The Super Deluxe Bow & Arrow Set can turn anyone into a master of archery. Have you always admired William Tell, the legendary figure who shot an apple off his son's head? Maybe you want to portray Robin Hood, that forest-dwelling righter of wrongs. Perhaps you're interested in Halloween costumes that depict bow-wielding characters from hit movies and TV shows like Rambo, The Hunger Games, Avatar, and Game of Thrones. Maybe you just like playing with arrows in your yard. In any event, bows and arrows have held a powerful mystique in the public imagination long after more technologically sophisticated weapons became available. It might be that the feel of a bow and the sight of an arrow whizzing by can transport a person to ancient times, back to the days when all adults were hunters or gatherers and truly at one with nature. Indeed, you may experience a sense of primal power when you hold these beautifully crafted pieces in your hands. You could have an urge to place an apple on someone's head as well.

Through Hippo, Girl is able to allay her fears and gain confidence in her early childhood years.
'Joyful and brimming with childhood wonder, HIPPO! HIPPO! A BIG NEW Musical Adventure! will make you laugh and maybe even make you cry, but most of all, it is guaranteed to lift your spirits in a BIG and UNBEATABLE way!

The Alabama Court of Criminal Appeals ruled Friday to overturn the killer's conviction and subsequent death penalty.
Carlos Edward Kennedy was not allowed to represent himself as requested. That was grounds for the reversal.
According to AL.com:
Kennedy was convicted of attacking White inside her home. Police found blood with DNA matching Kennedy, along with a palm print and a fingerprint. Investigators also found seminal fluid during an autopsy of White, although it lacked sperm and, therefore, did not contain DNA. White had a successful real estate career before becoming active in politics. She volunteered on the gubernatorial campaign of Bob Riley and later joined his administration at the Alabama Department of Economic and Community Affairs.
Please report typos...
A state appeals court is overturning the capital murder conviction and death sentence of a man accused of killing a woman during a burglary in Mobile County.
The Alabama Court of Criminal Appeals ruled Friday that a judge should have let Carlos Edward Kennedy represent himself during his trial in the 2010 slaying of Zoa White.
The judge initially let Kennedy act as his own lawyer but reversed himself before the case went to trial.
White was a real estate agent brutally murdered with a hammer inside her Spring Hill Avenue home.

Laborites Peek Into Welfare Reform
July 2, 1997
Even Britain's newly-empowered Labor Party knows something must be done about welfare there, but steps being proposed are far more timid than last year's U.S. reforms, observers say.
They question, in fact, whether any European country has the stomach to launch serious reforms.
- Britain's Prime Minister Tony Blair is presenting a welfare-to-work proposal with a price tag of $5 billion.
- "There is no staying-at-home-in-bed option," announced the Chancellor of the Exchequer in describing the plan -- which aims to halve benefits to welfare recipients who refuse to join in a job hunt.
- Critics say one major flaw in the Laborites' five-year reform plan is that it's financed through a tax on privatized utilities -- a "tax on success."
- Young Britons, among whom unemployment is at 10 percent -- compared to an overall jobless rate of 5.8 percent -- are the targets of the back-to-work drive.
Under Blair's plan, those less than 25 years old would have four options:
- Take a six-month job with a private company -- which would be paid a subsidy of 60 pounds a week for each unemployed youth hired.
- Do volunteer work.
- Join an environmental task force.
- Enroll in a full-time educational course.
A weekly subsidy of 75 pounds would be offered to employers who hired those over 25 who have been unemployed more than two years. Pilot programs are to begin next January in 15 areas, to be expanded nationwide in April.
One concern is that no new jobs would be created. Employers would simply hire subsidized workers rather than unsubsidized ones.

Charlie Peprah DB FA 5 years ago
Cowboys agreed to terms with S Charlie Peprah.
Peprah has been out of the league since being released by the Packers for failing his physical on the first day of training camp. If his knees are now healthy, Peprah can provide experienced depth at a position of need in Dallas.
Charlie Peprah DB FA 5 years ago
The Bears are considering signing free agent S Charlie Peprah.
Charlie Peprah DB FA 5 years ago
Packers released SS Charlie Peprah.
Peprah received a $50,000 workout bonus in the spring and was due only $1 million in base salary. The move is a big surprise on the first day of training camp, although Peprah missed all of OTA season with knee woes and might not have been healthy. A 14-game starter in 2011, Peprah intercepted five passes and recorded 94 tackles. The Packers may turn to M.D. Jennings at strong safety, assuming they don't just move Charles Woodson there full time.
Charlie Peprah DB FA 5 years ago
Packers SS Charlie Peprah is sitting out OTAs after undergoing arthroscopic knee surgery earlier in the offseason.
Peprah should be back in plenty of time of training camp. M.D. Jennings, who came out of nowhere to make the roster as an undrafted rookie last season, displayed good range while filling in on Tuesday. While Peprah remains the favorite to start, Jennings and rookie Jerron McMillian could push him by the end of the season.

Spine Chillin' Halloween Ice Cream Floats are so easy to make plus they are so yummy! With only two ingredients, vanilla ice cream and orange soda (plus 2 more to make it over-the-top special – whipped cream and orange sprinkles), these chillin' floats are a special treat to serve for Halloween.
A few of us went to the pumpkin patch the other day. It was a Tuesday and the Princesses P were out of school by 12:30. So, we decided to beat the weekend crowds at the very popular Bates Nut Farm in San Diego County by going Tuesday afternoon. We've never been during the week in the month of October and what a relaxing time we had. Plus, our weather was a little bit cooler, in the 80's instead of 100+, so the afternoon was quite perfect.
Afterwards, the gang came over to my house to have a special Halloween dinner. I've already shared a couple of things from our party, Fried Vampire Bat Wings and Little Debbie Bat Brownies (and there will be more to come over the next few weeks), and my Spine Chillin' Halloween Ice Cream Floats were a hit! Princess Sweetie Pie, the master float conjurer (with an assist from her mom, Tiffany), declared them "delicious!"
Here's Princess Sweetie Pie asking to help make the punch.
Tiffany scooping vanilla ice cream into the cute Halloween punch bowl with Princess Sweetie Pie standing by, patiently waiting her turn to help.
Next, the two of them add the orange soda to the punch bowl.
Close-up of cute little hands helping to pour the orange soda; Spine Chillin' Halloween Ice Cream Floats halfway finished!
Older sister, Princess P (who was working on other recipes), decides she wants to see what's going on. Aren't those Boo glasses the cutest things ever? I got them last year at Joanne's in the dollar bin. They only had 6 left, but I scarfed them up!
Here's a close-up of Spine Chillin' Halloween Ice Cream Floats bubbling away!
Now it's time to stir – so serious!
I told her to "smile for the camera", so I got this shot! See her hand in motion? So cool! It's extremely hard to photograph kids in motion – you have to take a thousand photos to get one good shot (just kidding; but you have to take a lot!).
Here's Princess Sweetie Pie hamming it up for the camera – this really reflects her true personality! She's a card and loves to be silly (at 5, silly is a good thing!).
Once nicely blended, Tiffany poured Spine Chillin' Halloween Ice Cream Floats in these cute Boo glasses. She used a funnel so that we wouldn't drip all over the glasses and have a major clean-up problem before sipping our concoction. Last step – I topped each with whipped cream from a can (a "toot sweet" short-cut) and Tiffany and the girls added orange sprinkles to the top of each.
Then, Princess Sweetie Pie and I set-up for the photo shoot. I asked her to put the spooky fabric over the chair and got a silly goofy response.
While I snapped away, she hid behind the chair giving me spooky eyes.
It was night time in the kitchen, with both fluorescent lighting and incandescent lighting, no natural light to be found! But, photo editing helped make these fun pictures in spite of the poor lighting.
Spine Chillin' Halloween Ice Cream Floats are every bit as delicious as they look! Cold (spine chillin'), frosty and creamy, they taste like a 50/50 ice cream bar that has melted.
I didn't forget to make a collage for Pinterest! Don't forget to pin Spine Chillin' Halloween Ice Cream Floats to your Pinterest boards – thanks a bunch!
Here's the recipe:
- 1 quart vanilla ice cream
- 1 - 2 liter bottle orange soda
- Ready Whip whipped cream
- Orange sprinkles
- Remove ice cream from freezer and allow to soften a few minutes.
- Scoop into punch bowl.
- Pour orange soda over ice cream in punch bowl and stir to combine.
- Use a funnel to pour into tall narrow glasses or use a ladle to scoop into wider-mouth glasses.
- Top each glass with a squirt of whipped cream followed by orange sprinkles.

Two reports requests:
1. The "compare multiple campaigns" chart is a good idea, but badly implemented... this should be a bar chart, not a line chart! The lines make it look like there's a trend among campaigns, when in fact the only connection is probably that campaigns that have been active longer have more opens. I showed this chart to my client and she was totally confused by the lines. Separate bars would help reinforce the concept that this is the performance of separate campaigns.
2. It would be nice to be able to generate "time-of-day" reports summed over more than one day. That is, for each hour or quarter-hour, but over the entire length of the campaign (so the 8:00 bar would count everyone who opened it at 8:00, whether it was on the first day of the campaign or the sixth).
Thanks for listening! Comments, anyone?
I will second feature request one. A line graph really is a poor choice when doing a comparative analysis of separate campaigns when there is no trend. A bar graph makes much more sense for the information that is being conveyed in the reports.
Thanks for the feedback guys, we'll look at some better options to present the compare campaign reports. Some really nice insights and very much appreciated.

One of the most important tactics that a business owner can pursue is the idea of grooming and developing an eventual replacement. Unfortunately, far too many don't address this issue in a timely manner and are left forced to do so when one of the Big D's hit – Death, Divorce, Disablement, Disagreement, and Disinterest.
This is how Kenneth Greenberg of Auctus Search Partners, LLC describes the importance of planning for succession:
According to a recent study by the Center for the Middle Market, 45% of middle market businesses face challenges lining up successors for critical roles in the business…
Middle market businesses are frequently overly dependent upon owners and a few key executives for core competencies and the company's strategic vision.
Business owners that we meet usually state that their No. 1 reason for failing to adequately plan for their succession is simply a lack of time. This is largely overcome by identifying a successor early in the life of the business and beginning to mentor several years before the planned departure. Again, Greenberg puts it this way:
Even if a transfer of control isn't in the business' near-term plan, it's crucial for owners and their senior leadership to identify and develop a bench to fill key executive roles. The bench can be internal existing junior executives that are developed into leaders; external recruits with deep industry knowledge and leadership skills, or a combination of both.
We recognize that the idea of "developing a bench" of associates to be mentored and groomed for key roles to many entrepreneurs is a non-starter. It takes time, hard work, and forward thinking to do this. But the value to you as the business owner will pay off later when negotiating with buyers. As we have said for years, buyers hate risk and try to avoid or minimize it at all costs. If a business is dependent on the current owner for key daily decisions and no successor has been prepared (or even identified), many buyers will be concerned.
The issue you need to realize as a business owner is that you could be leaving thousands and thousands of dollars in unrealized value on the table. To protect that value, all you need to do is hire, train, and mentor a solid person to replace you. When you consider the impact on your financial legacy, it makes sense to go through a succession plan replacement program.

'Grey's Anatomy' Recap: Richard Makes a Life-Altering Decision
S8E16: One element Grey's Anatomy prides itself on is its ability to make the audience deeply feel for its characters. Grey's won't let us sit idly by, not feeling the emotional pull of each and every character. We've grown to know and love them on their journey as both doctors and regular people, so when they hurt, we hurt as well — a fact made abundantly clear in this episode.
Normally Shonda Rhimes draws our attention to the younger couples: Callie/Arizona, Mark/Lexie, Cristina/Owen, and of course Meredith/Derek. These pairings have become the major focal point for most of the show's romantic stories, however, this episode temporarily shifted the primary focus away from them and onto Richard and Adele, whose story has thus far been more of a subplot. But with Adele's Alzheimer's worsening, Richard soon realizes he must face one of the toughest decisions any spouse ever has to make. It's a heart-wrenching topic to undertake, however, Grey's handles it will the delicacy and care it deserves, making us root for their happy ending just as much as we have for Meredith and her McDreamy. You might want to have tissues on hand.
"Ever seen a baby that weighs less than a pound?" – Alex
"No because babies that weigh less than 16 ounces don't survive." – Lexie
Lexie joins Arizona and Alex in pediatrics for the day in the hopes of getting a break from Derek's "lost cause" brain patients. However, she finds that everything isn't all pacifiers and cute baby noises in peds when she's assigned to work with Alex on the intern, Morgan's, premature son. The baby is dangerously small and in constant need of observation, which causes Morgan's boyfriend (and the baby's father) to give up based on all the negative odds. He suggests that maybe the baby just wasn't meant to be born, which ends in Morgan kicking him out of her life. And good riddance too, since it looks like things could be heating up with Morgan and Alex somewhere down the line. Now that he's back to being the sweet, adorable Karev we all know and love, it will be easy to get onboard with this pairing. It's about time Alex was shown some love.
"This is sexual harassment – you know that, right?" – April
"I like to think of that as sexual encouragement." – Mark
When an espresso machine explodes in a coffee shop, Meredith and Cristina are assigned to Devin: the victim of the explosion who's hopelessly in love with the coffee shop's barista. However, it turns out she doesn't feel the same way about him, a fact that Cristina makes him aware of in the bluntest way possible. And while this would normally seem like just another insensitive Cristina thing to do, it's very reflective of just how much she's hurting over the whole Owen ordeal. Throughout the episode, she's overcome with the fear that Owen is cheating on her, which quickly grows into an obsession. She, like Devin, can't bear the thought of being forgotten — something that the old Cristina would have never cared about. This preoccupation shows how much her character has changed since meeting Owen. But as for whether suspicions are actually true, the truth remains unclear. Although, if this distance and lack of communication continues, it could very well be possible.
Meanwhile, Avery accidentally snaps at his patient thanks to his obsession with studying for the boards. This prompts Mark to offer some sage advice: get laid. He even tells April that she and Avery could become something a little more than just study buddies — an idea she doesn't exactly get too thrilled about. And although this doesn't initially seem like a pivotal plot point, it reveals a significant piece of intel. After Mark tries and tries to pimp Avery out, he confides to Mark that he just can't be with someone right now. And even though he doesn't come out and say it, Mark takes it to mean that he's still in love with Lexie. And since Mark probably still has feelings for Lexie too, that could mean trouble for their newfound bromance. Let's hope not.
"I have Alzheimer's, don't I?" – Adele
Then we come to the most significant story line of the entire episode. After Adele accidentally starts a fire in the kitchen, Richard considers moving her to an assisted living facility. But when they go visit, Adele comments that it's too small for the both of them, especially if they want to start a family. Of course, this is an example of one of her Alzheimer's episodes – in that moment she believes they're a young couple just starting out. Overcome with sadness, Richard changes his mind and immediately takes her home.
But as Adele's condition worsens, it slowly takes a toll on Richard's emotions. Eventually he breaks down crying at the dining room table, literally at a loss of for how to handle his wife's affliction. But then Adele enters the room, fully returned to her cognitive state of mind. She now realizes the extent of her condition and pleads with Richard to let her go to the assisted living facility. He tries to fight it, but she insists, not because she really wants to go, but because she knows it's the best thing for Richard. The fact that they're both trying so hard to do what's right for the other shows just how much love the two of them share. It's downright heartbreaking and proves that there are things even the finest medical surgeons can't prevent. It makes their characters excruciatingly real and truly added an extra layer of value to the relationship – and to the series itself.
What did you think of tonight's episode? Were you pleased to see the Adele-Richard story take center stage? Will a romance spark between Alex and Morgan? Is Avery going to let Lexie know his true feelings? Sound off in the comments or get at me on Twitter @KellyBean0415.

Cyberjaya, Malaysia (PressExposure) February 01, 2012 -- DTMF Networks SDN BHD is an MSC Status company in Malaysia that is known for state of the art telecom solutions & services provided by them. They are offering Switch and vBOSS, Hosted Softswitch and VoIP Billing Management on a wholesale basis to VoIP operators and VoIP Termination service providers that want top technology NGN carrier-grade switching, billing & routing capabilities.

A senior executive of the company said, "We employ market leading Genband Softswitch, Session Border Controllers, top-of-the-line VoIP billing solution, all hosted at state-of-the-art collocation facility in Boston, US ensuring highly reliable and cost effective services to our customers across the globe. With our choice of softswitch & billing platforms including hardware and software systems etc. we can cater to full range of Class-4 VoIP service needs."
The company has outlined many benefits of their hosted services. These include the immediate access wholesale VoIP operators have to deploy service models based on Next Generation Class-4 Softswitch technology. They can move ahead without being delayed by the need to setting up the infrastructure and getting a team. This will lead to lesser costs of ownership and operations as well. Moreover, these operators have the peace of mind that they can rely on skilled and experienced core NGN Engineers to manage their switching operations.
A senior executive of the company stressed on the fact that their services provide for a reliable alternative to the use of unreliable softswitches.

At first I thought the problem was with the sites, but everything works fine on 3G. I tried multiple websites, and I've been getting mixed results. This phone is new, I just exchanged my last phone for it a few days ago, and my grace period ends tomorrow. Does this sound like an issue that is the fault of the phone hardware, software, or am I just over reacting? I'm concerned because tomorrow is the last day I can exchange it, and I want to make sure that there is nothing wrong with the wifi radio.

According to the newspaper's headline report, the countries that will participate in a coalition against Iran will freeze assets and will impose sanctions on commerce with Iran. This upcoming Thursday the ultimatum put forth by the UN to Tehran to halt uranium enrichment within the framework of UN Resolution 1696 will expire.
The US believes that Japan and the European trio - Germany, France, and Britain � will provide the base for international rallying outside the Security Council in the case that Russia and China block the sanctions.
The most immediate sanctions will be directed at the Iranian administration, and will not, at this stage, hurt the Iranian people. The American proposal will include a prohibition on the Iranian leadership from traveling outside their country, and a freezing of Iranian leadership's assets outside of Iran. This comes on the heels of attempted sanctions on Iraq, which hurt the Iranian people, but not Saddam Hussein.
Bolton sounded optimistic in his interview saying that Russia and China will agree to impose sanctions after they see the suggested version. Bolton clarified that if Russia and China don't agree to sanctions in the Security Council, American diplomacy is already in action to achieve sanctions outside the framework of the UN.
The Los Angeles Times writes that according to US terrorism laws, the US can impose its own sanctions on Iran, and can, for instance, stop ships carrying missiles and material connected to nuclear production on their way to Iran.
"You don't need Security Council authority to impose sanctions, just as we have," Bolton said. "We will continue to enhance Proliferation Security Initiatives to cut off flows of materials and technology that are useful to Iran's ballistic missile program and nuclear programs. We will be constraining financial transactions under existing terrorism laws."
Bolton clarified in the interview that the US would focus efforts to pressure Japanese and European banks to stop doing business with Iran. This is a hint that the US Treasury Department is holding talks with other countries, which Bolton refused to identify. The Treasury Department reported that they are already seeing the fruits of this effort, including a decision by Switzerland's Union Bank to cut off relations with Iran.

What causes people to become workaholics?
I have a question.
What causes many Americans and Asians to become workaholics?
Is it money, or is that the excuse?
Is it that they have a passion for their work?
Or is it that they are fearful and insecure deep down and so they need some outside structure to focus on cause they can't face their inner emptiness?
What do you think?

I've been baffled by the number of people I've meet (especially 30-50 somethings) who seem to have a need to feel that their job has some greater meaning, that they should be enthusiastic about it, all that jazz. I think they don't want to confront their own misery.
Read the book The Great Good Place by sociologist Ray Oldenburg. His thesis is that Americans in the post-WWII era have eliminated "third places," where people go to escape the first two -- home and workplace -- and refuel themselves psychologically. So, if you're down to just home and the workplace, and you have an American woman waiting for you at home, or no one, where are you going to spend most of your time?
Now, the fact that Americans spend ungodly hours at the workplace, doesn't mean they're working efficiently. Looking at American message boards online, pretty much all the action is from noon Monday to noon Friday. During the times when they're supposed to be working, they're killing time online.
So workaholism is a term that needs to be qualified. It's more a problem of not having anywhere else to go.
Come to think of it, the worst aspect of all the job's I've worked at was not so much the long hours or the work itself. It was the assumption, both on the part of coworkers, bosses, and also customers, that one should be all smiley and enthusiastic, even if said job is a piece of shit. Trying to conform to that is absolutely MADDENING, particularly for an introverted anti-mainstream thinker like myself.
Dumb ass redneck or trailer park rubes who think they are entitled to preferential treatment are the worst. Many of the likely have to work in crappy service jobs themselves so it baffles me that they appear to have such a lack of empathy for others in customer service positions.
I heard of a study done about 10 years ago that stated 80% of Americans hate their jobs. I believe it, how many people do you know who wake up on Monday morning and say, "wow, I can't wait to go to work today!"
America IS a workaholic country, I think it might have something to do with the "protestant work ethic" drummed into people's mind over a hundred years ago. Some people have told me, even if they win the lottery they would continue to work! WTF?
I guess if you don't have a life outside of your job (like hobbies, or friends or school) all you will want to do is work. I think people who are workaholics have some deep emotional issues they need to resolve. Who in their right mind would place working as the centerpiece of their life? These people need to get "a life" and stop working so much.
Nobody on their death bed says, "I wish I spent more time working and less time having fun."
The basic doctrine of American employement law is "at-will employment", which specifics that any hiring is "at will", the employer is free to discharge for any reason, and the employee is free to quit for any reason.
Don't like your job? Quit! Find something else to do!
Well, I sure know what makes me workaholic- it is the money that I will earn if I work so that I can then party like hell and make all my dreams come true. There is no other reason.
A brain is a terrible thing to wash!
It's funny, American workers are the most productive workers in the world and they get the least amount of time off! 35% of American workers get NO vacation at all! The average American worker get's 2 weeks of vacation a year, the average workers in Germany, France and Italy get 5 to 6 weeks of vacation per year!
Most people would love to quit their jobs but they can't find anything else so they are stuck in a shitty job until retirement! Even college degrees won't always help you get a good job. I saw an article on the internet a few months ago that said only 34% of college graduates got jobs where they were using their college degree! 66% had jobs that did not require a college degree and were low paying jobs (like service jobs, retail, fastfood, telemarketing and customer service).
In the USA it's life, liberty and the pursuit of a paycheck! lol
Which shows that the economy is not doing so well. It really sounds more like Mexico than the richest country in the world.
I was in Oil Arab countries for a decade and these really give their citizens many many opportunities and really take care of them. I think happiness is being a Gulf Arab. Once you get a cushy job there, you live like a king!
A brain is a terrible thing to wash!
But that's not what I'm talking about. You are just a temporary workaholic. The kind of workaholic I'm talking about doesn't party or have fun. They just work and have no other interests and are addicted to it too.

"It takes far less effort to find and move to the society that has what you want than it does to try to reconstruct an existing society to match your standards." - Harry Browne, How I Found Freedom in an Unfree World
It's simple, it's an escape from problems they would rather not face. Whether it be relationship troubles or something else.
My sense is that in the US at least, it's about out-doing the other guy, so you can feel better about yourself. Remember all those dumb bumperstickers that people had that said, "whoever dies with the most toys, wins"? That pretty much sums it up. Perhaps there's also an element of being terrified of losing your job (and your house, wife, kids, etc.), since there's no real safety net here. I've worked in soup kitchens before, where I met middle-aged guys, who got laid off, then their wife (gold digger) left them, they lost the house, the cars, the kids, etc. and were on the street in a matter of 6 months. You see a lot of that going on in the US right now, with the 3rd world economy we have. Since so few Americans had either the sense or the wherewithal to save money while they worked, they quickly find themselves on the street. I'm in the same boat, but my wife and I scrimped and saved while we were working, and now have a nest egg, which we will use to start a new life in Italy. Thank God!
I think it's important to keep this phenomenon in the same post-WWII historical perspective that is useful for some of the other developments discussed here, notwithstanding any "Protestant work ethic" inheritance of the United States. Calvinism hasn't been a major force in the U.S. in over 200 years, though the idea of "outward signs" of God's benevolence reflecting "elect" status is still here in some degree.
But the guys who came back from WWII had no interest in working their tails off. If you go back and look at magazines from the 1950s, one of the big issues discussed was how people were going to use all the leisure time they had when the 20-hour work week became a reality. When I entered the labor force in 1973, nobody ever did much work, at least in the federal bureaucracy where I was employed. The workplace was still mostly male then.
A few years later, though, it had all changed. Yuppies were flaunting their Beamers and square footage in their McMansions. People were bragging about how many hours they put in at the office. Truly bizarre.
I think all of the possible causes put forward here have some validity. Fundamentally, I think it's some sort of compensation for barren lives created by a barren culture.
But you younger guys need to keep in mind that this is all something new. I can remember when American women were human beings.

After watching the Week 15 matchups, Scouts Inc. shares these key observations:
1. Dallas Cowboys TE Jason Witten has been terrific since Jason Garrett has taken over as head coach. The Cowboys are using a lot more heavy run-oriented personnel and have featured Witten more as a receiver. This is especially true in light of their wide receiver injuries, but it is just another testament to Witten's value and versatility. He remains a great blocker for the run game and in pass protection. And his feel for running routes and getting open is second to none. He is sure-handed and quick to get upfield after the catch. In the Cowboys' 33-30 victory over the Washington Redskins, quarterback Jon Kitna targeted Witten a whopping 12 times. Witten caught 10 of them for 140 yards and one touchdown. He's one of the best in the business.

Just saw this: http://www.umixitmusic.com/
Basically, it provides you with the isolated audio tracks of a song, along with mixing software. Don't like the guitar solo? Record your own!
I haven't tried it yet, but I'm betting I will soon. The only technical downside I see at the moment is that you can only export your song in 128KBPS WMA. I prefer higher bitrate encodings, thank you.
Hopefully this concept will take off, and the owning companies won't try to nickel and dime us too much.

The origin of the Jobot Project
A long time ago, in the 1980s, there was no World Wide Web. Most families didn't even have a computer, although the home computer became relatively popular.
A couple of months ago, in the year 2016, I found an old ELIZA-clone that I wrote in QuickBASIC a long time ago. I opened it using a compatible BASIC interpreter called QB64. Since QB64 is a Windows based language, I was wondering if it was possible to use the Microsoft Speech API (SAPI). Unfortunately QB64 didn't support it. But I didn't give up. I converted the text to speech using the SHELL command and external software. After installing Visual Studio, I made a better version of the software that could also convert speech to text. I asked myself: "Why don't you make a robot, Jo. A Jo-bot?"
An old version of Jobot, written in QB64
What can Jobot do? (updated 10/24/16)
Jobot can talk, listen (using Microsoft SAPI), take pictures, tell jokes, give information.
What is Jobot made of? (updated 10/24/16)
- A housing made of thick aluminum.
Jotbot future plans
- A unique SAPI voice instead a standard one.

Injuries suck.
It's one thing to hurt yourself riding but another to have an injury or health issue that has nothing to do with riding keep you from enjoying the sweet taste of singletrack. I have not been able to ride for a few months now and not only does it affect me, but everyone around me as well.
Riding is my therapy. When I am out on the trail nothing else matters, you don't have the luxury of thinking about that "special" client at work or what bill is not going to get paid this month, because if you do you end up hugging a tree at high speed, and believe me that is not nearly as much fun as it may sound.
|When I can't ride I get creative with macro mode on my phone
When it is just me and my bike out there working together to conquer the trail in front of me, all the crap just melts away and by the end of the ride I feel like my soul just got scrubbed down and all the cobwebs and slime that bring me down gets blasted away and left all over the forest.
When I don't ride, that is a different story. All that crap just keeps building up, and I may not notice it right away but others around me sure do. My awesome girlfriend will ask me "Hey Rivers when was the last time you got out for a ride?" and I take that as a gentle nod from her that I may be a bit grumpy and she knows the cleaning power of the ride.
I know it affects my work as well, I really try to not let it get to me. I am a grown man, I can control these things, but no matter how hard I try the build up of crap pops out at the worst times.
In the end I just have to remember that I will ride again, maybe go downstairs to the bike dungeon and wrench on my bike a bit and take the time to remember how lucky we are to be able to ride these amazing metal beasts.
I know all it will take is one ride to wash away all of this nasty buildup, but till then I would like to let those around me know that I am not crazy…just a little ride deprived and I am sorry for any extra grumpiness that I may send your way.

What do you get when you mix vibrantly rich colours, spiny and textured florals, luxe details and stunning images together? Gorgeous rustic romantic wedding style of course! Brought to us lucky peachies today by the lovely and talented team at Chalk and Cheese Photography, this rustic winter wedding themed photo shoot is just the bit of winter prettiness to take my mind off the smoldering heat that is Hong Kong right now. The vibrant florals are positively stunning and need I remind you how much I love seeing succulents in arrangements?! Probably not. Every bit of this photo shoot is a gem and I'm sure you'll agree once you join me in soaking up all the gorgeousness right here.
From Melody of Chalk and Cheese Photography: "Winter tends to be the off-peak season for weddings, which means for the smart bride and groom this is always the perfect time of the year to take advantage of special deals from most suppliers. It's also a great time of the year for a garden wedding. We wanted to show how you could use greenery and what is usually considered a 'Spring' wedding venue to achieve a romantic rustic wedding. We used a colour palette of grayed jade, accented with whites and oranges to create a romantic yet fun feel, and added to this elements of browns to give it an earthy look. A collection of small jars were used for poppys, chrysanthemums and candles which we placed on the wooden table over which we hung a giant frame filled with overhanging winter greenery – this became our aerial centrepiece. The unique winter bouquet of carnations, fern, poppies and succulents completed the floral arrangements. Our invitations, menus and table numbers were created from textured hay cards and tied with white string. We added elements of fun by using old beer bottles with colourful straws and for our bomboniere we used jars of colourful lollies tied with string with a tag 'Love is sweet'. There was no seating plan, so we just had all the guests name up on the wall and they could grab their name and just take a seat anywhere on the long communal table with the bride and groom. The bride wore a beautiful lace dress finished off with a diamond belt and to complete the rustic look she wore a floral crown of vines and fresh flowers. We're hoping this inspires more couples to have beautiful, crisp winter wedding."

What is rape?
Rape is when someone forces another person to have sex against their will - find out what 'consent' means below. Most rape victims are female, but men can be victims too.
Sexual assault is being forced or pressured to take part in sexual activity including unwanted touching, 'sexting' (texting sexual images), being forced to watch or be involved in pornography or sexual bullying.
Rape or sexual assault can be committed by a stranger, but it's more likely to be someone you know.
The definition of 'consent'
A person consents if he or she agrees by choice, and has the freedom and capacity to make that choice.
Watch this short video explaining sex without consent is rape - it's as simple as tea!
Copyright ©2015 Emmeline May and Blue Seat Studios
A detailed definition of 'consent' can be found by visiting this page of the CPS website.
What to do if you've been raped
Rape and sexual assault are violent crimes that can have a devastating affect.
If you have been raped or sexually assaulted it's important to remember that:
- you are not to blame; the person who raped or assaulted you is to blame
- you do not have to cope on your own
- there are many support services that can help you. They know how difficult it is for people to come forward and will respect and believe you
If this has happened to you, try and find someone you trust to talk to. It doesn't have to be someone in authority; just someone that you feel comfortable with.
Reporting a rape
If you've been raped or sexually assaulted, you can report it to the police.
If you're under 17, the Child Protection Unit of your local police will deal with your case.
Additional support is also available, including:

Motivation is great. I think of it as the initial building block of success, that spark to ignite the fire of passion which smolders inside all of us. However, it can only take us so far. You can read as many books and watch as many videos as you want, but what will be there to take its place once the flames begin to dwindle and we slowly sink back into our monotonous routines and self-destructive habits?
Discipline. Our journeys to success start with motivation, with that spark, and end with us reaching our goals. But there's a lot of space in-between the two. A space full of a lot of difficult, not-so-fun things. That's where self-discipline comes in. Disciplining ourselves, hardwiring our minds for success. Suddenly, the menial tasks seem less menial, the stressful times more manageable, for we have something else pushing us forward.

text: I've been moving the tension up on my racquets (full bed of multi in a 90sq in frame). The last batch I did at 63 pounds, and it seems this may be too tight for a multi because when the strings move on impact with the ball they just tear eachother apart. I like the tighter feel, but I'm thinking I may have to move to natural gut if I want to string this tight or tighter in the future and still have the same type feeling string. Any comments or recommendations from anyone? Thanks

Brandywine Creek
Brandywine was the first course converted to an 18 hole layout in Delaware. "Steady" Ed Headrick himself came out and gave advice on course design and layout. Elevation changes over the rolling hills, while long masonry stone walls outline a picturesque landscape. By far the biggest obstacle here is the wind, so be prepared to adjust your drives and putts. The fairways are mostly open and trees still come into play, as the course flow is balanced with uphill, downhill, long, and short holes.
Course Length:6521
Number of Holes:18

Zilean Build
Ability Sequence
Not Updated For Current Season
The masteries shown here are not yet updated for the current season, the guide author needs to set up the new masteries. As such, they will be different than the masteries you see in-game.
Welcome to my Zilean, the tic tac bomber build. This is my first build, I hope you will find it usefull. This build is for those who want to use Zilean, as full ap (ability power). Time Bomb use the 90% of Zilean ability and Chronoshift use the 200% as health.
Early Game (1-8) items
When I start a game, I take these items:
Then I upgrade them and I buy the 350g boots:
or if I have enough gold:
Mid Game (9-14) items
At this time, I raise Zilean ability power, so I upgrade and buy:
With these items Zilean doesnt need mana pots anymore and with the Rod of Ages I raise his life.
If I still have money, I buy these:
or (better) these:
Late Game (15-18) items
Finally, I raise the as much as I can his ability power with these:
So my items are:
There are many ways to farm with an AP Zilean.
[*] If there are enemies in front of you, you can make 1 or 2 of your minions "kamikaze" killing some of your oppenent minios and injuring the enemies' Champions.
[*] If there aren't any enemies in front of you, then place a Time Bomb at an oppenent minions, use Rewind and replace a Time Bomb at the same minion to detonate the first one.
Summoner's Spells
I recommend Clairvoyance and Flash
Clairvoyance: With this spell you can see a small area of the map which will reveal enemy's jungler or enemy's gang.
Flash: This spell is very usefull if your enemies try to gang you or in a fight the focus on you.
Other spells:
Heal: Zilean is a support champion so the enemies will focus on him, so this spell is important if you dont have any healer at your team
Ignite: With Ignite combined with Time Bomb you can take a kill at the start of the game for ap Zilean.
Clarity: Zilean with this item build will need mana only at the start of the game.
Spell Vampire is the worst move
Zilean doesn't need Spell Vampire because his only attack spell is Time Bomb, but it isn't a direct hit. So Zilean will not heal himself if he has spell vampire.
You can combine the use of Time Bomb and Rewind to place two Time Bombs on a target quickly. Placing the second bomb will detonate the first.
Time Warp is an effective way to enable allies to finish off enemies, or escape from a losing battle.
At mid game and late game, if you use Chronoshift you can use Rewind to reduce the cooldown.
You can use Time Bomb at your minions or even at your teammates and it will explode wirhout hurt them.

Her exact words to me today were: "I need to know how to shut the screen off on my xperia x10 during a call...sometimes it shuts off, sometimes it doesn't...when it doesn't, it causes me to perform a TON of unwanted tasks like adding a contact, changing the wallpaper, etc. when it hits my cheek." Thanks again!

Discussion in 'Gamers' Pulse' started by Mr J, Mar 15, 2010.
first day buy
I've only played the demo for the first one, but it seems fun. It's going to have to step up to deserve a spot next to Just Cause 2 though.
bout fucking time!!! been waiting for this since i first got my 360.
on the first one, i love on the soviets side, there is a huge bridge that comes out of a tunnel, if you put cars just right, the ones coming out of the tunnel hit them so fast they fly off the bridge, many times played online just for hilarity to ensue.
who knew jumping could be so fun
first one is still one of my favorite games. i hope they dont fuck with the formula at all.
Doesn't surprise me.
about time.
Isn't this one gonna have zombies and monsters and shit and it's not made by the same people. With these facts my expectations are low, but I'll probably get it, since I loved the hell out of Crackdown, one of the funnest games on the 360. Funner than GTA4 for sure.
I just found out about this when they did that video game awards thing on spike, had no fuckin idea they even planned a sequel and was pleasantly surprised.
this is what worries me. M$ took it over and realtime worlds went on to do APB. i know theres a group of the ex realtime world guys on this game, but i still have some concern
i LOVED the first one. i like zombies, but i hope the game still "plays" the same.
Crackdown was pretty good, however it is going to suck compared to Just Cause 2 and the already released Infamous.
motion to change name to Miss Cleo.
damn, im too funny
you got owned, go cry more
i got owned by what exactly..... you got real defensive cause i said 3 little words, there was no names mentioned in my 3 words but yet you took offense to it get mad more
and yet you were so mad that you had to try and troll in this thread when no one even gave you any attention.
you got owned, go cry more in the corner now.
u mad now
where did i troll retard, i posted that i liked the game and had concerns about the new developers..... some intense trolling. keep being mad
u mad, you keep posting to try and save face
just let it go, you opened your mouth, got owned, now youre backpedaling.
great logic as always. "shit, i mis read his posts and thought he was trolling but he wasnt, better fall back on the default u mad"
look at this backpedal, bwhahahaahah

Highlark.com had Conrad in for an interview when he recently was in Miami. He reveals what stuff will await us in 2016 and how a song develops from the first idea to the end. Thanks to Highlark!
Zimbio uploaded a photo stream of Conrad at various events on stage as well as some funny ones backstage.
as promised we added some new stuff. You find now the official videos filed under Media as well as highlights of the year(s) under Conrad. Also we speed up the performance of the site a bit.
Further we got a feedback that the videos of iheartradio are not working for the Firefox Browser. We also linked them now directly to their website.
A resume of the "Jingle Ball" events got along with some insights is now added to Conrads YouTube channel.
Also he had a chat with Radio 93.3 FL about his 3 biggest moments of the year. Can you guess them?
Further he did just mention on his Twitter that his EP will be released globally! in about two weeks. The best way to start the year!
See some photos and a short article about Conrads last Jingle Ball in Tampa, Florida, where he get´s very close with his Fans. Absolutely lovely!
Another intern information: We will use the upcoming quiet days to work a bit on the site and add new material for you step by step. It might happen that the performance will be a bit slower than usual while running the updates in the background. We hope you understand.
Here´s a medley of "Firestone" and "Start Again" Conrad performed at yesterday´s last Jingle Ball show in Tampa, Florida.
Also we have picked the winner of our birthday raffle: Conrats to Stefanie H., New Zealand. Your CD will be shipped within the next days. :)
Here are 3 stage photos of Conrad at the Jingle Ball at BBT Center, Florida yesterday. Credits and a huge thanks goes to: Getty Images for iHeart Radio. For more photos an content check out their website: http://www.y100.com/jingleball
Conrad sat down with Val and Michelle at the "Jingle Ball Lounge" for a chat about his black and white Instragram, that he sometimes get called Ma´am beside doing a hair flip contest. To see more content check out the website of y100.com (http://www.y100.com/jingleball)
I just found that really long interview with Conrad by auspop, which was done while his Aria nominations. He talks about why he changed his music style after his "sons of midnight" times, that we can 2016 expect a full album, why he values success in his home country a lot more nowadays and much more!
iheartradio stocked up their gallery with various photos on- and off stage of Conrad, as well as a gallery with meet & greets.
Beside that, sorry for the slow update, my Internet Connection is broke but should be fixed until tomorrow. :)
An interview back from last week with Kiis FM, in which he chats about caring about his voice and his wish to make it in the USA in 2016.
You can now listen to "Start Again", "Firestone", "Hold Me Up" and "Neighbourhood" exclusively performed for spotify. The versions are a bit different but it gives them a very special touch!
Also dailymail wrote a little article about Conrad but the focus is definitely set onto the HQ photos. Some of them are unseen yet.
Last but not least a little reminder that you still have the chance to take part on our raffle to win the "All I Know" EP. We ship world wide, so any country can participate! Just enter the subject "Birthday Raffle" to our contact form.
Kidnation had Conrad in for a fun interview about dancing NSync Style around the christmas tree, getting the spotlight at karaoke bars and the craving to get on stage as much as possible. Also he perfored "Hold Me Up", "Firestone" and "Start Again" in wonderful acousticversions. To make it perfect, you also find HQ photos of his studio time on the site.
Further he has been nominated for the "The 2 Annual Live Music Awards" in the categories "International live achievement – solo" and "Best live voice Australia". Both categories would be deserved to win so much!

Galaktoboureko, (pr. ga-lahk-to-BOO-reh-koh), also written Galaktomboureko or Galatoboureko, is possibly the king of sweets for many in Greece and the one I prefer the most. A fabulous semolina cream, rich and consistent, lies in the middle, between thin layers of crispy phyllo which are bathed in syrup.
It's one of my favourite desserts and if I didn't mind the calories, I could eat this for breakfast, lunch and dinner and not want anything else.
In Greece and Cyprus in the old years they used to say that you are not a worthy housewife if you didn't know how to make thin phyllo from scratch, but nowadays it's much easier to make galaktomboureko or other recipes using store bought phyllo, because it's much easier.
You can also make individual ones, wrapped in a roll.
Each phyllo is brushed with local ewes' and goat butter or in case you cannot find any, clarified butter can also be used. In the middle a semolina pudding flavoured with lemon is added. The remaining phyllos are layered on top and when the dessert is baked a sugar syrup is added on top.
In case you cannot find the fine semolina we use in Greece, the filling can be made with a pastry cream.
Preparation time: 45 minutes
Cooking time: 35 minutes
Serves: 12
- 200 grams clarified butter
- 6 phyllo sheets
- Water to sprinkle on top
Cream filling:
- 1 litre milk
- 4 eggs
- 130 grams (about ¾ cup sugar)
- 130 grams fine semolina
- ½ tsp vanilla or citrus essence or 1 packet (10 grams) lemon scented vanilla sugar
- 1 tbsp lemon zest
- 1 tbsp butter (optional)
- 1 ½ cups sugar
- 1 cup water
- 2 tbsp honey
- 1 stick cinnamon
- 3- 4 cloves
- 1 lemon peel
- 4 tbsp lemon juice
- Begin by preparing the syrup first as it has to be cold or at least lukewarm, when pouring it over the galaktoboureko when baked: Put the sugar, water, lemon peel and the spices in a saucepan. Bring to a boil and simmer for 5 minutes. Mix in lemon juice and remove from the heat.
- Clarify the butter.
- Prepare the filling: Heat the milk reserving about half a cup cold milk to add to mixture. In another pot add the semolina, the eggs, sugar and the cold milk and stir well with a balloon whisk. When the milk is hot pour to mixture stirring continuously. Put on the heat and mix constantly until cream sets. Add the butter and vanilla and stir. Set aside for a while to cool.
- Assembling the dessert: Grease a baking pan (25 x 17.5 cm – 10 x 7 inches) with butter. Layer four sheets of phyllo, brushing each one with butter and place them alternating from horizontally to vertically, part of it covering the sides of the baking tin. Add the cream and then start folding the protruding edges, one layer at a time, brushing them with butter. Brush the remaining two phyllos with butter and fold them in the middle. Add them on top and cut the protruding phyllos around the edge of the baking tin. Using the brush tuck the sides to go inside. Brush the last one with butter and score lightly until the knife reaches the level of the cream. Wet your hands with water and sprinkle a few drops on top. Repeat once more.
- To make the galaktoboureko into a roll, cut the phyllo sheets in the middle. Add the cream 4 – 6 cm below the edge and brush the phyllo with some butter. Fold one of the sides on top of the cream, then fold the other side and then fold the remaining to form a roll.
- Bake in a preheated oven to 170οC / 338oF for about 35 minutes for about 45 minutes (If baked in a fan-forced oven bake to 160oC/320oF) or until golden on top.
- Remove galaktoboureko from the oven and add the syrup gradually with a spoon to wet it. It may seem that the syrup is too much but it will soon be absorbed.
- Set aside to cool completely before serving.
Leftover, must be refrigerated
A similar recipe as well as many more Greek recipes are included in my cookbook Mint, Cinnamon & Blossom Water, Flavours of Cyprus, Kopiaste as well as in my e-cookbook Volume 2.
