Product Review: 2013 Nike Lunar Control Golf Shoes
I had the privilege of trying the new 2013 Nike Lunar Control Golf Shoes recently, and let's just say they have a winner. I have been playing with the Nike Heritage golf shoes this past season, and if you're looking for an upgrade then you need to checkout the Lunar Control Golf Shoes.
Look 10/10
The look of the new Lunar Control's are awesome with a great set of 6 colorways to choose from. I tested the Black/Volt colorway since I'm a huge fan of black golf shoes and these ones will definitely stand out with the Volt Flywire. I also really like the look of the White/Reflective Silver-Photo Blue-Anthracite colorway. I like how they kept the classic saddle type look but comfort is where it's king. I give the overall look a 10/10 with 6 great colorways to choose from that matches your taste.
Comfort 8/10
I can't describe how comfortable the new Lunar Control's are compared to other golf shoes I have worn. They took the look of the saddle shoe and mixed it with the feeling of a comfortable running shoe and have a real winner. Comfort should be the number one benefit when looking for a golf shoe since you will be putting a ton of miles in on the golf course. I know from experience in playing college golf that walking 36 holes the first day destroys your feet. I really wish I had these a long time ago since the round would have been way better on the feet. The Lunarlon cushioning is a great feature in not only making the shoes lighter but helps take stress off of pressure points on your foot. They aren't as light as the Oakley Cipher but are making huge strides in cutting out the weight of the shoe. So if you are looking to get rid of your Foot Joys or Adidas and try something new, then I highly suggest giving these golf shoes a shot! I give the overall comfort rating of 8/10.
Grip 8/10
The Nike Lunar Control will give all the grip you need in the world with its Scorpion Stinger Spikes and Tri-LOK system. Even on rainy days will help you get a grip and prevent slipping in harsh conditions. Replacements spikes can be found at almost every golf shop along with great deals online. Golf Smith offers Scorpion Stinger Spikes with Tri-LOK for $10.99. I give the overall Grip rating of 8/10.
Overall Grade 26/30
If you are looking for a new golf shoe and feel like giving the Nike Lunar Control shoes a shot I would highly recommend trying the 2013 version out at local golf stores and online at Nike. I would suggest if you want to go a step up from the Lunar Controls to checkout the Tiger Woods edition shoes. I will be playing these all 2013 and probably on into the future since they really are a great shoe and a great tool in enhancing your golf game.

Nike Golf Athletes to Debut New Nike Lunar Control Footwear
Below is the Official Press Release From Nike:
BEAVERTON, Ore. (November 8, 2012)– Nike Golf Athletes will debut the latest Lunar Control footwear at the Children's Miracle Network in Orlando and in Dubai for the European Tour's DP World Tour Championship.
The new Nike Lunar Control footwear, available January 1, 2013, imparts innovation in every detail, delivering performance that exceeds athletes' expectations.
Distinguishing from the original Nike Lunar Control golf shoe, the new Lunar Control footwear features a full-length Lunarlon cushioning system, providing lightweight comfort, optimal ground-feel, and all-day support throughout the entire shoe.
The Lunarlon cushioning system is a proprietary technology from Nike that offers comfort and stability where athletes need it most. The Lunarlon Foam midsole is lightweight, durable and highly responsive, resulting in a unique combination of cushioning and support.
Another differentiating detail from the original Lunar Control is increased Nike Flywire technology, wrapping from the midfoot to heel to provide targeted support and lightweight structure.
A Nike Power Platform stabilizes the foot to offer better balance, smoother weight transfer and more power through impact. Working in conjunction with the Power Platform is the patent pending Power Transfer Zone technology which allows for constant contact and a smooth transfer of power at impact.
This construction of the saddle panel combined with a carved out TPU, works with the foot to allow natural range of motion and improved flexibility. This technology not only elevates performance, but it has also reduced the weight of the original Nike Lunar Control from 14.6oz to 13.4oz (1.2oz per shoe).
"We take inspiration from our athletes and work to amplify performance in every aspect of their game," said Nike Golf's Footwear Product Director, Lee Walker. "When you're on your feet all day every day, practicing and competing, every ounce makes a difference."
The Nike Lunar Control will be available in 6 colorways with wide options.
Key Features:
• Waterproof premium leather upper
• Flywire midfoot saddle
• Full length Lunarlon cushioning
• Nike Power Platform
• 2-year Waterproof Warranty

Hello lovelies. I haven't run away, life has just been crazy, and stressful, and mostly crazy. Just to fill you in …… in addition to all the regular every day, we are wedding planning (think DIY wedding), and buying a home. If all goes well we will be into our new house by June, but I'm not counting any chickens. Oh yeah it has a chicken coop too! Hah.
Anyhow, I told you before that I started doing daily yoga to relieve migraines at the start of February. Well, it turns out that I love it, I mean, I like it a lot. It's sort of like the grown up, socially acceptable form of gymnastics, but it's not, all at the same time. Weird I know. I was previously very close minded about yoga, and thought it was lame. Yup. I thought it was just stretching, and blah blah …. sitting still is not my thing. Naturally I thought that yoga was not my thing. Turns out I was wrong. My previous opinions of yoga were also wrong.
I liked it so much that I found an awesome studio locally and have been taking classes when I can. With my new found interest in yoga I sought out inspiration via Instagram. There are so many "insta-yogi's," as I like to call them, it has been easy to find inspiration. Instagram is an interesting place to connect with like minded people. The yoga family on there is mostly supportive, and you can find lots of fun "challenges."
In April I decided to participate in one of these challenges. I figured what better way to learn more about yoga, and see more of what it has to offer then by doing? This is also why I did not post any insta-Friday's during the month. When I know I "have" to take a specific photo each day I found myself taking fewer spontaneous ones.
Here are all the photo's from the challenge.
There were ton's of new-to-me poses, and some familiar things.
Some things that felt great, and others that seem as though they will never feel comfortable.
There were awkward poses that probably shouldn't be done in public, and poses kiddos wanted to try.
There were fails (read face-plants) , and successes.
There were moments of struggle, and moments of cheesy achievement.
Yes there are only 20 photos there. The other 10 days I posted videos. While I love you all I will not be posting them here, if you would like to view them feel free to check out my instagram GT4936.
All in all it wasn't so bad. I am not sure if I am stronger physically from it, but I honestly believe I am stronger mentally from it. I told myself that I was going to do another challenge for May, but honestly I think life is enough of a challenge right now.
I feel that I should also mention that I have not had any migraines since starting yoga. I can not say with 100% certainty that it is the main factor causing that, but I can say that I believe it is. Before I started doing yoga I had a minimum of one migraine a month. The migraine I had in January lasted three days. That is the longest I have ever had a migraine. If you are curious with how or what I started with follow to Mind Body Green. I spent about 15-20 minutes each day at first, now I do what feels good.
Have you ever done yoga? What is your favorite pose, and why?

Jansy was given the opportunity to work with a new brand of fine jewelry called Noémie. Noémie, which just launched in February, offers customers a unique approach to traditional jewelry and provides a direct-to-consumer mentality – customers purchase the jewelry directly from Noemie's website.
The two jewelry lines, the "classic" collection and the "elephant" collection, can be viewed online or viewed by appointment at Noémie's New York showroom, The Loft. Founder Yuvi Alpert incorporates a vertically-integrated business model, which allows him and his team to keep prices low by having complete control of the entire process. On the website, customers are able to see the retail price they would be paying if they were to purchase the same piece at a high end department store.
Fine Packaging For Fine Jewelry
In addition to their untraditional approach, Noémie also wanted one-of-a-kind packaging to go with each piece of jewelry. Customers who purchase a piece of jewelry from Noémie will receive it in a large blue box, tied with blue satin ribbon.
Jansy's over-sized packaging for Noémie was inspired by Agatha's cake boxes in the 2014 film The Grand Budapest Hotel. The box is complete with Noémie's elephant logo, which represents the brand's goal to revive the notion of a trusted family jeweler. To view the jewelry collections in their entirety, visit www.hellonoemie.com.
Providing Quality Packaging Since 2004
Noemie's packaging is an example of how product packaging should never lose sight of the business's overall vision, personality and brand. Jansy's unwavering dedication to providing state-of-the-art designs and cutting-edge engineering sets them apart from design boutiques and manufacturing firms. Customers who trust their business's vision with Jansy can rest assure that their packaging will exceed their original expectations.
Jansy proudly partners with a number of brands including Nike, Kate Spade and bareMinerals. To learn how Jansy can benefit your business, call (855) 782-0639 today.

Home Economics: answering your property questions
Q: My mother died some years ago and my father has a progressive illness which makes it difficult to care for him at home. With his agreement, he is going to a nearby nursing home. The only asset he has is his house, which we understand will be charged at 7.5pc per annum for three years under Fair Deal. Is there any possibility of him transferring the house to me now to avoid this charge? It would be coming to me in any event as I am his only son and I don't want to have to sell it.
A. The workings of Fair Deal mean that everyone who has income or assets contributes according to means. Deliberate transferring of assets to avoid the contribution isn't allowed.
I asked the HSE for a formal response and they said: "In the case described, should the family home be transferred from father to son, in line with the Nursing Homes Support Scheme Act 2009, the value of the property will be included in the financial assessment for the first three years of nursing home care.
"A person's contribution is based on 80pc of his/her assessable income and 7.5pc of the value of any assets owned by the applicant, including assets that he/she transferred at any time in the period of five years prior, or at any time on or subsequent to the date on which the first application for State support is made.
"The first €36,000 of the value of an applicant's cash and non-cash assets are disregarded as part of the financial assessment and the value of a person's principal private residence is only included in the financial assessment for the first three years that the person receives care services in a nursing home."
Q. I originally took out my mortgage with National Irish Bank. I received letters over years from Danske Bank after the takeover but now I seem to be getting them from an outfit called Pepper. Is this another bank and what happened to Danske? I'm trying to move house but they say I can't take the tracker mortgage I already have with me.
A. Danske left Ireland as a retail bank in 2014 and appointed Pepper Ireland to manage its day-to-day administrative services here, including its loan book as it naturally winds down - it didn't take over ownership of the bank but Danske no longer has a retail banking licence in Ireland and can't lend or conduct new business here any more although it has a corporate presence. There were no changes to the existing terms and conditions of anybody's mortgage.
Pepper appointed brokers to manage any new business arising from it, and I asked one of them, Garry Manning, from Omac Mortgages and Finance about your situation with regard to upgrading your mortgage.
"As Danske Bank no longer holds a banking licence in Ireland, you can't take the tracker mortgage with you to your new home. Pepper does have its own home loan company, but treats all applications as new business and does not offer tracker portability. You should also note that they only lend for properties in certain geographical areas, mainly around the provincial capitals.
"My advice to you is that you go to your nearest AEMA Mortgage Broker who will be able to advise you on all lenders, including Pepper home loans, and work out the best deal for you. Obviously your existing relationship with Danske will form part of this discussion."
The Ryan Review
The Living City initiative is an excellent plan to get city centre properties revitalised and encourage use of all space available for housing.
It gives tax breaks to landlords to refurbish vacant 'above the shop' units. The equally positive Repair and Lease grant scheme will do similar and has €2m set aside for this purpose.
The Census threw up some 200,000 vacant properties which would go a long way to helping the housing crisis if they can be identified and incentivised back into use.
However, one big anomaly remains in doing so. It is to do with properties which are vacant due to their owner having moved into a nursing home under the Fair Deal scheme. The scheme swipes 7.5pc off assets each year as the patient's contribution toward care.
While the family home asset is 'capped' after three years, so that the maximum taken won't exceed 22.5pc, it does however result in an unintended consequence, which is the house itself cannot be sold after this period (or indeed, at all), because to do so would convert the asset to cash, and the 7.5pc appropriation thereof is for an unlimited time. Alternatively, it would force the repayment of the State loan, if applicable.
Neither, in most cases, can the property be rented out. To do so would result in a rental income to the owner and the Fair Deal takes 80pc of the gross value of this toward care, resulting, in some cases, with the contribution being higher than the income. So these homes remain empty as long as their owner continues in care.
There are 24,000 people in nursing homes via Fair Deal, due to increase by 9,000 by 2018. Not all leave vacant homes behind, but for those that do, boarding them up is the only viable financial solution. What a great pity.

Imported From Detroit: Chrysler Drives "MOTOWN: THE MUSICAL" To BroadwaySeptember 28th, 2012 by Christen
As a "motor city gal living in the city of dreams," I was beyond thrilled to hear that the Motown story would be descending upon New York City in the form of a musical and one of Motown's biggest supporters the Chrysler brand has been announced as the driving force behind the arrival to Broadway.
"The Chrysler brand is honored to be part of this epic event that details the history of Motown, celebrates the music of its time and shares with the world how the city of Detroit serves as a source of inspiration. It's extraordinary events such as these that helped to define the values of the Chrysler brand." – Olivier Francois, Chief Marketing Officer, Chrysler Group LLC.
Thursday night, as a guest of the Chrysler brand – I had the pleasure of enjoying a luxury evening filled with ground travel in the 2013 Chrysler 300, attending a very special preview of MOTOWN: THE MUSICAL as well as the celebrity-filled after party event and Liberty Theater. The preview event, held at the Nederlander Theater hosted MOTOWN: THE MUSICAL producer Kevin McCollum, director Charles Randolph-Wright, Smokey Robinson and Mr. Berry Gordy himself gracing the Nederlander stage to share their enthusiastic joy regarding the show and anticipation of it's release next year. The cast performed select numbers from the musical which included original Motown hits like "Dancing In The Streets", "Ball Of Confusion" and "You're All I Need". This intimate event was host to many of the Motown music family & friends including Aretha Franklin, Jesse Jackson, Star Jones, Gayle King, Al Sharpton and more.
MOTOWN: THE MUSICAL opens on Broadway at The Lunt-Fontanne Theatre (205 West 46 Street) on April 14, 2013 following preview performances beginning March 11, 2013. Directed by Charles Randolph-Wright, MOTOWN: THE MUSICAL is the real story of the one-of-a-kind sound that hit the airwaves in 1959 and changed America forever.

Get Product key from other OS
Ok, since I explained it bad in the other topic, I'll explain it here.
I wiped my Windows 7 since I couldn't boot into it.
Now I am on a new copy freshly installed, and need my old key to activate it.
So how can I go about getting the key from my old installation? I have every file saved (from a complete disk backup). Is it stored in a file, or registry, or what?

So how can I go about getting the key from my old installation? I have every file saved (from a complete disk backup). Is it stored in a file, or registry, or what?
Where is the COA (certificate of authenticity) which is supposed to be delivered with every copy of WIndows, or Windows PC?
If you have a copy of your old Windows Registry, the key is present there. Unfortunately, it's encrypted. All of the utilities I've ever used to read the key would only read it from the registry of the active copy of Windows. Maybe someone else can point you to a utility that can find and decrypt it.
I've never used this utility, but it looks like it should work:
ProduKey - Recover lost product key (CD-Key) of Windows/MS-Office/SQL Server
You'd have to extract the Registry from the backup. Maybe it'd be simplest to extract the whole Windows directory.
Good luck.

Lindsay Lohan, now soaked in tarnished glamor like the Amanda Bynes' and the Britney Spears' of Tinseltown, started her career on a high note...and proceeded to stay high. Now, the redhead's tabloid trials are more entertaining than most of her movies - which says as much about us as it does about her. She's barely been able to keep a steady job since it went pair-shaped - not to mention the car crash, the ankle monitor, the rehab, the assault, the numerous arrests, and the prison sentence. Lohan isn't just a trainwreck, she's a train that is constantly wrecking. She's turned into our doped up little sister whom we keep tabs on and hold out hope for.
Lohan's situation has gone from sad to funny and back again more times than I can remember. In her difficult moments, it seemed like no one was reaching out to her and offering her a path to reclaiming what she once had. What she once had, of course, was promise... Ten years ago, the young thesp, with movies behind her like Mean Girls, Freaky Friday and The Parent Trap, seemed set for greatness with an on-screen poise far beyond her years. But in fact, she wasn't ready to deal with the pressures of being so prominent, and now her public meltdown is in danger of lasting longer than her career.
So, can Lindsay heal and finally get her career back on track?
Well, viewers got their first look at Lindsay Lohan's new docuseries, Lindsay, on Sunday night. Her show kicks off with LiLo just eleven days out of rehab, saying that she has, at long last, found "inner peace" and that, now:
All the distractions and the chaos that goes on…just in daily life in general, don't really affect me anymore.
The show also intersperses a timeline of Lohan's career and her many various offences. But, for her part, the 27-year-old actress says that she's ready to start a "new chapter" in her life, and that:
I know that this is my last shot at doing what I love to do. It does take getting to a really scary place and think you can do everything, but no you can't. And there is nothing left in having a drink for me. What's left in that feeling? Nothing. There is no party I haven't gone to, no person I haven't hung out with. There's no situation that I haven't been exposed to. There's nothing left in that for me to experience that I haven't already experienced.
Some of it was fun, some of it was really not, but I've had that. So maybe trying another way for me, which is living with integrity and living in control of my own self -- that's the life I want now.
Whether or not post-recovery LiLo will be able to reignite her career is largely dependent on whether the actress has enough strength and sticking power to stay out of trouble and out of rehab.
On my watch, Lohan's now on her fifth release from rehab, and she's made celebrating her release with a bottle of bubbly a bit of a regrettable ritual in the past. It's early days, but perhaps Lindsay has really started afresh this time and will be the actually-very-talented leading lady everyone always says she is - just after they've ripped her to shreds for being a mess.
What do you guys think? Is LiLo back on track?

Summit Looks at Future of Potato Industry
More than 200 people traveled to Colorado Springs, Colo., in December to attend the first-ever Potato Industry Outlook Summit. Held in conjunction with National Potato Council's Seed Seminar, the Outlook Summit looked at the future of the potato industry in the United States and brought together leaders from all aspects of the nation's potato industry.
Growers asked us to bring a group of experts together to analyze the current industry structure as well as supply and demand conditions facing the nation's growers and shippers," said John Keeling, executive director of the National Potato Council (NPC). "The unanticipated outcome was how all the presentations mirrored what the U.S. Potato Board (USPB) has been saying for the past five years that the long-term issue remains increasing demand and that we, as an industry, must work together to meet the needs of consumers."
Supply and Demand
The daylong summit kicked off with a presentation on the supply outlook by Bruce Huffaker from North American Potato Market News.
Huffaker estimated the 2004 U.S. potato crop would be at 450.2 million cwt. down 7.6 million cwt. from 2003. With these numbers, the 2004 crop would be the second smallest crop since 1997.
"If potato production across North America is this low, why aren't market prices much higher than they are today?" Huffaker asked.
The challenge, he said is in finding new demand for potatoes and developing new markets.
"Unless we find some way of developing new demand for potatoes, we are going to be struggling as an industry with the need to reduce acreage on a continual basis year to year," he said.
The same sentiment was echoed by the rest of the day's speakers. Bruce Axman, president and CEO of Perishables Group, spoke to the fresh-market outlook. According to Axman's presentation, more than 30,000 new items are introduced each year a "new product explosion." Of those, 75 percent fail in the first year. But, 60 percent of the growth comes from new items.
"The retail environment is changing," Axman said. "There's great opportunities for potatoes to get on that bandwagon and increase value for the end consumer.
"We must keep the end consumer in mind."
With that comes knowing who the customers are. Sixty-five percent of households are one- to two-person households, which needs to be considered when developing packaging and product offerings, Axman said.
Among the suggestions Axman made were to update packaging to make it more appealing to consumers; innovate product offerings; and to increase value-added availability.
Patrick Davis, with McCain Foods USA, discussed the nation's frozen potato outlook.
"It's not about capacity, it will be about capability," Davis said of the frozen industry.
Dennis Conley, from Basic American Foods, spoke about the dehy outlook.
Ten percent of the U.S. potato crop is used for dehy. And though Conley said there is great potential for using dehy potato products as a building block for many products, there is not an equal balance between supply and demand.
"Anytime we get close to meeting demand, we build more capacity and that is not good," he said.
Among the issues, which Conley said are not unique to the dehy industry, are energy, varietal changes, competition for low-cost product, wastewater requirements, competition with other starches and a limited ability to pass on the increasing costs to the consumer.
John Toaspern, with USPB, spoke of the board's efforts to improve the export outlook for potato products.
"There's a lot of people out there who you could be selling to who are consuming more potatoes," he said.
In addition to these speakers, Bob Shearer of Shearer's Foods discussed the chip outlook.
Eating Trends
Mac Johnson, with USPB, spoke on national eating and sales trends. There has been a decline in pounds of potatoes sold. And, large bags of potatoes are selling more at lower prices than the smaller bags, which bring in more money.
For example, Johnson said, when potatoes are being sold in 10-pound bags for buy one get one free, the consumer is being taken out of the market for two to four weeks because they don't need any potatoes.
"We are not losing consumers, we are losing frequency," he said.
But, he said, there is hope on the horizon as more growers, packers and shippers are getting innovative with their offerings.
"I think there is reason for optimism, but I'd be cautious," he said.
European potato growers, too, are finding reason for cautious optimism as they find ways to specialize the potato market.
UK Innovation
John Chinn, a UK potato producer, has a 3,000-acre farm with 1,000 acres dedicated to potatoes.
"I can't make money growing commodity potatoes," Chinn said. "We're focusing on growing what the customer wants, and that is decreasing yields."
Chinn has seen a 5 percent increase each year with his baby new potatoes. He also offers his potatoes in a microwave steamer pack that is freestanding, has a valve and cooks in two minutes in the microwave. The pack has loose water in it that, when microwaved, steams the potatoes.
Though these specialized potato products are allowing some potato growers in the United Kingdom to thrive, others are not able to stay in business.
U.S. Case Studies
To keep the same fate from happening to U.S. growers, the industry is working to find out what consumers want. Tim O'Connor spoke on U.S. case studies USPB currently is working on.
USPB's strategies are increasing innovation, developing new markets and focusing on the nutrition campaign. Innovation spans all sectors of the potato industry from developing new varieties, improving packaging and adding value.
"The future of the industry is the one we create," O'Connor said. "How much money do we have to lose before we find out we have to do things like the rest of the produce industry?"
O'Connor said retailers are not helping the potato industry's fate. Though the industry tries to improve product offerings, retailers still display and sell potatoes the same way.
"They're (retailers) putting potatoes in a traditional-meal rut," he said. "They love 'em, but they love 'em in the same old ways."
But those growers, shippers and processors who are ready and willing to take the lead may be able to turn the industry around.
"The winners are those who are going to step up and play the game," O'Connor said."

Assassin's Creed Compared to The Matrix
A video game movie thinking about other films and different ways to approach the story? You'd think they were taking the whole thing seriously. Assassin's Creed movie producer and double Assassin Michael Fassbender opened up to Empire about his take on the franchise's genetic memory storyline.
Fassbender on Assassin's Creed
We got our first glimpse of the Assassin's Creed movie last week with new official stills showing Michael Fassbender in his hooded garb as member of the Brotherhood Aguilar and as the distinctly less hooded Callum Lynch. The movie finished shooting at the weekend and in an interview with the Wall Street Journal, Fassbender confirmed that he's feeling confident.

AoA MP4 Converter 3.0
Old versionsSee all
AoA MP4 Converter by AoAMedia is a useful tool for those who want to enjoy videos "on the go" by reproducing them in portable devices.
It converts video from some of the most popular formats, like for instance AVI (DivX, XviD...), MOV/QT (QuickTime), MPEG (MPEG-1, MPEG-2), MPG, FLV (Flash Video, Youtube, Google Video), WMV/ASF, DAT, to MP4 and 3GP allowing you to reproduce them in devices like an iPod, Play Station Portable, mobile phone, or MP4 player.
Its features include: Convert entire video or select clip (through a time slide bar), a small preview, batch conversion, drag and drop interface, the possibility to adjust video/audio quality, bit rate, video size, volume.
Its interface is quite intuitive and includes all the basic controls: add files (browsing or by dragging and dropping them in), select output folder, select output format and start conversion.
This is a nice looking program that I found to be really useful, if you would like to test it, you can get a trial version (that will only convert 50% of the video) at the developer's site.

fox news takes the "support the troops" offense, while debasing baptists. because jesus (sorry, heavenly guy), these things are only reported by fox news. the "fair and balanced"/extremist right wing "news" station. rupurt murdoch controls every story that even has a chance of being aired, and the only ones that are somewhat bi-partisian controversial are those dealing with some person or group that hates the troops. and they always seem to end up on a show such as hannity and colmes, to be berated and humiliated. not because they think they will get a point across, but because they obviously have some other agenda. who would allow themselves to be interviewed by someone who will call them out for the obvious and have absolutely no agreements with them? paid correspondants. did you ever see the hannity and colmes (or maybe it was o'reilly. or tucker. or possibly ann coulter as a guest? [btw: why the hell hasn't fox gave her a show yet? i guess even they have their limits] fuck it though, they're all the same) "interview" with the guy whose website's message was simply "fuck the troops?" this guy had no rhyme, no reason, no argument, nothing. he apparently just hated the troops (like clinton, eh? *sad, sad smile. mmm...surplus*). but yet, he was knowledgable enough to go forth with and accept an interview with fox news. but apparently no other major news outlet knew of this guy. it must be because fox news doesn't have an extremist right-wing bias. it's all about "fair and balanced." shit, apparently the minority (don't worry, GOP. i'm not talking about mexicans) are the only ones watching either CNN, MSNBC, or ESPN. so that pretty much is where fox is trying to pull the educated population from. just say "troops" or "9/11," and the empathetic members of the population (empathy for others? isn't that like... SOCIALISM?? ha ha, joking. that's just for pinkos and the chinese) shed a tear. regardless the topic, basis, or even without such simple things as facts and sources; the mention of those key words draws an emotional reaction. and anyone with a political agenda knows how to play off that. back to this protest, this woman. for one, what was the whole "god hates fags" thing about? is that why soldiers are dying? because of gay people? fuck! better put them fags on an island then! i know Falwell's happy they can't adopt kids there. it would be like the garden of eden. except that apple is only gonna be eaten by adams. still, i just love how this woman maintains total composure; all while being insulted by hannity (and even colmes, for gods sake. i'd fucking kill myself for taking shit from him). for someone who is such an extremist, she sure is a pussy. but the baptist part. hannity does say about 1/2 to 3/4 through the interview that this church is a "seperate" denomination of the baptist church. but still, who are the MAJORITY of baptists? them good 'ole black people. no matter what, you say "hate troops" and "baptist" together on fox news, every hardcore right-winger and trailer-trash shithead is just getting an excuse for their hatred and ignorant racism. fuck, fox news already made hurricane katrina black america's fault (i mean, even the mayor was black. and black people looted. white people scavenged. and that one guy stole a bunch of heiniken. that was the moment americans knew they had to take a stand. a stand against an area sitting on death's bed, on the failure of the govenment that was supposed to help them. but those fucking niggers stole doritos from a wal-mart. how could they be so ungrateful after we let them live in the superdome?). back to the somewhat unargumentitive part. fox news wants to push GOP agendas, yet has to appeal to moderates and democrats due to the large disapproval in bush and his administration/war/budget/lies/monetary interests/general idiocy. so, why not take some "random" occurance in iowa (gee..funny how they brought up iowa's democratic primary election in the story. considering iowa is considered the home plate for the national democratic primary decision, that sure is one strange little interjection...). i would put money on this being just another publicity stunt, paid for by our good friend murdoch. don't believe me? how the hell could all these "fuck the troops," "fuck 9/11," or, "fuck anything that would piss off the general population" get interviews exclusively with them (fox news, for those with the mtv attention span)? the one network who's audience will automatically hate whatever they tell them to? whose hosts will insult and berate you? a place where you couldn't get your "agenda" or "message" across in any way possible? i mean, shit. what "we hate what other idiots hate, but for some unknown reason we hate american troops, too" group thinks fox news viewers are going to actually agree with them? yes, i'm sure they'd see the "God Hates Fags" sign, mutter "damn right," and take a sip of budweiser. but if that sign said "Troops Are Fags" though, different story. these people would be burning down every church that wasn't catholic (just kidding! the kkk hates catholics). then they go to iowa, and wave a posterboard on a freeway that says "God Hates Fags." which isn't anything new, except this time they said "troops" and were next to a military funeral. that is the clincher on the argument. I mean, who couldn't agree with a woman that hates american troops and 9/11? and apparently thinks that those people deserved everything they got? the fag thing though...hmmm.... doesn't really get brought up in the interview. just in videotaped signs, and about maybe 8 seconds of voice airtime. wow. they sure showed those signs a lot for it being such an insignificant topic. and for someone being interviewed, that woman didn't seem to care much about the "fag" aspect either. she just liked talking about how troops and the people that died because of 9/11 deserved it. no explanation why. they just apparently did. it wasn't because of gays, the theory of evolution, or the da vinci code. but do you want to know the truth of the matter? without all of those american deaths, how could fox afford to pay the actors protesting fictional causes in iowa?
hey, that's capitalism bud. gotta make money somehow.
(ps: if you can find this story on any other major news network (i.e. CNN, MSNBC, ABC, NBC, CBS, PBS, or even The Onion; send me the link. If not, go google "steven colbert white house correspondents dinner." it's the best laugh/kick in the nuts that was so desperately needed speech I have ever seen. i guess that's why Time just named him one of the Top 5 most influental people in the country. But hey, it's the fucking liberal media. We all know about their communist bias.)

FRANKFURT - Stratasys Inc. says Aston Martin Racing (AMR) was able to meet an aggressive development schedule for its AMR-One race car by using 3D printing.
The company's Dimension® 3D Printer was used to mock up the chassis, driver controls and engine of the race-car. The 3D printer produced prototypes for concept and testing of Aston Martin's new AMR-One, (LMP1 class). Developed in under six months, the car will be driven by the Aston Martin Racing works team drivers in the 2011 Intercontinental Le Mans Cup (ILMC).
AMR selected the Dimension machine for its rapid prototyping capabilities after seeing the speed and quality of the parts produced for the Prodrive run rally team in a previous project. Having the machine on site helped the race team to design, test and build a complete car to meet the tight deadline for entry into this year's ILMC.
Built from the ground up, AMR-One features a new bespoke carbon fibre chassis, an open cockpit and a significantly down-sized engine, all of which required testing during the building process. The Dimension machine was used primarily for designing and testing the engine parts as well as mocking up the chassis and driver controls. This ensured ultimate efficiency and that the new design met the 2011 regulations from the Le Mans governing body – the ACO. The car was developed from start to finish between autumn 2010 and the end of February 2011.
Aston Martin Racing is also exploring the idea of using the 3D printer to make finished parts to bolt onto the car. One item being considered is the front wing splitters used for aerodynamic flow.
"When we received final sign-off to build the car for this year's ILMC, using rapid prototyping was a no-brainer for us, as we had a tight deadline to meet. Most of the engine was prototyped on the Dimension machine, which also proved very useful for the early stages of determining the driver fit for the car," says George Howard-Chappell, Technical Director at Aston Martin Racing. "Without the 3D printer, we would not be testing the car today. Following the success with the AMR-One, we hope to utilise the capabilities of another Stratasys machine to help build and deliver end-use parts for future cars."
"The AMR-One has achieved a balance of aesthetics and aerodynamics, and FDM technology has helped make this possible," says Tim Heller, European MD for Stratasys. "We wish the Aston Martin Racing team the best of luck with the upcoming season."
The FDM 3D Printing process is patented by Stratasys, Inc.

My Swap Items from Rain
I got my swap package a few days ago and have just now gotten around to posting. It was a nice package full of fun little things for me to find.
I also got this bag that was so great that it got its own picture. The bag totally inspired me to go out and buy a sewing machine so I could add a lining. My swap partner Rain has converted me to a new craft with out even realizing it (How great is that).

Police killed one suspect in the Boston Marathon bombing during a shootout and were engaged in a house-to-house search for a second man on Friday in the Boston suburb of Watertown after a bloody night of shooting and explosions in the city's streets. A national security official identified the hunted man as Dzhokar A. Tsarnaev, 19, and said the dead suspect was his brother, Tamerlan Tsarneav, 26. The brothers had been in the United States for several years, the official said.

The same man who stood on the Senate floor and vowed to make a sitting President a "one-term president,"has issued a statement saying that he is "committed" to supporting Donald Trump for president – Trump, a man who has successfully demonstrated the mannerism of a 3rd grade school boy.
"I have committed to supporting the nominee chosen by Republican voters, and Donald Trump, the presumptive nominee, is now on the verge of clinching that nomination," McConnell said in a 75-word statement.
"Republicans are committed to preventing what would be a third term of Barack Obama and restoring economic and national security after eight years of a Democrat in the White House," McConnell said. "As the presumptive nominee, he now has the opportunity and the obligation to unite our party around our goals."

A couple of months ago, I read a post by Rebekah at BEXLIFE.com about taking a Gym Diet. She is a fellow blogger and FitFluential Ambassador.
I started to think about this gym diet idea and
after completing my first Triathlon in August
and a Dirty Girl run in September
I was feeling run-down, tired, possibly overtraining and family/work wise, I found that I was getting REALLY busy!
So… I took a GYM DIET!!
Can you guess what happened from me taking my gym diet?
First thing I noticed was that I lost weight!
Yup, being 5'8″, I like to keep my (goal) weight between 130-135 lbs
My weight does fluctuate daily but as you can see, I am within my goal.
I should be happy right?
Well, losing weight is great and all,
BUT, how do I feel?
What do I look like?
Do my clothes fit better or worse?
Do I still have the same strength and muscles?
What's the good, the bad and the ugly of taking a Gym Diet?
What did I discover from taking a Gym Diet?
1) I miss Running a lot. It clears my head, relieve stress and help me to focus
Otherwise, I am all over the map. I have the Shiny Object Syndrom just like Kelly Olexa
But, after a scary run this past summer and all of the bad stories I have been hearing
about attacks on women running outside, I am quite nervous to run alone now.
Sad but true.
2) I miss Kick-boxing a LOT too! It helps me to relieve some stress from my daily life
I am a firm believer that hitting a bag is the MOST fun way to feel strong and powerful
3) Eating healthy helps my body function at its peak level.
All of the (excuse me) "crap food" out there (see my past post on GMO's) can really make you feel like you ARE WHAT YOU EAT!
I do have to be honest and say that it has been nice not worrying SO much about what I eat and letting
myself indulge a little more than I normally would.
According to my family, it is nice to see me eating like a "real" person.
Eating healthy is REAL and it is ME!
4) Exercise and eating healthy will my body stay healthy and not get sick.
Luckily, I didn't get sick during this two month "adventure" but being tired all of the time is almost just as bad.
5) Exercise gives me better quality sleep and I don't feel so tired in the morning or during the day.
It is amazing how you can get up at 5 am, punch out a workout/run/swim, etc…
and physically feel SO much better than if you had slept in until 10am.
6) My clothes fit better.
I have lost weight but my clothes definitely fit worse. They are less comfy… jeans especially.
7) I don't feel as Strong as I was. I can definitely see a loss of definition in my arms
and I am sad that I let it go. BUT, I will get it back.
So, this past Monday I started doing INSANITY by Beachbody.
Yes, it is that crazy workout program you have seen on TV.
I have heard SO many great things about the program and
I really think that it will help
me get back into my daily routine of working out again.
The daily workouts are between 40-60 minutes and the
really nice thing about it…
I can do them from the comfort of my own home 🙂
AND, my kids LOVE doing it with me too! Double BONUS!
I also plan to start running again. Maybe outside or maybe
on a treadmill.
The incident that I had over the summer kind of scarred me… okay
it scarred me A LOT.
BUT… I will not let it stop me from doing something I love.
I just have to be really smart about it.
I have set 10 goals for myself to start this month to get back on track!
1) I will NOT overtrain and get myself run-down again
2) I will start and finish the entire INSANITY
3) I will make my meals as clean as possible each day
4) I will drink my Shakeology each day for breakfast
(the Tropical Berry is SO delicious and Vegan, non-dairy and non-GMO)
5) I will drink LOTS of water each day (something I work on really hard each day)
6) I will keep myself accountable via Facebook, Instagram and Twitter
so make sure to follow me @spotonwellness
7) I will post my progress here on my blog as well as in my Accountablity group
on Facebook (Keep Me Accountable… search for it and request to join)
8) I will look ahead at my calendar each week to make sure
I schedule time each day to complete the workouts
9) I will prepare my food ahead of time so I don't feel the need
to buy unhealthy options when I am starving
10) I will have FUN!

Great addon... compatible with Linux Rated 4 out of 5 stars
Great addon. Compatible with Linux contrary to what the page says.This review is for a previous version of the add-on (19.3.1-signed). This user has 2 previous reviews of this add-on.
Rated 4 out of 5 stars
I installed the 5th version on my Linux and I greatly miss Stationery.
I will patiently wait for the addon posting on AMO.
Wish luck to the developer.
Rated 4 out of 5 stars
"But with new version 188.8.131.52, I have a bug. tabs are colored perfect, but also the navigation bar have now a color instead of to be transparent. I'm using personas on win xp3, so it's bad with it. "
I had the same problem on Ubuntu 10.10.
The problem doesn't come from the addon, but it comes from the profile.
You switched from FF 3.6 to FF 4. Since FF 4 is a major release, your profile mixed up between the two versions.
The only solution to fix your problem is deleting the profile you currently use and create a brand new profile for FF 4.
I know it's tedious, but there is not much better to do apart :(
Rated 4 out of 5 stars
After having installed this addon, you need to restart your browser twice.
But apart this small bug, I still enjoy this addon even after years of use. Indispensable when you have a cognitive impairment like ADHD ;)
Download Statusbar

Great to manage your downloads :DThis review is for a previous version of the add-on (0.9.8.1-signed.1-signed).
English (Australian) Dictionary

Good work :)
Unfortunately, modifying the install.rdf file doesn't make the extension work with FF4 :(
So time to make it compatible ;)
Quick Locale Switcher
Rated 3 out of 5 stars
I find it excellent ! I don't use it very often, but each time I use it, I am satisfied :-D
The only *slight* problem is the difficulty to find the languages packs.... :-(
But once you found them, it's a piece of cake ;-)
Dictionary Switcher
Rated 4 out of 5 stars
One of the most useful addon I've ever used :-) (for FF and for Thunderbird).
I write in French, Italian, English and Greek and I appreciate very much to switch from a language to another :-D
The only problem is that sometimes (not very often, but it's annoying), the displayed language and the real corrected language don't match. I solve the problem by right-clicking an underlined word and changing the language :-D
Scientific Calculator
Rated 4 out of 5 stars
A great calculator, I recommand it for people with dyscalculia because it's very useful even for simple Maths calculating :-)
The only problem is that to calculate percentages, the guide provided above is quite confusing (I am terrible at Maths, I had 3/20 during all my school years). This is the only drawback which made me to put "only" 4 stars....
Personas Plus
Rated 5 out of 5 stars
A superb and very useful addon !
I can't wait to be on Thunderbird v.3 to have it also on Thunderbird !
Keep it up :-D
