|Fastest Chest Builder -By Ross Johnson
Hello, I have a exercise which you may have heard of, but is unlisted on your site. This is the fastest chest builder I've ever tried, and I think you may find it useful.
Step one: Lay on a flat bench as if you were doing a bench-press. With a smaller bar, usually the ones with curved hand areas, place your hands toward the center for better results, with index fingers about 5 inches apart.
Step two: Place the bar between the nipple region, and move it only about one inch above your face, then behind your head, and as close to the ground as possible. Then pull it back to it's starting position, keeping it about an inch above your face/chest at all times.
This is a very useful technique, and not too difficult, I recommend starting bodybuilders to use about 20 pounds (10 on each side), and to work from there. I use 50 pounds on each side, and the results are astounding.
Thank you
|Get Big Forearms -By email@example.com
Do this workout twice a week, no less, no more:
Sit down on a bench. Grab a light dumbbell. Grab the end of the dumbbell and do wrist curls but make sure you do them very slowly and squeeze at contraction for maximum growth. Do 3 sets of 8. Now do 3 sets of reverse wrist curls the same way but this time use a lighter dumbbell than you did for wrist curls since it will be harder to curl.
This routine not only enhances the size of your forearms significantly, but also increases muscular definition. Soon you will see bumps and veins popping out of your forearms. Compare grabbing the end of a dumbbell to grabbing the middle of the dumbbell. My routine works great. I used to grab the middle of the dumbbell but wasn't seeing any results. Do this routine I listed and get back to me if you'd like. I am interested to know your results.
|Add 25-50 Pounds to Your Bench Press in Just 3 Weeks -By email@example.com
I have been a personal trainer for the past two years, and am currently sponsored by Supreme Supplements, The easiest way for you to add an extreme amount of weight lies in the way of 3 exercises.
Exercise A) Do at least 150-200 pushups after every chest workout. These should no be all done at once, but do them in 4-8 sets. Pushups allow you to gain strength at the bottom of a bench press, where you are most likely to be weak.
Exercise B) If you aren't doing rotator cuff exercises, you are sacrificing large amounts of weight on your bench press, because the rotator cuff is one of the prime stabilizer of the movement, allowing you to move more weight. The other reason is that you are going to blow your shoulder doing heavy benches to gain size, but the injury will put you out for up to 6 months, how big are you gonna get if you can't workout? If you are interested in any exercises, feel free to forward an email to: email@example.com.
Exercise C) Don't just use free-weight benches and flyes. Try using a Hammer Strength chest machine, either the incline or regular chest press. The benefits of this machine is that it better allows you to isolate your pectorals by taking the triceps and deltoids out of the movement. Stronger pectorals will allow for a tighter contraction, which means more growth and strength.

|Caribbean Sauce -By Niven Sookhoo
Ok. This is one of the best ways I have found to make very bland food taste absolutely terrific. Never underestimate the use of good condiments. Ingredients: a few cloves of shelled garlic, sweet peppers, onions, ginger, parsley, chive, sweet peppers, a hot pepper (depending on taste), coriander. Add 1 cup of water to a blender, add the chopped up ingredients and puree. Empty and store in refrigerator. Simply add a teaspoon or so. These are so widely used back home and they are so convenient!
|Forearm Exercise -By Nelson Jackson
I have a cool exercise for building the forearms. Buy a 12 pound, 36 inch, sledge hammer and some hockey tape. Wrap the entire handle with the tape. Next, mark the tape every inch along the entire handle. This is your "Handle of Power". From a standing position, grasp the handle with one hand and try to raise the head of the sledge. Do not bend your elbow! Switch hands. Find a distance from the head, that will give you a 6-8 rep set. Do 6-8 sets. I usually start my workouts with wrist curls...6-8 reps for 6-8 sets, then I do the hammer work, then grips (10-15 reps, 10 sets, with a very LARGE wood clamp, believe it or not - from the local hardware store).
Just try to get to the end of the handle!!! For party tricks, I squash beer caps with the tips of my fingers...

|Aerobics for Everybody -By Nelson Jackson
As an aerobic instructor, I am constantly teased from men in the weight room who view aerobic classes as a FEMALE thing. But the truth is that for anyone to have a well rounded program. Aerobic training is part of it.
I challenged 3 men to try one of my classes. after the class they admitted that is was harder than they thought and admire women for being so tough.
Why do you need to do cardio? to burn off fat you must do some kind of aerobic training. You see weight training and aerobic training goes together like beans and rice. I developed boot camp classes which is very popular with the men.
Aerobic classes in my opinion is better than the treadmill. in the fact that there is Hip music, a lot of support, and constant variety. there is only so much treadmill stuff you can do.
Plus aerobic training helps in the fact that it increases you metabolism. It is proven that after a high intensity class, you are burning more calories after class. Than you would if you just sit there. Plus it works on your endurance system.
It is also very good for the heart and lungs. these are thing that you can not achieve in the weight room alone. So GROUP classes are not a female thing. it is a Everybody thing.
Educate your mind before you judge.
|The Most Important Tip for the Whole Body -By Mohammed Ali Ahmed
In bodybuilding most people thinks that if they do more exercise and eat more then they will develop a good body. Eating more is true for some extend but doing more exercises is waste of time, energy, money and mind. The most important and precious think that I found in bodybuilding is the resting time between your workouts. Whatever type of exercise or workout you want to do you can do but if you do not rest in the right way then you can't able to develop a massive body. (Because muscles do not develop in the training period they only develop in resting period and if your resting period are not long enough then you can't be able to develop a good muscle). So only you can decide that which resting routine is best for you. You can do as follows:
(Different routines)
Apply any of these routines and you will see the results. (If you are a beginner then you should train 6 days on 1 day off for 1 week then again 6 days on 1 day off for second week do the same till 1 months and then apply any of the above routine).

|Personal Workout! -By Adam Wilson
Hey I've been bodybuilding now for about 24 months, and for most of the time I've been quite confused as to finding a perfect workout. Well, recently I decided to blow all this crap that I found on the internet and design my own personal workout. I simply used the knowledge I already have, and integrated that into what I wanted to. I'm not saying that these people are wrong by saying that you need to leave your body at least a week before your workout is again, but this is just shit for me. I have found that doing my new routine (Mon. - legs, Tues. - back n' shoulders, Wed. - chest abs, Thurs. - arms) works real well. It's not this routine that works well, it's the work I do in between the times that has shown me best gains. This extra work is nothing more simple than a few light bench presses, etc. Nothing too hard, just something easy. It has given me more definition to my muscles, and I have noticed slight gains in my chest. But as this is only my 2nd week on this trial test, I cannot say that it is my perfect workout, but at the moment, it seems that way!
|Gain 1/2" on Your Arms -By Bryan
I have found out a great way to build biceps/triceps, fast! I call this my 20-40-80 workout. First you take dumbbells that you would consider, real heavy. Then you do 20 standing curls(10 each arm). After that, you go 20 pounds lighter, and do 40 standing curls (20 each arm). Finally, you drop another 20 pounds off the weight, and do 80 standing curls (40 each arm). Keep in mind you want to have at least "good form" when doing this mini-workout. For even more gains, do this forwards, and then backwards, 20-40-80 then 80-40-20. You can keep going back a forth. This has helped me gain 5.5 pounds in one month, and half an inch on my arms. Trust me, it works!!
|Chest Exercise -By Jimmy Knuckles
I found a great new exercise awhile back (by accident no less) that I've been using for about a month and a half and I've seen results that I never saw as quickly with my old routine. This is a great exercise not only for the CHEST, but it's also hitting the ABS and the LOWER BACK all at the same time.
I was using an Icarian Ab Isolator #702 machine... it's the one where you sit down with your feet on a bar and use your abs to flex forward and push two (or one) pads forward while the bar goes upward pushing your knees into your chest.
I was not using the pedal thing, just keeping my feet flat on the ground and was finishing my last few reps. I got tired while holding the last one while punishing my abs and I flexed my chest. I held my chest flexed and felt it begin to burn. Here's what I've found after doing this for a while:
Use a weight about 50% more than your max for your abs *YOU don't use your abs alone on this**
Lean forward using your back and chest to get the weight so your holding the weight so it can't push back. Then flex your chest and hold for 3 seconds like you do with any exercise to get that 'ripped' effect, then let go. The weight should only move about half an inch, maybe an inch if you already have huge chest.
You push all the weight a small amount with your chest, your abs and back will be hit too while balancing the weight in between reps. I usually max out at about 130lbs for abs, but I do 215 (3 five pound keys on a max 200 lbs Icarian) for this exercise since you don't lift the weight, your only pushing it a small amount forward by flexing, getting ripped while holding, and using your back/abs to 'lean' into getting and holding the weight in position.
Holy shit, I just noticed how long this letter got. Anyway thought I'd pass it on. I noticed that my chest is more defined from abs and more cut by using this just to isolate the flexing of say a bench press exercise. If you got anything else lemme know, I'm trying to find a safe way to strengthening my neck.
Thanks, Jimmy Knuckles
|Shoulder Tips -By Bryan
For shoulder exercises you do not have arm raises listed. These are very difficult exercises and really help with shoulder strength and development.
To Permorm:
|Thor's Hammer -By Thrasher
Thor's Hammer is an excellent exercise I found out.
|Incredible Abdominal Workout -By Sunnraye
Leg Throw-downs is what I like to call them. You will need a partner for this one. You lay down on your back and have your partner stand about 6 inches behind your head. The person lying down keeps his/her feet straight, and lifts them about 110 degrees and his/her partner throw them down, either straight down or side to side. You must let your feet get as close as possible to the ground-but don't let them touch. Just continue lifting your legs in the air while keeping them straight and your partner throws them down. The number of reps differs depending on the skill level of the trainee.
|For Striated Quads -By Jason Bennett, USAFA
When Squatting, keep it slow and focus only pushing up with your heels. When you get to the top Squeeze and flex your Quads for 3 sec hard. Perform 12-16 reps. After the set Stretch and flex for 2 min before your next set. The perform 4 sets of 15 reps of extensions, squeezing at the top for 3 sec. Do this routine once or twice a month with high intensity and watch as your legs become shredded and gigantic.
Be sure to use PROPER technique.
|PreContest Training and Dieting Info! -By Phano Paul Som
First and foremost, the only thing I supplemented with was Xenadrine. I would take 1 in the morning, 1 before my first cardio session, and 2 before my weight training session. I also took a multivitamin with my first meal along with 500 mg of vitamin C with each pill of Xenadrine I took. That's it....nothing fancy. Elegance in simplicity I would tell my training partner...

|Superset Delt Shocker -By Seth Pauley "Big Dog Seth"
I have found a superset technique that shocked my delts immensely after a long frustrating plateau. The side delts have always been my my favorite to watch grow! I found that you can kill them with a superset of dumbell presses directly into a set of wide grip upright rows. I have also found it more beneficial to begin the workout with side laterals to pre-exaust the targeted side delt area. This will allow you to reach a higher level of fatigue in your supersets...

|Strike A Pose -By firstname.lastname@example.com
Train your weak points first, when you are strong and fresh. Remember to pose and flex the muscle group you are working. Posing and flexing your muscles is proven to bring out striations and more "ripped" effect.
Another tip: To get more peaked biceps, or any muscle group, when you reach the top of your movement, contract the muscle you are working and hold for a few seconds. I have noticed results after about two weeks using this method.
|Great Supplementation Program For Mass Building! -By Christopher Greene
As everyone knows a proper diet and supplementation is just as important as lifting weights! This diet and supplementation has worked GREAT for me and I have seen an increase in weight, muscle mass and definition, strength, and recovery time!
MORNING: 5-7 Scrambled Eggs, 2 English Muffins, Orange Juice and/or water! (5 grams of Glutamine, Multi-Vitamin)
MID-MORNING: Protein Shake (Myoplex Deluxe or Weight Gainer), and one Peanut Bar by Lance!
LUNCH: Grilled Chicken Sandwiches or Steak!
MID-AFTERNOON: Canned White Chicken or other high protein food, and one Peanut Bar by Lance.
DINNER: Grilled Chicken or Steak or other high protein food! (5 grams of Glutamine)
EVENING: 10 grams of Creatine HSC (Ast-ss brand) with two capsules of Alpha Lipoic Acid (Ast-ss Brand), and one MRP by Myoplex!
BEFORE BED: 10 grams of Glutamine!
This diet and schedule will help you gain muscle mass and weight and will increase your strength! Make sure you take the Glutamine and Creatine at least 1 hour apart from each other! The alpha lipoic acid will help the creatine get absorbed into your muscles more. The glutamine will help aid in nitrogen retention and strength and recovery. If anyone tries this diet and sees results, please e-mail me and let me know! email@example.com
|Go Heavy To Get Thick! -By firstname.lastname@example.com
I found that if you use a heavy weight on your barbell so you can only get four, maybe five reps per set, it helps alot with thickening your biceps. I grew half an inch in less than three days.

|Train Legs For Big Arms! -By Jeff van Steenoven, 32 year old bodybuiding addict,17 years personal experience, 11 years as a certified instructor.
I've said it all my life. If you want bigger arms, train your legs! The best single movement thet I have found for breaking plateaus is the squat. Concentrate on moving as much weight as you can in strict form for 8-12 reps, 4-5 sets and make it your primary leg movement. This involves recruiting a large amount of muscle and subsequently causes alot of natural testosterone to be produced in the body.
|Bodypart Tips -By PETER VAN
Here are some tips that have worked for me and other people I know. I'm only 190 pounds at 6'2", and I know that doesn't sound very impressive, but it is when you are coming from 149 and 6'1" just 8 months ago. And all the while I never topped 10 percent bodyfat. My average is 7 percent. Good luck!
For Biceps, I usually use handoffs to break plateaus. Handoffs are performed with a medium weight on a barbell, with which you perform 10 reps on the barbell curl, then hand it to your partner and he also does ten reps, you keep handing of to each other until neither of you can do three reps.
For regular workouts, I usually supplement my Preacher curls, with Spider curl, on the other side of the preacher bench.This allows for more extension and isolation. For getting ripped arms, I concur with what is already posted, 21's are excellent.
For back muscles, if you aren't seeing any difference, most likely you aren't going heavy enough. Remedy this by using 150 percent the weight on your deadlifts, but only lower them to your knees. This will Target and Isolate the Rhomboids. Also vary your exercises.
For triceps, do not underestimate the power of supplementing simple heavyweight pushdowns with decline closegrip bench presses in the smith rack. If you don't have a horsshoe, do these two along with rope pushdowns and you'll have them within weeks. That's a guarantee !
For abdominals I recomend doing decline leg raises, starting with a fully stretched body then curling the legs, finally finishing up with your knees at your chest, so your ass leaves the bench. If that doesn't get the burn going nothing will.
For shoulders, just correct form and wide grips will aid the deltoid growth, and more weight will make the traps grow.
One last trick for biceps : Drag Curls for the outside biceps. I trust you know what they are. Just do a knuckle grip on the bar, keep your elows close by your side (like a reverse curl) and your shoulders low. Now move the barbell by alongside your body, as if dragging it.
|Quick Building -By email@example.com
This workout will build your chest and biceps fast. First you do 15 curls with any weight you choose ,then 15 bench presses. Do this back and forth until you do at 200 reps of each. This is good for getting over a plateau... but don't use it everyday or you may overtrain.
|21's -By JT Olsen
Rip your biceps a new one by doing 21's. It is barbell or dumbbell curls where you do 7 reps doing only the lower half of the full exercise (start at bottom, go half way up, go back down), then 7 reps doing only the upper half, then 7 reps doing the full range of motion. All this without stopping. You WILL be sore the next day... and get ready for awesome results.
|Xenadrine NRG -By Anthony Hebert
For people trying to get lean, and cut. I lost 28 pounds of fat and gained substantial muscle by using Xenadrine NRG. I also took in a ton of protein every day. The bottom line is with proper nutrition, and a good workout plan, this stuff will multiply your results...
|Glutamine -By Jerry S.
I read somewhere that a recent study showed that supplementing with glutamine can raise your natural growth hormone big time so I decided to try it. My friends had tried it and it worked for them so what the heck. Within the first few days my workouts were better and my results just started getting better and better. Before I knew it, a month had went by and I had gained so much strength and a good amount of size already. It was awesome and my results have not stopped coming.
|Deadlifts -By Chris Uberago
Adding deadlifts to my HIT workout. I couldn't believe how hard they were at first but I kept at it and I am glad I did! Deadlifts help your whole body get bigger and stronger because they work your whole body and your nervous system. I changed nothing else and since then my body has gotten a LOT bigger.
|Adipo and Triax -By Jessica K.
Heard it was the best combo out there for fat loss... couldn't agree more. Try Syntrax's Adipokinetix and Triax together and you will be happy too.
|Needed Layoff -By Anonymous
I had been working out for over two years with almost no rest. I was then forced to take a week off for a vacation and I almost did no exercise at all. My first workout back was a little tough, but then I couldn't believe how strong I was. I gained a lot over the next two weeks and busted through my plateau! Now I take a week off every eight weeks.

Albuquerque man is indicted in fatal stabbing
ALBUQUERQUE, N.M. (AP) — An Albuquerque man accused of fatally stabbing a neighbor over a dispute about a barking dog has been indicted.
Prosecutors say 33-year-old Ricardo Villanueva-Cordova is facing charges of first-degree murder and [auth] kidnapping.
A Bernalillo County grand jury issued a warrant for his arrest Monday.
Customers of an Albuquerque gasoline station called 911 on June 18, 2013 to report seeing a man being repeatedly stabbed.
The suspect fled the scene in a pickup truck and 27-year-old Michael S. Sanchez later died at a hospital.
Witnesses relayed the vehicle's license plate to police, who tracked down Villanueva-Cordova at his home.
Police say Sanchez had a long-standing dispute over the Villanueva-Cordova family's dog, which was found badly injured earlier on June 18.
Villanueva-Cordova accused Sanchez of running the dog over with a car.

DAVID Cameron was shamed into dragging himself away from his sunbed yesterday as share prices plunged again amid global stockmarket turmoil.
He finally took time out from his £10,000-a-week holiday in Italy to discuss the growing economic crisis with Bank of England governor Mervyn King by phone.
Chancellor George Osborne also rang from California for an update and spoke to European finance ministers just 24 hours after the Mirror told how he, the PM and deputy Nick Clegg had gone AWOL.
But it was not enough to prevent growing calls for the missing Coalition cronies to hotfoot it back to Whitehall and roll up their sleeves - as grim figures revealed 335 people are going broke every day in Britain.
And Mr Osborne faced having to cut short his LA break last night after a crisis meeting of world finance leaders was called.
Italian leader Silvio Berlusconi announced the G7 - representing the world's most powerful countries - would hold talks on rescuing the global economy "within days".
Mr Cameron also made contact with German leader Angela Merkel yesterday evening. A Downing Street spokesman said: "They agreed to monitor the current insta-bility in European and American stock markets closely and keep in close contact about the situation."
But for now, it was left to junior Treasury Minister Justine Greening to leap to the Government's defence.
In a bumbling TV interview, the 42-year-old who was only elected an MP in 2005, claimed: "The Prime Minister and the Chancellor are fully in control and aware of exactly what is happening at the moment.
"You are never on holiday when you are doing these jobs in reality and therefore I think that the Mirror, fine, it can get a front page out of it but I think the substance of it is that we are working to do what we can to support the eurozone."
Her laughable suggestion that it was fine for the Coalition to mastermind events from their sunbeds came as share prices took another pounding here and abroad.
Labour MPs said it was "completely farcical" to leave such a junior member of the Government as the public face of Britain's effort to stem the crisis.
John Mann, of the Treasury Select Committee, said: "Cameron's away, Clegg's away, Osborne's away - and they've left a junior banker in charge. It shows they haven't got a clue what to do and they're having to run for cover."
On Wall Street in New York, the Dow Jones lost 4.3% of its value on Thursday - the largest drop since October 2008. As a result, London share prices started yesterday in freefall, with the the FTSE dropping 3%.
There was a brief recovery around 2pm after better-than-expected news on US unemployment.
But within an hour they were lurching lower again amid growing fears that not enough was being done to tackle the huge debt crisis in the eurozone.
The FTSE ended 2.7% down, wiping another £38billion off the value of Britain's leading companies. That took losses for the past five days to £148billion or just over 10%, making it the fourth worst week since the FTSE's launch in 1984.
Jeremy Batstone-Carr, at Charles Stanley PLC, said: "In 2008, the crisis was affecting banks and financial markets. This time around it's engulfing whole countries."
In Italy, shares had another rollercoaster ride after Thursday's 5% fall. At one stage Milan was more than 2% up but ended the day 0.7% down.
Elsewhere, Tokyo has dropped 5.4% in a week and Sydney 7.2%.
One of the biggest fallers here yesterday was Royal Bank of Scotland which, after being more than 10% down at one stage, ended the day 6.7% lower.
The bank, 84% taxpayer-owned, lost £794million in the first half of this year compared with a profit of more than £1.1billion a year ago. Its massive loss came as it admitted it may never see up to £733million in debts owed by Greece. RBS was also nursing losses of £566million from Ulster Bank as the Irish economy remained in the doldrums. The setbacks triggered the announcement of 2,000 further job losses at the bank, mainly in its investment arm, in the next 18 months.
And the need for action at home was highlighted by new figures showing 30,513 people went broke in the three months to July, the first increase for a year. More than 4,200 businesses were also liquidated in the period, a 4.4% rise on a year ago.
Angela Eagle, shadow chief secretary to the Treasury, urged the Coalition leaders to "get a grip and show some leadership". he said: "I don't begrudge anyone a holiday.
"We all work hard and they have stressful jobs. But I think it is fairly extraordinary that they are all away at exactly the same time."
Further signs of the fragile economy emerged with figures showing a 2.2% slump in shoppers last month.
BRITS turned to Twitter yesterday to ridicule the rudderless government. @brianfmoylan wrote: "WE are all in this together. THEY are on holiday." @km32q added: "Never worked anywhere that let more than 2managers have same time off!"
And even former Deputy Prime Minister Lord Prescott weighed in by asking if Larry the Downing Street cat was in charge.

We stayed 5 nights at the wonderful Riad Baoussala earlier this month during a two week trip to Morocco and we had a most wonderful time there. Dominique, Leah, Rashid and the rest of the team were excellent hosts and made sure we had always all we needed to enjoy our stay. Hence, first of all a big thank you to this wonderful hosts. And also thank you for the very nice gesture of upgrading us to a larger room.
The Riad is in the country-side; about 20 minutes south of Essaouira. We choose it exactly for this reason. We wanted the country-side feel and the remoteness. Its around 3km off the next paved road and provides you the tranquility and peace from such a remote location. But at the same time you will not have a lack of comfort.
There is a rustic feel to the place but it is elegant and well-kept at the same time. The rooms are very spacious and the overall setting also very comfy and relaxed. It all is very more spacious when you might think from the pics on the website. Nice garden with spaces to relax and sit. And a large pool with plenty of space to lounge on comfy chairs in the sun. There is also a large Hammam on the premises and a wood cabin for massages.
We also liked the food a lot and had dinner 3 times there because it was so good. One of the best food actually we had during our trip through Morocco. We also had sometimes little lunches at the pool and it was always excellent quality and huge portions. The prices were absolutely fair for the quality and compared to what other hotels charge it was very fair.
Dominique and Leah and the service team were always making sure that we were fine and that we had all we needed to make our stay perfect. We could rent a car for 2 days through the hotel without much hazzle. The car was delivered and picked up at the hotel and Dominique furnished us with a multitude of ideas and places for outings.
If you want a very relaxed place, the feeling of being at a private place with charming hosts, if you like country-side feel and getting away a bit from the huzzle and buzzle of all, you cannot get a better place. Its certainly highly recommended and we will cheerish our stay there for a very-long time.

I have just updated to VMPlayer 4.0.3 (from 4.0.1) on a Windows 7 host.
All the various guests are configured for NAT networking and DHCP, and before the upgrade every OS could reach out the internet.
Now, out all the several guest images I have, the Linux based ones (Debian and Ubuntu, the latter with vmtools installed) cannot reach the internet anymore. With Windows based guests (all XP), everything is fine as before.
The Linux guests correctly get the IP address from the virtual DHCP. If I use Bridged mode, they can reach the internet too, but I need to avoid that.
What is the best way to troubleshoot this problem?
I have
vmnetcfg.exe available.

What should we give in the "Advanced Bootable Disc" tab?
You don't need to do anything special to make ubuntu ISO as bootable. It is bootable. Just use any image burner program to burn it to ISO. Burn at low speed for better results.
Please make sure you are changing the boot order from BIOS. You will have to hold down the F2 or Delete key or whatever key to enter your bios settings and make the cd drive as first bootable device, (carefully) save changes, and exit.

powered by AFI
For years Mary Pickford claimed the title of "America's Sweetheart" for herembodiment of innocent charm and ebullient optimism. These qualities areabundantly evident in Little Annie Rooney (1925), one of theperformances that defines her cinematic persona.
The genesis of the film began as Pickford was one night wandering through adeserted urban set on a Hollywood backlot. She thought it might beeffective to play a rough-and-tumble Irish girl of the pavements. Seekingfurther advice from someone with a distinctly Irish-American perspective,she called silent comedienne Mabel Normand, who simply suggested, "I'd getan Irish title...and write something to go with it."
In the titular role, Pickford is an inner-city ragamuffin who stirs uptrouble in the tenements during the day, while in the evening tending toher father, a burly, firm-but-fair Irish cop (Walter James). The seniorRooney keeps a watchful eye on Annie's brother Tim (Gordon Griffith), whohas fallen in with a band of streetcorner loafers teetering on the edge ofcriminality. Annie harbors a not-so-secret crush on Tim's pal Joe (WilliamHaines), a handsome tough who seems destined to follow in the footsteps ofSpider (Hugh Fay), the neighborhood ex-con.
During a brawl at a neighborhood dance, Officer Rooney is shot by one ofTim's delinquent sidekicks (Carlo Schipa), who casts the blame on Joe.Devastated by her father's death, Annie clings to the belief that Joe mustbe innocent and endeavors to save him, even as her brother takes gun inhand to avenge the murder of his father.
Haines, who plays Annie's would-be love interest, was a popular leading manin the silent era, but is most famous today for being one of the firstmajor Hollywood stars not to hide his homosexuality. Ultimately Haines's refusal toforsake his lover, Jimmie Shields, damaged his acting career, but fordecades he remained a respected and beloved member of the Hollywoodcommunity. (Joan Crawford called Haines and Shields "the happiest marriedcouple in Hollywood.")
One of the founding members of United Artists, Pickford was perhaps themost powerful woman in Hollywood at the time, not only a top-drawerbox-office star but the head of her own production company. Tired of thesausage-curled sweetheart that she had been playing since the early 1910sunder D.W. Griffith, Pickford used her independence to escape the wholesomewaif stereotype. "I hate these curls!" she once said. "I'm in a dramaticrut eternally playing this curly-headed girl. I loathe them!"
After such departure films as Frances Marion's The Love Light (1921)and the costume picture Dorothy Vernon of Haddon Hall (1924, whichshe co-directed with Marshall Neilan), she felt obliged to provide her fanswith a quintessential Pickford performance. So, as Variety reportedin its review of Little Annie Rooney, "Gone are the long velvetrobes, the flowing plumes, the brocades and white powdered wigs, and Maryis again a smudgy-faced gamin of the streets. She's dirty-hands,dirty-face and all that sort of things, and the fans are going to love herto death."
Pickford's decision to star in Little Annie Rooney was not a totalconcession to the public's desires. Instead of the much-despised sausagecurls, she allowed her hair to dangle in two waist-length braids. At thetime she made the film, Pickford was 32 years old, but was still able toblend in with actors a third her age, testament not only to her diminutivesize but to her gifts of mimicry.
Her juvenile co-stars were probably based on the successful "Our Gang" kids,who had been assembled by producer Hal Roach circa 1922. But the OurGang chums inhabited a more idyllic world than the gritty urban setting ofLittle Annie Rooney. Presaging the dour setting of 1937's Dead End(which spawned the "Dead End Kids"), Pickford's film places itsdirty-faced waifs in a crime-ridden asphalt jungle. Regardless ofthe dour socio-economic circumstances that surround them, the multi-cultirascals maintain their pluck and childish innocence. Only in a Hollywoodreconstruction of tenement life could Irish, Greek, Jewish,African-American, Italian and Chinese children wage war with volleys ofbricks and bottles, all in the spirit of wholesome fun. So bright is theoverriding charm of Pickford that the audience is blind to the story'spotentially depressing setting. A year later, she further challengedaudience optimism by leading a group of orphans through analligator-infested swamp in Sparrows (1926), and again succeeded.
Both Little Annie Rooney and Sparrows were directed byWilliam Beaudine, who was essentially a Hollywood workhorse with a gift forstrictly adhering to budgets and schedules. In the course of hisfifty-year career he directed approximately 250 films and numerous TVshows, ranging from high-profile star vehicles to skid row comedies (suchas Bela Lugosi Meets a Brooklyn Gorilla, 1952). Beaudine was cannyenough to know what the audience expected of Little Annie Rooney,and he kept the camera focused on Pickford as much as possible. In one scene ofunmitigated pathos, the camera is riveted to Pickford's face as Annieresponds to news of her father's death -- releasing a torrent of tears andwoeful expressions of little-girl grief. Few actresses could stand up tosuch a demanding task, but Pickford does so with grace and power. Thepainfully prolonged close-up becomes the emotional core of Little AnnieRooney, and reminds viewers of the remarkable acting talent possessedby Pickford, a genuine mastery of the art that might easily be overlookedamid the woman-child playfulness for which she is more famous.
As if the challenge of depicting Annie's grief were not difficult enough,Beaudine broke the proper mood by yelling, just before the take, "All rightboys, get out the rubber boots, Mary has got to cry!" After Pickford got backinto character, the shoot was interrupted by Rudolph Valentino, whoappeared on the set for an unexpected visit. "At any other time hispresence would have been thrilling and welcome," Pickford later wrote inher autobiography Sunshine and Shadow, "but that afternoon it threwme emotionally off balance. It took me hours to get back into the mood ofthe tragedy of that little girl of twelve. Had it been make-believe andnothing more, I could have turned it on and off at will. But I really wasthat bereaved little orphan."
Pickford may have tapped into a vein of stress that was running deepthrough her own life at the time. Police had uncovered a plot to kidnapthe actress, but could not arrest the culprits until they actuallyattempted to abduct her. Watched by a bodyguard, often accompaniedby police escort, sometimes employing a decoy "double," the actress wasrequired to maintain her usual acting/producing schedule while alwayswondering when the kidnappers might strike. Eventually the men wereapprehended and sentenced to ten to fifty years at San Quentinprison.

By Bret Wood
Sparrows (1926)
Mary Pickford achieved fame and fortune playing a young girl with long golden curls. But when she turned 30, she decided to leave Little Mary behind. So she played adults in Rosita (1923) and Dorothy Vernon of Haddon Hall (1924). Both films were profitable, but didn't do as well as her earlier films. In a signed article in Photoplay magazine, Mary asked her fans, "what type of picture would you like to see me do?" The response was overwhelming: "give us back our Little Mary!" So Pickford returned to adolescent roles in Little Annie Rooney (1925) and Sparrows (1926), in which she played an orphaned teenager who mothers her fellow orphans. It would be her last "Little Mary" role, and one of her best.
Sparrows is equal parts Gothic thriller and sentimental melodrama. Set in a swamp in the Deep South, it's the story of a "baby farm" whose evil overseer keeps the children in squalor. Spunky Mary protects and ultimately saves the children from his evil clutches. The set for the farm was built on four acres of Pickford's studio. Art director Harry Oliver transplanted hundreds of large trees and draped them with two boxcars' worth of Spanish moss. Oliver personally aged every bit of wood used to build the ramshackle farm and barns. Some of the scenes, such as a moonlight chase on the lake, were achieved with a combination of a constructed three-foot-deep lake and miniatures. Cameraman Hal Mohr recalled that for the miniature lake, Oliver used flax seed on which he sprinkled aluminum powder. He then carved a model boat which he pulled through the "lake" with a concealed string, leaving a sparkling, moonlit wake.
Filming the scene in which Mary carries the children to safety through the alligator-infested swamp was a story which Pickford told, with many embellishments, throughout her life. She claimed that they rehearsed the scene repeatedly, with real alligators, and that she carried a bag of flour instead of a baby. But she knew she would have to carry a real baby, and she told her husband Douglas Fairbanks that she worried about putting the child in danger. Whereupon Fairbanks marched down to the set and bawled out director William Beaudine, demanding that the stunt be performed using a double-exposure optical effect. But plucky Mary went ahead and did the scene with live gators and a real baby anyway. At least that's the most substantiated version of the story. But a close viewing of the film shows that the baby is a dummy. As for alligators, it's possible, but not probable, that Pickford rehearsed with the real reptiles. Cinematographer Hal Mohr discounted that as well: "There wasn't an alligator within ten miles of Miss Pickford," he scoffed. He then explained in detail how painstakingly the effect was accomplished. Fake or real, the scene is frighteningly effective.
After Sparrows, Mary Pickford starred in one more silent film, My Best Girl (1927), in which she played a shop girl who falls for the boss's son. Then she appeared in a handful of talking pictures in which she played adult roles, but Pickford soon realized she could never achieve the heights she'd reached as Little Mary in silent films. She retired to her home, Pickfair, where she lived in semi-seclusion until her death in 1979.

If it is a few variables, then they can be added to the 403 error script. I have no idea how they were able to do a POST, when the apache side of things is setup to 'fail/403' if they attempt a GET, let alone a POST.
Would they be using curl remotely, or similar tool ?

I haven't played the real portal yet (have it sitting in my room so someone can give it to me for christmas (I'm hard to shop for)).
It was cool to get a taste of the game in flash, but I had one problem with the game and that was involving accuracy.
I just didn't like how the character slid a little. There were a few accidental falls and electrifying occurances that I didn't intend.
Also, some of the levels that require accuracy and speed with the portals, I seem to have some trouble getting the portal to the spot I want...taking me several times pressing Q or E while moving the mouse the slightest bit to get the portal in the right spot. This was frustrating when ya had a time limit (the energy balls).
Other than those minor inconveniences, this was enthralling and fun! :)

OK, I'm slowly working on the little things with my theme.
I redid my comments a while back, and I guess I don't totally understand what I've done? :/ (no surprise)
What I've got going on is all well and good, I like the results. I was going through a tutorial on separating my trackbacks from my comments.... however what I've got now doesn't even display trackbacks. It does include them in the count.. like on a post with no comments and 3 trackbacks, it will say 3 comments, but show nothing.
I'll just post this up here in case someone feels frisky and wants to take a look, maybe at least help me understand a bit.... what have I got going on here that doesn't display trackbacks?
How would I get them back? (Bonus points for helping me separate the trackbacks from the comments, but if I can understand what's what here, maybe I can work through the reste)
Here's all the code, comments.php on top, functions.php on bottom
Thanks folks!

Sunday Friends Foundation
Rating: 5 stars 3 3 reviews
PO Box 24887 San Jose CA 95154 USA
Sunday Friends empowers families in need to break the cycle of poverty. Children and parents earn basic necessities while they contribute to their community, learn life skills and develop self-sufficiency.
Carefully designed programs create a community atmosphere where English literacy, nutrition, academics and financial and social skills are taught through direct interaction between hundreds of low income families and thousands of community volunteers. Financial responsibility and self-respect are also fostered because participants earn "tickets", then redeem their tickets to "purchase" necessities and toys. Ways to earn tickets include: writing thank you letters to donors, preparing and serving nutritious meals, engaging in educational games, creating artistic and educational displays, producing craft gifts for people in hospitals and nursing homes and tending the grounds. Sunday Friends also provides English as a Second Language instruction, healthy eating classes, financial literacy counseling, one on one music lessons, developmental activities for preschoolers and meaningful holiday activities.

Reviews for Sunday Friends Foundation
This is the best volunteer work I have done for families. It provides life skills learning for each member of the group as well as the opportunities to serve others and earn things for themselves. Because of this the adults and the children retain their dignity and are not cast in a passive hands out role. I work mostly with the children and they are so very proud of the gifts they have made for others such as elders in convalescent homes or children in hospitals. It is great therapy for this old heart to see the smiles of accomplishment and satisfaction on these young faces.
More Feedback
I've personally experienced the results of this organization in...
seeing some of the early recipients of the training and programs of Sunday Friends come back to serve as volunteers themselves.
If I had to make changes to this organization, I would...
try to figure out how to use it as model community service in other locations or develop a training program that people from other places could attend and learn how to make it work where they live.

Expendable Egypt
Why Cairo Can't Broker a Ceasefire Between Israel and Hamas
The similarities between this month's hostilities between Hamas and Israel and those during their last major confrontation, in November 2012, are striking. Hamas and other Palestinian groups fire rockets deep into Israel, and the Iron Dome defense system knocks the projectiles out of the sky. Israel launches aerial strikes on densely populated areas of the Gaza Strip, and militants there shoot rockets back at Israeli civilians.
Yet one thing has changed: the relationship between Hamas and Egypt. In the fall of 2012, Hamas was able to count on the political support of the Egyptian government of President Mohamed Morsi, a Muslim Brotherhood leader. The rise of the Brotherhood in Egypt earlier that year had simultaneously provided Hamas with a new regional ally and redefined relations between the group and Egypt, moving from the mutual deep-seated suspicion and antagonism of the Mubarak years to a relationship built on shared political ideals and respect.
After Morsi was ousted in July 2013, the new Egyptian government launched a crackdown on the Brotherhood at home and assumed an especially harsh posture toward Hamas, calling the group, which was once a branch of the Muslim Brotherhood in Gaza, a threat to national security. Most significantly, Egypt's repeated restrictions on the flows of goods and people to and from Gaza and its campaign to crack down on underground tunnels between the strip and Sinai have deeply hurt Hamas's finances. In March 2014, moreover, Egypt's judiciary banned Hamas from conducting any political activities in the country.

I am creating a cart where there is a list of 5 products that can be purchased under 1 product page (Grouped Product) but the quantity option for each of these products is only 1. Basically my client is selling 1 house plan and there is are 3 options available to purchase 1) to buy a Full Version PDF of the house plan, 2) to buy a Study Version of the house plan, or 3) to buy prints of the house plan. Or to buy all of the above. But the visitor would only buy 1 Full Version PDF or Study Version or 1 Set of Prints.
So it is more of "Yes or No" than "Quantity?" So I was looking at grouped.php and line 32 thinking this is what I would need to edit.
woocommerce_quantity_input( array( 'input_name' => 'quantity[' . $product_id . ']', 'input_value' => '0' ) );
But that's as far as I got. Is there a way to ad a checkbox or something that would allow the visitor to add which products in the group that they would like to purchase rather than selecting a quantity of 1 for the products they want to purchase?

SDCC: Marvel's "Doctor Strange" Combats "Death and Pain" in New Trailer
Comic Books, Film
Even if you don't care for the characterization of Batman's greatest foes as foul-mouthed, trash-talking, crotch-grabbing street criminals, you have to appreciate the impressive (and hilarious) lyrics in this gangsta-rap parody "Straight Outta Gotham."
I mean, come on, it drops a reference to actor Frank Whaley and the 1994 comedy-drama Swimming With Sharks. That has to count for something. But, seriously, this video is great — and definitely not safe for work. Or for home, if you have impressionable children that you would prefer didn't embrace F-bombs (or, for that matter, the erratic filmography of Frank Whaley).
The song "Do You Want to Build a Snowman?" from Disney's animated blockbuster Frozen was given a Gotham-style spin last year with "Do You Wanna Kill the Batman?," a widely circulated parody in which Harley Quinn tries to persuade The Joker to join her for some mayhem. While that tune received a good deal of attention, a more recent animated rendition, unfortunately, has gone largely overlooked.
Animator Michael Smith brings the work of Sydney Amber and Hesychia7 to life in this delightful short in which an incredibly expressive Harley serenades Mr. J. from outside his cell at Arkham Asylum. Smith also provides an animation progression breakdown, which showcases more of the song, before returning to the final (and, alas, all-too-brief) short.
Batman and the Joker were in it together for Parksville's annual Canadian Open Sand Sculpting Competition, winning creators Marielle Hessels of the Netherlands and David Ducharme of Winlaw, B.C. first place at the doubles division (via ComicBook.com).
Titled "My Better Half," the sculpture depicts Batman and the Joker holding hands and sitting side-by-side on a stone bench. The sculpture cuts Batman and the Joker right down the middle, making both characters represent one full figure only when together, a nod to their almost symbiotic relationship as portrayed throughout all kinds of media. The pedestal reads, "My Better Half."
Check out more photos of the award-winning sculpture under the cut.
Alex Ross has debuted a new original painting featuring Batman, The Joker and Harley Quinn, which will be among his exclusives next week at Comic-Con International. Titled "Mind if I Cut in?," it's a sequel to his famed 2003 piece "Tango With Evil," which debuted as the cover of 1999's "Batman: Harley Quinn."
The artist's booth (#2419) will feature limited-edition signed prints, sketchbooks, comics, variant covers and, of course, original art.
Who needs LEGO's Comic-Con International-exclusive Superman playset when you can create your own brick homages to classic comic book covers? Well, as long as you have the creativity, and the right LEGO pieces.
Luckily imgur user Corsairsteel has both, as demonstrated in this gallery of LEGO dioramas recreating covers ranging from Action Comics #1 and Detective Comics #27 to The Incredible Hulk #125 and Batman: The Killing Joke. Most of them even include the trade dress, word balloons and blurbs.
Artist Vartan Garnikyan is an avowed "big Batman fan" who,outside of his work creating posters, DVD packaging and standees for film studios, likes to transform famous paintings into Dark Knight pop art.
You may recognize his "Starry Knight," a mashup of Van Gogh's masterpiece and a Joker scene from The Dark Knight; it's popped up here and there over the past several months. However, there's more where that came from. Take, for instance, "American Gotham," in which Batman and Scarecrow replace the farmer and daughter in Grant Wood's famous painting.
Batman's rogues have always been a colorful lot, but more often than not, their long lists of offenses include crimes against fashion. Or at least they would, if only the Gotham City Police Department had the funding for a Sartorial Division.
Jack Nicholson's Joker famously proclaimed "This town needs an enema," but what Gotham really needs is a makeover of its costumed criminals. Luckily, Highsnobriety is here to help. The magazine enlisted artist David Murray to outfit five of Batman's better-known foes — The Riddler, The Joker, Two-Face, Bane and Mr. Freeze — in key looks from the spring/summer 2015 men's collections.
In times of financial crisis, the world turns to colorful comic-book heroes and villains in this series by Italian artist Alessandro Rabatti.
For "Facebank," Rabatti reworked graphic elements of banknotes from U.S., British and Chinese currency to merge George Washington and Mao Zedong to create Spider-Man, Queen Elizabeth II and Zedong to make Wolverine and Catwoman, and Abraham Lincoln and Zedong come together to form Batman, and so on. Clearly the takeaway here is that Mao Zedong is incredibly versatile.
Reaction to Jared Leto's tattooed Joker from Warner Bros.' Suicide Squad has been decidedly mixed, but cosplayer Mary (aka SuperMaryFace) embraced the new look in a series of photographs by James Gilstrap.
With the help of makeup artist Devan Weitzman, Mary is transformed into the Clown Prince of Crime for an image set that's both fun and unsettling while channeling the spirit of the original photograph posted by director David Ayer.
Despite all of the teasing by Suicide Squad director David Ayer and star Jared Leto, the unveiling of the heavily tattooed Joker on Friday still caught a lot of fans by surprise. While we're no closer to understanding what led the filmmaker to arrive at that look, FilmCow may be able to offer insight into the thinking of the Clown Prince of Crime.
Following a little tease last week, Sideshow Collectibles has debuted its new Joker statue, the first in a collection based on the hit 2009 video game Batman: Arkham Asylum.
Standing 24 inches tall, the "Premium Format Figure" (translation: "zero points of articulation") is decked out in a recreation of his purple pinstripe suit and brandishes the "Ace of Spades" revolver in his right hand. The Sideshow-exclusive version includes "a swap-out laughing portrait" (below) for that extra-creepy touch.
With the help of tattoo artist Kelly Rogers, lifelong comics fan John Engle has spent the past year transforming his back into a tribute to the characters he loves. There, Spider-Man, the Hulk, Carnage and Venom share space with Batman, The Joker and Spawn — Engle enjoys a good intercompany crossover.
However, there was one thing missing: Stan Lee's seal of approval. And over the weekend at MegaCon in Orlando, Florida, Engle got it. The legendary creator signed his back, just above Spider-Man (where else?), then Rogers made the famous signature permanent.
Never let it be said The Joker isn't the sentimental type. After all, he maintains a trophy wall, as depicted in a 2005 commission by Brian Bolland. With a lot of work, and some help from friends, cosplayer Anthony Misiano (aka Harley's Joker) has brought that illustration to life in an unnerving homage.
"Believe it or not, altogether roughly 45 photos were used in the final composition, 16 of which just for the Joker alone," Misiano wrote on Facebook. "You'd never guess how much work really does go into it all."
We frequently marvel at — or else are unsettled by — the uncanny realism of the figures from Hot Toys and other high-end collectibles companies, but they may have found a rival in artist Xiang Zhang.
Based in Shanghai, China, he works with 1/6th-scale models, creating photorealistic likenesses of Heath Ledger's Joker, Tom Hiddleston's Loki, Christian Bale, Scarlett Johansson and more. Make notes that Zhang is so skilled at repainting and implanting hair, that he's frequently accused of using Photoshop to fudge the final results.
The Joker has always possessed a certain flair for fashion, even if that combination of purple, orange and green careens away from haute couture and into haute mess. Sure, the Clown Prince of Crime is clearly a bit of a clothes horse, but he could use some direction.
Enter Bulgarian designer Simeon Georgiev, who's treated Batman's arch-nemesis to a serious fashion upgrade, outfitting his action figure from Batman: The Animated Series — or at least 3D recreations of one — in streetwear from the likes of Raf Simons, Supreme and Thom Browne. Stashed has the full breakdown of what The Joker's wearing.

"Let me introduce you Antalya" Top 5 Page for this destination Antalya Ili by mehbos37
Antalya Ili Travel Guide: 2,130 reviews and 5,897 photos
I have been to most parts of Antalya and here are my suggestions:
If you stay in Antalya ,choose a 2 nights program in Hillside Su Hotel.It is the biggest designer hotel in the world.Very experimental,nice decoration inside.The color of hotel changes in every 3 minutes thanks to the light games...
If you prefer history,fresh mountain air along with clean pebble beaches choose Kemer,Tekirova,Kas.
If you prefer history,endless sandy beaches and big crowd choose Alanya,Side ..
The dead sea is beauitful and quiet and located in far west of Antalya..
The best time to go is May,June,September,October..
July and August is 40 degrees C and if you can't stand the heat ,you may evaporate..
In winter it is rainy and warm.The average temperature is 18 C and most of the elder european tourists choose winter offers.
My favourite Hotels:
Cornelia Resort,Belek (Side )
Corinthia Club Hotel Tekirova
Hillside Su , Antalya
Club Med Palmiye is nice but many familes with kids
Club Med Kemer is famous for romantic holidays and singles.
Fethiye Hillside is the best Holiday village in Turkey.
We stayed in Corinthia Club Hotel in Tekirova and really enjoyed the beach,forests and the journey to the past..
I wish I understand the language..
A piece from Phaselis
- Pros:The best holiday spot in entire Mediterranean
- Cons:Don't choose July and August to go there..
- In a nutshell:Mountains,Sandy and pebble beaches with blue flags,History,style

all I can say next year this hotel will have bigger pool.I and my workmates designed hotel pool again at design office where I work.hope it ll be cool for all visitors.
We love spending our summer holidays in Turkey! This year we'd like to go to Kemer instead of Belek and we are hardly trying to find the best resort there:)
Yasou Mehmet, nice page as always! I do not know about Istanbul but i am coming to stay for 3 months at Kusadasi, maybe we can meet there? ;-)
Very nice photos, but there is no Bosna page? Greetings.
Antalya is one of my favourite places on this planet, even considered finding a place to rent for the winter months. Great pics and tips. Tim
Nice, simple tribute to your friend Ela.
Lovely page, i will hopefully be visiting Antalya in Sep as we are near there in Alanya
Awesome Antalya pages. Too bad you can not join us Saturday night in Chicago for Turkish food at Al La Turka. You will be there in spirit though.
oh WOW! I love your tips. :-)
