levers that provide easy-to-reach control for all hand sizes and the APTC clutch offers a super-light lever action ideal for use in the city.
The triple-parabola headlight on the Monster utilises the latest optical technology and advanced construction techniques to provide an incredibly compact lighting package. In spite of its compact size, the headlight throws a broad and deep beam to provide excellent visibility and make night riding safer. Viewed from the side, its discrete silhouette mimics the radical shape of the fuel tank.
Monster Style
Refined and sophisticated, the Monster 796 is proud to show its unmistakable style as the 'Italian ambassador' in the world of motorcycling.
The large diameter tube construction flows into the cast aluminium rear sub-frame which matches the matte black rear swingarm and footrest hangers.
The 17" wheels in the five 'Y-shape' mount a stylish pin-stripe for 60° of the circumference of the rim which creates a full circle of red when in motion.
The bright white illuminated display, the stylish red stitching of the new seat, the italian flag and the new Ducati logo on the front mudguard complete the clean and minimalist style of this new urban icon.
DDA Ready
The instrument display also doubles as a control panel for the activation of the Ducati Data Analyser (DDA) system, which is available as an accessory from Ducati Performance. The bike has been built 'system-ready' for the data acquisition kit, which consists of special DDA software and a memory key that slots into a plug under the seat. The same plug also doubles as the connection for a handy new battery charger available as an accessory from Ducati Performance.
The Ducati Monster 796 is available with ABS (anti-lock braking system).
Unlike the majority of motorcycle ABS set-ups, this system has the advantage of ensuring a more natural braking 'feel' for the rider.
The Monster 796 ABS is equipped with ABS, the single seat cover and the neat micro-bikini fairing.
20th Anniversary
90s Style wing mirrors
The celebration of Monster's twentieth anniversary is all about the details. The Monster 20th Anniversary models feature the original wing mirrors, with their unmistakable 90s look, the same ones that were fitted of the first Monster.
Logo Ducati 1986
The Ducati Monster 20th Anniversary series is enhanced by the original style of the Ducati logo introduced in 1986, which appears in clear view on the tank, along with the name Monster, it too with a markedly vintage taste.
20th Anniversary
The Monster has revolutionized the world of motorcycling, becoming more than just a simple motorcycle: it's a way of life, it's what makes its riders feel unique. Its customised versions owned by 250,000 enthusiasts have made it a true and proper icon that transcends time. Twenty years after its birth, Ducati celebrates this symbol of style and personality, presenting a unique model: the very first one. An unmistakable style coupled with latest-generation performance: here's the Monster 20th Anniversary, the motorcycle that continues to write history.
Original Livery
The Monster 20th Anniversary models have the same colours with which the Monster 900 was presented in Cologne in the autumn of 1992: the tank and seat cover rigorously in Ducati Red are matched with the bronze-coloured frame; the vintage style is completed by the champagne-coloured fork sleeves, by the golden Brembo braking system and by the chrome finish of the headlight. The many light-grey details of the engine and chassis are also a tribute to the first version of the Monster.

Autoevolution ---- "The bike presents itself as design classic with the '90's heritage mirrors and the almost vintage 1986 Ducati logo reading bold and clearly on the fuel tank. The new 796 Monster is powered by the new, lighter Desmodue L-twin unit inside a tubular Trellis frame for lightweight rigidity."
Totalmotorcycle ---- "The Monster 796 20th Anniversary is the 'urban icon' of the range, combining the user-friendliness of the 696 with the sports character of the 1100EVO. Delivering 87hp (64kW), a dry weight of just 167kg (368lb) and optional ABS, the stylish Monster 796 20th Anniversary injects the magic of mid-range into the Monster family."
Ultimatemotorcycling ---- "Off idle, the desmodromic Ducati engine burbles noisily and doesn't particularly like to hang out in the lower gears. Definitely not a commuter bike for slow-moving freeways-though it easily handles dodging through traffic-you'll find yourself trying to contain the Monster 796 in low rpm neighborhood environments. Slipping the clutch works fine, but you will find yourself eager to move along to the boulevard where you can shift up to third."
motorcyclistonline ---- "Ducati looks to have plotted a skilful course with the Monster range, which is now back up to three models (though many more if you count the optional ABS and various color options). The entry-level 696 remains a good value for riders who want an inexpensive Monster with the full complement of signature Monster style. At the other end, the 1100's extra grunt and more refined front end make it unquestionably the best model for experienced riders, unless they're very small."-

President Barack Obama ordered U.S. flags to be flown at half-staff to honor the victims of the Boston Marathon bombings, and the governors of New York, Connecticut, and New Jersey followed suit.
The president ordered flags on all federal buildings and grounds, military and naval facilities, foreign missions and more to stay at half-staff until sunset, April 20, 2013.
Twin bombings near the finish line of the Boston Marathon killed three and wounded more than a hundred people on Monday.
In a proclamation, the president said it was as "a mark of respect for the victims of the senseless acts of violence perpetrated on April 15, 2013, in Boston."
Following the president's proclamation, Connecticut Gov. Dannel Malloy ordered U.S. and Connecticut flags to fly at half-staff on state buildings until sunset April 20.
"Our thoughts and prayers are with the people of Massachusetts during this difficult time," Malloy said. "Connecticut is ready to lend whatever assistance is needed in the wake of this tragedy."
Meanwhile, New York Gov. Andrew Cuomo said U.S. and state flags on state government buildings will be flown at half-staff on Wednesday, April 17.
"I join with my fellow New Yorkers and Americans in mourning the loss of the innocent lives that were taken in yesterday's terrorist attack at the Boston Marathon," Cuomo said. "I extend my deepest sympathy to the family and friends of the victims, as well as the residents of Boston."
New Jersey Gov. Chris Christie on Tuesday evening issued an executive order directing state and U.S. flags on state buildings to fly at half-staff on Thursday, April 18, "in recognition and mourning of the passing of the victims" of the bombings.
In the executive order, Christie stated "the people of the State of New Jersey pause today in unity with the people of the State of Massachusetts to mourn the devastating losses suffered by the families and loved ones of the fallen[.]"
At New York's City Hall, not only were U.S. and New York City flags flying at half-staff Tuesday, but the flag of Boston was also flying at half-staff.

Kwame Kilpatrick. Elected mayor in 2001 at age 31, becoming Detroit's youngest elected mayor.
His mother is former Congresswoman Carolyn Cheeks Kilpatrick and his father Bernard is a former Wayne County commissioner who became a deputy Wayne County executive under Ed McNamara.
Kilpatrick's first term started with promise, including a restructured casino deal that led to the construction of the city's three casino hotels, but quickly became bogged down in reports that revealed Kilpatrick's high living funded by a city credit card and petty cash account.
Never-proven rumors that Kilpatrick held a wild party at the city-owned Manoogian Mansion, the official home of city mayors, made headlines after Kilpatrick fired a deputy police chief who was preparing to investigate allegations of wrongdoing by members of the mayor's inner circle.
The deputy chief and two former members of Kilpatrick's police bodyguard team filed a whistleblower lawsuit that went to trial in 2007. Text messages the Detroit Free Press revealed showed that Kilpatrick lied under oath during the case and used $8.4 million in city funds to cover up the text messages. He was charged criminally and pleaded guilty to obstruction of justice.
As part of his plea deal, Kilpatrick agreed to resign from office and pay the city $1 million in restitution. He went to jail for more than three months and later did more than a year in prison after a judge ruled that Kilpatrick had concealed assets that could have been used to pay down his restitution tab.
In 2010, a federal grand jury handed down the first in a series of four indictments that charged Kilpatrick with 33 counts of racketeering, extortion, bribery, fraud, filing false tax returns and income tax evasion.
The most serious charge carries a maximum penalty of up to 20 years in prison. Kilpatrick has denied wrongdoing and said federal prosecutors are out to get him.

Detroit is full of stories and families who say they have lost loved ones because the nearest ambulance broke down or just was not available. There are even more stories of Detroiters who called 9-1-1 and a police car never showed up.
Now multiple sources have said some of the area's corporate leaders are stepping up to help. Racing mogul Roger Penske has offered to structure a lease program that will put 23 ambulances and 100 police cars on Detroit's streets, and private corporate contributors will help make the monthly payments.
It is part of Mayor Dave Bing's "Active and Safe Detroit" program, which the mayor mentioned during his State of the City address.
"Our goal is to raise $60 million to keep our 17 recreation centers open and to provide the latest equipment and training for police and firefighters," Bing said on February 13. "Last week I met with the top CEOs of metropolitan Detroit businesses to ask for their assistance in raising the additional $45 million to reach our goal."
Sources told us the mayor and Fire Commissioner Don Austin want to see $15 million rolled into the deal over three years. That money will pay for new fire trucks and critical repairs.
Penske released a statement in which he said, "We have had early discussions. Nothing has been finalized. We will provide updates as available."
Detroiters are just hoping the talk becomes a done deal very soon.
We did reach out to Mayor Bing's office for comment. We were told the mayor will comment on this at a later time.

2 tbs brown sugar
4 tbs lemon juice
1 cup ketchup
3 tbs Worcestershire sauce
1/2 tbs dry mustard
1/2 cup chopped celery
1 cup water
salt to taste
Mix all ingredients, add beef or pork and simmer for an hour. You can also mix in crock pot, add meat and cook on low for a few hours.

A Private Letter Ruling is an informational statement of the Commission's interpretation of statute or administrative rules and their application to a particular set of facts or circumstances. A Private Letter Ruling typically addresses unusual or complex questions pertaining to a particular taxpayer. Routine tax questions are generally addressed by the correspondence group of the Taxpayer Services Division.
The Commission will not issue a Private Letter Ruling to a taxpayer who has the issue pending before the Tax Commission on appeal. The weight given a Private Letter Ruling in a subsequent appeal by the same taxpayer depends upon the degree to which the underlying facts were adequately described to allow thorough consideration of the issues and interests involved.
To protect the privacy of the taxpayer, confidential information is removed from the private letter rulings prior to publication.
Due to the number of rulings available, we can't offer a full listing. Instead, we've provided this database that includes rulings dating back to 1989. Hint: put your search phrase in "quotes" to search for an exact phrase.

I bought this. And was hugely disappointed. The thing is huge. Almost as big as my head. It has small clips so it wouldn't stay in my hair. And it didn't sit properly on my head. Looked like an ugly hair hat.

Murad Environmental Shield
Skin Care for Environmental Aging
Every day, your skin is exposed to the causes of Environmental Aging. UV ray exposure from the sun, air pollution and toxins in every day products all visibly age the skin. Environmental exposure causes the breakdown of skin-firming collagen and skin-smoothing elastin, resulting in wrinkles and fine lines. Damage to the melanocytes, skin's specialized pigment producing cells, creates dark spots and age spots on your face, chest, arms and hands. Murad Environmental Shield products harness the power of Vitamin-C and antioxidants to undo existing environmental damage to your skin and prevent future damage. Murad Environmental Shield products, used as part of an Inclusive Health™ lifestyle, can give you firmer, more youthful skin that's better every day.

Does anyone have any advice on how to make bath time for Caitlyn easier? She gets so upset and stiffens up and cries the whole time that I have tried to just sponge bath her as often as I can but the bigger she gets the harder that gets to really get her as clean as I would like to. Is this a preemie thing or just a baby thing? A lot of babies I have babysat for, or known love baths?

Publication: TheDay.com
Whilst on holiday back in Texas, the news hit that the great Lee Dorman had passed away. If you're a person of Gifted Awareness and True Musical Appreciation, you'll know Dorman. He was the bassist for Captain Beyond, a remarkable rock band from the '70s whose fame — as is all too frequently the case — remained minimal while scores of musical crapheads became far more successful. (Yeah, REO Buffoon, I'm talking to you! And many more!)
Almost a year ago, Captain Beyond guitarist Rhino died — so any hopes of a significant and authentic CB reunion is forever silenced.
Before this goes any further: yes, before Captain Beyond, Rhino and Dorman were members of Iron Butterfly, a band that did achieve some success. Whatever. No Butterfly record comes close to the greatness of the first, self-titled Captain Beyond album, which is a disc that you'll find propped on a dune on the beach of my desert island.
The band lineup on that first CB record also included former Deep Purple vocalist Rod Evans and ex-Johnny Winter And drummer Bobby Caldwell, both of whom wrote the extraoridinary material. Side One was an intelligent hard rock masterpiece, and Two was a side-long song-suite of breathtaking energy, beauty and ridiculously accomplished musicianship. (Here is a cool live sample from side one and here, from the same show, is an experpt from side two.)
Caldwell left after that album but the core band remained and recorded Sufficiently Breathless, a neck-snapping shift of direction to what can only be described as acoustic-prog — wherein Dorman wrote all the material. Again, it's a flawless collection of songs, including "Distant Sun," which became their regular show opener.
Ah, well, bands come and go and, ultimately, despite an interesting but flawed third album, Dawn Explosion, with Willie Daffern replacing Evans on vocals, the Captain eventually dissolved.
I know Dorman and Rhino had significant health problems in their later years. I hope they took at least some satisfaction in knowing that their work, while never reaching the audience it perhaps should have, resonated so mightily and enduringly with a loyal band of true believers.

A teen posted his 'coming out' announcement on his Facebook page, saying he was bisexual.
The teen's mother happened to see the post and wanted to let her son know that she loved him no matter what his sexual orientation was.
Since she was not able to see him before she left for work she left a sweet and comical note on his door. It read:
"Zach, I was surprised by your Facebook post where you came out. I want you to know that I love you unconditionally. I love you with my actions, not just my words. I'm so proud of you. You are the bravest person I know. I'll fight for you always. Your sexual orientation does not define you. You are still the boy who forever won my heart. The only thing that concerns me is the number of empty soda cups and tea bottles in your room. Throw them away before ants come inside. I love you always, Mom."

Warframe Overview
Story -
They were called Tenno. Warriors of blade and gun: masters of the Warframe armor. Those that survived the old war were left drifting among the ruins. Now they are needed once more.
The Grineer, with their vast armies, are spreading throughout the solar system. A call echoes across the stars summoning the Tenno to an ancient place. They summon you.
Allow the Lotus to guide you. She has rescued you from your cryostasis chamber and given you a chance to survive. The Grineer will find you; you must be prepared. The Lotus will teach you the ways of the Warframes and the secrets to unlocking their powers.
Come Tenno, you must join the war.
Warframes (Classes) -
Excalibur - The perfect training Warframe: the Excalibur suit allows players to explore the power of Warframes with a balanced set of capabilities.
Loki - Desired by advanced players, Loki offers a variety of re-configuring abilities. The abnormality of Loki's powers allows players to manipulate the battlefield.
Mag - (support, can deplete/replenish shields, has AoE crush) With full command of surrounding magnetic energy, Mag is an expert at enemy manipulation. She is a perfect choice for players that want to deal heavy damage in unconventional ways.
Rhino - (tank, close combat specialist, very sturdy) The perfect training Warframe: the Excalibur suit allows players to explore the power of Warframes with a balanced set of capabilities. Rhino is the heaviest of all the Warframes. His strength enables him to combine a mix of devastating offensive attacks with formidable defensive powers.
Volt - Volt can create and harness electrical elements. This is a high-damage Warframe perfect for players who want a potent alternative to gun-play.
Ember - (pure damage dealer, can ignite and burn lightly armored, unshielded enemies like the Infested) Ember is a nightmare for light – armored targets. Ember can super-heat the air which opens up surprising crowd-control possibilities.
Ash – (melee specialist, futuristic ninja, can use Shurikens, throws smoke bombs, and his ultimate ability is a teleport-slash move) Ash is great for players looking for a more stealthy approach to combat. Lethal abilities are complemented by powers of distraction.
Trinity – Trinity is great for players who prefer a supportive role. Warframes with healing technology are rare making Trinity a great equalizer when the odds are stacked against the Tenno.
Banshee - Using sonic attacks and acoustic target detection, Banshee is well suited for stealth gameplay and is capable of filling both attack, and supportive roles.
Frost- By channeling moisture and vapor in the surrounding environment, Frost creates formidable defenses and lethal attacks from sub-zero conditions.
Nova- Nova uses electromagnetic energy to contain and control highly volatile antimatter that fuels her abilities.
Saryn- Saryn's venomous attacks are horrifyingly effective against organic and synthetic enemies, and her ability to "shed" her skin makes her very elusive.
Vauban- The highly tactical Vauban uses his powers to create deadly traps that can zap, imprison and dimensionally crush enemies.
Nekros- Nekros uses his dark powers to manipulate his enemies, both living and dead.

Warframe Review
By Jason Harper (Hhean)
Warframe, the game that could just as easily be called "NINJAS… IN…. SPAAAAAACE!" is a Third person shooter that focuses on co-op play. The moment to moment play is very similar to Mass Effect 3's multiplayer, with a greater emphasis on mobility rather than cover, while the random maps, levelling and looting are more akin to Diablo. Its coop title isn't simply 'single player that can be played with others' as it really is only worth playing online. Bring friends.
You take on the role of a Tenno, a group of space ninjas who wear technologically advanced super suits that give them wizard powers. Each suit gives the user three mundane abilities and a fourth super ability that will, more often than not, kill everything around them. While most of your time is spent blasting everything in sight with a small arsenal of sci-fi boomsticks, these space ninjas make liberal use of a variety of close combat weapons to smash, cut and punch their victims. The combat is at its best when all three of these systems are being juggled in a single combat, shooting bullets into electrified foes before quickly dispatching a charging enemy as it hurls itself around a corner.
The game's enemies play on the normal tropes found in other shooters. The game currently has three major enemy factions: The Grineer (Space marines), Corpus (Guns with legs) and Infested (Zombies). The most interesting of these are the Grineer, an army of cloned soldiers who bear more than a passing resemblance to Starcraft's Terran marines. Having a chance to stab and shoot the marines rather than playing as the usual space grunt is an interesting change of pace. They're also the most fun to fight due to their diverse set of units and weapons in the later levels. The other two are good fun for a change of pace, but the Infested's AI is dumb as bricks, allowing you to kill them through methods that feel like cheating. One common trick, for example, is to simply stand on some crates while you gun them down, as they have no way to climb objects. The Corpus aren't difficult or very interesting, and mostly get by on a load of cheap gimmicks like AoE knockdowns and traps.
While fighting these various foes, you can show off your sweet, sweet acrobatic moves. In keeping with your character being a flippin' space ninja wizard, they can run along walls, do backflips, slide along the floor while shooting or slicing or do a Bruce Lee impression while they slam into enemies with a flying kick. While a number of the newer maps encourage the use of these tricks, they're too impractical to use in a normal gunfight. It's a real shame too, because it's this sort of air-fu silliness that would kick the game into high gear. It needs to be injected with some Vanquish style jet-powered floor slides for maximum badassery.
This is a real problem with the game overall. While the game's concept is completely insane, it isn't pushed hard enough. The bosses are a good example of this. When you think of the sort of bosses that need to be tough enough to take on four space ninja wizards by themselves, what doesn't come to mind is a normal guy with a shotgun with a recolour. The game needs more ludicrous death tanks packed with lasers, grotesque cthulhu abominations and stompy mechas with chainsaw lightsabers. The only notable boss is called The Jackal, a giant four legged robot that slams the ground while flying robots try to bomb you into submission. It's a good start, but a single standout performance in a pack of otherwise unremarkable encounters.
The game has an unusual levelling system where the player's account, their individual warframes and each piece of equipment can be levelled up. While an account's level only allows a player to make use of a few additional pieces of equipment, levelling up weapons and frames allows them to be upgraded through the use of mods. These drop from the game's enemies in the same way as a new bit of armour would in more traditional RPGs. This system means that rather than trying to find that exact Two Handed Sword of Murder +2, you simply go make or buy yourself a Two Handed Sword and then try to find a Mod of Murdering. So while you might not get a bit of gear tweaked exactly the way you want it right out the game, you at least get to make use of the weapons rather than having to constantly be on the lookout for that one bit of loot you need.
The game's crafting system follows through with this same ideology, allowing you to make what you want through crafting components that are always found in particular levels. The problem is that often getting these items can be a bit of a grind, as you slowly accrue the various parts needed to assemble your own personal arsenal of death. I considered the grind to be less awful than in many similar titles since I at least knew that there was a clear goal in mind, and I would get exactly what I wanted rather than investing a good chunk of time to receive something that could be potentially useless.
The game is, by its very nature, quite repetitive though, so if you don't find its gameplay inherently rewarding, or can't stand the length of its grind (which can be exceptionally long when trying to get certain Warframes) then it can be hard to maintain interest. The warframe grind can be especially painful, forcing you to repeatedly fight the exact same boss (which is likely an uninteresting palette swap of a normal enemy) over and over again to get the pieces that in turn must be crafted in order to fill out the requirements to get the frame built.
Something that reinforces both the strengths and weaknesses of the game's repetitive nature is that each mission's maps are randomly generated. This means you can replay the same thing over and over while still being presented with new challenges to overcome. It also means that when not playing the exact same level over and over you might sometimes feel like you are, even when you aren't. This isn't helped by the lack of tileset diversity in the game at the moment. There are only three, and one of which is used more than the other two put together. It is also the weakest of the tilesets, offering the least variety in its set pieces. The best of these levels, a snow themed tileset, shows real promise for the game's future though, as it creates a number of difficult situations for the player, with a good mix of tight corridors and open clearings while also providing some differences in verticality.
The number of different mission types pump variety into a format that could become stale quickly without them. When you drop into a mission you could, for example, find yourself collecting a certain number of macguffins, blowing up a ship's engine or holding a point against waves of enemies. The tasks you perform at a given location are always the same, but how you go about it can change dramatically based on your equipment, allies and the random map layout. You can even try to stealth your way through a level rather than head into an open gunfight, but it's currently too flawed to bother with. Outside of the standard levels, there's the Alert Missions, which are special tasks that last for limited periods of time that give special rewards. Special weekend events also add to the mix rewarding you with unique equipment exclusive to that event. The alerts and special events are a great way of adding some spice to the game's progression, and also encourage you to keep logging in to check what's available at a given time.
The game is visually impressive, especially considering how little stress it puts on even low to mid-range rigs. It's also tiny for what it is, a fraction of what similar games in the genre require. Unfortunately, the graphical fidelity is rarely leveraged to good effect, as few environments provide visually impressive set pieces.
Audio is good, but not great. The noises the game's various weapons make are satisfying, but its soundtrack leaves much to be desired. The game only has one voice, a woman who delivers various bits of exposition or gameplay tips. While her delivery is passable, you will be stuck hearing some lines repeatedly over the course of a single mission, which can turn even the best performance into an irritation.
The free to play model is one of the weaker parts of the game. Everything is very expensive, with new warframes costing somewhere in the region of $15. However, since everything in the game can be unlocked for free, and that unlocking all the equipment in the game is its only long term goal currently, paying for things with real money almost feels like undermining yourself. The only reason I can see for paying is if your friends all have varying amounts of time to spend on a video game, so those with less time could spend money to keep pace with those who have all the phat lootz.
Unless you're paying for power, that is. Orokin Catalysts (referred to by the community as 'potatoes'), are an item you slot into your armour or weapons that doubles the worth of each level that item gains. If the game ever added in some form of pvp, this would be a nightmare, but it isn't terrible as it stands purely due to the cooperative nature of the game. While these can be earned in alert missions, they're incredibly rare compared to their low monetary cost. A free user won't feel like they're lacking in power until the late game, where they will often feel under equipped against some of the game's tougher foes if they haven't scrounged up a few catalysts. If you do take a moral stance against any form of buying power, this could be a deal breaker.
The greatest strength of the game though is that it's being constantly being updated. There's a reason I have had to constantly use the word 'currently' throughout this article. While the weekly updates are rarely significant, adding a couple of new weapons or aesthetic options, the major updates (also known as the numbered updates) always bring dramatic change. These have been so significant that our previous coverage of the game is now almost entirely incorrect due to its ever shifting nature. I fully expect this article to be completely wrong about everything in the game the moment Update 8 deploys, bringing with it new maps and clan functionality.
If you played Warframe in the past and were put off by anything except its grindy nature, then it's certainly worth giving a new look. If you've never picked the game up, it's a great way to spend some time with friends, especially considering there aren't many co-op focused games that are free to play.
It's also a game where you get to play as a ninja space wizard. If that idea alone doesn't set your mind alight, then you may need to see a doctor. You may be at risk of not having a soul.
Graphics 4/5: It's a fantastic looking game, especially for a free to play title
Controls 4/5: Gunplay is impactful, melee weapons feel meaty. Acrobatics are fun but too situational.
Features 2/5: Has some out of game functions to keep players aware of in game alerts
Customization 3/5: Aesthetic customization is nearly nonexistent, but overall the game has great build variety.
Community 4/5: Built from the ground up as a co-op experience, with upcoming extras for clans.
Conclusion: Great

The Great Pretender
By James Keough
People with celiac disease in the US wait nine years on average before they receive a confirmed diagnosis. During that time their symptoms get attributed to everything from irritable bowel syndrome to emotional problems. They collect specialists and receive countless dead-end treatments before someone finally suggests testing for celiac. Others suffer for years without seeking help, thinking their sensitive gut is the norm, that it runs in the family, and that they'll just have to live with it. And many of them do until later in life, when a malignancy or the onset of a chronic disease like diabetes leads to the discovery of celiac.
It needn't be that way. A simple blood test can point to the presence of the disease, and a routine biopsy will confirm a diagnosis. Misdiagnoses (or a lack of diagnosis) arise because celiac can mimic a large number of other illnesses, even though it is said to present a set of classic symptoms: abdominal cramping, gas, abdominal distention, and/or bloating; chronic diarrhea or constipation (or both); steatorrhea (fatty stools); unexplained anemia; and weight loss despite a large appetite or weight gain. But many celiacs don't suffer intestinal distress. Instead they experience joint pain, fatigue, lack of energy, weakness, headache, neurological problems, depression, infertility, dental enamel defects, aphthous ulcers, or an incredibly itchy, blistery skin rash called dermatitis herpetiformis.
The more one reads about the disease, the more symptoms join the list. The difficulty for patient and doctor lies not just in connecting the dots—sometimes the dots are totally random or, worse, never show up at all. "To my mind it's in the wrong part of the medical textbooks," says Peter Green, MD, coauthor with Rory Jones of Celiac Disease, A Hidden Epidemic (Collins, 2006). "It should be in the multisystem-disorder chapter like lupus. It's all a matter of awareness."
Just What Is Celiac Disease?
Also known as celiac sprue or gluten sensitive enteropathy (and called coeliac outside the US), celiac disease is a hereditary autoimmune disorder that targets the lining of the small intestine. Celiac differs from other autoimmune diseases in that researchers have identified an environmental cause—unlike diabetes for instance—and it has a known cure. The cause is a protein found in wheat and other cereal grains. In wheat it is called "gluten," and that has become the generic name for the similar proteins in rye (secalin) and barley (hordein), which also cause the disease. "We didn't evolve to eat wheat," says Green. "Man's been around for 100,000 years and wheat only appeared 10,000 years ago, so our digestive system evolved not eating wheat." According to an article in the New England Journal of Medicine by Alessio Fasano, MD, epidemiological studies during the last decade have "revealed that celiac disease is one of the most common lifelong disorders in both Europe and the US."
While gluten "causes" ...

Fox 2 Money Monday with Murray Feldman
Hale Walker, Sr. Vice President of Michigan Mutual, Inc. (formally First Preferred Mortgage Company), a full service residential mortgage lender with offices in Southfield, Port Huron, Birmingham, Plymouth, Brighton and Livonia, is here to share with us what's ahead for homebuyers to consider in 2013.
Website: www.mimutual.com
We've seen mortgage rates tick up for the past few weeks. What ahead for rates? Is now the time to refinance?
In early February, we saw the average for a 30-year, fixed rate mortgage hit about 3.53%--marking the first time rates pushed about 3.5% in more than 3 months.
These are outstanding rates for folks to refinance --- but there are some signs that the all time, historic low rates, from 2012, may be behind us.
Now is the time! If you have been thinking about refinancing, it certainly is a good financial decision.
We are thinking that rates will hover around the 3.5%-4% mark during the balance of 2013-pending no big economic shocks to the economy.
If you haven't refinanced recently, you're probably paying a higher interest rate on your mortgage than you should.
It is critical to get some advice from a mortgage expert.
Metro Detroit housing prices rose during the last half of 2012. What about homebuyers --- what should they expect?
There is less inventory today than there has been the past two years. Price increases were largely the result of fewer for-sale homes.
Neighborhoods with strong communities-parks, schools, amenities continue to be the focus. In the past two-three years those houses would perhaps sit on the market for a few months and today they are selling in a matter of weeks - if not days.
The Metro Detroit home sales market experienced a considerable rebound at the end of 2012, with December sales prices increasing 26% from 2011.
New construction is also back-due to the shortage of inventory, many families have made the decision to build new. So, if you are considering a move and can't seem to find the right home for you and your family, its worth considering new construction again. We are back lending to these individuals.
We still hear stories of folks unable to qualify for a mortgage due to tighter lending restrictions - what are some tips if people would like to move and buy- but know they have some financial homework to do. What should they do?
Understand this is the new normal --- Credit standards remain tight. This won't change and it is better for the consumer, so we don't go back to the pre-2008 days. If you plan to get a mortgage anytime soon, you must treat your credit as your most valuable asset!
Be proactive -- Partner with a lender who will help you work on your credit and provide as much documentation as possible-we work with potential clients months before they are ready to buy. They partner with us so we can help get them on track to their dream of a new home.
Small changes matter -- Sometimes, paying part of your credit card balances can boost your credit score quickly, getting potential buyers on a more positive track to homeownership.
Still shop for outstanding customer service -- Customer service can make all the difference between a good and awful mortgage experience. Ask questions of your potential lending partner. You should have high expectations for one of the biggest financial decisions of your life.
Fall is here, so it's time to spice up that old mac & cheese with some tastes of the season.

Rays' Price expects to be dealt
Updated On: Jul 15 2014 09:15:47 AM CDT
David Price would prefer to remain with the Tampa Bay Rays.
The All-Star left-hander knows that is unlikely to occur.
With the Rays tied for last place at the All-Star break, the team's most marketable player said Monday in Minneapolis that expects to be wearing a new uniform at some point in the near future.
"Coming up in our organization, I've seen it happen before with guys like (James) Shields and (Matt) Garza and Delmon (Young) and (Jason) Bartlett," Price said. "We've had quite a few guys at this point in the season go through the trade rumors.
"Since 2012, (the organization and I) both understood that for Tampa to continue the kind of success we've had over the past five or six years, this is the way they operate."
Price was the first overall pick in the 2007 draft, and he is set to make his fourth All-Star appearance Tuesday at Target Field. This year, he is 9-7 with a 3.23 ERA in 20 starts. Price won the 2012 American League Cy Young Award when he finished 20-5 with a 2.56 ERA.
The 28-year-old Vanderbilt product is under team control through the 2015 season before he would be eligible for free agency for the first time. He avoided arbitration this year by agreeing to a one-year, $14 million deal.
"I'd love to stay (with Tampa Bay) and continue to be competitive, but I don't know if that's even a possibility," he said. "They signed (third baseman Evan) Longoria, so it's not unheard of, but I don't know if they can do two people that way."
Looking ahead to potential destinations, Price said, "I could be anywhere, actually. The Rays said they don't have a problem trading me in the division. That opens the doors for a couple of other teams. I don't think I'd have a problem fitting in anywhere. I know a lot of guys in the big leagues now. I at least know somebody from every team. That always helps.
"The Rays have traded quite a few guys away or let a few guys go who are in the big leagues now. I guess I'd just have to learn how to handle everything."
