Incorrect, she is ugly because she is a dumb liberal feminist who thinks that respect, like money, is supposed to be handed out to people for no reason. Guys who are fat generally go to the gym to get less fat. WHY CANT YOU?

i don't like that logic, "she's not phisically attractive so she must be beautiful in other ways". Some people are just all around terrible, accept it.

This paper concerns the robustness of local phase information for measuring image velocity and binocular disparity. It addresses the dependence of phase behavior on the initial filters as well as the image variations that exist between different views of a 3D scene. We are particularly interested in the stability of phase with respect to geometric deformations, and its linearity as a function of spatial position. These properties are important to the use of phase information, and are shown to depend on the form of the filters as well as their frequency bandwidths. Phase instabilities are also discussed using the model of phase singularities described by Jepson and Fleet. In addition to phase-based methods, these results are directly relevant to differential optical flow methods and zero-crossing tracking

Excellent service. Will definitely use again!
Absolutely amazing! I wish they had this where I live. I went online a month before my vacation and ordered what I needed. The delivery guy arrived literally the exact time that I had requested (they pulled up right behind us as we were arriving) and carried everything upstairs into our condo. It was awesome!! Who wants to go grocery shopping on vacation, especially after a long day of flying and driving. Everything was perfect, as it was the first time we used your service, and we will continue to use you every time we are in the area.
Quick service and all items delivered. Very happy and will use again.

Product Description:
Original score composed by Christopher Young.
Producers: Flavio Motalla, Christopher Young.
Recorded at C.T.S. Studios, Middlesex, England.
More than any other Hollywood composer of distinction, Christopher Young has consistently suffered the misfortune of writing his finest scores for truly mediocre films, and with 2000s Bless the Child he's delivered his most ambitious and darkest effort to date, contrasting the beauty and majesty of liturgical music with the unsettling otherness of dissonant strings, eerie vocals, and deep, snarling brass. Young employs the human voice for sinisterly inhuman purposes, contrasting the youthful innocence of a boy soprano with the creeping malevolence of a sinister adult baritone -- as solo performances give way to choral elements, the score's force expands to critical mass, operating within a conventional classical context while simultaneously embracing avant-garde ideals. A masterpiece. ~ Jason Ankeny

A Beyond-Easy Way To Create Your Own Custom Lip Color
As much as we like to fancy ourselves mixologists, anyone who's ever had the misfortune of testing out our clumsy attempts at a homemade mango mojito knows otherwise. Hey, how were we supposed to know there's not supposed to be vermouth in there. What's that you say? There are books full of recipes for that? Oh...whoops.
But, it's not just our libations where we have mixing drama. The same can unfortunately be said for our makeup mixology — we love the idea of blending our own custom eye and lip hues, but every time we attempt it at home, we end up with colors that are either muddy or just not all that pretty. Kind of defeats the purpose, no?
We were starting to think all those articles about doubling our lipstick wardrobe by mixing our own colors were total BS, until Stila pro makeup artist Sarah Lucero showed us the error of our ways. Watch the video as she shows our photo assistant Lilac how to blend two seemingly opposite hues into a totally unique, downright stunning new shade. Bonus: She also reveals her pro trick for applying lipstick flawlessly using an eyeshadow brush. Check it out!
Stila Stay All Day Liquid Lipstick in Fiery and Aria, $22 each, available at Stila, Stila Magnificent Metals Foil Finish Eye Shadow Applicator #37, $18, available at Sephora.

In reply to PHOTOJOE55 • Nov 16, 2012
All good advice. Jen, if you're thinking about buying the FZ200, I'd start watching Amazon. They will likely have a deep discount on Black Friday, but since most people are learning this, you'll need to be there early. I saved quite a bit last year on my FZ150 by getting a BF sale.

via Darren Dreger tweets,
As discussed last night on Insider Trading...big options ahead for the Carolina Hurricanes. Ward trade likely in the summer. Other names...
..either Skinner or E.Staal also potentially in play. All depends on gm J.Rutherford's future and his decision to move up, stay same or out.
Also discussed on Insider Trading (watch here) was the future of Barry Trotz in Nashville, Peter Horacek in Florida and Bob Hartley in Calgary, the Chicago Blackhawks and the New York Islanders.

Skinner would be a heck of a pick up for any club. BUT, his concussion history is very troublesome.

Posted by TreKronor on 03/21/14 at 10:12 AM ET
he is a little flimsy. Probably brought him into the league a little too young and undercooked.
Staal on the other hand, is a stud. Which is why its kinda crazy that they would consider trading him, especially since they went out of their way to get his brother to play with him. And what kinda return would they have to get to move him?

especially since they went out of their way to get his brother to play with him.
Posted by Hootinani on 03/21/14 at 10:36 AM ET
And little brother Jared is still in their system, IIRC.

LegalForce (formerly Trademarkia.com), one of the largest legal websites, today announced the opening of LegalForce BookFlip™, a brick-and-mortar retail store in downtown Palo Alto's historic 323 University building.
The three-level, 8,000-sq.-ft. store, in the heart of Silicon Valley within walking distance of Stanford University, is on downtown Palo Alto's prestigious University Avenue, the location for Google's, Facebook's and PayPal's first offices.
The LegalForce BookFlip store uniquely provides seven-day retail hour access to licensed U.S. attorneys on a walk-in basis without appointments. LegalForce lawyers provide initial advice on a wide range of personal and business legal topics. Follow-up meetings can be set up with specialists in a variety of practice areas. The store, designed as a retail bookstore lounge, sells not only a wide range of books and tablets but also offers free classes on topics including entrepreneurship, business, and law. It is designed to fill the growing bookstore void left on Main Streets across the U.S.
"People want and need bookstores on Main Street," noted Raj Abhyanker, LegalForce CEO. "Independent bookstores and national chains such Borders and Barnes & Noble are finding it increasingly difficult to survive because of high rent and because some prefer to purchase books online."
This undermines the community-based feel and the sanctuary of knowledge that bookstores have provided to neighborhoods over hundreds of years. LegalForce is working to keep bookstores on Main Streets by supplementing them with a revenue model based on access to legal services. In addition to its flagship LegalForce BookFlip store, the company plans to form partnerships with existing bookstores across the country.
The historic LegalForce BookFlip building, across the street from a new Apple store, has been fully restored to its original characteristics with an investment of over $2 million. It features original mahogany doors and staircases, as well as historical facades accurately reflecting the Spanish Colonial revival style of the original architect, Birge Clark, which the Palo Alto Weekly nearly a century ago labeled "Palo Alto's best-loved architect." The historical restoration is refreshed with a hip and ultra-modern Apple store-like interior in which books on shelves surround tablets for sale.
"We want people to realize that lawyers, like doctors, can provide help throughout various stages of life," CEO Abhyanker, himself an attorney, said. "Few people know where to turn for legal help. We solve this by letting the public walk into a major retail location for help. This makes obtaining legal assistance easy, convenient and affordable."
LegalForce plans to create a new national brand for legal services, based around the core values of efficiency, transparency, and accessibility. To achieve this goal, LegalForce plans to attract other law firms that share these core values and will unite under the LegalForce brand.
Clients can also book LegalForce attorneys online through the website's new "Chat-torneys" feature, which delivers worldwide access to a California-licensed attorney privately via video chat, telephone, or instant messaging. LegalForce will also sell books and Google Nexus tablets online, offering individuals and businesses unique bundled offerings of legal services, books and tablets.
Since its Sept. 2009 launch, the self-funded LegalForce has helped to create the world's largest trademark law firm, having filed more than 23,000 U.S. trademarks. LegalForce has already helped to file more American trademarks through licensed U.S. attorneys than any other law firm in U.S. history. Its trademark search engine attracts more than 1.8 million unique visitors per month, making it one of the largest legal-oriented websites.
About LegalForce:
LegalForce is a technology company helping a network of independent law firms improve access to law for millions of people worldwide through online and offline technology. LegalForce achieves this through rearchitecting legal processes, improving internal efficiency, and creating compelling online and offline operational and marketing collective law firms sharing the "LegalForce" brand.

Early adopters of IoT viewed it mainly as a different term for machine-to-machine connectivity or M2M. This is understandable since a prerequisite for any IoT solution is the ability to collect and aggregate device data, which is most often presented in a dashboard. The problem is that viewing data in a dashboard requires a human to interpret the results and take manual action, which doesn't scale to the needs of IoT.

Annapolis to Newport Race 2013 - Online registration now open
by Nathan Adamus on 2 Mar 2013
Annapolis to Newport Race 2013 Sarah Proctor
Annapolis to Newport Race 2013. Online registration is now open and the Notice of Race has been posted on the race's official website located at
Annapolis Newport Race
. 2013 marks the 34th running of the 475 mile biennial Annapolis-Newport Race run by the Annapolis Yacht Club (AYC) and New York Yacht Club (NYYC).
The Annapolis to Newport race links two of the nation's oldest seaports and is one of the most historic and well-known U.S. East Coast blue water races. The race provides a contrast between the country's largest estuary, the Chesapeake Bay, and the Atlantic Ocean, creating an extremely challenging racing triathlon that combines elements of grand prix sailing, ocean sailing, and cruising.
The course heads south for 120 miles from Annapolis to the Chesapeake Bay Bridge Tunnel, then east to the Chesapeake Light and hence northeast to Newport. After navigating the shallows and currents of the Bay, navigators have to decide if they want to sail the rhumbline to Newport, go in toward the shore, or head further into the ocean. Vessels then head up the coast to Block Island and eventually toward the entrance of the Narragansett Bay for the final approach to Castle Hill Light. For skippers and crews, this course requires many more tactical and strategic decisions than the other East Coast offshore races. These choices all offer the potential for gains or losses making it a very exciting and fun race to sail.
Community activist and Donnybrook owner Jim Muldoon has been a consistent fixture at the Annapolis to Newport race. Although his 2011 appearance was cut short when his 73-footer had a grounding issue near Norfolk, Virginia, his passion for the race has never waned. This year, he looks to wipe the slate clean and come back with a vengeance in his new Andrews 80. 'I have always enjoyed the Annapolis to Newport Race because it requires a diversity of sailing skills to deal with the tides, depths, and currents of the Chesapeake Bay combined with the challenges of ocean racing,' Muldoon said enthusiastically. 'Leaving from Annapolis, a great sailing town and ending up in Newport, another beautiful sailing home, is always a sailor's delight.'
Another local sailor Rick Born (J/120 Windborn) reiterated Muldoon's sentiments. 'I first ran the Annapolis to Newport race with Alan Harquail aboard Insight in 1991,' said Born. 'Since then, the same nucleus of crew has participated in twenty or so ocean races together. In fact, four of us from that first race on Insight will reunite for this year's race aboard Windborn. When you sail offshore, unique bonds and friendships are created. I would encourage anyone contemplating doing the race for the first time to go ahead and do it. Bringing your boat to Category 2 standards is a good exercise, and the race itself is either in protected waters or along the coast where there is comfort in knowing assistance is not far away. The Race Committee is supportive and the venues and social events are tops.'
Both Annapolis and Newport are great vacation destinations with lots of local attractions to enjoy. AYC and NYYC both welcome the participants to enjoy the full use of their clubhouses. Both offer outstanding dining and a relaxed atmosphere to gather with fellow competitors.
'The Annapolis to Newport Race is wonderful opportunity for sailors, crew, and family to come together and have a great time while acknowledging the significant achievement of participating in this event,' said Mark Myers, AYC Past Commodore.
In 2011, twelve three-boat teams represented the Annapolis Yacht Club, New Yacht Yacht Club, Tred Avon Yacht Club, Storm Trysail Club, Naval Academy Sailing Squadron, Naval Academy Offshore Sailing Team, Corinthian Yacht Club of Philadelphia, and Norddetscher Regatta Club from Germany, the first European team to ever compete for the City of Annapolis Team Race Trophy.
The course record is held by Joseph Dockery's Carrera, a Farr 60 skippered by Chris Larson, which finished the 2001 race in 42 hours, 58 minutes, and 12 seconds.
Besides the new awards introduced this year, boats that competed in the 2012 Newport to Bermuda Race are eligible for the Chelsea Clock Seafarer Trophy for combined performance in both races. Boats also entering the Marblehead-Halifax Race are eligible for the Chelsea Clock Mariner Trophy for combined performance in these races.
AYC Regatta Manager, Linda Ambrose, was enthusiastic about the potential for the 2013 race. 'This race has flown under the radar for a while, and this year we really want skippers, crew, and spectators to be immersed in the full experience that this venue has to offer,' Ambrose said.
In addition to the open divisions racing under IRC or PHRF, there is a start for the traditional cruiser or racer-cruisers, as well as a double-handed division. 2013 also marks the fourth time in the race's storied history where GPS transponders will be used to keep track of each boat so fans can follow their favorites as they make their way to Rhode Island.

Poet's story stirs tender emotions at Education Week
She had two miscarriages, then gave birth to a healthy son she nicknamed "Pen." When Browning's mother died, he fell into depression. Elizabeth had kept his stack of letters and a collection of 44 sonnets in which she expressed her feelings for him, even though he didn't think it right for poets to express personal feelings in their work. It was her sonnets, later published as "Sonnets of the Portuguese," that pulled him out of his depression.
The Brownings' time together in Italy was rich and fulfilling, but eventually came to an end when Elizabeth died in 1861. Wilcox described the intimate final moments of her life when she said farewell to her faithful husband.
"My Robert, my heaven, my beloved, our lives are held by God, God bless you, God bless you, God bless you," Wilcox quoted Elizabeth. "It is beautiful."
Wilcox said Browning had the chance to remarry but didn't because, "My heart and soul is buried in Florence."
With women weeping and the sound of sniffles resonating around the auditorium, Wilcox recounted how his late wife, Laurie, introduced him to Elizabeth Barrett Browning's poetry. "She became part of our relationship," he said.
Before Laurie died of cancer a few years ago, he whispered one of his favorite lines into her ear as she lay in a hospital bed.
"I love with the breath, smiles, tears of my life, — and, if God so choose I shall love thee better after death," he said.
Wilcox concluded by sharing several lessons he learned from Elizabeth's life and love story.

Yvonne Claire Rudellat MBE, Croix de Guerre, (née Cerneau, 11 January 1897 – 23 or 24 April 1945) was a member of the French Section of the Special Operations Executive (SOE) during World War II and was first female SOE-trained agent to go to France. After working with the Resistance for a year she was captured and died in Bergen-Belsen just after its liberation by the Allies.
Early life[edit]
Yvonne Rudellat was born Yvonne Claire Cerneau on 11 January 1897 at Maisons-Lafitte, near Paris, France. She was the second youngest of ten children. Her 8 older siblings had died in infancy; her younger brother Jean lived to age 18. Her father was a horse-dealer for the French Army and, when her domineering mother would allow it, Yvonne accompanied him on buying trips. After his death, Yvonne found it difficult to live with her mother, so she moved to London and got a job as a saleswoman at Galeries Lafayette then in Regent Street. However, her mother followed her and they lived together in Pimlico.[1]
At least partly to get away from her mother, Yvonne married 32-year-old Alex Rudellat on 16 October 1920. Alex was an Italian national, an ex-cavalryman and undercover agent in the Italian army, but now a head waiter at the Piccadilly Hotel, also in Regent Street. Unfortunately for Yvonne, Alex, following Italian tradition, invited his widowed mother-in-law to stay with them, which she did for a number of years before returning to France. The Rudellats had one child, Constance Jacqueline, who was born in 1922. They stayed at a number of addresses around Pimlico in houses bought by Alex as an investment; they let rooms not used by themselves. Latterly they occupied the basement at 146 Warwick Way, letting the rest of the rooms.[2] During this period a young Joan Littlewood let one of the rooms, while studying at RADA. [3]
In 1935 Yvonne and Alex separated after Yvonne had had an affair but Alex refused to divorce her and they continued jointly to bring up their daughter. Yvonne moved out and went into property management in her own right, but in 1938 she got into financial difficulties, sold up and moved back in with Alex, but in separate rooms, in the basement of 146 Warwick Way. With the outbreak of war, Constance joined the Auxiliary Territorial Service (ATS), met a sergeant in the Royal Army Pay Corps, Ronald Pepper, and married him on 23/12/1939. Ronald, too, moved into 146 Warwick Way.[4]
Involvement with SOE[edit]
Yvonne became quite depressed about the capitulation of France. She used to frequent a pâtisserie run by a long-term friend who was an ardent Gaullist in Baker Street. The pâtisserie was also frequented by personnel from nearby SOE headquarters and Yvonne developed the ambition that she should parachute into France to "do something for France". She would tell this to anyone she met.[5]
On the night of 16–17 April 1941, near the end of The Blitz, 146 Warwick Way was damaged beyond repair by bombing. The Rudellats lost everything except a cache of money Alex had buried in the basement. Soon after, Yvonne's latest love affair came to an end. She felt that she had nothing left to live for and decided to take her own life by jumping into the River Thames. At the last minute she changed her mind and decided to make something of her life. She enrolled at a Pitman's training school to improve her typing skills and through the school soon got a job as a secretary at Ebury Court, a small hotel and drinking club in Ebury Street.[6]
By chance, Ebury Court was also frequented by SOE personnel. She (and her ambition) came to the notice of Captain Selwyn Jepson, recruitment officer for the French (F) Section of SOE. Jepson interviewed her [7] and as a result she left Ebury Court and was sent to Wanborough Manor, near Guildford, for preliminary training, vetting and selection. She passed this and was accepted into SOE on 15 May 1942.[8]
She was then sent to Garramor, an SOE training establishment in a large house a little south of Morar in the West Highlands. In charge of instruction was Gavin Maxwell. There she trained on assault courses and learned the military aspects of being an agent such as the use of small arms and explosives. In order to gain protection under the Geneva Convention it was advisable for her to be a member of a uniformed organisation, so on 1 June 1942 she was commissioned as an ensign in the First Aid Nursing Yeomanry (FANY).[9]
She then went to Boarmans, one of 10 houses on the Beaulieu Estate in Hampshire that had been taken over by SOE. There she learnt how to live clandestinely in enemy territory and the skills required in her role as a courier, such as the use of ciphers, radio, and boîtes aux lettres for leaving messages securely. She also leant how to resist interrogation.[10]
She passed out on 21 June 1942; confusingly her report is in the name of Mademoiselle [sic] Rudellat. There was however disappointment for her: she was too old to learn to parachute, so that aspect of her ambition was not to be fulfilled.[11]
Wartime work[edit]
In France, Yvonne was to work in the Resistance under organiser Francis Suttill (code name Prosper) in his Physician network, although this was commonly called Prosper after its leader; many sources therefore refer to it as Physician/Prosper. Yvonne's cover name was Jacqueline Gautier: Jacqueline after her daughter, Gautier because it was a common French surname and would attract little attention. Her field name, used in wireless messages, was Suzanne. From then on, although she was to change her surname a number of times, she was always known as Jacqueline. Her cover story was that she was from Brest but had been bombed out. Following SOE practice, this was based as far as possible on the truth as she was able her to use her experience at Warwick Way to provide realistic details.[12]
Operation Sassafras saw Jacqueline leave by air for Gibraltar on 18 July 1942, accompanied by three male agents. Her cover name for the journey was Soaptree, so she was temporarily known as Jacqueline Viallet, viallet being the French for soaptree.[13] They were surprised by German seaplanes off Ushant and their Whitley aircraft suffered some damage but the pilot managed to out-fly the Germans. On 20 July they boarded Seadog, a felucca, which took them from Gibraltar to a rocky stretch of coast in the Golfe-Juan, a few kilometres east of Cannes.[14] They arrived on 30 July 1942,[15] to be met by L'Équipe Renaudie, a Resistance offshoot of The Carte Organisation named after its leader Roger Renaudie, and known to SOE as 'Capitaine Yvon'.[16] This made Jacqueline the first female SOE-trained agent to go to France.[17]
Jacqueline was taken to Cannes station where she boarded a train for Lyon. There she took a train to Paris. This involved crossing the Demarcation Line between occupied and Vichy France; because of an alert over escaped prisoners she had to be smuggled across hidden in the tender of the locomotive. From Paris she went on to Tours where, she joined the Monkeypuzzle circuit, run by Raymond Flower. She was involved in the management of drop zones for agents and supplies and in the distribution of the latter around the area, using a bicycle.[18]
Through Monkeypuzzle Jacqueline met Pierre Culioli. Because of animosity between Flowers and the two of them they started working together to the exclusion of Flowers and when Monkeypuzzle faded in the spring of 1943 they formed a circuit of their own, Réseau Adolphe (officially Réseau Sud-Touraine, a minor offshoot of Prosper circuit), with Suttill's blessing.[19] Both adopted the surname name Leclaire as a married couple was less conspicuous. They continued to organise parachute drops and to store and distribute arms and other supplies, pending the Allied invasion of France, which they expected in 1943. They established and trained other sub-circuits, the largest (with 80 members) being at Romorantin, now Romorantin-Lanthenay in the Loire Valley.[20] They also took part in minor acts of sabotage, mainly of trains and electric power lines.[21]
On 19 June 1943 Jacqueline and Pierre, now using Pierre's surname, Culioli, picked up 2 Canadian agents, John Kenneth Macalister and Frank Pickersgill who had parachuted in a few days earlier. They were to take the Canadians by car to Beaugency station and from there accompany them to Paris where they would meet Suttill. With them in the car they had a parcel containing incriminating material: wireless telegraphy equipment brought by the Canadians and unencrypted messages addressed to members of the Prosper circuit by their code names. The parcel was disguised as a Red Cross parcel addressed to a fictitious prisoner of war.
They were stopped at a road block in Dhuizon. The Germans ordered the two Canadians out of the back of the car; two Germans got in and ordered Pierre to drive to the mairie. There Jacqueline and Pierre passed inspection of their papers; the parcel was queried but not inspected. They were given a laissez passer. They waited in the car outside in case the Canadians also got free. There were shouts for them to come back, so they shot off, Germans followed in 3 cars. They came to a barricade near Braciuex (10 kilometres from Dhuizon) and drove straight at it. The Germans manning the block opened fire as they approached, shattering the windscreen. Jacqueline, who was looking out of the rear window for following Germans, was hit in back of head. Assuming Jacqueline was dead, Pierre, not having his suicide capsule, tried to kill himself by steering car into wall but it bounced off harmlessly. Pierre was uninjured but was subsequently shot in leg by a German while trying to get killed resisting arrest.[22]
Imprisonment and death[edit]
Jacqueline was not dead but seriously injured. She was taken to Blois hospital. There the surgeon, Dr Luzuy, diagnosed that the bullet had stopped short of fatally entering her brain but she could expect some loss of brain functionality. He decided to leave the bullet in her head.[23] Plans to rescue her from the hospital came to nought as she was moved from Blois to the Hôpital de la Pitié in Paris. The Germans attempted to interrogate her but learnt nothing because of her confusion, real or exaggerated. In late September she was transferred to Fresnes prison, though still gravely ill. There she was classified as NN (Nacht und Nebel), meaning that she was liable for deportation to Germany and then to vanish without trace. Meanwhile, the Germans gave up on interrogation and her health slowly improved.[24]
About the end of July 1944, Jacqueline was transferred to Fort de Romainville prison. There, confused as to what her surname was, she acted on the suggestion of another prisoner to adopt the common surname Gautier. By coincidence this was the name she had had on entering France, although it is unclear whether she remembered this.[25]
Later in the summer Jacqueline was transferred to the Ravensbrück concentration camp for women. There she wore a red triangle on her left sleeve, denoting that she was a political prisoner.[26] She was recognised at Ravensbrück by a group of women from the Physician/Prosper circuit whom she had worked with in France. They tried to make contact and offered help but she appeared not to know them saying she had a different name.[27]
In early 1945, probably through her confusion, Jacqueline got mixed up with a group being collected for transportation elsewhere and on 2 March 1945 she arrived at Bergen-Belsen concentration camp.[28][29] The camp was liberated by the Allies on 15 April 1945 but by this time there was a typhus epidemic, with 20,000 deaths a month. Jacqueline contracted typhus and dysentery and became very weak.[30] On 23 April, she was due to be moved a hospital set up adjacent to the camp. She died shortly after arrival there on 23 or 24 April. She was buried in a mass grave with 5000 others.[31]
It was impossible to keep records of all the dead, so Jacqueline's fate was not discovered until July 1946 when Vera Atkins, who was trying to find out what happened to missing SOE agents, traced her through a fellow Bergen-Belsen prisoner, who remembered her as Jacqueline Gautier.[32]
Honours and commemorations[edit]
Yvonne Rudellat was recommended for the Military Cross, probably at the instigation of Suttill when he visited London in April 1943.[33] She is the only female officially recorded as having merited it during World War II, but she was ineligible as at that time it was not awarded to women.[34][35] A citation in French dated 15 March 1945 recommended her for an OBE or George Medal "when she is liberated". She was later made an MBE, honorary because she was not a British citizen. Because the award is not given posthumously, it was backdated to 23 April 1945, the last day she was known to be alive.[36] She was also awarded the Croix de Guerre.[37]
Yvonne Rudellat is commemorated by an obelisk at Romorantin-Lanthenay, where she is one of 4 members of SOE to be listed.[38] She is also commemorated on a plaque at the Valençay SOE Memorial, along with 91 men and 12 other women who died for their country.[citation needed] In the UK she is commemorated on a marble plaque on the wall of St Paul's Church, Knightsbridge, London, one of 52 members of FANY who gave their lives in the war. She is also commemorated on the Brookwood Memorial as one of 3,500 "to whom war denied a known and honoured grave".[39]
Confusion over spelling of surname[edit]
Yvonne's married surname was Rudellat,[40] but her death certificate is in the name of Ruddelat.[41] The Ruddelat spelling was followed on the war memorial in Romoratin,[42] and also on the Brookwood Memorial until her daughter got it changed.[43] The citation for her MBE refers to her as Mademoiselle (sic) Ruddelat.[44] Other misspellings have also arisen, e.g. Rudelatt, Rudelat etc.[45]
Her alias, Gautier, adopted when she first went to France and readopted after her capture by the Germans, is sometimes spelt Gauthier.[46]

Familiarity isn't a bad thing
Like jebuspwns said, it bares a striking resemblance to Foamy... but I wouldn't dock it on that alone. The writing was still witty and satirical and got the job done just as well as the squirrel would've done.
Also, since the vocal effect is pretty much the same, I'll assume that you did want that resemblance to be drawn.
In truth, we've never heard of Foamy and Germaine before now.
We hope that future episodes will present a more clear distinction.
...can I say more?
That was funny :)
Keep em coming :D
loved it
Its a great idea for a series. But its already been done. Your video is just a toned down version of the Foamy and Germaine series. And for that you get no stars from me =/

I didn't want to lose this so I thought no better place to store it. Hope you enjoy them like I did.
Another wonderful word with no English equivalent is the Dutch "gezellig." The closest English translation is cozy, but that's not really it, either. Imagine the feeling of spending time with loved ones–everyone chatting, eating, drinking, relaxing–just having a good time together. That feeling is gezellig. The Dutch are very good at that.
I hate to be a stickler, but I must. At least one of these "words" (Koi No Yokan) isn't a word at all, but a phrase. And can you really say that English doesn't have an equivalent phrase, when you provide one as the definition — "the sense upon first meeting a person that the two of you are going to fall in love"?

There is an interesting post over at American Future about Bush in Bratislava that asks the following question:
It's often said that Americans have a short historical memory, that we are so preoccupied with the future that we forget the past. Isn't this criticism more applicable to the people of Western Europe?
As phrased I think the answer to this question is "no." If they question were rephrased as "Are the Europeans so concerned about the present that they forget the past and ignore the future?", then I could answer affirmatively.
I hope Bush has had a better time in Bratislava than a buddy and I did back in 1992. We walked all over town but couldn't find a place to spend the night. Ah well, at least Bratislava offered some of the best girl watching in Europe. I can't remember a place that had quite so many drop dead gorgeous women wandering around. Bush probably didn't get a chance to notice any of that. What a shame.

The deluge over the Nelson region coupled with a high tide saw waves crashing over cars in Rocks Rd and the sea surge across the road up to the boundary of homes in Monaco.
Yesterday's heavy rain was a contrast to two weeks ago when the Tasman District and Nelson City councils were urging water conservation because of the dry conditions.
The Tasman District Council was warning of water restrictions being introduced, with the Dry Weather Taskforce to review the situation on Tuesday. Rural fire authorities were also warning of the high fire risk.
Now the region has had a thorough soaking.
The high tide and wild weather drove the sea over the road at Pohara in Golden Bay. At Monaco it came to the boundary of homes in Martin St, right up to their letter boxes, but the postie still got through.
Martin St resident David Barnes said it had been windy earlier in the morning but by noon, when there was a more than four-metre high tide, it was calmer which limited the surge.
There was a lot of debris on the road which a city council sweeper quickly cleared, and he was expecting the same today, he said.
On State Highway 6 at Rocks Rd, traffic slowed and one car stalled for several minutes as waves crashed over the road. Vehicles also swerved to avoid debris washed down from the cliffs. A NZ Transport Agency spokesman said its contractor was on site monitoring the situation and it was not considered necessary to close the road.
The Snelder family, on holiday from Christchurch, were walking along the waterfront road when the waves came over the footpath so they turned back.
Mum Sarah Snelder said it hadn't put them off "sunny Nelson" and they were staying for a couple more weeks. "We're heading to Totaranui and hoping the weather improves."
Nelson finished the year with 2427.2 hours of sunshine recorded, close to the average 2451.6 hours, according to the Nelson Weather Service at Stoke.
Final figures for centres around the country have not been released but Nelson was not expected to top the sunshine stakes this time.
Nelson's rainfall for the year totalled 1037.1mm, which is above the average 940.9mm.
Nelson Weather Service consultant John Mathieson said a 2013 mean air temperature could not be established for Stoke because the main temperature screen was vandalised in June.
More rain was expected overnight, with heavy falls but the showers were predicted to clear from tomorrow morning.
"Unreal" winds yesterday ripped through parts of the South Island, tipping over a caravan and felling power poles.
The winds reached speeds of up to 140kmh in the Marlborough Sounds and up to 120kmh at Mount Hutt yesterday, tipping over a caravan near Kaikoura, prompting the partial evacuation of a motorcamp in Havelock and cutting power to about 600 homes in Selwyn district.
The caravan crash was reported near Hapuku, about 14km north of Kaikoura on State Highway 1, at 1.16pm yesterday. The Fire Service said the caravan was extensively damaged .
The high winds also forced up to 40 families from the community-run Havelock Motor Camp yesterday morning.
Manager Neville Pickering said "unbelievable" gusts hit the small Marlborough town about 4am, causing havoc for campers.
Meanwhile, a howling deluge in Wellington yesterday grounded flights, caused power outages, downed trees, and blocked roads.
