In his second book, Adam Carolla - chart-topping podcaster and author of New York Times best seller In Fifty Years We'll All Be Chicks - reveals all the stories behind how he came to be the angry middle-aged man he is today.
Funnyman Adam Carolla is known for two things: hilarious rants about things that drive him crazy and personal stories about everything from his hardscrabble childhood to his slacker friends to the hypocrisy of Hollywood. He tackled rants in his first book, and now he tells his best stories and debuts some never-before-heard tales as well.
Organized by the myriad "dumps" Carolla called home as a child - through the flophouse apartments he rented in his 20s, up to the homes he personally renovated after achieving success in Hollywood - the anecdotes here follow Adam's journey and the hilarious pitfalls along the way.
Adam Carolla started broke and blue collar and has now been on the Hollywood scene for over 15 years. Yet he never lost his underdog demeanor. He's still connected to the working class guy he once was, and delivers a raw and edgy, fish-out-of-water take on the world in which he lives (but with which he mostly disagrees), telling all the stories, no matter who he offends - family, friends or the famous.
©2012 Adam Carolla (P)2012 Random House Audio
"Must have for Ace fans"
The chapter on Ray was by far my favorite part but the whole book was hilarious. Awesome storytelling and all the best tangents you would expect from Adam Carolla.
"Side-splitting hilarious!"
Yes! Why? Because it is not only funny but it is true and real honest humor. Blunt and to the point (except for the tangents.. but where would we be without the tangents?) Adam Carolla offers a sincere, open, almost voyeur view of his life. Each chapter takes you on a journey through time encased in the setting of the house he was living at the time. Brutally honest about everyone and everything involved (including himself), it makes for a listen worth listening to over and over. Or maybe that is just me.. but quite frankly if it keeps you smiling.. who cares! A staple in my ipod for all those moments when you really just need to shut out the loud mouth in the doctors waiting room to when the nurse is drawing so much blood you just need to get in a positive spot otherwise you will pass out! No matter where I turn it on, it brings an immediate smile, laugh, and frequently tears of laughter. Read by the author himself, if you are looking for comic relief, look no further... this may not be Taco Bell Material but it will ring your humor bell!
The book is stories based on Adam's life. Of course there are other characters and some of them quite interesting but Adam's story stands alone as an inspiration to overcoming any obstacle placed in front of you. Thanks Adam
Read personally by Adam, his blunt and straight-shooting style makes for a ride one could only compare to 'Mr. Toad's Wild Ride' meets 'Willy Wonka' meets 'Benny Hill'. While reading the book is no doubt a humorous experience, listening to it.. and the emphasis placed on certain words or just the tangents alone, offer a vivid picture into true American Life. Great example of "We can pick our friends but we can't pick our relatives".
Warning: This book will make you laugh so hard you will be crying. In addition, it may cause melting to the floor in a pool of hysterical laughter while everyone else around you are still taking life too seriously.
The humor contained in this audio book may be considered offensive to some. If you are not familiar with who Adam Carolla is.. educate yourself first as this may not be quite what you are expecting.
"Funny as hell get it on!"
It made me laugh so hard. True carolla fashion but that's what made him who he is
""It's a hit! for the Ace Man"... snifff"
Highly recommend for a friend and actually bought a couple to give to friends
Adams unique ability to interpret common, everyday experiences and put his own logical spin on those events.
The stories with Ray.
The best thus far
Chapter 7. I damned near wrecked my truck i was laughing so hard. Seriously
You will laugh your ass off!
Having Adam narrate this book makes the stories that much better. I enjoyed this book better than his previous one. Both books are great though
Avid audiobook addict!
"Very funny book read by a master of storytelling"
The only criticism is that if you've been listening to Adam for a while then you'll have already heard the majority of the stories in this book.
"Great performance and listen"
I loved the honesty. His words painted vivid images in my head some were good and others were disturbing. Carolla tells a great story and this book is crammed with them.
Greg Fitzsimmon's book "Dear Mrs. Fitzsimmons" because both authors let it all hang out. They spoke frankly about growing up and how they felt.
He digresses often and brings in Ray Oldhoffer and Dr. Drew to help the stories along.
No it's damn near 8 hours.
"Very funny stuff, hilariously read by Carolla"
Really funny stuff all the way through. Anyone turned off by crude anecdotes of guys acting immaturely won't care for it, but it's unlikely that person would be reading a book by Carolla anyway. He works some truly insightful thoughts about parenting and personal responsibility along the way, but mostly it's just plain funny.
If there's a caveat, it's that Carolla freely admits that the audiobook is missing material from the print version (though it also has plenty of bonus material you won't find in the print version). That's no big knock on the audio--it's plenty hilarious as is--but I'd love an unabridged option that has all the material in one place. It does feel a bit like double-dipping to have two different versions out there.
But that's a minor issue. This audiobook is a ton of fun, and Carolla performing it himself makes all the difference. It's also fun to hear bits with his buddies Ray and Dr. Drew interspersed between the stories. With eight solid hours of candid hilarity, Not Taco Bell Material is a great deal for one Audible credit.
"Very entertaining"
Adam has genuine stories that are hilarious that remind me of my time growing up. If you grew up in the 80s, you can definitely relate to this. Not that this is a period piece but he has hilarious "definitions" where he describes "pay phones" for those who are under 25,lol.
"Excellent and very funny!"
I loved this audio book! It is a paragon of audio books. Adam Carolla narrating this himself made the book very funny. I imagine this book is funny to read but listening to Adam himself tell his story makes it that much funnier. I laughed out loud many times and sometimes had to rewind because I missed something while I was laughing. Interviewing his friend Ray and Dr. Drew was a nice addition.

Housing NZ to build for sale
Should Housing NZ build homes for private sale?
Relevant offers
The Government will build affordable homes for private sale for the first time in response to the Christchurch housing shortage.
Housing New Zealand plans to link with a private developer to build a mix of social housing and affordable homes for sale on five Christchurch sites.
It hopes to pilot the new approach with a $9 million development in Manchester St on the edge of the city centre.
It is seeking expressions of interest from developers and designer teams to build between 20 and 30 one and two-bedroom units.
Housing New Zealand earthquake recovery team leader Andrew Booker said he hoped the new homes would ease housing shortages in Christchurch.
"This is in direct response to the housing issues in Christchurch from a social housing and affordable housing point of view across the board," he said.
"If we did this on a large scale it would certainly help.
"This is not just about Manchester St; this is about looking differently at the residential property that the corporation has - the form of the building and the type of tenure.
"We need to move to a mixed-tenure model."
The Manchester St development would include a mix of Housing New Zealand units, affordable rental apartments available through social agencies and affordable housing for private sale.
"We want this to be a benchmark for developments throughout the country," Booker said.
"It is a demonstration site for what we think should happen in the future."
Housing New Zealand plans to build between 200 and 350 houses in Christchurch over the next 18 months at a cost of between $60m and $90m.
Booker said 100 of those homes might not be owned by Housing New Zealand.
Housing New Zealand is experimenting with foundation techniques for the 450 properties it owns on technical category 3 land.
It is working with Arrow International and Southern Response to test different techniques on about 20 properties it owns. The findings will be made public to assist the rebuild.
The affordable housing initiative has been welcomed by Tenants Protection Association spokeswoman Helen Gatonyi.
"This is the way of the future and I think it is a really good first step," she said. "You need a diverse community, not just all social housing in one block."
Housing New Zealand's 6000 properties in Christchurch took a hit in the Canterbury earthquakes.
It had 750 vacant, quake-damaged properties, but 215 of those are in the residential red zone and 212 more have been repaired.

We paid an extra $98 pp for "Main Cabin Extra" seats with more legroom on our DFW to LHR American Airlines flight. This will also entitle us to Group 1 boarding.
Report Abuse
I've been able to secure emergency row exit seats on UAL on numerous trips to Europe by paying an additional fee. Well worth the money considering we're 6'2 and 6'4.
Report Abuse
I usually buy Economy Plus seats on United. My only beef is I almost always end up with a last boarding group and then can't find a place to put my carry-on. If I pay extra for the seat, I shouldn't have to deal with that.
I've also had issues when they have changed planes, or a delay has caused a rebooking. It's hard to get refunded for the extra $ paid for the seat I ended up not getting. Annoying how they collect change fees on the spot, unless it's THEM changing!
Report Abuse
I'm lucky as most of my flying is scheduled more in advance than it used to be. Thus I get my favorite, an exit row, 99% of the time (not counting the 50% of the flights or so that I get upgraded to F).
Report Abuse
One of the things that went away with the United/Continental merger was Premier Silver access too the Economy Plus seats upon booking. Now it has to be an upgrade or you have have to pay for them unless you are Premier Gold of higher. Bah.
Report Abuse
Flying FLL-NYC I flew United, paid $47 for the Extra Room seat and was shocked they wanted $49 additional to NOT be in group 5 boarding. So $96 total for both perks. Every other airline (and I personally checked) includes priority boarding when you purchase a premium seat AND in the FLL-NYC market, the price for both on the other airlines is approx $50.
United says All aisle seats board in group 5 but that's not true.. If you are an aisle seat traveling with a middle or window seat - then all can board together in the earlier group.
In my route FLL-NYC, I have many choices and I will not choose United again until they come to their senses. If they want to sell the perks separate, the price needs to substantially come down.
Report Abuse
FYI.. It seems American recently changed their policy. I am now told MCE & Premium seats are non-refundable if you change or cancel your flight. Previously, I had a choice plus ticket and received a refund for the main cabin extra seat when I made a change.

Hi, sorry but I don't really know any audiologists in Geneva. Been there a couple of times but not to visit any audiologistes ;)
Good luck
Hi everyone! just found this thread! I'm a member in the Léman area (I live in Coppet, Vaud)
Happy to see there are actually a few Swiss members on head-fi ^^, its not easy being in personal audio in this country...
For the ear impressions, I don't know any audiologists in the area, sorry. But I've been wondering, wouldn't shops like Amplifon do impressions? they specialize in hearing aid and such.
Personally, I ordered a kit online and asked a friend to help me with the impressions.
Welcome! I ended up going to Gisele Flowers, who is recommended by Noble and JH Audio, when I was in London for work.
The Noble K10s.
Oh wow! I'm so jealous!
I finally got to try the universal K10 in Canjam London this summer, and I was seriously blown away! It has exactly the kind of sound I love and look for in iems.
It actually reminds me of my CE6E but with a fuller sound and better separation.
Unfortunately the K10s are a bit over my budget for now.
Hope you enjoy them!

ViewSonic PJD6381 projector
ViewSonic's latest portable projector can project 3D images when hooked up to an appropriately equipped PC
- Good brightness and colour for its size, short throw ratio, 3D!
- Loud fan
Bottom Line
ViewSonic's PJD6381 most intriguing feature is the ability to hook up a PC with a compatible graphics card and use the projector's 3D mode. It's also suitable to watching movies thanks to its acceptable contrast ratio and frame rate smoothing. In addition, the PJD6381 has the qualities you want from a portable business projector: high brightness and a reasonable size.
Price$ 1,599.00 (AUD)
Best Deals (Selling at 1 store)
Special Offers
The ViewSonic PJD6381 projector is versatile enough to be used in a variety of situations thanks to its brightness level of 2700 lumens. Most interestingly, however, the ViewSonic PJD6381 can be used to project 3D images when hooked up to a PC with a compatible GeForce 8 series (or higher) graphics card.
However, you need to purchase a special pair of stereoscopic glasses and a transmitter for the system to work. We found the feature added an extra level of depth and immersion to pictures, movies and 3D games.
The PJD6381 doesn't look particularly stylish; it's similar to most other ViewSonic projectors, such as the PJD5351 and the PJ760. Its body seems sturdy and strong.
The projector has a reasonable range of inputs. Dual VGA inputs make switching between two laptops for a presentation easy, while S-Video and composite connectors let you use a wide range of other devices. A VGA output allows a second projector or a monitor to be connected. We would have liked to see DVI or HDMI, but they're not crucial for this market segment.
We ran the ViewSonic PJD6381 projector through a battery of tests in a dark room, a room lit by daylight and a large office with fluorescent lighting. The projector stood up well in all these conditions, though we noticed a distinct loss of contrast and colour vibrancy during our daylight tests. Its 120Hz frame rate meant motion was consistently smooth, although a few strange artifacts appeared during fast panning shots. The projector has a 3500:1 contrast ratio, which is high enough for movie watching (in optimum conditions), and a 1024x768 native resolution.
Its short throw means this projector will most likely be set up close to the projection surface. Because the exhaust fans are at the rear, however, users may find their presentations disrupted. The exhaust noise is not especially loud, but our review sample had a high-pitched tone to it that was distracting in an otherwise silent room.
ViewSonic's PJD6381 projector has 6000 hour lamp life, but its power consumption is not so frugal at 305 Watts during regular use. While this is unlikely to cause a bump in a large business' power bill, be aware that this model's power consumption is similar to running two 46in Samsung UA46B7100 LED televisions.

Kathy Cassidy
First impression on unpacking the Q702 test unit was the solid feel and clean, minimalist styling.
Anthony Grifoni
For work use, Microsoft Word and Excel programs pre-installed on the device are adequate for preparing short documents.
Steph Mundell
The Fujitsu LifeBook UH574 allowed for great mobility without being obnoxiously heavy or clunky. Its twelve hours of battery life did not disappoint.
Andrew Mitsi
The screen was particularly good. It is bright and visible from most angles, however heat is an issue, particularly around the Windows button on the front, and on the back where the battery housing is located.
Simon Harriott
My first impression after unboxing the Q702 is that it is a nice looking unit. Styling is somewhat minimalist but very effective. The tablet part, once detached, has a nice weight, and no buttons or switches are located in awkward or intrusive positions.

I am new at photography. Well that is relative to those who have been doing this for 30 years. I became hooked when digital cameras began to really work like film cameras. I think in many respects they do as good if not better of a job. They are quicker for sure. I am ducking from all of the rocks being thrown at me now. I love sports photography the best as I love sports.

1. Field of the Invention
This invention relates to portable structures and particularly multi-level portable structures.
2. Description of Related Art
Tents have been used for centuries as temporary shelters for travelers or for semi-permanent housing units in warmer climates. Tents have been designed in many styles and with many features. However, virtually all tents have been designed as single-story structures. This makes living in tents uncomfortable at best and miserable at worst. All sleeping, eating and cooking must be carried out at the same level.
The invention is a large multi-level tent that has an interior divided into two levels. A platform system is included within the tent to divide it into the levels. The tent is built up around the platform. The tent has an outer covering made of canvas and a set of frame elements that make assembly of the tent easy. The tent is a ľ sphere that is supported by shaped tubes, a set of braces, and a top band.
The platform is a combination of wood, metal and plastic. Polyvinylchloride (PVC) posts are used to secure the platform to the ground. They have an auger base to anchor then securely. Each post extend upward to the full desired height for a two level living space. Metal brackets are secured to the vertical posts at each floor location. These brackets hold 2×4 horizontal wooden frame members. The frame members are reinforced with additional wood framing, similar to deck construction. Each deck is then covered with plywood sheathing to form a "floor" surface.
After the platform is built, the tent is constructed around it. The tent has a number of lower frame elements, a number of vertical elements and a top ring. The lower frame elements are joined in a circle. The vertical elements are attached to the lower frame elements at the connection joints. These vertical elements are secured by the top ring to form a semi-spherical frame. This frame is covered by a canvas outer covering that is attached to all the tent frame elements. Stakes are used to secure the tent to the ground. The tent has openings for doors and ventilation. The top ring is also fitted with a cover to prevent water from entering the tent.
Once assembled, the structure has two living levels. The upper level can be used for sleeping and the lower level can be used for living. In this way, bedding and other supplies do not have to be moved or stored while doing different activities.
Thus, this tent system makes a comfortable long term camp for doing fieldwork of any kind.

Referring now to FIG. 1, the tent 1 and platform 2 are shown. In the preferred embodiment, the tent has an overall diameter of 16 feet and a height of 10 feet. The internal platform is 12 feet long by 8 feet wide. The lower floor 3 of the platform is designed to lie about 1 foot above the ground. The upper floor 4 of the platform is designed to be five feet above the top of the lower floor 3.
FIG. 2 shows the tent fully assembled and closed. The platform 2 is entirely within this tent structure.
The platform is installed using four vertical members 5. FIG. 3 shows one form of the vertical members. Each vertical member has a number of components. The bottom 6 of each vertical member 5 has an auger portion 7. This portion is used to screw the vertical member into the ground. In the preferred embodiment, the auger portion 7 is approximately 1 foot long. The vertical members are made of 4-inch pipe. In the preferred embodiment, the vertical members are made of schedule 40 Polyvinylchloride (PVC) pipe. A number of holes are drilled in this pipe. A lower set of holes 8 and an upper set of holes 9 are used to secure the floor brackets (discussed below). A center hole 10 is used to pass a rod through. The rod is used to help screw the vertical member into the ground.
FIG. 3a shows an alternative form of the vertical member 5 and auger portion 7. Here, the vertical member and auger portion are made in two pieces. The auger portion has a set of female threads 7 b and the vertical member 5 has a set of male threads 7 a. In this way, the two parts can be installed separately. In this design, the center hole 10 is relocated to the auger portion 5 as shown. Four mounting holes 6 a are provided around the perimeter of the lower portion of the vertical member 6 as shown.
FIG. 4 shows the vertical member 6 with a base plate 11 placed on the bottom. This plate covers the auger portion and provides some lateral stability for the vertical members. Two floor brackets 12 are used on each vertical member. The floor brackets are made of lightweight metal. Each floor bracket has two triangular mounting plates 13. FIG. 5 shows a top view of one mounting plate 13. The two plates 13 are separated by a spacer 14. The spacer has a diameter slightly larger than the diameter of the vertical member. FIG. 6 shows the spacer 14. Note too that the mounting plates have central holes 15 of the same size as the spacer. The spacer is designed to provide room for a standard 2×4 piece of dimensional lumber. The floor brackets are place over the top of the vertical member and are slid down until they align with the holes 8 or 9. Once aligned with the proper sets of holes, the floor brackets are bolted to the vertical member using fasteners common to the art.
With the threaded auger and vertical members, the base plate 11 can be installed with a hole to allow the auger and vertical member to be screwed together. Alternatively, The base plate 11 a of FIG. 4b may be used. Here, two wooden blocks 11 b are attached to the base plate 11 a as shown. The auger and vertical member fit over the blocks as shown. Once in place the auger and vertical member can be secured to the blocks using the mounting holes 10 for the auger and 6 b for the vertical member 5. In this way, it is possible to assemble the platform without the augers.
The platform requires four vertical members set in a rectangular pattern. Once the first vertical member is placed, the other members are positioned according to the steps discussed below. After the vertical members are in place, the horizontal framing can be added. This framing used standard 2×4 lumber. As shown in FIG. 5, the floor bracket plates have a number of holes 16 formed in them. These holes are used to secure the 2×4 lumber to the floor brackets. Nails or similar fasteners may be used to secure them in place. FIG. 7 shows how the 2×4s 20 and 21 are placed to align in the brackets without having to miter or cut the ends.
FIG. 8 shows the framework and the vertical members. The outer 2×4s, 20, 21, 22, and 23 are placed as shown. Note how the holes 16 align with the 2×4s. Once the perimeter has been framed, addition joists 24 are placed within the frame as shown and secured with fasteners to the perimeter frame. The frame is then covered with plywood sheeting 25. The plywood ends are notched to fit around the vertical members as shown. Typically, the plywood is cut prior to locating the unit in the field.
Both the lower and upper floors are built in the same manner. Once the platform is finished, the outer tent can be built.
The tent portion is assembled from a number of components. FIGS. 9-20 show the tent's structural components the tent framework components. The base of the tent is formed using a number of lower frame brace 30. FIG. 16 shows a top view of a lower frame brace 30. In the preferred embodiment, 10 of the braces 30 are used. Each frame brace 30 has a pair of eyebolts 31 secured in the ends of the brace 30 as shown. The brace is a square piece of wood. In the preferred embodiment, each brace is five feet long from eyebolt center to eyebolt center and made from 2×2 dimensional lumber. At the center of each brace is a hole 32. The hole 32 is approximately ˝-inch in diameter. However, the hole 32 can be any reasonable size. The holes 32 are used for stakes 34, shown in FIG. 13. FIG. 14 shows the placement of the stakes 34 in the holes 32. This procedure is also described in more detail below. Finally, each brace 30 has a small strip of VELCRO 39, a hook and loop fastener, attached to one side of the outer face of the brace as shown.
The tent frame has a number of bent poles 35. The poles are shown in FIG. 15. The poles may be made of 1-inch tubing, or may be lighter weight flexible tubing. The bent poles 35 are approximately 14 feet long. As discussed below, one end of the poles fits in the eyebolts 31 at the base of the tent. Two holes 36 are provided to secure the poles to the lower tent frame braces. This procedure is discussed below. The tops of the poles 35 have a hole 37 that is used to secure the pole into a band 40, as shown in FIG. 15. The band 40, in the preferred embodiment is metal. The band 40 is approximately 2 feet long and 2 inches wide. A number of holes 41, corresponding to the number of poles, are cut into the band as shown. The band is formed into a circle, as shown. The poles 35 pass through the holes 41. Pins 42 are placed through the holes 37 to secure the tops of the poles within the band 40. See FIG. 9.
The tent material is made of canvas or other waterproof material. The tent wall 50 is made up of several tent panels 51. The tent panels 51 have similar characteristics, except for the first and last panels. All the panels are sewn together except for the first and last panels, where one end of those panels are left open to allow the tent material to be placed over the frame. FIG. 17 shows the outer surface of the first panel 51 a . This panel is generally shaped as shown. On the right side, a strip of VELCRO 52, a hook and loop fastener is attached as shown. At the top, a second loop of VELCRO 53 is attached as shown. Two pairs of grommets 55 are placed at the bottom corners as shown. Finally, a number of ties 56 are placed on the right side of the first panel as shown. The second panel is then sewn to the left side of the first panel (from the perspective of the outside of the panel as shown in FIG. 17). FIG. 18 shows the inside face of the first panel 51 a . This face has a strip of VELCRO 57 as shown. All of the remaining panels, with the exception of the last panel, have the same shape as the first panel. All the intermediate panels have a strip of VELCRO 53 secured to the outer face at the top and a second strip of VELCRO 57 at the bottom of the inner face. FIG. 19 shows the inner face of the last panel 51 b . This panel is sewn to the last intermediate panel on one side 60. On the other side, are strips of VELCRO 61 as shown. This panel has a small slit 62 cut into the outer edge as shown. Like the other panels, this panel also has the two pairs of grommets 55 and an outer strip of VELCRO 53.
FIG. 20 is an inner view of a top cap 70 that is used to cover the ring 40. The top cap 70 has a continuous strip of VELCRO 71 within the inner perimeter. This strip 71 engages with the VELCRO strips 53 at the top of the tent panels to seal the top of the tent.
Referring now to FIGS. 10-12, the tent and platform are installed as follows: first, find a level ground surface. Then position the first corner post and screw it into the ground to a one-foot depth. Use a level to make sure the post is plumb. Place a platform bracket on the post and measure for the second support post location. At that location, screw in the second post. Repeat this procedure for the remaining posts, placing the posts in a rectangular pattern. Once the posts are set and plumb, secure the platform brackets to the posts using screws, nuts, bolts or other common fasteners. Next, secure the vertical and horizontal 2×4 frame members for the lower platform, securing them to the platform brackets. Once these are secure, add joists at 16 inches on center. Next place a sheet of plywood on the lower platform and secure it to the framework. Then, install a second set of platform brackets at the top of the vertical 2×4 members. Repeat the placement of horizontal members and joists, cover the top platform with plywood, and secure it to the joists as before. FIG. 8 shows this assembly.
Once the platform is completed, place the tent braces in a circle. The diameter of the preferred embodiment is sixteen feet. The platform is in the center of the circle. Assemble four vertical tent tubes and the top band on the top platform. The tubes are positioned at 90-degree increments and are installed on the top band with hardware. See FIG. 10. The bottom end of each tube is placed through two of the eyebolts found at the ends of the braces. In this way, the braces are interlocked with the tubes. Temporarily secure the tubes to the braces using a nail 100 as shown. This step is shown in FIG. 10. Install the remaining braces using the same techniques. Tie the end of the first panel of rolled canvas tent material to the top band, the middle of one tube and the bottom of the same tube. See FIG. 11. Proceed to unroll the canvas around the frame. At each tube position, replace the nail with a "U" bolt that is placed through grommets 55 in the canvas. As shown in FIG. 13, a "U" bolt 70 then passed through two holes 36 in the tube (one above the eyebolts 31 and one below). The "U" bolts are secured with nuts 75 and lock washers 75. See FIG. 12. The VELCRO strips 57 are secured to the VELCRO strips 39 on the frame braces, as each panel is unrolled. When the entire canvas is unrolled, the last panel is mated with the first panel using the VELCRO strips, as discussed above. Finally, the tent cap is secured over the ring to seal the tent and make it weather tight.
Once the canvas is secured to the frame, a stake is driven through holes in each of the braces to secure the tent to the ground. The tent is then ready to use.
The present disclosure should not be construed in any limited sense other than that limited by the scope of the claims having regard to the teachings herein and the prior art being apparent with the preferred form of the invention disclosed herein and which reveals details of structure of a preferred form necessary for a better understanding of the invention and may be subject to change by skilled persons within the scope of the invention without departing from the concept thereof.

McCaw tops list of sporting greats
Related Links
Relevant offers
New Zealand can be proud of its many inspirational sports stars, especially All Black great, Richie McCaw.
When you go over Richie McCaw's stats you will be shocked. Over 100 games for the All Blacks, winning close to 90 per cent of them. He has won IRB Player of the Year three times. He has been New Zealand Player of the Year four times. He has won numerous Super Rugby titles, Bledisloe Cups, Tri-Nations and now the World Cup as captain. His resume is unbelievable.
To top it off he's a very clean player. He doesn't retaliate or play dirty. He plays to the very limit and gives 100 per cent in all his games. He can play with a broken foot, a damaged city, the weight of a nation and the burden of the captaincy in the heat of any battle. He is unflappable.
He is generous in winning and gracious in defeat, he pays tribute to his players and coaches and has never been caught up in any controversy - no drinking binges, no idiotic rants, no snide comments - he's just a humble, grateful young man who loves nothing more than playing rugby to his best ability and representing his country.
There are many sports people around like him, Dan Carter, Conrad Smith, Kieran Read, Valerie Adams, Sophie Pascoe, Mahe Drysdale, Mark Todd, Michael Jones (another all time great), Hamish Carter, Sarah Ulmer, Sir Richard Hadlee, Sarah Walker, Lisa Carrington (maybe a bit early), Irene Van Dyke and everyone from the Silver Ferns.
These guys and girls are truly inspirational they all seem to have this ability to stay out of trouble and give and give and give.
It's great to be a Kiwi. I hope you all have a great rest and come back stronger. Go Mahe - win two golds, you can do it.

Christopher Federline Lawsuit Against Britney Spears Is a Hoax
Shortly after story about love triangle between Kevin Federline, Britney Spears and his brother Christopher was picked up by various media outlets following a lawsuit purportedly filed by Chris, it's revealed that the whole thing is made up. The legal papers were filed by an unrelated felon named Jonathan Lee Riches.
The Smoking Gun reported the culprit was a serial litigator who has filed an array of frivolous lawsuits involving public figures like Justin Bieber and Brad Pitt. The 35-year-old also recently posed as the uncle of Adam Lanza, the gunman in Sandy Hook Elementary School shooting. He was taken back to jail for probation violations.
Riches fooled many when he filed a lawsuit against Bieber, posing as Selena Gomez's father and accusing the Canadian singer of borrowing money for abortion and stealing for "penis enlargement." He once also filed legal papers under the name Jonathan Jolie, making up story about being assaulted by Angelina Jolie's fiance.
In the Spears lawsuit, Riches created a tale about the Southern Belle stealing his credit card to buy $4,569 worth of comic books for her sons, Sean and Jayden. Posing as Kevin's brother, he said in the lawsuit that the mother of two blackmailed him and threatened to reveal their secret affair to public when he tried to confront her.
"I'm the true father of Sean Preston, not Kevin," he stated. "I do confess I slept with Britney, and I am the true father, but the public does not need to know. I seek a restraining order from Britney Spears. She is out of control and a maniac."

"The decision to go into therapy is not an easy one. As an advanced practice psychiatric nurse with 20+ years of experience, I have found that by providing a safe, supportive, and caring atmosphere, my clients can express their thoughts and feelings, understand themselves better, and feel empowered to make changes in their lives. As a nurse psychotherapist, I integrate an understanding of my clients' medical, family, social, and emotional issues to help them attain their optimal level of mental health. I am also able to prescribe medication to facilitate treatment of mood disorders and anxiety affecting my clients."
"Hello and thank you for visiting our site at Psychology Today. My name is Jay Messina clinical director at Summit Neurotherapy. Our services provide neurofeedback, sometimes referred to as EEG biofeedback. We also use traditional biofeedback methods, cognitive-behavioral therapy and stress management techniques. Our treatment philosophy is to assist the person to grow and thrive, resolve problems and overcome life hurdles with continuing growth."
"I will understand and help you resolve your issues and challenges; I am an experienced, caring and well-trained Ph.D. psychologist. I treat children, teenagers and adults as well as couples and families."
"I have been in private practice in Westfield since 1995 with an emphasis on adolescents and adults in need of help coping with life's stressors. These stressors include, but are certainly not limited to depression and anxiety, developmental issues,school anxiety and school refusal, women's issues, parenting difficulties and social issues to name a few. Women in particular often cope with a great deal of stress related to work, family,loss and from time to time, serious illness. These strains can become overwhelming and coping may become difficult and sometimes impossible to do alone."
"re:therapy provides a warm, compassionate environment in which to share and move toward increased balance and potential. re:new & re:connect: If your goal is to improve communication within family or personal relationships we will work collaboratively to identify problems & solutions for effective communication. re:create: If life transitions are causing distress, we can work together help realize improved self-awareness & self-motivation. re:discover your potential: Issues with addiction, dual-diagnosis and codependency: I am experienced in inpatient & outpatient substance abuse and psychiatric settings and will work with you to establish healthy, effective coping skills for maintaining recovery."
"I specialize in working with adults who have experienced trauma of various kinds (illness, accidents, assault, loss) in childhood or adulthood. I have worked for many years with women and men who have experienced childhood sexual, physical or emotional abuse, or adult sexual assault. Recurring thoughts and images about the trauma, or less conscious feelings such as fear and worthlessness, or difficulties letting anyone get close, can persist, even if it happened long ago. My focus in therapy is to help you work through these experiences so they no longer prevent you from living more fully in your present life."
"I am a licensed clinical psychologist with over 20 years of experience treating adults and adolescents with a variety of problems including depression, anxiety, eating disorders, marital difficulties and other interpersonal challenges. I strive to help people find satisfaction in their careers, relationships and other aspects of their lifestyles. I believe that the therapeutic process can provide insight into an individual's problems and help them find coping strategies to maximize their sense of well-being."
"Truth is essential to our mental integrity. Full access to the "truths" embedded in our personal stories and the emotions, beliefs and healthy impulses they engender make us "whole". They form the basis of our identity, resilience, self-worth; our very well being. The problem: our "truths" sometimes appear overwhelmingly painful, disheartening and/or terrifying, particularly if safe/trustworthy people haven't been available to help. In order to cope, real feelings are buried, "looking good" facades created and the past (consciously) ignored. Unfortunately, dissociating these truths creates a life that lacks choice and is instead stubbornly ruled by the past."
"Stress, anxiety and depression, relationship conflicts, career difficulties, or substance abuse can leave you overwhelmed and hopeless. Whether you are struggling with a specific issue, or concerned about your life in general, there is help-and healing-in therapy. I have 30 years' experience with adolescents, adults, and couples. People say I am easy to talk with and that they feel comfortable opening up to me. My approach is thoughtful, honest, respectful. We'll focus on current stressors in your life, and uncover the underlying issues. Our goal is easing emotional pain, developing coping skills, and improving overall personal contentment."
"I am licensed in New Jersey as a practicing psychologist. I practice in Westfield. I work with people of all ages, either individually or as part of a couple or family. In my practice, I welcome general issues such as coping with depression, anxiety, stress, and other related issues. I have some special interests in recovering from trauma or abuse, coping with chronic illness or disability, and managing learning and neuro-developmental difficulties. I also work with issues such as avoiding burnout for small business owners, practice owners, and healthcare professionals. I love my work."
"Hi! I am extremely passionate about helping each and every client through caring & empathetic counseling, with a focus on reaching solutions and your highest potential. I strive to create the most comfortable and kindest environment for my clients. I specialize in working with Adolescents who are struggling with fitting in, bullying, self-esteem, body image, behavioral issues, organizational skills, academic issues, eating disorders, family conflict, Obsessive-Compulsive, Peer Relationships, Substance Abuse, Teen Violence, Addiction, Anger Management, Impulsivity, Depression, Grief, Oppositional Defiance, Relationship Issues, Self-Harming, Suicidal Ideation, & Anxiety. I also work with adults in the areas mentioned above as well as Career Counseling."
"I have a general psychotherapy/counseling practice and I enjoy helping clients to identify their needs and goals and then help them achieve their goals. I like to help people who are struggling with depression, anxiety, or interpersonal skills deficits."
"I am a Licensed Clinical Social Worker with more than 13 years of experience who graduated from New York University. My areas of expertise include working with children, adolescents, and families on a variety of issues, including: depression, anxiety, family conflicts/relational issues, as well as many other life stressors. I truly enjoy working with clients, and want to help them to feel better about themselves and achieve their goals."
"In a safe, comfortable and strictly confidential setting, clients are encouraged to focus on environmental and family influences, as well as personality and emotional issues to directly address problems and develop an improved sense of well being and relationships. New and more adaptive coping mechanisms are developed to reduce conflict and stress. Strategies are designed to help clients negotiate more effectively at home, school, and in the workplace."
"Upon entering therapy, my clinical approach is tailored to meet each individual's needs. There is not a cookie cutter person, thus, there is no cookie cutter approach to therapy. I work from an eclectic approach, incorporating a multitude of therapeutic modalities to assist my clients in meeting their treatment goals. I generally incorporate cognitive behavioral, dialectical behavioral, person centered, and solution focused therapy strategies into each session. My clients and I will identify struggles and develop empowerment strategies to improve quality of life. In a non judgmental and supportive environment, one can feel safe to explore encountered problems."
"Our individual personality idiosyncrasies are remarkably persistent throughout our lives. This can lead people to assume that psychotherapy will be of limited help. However, psychotherapy can identify the reasons that contribute to an inability to cope or affect real change in our daily lives. The therapeutic process can give renewed motivationand hope to overcome obstacles and learn new behaviors. I am a therapist who is passionate about the psychotherapy process. I have a deep respect for others' lives and familiarity with the challenges one faces in creating a meaningful and contented life. An important part of the therapeutic process involves learning"
"I believe that psychotherapy is a gift you give yourself. As a psychotherapist, I have helped many competent, well-educated men and women whose lives, while "good on paper," are unsatisfying. They feel empty despite successes and have difficulties maintaining healthy relationships with loved ones. Often, those who seek my services feel stuck in their lives but do not know why or how to make productive changes. Psychotherapy examines the ways we repeat the patterns which only lead us to disappointment. I can help you identify these roadblocks to happiness and assist you in getting what you want and deserve."
"I am an adult psychiatrist in Westfield and Upper Montclair. I did my psychiatric training at The New York State Psychiatric Institute and was chief resident in my last year of residency. After graduating from Psychiatric Residency, I did one more year fellowship in Consultation Liaison Psychiatry at The Montefiore Medical Center, Albert Einstein College of Medicine."
"I am an Adolescent and child psychiatrist in Westfield. I completed my fellowship at NYU child study center and Bellevue Hospital. I worked with diverse populations in NYC and more recently in Newark NJ where I am and Attending Physician at the Beth Israel Medical Center."
"During times of significant challenge we all seek being heard and feeling connected, especially when anxiety, loss or uncertainty are present. We want to feel that we're with someone who is able to resonate, comprehend and communicate. In thirty years of practice I have had a wide range of experience working with individuals, couples and families and with issues including anxiety, depression, trauma, identity and relationships. Each therapy is a unique endeavor of attunement and connection with a combined participation in the attempt to obtain relief, gain understanding and enhance life."

We hypothesized that somatizing patients managed by primary care physicians (PCP) would improve with a relationship-based intervention.
We randomized 30 adults with medically unexplained symptoms to treatment or usual care. Four PCPs were trained to intervene with cognitive-behavioral, pharmacological, and patient-centered management and deployed the intervention with seven scheduled visits over 12 months. Outcomes obtained at baseline and 12 months were: Mental component summary (MCS), the primary endpoint, and measures of physical and psychological symptoms and of satisfaction with the PCP.
Patients averaged 52.5 years; 83.3% were female; 79.6% were black. Using a difference of differences approach, we found that the intervention produced a large effect size (ES) (0.82; CI: 0.08 to 1.57) for the MCS in the predicted direction, similar to the ES for physical (−0.80; CI: −1.55 to −0.04) and psychological (−1.06; CI: −1.83 to −0.28) improvement and for increased satisfaction with the PCP (0.94; CI: 0.15 to 1.74). Using ANCOVA in a sensitivity analysis, we found that the ES fell slightly (0.59), while other measures were unchanged.
Moderate-large effect sizes support the hypothesis that PCPs can effectively treat somatization. This points to the importance of performing a full RCT.
