The lewd behavior that New York mayoral candidate Anthony Weiner engaged in suggests he is struggling with more than bad behavior and could be dealing with a variety of issues driving his problematic sexual behavior, experts said.
But doctors, clinical psychologists and sex therapists differ on the role of biology, as well as issues such as anxiety, depression and insecurity.
Fred Berlin, director of the Sexual Behaviors Consultation Unit at Johns Hopkins Hospital, said many of his patients exhibit behavior similar to Weiner's, although he and other experts cautioned that they could not speak to the former congressman's specific situation.
"It's driven behavior," said Berlin, a psychiatrist who has been treating patients for more than 30 years. "People are feeling they are pushed to act a certain way even though their intellect and their conscience may be telling them otherwise."
Berlin said he has treated patients with problematic sexual behavior from all backgrounds and levels of society. People with this type of behavior are energized by a powerful biological force, he said. Other factors, such as anxiety or depression, may play a role.
"But fundamentally, there is a driver there that they are not resisting for whatever reason," he said. "It really is about sex."
He likened it to someone who is going on a diet to lose weight. That person may be convinced they want to stop overeating when they're not hungry, he said. But when they get hungry, they may not be able to stop themselves and end up gorging. The person is genuinely sorry afterward, he said, and then the cycle repeats.
In 2011, Weiner resigned from Congress after he admitted to sending lewd pictures of himself to young women. On Tuesday, he acknowledged that under the pseudonym "Carlos Danger," he again sent graphically explicit texts and images to young women more than a year after stepping down from political life.
Berlin and others said that in the past five to six years, they have seen a significant increase in the number of patients with problematic sexual behavior related to the Internet, including inappropriate chatting, accessing inappropriate images and engaging in virtual relationships.
In addition to making it easier for people to say and do things they might not otherwise, the Internet has become a delivery system through which someone can get access to an unlimited number of partners and sexual fantasies, said Michael Radkowsky, a District of Columbia psychologist who treats couples and individuals with sexual issues. The human brain is wired to look for sex and sexual partners, he said.
"Our brains have all these receptors looking for sex, and there's the Internet providing all sorts of opportunities for sex. Wham, plugs right in."
Experts disagree on whether this type of behavior should be considered an addiction.
The American Psychiatric Association considered including "hypersexual disorder" in its most recent edition of the guidebook that psychiatrists and other mental health clinicians use to diagnose mental disorders.
Among the symptoms associated with that behavior, according to preliminary criteria, are recurrent and intense sexual fantasies, sexual urges or sexual behaviors over a period of at least six months that interfere with other important activities; are in response to stressful life events; or are undertaken while disregarding risk for physical or emotional harm to self and others.
The issue sparked huge controversy, experts said, and ultimately, the behavior was not included in the updated Diagnostic and Statistical Manual of Mental Disorders, or DSM-5.
David Kupfer, chair of the DSM-5 task force, said the disorder may interfere with a person's life, "but the empirical evidence on the condition was not strong enough to support including it in DSM at this time."
A recent study from the University of California at Los Angeles questioned the validity of sex being addictive. Past research has shown that when addicts view pictures of their drug of choice, their brain activity spikes. Psychiatrist Nicole Prause thought she might see the same type of response in possible sex addicts when viewing images of people having sex - but she didn't.
Rather than an addiction, hypersexuality could mean possessing a high libido coupled with other factors such as impulsivity, said Prause.
Whatever it's called, experts also disagree on other issues involved in the behavior.
"With men like Anthony Weiner, it's rarely about the sexual component. There are usually other issues, like grandiosity - thinking that rules don't apply - or certain personality characteristics," said Rachel Needle, a West Palm Beach, Fla. clinical psychologist and certified sex therapist of the American Association of Sexuality Educators, Counselors and Therapists.
To treat people like Weiner, one also needs to understand what role the sexual behavior is playing, she said. "What is it helping him with controlling anxiety? Or feeling not good about himself?"
Thinking that rules don't apply to them is a common personality characteristic of people in power, not just in politics, but also in sports, she said, citing the problems of golf star Tiger Woods, who apologized for cheating on his wife in 2010 after weeks of tabloid reports of marital infidelity with as many as a dozen women.
Hani Miletski, a Bethesda, Md. sex therapist, agrees that other issues besides sex are often involved.
"It never happens in a vacuum. There are always other things going on," she said.

Double Deception
An Inconvenient Wife
The Lady in Gray
An Unsuitable Match
An Inconvenient Wife
The Lady in Gray
An Unsuitable Match
Somehow the promise didn't quite pan out, perhaps because the romance between the heroine and the hero lacked intensity. Lady Fanny Wentworth and Colonel Derek Sheldon start off not liking each other very much and Oliver never quite succeeds in showing why or how this antagonism turned to love.
Lady Francesca St. Ives had been married to the Duke of Cranborne at a young age. Then, after flirting one evening with the man she thought she loved, Gerald, Viscount Penryn, she awoke to find him in her bedroom. Her husband arrived at the next moment, accused Fanny of adultery, beat her badly, and proceeded to divorce his wife. Fanny's
family -- except for her aunt -- abandoned her. Hence the flight to India.
Now calling herself Lady Fanny Wentworth, she is returning to England with her aunt. Her uncle's death left her a wealthy woman and she takes a keen interest in overseeing her financial holdings. She has no intention of ever trusting a man again or of putting herself in a man's power.
While Fanny and her aunt are in Calais waiting for a ship, Fanny hears a child's cry of distress and saves the girl's reticule from a thief by dint of using her swordstick. It turns out that Miss Charlotte Sheldon is a passenger on the ship the Wentworths are taking to England. Miss Charlotte is immediately enamored of the brave Lady Fanny. Her father, Colonel Sheldon, is instead rather appalled at such unlady-like behavior.
It takes a great deal of skill to begin a romance with the couple completely at odds and to show the reader how dislike is transformed into love. I have to admit that I don't feel that Oliver pulled this off. This is not to say that I have trouble believing that this transformation could have taken place. Lady Fanny is bright, beautiful and unusual, fully worthy of a man's admiration. Colonel Sheldon is handsome, kind, respectable, and brave. He has his own scandalous secrets as well. But, despite the plausibility of these two falling in love, I just didn't feel that Oliver showed how it happened.
The first breech in the hostility occurs when the colonel steals a kiss on the stairs at the inn where they are staying, a somehow unconvincing event. Then, they are thrown together when he finds her on the cliffs near Brighton in a rainstorm and "rescues" her. A convenient illness intervenes to keep Fanny at his home where the two begin by sparring with each other and end up pretending to be engaged to protect Fanny from the importunities of Viscount Penryn who has managed to turn up to pursue the now wealthy woman he once helped betray. Why Fanny feels the need to undertake a sham betrothal to thwart Penryn's suit is never made quite clear.
Gerald's appearance helps uncover the truly sordid nature of the events a decade earlier, although I admit that I am still a bit fuzzy about the motives and behavior of all the actors.
At the colonel's estate, Fanny becomes fond of Derek's sister Margaret, who has been pining for her rotund neighbor, Sir Joshua for years. Why this is the case is never made clear, for Sir Joshua is surely meant to be a comic figure and one can't help but feel that Margaret could do much better.
As I reflect on my response to Scandalous Secrets, the word that comes to my mind is disappointment. Perhaps my expectations were too great, since I have often enjoyed Oliver's Regencies in the past. There was an inconsistency to the characters and to the story that lessened my enjoyment of the book. The premise was promising, but the performance was somewhat wanting.

Instagram that sells for a billion dollars, an entire tech news industry exists to filter out the noise from hundreds of imitators trying and failing to do the same thing. It's a sad story, actually. Well-connected companies can convince tech giants to salvage a losing operation. See: Google acq-hires half of Milk. The rest die trying.For every
As App Cubby founder David Barnard says, "the average tech entrepreneur doesn't have VCs working backroom deals to get a potential loss acquired by a profitable company." Instagram may have planned this exit from day one (after pivoting away from Burbn, anyway). That's a different tack from the plan-B approach Barnard's talking about, but the argument stands. Building free apps with no revenue in crowded categories is a luxury for developers playing with other people's money. In successful cases, users still stand to lose by having a beloved service sold out from under them, and most of the time, investors stand to lose much more than that.
@drance A friend once told me as soon as you have $1 in revenue someone can calculate a value. At $0 the value is unlimited. 1/0 = infinity.— Mike Rundle (@flyosity) April 10, 2012
Here's the latest example: There's a new app that provides "a special place for you to be the real you." It's for sharing with trusted people, instead of sharing everything with everyone. You can share different things with your family, your coworkers and your friends, "like you do in real life, in intimate Circles." No, not Google+. It's Everyme, another app joining the gold rush.
about a billion dollars to the likes of Facebook these days. The social network landscape is more or less cemented in place, but that's exactly the problem for the dominant players.Mobile-first social networking apps are selling for
Quick little startups like Instagram are beating Facebook and Google at their own game. It's starting billion-dollar bidding wars just so Facebook can keep one upstart out of Google's hands or vice versa. After all, despite throwing countless engineers and dollars at the problem, neither of them can build a compelling mobile client of its own.
So Facebook decided to buy the leader for more money than Instagram could ever have spent building itself. Gosh, do you think Everyme with it's "Circles," just like "real life," might get Google's attention?
Playing The Lottery
The common thread between all these trendy mobile-first social networks - Instagram, Path and Everyme - is that they're free and have no meaningful revenue stream. Instagram's investors made a pretty good bet that it would someday turn a profit by becoming a Facebook feature. But building an app is an awfully expensive lottery ticket.
This approach is anathema to app developers who just want to build their own businesses $0.69, $2.09 or $3.49 at a time. News like Instagram's $1 billion payday always meets with incredulity among developers. "Sure, people also win the lottery," said Barnard yesterday. "Build a profitable business, not a lottery ticket."
The Valley & the Real World
"Building a business to be profitable is a different path than building to be acquired," Barnard says. "Instagram may have never been profitable." Self-sustaining businesses don't have the luxury of burning cash to gather users and figure out a plan later.
"Building to be acquired might make sense in the [Silicon] Valley bubble, while playing with other people's money," Barnard says, "but I'd never risk my own blood, sweat and tears on something so risky."
"I think that trying to emulate Instagram will lead plenty of potentially good businesses astray," Barnard says. "In the real world, a profitable business is more attractive for acquisition, anyway."

We bought the Carlyle because of the sleek looks and the Toto reputation. We like it very much but there were a few surprises. We didn't have a clue how the Unifit works. Neither did our plumber! It took him 4 hours to install. We also had to move our water supply pipe over a few inches to accommodate the skirt which required tearing up the wall and soldering on a new valve. One annoying thing is that when you add water to the bowl and it begins to fill it starts draining down the back of the trap and makes a "tinkling" sound (which is what I try to avoid) while I am using it. Toto says it is because it is not level so the water drops off the back into the trap instead of sliding down it if it is level. I am sure they are right and will install the next one level.

We install the Carlyle for $179.00, the same as for any toilet. It takes us an extra 10 minutes, not three hours.

Welcome to Lost in Castles. We reconstruct history and produce stunning DVDs of castles. The image below shows our very first project Middleham Castle (once home to Richard III).
We reconstructed the (almost) impossible site of Sandal Castle in Wakefield, with great success. This was a landmark in the use of computer modelling, advancing the understanding of this ruinous site considerably.
Middleham and Sandal were about much more than stones - they were about restoring reputations too. The castles' connections to Richard III attracted attention and we were commissioned to visualise the tomb commissioned for King Richard III, producing our own promotional video, as featured on the Telegraph's website.
Our products are all available through this site. Sales provide funds for future productions, so we not only like the warm glow of support, but we actually need it in order to continue our work. We are self-funded, working with appropriate bodies to gain permissions for access, but taking time to produce DVDs and CDs that promote history that is both deeply researched and a pleasure.
Thanks for visiting today.

regarding Heath Miller; if you watch game film you'll often see where the Steelers have the audacity to have him try key blocks against defensive linemen. And, somehow, he does it; effectively ! Most of today's "tight ends" are just another wide receiver; Miller is the best true tight end in the game.
Second Read: Showing Heath Miller some love
"Second Read" rewinds the tape after each NFL weekend to determine why the games played out the way that they did … and what it all may mean for the rest of the season.
There are flashier tight ends around the league, players like Rob Gronkowski or Vernon Davis who change defensive game plans and steal headlines.
The Steelers probably wouldn't trade Heath Miller for any of them.
Miller is more from the "traditional tight end" cut than the Gronkowskis of the world, but he is invaluable in Pittsburgh's offense — and has been for several years. How much the Steelers rely on him was on display Sunday in their come-from-behind 24-17 win over Cincinnati.
"Heath gives us consistent effort on a week-in and week-out basis, and sometimes when we win, it gets highlighted as it should," Pittsburgh coach Mike Tomlin said. "But his performance is in line with what he's done all year."
The key highlights from that performance Sunday:
• With Pittsburgh down 14-6 late in the first half, Miller worked himself open in the end zone against very tight coverage, then made a tough catch over the middle for a touchdown.
• Miller then hauled in the ensuing two-point conversion on a corner fade route often reserved for a team's most athletic receiver.
• Finally, Miller had the key block on Chris Rainey's decisive 11-yard touchdown run, pulling to fill a gap up the middle and taking out a linebacker to spring Rainey into the secondary.
None of that was out of the ordinary — Miller finished with six catches for 53 yards, and he had several solid blocks, including a punishing one on a wide receiver screen. Miller may be one of the most underappreciated players in the league, but he showed again Sunday why he's still a sensational tight end.
Here's what else jumped out from the Week 7 action, upon a second spin through the game film:
1. Seahawks, 49ers gashed the middle on the ground … but only one took full advantage: It was sort of stunning to see on Thursday night, but both the Seahawks' Marshawn Lynch and 49ers' Frank Gore found gaping openings up the gut in a game supposedly pitting two of the NFL's better rush defenses.
Gore's success, in particular, left Seattle's linebackers with a lot on their plate — the starting trio of Bobby Wagner, K.J. Wright and Leroy Hill combined for 27 tackles. Their focus on helping with the run left some space between the hash marks, and at least half of Alex Smith's 14 completions came over the middle, including a decisive TD to a crossing Delanie Walker. Russell Wilson, meanwhile, hit on just one pass in the middle of the field and relegated himself to short passes into the flat all night.
2. Trent Richardson definitely looked hurt: Pat Shurmur insisted he pulled Richardson from the lineup Sunday because he was ineffective, not because he had reinjured himself. That assessment might be half true.
On Cleveland's first play Sunday, Richardson caught a pass from Brandon Weeden and quickly turned upfield for a 9-yard gain. He took a shot at the end of that play, however, and never looked the same after it. From that point on, Richardson's approach was a lot choppier and more hesitant than we've seen at any point this season. If Richardson was not feeling the pain of his rib injury, then he took a big step back in terms of his approach.
3. Minnesota's amazing defensive approach: Other people have pointed this out after circling back on the Vikings-Cardinals game, but it's worth repeating over and over again: The Vikings did not blitz the Cardinals once on Sunday. Not once!
That's how confident Minnesota was in its defensive line's ability to get home against a horrid Arizona front. The results? Seven sacks and 15 QB hurries. And, with Minnesota able to keep seven in coverage, John Skelton barely even looked downfield. He threw two passes deeper than 20 yards — one a clear throwaway kind of in Larry Fitzgerald's direction; the other, an interception on a free play created by an offsides.
4. About that Redskins' "full house" formation: The Redskins have implemented some different offensive looks to take full advantage of Robert Griffin III's skill package, and one that they used frequently Sunday employed three guys in the backfield wrapped around RGIII (seen here) — sort of like you'd see in Air Force's flexbone, for example. There's not much film out there to help NFL defenses prepare for that, and Washington even takes it one step further at times lining up a tight end almost directly in front of Griffin, with a running back to his side and another behind him (seen here).
Washington ran a play out of that set eight times in the first three quarters, with only an unforced Alfred Morris fumble resulting in a negative outcome. Every other occurrence saw the Redskins gain four yards or more, with gains of 13, 22 and 23. They also had a 35-yard Griffin-to-Leonard Hankerson TD pass wiped out by a penalty.
The Giants stiffened against the formation in the fourth, stuffing two runs and sacking Griffin off a play-action fake. Still, expect Washington to keep turning to the unique look in the future.
5. Saints' interior D-line turned the tide: After they gave up 21 points to Tampa Bay in the first half, it looked like the Saints were on their way to another awful defensive outing. But the script changed during the Buccaneers' first drive of the second half. Tampa Bay made it all the way to the Saints' 27 … and then the New Orleans' defensive line took over the game. It started inside, with Sedrick Ellis, Akiem Hicks and others stepping up — setting the tone for the goal-line stand that later defined this Saints victory.
6. A faster Raiders offense was a more effective Raiders offense: Oakland trailed 20-6 on Sunday when it opted to go to a no-huddle attack, giving QB Carson Palmer a little more control over the proceedings.
The bigger change, though, was that Palmer's play sped up — whereas he spent the first half avoiding pressure after deep drops, Palmer displayed a lot of three- and five-step, quick-release passes over the final two quarters, taking advantage of what was available. He clearly found a better rhythm late, which allowed him to even connect on a couple of throws while under heavy pressure.
7. A huge step back from Brandon Lloyd … and a great day from Antonio Cromartie: Despite finding the end zone just once this season, Brandon Lloyd had been pretty steady as a Tom Brady target through six games. That changed Sunday, as Antonio Cromartie almost completely took him out of the Patriots' passing attack.
Lloyd caught just one pass for six yards, while facing man-coverage from Cromartie for the majority of the game. Worse yet, Brady took several shots deep for Lloyd, and Lloyd failed to create any separation. Cromartie provided a very tough matchup for Lloyd, but without any vertical threat, Brady was forced to stay with a short passing attack throughout Sunday.
8. Great game for Bryan Bulaga, terrible one for Marshall Newhouse: Week 7 was a tale of two tackles for the Packers. Newhouse was abused throughout much of Green Bay's 30-20 win by St. Louis DE Robert Quinn; Quinn finished with a sack and several QB pressures.
Bulaga, on the other hand, absolutely stuffed Chris Long, a development that had to leave the Packers thrilled. Bulaga took advantage of Long's aggressiveness several times, simply guiding him upfield and out of the picture. But even more impressively, Bulaga stood the Rams' talented pass rusher up on multiple occasions, giving Rodgers room to slide away from Quinn's pressure.
9. Is Baltimore's pass defense a bigger concern than its run defense?: Especially with Ray Lewis out for the year (and struggling pre-injury) and Haloti Ngata hobbling, there's a lot of focus on Baltimore's inability to control the ground game. But even if the Ravens solve that problem, teams might just take to the air. Both Cary Williams (now the No. 1 cornerback with Lardarius Webb out) and Jimmy Smith (now No. 2) appeared overmatched Sunday. Neither came close to slowing down Andre Johnson, and Kevin Walter gave them almost as much trouble.
10. Kenny Britt early opened up everything else late for Tennessee: Britt seemed headed for a huge day Sunday, with three grabs for 26 yards on Tennessee's opening touchdown drive. Buffalo held him to just one catch for four yards the rest of the way, but the damage was done. By leaning on Britt heavily during that opening drive, the Titans forced the Bills to cheat more of their coverage in Britt's direction — a strategy that further strained a defense already unequipped to stop Chris Johnson. As a result, Matt Hasselbeck was able to complete passes to seven other players and orchestrate a late, game-winning drive.
11. Luke Kuechly thriving in the middle: The Panthers moved Kuechly to middle linebacker with Jon Beason hobbled in Week 5. Kuechly responded with 11 tackles and an interception. The rookie again manned the middle Sunday, as Beason sat again, and he delivered 15 tackles (8 solo, 7 assisted). Kuechly was everywhere Sunday, flying to the football horizontally, both against the run and Dallas' short passing attack. He's made it so the Panthers will have to consider keeping this setup even if Beason returns.
12. Where's Devin Hester's mojo?: There was a time when Hester was the most feared kick/punt returner in the league. Maybe we can chalk it up to his increasing age, but Hester seems very tentative in his punt return role right now. He had one return for five yards Monday vs. Detroit and fair caught another ball despite there being a bunch of open space in front of him.
The Lions stayed away from him for much of the night, kicking to the sidelines, but they easily contained him when the ball stayed in play.

Mount Pleasant, Mich. - Senior Krista Parks has ran her way into the cross country record books during her four year campaign at CMU.
"From day one she has cemented herself as one of the best ladies to come through this program," associate head coach Matt Kaczor said. "As a true freshman she was seventh in our conference."
Parks is the only student-athlete in CMU history to earn All-MAC honors four-straight seasons for women's cross country. She started this feat earning first team honors as a freshman followed by second team accolades during her sophomore campaign. Parks went on to earn All-MAC first team honors in back-to-back seasons as a junior and senior to close out her tenure as a Chippewa.
The Kentwood, Mich. native placed sixth all time on the top-25 5k performers this year with a 17:45.4 finish at the Notre Dame Invitational in October.
In 2010 Parks moved into second place all time in 6k performances at the MAC Championships finishing in 21:07.6.
During the 2013 season Parks led CMU as the top finisher six out of seven meets and has scored at every single indoor and outdoor track meet except for one during her respected career.
"She is one of those that leads by example. She has been one that has really ramped-up this program," Kaczor said. "She has just been a special lady that has shown the underclassmen what hard work will do for you."

Oh man the one that's like right by my thumb took freaking forever, and was just a horrible experience I somehow made it through.
I mounted it on foam board, but the paper was white, and I wanted a solid black border. So I had to sharpie the whole front side of the board black.
Then I realized (due to my typography class teaching me stuff) that the black would show through and dim the whiteness of the paper, so I had to mount the piece to a blank piece of white printer paper, cut that out without messing up, and then mount that nicely on the board and hope for the best.
Just bad. But I learned something... And that's the story for today's pic!
I like that hair color on you, Linz!
Miguel, it looks warm wherever you're at. That sounds really nice right now. OTL
Best thing came in the mail today. Well, second best thing when I order the larger sizes, but yeah.

One of the pleasures of owning a guitar or bass is that there is an almost endless selection of accessories that can not only enhance your playing experience, but also personalize your instrument to sound and look the way you want it to and become a true reflection of who you are. One of the easiest ways to personalize you guitar or bass is with a strap. Dunlop Straps & Strap Locks and Planet Waves Straps & Strap Locks are some of the more popular brands, but we have hundreds to choose from, including some Bass Specialty Straps which are designed to withstand the extra weight of a bass guitar. Another accessory that can really affect the way you play and sound is the humble pick. We have an enormous selection of picks, in all manner of colors, designs, thicknesses and materials. The great thing about picks is that they are cheap – a 10 pack starts at less than a dollar so you can buy a few and test them out until you find the one pick that's right for you. If you do, buy a few as you're bound to lose a couple. Another excellent way to create your custom sound is to replace the pickups on your instrument. Pickups from top manufacturers such as EMG Guitar Pickups, DiMarzio Guitar Pickups, and Seymour Duncan Guitar Pickups offer you the ability to completely customize your pickup configuration. They make it easy to add Humbuckers to a single coil guitar, or just more powerful or vintage-voiced pickups. At Musician's Friend we have thousands more guitar accessories - too many to mention here. As with everything we sell, all our Guitar Accessories are supported by our price & satisfaction guarantees and free standard shipping applies to all orders except heavy items.
Our product catalog varies by country due to manufacturer restrictions. If you change the Ship-To country, some or all of the items in your cart may not ship to the new destination.

A 1/2-Ton That Thinks Like A 3/4-Ton
Back in the late '70s you could buy a Ford F-150 with a coil-sprung Dana 44 front axle, a Ford 9-inch rearend, and a frame that could bear weight beyond the 1/2-ton designation. This vintage of the F-150 was often heralded for its built-tough mechanicals and lauded for the over-built engineering. For 2009, Ford continues the trend with its improved F-150 that again widens the gap with class-leading payload, towing, and improved fuel economy, while narrowing the gap between the F-150 and F-250 Super Duty.
For 2009 the more aerodynamic F-150 gets a new look that shares more of a family face with other Ford newcomers like the Flex and reintroduced Taurus. It also gets a bit larger, while losing some weight and gaining capability. The Super Crew is 6 inches longer (now with a flat load floor), thanks to new front doors that are shared across the F-150 lineup. Previously the four-door regular cab shared front doors with the SuperCrew, while the Super Cab had its own longer doors. But for 2009 all F-150s have the same front door and the regular cab reverts to a two-door model, giving up the rear mini doors. This lessens manufacturing complexity, at the same time improving fit and finish and lowering wind noise.
The roof of the '09 F-150 is also 15 mm taller to accommodate the side-curtain airbags and is full of other safety features from standard Advance Trac with Roll Stability Control, a full complement of airbags, and four-channel ABS to Ford's Personal Safety System and optional reverse camera system.
The foundation of the 2009 F-150 is a new fully boxed frame that is up to 15 pounds lighter than the outgoing frame, yet gains a 10 percent improvement in torsional stiffness. Composed of hydroformed and high-strength steel side rails with through-frame crossmembers, the new frame delivers a class-leading tow rating of 11,300 pounds. Rear leaf springs have also been lengthened 6 inches for better ride and lateral control.
Other towing advances include a standard Trailer Sway Control and an optional integrated Trailer Brake Controller system, which, when ordered in tandem work together to sense and manage dangerous trailer sway, using both the F-150's braking system, as well as the trailer's braking system. And because of its integration with the F-150's electronics and braking system, it doesn't have to infer driver intent from the tow vehicle braking system like an aftermarket unit does and makes for a less cluttered dash.
Ford has also upgraded the hauling portion of the 2009 truck with a slew of available equipment, including a tailgate step and collapsible bed extender, similar to the Super Duty, as well as a new box side step for helping to access the F-150's box over the tall bedsides and a new cargo management rail system that can hold up to 600 pounds per cleat and use a number of available accessories, such as lockable boxes, that can mount to the rails. Payload numbers haven't been announced as of this writing, but Ford assures us those numbers will also be best-in-class.
The engine lineup will be familiar to any Ford truck owner, with a number of V-8 choices. The 4.2L V-6 has now been replaced by a 2V 4.6L V-8 backed by a four-speed automatic, which will get the same fuel economy as the outgoing V-6-powered truck. The middle engine will be a new 3V 4.6L V-8 and the top engine will again be the 3V 5.4L V-8, backed by Ford's new six-speed automatic transmission. A deep 4.17 first gear in the six-speed has allowed Ford to offer taller rear axle ratios across the board to improve fuel economy, while still maintaining off-the-line grunt. Unofficially, the flex-fuel 5.4L is said to make 320 hp and 375 lb-ft of torque across the F-150 lineup, and average mileage is up 1.5 mpg over the old truck. Ford will be announcing the official horsepower numbers for the rest of the engine lineup later this year.

I work with iPhones all the time, but this chick I fixed an iPhone for asked me if I could fix his sons ipod which has been disabled by his little cousin after trying to guess the passcode. Or at least thats the story I got from her. Anyways, I said -yeah I can do it... assuming it was the same thing as an iphone on which I just do the power and home button hold thingy to get it into dfu and then just restore.
The weird thing is that it wont do it! I know both buttons work. But if its on and I hold them both for over a minute, it will never do a soft reset as any iphone would. Then if I slide to turn it of, hold the home button and plug it to the computer, it will turn on normally to the disabled screen. I dont understand. I know the home button work cause if I lock the screen and press it, it will light up again. So it works. Has anyone gone through this issue?
Also, I dont know whether its the first one or 2nd gen ipod. It does not have a camera tho.
Well, any help will be appreciated !!
Oh, yeah. The bad part is this kid's computer went bad. So cant go that way.

Its okay
By Love to shop
from Ontario
I bought this necklace in the dark turquoise, I like the colour and I like the stones in it. It was the first piece I have bought in this line so I was excited to receive it. When it came I liked the look but was disappointed in the clasp , it is flimsy and I would have liked there to have been an extender as well.
Bottom Line Yes, I would recommend this to a friend

Was really looking forward to this piece, but was disappointed with the flimsy small clasp and the bail which was too small for the beaded necklace. I tried to remove the necklace in order to wear it on it's own and to reverse the pendant, but to no avail. The necklace is stuck in the bail. For the price, I expect more attention to craftsmanship and detail. I've been collecting Sajen pieces for over 10 years. In the past 2 years I've returned more pieces than I keep. I'm glad I invested in Sajen years ago. When you compare the quality of those pieces to most of the pieces produced now, there is no comparison.
Bottom Line No, I would not recommend this to a friend

Hello I am in my first week and I think somewhat that I have been doing pretty good with my meal plan. Please tell me if I am doing anything wrong.
4 egg white
3 hrs later
Protein Shake
Tuna on Lettuce
3 hrs later
Chicken ***
Small Potato
* I have been using Red Hot (hot sauce) to give flavor to my evening meal. Is that a problem? Thanks for the help
You will STARVE if you don't add some more carbs to your lunch and breakfast! Your muscles NEED the boost from the carbs to have the necessary energy.
is it okay to mix in RED HOT hotsause to my dinner? i need something to spice up the plain taste. also if i add a piece of wheat toast for breakfast and maybe a 1/2 cup of brown rice for lunch will that do?
You need to make sure you have a protein and a carb with every meal. Yes adding wheat toast to breakfast and brown rice to lunch will work. What kind of protein shakes? If they are low carb you will need to add a carb to those also. A good choice is an apple, strawberries or a cup of fat free yogurt. Make sure 2 of the meals include a vegetable and you get a source of healthy fat once a day. It helped me to print off the food list and keep it with me for reference. Good luck with your challenge!
I just noticed that is only 5 meals. You need to have 6 meals.
Oh and it's fine to use a little hot sauce. I use taco sauce when I need a little spice. Just don't drowned your food in it and it will be fine.
I love Red Hot!!!! I chop up my portion of a chicken *** and a stalk of celery and mix it with a portion of brown rice and some red hot. Sooooo good and you get both your carbs and your protein with a flavor kick!!! My go to carbs choices recently have been brown rice (I cook it with chicken broth to give it more flavor), brown rice pasta, Thomas' lite Whole grain English muffins and Orowheat Thin Buns.
The only thing that can stop me. . . . . . . . . . is ME!!!! JEN

Text Messaging Helps to Manage DiabetesPosted: Monday, March 12, 2012
New published research assessed the feasibility of engaging adults with diabetes in self-management behaviors between clinic visits by using cell phone text messaging to provide blood sugar measurement prompts and appointment reminders.
Henry H. Fischer, MD, and colleagues from the Denver Health and Hospital Authority, the University of Colorado Denver School of Medicine and the Colorado School of Public Health in Aurora conducted the quasi-experimental pilot among adult diabetic patients with cell phones who receive regular care at a federally-qualified community health center in Denver, which serves a population that is predominantly either uninsured (41 percent) or on Medicaid or Medicare (56 percent).
Patients received text message prompts over a three-month period. Blood sugar readings were requested three times per week and reminders were sent seven, three, and one day(s) before each scheduled appointment. Acknowledgments were returned for all patient-sent messages. Focus groups were conducted in English and Spanish with selected patients.
Seventy-nine percent of the cohort responded to more than half of their prompts. The appointment analysis was underpowered to detect significant changes in attendance. Participants reported increased social support, feelings that the program "made them accountable" and increased awareness of health information. Sixty-six percent of patients provided glucose readings when prompted during the study, compared with 12 percent at two preceding clinic visits.
The authors concluded that for certain patients, cell phone-based text messaging may enhance chronic disease management support and patient-provider communications beyond the clinic setting.
