What Your Feet Say About Your Heart: Peripheral Artery Disease 101
…arterial walls. It's similar to the kind of buildup we see in the coronary arteries that feed the heart or the carotid arteries leading to the brain. The result of this plaque buildup is restricted blood flow, discomfort, tiredness, heaviness, and cramping. In the early stages of peripheral artery disease,…Read More

obsession maybe?
My daughter thinks I am obsessing about all things to do with CSA and SA. She says she does not know why anyone would want talk and/or read about those things. It seems to her one would rather forget it all. My reply is always the same; had I told someone what happened to me when it happened I would not be in the physical condition that I am now not to even mention all the healing therapy I have gone through. Who knows what I might have achieved in my life if I had not had all my false beliefs delusions. Maybe by telling I would have halted another child or person from being abused. Maybe I would have met prince charming and living now in love for ever after. I always have felt something missing in my life and I think it is pure honest unconditional love. I have never experienced that and now being disabled I never will. I would not wish my life on anyone except the abusers in this world. Who knows?
I do get google alerts on sexual abuse news around the world. I get a strange satisfaction when I read the sentencing of these predators. I say everytime 'one more bites the dust'. even if it is for little while. I do not know why society has not learned yet that pediphiles cannot be rehabilitated therefore once caught should not be allowed to enter society ever again. All the years in prison they probably think about about all their next victims It is all they live for.
I watched the sentencing of one evil person. The child, now a woman addressed the court stating how what happened to her at the hands of this evil person ruined her life and that she is still in therapy. While the Judge was speaking he also said to the evil person that his behavior and what he did ruined this person's life then sentenced him to 7 years in jail. When does 7 years equal an entire life. For ruining this brave woman's life he has to only give up 7 years of his life. Does no one get it? That 7 years may be worth the sacrifice to abuse again when he gets out? It may be worth it to all predators. They even may decide to hide detection by murdering their targets to avoid another stay in prison.
The last few years it seems to me that the whole world has finally gone on a witch/devil hunt to bring them all to some kind of justice. It's about time too. I am not surprised they are finding these evil persons in our places of worship, our colleges, our schools, military, government, the boy scouts, activity centers for the youth, sports. Our children have not and are still not safe from these evil persons.
Thinking about all this and I have wondered how many I have encountered in my life that did not abuse me. In High School I remember a very sad and shy person and she was absent a lot. Someone told me her father beats her. If he marked her up she had to stay home til the bruises healed. Back then no one was by law required to report abuse. So too many people that knew chose to not stick their noses in others abusive ways to save one child from a life of sadness.
Then I remembered a couple of things that caused me to think "WOW that is just wrong"!!!
When my sister was 14 she wanted to go live with my father and his wife and two stepbrother's (my mother and father remarried each other when I was 18). Just before she left she told me she was having an 'affair' with the married man she babysat for. I am only assuming that she was moving in with my dad cuz this guy would not leave his wife for her. What was she thinking she was only 14. I should have told but I didn't and I don't know why I didn't tell my mother. But hey mom set a great example of having an affair of her own with a married Doctor for seven years. I think my sister would have been punished but so would have the man at least his marriage would be damaged. My sister has been so messed up since the evil stepfather CSA her when she was 11. If I had been with her he would not have touched her cuz it was me he hated and loved to abuse so I have always felt kinda guilty for that.
Then I remember something else. My mother and grandmother used the same mechanic for their cars for years. This man owned his own shop and he told my mother that one of his employees would like to date me if it was alright with her and me. Since my mother and grandmother have known the owner for years my mother trusted his judgement. So I went on this blind date. We were suppose to go to dinner then a movie. He immediately drove me to is home which he rented with another guy. That guy was not there. He said that we had some time and he would like to get to know me better and we could chat for awhile in his livingroom. My gut said 'no' but I was stupid and went inside.
At first it seemed as if he was sincere and talking with him did not set off any alarms and I was relieved as he asked questions and seemed interested in what I had to say. Then after 20 minutes he tells me that for some reason when he is interested in a girl he has to have sex with her early in the relationship because he loses interest in that girl. He voice changed while saying this idiotic statement and he at that point also looked menacing. I was instantly afraid. He grabbed my arm and walked me into his bedroom. I should have ran out of the house but again I was afraid.
His bedroom was messy and dirty. There were clothes all over the unmade bed. I can still recall the smell of his dirty sheets. It did not take him long and we were dressed again I asked him to take me home. He did thank God. When I got home my grandmother and my mother were asleep. I went in the bathroom and (sorry to be kind of gross)when I wiped the rubber was on the toilet paper. I started to cry and cried through my very hot shower. I felt so dirty and knew I would be worrying if I was going to end up pregnant.
I only told my mother and grandmother I did not like him. He called me the next day and I told my mother I would not speak to him so she told him not to call me again. This guy was 27 years old and I was 16. My mother knew how old he was. What mother would set up a blind date for their 16 year old daughter with a man that was 9 years older. They did have laws back then for statuary rape. If I told perhaps he would have been thrown in jail.
Two weeks later the owner of the car repair place told my mother that that "nice" man working for him was sent to a mental hospital (reason unknown)not working for him anymore.

Despite a 46-8 win, Interboro's postgame speech was subdued.
Kneeling players quietly listened to their coach, lacking the typical post-victory exuberance, as Steve Lennox's speech focused on topics other than wins and losses.
During Saturday's victory at Chester (2-7 overall, 1-3 league) in a Del-Val League matchup, Interboro (4-4, 2-2) lost senior captain Sonny Armstrong to a fractured right forearm with only two games left in the regular season, and four players, including one from Interboro, were ejected from the game after a fight in the fourth quarter.
Armstrong, who had six carries for 91 yards and a score and a 17-yard touchdown catch in a little more than a quarter of play, got hurt while making a tackle on defense.

Unlike her cosmopolitan brothers and sisters who spread Zionism and tribal racism using a liberal and progressive disguise, Melanie Philips is open about it all. The other day she defined what Zionism is in a very clear manner:"For me racism is categorically wrong and it is that very realisation that made me into a devoted opponent of Israel and of Zionism. Anyhow, in case you in find an idea or a thought in my writings that may contain a trace of racism please contact me immediately. I will then either clarify my position or amend my text."
Gilad Atzmon (Hebrew: גלעד עצמון, born June 9, 1963, Israel) is an Israeli-born British jazz musician, and is known as an author and activist who is critical of both Zionism and Judaism.His album Exile was BBC jazz album of the year in 2003, and he has been described as "one of London's finest saxophonists".[4] Playing over 100 dates a year, he has been called "surely the hardest-gigging man in British jazz". His albums, of which he has recorded nine to date, often explore political themes and the music of the Middle East. He has also written two novels, which have been translated into over 20 languages.
"Zionism," writes Philips, "is simply the movement for the self-determination of the Jewish people. And its significance is greater than any other movement of national liberation because Judaism itself rests upon three legs — the people, the religion and the land. If one is lopped off by having its legitimacy denied, the whole thing collapses. That is why anti-Zionism is far more than an unpleasant political position. It is a direct attack on Judaism itself."
Philips doesn't leave much room for speculation. For her, not only is Zionism a legitimate national movement, 'its significance is greater than any other movement' because it rests upon 'three legs'. Thinking about it for a second, it is indeed significant for something to rest upon three legs, I myself rest upon just two legs and a bit. Occasionally when I stand naked in front of the mirror I wish I were Zionism.
As Philips maintains, Zionism is indeed an amalgam of three Jewish ingredients: the people, the land and the religion. It is this very composition that makes Zionism into an epic victorious narrative. It is this very mixture that made Zionism into the 20th century collective symbolic identifier of the Jewish people. It is Zionism that has managed to reinvent the Jewish people as a nation with a lucid ideological, spiritual and geographical aspiration. Yet, as much as Zionism makes a lot of sense to very many Jews around the world, it makes less and less sense for those who fail to be chosen i.e., the rest of humanity. The reason is simple, Jews may be welcomed to celebrate their symptoms collectively but they are not exactly entitled to do so at the expense of anyone else.
Known and very popular cialis coupon which gives all the chance to receive a discount for a preparation which has to be available and exactly cialis coupons has been found in the distant room of this big house about which wood-grouses in the houses tell.
Zionism has managed to interpret Judaism as a brutal license to plunder and kill. It transformed a spiritual text into a land registry. It primarily invented the Jews as nation. It then set for the newly born nation a task of immoral geographical aspiration with some devastating racist colonial implications.
One may wonder, how did Zionism managed to be so successful, how did it manage to get away with murder, and how has it done so for so long? At the end of the day, the lethal mixture of 'land'-'religion'-'people' stands in complete opposition to the post-war Western cultural and political narrative (cosmopolitan / multi-cultural / multi-faith / open borders).
I tend to believe that Philips' equation Zionism = Judaism is the most effective Zionist tactic of them all. It leads towards a severe paralysis of most humanist opposition of Zionism. The reason is obvious, ordinary ethical beings do not know how to comb the knots out of this shattering formula that leads them to criticism of a religious belief system.
In fact one way around it is to dispute Philips' equation. Zionism doesn't equal Judaism. Zionism is a mere radical narrow interpretation of Judaism. It takes the biblical plunderous narrative and turns it into a daily practice. It takes the Judaic moral notion of chosenness and turns it into crude supremacist agenda. Rather than Judaism, Zionism is in fact the true genuine face of Jewish ideology. It is racist, it is chauvinist, it is seeking power; but it is different from Judaism, for Judaism is centred around the fear of God and Zionism is totally fearless. Accordingly, It will be right to argue that to oppose Zionism is to oppose Jewish ideology or what I myself define as 'Jewishness'.
It must be said that Zionism regards itself as an enlightened rational movement. To a certain extent, as an ideology and praxis, it tries to understand itself, it seeks explanations or at least justifications in rational and historical terms (rather than ethical ones). Melanie Philips, it must be said, is offering a coherent argument. She says, 'this is what we are', taking this from us is a dismissal of our right to be.
I believe that Philips framework is correct, it is her terminology that is slightly confusing. It is not Zionism = religion but rather Zionism and Jewishness that are intrinsically connected. If we want to oppose Zionism for real, we set ourselves into an inevitable conflict with Jewish ideology. To oppose Zionism is to admit that we have a serious issue with Jewish nationalism, with Jewish tribalism, with Jewish racist ideology, with Jewish supremacy and Jewish collectivism. To oppose Zionism is to admit that we have a problem with the 'Jewish thing'.
However, it may be noted that if Zionists such as Philips are entitled to suggest the equation between Zionism and Judaism, the opponent of Zionism should not be reluctant to do the same and to extend the critique of Zionism to Jewish ideology and beyond.
I mentioned numerous times in the past. As it happened, it is actually Zionists and Israeli dissidents who seem to push the anti-Zionist discourse ahead. The reason is pretty simple. Israeli dissidents are far from being reluctant to expose or reflect on their collective past. Unlike the tribal Diaspora Jewish left activists that are quick to dismiss any complicity in Israeli crimes by shouting "not in my name," some Israeli dissident voices tend to take direct responsibility. They understand the notion of guilt and they turn it into responsibility.
A month ago Haaretz published an article by Uri Avnery in its 'Israeli Independence Day Special Edition. 'Living With The Contradiction' was an attempt of an Israeli humanist to face his own original sin within an historical perspective.
Avnery is an astonishing writer. Though I tend to disagree with him on various issues, the man is no doubt a leading voice of reason in that doomed state. Unlike Melanie Philips who supports Zionism from afar, Avnery was a commando soldier in 1948. He was himself personally involves in the creation of Israel. "We knew that if we won the war, there would be a state and that if we were defeated there would be no state - and that we would not be around, either."
Unlike Melanie Philips who speaks about 'a land', Avnery was one pf those who invaded the land and expelled its habitants.
"We left no Arabs behind our front line, and the Arabs did likewise," and yet, Avnery, unlike Phi;ips, realises that the Zionist amalgam People / Land / Religion leads towards disaster. Israel's original sin is not is not exactly a recipe for peace.
"How then is it possible," asks Avnery, "to reconcile the contradiction between our intentions and feelings at the time, when we established the state and paid for it with our blood, pure and simple, and the historic injustice we inflicted on the other side?"
He continues, "It is necessary for our mental health as a nation and as human beings, and it is the first step toward future reconciliation. We must admit and recognize the consequences of our actions and repair what can be repaired, without disavowing our past and youthful innocence." Avnery goes out of his way to explain rather than justify the 1948 sin, yet he is searching for reconciliation. He understands that the Jewish state will be doomed unless it faces its past.
I wish that those who contribute to the Palestinian solidarity discourse would have the courage exhibited by Philips and Avnery. I wish that like Philips, we would have the courage to equate Zionism with Judaism yet to use it as a critical shift. I wish we could look at the Nakba like Avnery with fear and yet to draw the necessary conclusion, to demand the right of return.

This photo has "Weidenfeld" written in Hebrew on the back. We believe this is Tzvi or Aharon Hirsch Weidenfeld and his wife, Fanny (?). We do not know who the other people in the photograph are. They may have lived in Jezupol, Galicia, which is very close to Stanislawow. But, the photo was taken in Stanislawow.

Slevin Kelevra
Played by: Josh Hartnett
- An Offer You Can't Refuse: Basically why Slevin is caught doing the dirty work of two rival mobsters. It's either do as he's told or be killed. Actually, that was All According to Plan.
- Best Served Cold: "Fuck you both."
- Catch-22 Dilemma: Working for both bosses presents the problem of having the other side likely killing him for succeeding. Subverted in that Slevin is revealed to be playing them both against each other in order to avenge his parents.
- Crouching Moron, Hidden Badass: Despite his smartass behaviour and slightly dorky attitude, it turns out that Slevin was trained by a world-class assassin, and is quite The Chessmaster.
- The Chessmaster: Surprisingly, he plays both The Rabbi and The Boss like a fiddle.
- Deadpan Snarker: In part due to his condition, Slevin has no problem snarking even in the face of imminent danger.
- The Everyman: Unlike most of the other characters, Slevin is relatively down-to-earth and just normal. Subverted as it's exactly what he wants others to see him as.
- Flirting Under Fire: Slevin and Lindsey build up most of their romance in this manner. Despite the fact that Slevin is on the hit list of two warring gangs, he and Lindsey find time to flirt, go to dinner (where Slevin is able to shadow a man he has been told to kill), and spend a night together.
- Laser-Guided Tykebomb: Raised from childhood by Goodkat to one day enact a brutal revenge on those who wronged him.
- Meaningful Name: Slevin is the name of the horse race—Lucky Number Slevin. Kelevra means "bad dog", referencing his relationship to Goodkat, as well as Brikowski.
- Mr. Fanservice: He spends most of the first half of the film in just a Modesty Towel. Lindsey keeps trying to get a look.
- Obfuscating Stupidity: It turns out that his condition may or may not be faked. Behind the dorky, smartass persona is a Crouching Moron, Hidden Badass that is capable of playing two mob bosses against each other.
- Pre-Mortem One-Liner:"You destroyed everything I ever loved. Fuck you both."
- Revenge: His real motivation.
- Revenge by Proxy: Murders both The Rabbi and Boss's sons for this exact reason. Their deaths are simply a means to an end in the long run.
- The Scapegoat: Both the Rabbi and the Boss are quite happy to use him as one to get to the other. Slevin is not only fully aware of this, he's counting on it.
- Shirtless Scene: Spends a good portion of screen time in nothing but a towel.
- Trauma Conga Line: He informs Lindsey about how he came to be in his current predicament. He lost his job, comes home to find his girlfriend cheating on him and then gets mugged. Then a bunch of gangsters show up, mistake him for someone who owes them a lot of money and it gets worse from there. It turns out the whole "bad day" story was a fabrication and he deliberately engineered the case of mistaken identity as well.
- Walking Spoiler: If you read anything tagged as spoiler you might have spoiled The Reveal.
- You Killed My Father: The reason that he plays both The Boss and The Rabbi against each other, since they killed his family.
Played by: Bruce Willis
- Ask a Stupid Question...: "How'd you find out?"Goodkat: "I'm a world-class assassin, fuckhead. How'd you think I found out?"
- Badass: Effortlessly dispatches two armed guards when they try to kill him.
- Badass Moustache: Seen in flashbacks from when he was younger.
- The Chessmaster: Being a world-class assassin, he has to plan everything meticuously. Slevin got it from him.
- Guns Akimbo: When he takes out Yitzchok's bodyguards.
- Hitman with a Heart: It turns out that when Slevin was a child, he refused to kill him because he Wouldn't Hurt a Child. After realising that Slevin helped Lindsey fake her death, he lets her live and leave with him.
- Kansas City Shuffle: He discusses this trope with Nick before giving him a lethal demonstration when he breaks his neck.
- Kick the Son of a Bitch: Nick Fisher initially appears to be relatively normal, but he turns out to have been a child rapist. Not too hard to feel sorry for him after Goodkat offs him.
- Mentor Archetype: To Slevin.
- Morality Pet: Turns out to be Slevin.
- Parental Substitute: To Slevin, given his father dies in the origin.
- Professional Killer: He works as an assassin.
- Softspoken Sadist: He may be Hitman with a Heart, but he is still ruthless enough to take the jobs no one else does. And not once does he raise his voice in the entire film.
- Spanner in the Works: Had The Boss and The Rabbi offed young Slevin themselves, Goodkat wouldn't have spared Slevin and helped him with his revenge years later.
- Wouldn't Hurt a Child: After being brought in specifically to off one, he spares young Slevin and raises him as a Laser-Guided Tykebomb.
Played by: Lucy Liu
- Accidental Pervert: Though not so much on her attempt to recreate the event a second time. According to some sources, Lucy Liu actually did get a good look at Josh Hartnett during that scene...
- Flirting Under Fire: With Slevin.
- Faking the Dead: Though it turns out Goodkat never bought it.
- Hospital Hottie: She works as a coroner.
- Manic Pixie Dream Girl: Subverted in that Slevin turns out not to be The Every Man who needs a "kick" in his boring life after all.
- She Knows Too Much: The reason Goodkat feels she needs to be dealt with permanently. She survives, and when he finds out he's content to let her live.
The Boss
Played by: Morgan Freeman
- Appropriated Appellation: It's actually the reason he and the rabbi stopped working together. You can't have two guys called The Boss, and he was the one everyone assumed to be the boss.
- Asshole Victim: He definitely had his fate coming.
- The Chessmaster: Prides himself of being this. He's wrong.
- Deadpan Snarker: His reaction to Slevin asking about Slim is showing his corpse and wondering why he isn't answering.
- Even Evil Has Loved Ones: His son and wife.
- Faux Affably Evil: He sounds pretty calm and restrained, but he is always making coy, veiled threats with his words.
- The Killer Becomes the Killed: The Boss and The Rabbi murder Max and most of his family. Several years later, Max's son destroys everything he cared for and kills him (plus the Rabbi) the exact same way that he did.
- Laser-Guided Karma: Slevin kills his son and then suffocates him exactly the same way The Boss did to his father.
- Meaningful Name: Why do they call him "The Boss"? Because he's the boss.
- Only Known by Their Nickname: It's eventually revealed to be Anthony in his final conversation with Shlomo (The Rabbi).
- Revenge: The plot is kicked off due him wanting to get his upon the Rabbi.
- Smug Snake: He thinks he is "the cat" and Slevin is "the mouse", but when all is said and done, he is no match for Slevin.
- Unwitting Pawn: Plays right into Slevin and Goodkat's scheme.
- Villainous Breakdown: As he is about to die, the Boss becomes erratic and screams a lot.
The Rabbi
Played by: Ben Kingsley
- Affably Evil: He actually sounds pretty friendly when he talks to Slevin, threats to his life apart.
- Asshole Victim: While he comes off slightly more sympathetically than The Boss, he was still a murderous crime lord that killed almost an entire family for petty reasons.
- Bald of Evil: He has no hair, and fits the "evil" part pretty well.
- Even Evil Has Loved Ones: He loves his son.
- Face Death with Dignity: While the Boss gasps and despairs as he dies, The Rabbi merely gives a resigned stare to the horizon.
- The Killer Becomes the Killed: The Boss and The Rabbi murder Max and most of his family. Several years later, Max's son destroys everything they cared for and kills them the exact same way that they killed Max.
- Laser-Guided Karma: Slevin kills his son and then suffocates him exactly the same way The Rabbi did to his father.
- Meaningful Name: Why do they call him "The Rabbi"? Because he's a rabbi.
- No Honor Among Thieves: Tried to murder his former criminal partner the Boss. Why? Only one person can be the boss. Since Anthony was called The Boss most assumed he was the one ultimately calling the shots. That didn't sit well with The Rabbi. So he felt he had to remove the "confusion" over who was running the show.
- Only Known by Their Nickname: It's eventually revealed to be Shlomo in his last conversation with Anthony (The Boss).
- Religious Bruiser: A scene is dedicated to him elaborating on this concept.
- Rules Lawyer: He takes on a pretty liberal interpretation of rabbi culture to justify his gangster life.
- Sawed-Off Shotgun: The Rabbi's weapon of choice.
- Tranquil Fury: When he threatens to kill the Boss, he says it very calmly.
- Unwitting Pawn: Like his rival the Boss.
- Wicked Cultured: He discusses films with Slevin.
Yitzchok The Fairy
- Cadre of Foreign Bodyguards: The Rabbi hires two Badass Israeli bodyguards to protect his son from assassination.
- Meaningful Name: Why do they call him "The Fairy?" Because he's homosexual.
- Revenge by Proxy: The Boss wants him dead in order to hurt The Rabbi and avenge his son. Though it turns out this is actually Slevin's real reason for killing him too.
- Straight Gay: Despite the name, he's not Camp Gay.
Detective Bad Dog Brikowski
Played by: Stanley Tucci
- Asshole Victim: Slevin offs him by shooting him in the head. He murdered Slevin's mother, so it's karmic.
- Danger Takes a Backseat: How he meets his end.
- Dark Secret: He murdered Slevin's mother.
- Dirty Cop: He's a gambling addict, and it turns out he murdered Slevin's mother.
- The Gambling Addict: The Boss's bookie used to be his bookie. Brikowski even says he basically handed over his paychecks to him.
- Jerkass: Not a very likable guy when first introduced and by the end is even less sympathetic.
- Laser-Guided Karma: Invoked by Slevin, who makes sure he knows exactly why he's about to die before killing him.
- Trapped by Gambling Debts: Its implied that it was so bad he killed Slevin's mother to wipe his debts clean.

Migraines & Headaches Health Center
Migraine or Sinus Headache?
Headache pain along with a stuffy, runny nose and itchy, watery eyes. Sounds like a sinus headache, right? Think again.
More than 4 out of 5 people who think they have a sinus headache actually have a migraine.
"It's such a widespread misconception," says Peter Goadsby, MD, who heads the University of California, San Francisco's headache program. "It's the size of the problem that stuns me."
Here's why it matters: Treating a migraine like a sinus headache, or vice versa, doesn't work.
Differences in Symptoms, Causes
Sinus headaches and migraines can have some symptoms in common, including:
- Pain in the head, particularly the forehead
- Itchy or watery eyes
- Pain when you move
But migraines often happen with other symptoms, including:
A migraine is usually to blame in people who have severe headaches that happen often, says neurology professor Stephen Silberstein, MD, of Thomas Jefferson University. He wrote the American Academy of Neurology's guidelines on migraine diagnosis and treatment.
"If you walk into your doctor's office with disabling headache pain that comes and goes, 95% of the time it's migraine," Silberstein says. "People with sinus infections don't complain of headache first. They say they are sick and have a headache."
Sinus headaches are usually caused by an infection and inflammation of the nasal passages. That leads to congestion. And that causes pain and pressure in the forehead and behind the cheekbones.
Different Treatments
For sinus headaches, treatment starts with decongestants, pain relievers, and nasal irrigation to ease sinus pressure and congestion, and to help drainage.
Antibiotics or nasal steroids are often a second line of attack to treat the underlying infection.
A sinus headache caused by an infection should go away soon after you start treatment.
Migraine treatment isn't just about stopping a migraine once it starts. It's also about preventing them and reducing how often you get them, how long they last, and how severe they are.
People can take drugs called triptans during a migraine attack to ease pain and get back to their daily activities.

Released: Feb 01st, 2006
Running Time: 138
Director: David Perry
Company: Zero Tolerance Entertainment
Cast: Liliana Ferri, David Perry, Lolita Angel, Maria Bellucci, Miu Lee, Sarah James, Choky Ice, Bruno SX, Katy Caro, Mick Blue, Leda, Roly Reeves, Vanessa (I)
Critical Rating: AAA 1/2
Genre: Gonzo
From the banks of the Black Sea, on the seacoast of Hungary, comes this nice little display of juicy Eastern European pussy getting roundly fucked. Yes, much in this vid is standard Euro method-fucking: lots of sloppy gagging on cock, multiple anal and d.p., and the obligatory close-ups of gaping, well-stretched assholes.
Well, this one gets it right more than it doesn't. Yes, it has its stretches of forgettable fucking (see Sarah James thinking of England, and just ignore the plastic closer), but from Katy Caro's moaning grin as David Perry dips his dick in and out of her ass, to Miu Lee suckin' Bruno SX's cock on the dock and the pale Leda getting her round butt filled in the reeds, the good stuff nicely outweighs the average.
Retailing: A few copies up front of the anal section and the foreign/European shelves.

THUNDER BAY -- A north-side family escaped their home without injury after a smoke alarm alerted them to an early morning fire.
About 22 firefighters responded to the fire at a Blucher Avenue home just after 2 a.m. Monday.
Platoon Chief Joe Grzelewski confirmed that the residents reported the fire after being woken up by their smoke alarms.
"We attended the scene and were able to put the fire out fairly quickly," Grzelewski said in an interview with CKPR Radio. "The home did suffer some extensive smoke damage and some fire damage as well."
Firefighters finished their investigation early Monday afternoon, and say the cause of the fire will remain undetermined.

I am using WordPress as a CMS for my portfolio and I'm still in the process of setting up my page templates. I have a custom page template that shows only posts from one specific category. I set it to show only 5 posts per page and then direct the user to page 2. But on page 2, the stylesheets are not being applied at all even though it is using the same page template that worked for all other pages. This happens with both FF3.0.11 and IE6.
(Scroll to bottom to click to page 2)
And here is my custom loop which I think is the source of the problem.
<?php $page = (get_query_var('paged')) ? get_query_var('paged') : 1;
while ( have_posts() ) : the_post() ?>
<?php the_content('', FALSE, ''); ?>

Positive: Really big screen. Neg: Everything else! Setup for 15K 42'L 13'H 5thWheel. It tried to route me through a known propane restricted zone, then tried to route me through a low bridge (11' clearance#. Maps are current, restrictions both in-place over 20 yrs. Contacted Magellan and they blamed their map provider. My 8 yr old Tom-Tom is more accurate and user friendly. Volume is not speed sensitive, and your voice choices are limited to only one that sounds like Siri on my iPhone. I selected this GPS over many others with similar screen size and features but this got the best reviews. Not sure why anyone would give this more than 2 stars unless Magellan was paying them. Free maps equates to 2 updates per year and free traffic works only if traffic data is being broadcast over radio waves. Traffic has never come on once #even while stuck in it#.I waited 3 months after asking customer service to address the issue before submitting this review - no reply. As a Good Sam member I am disappointed they would allow her name to be placed on such an inferior product.
I purchased this at the start of our cross country trip from Northern CA to Orlando Fl. Our total length is 60 ft and our height is 13'4". It took some getting used. Example: At interchanges she would say stay to the left. So I would get in the left lane – oops! There are 3 lanes going left and 2 going to the right including the slow lane which is typically where I stay. This happened several times before I realized if I looked at the screen I would see how many lanes there are. So now I look down to check the screen. Sometimes this works and sometimes it doesn't! Biggest problem has been when she says stay to the left followed by . . . too much time going by before I hear the stay to the right! When you're in a state that has a towing speed of 70 mph you come up on the stay to the right rather quickly! And when there is traffic, well let's just say that since I'm larger than most I put my turn signal on and start moving over. The over speed limit has been frustrating. The hwy sign will say 60 mph but the GPS says 55. I originally set it to notify me when I was 5 mph over the speed limit. I did 5 mph over because in some areas they look for out of state plates! So she's constantly doing the "WARNING… WARNING…WARNING" Gets quite annoying. I have since changed the setting to 5 mph over on surface streets & 10 mph over on hwys. I've used most of the other functions also. To find a station that has diesel AND where I can get under there awning has been interesting! So far the height setting hasn't worked for me. So I stay to truck stops, if they can get under so can I. Prior to getting the GPS I missed a turn and had to go under a train crossing with a posted height of 13'6". Looked in my mirrors & saw all the traffic behind me stop, well behind me, as I went under! I like being able to choose the settings I want. Ie. Avoid toll roads, fastest route, most freeways etc. In San Antonio TX the traffic ahead came on. I clicked on bypass which saved a lot of time. I would have been stopped for quit a while, due to an accident, without it. The restaurants, stores, entertainment, camp ground etc. settings have all worked well and have come in very handy! Over all I'm very pleased with it. Wish it had a setting for % grades ahead. After burning my brakes going into Death Valley and seeing a motor home burn up at the camp ground because their brakes got to hot, I purchased the Mountain Directory for the West & East Coast which has saved me! Better to know ahead of time which gear you need to be in then to find out afterwards when you're going to fast and you can't downshift!

(1524?-80). Regarded as Portugal's national poet, Luis de Camoes left his homeland in 1553 as a young poet and returned 17 years later as a mature one. It is probably this long absence that accounts for how little is known about his life. His reputation is based on a small body of finely crafted lyric poetry and on his epic poem The Lusiads, published in 1572.

The significant difference between the ESPNU 150 wide receivers in the Class of 2012 and other recent groups at the position is speed.
This class doesn't have a lot of tall possession types. In fact, only two of the top-10 receivers are 6-foot-2 or taller.
What the class does have is good high-end speed in the top 10 and one gem atop the group. Dorial Green-Beckham of Springfield (Mo.) Hillcrest is one of only four wide receivers to crack the overall top 10 in the past five years, joining Julio Jones and A.J. Green (class of 2008) and USC's Robert Woods (2010).
There are 19 receivers in the ESPNU 150, which is three fewer than last year but not a significant drop-off statistically from the past five years, which shows the average class to have 20.25 WRs in the 150.
Green-Beckham is the only five-star prospect in the group, with a rating of 86. Cayleb Jones, No. 2 at the position and No. 20 overall, had a grade of 83. Five wide receivers have a grade of 82, five are at 81 and seven are at 80.
Keep in mind that wide receivers are everywhere. It is the easiest position to find and one of the easiest to evaluate on film.
Top prospects
Dorial Green-Beckham (Springfield, Mo./Hillcrest)
6-5, 220
College: Undeclared
When you talk to coaches about Green-Beckham, one statement that always seems to pop up is, "You should see him play basketball." Physically, Green-Beckham is the perfect chemistry experiment -- height, strength, long arms, soft hands, a good leaper, and he can win matchups on skill set alone. He is the closest thing to Calvin Johnson or Julio Jones we have seen in terms of pure tools. Against this level of competition he stands out dramatically, but we also see significant competitive intangibles that up his game against elite talent.
Cayleb Jones (Austin, Texas/S.F. Austin)
6-2, 195
College: Texas
Jones is one of the faster big-bodied prospects in this class, but what we feel really stands out about him is his ability to make things happen after the catch. His initial quickness to elude in the open field and reach top speed quickly is very impressive for his size. He is smooth and fluid considering his height, and while he is a real mismatch downfield one-on-one in the deep passing game, it is his well-rounded set of tools that places him at No. 2.
Chris Black (Jacksonville, Fla./First Coast)
5-11, 170
College: Undeclared
The fastest of these three prospects and one of the fastest in the entire class, Black displays some of the best zero-to-60 speed and overall change-of-direction skills this class has to offer. He lacks the physical prowess of some of today's bigger receivers, but in this day and age, in a game that is played in space offensively, Black not only stretches the field but also turns quick passes such as bubble screens and underneath routes into home runs.
Others to watch
• If Thomas Johnson (Dallas/Skyline) has a full healthy season, we would not be surprised to see him move into the top three prior to February. Texas WR Mike Davis of the 2010 class is a very favorable comparison, only Johnson isn't quite as tall. As a ball carrier out of the Wildcat or as a pass catcher, Johnson is dangerous with the ball in his hands.
• LSU commit Avery Johnson (Pompano Beach, Fla./Ely) possesses a terrific blend of size and athleticism along with deceptive speed as a long-field receiver. He is acrobatic and shows very good body control when contested one-on-one. We feel Johnson could develop into a fine red zone, jump-ball prospect for the next level.
• Dominique Wheeler (Crockett, Texas/Crockett) displays terrific acceleration ability both vertically and after the catch. He is not quite as big, but he has similar qualities to Cayleb Jones after the catch. He is a fine player with natural run instincts with the ball in his hands.
• One of the most explosive WRs in this class has to be Miami commit Angelo Jean-Louis (Wellington, Fla./Palm Beach Central). Much like Chris Black, only bigger, Jean-Louis is terrific in the open field and shows separation speed and quickness to make big plays after the catch.
The rest of the pack
Oklahoma commit Sterling Shepard (Oklahoma City, Okla./Heritage Hall) could be this year's version of Ryan Broyles, only bigger (and just like Broyles, under the radar a bit). ... Durron Neal (St. Louis/De Smet Jesuit) is thickly built and ultra-athletic with excellent open-field run skills. ...Clemson commit Germone Hopper (Charlotte, N.C./Phillip O. Berry) is one of the better space players in this class and makes a lot of home run plays with the ball in his hands. ...
Notre Dame commit Justin Ferguson (Pembroke Pines, Fla./Flanagan) blends size, strength and deceptive speed, on top of being a red zone target. ... Texas Tech commit Reginald Davis (Tenaha, Texas/Tenaha) was virtually an unknown commodity a few months ago, but it wasn't long before his lightning-quick change-of-direction skills and speed drew significant interest. ... WR Darius Powe (Lakewood, Calif./Lakewood) has size and speed, and is one of the best WRs on the West Coast . ... Drae Bowles (Jackson, Tenn./Jackson Christian HS) is big and physical with really good quickness and big-play ability. ... What LaTroy Pittman (Citra, Fla./North Marion) lacks in speed he makes up for in size, strength and savvy, and he catches everything. ... Dwayne Stanford II (Cincinnati/Taft) is the ultimate red zone target with leaping ability, long arms and good body control. ... Derrick Woods could also be considered an ATH with his experience on defense. ... Malcolm Lewis (Miramar, Fla./Miramar) is shifty and explosive with very fluid route-running ability.... Another Westlake Village (Calif.) Oaks Christian prospect with high upside is Jordan Payton. Payton is not a burner, but he is smooth and shows the size and frame development to become a quality outside target.

The air sanitizer is too noisy to be placed in any room where conversation is common. The hand vac is stylishish but hard to grip and handle. I have relegated this unit to my basement.
its like a dust buster with a bonus! I love this thing!!! I wanted an air filter and I needed a dust buster and this is 2 in one. It's a little loud but it doesn't bother me, and if it needs to be shut off there is a switch to turn off the air purifier thing. I love love love this! I'm 31 and it's my new favorite toy/household item
I purchased two of this product and they are wonderful. I keep one in the den for fast clean ups. I keep the second by the kitty litter box.
I got this in a bundle with a vacum and I'm not sure it was worth it.
The filter is so tiny and when you need another one it has to be ordered.
I was planning on using it for quick clean-ups for around the table.
The shape makes it hard to hold but it does pick-up ok.
It may clean the air but I don't know for sure if it helps.
I charged it for over 24 hours and when I used it the first and only time, it died in a short time, what a waste!
This works really well and is not any louder than a fan running.
I assumed the photo shown in the ad just didn't show the handle but there isn't one. Unit is hard for me to hold securely and angle of the suction tip is hard to get flat to floor. Suction not very strong.
We bought this vacuum because they no longer make the black and decker Kone or Kurv that we have in our living room and love. This was is similar in that you can keep it out at all times and so are more likely to actually use it. Unfortunately, it's currently unplugged until we can find a better location because the UV air sanitizer has a fan to it that makes a constant whirring noise :o( We're looking for a way to disable the fan, and then it will be perfect.
I dont know why everyone is complaining about the noise from the air sanitizer. Its a very low whisper, not at all distracting. I keep mine in the family room on the side of the couch to clean up the kids snack off of the floor and to clean up any general small mess around the downstairs living area. Easy to use. Not too big. Works great. Plus it was on clearance for only $25!
it has help with picking up allergens in the air as a hand held vac needs a little help with vac power

September 13, 1994 – Clint Black: Behind the Scenes of His New Videos
When Clint Black directed his video for "Summer's Coming," he did a few performance shots in front of the camera, but had funnyman Howie Mandel be the star.
Howie was the one who had to run up and down Malibu Beach like a madman while the Southern California sun blazed down on his head. He was the guy who had to squint rather than risk pinch marks on his nose. He was the one who had to keep lunch from spilling onto his shirt.
Clint was the guy who told him what to do.

Thank you!
Christmas will be here in no time and then a new year. My, oh my, where did 2011 go?
Happy December! :)
I see your new tagline...WOO-HOO!
How you been? All the kitties doing OK?
Our kitties are generally doing fine. After 8 straight months of fostering kittens (about 30), it seems so peaceful and quiet around here with just OUR kitty crew. Of course, Gracie (she's an 11-year-old black and white Maine Coon girl) managed to catch ringworm (it's a fungus) from the last batch of kittens, so she's being treated for that and is in isolation for another 6 weeks or so. She gets a cream on her ear, she's taking an oral med, and she goes once a week to the vet for a lime/sulphur dip. Who knew ringworm was so complicated, huh?
We had a quiet Thanksgiving ~ we went over to some friends house and there were just 6 of us, which was nice. (We don't "do" family holidays, so it's always nice when someone adopts us and feeds us turkey!) Our Thanksgiving tradition is to take about 10 loaves of bread and a 40 pound sack of feed and hit a local pond+park to feed the ducks, geese, Canada gees, wood ducks and coots. As always, that's fun.
On the home front, we've decided to tear out the carpeting in one of our rooms (sort of a den) and replace it with vinyl flooring that LOOKS like hardwood, but isn't. We keep a lot of cats in there, and life will just be easier with flooring that can hold up to cats, cleaning, disinfectants, moisture, etc. We will move furniture this weekend, since they're coming bright and early on Monday morning. The biggest hassle will be figuring out where to stash the 3 cats that normally live in there ... but they should be fine on our enclosed patio ("Catio") with their heated pet beds for a few hours, I'm sure.
I knew you fostered but that's a lot of kitties! Sorry to hear about the ringworm...I've heard it's very trying to get rid of.
I think the 3 will do just fine when they have to spend time in the catio...it looks more comfy than a lot of peoples livingrooms....lol.
Are you still biking all those miles? Your dedication was/is to be admired. And the weight loss was amazing!
Perhaps we'll see you around more! *hugs*
December Wishes and Christmas Blessings to you as well. And, a belated WTG on your 12th Freeper Anniversary! (I was just perusing that thread!) :)
I believe that all Scripture is related and all Scripture is relevant. Nevertheless, I was surprised when my November reading in the book of 1 Peter touched on all four themes of Adventthat period of time on the church calendar when many Christians prepare to celebrate the first coming of Christ while looking forward to His second coming. During Advent, we emphasize hope, peace, joy, and love, which God sent with Christ.
HOPE. We have an inheritance reserved in heaven, a living hope through the resurrection of Christ from the dead (1 Peter 1:3-5).
PEACE. We will love life and see good days if we turn from evil and do good and if we seek peace, for the Lord watches over the righteous and hears their prayers (3:10-12).
JOY. We have inexpressible joy even though we have trials because our faith is being tested and proven genuine. The end of this faith is the salvation of our souls (1:6-9).
LOVE. We can love one another with a pure heart because we have been born again through the Word of God which lives and abides forever (1:22-23).
Because Christ came the first time, we can live with hope, peace, joy, and love till He comes again.
Read: 1 Peter 1:3-5,13-21
Its so nice to see you two this morning! Wishing you all a very Happy December!
This makes me smile, yorkie! Its sunny here but COOOOLD! The sun will surely warm things up some, thank goodness!
What an adorable baby! Thank you!!
Thanks for the beautiful December opening, ladies! Brrrr!
A sweet face anyone would love, teenie.
Wonderful Daily Bread lesson this morning, Mr. Mayor.
Thank you for lifting us up!!!
There is a cold front moving in - and we will probably get snow tonight. Flagstaff is expecting two feet of the white stuff, and we are just high enough to get some of it!
There won't be much sun here today, as that cold front will last for 24 hours.
California had some very high winds last night - over 60 miles an hour. What a mess, with downed trees and over 14,000 without power.
Have a great Thursday - and stay warm!
May your day be a good one!
My neighborhood already has houses decorated and lit up. Do not want to see their electricity bill! And with the high winds today they may have to rescue some of those decorations from their neighbors yards...lol.
The wind is still blowing up here. Some of the back fence next door blew down. Half the town was without electricity yesterday. We have been lucky so far.
I have to go up the hill today and it's not gonna be fun! Interesting, perhaps, but no fun! ;)
A winter wonderland for sure!
Thank you.
How are you feeling today?
Hope all is going well for you. That smile is such a great graphic! I have it somewhere but have never used it as when I think about it, I can't find it! lol
Well, save it from my Comment! LOL!
Good idea...lol.
I am always coming up with those. hee hee
Yes you are. :) However, I think someday I'll take some time and sort out my files and put them in some kind of order. I've always been an orderly person at work and home but now that I have no schedule...uh...not so much! lol
Thank you, teenie..feeling better..I must be out and about tomorrow so I am grateful.
First of all, thank you for your comments and prayers yesterday and last night.
Today's session lasted 6 hours - constant IV feedings. Got some meds to counter nausea over the next few days. Another session schedule next Thurs and the following Thurs. One week off the three more sessions.
My only discomfort is my R leg is a bit more wobbly tonight. Probably from all the trips to the rest room today.
December opening is TERRIFIC!
I managed to get the lights on the tree yesterday. I'll post some pics in a while after I get them posted to photobucket.
Yea..You are here with update..Sounds like a long session, Dave. Prayers the chemo and anti nausea pills work..
I always love your Christmas pictures.
(((*HUGS* and Prayers)))
Prayers for you to be able to keep your strength up and the nausea at bay. God bless you, friend! (((hugs)))
Great job on the lights, Dave..I LOVE that ornament..!!!
(((((Hugs and Prayers)))))
(((((Goodnight, and God Bless)))))
Luv, I remember some of 'those kinds of days' from last year. When I hear its coming, I try to get out and prepare as sometimes we don't know how long the weather will keep us shut in. I'm a coward and do not drive in that weather!
I don't blame you for not wanting to drive in stormy weather. I have told my manager that I won't make my 20-mile each way drive to work if it's icy or snowy. People around here are idiots on bad roads. LOL!

I am reading C for Dummies and am doing a example in the book. It told me to write it out line by line. Then it proceeds through the book even though the code has bugs. Here it is:
#include <stdio.h>
int main()
char me[20];
printf("What is your name?");
printf("Darn glad to meet you. %s!\n".me);
According to gcc:
WHORU.C: In function 'int main()': WHORU.C:8:19: warning: format '%s' expects argument of type 'char*', but argument 2 has type 'char (*)[20]' [-Wformat] WHORU.C:9:43: error: request for member 'me' in '"Darn glad to meet you. %s!\012"', which is of non-class type 'const char [28]'
Because I am new to C, I can't really point out where I did wrong. I do know that this code requires input when it's executed. It's kinda like scanner in java.
Thanks guys.

The Rajkumar College (or RKC) in Rajkot is one of the oldest K-12 institutions in India. RKC has a 26-acre (105,000 m²) campus in the heart of Rajkot city.
The foundation stone of Rajkumar College was laid in 1868. The institution was designed by Colonel Keatinge and was formally opened by the Governor of Bombay, H. B. Sir Seymour Fitzgerald, in 1870. The college was founded for the education of the princely order by the princes and chiefs of Kathiawad for their sons and relations.
In 1938, on the initiative of its founding members, the college became a public school (private school in American terms). The college is a founding member of the Indian Public Schools Conference and a member of the Round Square conference of schools, a worldwide association of more than 60 schools that allows students to travel between schools and tour the country or do community service.
In 2001 the college opened its doors to girls, in what has been a boys' bastion for over a century. The school has around 50 girls, with boarding facilities.
Another endeavor of the Rajkumar College Administration has been Priyalok Villas, a pre-school program for the kids; originally housed in a 1909 Hyde sanatorium but now housed in a different building. Whilst having its own domain, it has access to all the facilities of the Rajkumar College.
The school is expanding. The Rajkumar College for Girls, a secondary school was inaugurated on March 24, 2011; before this, the fully functional elementary co-ed school had flourished for a decade.
Inauguration of the Rajkumar College for Girls, Rajkot[edit]
The Rajkumar College for Girls was inaugurated on March 24, 2011, by Kamla Beniwal, governor of Gujarat. The principal, Mr. Thakkar, said that it was a special day for the Rajkumar family. Almost 140 years ago on 16 December 1870 the college was inaugurated by the governor of the Bombay Presidency, Sir Seymour Fitzgerald and another venture of the same college was being inaugurated by a governor, the first lady of Gujarat.
Student life[edit]
Sport teams from the college travel around the country to participate in inter public school competitions and district/state/national level events.
Co-curricular activities include public speaking/recitation/debates, bio-enrichment camps, and other cultural activities.
The college motto is Yasya Bhuddhi, Balam Tasya ("Power is where there is knowledge").

Restaurant-Style Egg Drop Soup
Total Time
Prep 5 mins
Cook 10 mins
I added in a small amount of soy sauce and some cayenne pepper, but that is optional, this is really good! You can double this recipe if desired!
Ingredients Nutrition
- 4 cups low sodium chicken broth, divided
- 1⁄4 teaspoon salt (add in more later if needed)
- 1⁄8 teaspoon dried ginger (or use fresh ginger)
- 1 teaspoon fresh minced garlic (or to taste) (optional)
- 2 -3 tablespoons chopped fresh chives
- 1 1⁄2 tablespoons cornstarch
- 2 eggs
- 1 egg yolk
- black pepper (optional)
- Reserve 3/4 cup broth and pour the remainder into a medium saucepan; add in salt, ginger, garlic (if using) and chives.
- Bring to a rolling boil.
- In a cup or small bowl stir together the remaining broth and cornstarch until smooth; set aside.
- In another small bowl whisk the eggs and the egg yolk together until well combined.
- While the soup is boiling drizzle the egg mixture a small amount at a time into the boiling soup (the egg should cook immediately).
- Once the eggs have all been dropped into the soup, reduce to a light simmer; slowly and add in the cornstarch/broth mixture mixing continuously.
- Delicious!

Yum. I used green onions rather than chives and whisked two eggs. Perfect taste and thickness for us. I need to remember to make this more often.
I essentially ended up doing everything in my power to make this recipe not work (unintentionally, of course), and it STILL tasted WONDERFUL! I am living in Shanghai and really wanted some good egg drop soup like back home, ran across this recipe and went for it. I didn't have most of the ingredients, so I subbed onion powder, garlic salt, powdered ginger, and chinese (fake) chicken bouillon powder. It gets worse from there. I had to heat the water to incorporate the bouillon, then got over-zealous at the wonderful smell of the soup and removed the reserved stock and, without thinking, threw it into my cornstarch (yes, hot, ugh!), then hurriedly whisked together 3 whole eggs. Next time I will use home-made chicken stock, green onions, fresh ginger and probably add some sliced water chestnuts and cubed chicken. I think I will also try it with 2 egg whites and one whole egg as the eggs were pretty heavy. And DirtyPaws?: if you let the stock boil at a slow to medium rolling boil you can get the large ribbons by drizzling the egg from one side of the pan to the other. You will still end up with some small flakes, but mine were nearly all intact.
Wow. This really tastes just like I ordered it from a restaurant. I used regular chicken broth, garlic, and substituted scallions for the chives. The ginger really makes this good. I'll be making this again and again!

Drove into work today with a big grin on my face and it certainly gets noticed. i thought about black and silver but black is a whore to keep clean and too many silver cars about!! absolute treat to drive, so well put together with a very nice smooth power delivery. totally effortless to drive! I used to own a few crazy jap turbos like evos and skylines but this is much more classy and refined so well happy. have put the audi extended warranty on it as you never know, just been serviced by the previous owner at 46k miles so hopefully some happy good motoring. would it be a 210 or 225 model? not that it matters to be honest!!

Best of five P35's
Subject: Motherboards | August 14, 2007 - 05:50 PM | Jeremy Hellstrom
TweakTown has gathered 5 motherboards based on the P35 chipset. ASUS, ABIT, ECS, Foxconn and Gigabyte are all represented, so read the full review to get a look at who has implemented the P35 chipset best, and of course; who gives the best extras.
Coming to terms with DDR3
Subject: Motherboards | August 10, 2007 - 01:32 PM | Jeremy Hellstrom
The ASUS Blitz Extreme is almost a clone of the Blitz Formula, the difference lying in the memory controller. The Blitz Extreme is the DDR3 version of the P35 based board, giving early adopters the ability to use the new type of memory. Find out if [H]ard|OCP found it to be a better choice than the Formula.
Better the RAM you know
Subject: Motherboards | August 7, 2007 - 02:56 PM | Jeremy Hellstrom
ASUS' new addition to the Republic of Gamers lineup is the P35 based DDR2 Blitz Formula motherboard. [H]ard|OCP was amazed by the overclocking ability that this board possesses, eclipsing the Commando and the P5K Deluxe WiFi-AP Edition that previously impressed them. Add the LCD and LED informational displays and the feature set, and you have a very nice high end board.
AMD's new chipset strikes again
Subject: Motherboards | August 2, 2007 - 12:07 PM | Jeremy Hellstrom
The AMD 690G chipset is undergoing a revision, specifically it's the BIOS that is being tweaked. The onboard graphics will have proper support for HD quality video and significant improvements to the overclocking potential. The Tech Report has some pictures of a new Gigabyte board, and a bit more details on what to expect from this chipset's second wave.
Dolly, the motherboard
Subject: Motherboards | August 1, 2007 - 01:41 PM | Jeremy Hellstrom
ASUS is the next manufacturer to offer a pair of P35 motherboards, the Blitz Extreme which supports DDR3 and the Blitz Formula which is a DDR2 board. These boards are essentially twins, in Techgage's review, they have a picture of the boards side by side, and there are no visual clues as to which board is which. Check out the surprises these clones have!
1333MHz FSB on the 680i
Subject: Motherboards | July 20, 2007 - 01:25 PM | Jeremy Hellstrom
Trying to get a QX6850 to work, at full speed, on a 680i motherboard proved a challenge for many, including AnandTech. Using an EVGA 680i board and the brand new P30 BIOS, as well as the new ASUS Blitz and P5K Deluxe, they tested the overclocking ability for the CPU and RAM. One of the key points in the article is that this new BIOS makes it very easy to push a 1066 processor to 1333, but they have much more than that to report on.
One G33 Express mobo, hold the IDE
Subject: Motherboards | July 17, 2007 - 02:24 PM | Jeremy Hellstrom
The ECS G33T-M2 has an onboard Intel GMA 3100 graphics chipset, a Gigabit NIC and 7.1 HD Azalia, as well as 1 PCI Express x16, a PCI Express x1 slot a pair of PCI slots and 4 SATA slots. What it doesn't have is any IDE channels. It also supports 1333MHz FSB and DDR2. Read on to find out what PC Stats thought of this all inclusive entry level motherboard.
Make mine a Gigabyte
Subject: Motherboards | July 13, 2007 - 01:19 PM | Jeremy Hellstrom
Gigabyte's GA-N680SLI-DQ6 has everything you would expect from a 680i motherboard. Support for 1333MHz FSB, SLI and solid capacitors, along with a bright colour scheme and copper heatpipes for the chipset. The testing Hot Hardware put it through proves that this motherboard can compete with any of the other enthusiast class motherboard on the market, both in speed and features.
Another graphics company moves to motherboards
Subject: Motherboards | July 10, 2007 - 05:29 PM | Jeremy Hellstrom
Hot on the heels of eVGA, XFX has released a pair of motherboards, the 680i LT and the 650i Ultra. Both are C2D boards, and are capable of supporting a 1333MHz FSB, and have all the onboard goodies you would expect, although only the 680i supports SLI. The full review at Legit Rev
A motherboard for all operating systems

Low profile bling
Subject: Motherboards | June 25, 2007 - 01:33 PM | Jeremy Hellstrom
Gigabyte has kept the tradition of P35 boards with the P35T-DQ6. Featuring solid state capacitors cooled with enormous, but low profile copper heatsinks. They have gone for a passive solution, allowing silence from you chipset cooling, and leaving you enough space for a titanic CPU cooler. [H]ard|OCP found the supported DDR3 allowed them to reach a synchronous CPU FSB of 400MHz @ 1600MHz<
A proper copper ... motherboard
Subject: Motherboards | June 19, 2007 - 01:43 PM | Jeremy Hellstrom
It seems easy to spot a P35 based motherboard from afar, just look for the board with the copper roller coaster on it. In the case of the ASUS P5K3 Deluxe, look for the heatpipes that embrace the LGA775 socket, which are low profile enough not to interfere with any of the monstrous heatsinks needed to cool the C2Quads or C2DExtreme chips. Join [H]ard|OCP as they put this motherboard thr
DDR2 on a P35 from MSI
Subject: Motherboards | June 14, 2007 - 12:11 PM | Jeremy Hellstrom
The MSI P35 Platinum offers all the advantages of the P35 chipset like the 1333MHz FSB but it is built to use DDR2, saving you from paying the current premium on DDR3, assuming you can find it for sale. The passive cooling solution on this board is very unique, and may be what gives this board it's overclocking ability. Although this is the first P35 on the market, HotHardware found it very sta
Handy dandy diagnostic card

BIOS beep codes driving you nuts? Even worse, is your system speaker dead, and you don't even know what beep code is playing? OCIA has posted a review of Soyo's TechAID, a PCI card with LEDs that is supposed to display the error code associated with whatever is traumatizing your motherboard. Read on to find out if it does it's job well, or if it's just better to invest in a motherboard that has a display built into it.

There is showdown today at HotHardware, between MSI's P965 Platinum and the Asus P5B-E. The ASUS board may be lacking in some features, like CrossFire support, but the BIOS is perfect for tweakers, as there are lots of settings you can adjust to get the syst
System on the cheap
Subject: Motherboards | May 29, 2007 - 06:20 PM | Jeremy Hellstrom
The ECS AMD690GM-M2 is available for under $100. With the price cuts on AM2 processors, it's onboard Radeon Xpress 1250 and LAN, all you need is a case and a monitor and you are ready to go. It even has a 16X PCI Express slot if you want to upgrade your graphics. All in all, PC Stats was rather impressed at what this board delivers.
MSI's manageable mid-range motherboard
Subject: Motherboards | May 24, 2007 - 11:50 AM | Jeremy Hellstrom
MSI's P6N-SLI Platinum is based on the nForce 650i SLI MCP, and also sports Realtek ALC888HD audio. While the BIOS doesn't sport many features and limits your chance to overclock, it is more the job of it's big brother the 680i to satisfy users with those needs. [H]ard|OCP found it to be a solid board for those looking at price and basic functions, not overclocking and a dozen USB p
More on the P35
Subject: Motherboards | May 22, 2007 - 04:20 PM | Jeremy Hellstrom
Legit Reviews managed to get a hold of 2GBs of Kingston's PC3-11000 HyperX that runs 1375Mhz @ 7-7-7-20 and 1.7V. They also tried Corsair's PC3-10600 XMS3 DHX, 1333MHz @ 9-9-9-24 and 1.5V. They tested their DDR2 modules on an ASUS P5K Deluxe and the DDR3 on an ASUS P5K3 Deluxe. It seems that even with these high speed DDR3 modules, there isn't any overwhelming gain to be received by switching from DDR2.
The P35 has come
Subject: Motherboards | May 21, 2007 - 03:04 PM | Jeremy Hellstrom
While we have seen hints of what Intel's new chipset can do, until today we have not seen enough to really judge. Now that the NDA has expired, you can get a lot more information. Start off at [H]ard|OCP and get information on both the P35 that is targeted more for gamers, and the G33 with it's integrated graphics.

I don't think it even matters if Premier can somehow prove that none of the bodies were of murdered political prisoners. Those individuals and their families didn't consent to the cadavers' use. That makes it exploitative.
The Health Department sent out an inspector to look at the claims that the bodies might be dangerous or leak.
The report stated that the claims are without merit.
They came from China. They are almost certainly prisoners. Political prisoners or not, I can't say, but certainly prisoners.
Eh. They're dead. I rather dislike our concept that bodies should be hermetically sealed in a box in the ground, separated from the universe until Judgement Day. Gimme a leaky pine box so I can rot properly and feed the worms, or barring that, preserve me and put me on display.
"There's no evidence that Premier obtained these bodies illegally or unethically—but then, they haven't provided any evidence to the contrary."
This is the U.S., where you are innocent until your accuser proves you are guilty. You are not guilty until you prove your own innocence, Brendan.
I think the lawsuit is the pinnacle of irony. A museum whose mission is to explore various mysteries and claims to be educational is suing to stop an exhibit that explores life's mysteries (the function and building blocks of the human machine) and most definitely is educational.
Premier must prove that the bodies *aren't* prisoners? Pretty difficult to prove a negative, especially a dead negative.
By the way, does anyone know what is done with the bodies of the executed in the US? Some are donated to science by consent. If not, where are they buried or cremated and who pays for that expense? It has to be the government, no? Does the government "own" the bodies of prisoners just like they owned the living prisoner? It brings up a some interesting legal paradoxes.
These new plastinate anatomy exhibitions are amazing. The one on display in Boston was one of the more powerful experiences of myself as a mortal and material creature that I have had. But the huge demand for these exhibits seems to have had some perverse effects on the supply.
Compare this frank discussion in the FAQ page of Gunther von Hagens' BODY WORLDS 2:
The BODY WORLDS exhibitions rely on the generosity of body donors, individuals who bequeathed that upon their death, their bodies could be used for educational purposes in the exhibition. All of the full body plastinates and the majority of the specimens are from these body donors; some specific specimens including the fetal development display, and those that show unusual conditions come from old anatomical collections.
"I think the lawsuit is the pinnacle of irony. A museum whose mission is to explore various mysteries and claims to be educational is suing to stop an exhibit that explores life's mysteries (the function and building blocks of the human machine) and most definitely is
The Seattle Museum of The Mysteries does explore mysteries and have ghost tours, but they do not have naked,skinned, bodies of unconsenting people. We are totally in favor of "exploring life's mysteries" but there is no reason or purpose to do it with naked Chinese unconsenting cadavers, except to attract people who enjoy the "gross-out" factor and pride themselves on getting sick to their stomach, and therefore having the exhibit rake in tons of money. Premier Exhibitions is not a museum, medical institution, or even an educational facility. Its major purpose is to make money for its stockholders.
Von Hagen clean? Who do you think developed the processing plant in Dalian China where these cadavers are made?
"I can't prove the bodies weren't executed, but I believe they weren't" - Gunther von Hagens (real name Liebchen), BBC News Jan. 22, 2004
How convenient.
"This is the U.S., where you are innocent until your accuser proves you are guilty. You are not guilty until you prove your own innocence, Brendan."
WOW. Are you one of those people who still believes in the US and The Federal Judiciary? wow.
but aside from that...
I think it's a complete exploitation. I also find it suspicious that in all this debate they've stayed undercover and havent hardly said a word about it all. hmm....
Did Hitler ever go to trial?
I think Seattle is figuring out you can't side step the truth.
I also hope the cadavers haunt the exhibitors. We'll probably read about some ancient Chinese curse that comes to people who defile the bodies of the weak and poor.
This exhibition is already banned from several states, countries and cities.

Re: UP,Re: Prostate Cancer - Consider Proton Therapy Treatments

It's great to have you back UBUP!
Thanks for posting this superb information! DH's dad had prostate cancer but no one in his family is familiar with this treatment. Thanks for making it easier for folks to research and learn about appropriate and helpful options.
Most of all, thanks for bringing your great personality back to the forums! And glad you got to work on your golf swing while you were in the midst of everything else.
There is absolutely nothing wrong with my golf swing...I go 18 holes under 80...
(if it gets any hotter than that, I just leave my clubs at home, and merely "water" myself at the nineteenth hole)
Thanks, beamMEup...it's good to see you, too! And I hope all is well with DH's Dad.
