House Panel Approves Keystone XL Pipeline Bill
The House Energy and Commerce Committee approved legislation Tuesday that would reverse President Obama's rejection of the Keystone XL oil sands pipeline.
The House Energy and Commerce Committee approved legislation Tuesday that would reverse President Obama's rejection of the Keystone XL oil sands pipeline.
Politico is reporting that President Obama is planning to reject the Keystone XL pipeline this afternoon.
Here's a quick roundup of some reasons why we think that's awesome:
The building of a 1,700-mile pipeline through the heartland of the United States has been at the center of the debate on the economy for many months now. Much has been written by those who both support and oppose its construction. And much has also been written about just how important the pipeline would be to the U.S. economy if it were actually to be built.
With the deadline for the Obama administration's decision on construction coming up fast (2/21), many have already made up their minds. But have they done so on the basis of accurate figures?
It might be pretty difficult to do so, given that various estimates put the number of jobs created though the construction of the pipeline at anywhere between 20 and 350,000. So where have all these different estimates come from, and which one (if any) is actually accurate?
The first difficulty that arises from trying to find an accurate estimate is that most of the numbers from the upper echelons of the estimates come from the company who are hoping to build the pipeline: TransCanada.
After years of opposition from coal industry lobbyists, the Environmental Protection Agency has issued the first national standards for mercury and air toxin pollution.
The standards will slash emissions of these dangerous pollutants by relying on widely available, proven pollution controls that are already in use at more than half of the nation's coal-fired power plants.
The EPA estimates that the new safeguards will prevent as many as 11,000 premature deaths and 4,700 heart attacks each year. The standards also will help America's children grow up healthier — preventing 130,000 cases of childhood asthma and about 6,300 fewer cases of acute bronchitis among children each year.
While citizens across the United States have been demanding President Obama deny the permit for the Keystone XL pipeline, Canadians and First Nations folks have been organizing as well.
One question I've been asked repeatedly during the Tar Sands organizing is: "If we stop the mining and oil company from building a pipeline from Alberta to Texas, won't they just a build one from Alberta to the Pacific and ship the oil to China?"
The companies were only too happy to have us buy their logic. But the truth was that our job in the U.S. was to keep the pipeline out of our backyard, and trust that the Canadian movement would do the same. Well, it turns out they have. First Nations folks pledged to block construction with their bodies and widespread public concern has forced the Harper government to review environmental concerns.
President Obama said he'd make a decision on the Keystone pipeline after the election.
The decision to not decide until later was a victory for environmental activists, as the pipeline would be a serious threat to the ecosystems it passes through should it spring a leak (TransCanada has already had 12 oil spills in 2011 alone. That's 12 too many, by the way.)
This Sunday (11/6), is precisely one year from the 2012 General Election where the next U.S. President will be elected, and to mark the date, thousands of people from across the country plan to gather at the White House.
But we're not gathering to celebrate, have a sit-in, or even march in protest. Instead, we plan to surround the White House -- literally -- in a Circle of Hope that could be as large as a mile or more in circumference.
From our Circle of Hope we will call upon President Obama to reject the dirty-oil, Keystone XL pipeline Big Oil wants to build from the Canadian tar sands in the Alberta province 6,000 miles south -- straight through the American Heartland -- to the oil refineries along the Gulf Coast of Texas.
Hundreds of miners, activists, students, academics, environmentalists, and other citizens are marching to West Virginia's historic Blair Mountain in an effort to save it from mountaintop removal.
The April issue of Sojourners magazine takes on climate change denial. One challenge is that the truth is hard to face -- but, as scientist Sasha Adkins describes from personal experience, one strategy is to draw inspiration from the comforts of home.
The question that I am most often asked when I talk about my Ph.D. research on the impacts of pollution has nothing to do with my methodology or my data. It is, "How do you live with this knowledge? Where do you find your hope?" It's a good question. My research results on the impact of plastics on human health and the environment are often quite demoralizing to hear. More than once when I am presenting them, an audience member has literally started to cry.
I took a year off from my environmental studies program to search for the answer to that very question, to find hope -- but this time, instead of turning to peer-reviewed journals for answers, I turned to my cats. I asked them if they would be willing to try living without fossil-fuel heat for the winter.

Released: Jul 01st, 2002
Running Time: 138
Director: Rocco Siffredi
Company: Rocco Siffredi Productions
Distribution Companies: Evil Angel
Cast: Franco Roccoforte, Alex Mantegna, Sandy (I), Steve Holmes (I), Mannel Ferrara, Viki (VI) (Slovak), Theza, Honey (I), Laura (IV) (Hungarian), Rocco Siffredi, Dora Venter, Stacy (I)
Critical Rating: AAA 1/2
Genre: All-Sex
Rocco fans everywhere.
Though the opening group scene is a nice start (thanks, in part, to the dude whose thick cock is roughly the same diameter as a soup can), and its follow up with Franco Roccoforte, heart shape-assed Honey, little Dora and friend is delicious indeed (with some laugh value offered by Dora's plea, "Don't kill me, please!" when Roccoforte starts loosening her bunghole), nothing can prepare you for the fury of Rocco in the third scene with naturally big-titted Laura.
Leading Rocco out to a glass pool house, Laura shuts him out and teases him by pressing her mammoth mammaries against the glass, seductively licking her lips. Finally she lets him in so he can watch her douse herself in baby oil. With the reflection of the room shining on her oiled breasts, Laura jams a large double header up her cunt while massaging Rocco's moneymaker with a greasy hand. His reaction? Whip out some electrical tape and wrap it around her thighs, waist, tits and neck. With an appreciative "You nasty!" and another liberal helping of baby oil, Rocco fucks her ass hard. Pre-nom for Best Couples (or Anal) Scene.
Though the finale doesn't live up to the balls-out sizzle of that scene, it's still good jerk material.

#7537 new New feature
Make RegexURLResolver easier to subclass
|Reported by:
|Owned by:
|Core (URLs)
|url, urlpatterns, resolver
|kenneth.arnold@…, eallik@…
|Triage Stage:
|Has patch:
|Needs documentation:
|Needs tests:
|Patch needs improvement:
|Easy pickings:
Referencing the django-developers discussion, here's some simple patches to make the URL resolver easier to customize.
First is a nearly minimal patch to convert the url_patterns property to an accessor, get_url_patterns, to ease subclassing, and make the other methods use that consistently instead of duplicating its functionality. With only this patch you can make your own URL resolver without duplicating code, but it's still not clean.
The second patch cleans up the situation by abstracting the core functionality of a regex URL resolver into BaseRegexURLResolver.
The third patch is an example of how newforms-admin might use this for URL dispatching. I don't have a deep understanding about what's going on, so treat what I did just as an example. Perhaps the cleanest way to accomplish some of what the old ad-hoc resolver did is to override resolve, and if super().resolve returns None, do the ad-hoc stuff.
You'd use a custom resolver in your urlconf like this:
urlpatterns += [AdminSite(r'^admin/')]
i.e., like a normal include (at least, what that include looks like under the hood).
The newforms-admin change would be backwards-incompatible, so if people think it's a good idea, it should get a separate ticket.
About the accessor: properties don't inherit well. Could add a url_patterns = property(lambda self: self.get_url_patterns()) if that's not too ugly.

Our unique circulation strategy pays off for our Advertisers
We are the only publication that is delivered to the leaders of all of the 23,000 plus town, city, county and state law enforcement agencies in the country. The chief reads it and then leaves it out in the roll call room for his officers to read. That means your message is delivered to every agency in the nation.
Keep in mind that 15,000 copies of our 55,000 plus press run are distributed to a rotating list of law enforcement supply stores, training academies and roll call rooms of agencies with 100 or more sworn officers where they create a large audience of new readers every month. Those lists which were developed exclusively by American Police Beat are available at no charge to our program advertisers.
Assuming 4 readers per copy that's an additional audience of 60,000 NEW readers every month, or 720,000 each year. This is just one more reason to make sure you advertise in American Police Beat every month.
We conservatively guestimate that 220,000 people read each issue. There is a huge pass along factor with American Police Beat. We even heard one story where 19 cops chipped in a dollar each and share one subscription (costs $17 for one year). Crazy but true.

Ford Flex
MSRP from$31,799 to $45,599 CHECK LOCAL PRICING
- 2016
- Ford
- Flex
With minor changes since its debut as a 2009 model, the seven-passenger, Canadian-built Flex crossover features a respectable suite of technology, comfort and safety features for 2016.
The Flex comes standard with a 3.5-litre V6 that delivers 287 horsepower and 254 lb.-ft. of torque and is mated to a six-speed SelectShift automatic transmission. Optional is a 3.5-litre twin-turbocharged EcoBoost V6 that produces 365 hp and 350 lb.-ft. of torque. Intelligent all-wheel drive continuously monitors vehicle and driver input, predicts traction and automatically delivers the precise amount of engine torque needed to all four wheels. All-wheel drive is available with the base 3.5L V6 engine and is standard on the 3.5L EcoBoost.
Considering its size, Flex's available active park assist should be a must; it uses ultrasonic sensors to locate a parallel parking space. Once a spot is identified, the system steers the crossover into place with the driver controlling the gearshift, gas and brake pedals.

Addresses with the same domain as my vhost are causing Postfix and QMail to revert to a local network instead of just outright sending the mail. I thought I had this problem fixed with the Luke Tarplin method, but commenting out those lines in the
/etc/postfix/main.cf have stopped working since the 10.4.4 update to PLESK for some reason.
I've seen other suggestions including adding MX records, modifying the
main.cf in different ways. I know very little about MTA's and even less about DNS settings.
Does anyone have any advice on a solution to making Postfix treat all email recipients the same and just send the email instead of reverting to local?

Researchers Now Have a Myriad of...
Keep the Opportunities, Lose the Opportunists
Noven Pharmaceuticals reported positive data from separate 12- and 24-week Phase III trials evaluating low-dose mesylate salt of paroxetine (LDMP; 7.5 mg/day) for reducing the frequency and severity of moderate-to-severe vasomotor symptoms (VMS) associated with the menopause (i.e., hot flashes and night sweats). Both studies showed LDMP therapy reduced the frequency of menopausal VMS, and in the 24-week trial the drug also significantly reduced the severity of VMS symptoms at week 12.
The placebo-controlled studies evaluated LDMP in a total of over 1,100 women aged at least 40 years who were experiencing more than 7–8 moderate-to-severe hot flashes daily, or 50–60 per week prior to the study start. "Women often report hot flashes as the most common symptom associated with menopause, yet, there has been a decline in the use of hormone therapy among women seeking treatment for menopausal VMS," states Andrew M. Kaunitz, M.D. professor and associate chair at the University of Florida College of Medicine's department of obstetrics and gynecology. "LDMP was specifically developed for the treatment of menopausal VMS. It appears to be effective and well-tolerated, and, if approved by FDA, it could be the first nonhormonal option available for women."
At the end of August Noven Pharmaceuticals submitted an NDA to FDA for use of LDMP in the menopausal VMS indication. The firm is a subsidiary of Hisamitsu Pharmaceutical.

Yea you better leave...
gives Chewie a 'look' I got this mate.....don't annoy this one....
I'm in enough trouble.....how about you join us in the Cantina?
I suppose
*follows them*
Good mornin', lovelies. How are yall this fine Saturday morning/evening/whatever time it is where you are?
Im ok, in trouble I suspect....but ok.
Ooooh Addie is in trouble!
Shuddup you.....or I'll make your life difficult!
No she is not in trouble since EKW is not part of the NSO but his presence is chilling.
Sent from a Galaxy far away via R2-N6
Good Mando Bones, my kid is up and we are doing a 500 piece SW puzzle together. The one I got him for Christmas
I didnt find it chilling.....a little cool maybe. But I am relieved to find I'm not in trouble!
Good to know. It's always better to not be in trouble. Going and finding some trouble, that's a different story...
Well I kinda went looking for it, but didn't expect to find it.........
I noticed that.
Actually, honesty time, I did expect to find it, just forgot where I was when I called for it..... I knew he was back.
No worries, I've done that myself once before.
Promise I will check the sign on the door next time
You would think the decor in the temple would be different from the decor in the Blue Moon. Someone should decorate in here.
Naw, Jedi don't require possessions.....so what would we put in here?
Can I decorate?! Can I? Please?!?!
I just thought you people would get less confused about where you were if we decorated. I mean seriously a Jedi temple should not look so much like a Cantina that people forget where they are....unless your plastered. Are you plastered?
NO Chewbie.
She may be a little tipsy.
I'm not plastered. Blastered, mabye, but not plastered. Alcohol doesn't agree with my pleasant and accomodating Mando demeanor.
I was just thinking you should hang some portraits of past Jedi heroes or some esteemed Masters or something. Make us feel like were being watched in here so we don't get out of line.
Hmmmm That's not such a bad idea. But did you know the temple already has statues of past jedi?
Clearly you need one of those handy dandy "Mando Men" calendars. That would do nicely...

Although I am using the Zend framework, MooTools JS library and my questions revolves around them, this is a more generic question.
I am working on a web app, in which I am using many elements which are sometimes useful on other pages (for example OpenLayers related MooTools classes).
Mootools already allows this "segmentation" by "classing" (creating "Class"..) so I feel tha the next thing to do is to have separate JS file for every class, then send a request to a PHP page with the classes I want and get in return JS file with what I need. At the same time this mechanism will minify and gzip and cache locally on the server (for future requests) and send me back this one file.
I didnt go into design yet and was wondering if such / similar solution is out there? Alternatively I see libraries like labJS that speeds things up by multi threading the requests, this however does not complete the solution with minification and gzip (I have to take care of this server side with another complementary solution).
Is any one using similar dynamic JS "Class" loading solution?
Cheers, Roman

A Small League for Little Dudes Is the New Hope at Mansfield U.
Football Is the Name of the Game, But Everything Is Scaled Down
MANSFIELD, Pa. -- Like many college football players this time of year, Mansfield University wide receiver Kevin Valentine was doing all he could to keep the late-summer heat from melting off the hard-earned weight he had gained.
"Every day after lunch and dinner, I'd have a burger in one hand and ice cream in the other," he says. The 5-foot-6 Mr. Valentine added 13 pounds and now weighs a solid 134.
Mr. Valentine surely is among the smallest players in history at a school that claims to have played college football's first night game, in 1892. But small is all the rage at Mansfield, a public college with a student body of 3,400 in the hills of north-central Pennsylvania. This year, for the first time, no member of the Mounties can play if he weighs more than 172 pounds.
Mansfield is the first new addition in more than 50 years to the only varsity league playing the niche game of sprint football. In the sport's college conference, the Collegiate Sprint Football League, member schools Cornell, Princeton, Penn, Army and Navy stick to the same weight limitations.
Mansfield will introduce its new lightweight squad Saturday, at home against Cornell. If the novel approach works, it could provide a path for smaller schools to battle the spiraling costs of college athletics.
Sprint players remind doubters that they play a full-fledged varsity college sport. They say their game hardly differs from the one played by what they sometimes call "fat boys." The 300-pound linemen common on major college rosters need not apply here.
Before folding after the 2006 season, Mansfield's old, heavyweight football team lost 29 of its last 31 games. And the school couldn't compete financially against other schools with a 2006 football budget of just $474,000. The school concluded it couldn't even afford that. Mansfield President Maravene Loeschke says that killing the old team was the toughest decision of her life.
But Ms. Loeschke remained open to alternatives, and Steve McCloskey, Mansfield's director of athletic operations, discovered one in Ithaca, N.Y. Mr. McCloskey found friends within Cornell's sprint-football program hoping to bring the Mounties into the league. They said the Mounties could play at one-third the cost, thanks to smaller rosters, cheaper coaching staffs, less travel and no scholarships.
Mansfield already had the facilities -- a stadium, equipment and coaches' offices. And it would be joining a group of elite schools. Still, Ms. Loeschke was skeptical. "I'd never heard of it, so it was astonishment, at first. Is it football light?" But after Cornell athletic officials talked to Mansfield's board of trustees, she was won over. The team is getting by with a budget of $135,000.
Sprint football does have a history. Hall of Fame coach George Allen early in his career was an assistant with Michigan's now defunct 1947 sprint team. Donald Rumsfeld, the former secretary of defense, happily recalls playing various positions at Princeton (class of 1954), when the weight limit was 150 pounds. "The crowds were modest," he says.
The small-crowd problem persisted and sprint football saw its membership dwindle to five schools after Rutgers dropped its lightweight program following the 1989 season. Constant pressures on colleges to balance their budgets and to comply with Title IX legislation, which mandates proportional resources for men's and women's sports programs, have helped limit the game's expansion.
League teams hope Mansfield, which will play only Cornell, Princeton and Penn this year, will get players to participate who would otherwise settle for playing in fraternity leagues. "Mansfield could be the savior" of sprint football, says Cornell Coach Terry Cullen.
For their part, Mansfield administrators hope to corner the market on smaller young men who want to play football but can't afford -- or can't qualify academically for -- the other schools in the league. Coach Dan Davis points out that unlike his new league rivals, his school has just one football team to cheer on. The others all have regular intercollegiate football programs that draw more money and more attention, in addition to sprint teams.
Many Freshmen
Of course, the results on the field may not be any better than they were in recent losing seasons at Mansfield, with a 51-man roster composed largely of freshmen. A dozen or so have never played organized football before, including two of nine offensive linemen. Only four other players in that offensive unit played the position in high school.
Some downcast Mansfield alums in this football-mad state see this as a watered-down version of the team they remember, and they have hesitated to pledge support. But others welcome the second chance.
So do linebacker Solomon Isom and receiver Ryan Bernaiche, who played on the varsity squad in 2006 and dwarf some of their new teammates. Both insist sprint football is just as tough as their old style of play was.
Now Mr. Isom has the added concern of staying slim. He rolls his eyes discussing a recent weigh-in of 178 pounds. Without dropping six pounds in three days ahead of two midweek weigh-ins, he wouldn't be allowed to play in a scrimmage against Princeton. But he made weight and did get to play in the scrimmage, which Mr. McCloskey figures drew 1,000 fans.
Danny Moss, the team's 5-foot-5-inch quarterback, says the initial impact of hits doesn't feel as bad as when he played in high school and faced larger defenders more likely to squash him.
At a recent Saturday practice, Mr. Moss had to employ his quickness as defenders like Mr. Isom repeatedly beat his inexperienced offensive line. The game looked much like standard football, with a slightly quieter clomp of cleats on the field. After practice, the school's president, Ms. Loeschke, congratulated the Mounties on resurrecting football at the school.
"It's on your shoulders," she told players who had come from as far away as Iraq, where area native Ryan Elder had served two tours with the Marines when he decided to play instead of re-enlist. Players from seven states outside Pennsylvania also dot the roster, including Mr. Moss from Anchorage, Alaska, and Mr. Valentine, the receiver from Tonopah, Nev.
'Baby Gap'
With braces on his teeth and legs barely thicker than tire irons, the 19-year-old Mr. Valentine gamely suffers the nickname "Baby Gap" and all the jokes about whether he is old enough to drive. The burgers and ice cream he had been pounding help him comply with league rules requiring at least 5% body fat, so as not to encourage eating disorders.
But Mr. Valentine's coach and teammates insist he could become one of Mansfield's best players. Before applying there, he had been leaning toward trying out as a player on the University of Hawaii's heavyweight varsity team. The school was nice, Mr. Valentine says, "but there are some big boys up there."

This review describes recent research in the application of optical techniques to microfluidic systems for chemical and biochemical analysis. The "lab-on-a-chip" presents great benefits in terms of reagent and sample consumption, speed, precision, and automation of analysis, and thus cost and ease of use, resulting in rapidly escalating adoption of microfluidic approaches. The use of light for detection of particles and chemical species within these systems is widespread because of the sensitivity and specificity which can be achieved, and optical trapping, manipulation and sorting of particles show significant benefits in terms of discrimination and reconfigurability. Nonetheless, the full integration of optical functions within microfluidic chips is in its infancy, and this review aims to highlight approaches, which may contribute to further miniaturisation and integration.

Multi-pointer Remote Desktop: Ending the Mouse/Keyboard Wars
Developer Chris Ball has patched the Vino Virtual Network Computing (VNC) server to display multiple simultaneous mouse and keyboard events. The result could be an end to the battle over mouse and keyboard control among local and remote users in a VNC environment.
As Chris Ball says in his blog, "Remote desktop is a pretty useful technology. It would be more useful if it wasn't so competitive, though; when someone joins, the sharer has to sit back and watch, or fight over who gets control. Well, now it's cooperative."
Ball has patched the Vino VNC server so that all VNC clients have independent mouse and keyboard control. The patch is based on Peter Hutterer's Multi-pointer X (MPX) extensions to X.org (destined for X Server 1.6.0) that allow driving a desktop with multiple mice and keyboards.
The patch applies to the server only; the clients don't need to be modified to cooperate. Every newly connected mouse/keyboard pair is registered and events are sent to the appropriate client. Ball admits that his patch is still a prototype, with some bugs. Notably, "each client can only see the pointer of themselves and the server, although the server can see everyone's pointer." He's actively working on fixing the bugs and integrating the changes into the Vino repository "so that it's ready for when the distros start shipping a multi-pointer X server."

Testing the new functionality requires an MPX-compliant X Server, an MPX-capable window manager (such as Compiz) and Ball's patches. His blog also includes a demo video of his patched VNC in action.

okay, so!
awesome game!! there is still lag, but it's okay for me because my laptop sucks balls, and so does my wireless mouse. on another note, some humans seem to not have reflections and it's almost impossible for me to see the fangs. so that makes it extremely hard. and with the lag.. well, once one vampire with wings explodes, my computer goes nuts, and my mouse doesn't move fast enough for me to click on the next one, or the next one, so i auto fail those levels before i even get a chance. other than that, it's a really cool game with a cool, new concept
Thanks for the feedback. We just pushed an update that should reduce the lag. Also, you were right and there was a bug with the small puddles not reflecting humans - fixed!
Rated 4 / 5 stars
A great concept, but it fails in small details
This is a pretty cool, simple rather casual, yet challenging game. I love the humor and the game's concept itself.
However I find my experience to be less than desirable at some parts of the game. These are 2 things that I personally find most annoying:
1) You know those text that goes "1 more Vampire left"? Yup, they actually obstruct my vision of some traits; for instance there was actually a vampire talking to a human, but because of that text, I couldn't see his fangs, and the human got bitten. I could say the same for some of the other buttons.
* My suggestion for this is to make the text and buttons out of the playzone. That way those things will not obstruct your vision while you can still see/access them.
2) Some traits are basically almost impossible to tell. If the vampires have red eyes, its impossible to tell if they are facing away from you. The puddle levels tend to be a bit of an annoyance as the shadow is a little telegraphed from the feet of the characters and vampires can't be detected if they decide to walk at the bottom bit of the puddle. You can't really tell who is the vampire if the trait is as unnoticeable as always waking. While I admit that these adds to the difficulty, they also tend to be rather irritating when vampires refuse to reveal themselves or when the humans begin acting just like the vampires.
3) My greatest issue with the game was lag; its what really killed the game for me. I don't know how or why it happens, but it is possibly related to the graphics, seeing as the game is laggiest when there are a lot of vampires, when the bat explosion occurs and when I kill vampires (the coins).
All in all, the main problem with the game is that it has a tendency to restrict your vision when the game most requires it. Fix these issues and the lag and it'd be a lot more enjoyable.
Thanks for the feedback! We'll look at the data we've got for every level, and tweak the most difficult ones. Lag should be better already - try to select low quality in the main menu.
Rated 4.5 / 5 stars
This game is addictive and makes you more "alert".
Some games are just predictable;You make tasks that you mostly know what will do,and know what will happen in a certain time.
This one is different,you have to:
1. Use your vision (different or the same - im talking about the vampires/humans,not minigame)
2. Use your memory (bell/sunflower - tarot cards)
3. Use your reflex and focus (humand and vampire talking + vampires that will just use the explosion and turn humans into vampires)
4.Use your strategy intelligence (upgrades part)
5.Pay a good attention and use careful read(tarot cards before a mission and their infos)
-Good art.
-Nice gameplay.
-Good difficulty (challenging)
-Very creative.
-Simple and easy to understand.
-Good use of music and sounds - and somewhat funny.
-Sometimes a lag happens - although i didnt experience often.
-Wrong click - you can accidentally bash a human
-In some levels,the perspective of your vision can be troublesome
-Re-do levels - bit frustating if you couldnt achieve a badge,and since this game is supposed to train your mental abilities,replaying a level means you will do better than before.
The core of the game is very well made.The cons werent enough to lower my opinion about this piece of art here though.They are minimal anyway,and it didnt made it less fun.
Entertaining and creative! :)
Thanks for your good words! We already addressed lag, and we'll look at the other cons you mentioned.
Rated 4.5 / 5 stars
really fun!
but the view distance got irritating
Rated 3 / 5 stars
Great potential
Well, I really like the concept here, but with some of these zoomed out levels it's difficult enough to spot details like wings, let alone tiny things like fangs and claws. On levels where I have to make sure people have ALL those traits? No chance. The details either need to be more noticeable, or there needs to be a fullscreen option. Also, with a game this difficult, the inability to replay levels crippled my ability to upgrade as I progressed. And finally, the orange dot/blue dot game is okay in concept, but could really use to be a bit more appealing to the eye. It feels like the game suddenly shifts into a flash game from 1997, and that's not helping things.
All in all, I love the concept and the gameplay, but there's a lot of little details that need ironing out. I found myself quitting way earlier than I thought I would because I got tired of dealing with those problems.

Ashley Tisdale was snapped leaving Coffee Bean & Tea Leaf in Toluca Lake, California with a frozen drink in her hand. She was wearing her Dylan George Lucy Jeans in Czar wash again.

I do know why Ashley chooses to live in these jeans, they are so comfortable, I always put mine on when running errands and needing soft jeans, I definitely recommend them, they have been one of my favourite, go to pairs of jeans for months. Ashley is just gorgeous too, I love her style, everything she wears she looks great in. Buy these jeans at Singer22 for $209, you wont regret it.

HB ON THE SCENE:Choice's Sleep Inn 'Dream' Concept Hits Milestone
Wednesday May 15th, 2013 - 11:38AM
These are shortcuts to your favorite social networking and bookmark sites. Add this story to your Facebook page, del.icio.us, DiggIt, and many others!
LOS ANGELES—During its 59th annual convention being held here this week, Choice Hotels International said it passed a milestone for its Sleep Inn brand, reaching 100 "Designed to Dream" hotels.
The "Dream" program includes a new-build prototype and cost-effective renovation program for existing Sleep Inn hotels across the United States. Launched in May 2010, the Designed to Dream concept is driving increased customer satisfaction scores, new construction for Sleep Inn hotels and higher average performance, according to the company.
The milestone property is the Sleep Inn & Suites, Midland, TX, owned by David Burton, who also added 51 guestrooms to the hotel. Burton owns two other Sleep Inn hotels in Texas, the Sleep Inn & Suites Tyler and the Sleep Inn & Suites Round Rock outside Austin.
Sleep Inn currently leads new construction within the Choice Hotels family of 11 brands, according to company data. Last year, executed deals and new construction applications for Sleep Inn jumped 145% and 186%, respectively, compared to 2011.The growth is fueled in part by the refresh program, with renovated Designed to Dream hotels experiencing higher average performance over and above expected performance, according to the brand.
"We are finding guests really love the clean, modern look and feel of Designed to Dream hotels. In fact, recent in-depth research has determined that guests who stay at a Designed to Dream hotel are more likely to return to Sleep Inn hotels," said Mike Varner, head of domestic brand management for Sleep Inn. "Developers also find the new prototype attractive. It was designed to offer lower construction and ongoing operating costs than other midscale brands providing the opportunity for a greater return on investment for our franchisees."

Well, it's halfway through 2016, and not much has changed since the beginning of the year. Despite the terrorism acts in Orlando, FL and Turkey, and the Brexit referendum, little has happened to affect the travel industry. Overall, things might have slowed a bit, but a majority of the fundamentals are holding steady, including occupancy, ADR and RevPAR. I've been asked why this cycle has lasted longer than those preceding it. As far as I am concerned, it's due to a single phrase: Never Again.

Why Lebanon needs more Arab investment
The absence of Arab tourists and investors is weighing heavily on the Lebanese economy, said Mohammad Choukeir, president of the Chamber of Commerce and Industry of Beirut. "We cannot deny the fact that the flow of investments from Gulf countries, and mainly from Saudi Arabia, is very essential to the Lebanese economy," he said during a meeting held with the Association of Economic Media Representatives Sunday.
Choukeir said Saudis constituted the cornerstone of the Lebanese economy, especially when it came to the tourism and industry sectors.
"The Saudi market is a large recipient of Lebanese industrial products," he said.
He added that the lack of people from the Gulf visiting Lebanon was impacting the Lebanese economy, including the flow of funds from Lebanese working in the Gulf.
"Over 60 percent of these deposits come from Lebanese working in the region and this is a big loss," he said.
Choukeir called upon the government to meet in order to solve urgent economic issues. "We are not asking the government to meet [in order to] approve new projects but only to take the necessary measures to save Lebanon from the current critical economic situation," Choukeir said.
During the meeting, Choukeir also said he had received many complaints from Lebanese industrialists suffering from Syrian competition.
"I am not against foreign investment but all I am asking for is fair competition by foreign factories and for these businesses to obtain permits before entering the Lebanese market," he said.
He also highlighted the importance of holding the Lebanon Week exhibition in Jeddah, saying the kingdom will witness a great boom in its economy in the coming years due to the huge projects currently under development.
"We have decided to go to the Saudis since they are worried about coming to Lebanon but the political situation cannot separate us," he said, adding that both the Lebanese and Saudi governments had granted Lebanon the permits to hold the exhibition.

text: Close Best Tourney Seeds Ever, 16-1 0 0 More 0 0 0 View Gallery Next Previous Next Manny Millan/SI Princeton By almost eliminating top seed Georgetown in a first-round tournament game, Princeton made sure Cinderella would always get invited to the ball. Down 50-49, Princeton's Kit Mueller took the inbounds pass with one tick remained on the clock, but a game-saving block by Alonzo Mourning, who had seven blocks in the game, sealed a victory for the Hoyas. 1|16 Al Tielemans/SI Florida Gulf Coast It's not just that the Eagles beat No. 2 seed Georgetown and No. 7 San Diego State. It's how they did it. Sophomore point guard Brett Comer (right) dished 31 assists in FGCU's three-game run, many of which ended with monstrous crowd-pleasing slams by Chase Fieler (left). The magical run would end against Florida in the regional semis, but not before Dunk City had become a national name. 2|16 Jerry Wachter/SI Cleveland State The Vikings' Run 'n' Stun style made quite an impression on the No. 3-seed Indiana, who lost 83-79 in the first round. Led by freshman point guard Ken (Mouse) McFadden, the Vikings defeated Saint Joseph's and then came within a point of beating David Robinson and Navy. 3|16 David E. Klutho/SI Valparaiso The moment has a permanent place in every Big Dance highlight reel: With 2.5 seconds to play an opening-round game against No. 4 Ole Miss, Jamie Sykes threw a 55-foot inbounds pass to Bill Jenkins, who tapped it to Bryce Drew (left) for the leaning three-pointer that upset the Rebels 70-69. 4|16 Richard Mackson/SI Wyoming Fennis Dembo dropped 41 on Reggie Miller and fourth-seeded UCLA in the second round, stunning the Bruins 78-68. This win came just days after Dembo led the Cowboys to an upset over No. 5 seed Virginia. Wyoming's run would end in the Sweet 16, but Dembo's legend, for both his name and his game, lives on in Laramie. 5|16 Greg Nelson/SI George Mason Wins over Michigan State and North Carolina proved the Patriots belonged in the field, and the 86-84 regional final win over the Huskies was one for the ages. Sophomore Folarin Campbell and senior Lamar Butler combined for five three-pointers in a 6:02 span to force overtime. 6|16 Michael Conroy/AP Gonzaga The Zags beat No. 7 seed Minnesota in the first round for their first-ever NCAA tournament win. They then took out No. 2 Stanford to reach the Sweet 16. But it was a victory against Florida that vaulted the tiny Jesuit school into the Elite Eight and national prominence. 7|16 John W. McDonough/SI Wichita State After winning their first three games by a combined 38 points, the Shockers entered the West Regional finals against No. 2 seed Ohio State as an underdog on paper only. Led by seniors Malcolm Armstead and Carl Hall, WSU played with swagger, emerging with a 70-66 victory and the school's first Final Four berth since 1965. 8|16 Carl Skalak/SI Villanova The 19-10 Wildcats just barely made the newly expanded field, and senior forward Ed Pinckney and Villanova were given virtually no chance against defending champion Georgetown. But thanks to lights-out shooting (78.6%, still a title-game record) and a matchup zone that confounded Hoyas center Patrick Ewing, the Wildcats became the lowest seed to win a title. 9|16 AP Virginia The Cavaliers clawed through the Eastern region, winning three of their four games by two points or less. Against No. 2 seed Arkansas, co-captain Rick Carlisle hit a 10-foot baseline jumper with four seconds remaining in OT to seal a 53-51 win. Olden Polynice (24) and Virginia took Hakeem Olajuwon and Houston to OT in the national semifinal before falling 49-47. 10|16 Rich Clarkson/SI North Carolina State Lorenzo Charles began the season in coach Jim Valvano's doghouse for stealing two pizzas, but the sophomore forward finished on top of the world, after his buzzer-beating dunk defeated Houston 54-52. In upsetting the top-seeded Cougars, the Wolfpack became the first 10-loss team to win a title. 11|16 John W. McDonough/SI Butler While the real-life Hoosiers narrative was just too easy, the comparison sold the Bulldogs short. The leading men behind one of the tournament's most memorable runs included a future NBA coach (Brad Stevens) and a lottery pick (6' 9" swingman Gordon Hayward) who more than belonged in the championship game -- even if Hayward's last-second half-court heave didn't drop for a true Hollywood ending. 12|16 David E. Klutho/SI Arizona No fourth seed had ever won it all. Neither had any team from Arizona, or any squad coached by Lute Olson, whose Wildcats had a habit of first-round exits. But what did precedent matter to a team with four new starters, including freshman floor general Mike Bibby, who averaged 20.0 points, 6.0 rebounds and 4.3 assists in 'Zona's three wins over No. 1 seeds. 13|16 Rich Clarkson/SI Florida Sophomore starters Joakim Noah, Al Horford, Corey Brewer and Taurean Green and the Gators entered the season unranked. But by April, sparked by the charismatic Noah's tenacity (and his tournament-record six blocks in the the NCAA final against UCLA), the quartet of roommates had won the first of two NCAA titles. 14|16 Rich Clarkson/SI Michigan State Sophomore point guard Magic Johnson made the Spartans fly, and his two triple doubles capped an otherworldly NCAA run that would earn Michigan State its first national title and Johnson a statue on campus. "Every member of the team is a hero," one Spartans fan gushed to SI that April, "but Magic is a legend." 15|16 David E. Klutho/SI Kentucky Its talent was so abundant (11 Wildcats would play in the NBA) that coach Rick Pitino dubbed his team the Professionals. Winning a title seemed preordained. After outscoring their first five tournament opponents by an average of 24.0 points, senior guard Tony Delk tied a championship-game record with seven threes against Syracuse, and sophomore forward Antoine Walker added 11 points and nine rebounds to help inspire the team's enduring moniker: the Untouchables. 16|16 Next up Extra Mustard Isla Fisher :: Getty Images 13 Isla Fisher: Lovely Lady of the Day February 3, 2015 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 More Recommended Galleries College Basketball 1976 Summer Olympics 33 Classic SI Photos of Pat Summitt 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 More College Basketball Kris Jenkins shoots the game-winning three pointer to push Villanova past the North Carolina Tar Heels 77-74 in the national title game. 35 Villanova-North Carolina National Title Game Photos 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 More College Basketball Before he launched a Hall of Fame career as a tight end for the Chiefs and Falcons, Tony Gonzalez appeared in four NCAA tournament games during his junior and senior years in UC Berkeley.

A Watchmen hoodie can be yours, or Alan Moore's, for a cool $48.
Great, now I have Burn Down Hot Topic stuck in my head.
(via Pink Kryptonite)
Update: Stephen Gerding posted a snapshot last month of a Watchmen in-store display.
I'm really torn. i LOVE the idea of a Watchmen hoodie, but I loathe the idea of emo boys and girls wearing them as some sort of statement. I've seen the Watchmen film t-shirts at Hot Topic of Rorschach, but this…I don't know. I'm really torn. I think I'm feeling a bit of that elitist comic fan in me right now that doesn't want the public touching it. Now that I think of it, if this had the smiley face logo on it, it would be much better — this just isn't all that great.
That said, I CAN'T wait to see the movie.
I dig the graffiti on back.
I SOOOOO want to be there when someone wearing one of those walks up to Moore.
Give it a couple months. I promise.

BOSTON -- Kevin Cash was standing in front of his locker Friday afternoon, explaining to the media his personal timetable of having been designated for assignment by the Houston Astros and then acquired by the injury-ravaged Boston Red Sox on Thursday.
Suddenly another voice drifted over the gathering.
"You'll get designated again if you keep talking," said the voice, which belonged to Boston manager Terry Francona.
Francona chuckled as he spoke.
Jokes have been few and far between in the Red Sox clubhouse lately, aside from the proverbial gallows humor that has been unavoidable since Boston players began forming a conga line of injuries, limping to the 15-day disabled list with alarming frequency.
In the space of a week, Boston has lost five starting players -- Dustin Pedroia (fractured foot), Victor Martinez (fractured thumb), Clay Buchholz (left hamstring), Manny Delcarmen (forearm strain) and Jason Varitek (fractured foot).
And while Buchholz is recovering nicely, in line to make a start Monday in Tampa, the others will be on the shelf for a while, joining right-hander Josh Beckett, who has been on the DL since May 19; and outfielders Jacoby Ellsbury and Jeremy Hermida, both out with fractured ribs.
But don't expect Francona or the Red Sox to feel sorry for themselves. They just try to plug the holes as best as possible and shoulder on in their pursuit of the first-place New York Yankees in the American League East.
Enter Cash.
The backup catcher spent time with Boston in 2007 and 2008, serving as Tim Wakefield's personal catcher in 2008. Familiarity apparently bred a sigh of relief for the Red Sox, who dealt infielder Angel Sanchez to the Astros for Cash, who was in Triple-A Round Rock.
Cash was thrust into Friday night's starting lineup, fittingly reunited with Wakefield, the starter in the opener of a three-game series against the Orioles.
"He's the perfect guy," Francona said Friday during his daily press briefing.
"He walked through the door and he was a welcome sight. He's been here before, he's familiar with our pitchers. It's an advantage. It's a situation that happened quickly. I think it was unanimous [to acquire Cash] from the coaching staff and [general manager] Theo [Epstein]," said Francona.
For his part, Cash, was "very excited" to return.
"There's not much pressure," said Cash, who batted .207 with three homers and 19 RBIs in 73 games in his first stint with the Sox.
"It has been two years since I caught Wake, but I talked to him. I'm sure it will work out fine. I'm fairly comfortable with him," said Cash.
Cash, whose backup for the time being is Gustavo Molina, who had been plucked from Pawtucket on Tuesday, said he had talked with bullpen coach Gary Tuck in an effort to familiarize himself with the pitchers on the staff he doesn't know from his time in Boston.
While Cash, who batted .204 in 54 at-bats for Houston, was excited with his sudden change of fortunes, Varitek was more subdued. The Sox' captain, relegated to backing up Martinez this season, was looking forward to getting the lion's share of the work behind the plate with Martinez on the DL.
But the Rays' Carl Crawford fouled a ball off his right foot in Wednesday's game. The first test didn't show the damage, but as Varitek experienced increased discomfort, more tests on Thursday showed a displaced fracture of the second metatarsal on his right foot. It's a similar injury to that suffered by Pedroia last Friday, except Varitek's fracture is on the top of the foot, Pedroia's on the side.
But the net result is the same. They are on crutches, in boots and can't put weight on their injured foot for 2-3 weeks.
"I was looking forward to being healthy and playing but you can't dictate the timing of something like this happening," said Varitek. "I thought I'd be able to play Saturday."
Instead, Varitek said he would be seeking a second opinion on his injury, just to "attack it from all sides."

8 Healthy Snacks to Try Instead continued...
5. Quesadillas
A quesadilla is quick to fix in the microwave or on the stove. If you use a whole-wheat or whole-grain tortilla and reduced-fat cheese, you'll get plenty of protein and fiber (12 grams protein; 8 grams fiber) for hunger-satisfying power.
You can customize your quesadilla by adding nutrient-rich vegetables such as tomatoes, chopped green onions, peppers, or avocado.
- 100 Calorie 100% whole-wheat tortilla, 1 oz. Shredded Reduced-Fat Cheddar or Jack Cheese: 172 calories, 6.5 g total fat, 3.5 g saturated fat, 8 g fiber, 560 mg sodium
6. Lower-Sugar Snack Bars
There are lots of types of snack bars out there, from bars made with granola or nuts to bars coated in chocolate or yogurt. Most contain plenty of sugar (usually at least 12 grams). But there are a few (with 8 grams of sugar or less per bar) that dare to emphasize nuts or whole grains instead of sweetness. Note that the grams of fat in some bars will be high due to the heart-smart fats found in the nuts.
- Nature Valley Roasted Almond Crunch Bar, 2 bars: 190 calories, 8 g total fat, 1 g saturated fat, 2 g fiber, 11 g sugar
- Clif Mo Jo Mixed Nuts, Trail Mix Bar (1.6 ounces): 200 calories, 12 g fat, 1.5 g saturated fat, 2 g fiber, 190 mg sodium, 8 g sugar
- Cascadian Farm Organic Dark Chocolate Almond Chewy Granola Bars, 1 bar (1.25 ounce): 130 calories, 4 g fat, 1 g saturated fat, 5 g fiber, 8 g sugar
- Kashi TLC Peanut Peanut Butter Chew Granola Bars, 1 bar (1.25 ounces): 140 calories, 5 g fat, .5 g saturated fat, 4 g fiber, 5 g sugar
- KIND Plus Almond Walnut Macadamia with Peanuts + Protein, 1 bar (1.4 ounces): 190 calories, 12 g fat, 1.5 g saturated fat, 3 g fiber, 8 g sugar
7. Frozen Vegetables
Vegetables can be fun to eat, like frozen edamame (green soybeans) from the pod. Just heat in the microwave (you can also serve them cold), open up the pods, and snack away at the green soybeans inside. They're low in calories and packed with fiber and protein (8 grams fiber, 10 grams protein). If you're hankering for a potato-based snack, the frozen steak fries and wedge-cut oven fries are usually the lowest in calories, fat, and saturated fat because they have a higher ratio of potato to crispy exterior. I've also listed a couple of products that feature dark green veggies.
- Edamame (in pod), 1 1/8 cup: 90 calories, 2 g total fat, 0 g saturated fat, 8 g fiber, 30 mg sodium
- Ore*Ida Steak Fries, 3 ounces.: 110 calories, 3 g total fat, 1.5 g saturated fat, 2 g fiber, 290 mg sodium
- McCain Steak Cut Fries, 3 ounces: 100 calories, 3 g fat, 0 g saturated fat, 1 g fiber, 280 mg sodium

And they are definitely darker than yesterdays tests. Are you guys still thinking evap? The lines showed up well before the 3 minute mark. What do you guys think? (the first two are the same test I just took it again against a black background)
I hesitated posting these because I dont want you to think I am trying to go against what you guys said yesterday. I just swear that I am pregnant and wanted to see what you guys think.

AAUW Campus Action Projects
There are more science, technology, engineering, and math (STEM) jobs than ever, but women remain severely underrepresented. Studies show that men are paid more and hired more often in engineering and computing careers than equally qualified women. That means the fields that are designing our future are missing the creativity, intellect, and drive of half the population.
It's not adding up.
Congratulations to AAUW's 2015-16 Campus Action Project Teams!
How can we recruit more women in engineering and computing while addressing the chilly climate, gender pay gap, sexism, and gender-based discrimination that many women face in these fields?
College women, you can help put an end to the tired stereotypes and harmful biases that hold back your career ambitions. And AAUW is ready to stand with you. Women in engineering and computing have enormous social impact through real-world applications. It's time to take action in your campus community to target the barriers that women and girls face in these spaces and to #addwomen. Help show your community that engineering and computing fields can and should be environments where women thrive.
It's time to solve the equation.
Watch video on YouTube.
How the Projects Work
AAUW's Campus Action Project (CAP) grants give students on 10–12 campuses up to $5,000 to put their ideas into action. CAP grant teams encourage and empower other students to put an end to the stereotypes and bias that women still face in engineering and computing.
Bring a Campus Action Project Grant to Your Campus
Applications for the 2016–17 CAP grants will open in August 2016. Learn more about applying for a Campus Action Project. For more information, e-mail email@example.com.

Hi, I'm trying to remove my AddThis plugin's Button from my static pages, like "About Me" and "Contact" and "Home"... How do I do this? I tried searching the AddThis forums, and couldn't find anything: AddThis Comment
I also tried searching these forums, but couldn't find it. I would think this would be a simple task. I don't see any Settings page for the plugin when I'm browsing my Admin Dashboard. I know I must be missing something.
Any help would be greatly appreciated!
