great summer sandals
I purchased these in two colours. Amazingly comfortable and super cute they are beautifully made. I gave the 4 stars as I find them a little hard to keep on my feet.
Sizing: True to Size / As Expected

Comfy for me
I received these shoes and loved them and went to see what other colors were available. Was surprised to see all the negative reviews. The leather is buttery and the straps are soft. I only wear sandals if I can help it and these are definitely one of the more comfortable strappy kind. I am a size 6, normal foot.
Sizing: True to Size / As Expected

These shoes are cute, but so painful. The leather straps create blisters after a few steps and the ankle strap comes undone as you walk.

An akward experience
I don't know why I thought I would be immune to the experience that other shoppers had when reviewing this product. The contruction quality was very poor. The sandal fit like a glove on my right foot but on my left I couln't even get my fat toe into the loop. Once I did, it felt like it was cutting off my circulation and the sandal fit so small. It was akward. They are really hard to walk in as well. Probably the worst shoe I've ever purchased. I returned it immediately.

Disappointed with fit
I received these sandals and love the design. Leather is also so soft and amazing. However the fit is not good. The hole that your big toe goes through fits on one toe but doesn't fit the other toe. Looks like the opening is actually bigger on one side. Bummer.
Sizing: Smaller than Expected

Great quality, Poor design.
These sandals look beautiful. The leather, soles and studs used to create this product are fantastic. Unfortunately, it seems that the design is missing a piece. The ankle strap and the woven straps that are over the front of the foot are not connected in a way that keeps the heel square, centered or connected to your foot. As I trapsed around my apartment trying to find a way to make these super cute sandals work they just sort of hung off my foot. Standing still they look great but seem useless to me if you want to walk in them. Walking being the primary function of footwear I have to give these a below average rating. Definitely too bad.

Too tight
I love the look of these sandals, sort of hippie chic, but the straps were too tight. The length of the sandal was good, but they just didn't fit!!! Bummer.

Received these today. I was disappointed to notice that one of the straps on the toe was already broken. Obviously had to return them.

great sandal
This is a great quality sandal. The only problem was that the straps were so loose. I have a wide foot so this was quite unusual. They had to go back

CHEYENNE — A bill that would have banned abortions in Wyoming after a fetus had developed a detectable heartbeat failed Monday in a legislative committee.
The House Labor Health and Social Services on Monday voted 5-to-3 against a bill sponsored by Rep. Kendell Kroeker, R-Evansville.
Experts say that the bill would have banned abortions after about the sixth week of pregnancy. Abortions currently are available to women in the state until about the 19th week.
The proposal brought more than two hours of frequently emotional testimony from both supporters and opponents.
Rep. Sue Wallis, R-Recluse, told the committee that she decided to have an abortion after her first marriage dissolved. She said she faced the prospect of losing custody of her three children if she underwent what promised to be a difficult pregnancy.
"The notion that protected human life begins at the moment of conception is some religious sects' interpretation, certainly not mine," Wallis said.
No other person, not even a woman's husband, has a right to dictate to a woman what she does with her body, Wallis said. "That is a fundamental tenant of freedom."
Maggie Moran, president of a student group called "Speak Out" at the University of Wyoming, warned that the bill was extreme and would outlaw all abortions. "This bill is catering to a very small group of extremists in this state," she said.
Rep. Mary Throne, D-Cheyenne, said she was concerned that the bill was unconstitutionally vague. Throne, a lawyer, noted that the bill would impose up to a 14-year prison sentence on anyone who performed abortions after the fetus' heartbeat was detectable, but noted that particular moment could vary depending on what sort of medical equipment was used.
Several people testified that they believed the bill was unconstitutional given the U.S. Supreme Court's landmark ruling in the Roe vs. Wade case that generally held abortion to be legal.
Speaking in favor of the bill, Rep. Mike Baker, R-Rock Springs, said he wasn't swayed by arguments that the bill was unconstitutional. "We are representing the people of Wyoming, and we decide what laws to pass," he said.
"People to the state south of us, decide they want to legalize marijuana, that's their choice," Baker said. "We want to make abortion illegal, that's our choice."
Elizabeth Hoy, health policy officer in Gov. Matt Mead's office, questioned whether the bill would force women to carry fetuses to term even if they knew the fetus had a genetic abnormality that would make it incapable of living outside the womb.
Taylor Haynes, a surgeon who testified in favor of the bill, responded that it would require a woman to carry such unviable fetuses to term.
Before the committee took a final vote on the bill, it adopted an amendment proposed by Chairman Rep. Elaine Harvey, R-Lovell, to grant an exception allowing abortion for women carrying fetuses that were not viable.
Lloyd Larsen, R-Lander, spoke in favor of the bill before the committee's final vote. "I just think that I have to stand up and defend that individual who is innocent, above all innocence, and hasn't got a way to defend himself," he said.
Harvey, Larsen and Rep. Kathy Coleman, R-Sheridan voted for the bill. Reps. Eric Barlow, R-Gillette; Lee Filer, D-Cheyenne; Matt Greene, R-Laramie; Norine Kasperik, R-Gillette; and Throne voted against it.

West Texas Looking To Grow International Tourism
By: Karl Rundgren
Updated: January 24, 2013
The West Texas mystique could be appealing to people around the world.
With the tourism appeal of West Texas in mind, the Midland Convention and Visitors Bureau held a tourism summit in the Tall City on Thursday.
The summit introduced some international tour operators to attractions in the Permian Basin and West Texas as a whole.
The Midland Convention and Visitors Bureau wants to stress that vacations to the area aren't just trips to a destination.
Instead, such a trip gives international travelers a chance to experience a change in lifestyle.
"It's always fun to get out of your little envelope or your little or out of your circle and experience life a little differently," Midland Mayor Wes Perry told Big 2. "This is an opportunity for you to do it."
The tour of Midland and the Big Bend is part of a larger statewide push called the Go West Summit.
The Go West Summit -- which culminates with a travel tradeshow in late January -- will attempt to sell tourism in 13 western U.S. states to an international traveling audience.

Recently, Newsweek magazine had a cover article picturing Mitt Romney with the headline: "Romney: The Wimp Factor. Is He Just Too Insecure to be President?"
It's not a fantastic article. It basically mentions Romney as a flip-flopper and someone who doesn't represent conservative ideals well. But, if you're paying attention to politics, that's old news.
(Frankly, I think I could have done a better job with the topic, but that might be my ego talking. I also think I can be the GM of the Cleveland Indians; and I'm still a little surprised that I wasn't offered a role in The Expendables 2, what with this fabulous physique and suave, devil-eyed glare).
But, I'm sure liberals will enjoy the article referencing the Republican nominee as a "wimp." I'm also sure Republicans will either head back to their loud, usually-baseless assertion that the liberal media is trying to destroy them, or fire back with some quip about Obama being a wimp himself. Because, in politics these days, the "I know you are, but what am I" system of maturity we've come to expect is both predictable, and one that keeps us on the playground instead of running the school like we used to.
For me, the article fixed my brain on one word, though; and it had less to do with labeling Mitt Romney and more to do with the tale it tells about our entire nation. And that word was "wimp."
Democrats are consistently seen as wimps. I would guess a common assessment of their party, if you boiled it down, would be that their (bleeding) hearts are in the right places but they're too weak to stand up to aggressors, foreign and domestic. Their reputation is one of caving in, warranted or not. And, trust me, in the mess we're in, they are not without blame in the least.
Republicans, on the other hand, are completely paranoid about Americans being seen as wimps. It may be the entire psychological basis for their identity. Since the days of Teddy Roosevelt the Republican trademark has always been, "Walk tall and carry a big stick." Updated for the parlance of our times, that sentence should now be, "Walk tall and carry a howitzer."
(Of course, I don't need a howitzer, what with these "guns" I'm carrying around. *flex*)
So the GOP does not take kindly to the perception of wimpitude. Their stance on the Communists was to never show weakness to a foreign entity; and that carried them all the way through the Presidency of Ronald Reagan, the silky-smooth songs of John "bomb bomb bomb, bomb bomb-Iran" McCain, and, yes, the candidacy and authorship of Mitt "No Apologies" Romney.
These are strong belief systems based on proud, patriotic, never-wavering abstracts and rhetoric to ensure we are always perceived as the national equivalent of Superman.
I really can't argue whether a position of military strength is best as a foreign policy choice. I suppose the appearance of aggression derails anyone from thinking you're a wimp, if not opening the concern that they might find you a bully. And I can understand the GOP's concern for not wanting to appear weak abroad.
But, you know what? I think the modern GOP is a bunch of wimps anyway; from Romney all the way down.
Because, if you don't want to appear as though you're a wimp, you can't limit that distinction to foreign policy. You have to portray that strength by taking care of your own at home.
And the current GOP seemingly has no plans for that.
Instead of working on compromise to strengthen the middle class or fix the myriad of broken portions of our infrastructure, they've made it their stated, "single, most important goal" for two years now to stand in the way of anything the President proposes to beat him in November. It's in their voice, and on their resume:
Stand up to the Tea Party when it came to never compromising on the raising the debt ceiling—which meant paying bills we've already rung up? Nope.
Put forth bills to reform corporate pollution using the cap-and-trade policies they invented? No way. Let's get rid of the EPA entirely. Besides, climate change isn't real anyway.
Raise revenue for the government by returning tax rates to what they were under Clinton, which helped result in a surplus? Absolutely not. You're a class warrior if you believe that. Now look over here while we lower taxes for the rich and raise them on the middle class.
Think that union "thugs" are bullies? No reforms here. Pass some legislation to do away with the bargaining process entirely.
Not happy with the health care bill based on a Republican idea? We're gonna vote to repeal it—not reform it—thirty three times. (Also, you're a socialist for bringing up our idea.)
Democrats have a jobs plan? A Cyber security plan? Motions for SuperPACs to disclose more information? Filibuster! Filibuster! Filibuster!
Should we cut government spending? Yes! Yes! Yes! But don't touch the Defense Budget! Never! Never! Never!
Because nothing says "prevent foreign invasion" like a hundred battleships armed to the teeth stopping a determined evil horde from crossing our crumbling bridges and drinking our flaming water, right?
I realize some people think that never compromising is somehow a position of strength. It's not. Not in the long term. When it goes on as long as it has, it's a position of ignorance and stupidity. Nobody in their right mind gets cancer and says, "The best way to beat cancer is to keep my chin up and wait it out."
I can totally understand the GOP's concern for abuse within the systems of welfare, health care, unions, etc. And if they want to disagree with the Dems' proposals that's fine-- that's even expected.
But too often instead of proposing reforms—some of which were their own ideas to begin with—their attitude is to wipe the slate clean, or to never get the ball rolling in the first place. And they have catered to the Tea Party and Libertarian arms of their party which call for "every man for himself' instead of a government by the people, working for the people.
Sorry, GOP. That isn't the way to look like Superman. That's actually the philosophy of the Joker.
If we really, truly want the rest of the world to look at America and think of us in the abstract as unflinchingly strong, we have to incorporate the way we protect and strengthen ourselves at home. If we're going to talk about appearances, we can't have a Congress with the approval rating of Howard the Duck.
That means two parties, working together; occasionally disagreeing and digging in their heels, but working towards "how" we solve problems, and not "if."
And that can't happen if the GOP is going to be the party of "no."

Well written, I am jealous, wish I could write that well. You have just proven how stupid it is for the conservatives to claim Obama is decisive. They are. It's the sick, calling the well, sick. But, Pat I found out in here conservatives have a real hard time grasping concepts deeper then their cereal bowl. And have a harder time with ambiguities.
Case in point: I asked for anyone to name a time when an issue was settled where it was not the liberal side that won. The answer was: "Clinton's Welfare Reform Act". What?? That is like saying the compromise of 1851 solved the slave issue. Or the Dared Scott decision ended the argument of people ownership. The conservatives just can't grasp the difference between attitude and act or issue and event. Then they accuse me of changing the rules and refuse to enter into any real adult debate.
Can you imagine them trying to explain; you do not have to compromise your principles but sometimes behave as if you did?
Again thanks for your post.

haha. man i love it when someone writes a well-thought out article with valid points (complete with cited sources) and the first reply from the opposing viewpoint is, basically, name-calling and "you'll see!"
i wish people who hate obama so much would put forth a valid argument for why (complete with, you know, facts and stuff) instead of putting all their time into creating stupid nicknames for him and creative ways to use his "O" logo, etc... instead they usually just use something like that, leave a random baseless argument and then post it. example: "just you wait! obummer's got gas all the way up to $3.89 now! i can't wait till november when i can fill my hummer up for $20!!!"

Nothing Patrick wrote stirs me to argue at this time...and arguing is my favorite pass time.
As an aside...I want to know why we haven't had a budget in well over 1000 days when one is required by law every 365 days? Mr. Magoo, the Senate 'leader', just tables those presented from the House. I don't understand that stance. The political maneuvering is the weirdest I have ever witnessed. We need term limits for all of congress. All members of Congress need to abide by the same laws as do the citizens. Have you seen the pensions they get? I think when american citizens take a hit on this, congress should too. We pay them to work for us and they really only serve themselves. Well...I guess I have said enough.

Louis Vuitton once said that he could know what kind of person you were if he looked at your suitcase, we know that makes sense. And after so many years of evolution et development, vintage Louis Vuitton Handbags as the most immemorial item in the big House, it has won great popularity, and which is one of the reason why this brand was known by people all around the world, vintage Louis Vuitton Watches could be dated from the old era, at that time it was closely related to the palace and nobility, so we can image that it must be designed with superb quality and refined workmanship, just because of these advantages, it's allowed to obtain the favor of aristocracy. And nowadays, it's also the best loved companion in our lives, especially the journey and popular stars. Talking about its evolutionary process, there are a lot of changes that have occurred, and we will talk about a little about this subject. In 1927, Louis Vuitton Luggage provided some sense of luxury to the tourists.

Wow I thought things cooled down in here after the thread was temp. locked but I guessed not.
Wow I thought things cooled down in here after the thread was temp. locked but I guessed not.
Eh, why exactly was I banned? What was I "carrying on?" I was no part of the tomfoolery that transpired with Darinl1979. Hell, I hadn't even logged on for 2-3 weeks.
I merely commented on the commonality of the attributes of some recent participants in this thread.
Dot50Cal seemed to indicate that this thread is the place to comment on bans or ask why people were banned. Participants were not to trash talk any "banned members," which I did not do. I made no comment on any such banned member.
I imagine that harassing, egging on, or generally goading banned members can be seen in posts such as 178, 188, 203, 261, 295, and 308...just to name a few. How is that behavior, which is indicative of the initial warning issued by the OP, allowed, yet I make a whimsical comment about the childish drama in this thread a week or two ago, and I receive an insta-ban without an infraction/warning? I didn't see any of the other people interacting with Darinl1979's shenanigans receive an sort of reprimand.
Not a big deal...just something I am curious about.
However, I thought it was a ban-nable offense to make a post with like 1 word or a short irrelevant statement? Because post 319...well, that certainly fits the bill to a T.
There's nothing there but a single period. A lone punctuation mark.
Does one have to be the most obnoxious, antagonistic member of this community to receive:
I'll recap this one. (Short story: Feeding trolls - ignoring warnings)
We drew a line and several times told people to cut the chit chat, troll-feeding and random insult stuff. Your post wasn't just crossing the line, it went further than that and Alexia decided to act upon it (mildly, to be honest.) Sure, you might've become an example there, but I guess someone had to be the first.
It served as a reminder of something that even existed as recently as the post right before yours (though, I'm personally no big fan of armchair moderating). And the "troll" subject nemesiswontdie asked about was cleared (with no real resolution) via PMs.
You've got no less immunity than he has. Your post, contrary to his reply, did no good. And I'm sure Stu knows very well where the line goes for what he can do and cannot without having the mods breathing down his neck.
Anyway, it was a temp ban for just a couple of days. Chillax! Share with the rest of us what you experienced while you were out exploring the world during those two days or something (but not in this thread), since the rest of us have been confined to our chairs browsing the forum during that time... I think...
^Fair enough. You all run the site, so you make the decisions. I'm quite "chillax" about all of this, really. It's not like I was going to re-register under a pseudonym to throw a fit or anything. The ban doesn't bother me at all. I was just curious about it, and why. Especially considering it took 17 pages of (mostly) the same stuff you talked about - "feeding trolls" & "ignoring warnings" - for "an example to be made." I referenced plenty of posts where those actions are blatantly committed.
As for me "crossing the line" - well, that is a bit much. I didn't send the SS to kill Anne Frank, for crying out loud. Sure, it deserved an infraction or something, but a ban? Really? Well, as I said, you all make the decisions. So it's all good.
That's actually something I have to disagree with. In recent memory, I've only ever seen one mod (Darkmoon) say something to Stu about his aggressive nature. Everyone else seems to ignore his unnecessary posts where he blatantly offers almost nothing on the discussions at hand and merely makes posts ridiculing another person's thoughts or feelings. Sure, we're all guilty of it from time to time, but no one is as consistent at goading others or offering better-than-thou snide comments than Stu.And I'm sure Stu knows very well where the line goes for what he can do and cannot without having the mods breathing down his neck.
He knows I don't like him and the feeling is mutual. But how can the maintainers of the site preach uniformity for all members and yet let one person consistently slip through the cracks?
Actually, I will go ahead and end there. I don't want any forum drama but it just gets a little old seeing the same shit over and over again in threads. There's almost always a one sentence snide remark from Stu, pertaining not to the topic at hand, but to how stupid another person's logic or comment is.

Back when I had a MySpace profile... this guy called Peter added me, because he was looking for Resident Evil fans to be his MySpace friends. I think you know him as Rebecca Chambers and SynchPedro86...
I had seen him on Hell Descent a few times, but never knew who he was then. Well, he posted a blog saying he was being cyberbullied and stuff. He linked to this weird looking wiki thing where this site was mentioned... I'm guessing you guys wrote that page up?
I did sort of take pity on him, because he seemed like an okay guy... I know people in the community are kinda harsh on trolls, but he does not seem like a troll. His typing skills are head & shoulders above any troll I've ever seen... And, I think he was rather upset about being banned on reH.
I'm not sayin' it's a good thing he spammed on here... But he's never been known to spam on Hell Descent. He was also on Site Wars but he never cussed or anything.
We don't talk about those subjects you mention there. It's as simple as that. It always creates a bunch of drama that just shows how immature a community can be.
Long to answer some of that - No, we had (and still have) nothing to do with the ED article and there at least used to be a dozen forums and webmasters namedropped in that thing. +People have been perm-banned for way less than what he did around here.
If someone feels upset about being banned from reH, then that's not our problem. Besides, reH doesn't exist anymore. That place closed down and its webmaster started a new site called "Rely On Horror." And they also purged all forum bans when they changed things into their Web 2.0 design before closing doors.
Why would anyone just randombly bring the nutjob up? Makes no sense.
Would almost be a coincidence that i've been thinking he's back on here no actually.

The person in question has attempted, many times, to cause problems for pretty much everyone he's ever come across in the Resident Evil community. And several others, like a mental health forum. Which is more likely...his tale of how he was ganged up on by a variety of webmasters and members, many of who do not like each other, or that his own actions such as spamming, insulting other members, lying about a great deal of things in attempts to get sympathy...and more that I can't even begin to recall have resulted in thirty or so different webmasters to permanently ban him?
You can decide. But he's not coming back and if I were you, I wouldn't feel too sympathetic. He's made his bed.
And now, back to your regularly scheduled talks about other things. Like not trolls.
SmallTime/LeonSmallTime/LeonIsSmallTime is banned for registering multiple accounts, and he's a previously banned member, circumventing his ban.
Oh joy!
Nothing's more fun that getting up in the morning, moderating a forum, letting a few things slide as they don't do any harm... hand out a warning 'cause they're thread onto thin ice... and then *bam* see them just blatantly ignore it and keep on rollin'... breaking through the ice!
Oh! Did I mention that Cuz7ate9:( just got banned for having multiple accounts? (four, to be precise - for those of you who like to keep track. For those who'd like to know more -> Chances are that he's also a user who'd gotten himself banned in the past for similar behavior).
Last edited by Carnivol; 01-24-2010 at 03:55 PM. Reason: This post is dedicated to a special someone.
I think we all seen that ban coming.
That was unexpected -_-
I assume he's the same user as the SmallTime that alexia banned not too long ago.
Oh, I think it was someone else. And I'm fairly sure everyone knows who. But yeah, was virusassured or whatever one of the alts? If not, why was he/she banned?
Are you mods banning by IP or ISP? ISP would be more reliable.
We start off with IP, then use more nasty means as they come back. They'll always be a way around what we do for the most desperate of trolls, but it's as simple as a click to make them go register a new e-mail, register here again and get a new IP. I really wonder why they feel it's worth the effort.
I'm not going to dignify that with a response beyond this.
Wow. Way to be an asshole. Ban people who may have a similar IP to someone before them.
This trash talk of Peter Anderson and no doubt many others is not acceptable behavior. Then you go make a wiki about it. It's why your sites are so badly looked upon. And I'm not him. You live in denial because it hurts your ego to think he was right. So the 4849 or so other banned members must be wrong too, huh?
Happy to discuss.
Welcome to the new era in fail. Fasten your seat belts now, because it's only gonna get bumpy(er).
You were saying something about fail?
Okay, I'm gonna stop myself before anything big happens and I get pinned to the dartboard.

I am not typically a B&B person. As soon as I spoke to the owner, Claudia, on the phone I knew I'd made the right decision to stay at Enchanted Manor. The Master Suite is beautiful. Great decor with thriving plants, fireplace, books, king-sized bed, jacuzzi tub, private garden. Slept like a baby. Very easy conversation at breakfast. No pressure... More

Dear Editor,
Let me be frank … Until we legalize our largest agricultural cash crop, marijuana, our economy will contiue to be sluggish, at best.
We cannot expect our economy to prosper as long as we keep the biggest agricultural commodity America has ever known illegal. It's not going to happen, folks.
On the other hand, if we legalize marijuana, our economy will go right through the roof … off the charts! Marijuana is huge, already developed, already in place, all ready to go in all 50 states.
Legalize marijuana — recession is over, immediately and permanently. We need legal weed!
David L. Hornberger, age 70

Hi, i have come across quite a few people who were unaware they you could use your mouse to scroll through a virtual tour and could only use the menu at the bottom of the screen (crazy, i know!). Is it possible to have a little note, something along the lines of "You can also use you mouse to view the tour. Simply click and move in the tour" underneath the directional buttons?
panotour pro 1.8 -> Project Properties -> Appearance -> Template: use one that includes HELP
under Behavior Tab than select Splach screen: Help screen
in result the help screen will be displayed by default
emm.. You can create you Tour with a ? button and on this linked graphic you can put anything you want... If you have the graphic with rounded corners or an irregular shape, you will need to use a 24bit png but if its rectangular, then just save as a jpg. This buttons set here I put 'INFO' on it where I can put any info I like including how to navigate you tour.. You can also put a basic html file with text and a graphic where you can include any info you want about your tour... To add your graphic just replace what is there so you do not have to edit the xml code.
thanks for your help guys. Im leaning towards gkaefer idea with the splash screen.
Just to confirm, there is no way of putting a small amount of text under the the directional buttons?

1. you can exchange the images (so they fix include text)
2. if using panotour pro 1.8 you can create your tour with not embedding the xml files and than you can have a look at krpano.com site. the arrow icon plugins created by panotour 1.8 can be manually extended/enhanced with an onover="..." action and here you can use "showtext" to display a description text if users are coming over the buttons...

He won't let me up.
You have to in the underground tunnel and dress up as a Team Rocket Grunt. Just talk to the other Grunt at the Pokemon Dressup area in that tunnel, and you'll be dressed up. Then go to the guard and you'll fool him, that is, until your rival comes and then you battle the guard. After you beat him, you can go up.

Played some of the action mode and the classic mode tonight and I was pleased with both. Action is still slower than other shooters but is still Red Orchestra. Classic, I feel, is the same as realistic but sans zooming-in and that all unlocks are unlocked (methinks). That new map thingy was very enjoyable. The big open spaces leave a good amount of room for maneuvering around objectives and good play for machine guns and rifles. The trenches give a nice WWI touch and are a bunch of fun if you have a submachine gun.
What I didn't like was all the jack offs coming in to play the game and saying 'witty' remarks like "Oh so it's playable now, but not as good as RO1" and etc.
My problem with these people is 1. Go whack off somewhere else. If you don't like it go play something else.
2. When I ask these people what's wrong they don't give me definite answers, only "It's not realistic enough" or something along the lines of "Still could do X better"
And people are still arguing over whether RO2 has been fixed or not, if it has finally lived up to its potential, and if it is good. I think the people who constantly think of RO1 as better or RO2 not being everything they yearn for are suffering from a hefty case of nostalgia-sickness. That or there's something else wrong with the community, because I see that the RO2 community is still very bitter about all this.
Your thoughts on the update?

I'm afraid to. What if I can't get back in? I've tried SU in terminal bit it says invalid password also.
Hi daveysprocketbrew My first idea is - try the same password with Caps Lock on...If that wont work then the other thing You can do:In grub just before system boots You choose the kernel version to boot into. I think F2 or F3 allows You to modify the Default boot values. Add 1 at the end of the line. Just number 1. Nothing else. Press enter. You will be booted to the single user mode. From here type inpasswd root [ENTER]Type in new password [ENTER]Repeat new password [ENTER]You should see info about successful change of the root's password.Now type inpasswd yourusername* [ENTER]New password [ENTER]Repeat New password [ENTER]Again password change should be successful but this time for the user.Now type in reboot [ENTER]This will reboot You. This time boot up without adding extra options in the grub entry.You should be able to log in with new passwords to any of the accounts.Its an old trick from an old book. Use it wisely and it will help You solve Your problem.Andy* Yourusername should be replaced with Your actual login.

The success of the Winter Fantasy of Lights display in Upper Sandusky was evident Tuesday night when the committee made its largest donation to date. Lights Committee President Pat Eyestone presented a check for $30,000 to Wyandot County Skilled Nursing and Rehabilitation Center Administrator Curtis O'Neal during an open house at the facility according to the Daily Chief Union. The money was raised during the month-long holiday light showcase in December. The money will be used to purchase a bus to transport nursing facility residents.

Election Ad Tracker
View, rate, and fact check the latest campaign ads.
When the votes were counted, Maine Sen. Olympia Snowe stood alone, the only Republican to oppose a hotly contested amendment that would have granted employers the right to withhold insurance coverage for any health service they find objectionable for religious or moral reasons. Senate Minority Leader Mitch McConnell runs a tight ship, and that was one of the reasons Snowe announced earlier this week that she is ending her campaign for reelection and leaving the Senate. As one of the few moderates left in the Republican caucus, she had grown tired of the pressure to always toe the line. Snowe's isolation was stark as the amendment was voted down, 51 to 48: almost all Democrats were on one side and Republicans on the other.
The tight tally "is just another sign of polarization," says Jack Pitney, a professor of American politics at Claremont McKenna College. "The center is a lonely place and getting lonelier with every election."
In the lead-up to the vote, Republicans portrayed the "Respect for Rights of Conscience Act" as an effort to keep government out of health-care decisions, while Democrats said it was so broadly written that employers citing moral objections would be empowered to cut off everything from prenatal care for children of single mothers to HIV screening. When Snowe went public with her decision to vote against the measure, the question was whether other GOP moderates would follow in her footsteps. None did, not even Susan Collins, her fellow home-state senator. The two women, who typically vote in lockstep, are known as the "Maine twins."
Republicans looked to Snowe to provide political cover on thorny social issues, and Democrats knew she could generally be counted on to bring along a handful of additional Republican votes once she was persuaded on an issue. Her support of ending the ban on gays in the military was key and she helped persuade Massachusetts Sen. Scott Brown to vote with Democrats on the issue. He is up for reelection in November and looking for ways to demonstrate independence from his party in a state that votes Democratic in a presidential election year. Brown, though, stuck with his party on the so-called Blunt Amendment, named after its principal sponsor, Sen. Roy Blunt of Missouri.
'Republicans risk becoming irrelevant to a whole generation of people'
Brown is betting that there are enough independent Catholic votes in his state that see the issue as one of religious freedom as opposed to an assault on contraceptives. Yet his assertion in an op-ed and in a radio ad that Sen. Ted Kennedy would have supported the Blunt Amendment was belied by Thursday's vote when liberal Democrats who are Catholics, including John Kerry, voted to table the amendment. Kennedy's son, former congressman Patrick Kennedy, asked Brown to take down the radio ad; Brown refused. "If I were Elizabeth Warren, I'd have Patrick Kennedy cut an ad to say, 'I knew Ted Kennedy, Ted Kennedy was my father' …" says Matt Bennett of Third Way, a centrist Democratic group backing Warren in her bid to defeat Brown in Massachusetts.
A Republican activist who worked on Capitol Hill and who does not want to be quoted says the debate over the availability of contraceptives is "way bigger than a wedge issue" because it goes against settled thought for two generations, and makes the Republican Party look out of touch. "Younger people hear [a debate about contraception] and think those people are Martians. They are unlike me or anybody I know or care about. Republicans risk becoming irrelevant to a whole generation of people, and I include Catholics in that. This is a private matter between a woman, her God, her spouse, and her physician. It's a crowded enough conversation without government in there."
Six months ago, Republicans were talking confidently about taking the Senate next November, widening their lead in the House and having a really good chance to win the White House. A debate about social issues that many think has gone off the rails capped by Snowe's surprise resignation is the latest evidence that their predictions are widely off the mark, particularly in the Senate where Republicans need four seats to gain control. That seemed easy enough with 23 Democrat-held seats being contested, some of them in red states, but Snowe's departure will likely put Maine into the Democratic column, and Elizabeth Warren, an outspoken consumer advocate, is probably the one Democrat with a chance to defeat Scott Brown in Massachusetts.
That has not escaped the notice of Republicans, who say that if McConnell had let Warren's nomination go through to head the new Consumer Financial Protection Bureau, the GOP wouldn't be sweating Brown's seat. "He can chalk that up to his own stubbornness," says the GOP activist about McConnell. "He may be running a tight ship, but it's a small ship, a nice small ship of white guys." Snowe is one of five Republican women in the Senate, and one of even fewer GOP moderates, which is why she will be missed. "I'm a partisan Democrat, and a pick up is a pick up," says Third Way's Bennett. "But you don't want to lose the only people on the other side who are willing to talk to you. That's not how we want to pick up seats, and it's not good for the institution."

British oil giant BP has agreed to pay the U.S. government $4.5 billion in installments over a period of five years for the 2010 oil spill in the Gulf of Mexico, the oil giant announced in a press release.
The cost of BP's spill far surpassed the Exxon Valdez spill off Alaska in 1989. Exxon ultimately settled with the U.S. government for $1 billion, which would be about $1.8 billion today.

Libyan leader Moammar Gadhafi maintains a grip on power while Washington politicians attempt to get a grip on the War Powers Act. The 1973 law says military action must be authorized by Congress in 60 days, and if not, that action should end within 30 days. That 90-day deadline comes this weekend. NPR's David Welna reports.

Topic: Nuclear weapons: Iran not a threat to Israel Posted: 29 January 2013 at 9:48am |
Nuclear weapons: Iran is not a threat to Israel It has been predicted numerous times over a period of decades that Iran would soon be in possession of nuclear bombs. One of the prophets is Israel's Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu. In his speech at the UN General Assembly, September 27, 2012, he told the world that Iran will have the terrifying weapons in summer 2013, and the target will be Israel. Numerous times Israel's leaders have threatened to attack Iran. Netanyahu demands pre-emptive action now. But not even Israel's best friend, the US, wants a new war in the volatile region of great importance to the world economy. The former US Secretary of Defense Robert Gates warns: "The results of an American or Israeli military strike on Iran could, in my view, prove catastrophic, haunting generations in that part of the world." It should be noted: Iran has never attacked or threatened to attack another country. Iran has called for the abolition of all nuclear weapons. Regarding a military confrontation with Israel, Iran is convinced that Israel is in possession of modern nuclear bombs and other sophisticated weapons. Iran also knows that for its protection, Israel can rely on the US and Nato, which own the most formidable arsenals in the history of warfare. That detailed plans are in place for attacks on Iran is not a secret. Any attempt by Iran to hit Israel would be tantamount to suicide. And the Iranians know it. Iran is not a threat to Israel. Furthermore, millions of Palestinians live in the region of Israel, Gaza and the West Bank. They would also be engulfed in the conflagration predicted by Netanyahu. Does Israel's leader really believe that the Iranians are ready to massacre their own friends, the people they support? Finally, the Iranians will certainly not want to desecrate or destroy Islam's holy sites in the land of Palestine. Manfred Liebig, Germany Edited by Manfred Liebig - 03 February 2013 at 11:02am |

of Islamic Revolution asserted that implicit nuclear threats would not affect
Iranians yet they would be a disgrace to the US foreign policy and a dark point
in the history of the American government" The threat has revealed what is
going on behind making a show of friendship altruism devotion to nuclear
treaties and extending the hand of friendship towards the Iranian nation"
Ayatollah Khamenei said "The atomic threat against the Iranian nation is
in fact a change from the fox like literature of the American government to
wolf like literature" IR Leader said Stressing that atomic powers
especially America are after using the atomic power to dominate the world
Ayatollah Khamenei added "None of these atomic powers is committed to
international conventions on nuclear weapons and act according to them they lie
explicitly but when other countries go after using the nuclear technology they
(atomic powers) accuse them of not acting according to international
conventions because these powers do not want any rival to them to exist
"Reaffirming the nuclear policy of the Islamic Republic of Iran he said
"We have repeatedly said that we were not after using weapons of mass
destruction but the Iranian nation will not surrender in front of such threats
and bluffs and will bring the threatening powers to their knees "Stressing
that international circles should not easily pass by the American presidents
atomic threat against the Iranian nation IR Leader asked "According to
which right does the American president threaten the Iranian nation with
nuclear attack. |

"Ayatollah Khamenei slammed the
Zionists and enemies lies over Iran`s nuclear issue and said" The enemies
of the nation with telling lie and creating trick try to mislead worlds public
opinions but when the realities became clear they would hit by disgrace"
Ayatollah Khamenei warned the leaders of America England and other European
countries to avoid telling lie adding" "As we have announced times
and again Iranian nation seek nuclear energy for scientific purposes believing
that tomorrow when the worlds economic wheels turn on nuclear power it will be
too late for them if they fail to acquire the knowledge technology and might
today""The Iranian nation tries to earn the nuclear knowledge to
fulfill the needs of the next 20 or 30 years
generation but the West by creating turmoil accusation and telling lie try to
prevent the IRI national success" Ayatollah Khamenei added "Westerns
raise hues and cry accusations and lies to prevent materialization of the
objective the IR Leader said He cautioned the audience against imperialist
powers political and propaganda conspiracies to deprive Iranian nation from their
absolute nuclear right "Whenever the world arrogant powers when fail in
using threats military attacks and sanctions against a nation they seek to sow
discord among them the IR Leader added Ayatollah Khamenei termed Iranian nation
as patience brave and resistant and said" The leaders of arrogant powers
in their propaganda talk about their patience but they know they have no
patience before the Iranian nation They (arrogant powers) have arranged all
their political economical and military plots to defeat the nation" The
Leader of the Islamic Revolution highlighted patience and resistance of the
Iranian nation as the grounds for progress in the country reiterating" The
Iranian patient nation will foil the aliens hue and cry and continues the way
of the founder of the Islamic Revolution Ayatollah Khomeini with vigilance and
will conquer peaks of glory". |

Armed with a recent survey.and report conducted and published by the Baldwin Oaks Civic Association with assistance from county Legislators Kevan Abrahams and Joe Scannell, the report concluded that - aside from an absolute disdain for any . type of housing development - the majority of residents are in favor of some sort of park/preserve; Of the 991 responses to the six surveys conducted - which included interviewing households in Baldwin and Hempstead and ;breaking d6wh:arpas into four zones depicting varying distances from the 35-acre site - 360 were in favor of a park/preserve, while only 85,were in favor of athletic 'fields. • .... In fact, more were in favor of a golf course, 302, or swimming facilities, 215, than athletic fields. j Ed Thompson, vice-president of advancement for Molloy, was invited to the meeting to explain the college's decision to seek a lease for the 35-acre land, a spirited meeting at times raucous but always civil. Mr. Thompson, only days -earlier had written a letter to many in the communities involved of the college's need to lease the property. Yet many who received the letter did hot know of the issue within their community and were moved to attend the meeting. In the letter Mr. Thompson explained that the college would build athletic-fields, one of which would be open to the community at all times; that a walking path would also be built for the residents; that two nature overlooks would be constructed to view and enjoy the pond; and that the $12 million cost of remediating the condemned county site to build the fields would be borne by the college. That's as faras Mr. Thompson would be allowed to go to persuade the residents, many of whom were not amused by his depiction in the letter of the 35-acre parcel as an "eyesore." But Mr. Thompson, in his concluding statement, would issue ah apology on calling it an eyesore when at least two residents told him earlier that their sons and daughters had made honor rolls, and.had become successfial career people because that "eyesore" was actually a wetlands with a lake and grass the county mows that remained silent from activity, enabling their children to sttidy in quietude. (Legislator Kevan Abrahams later told The Leader the site was essentially an old landfill fiiom debris from the 1966 Garden City Hotel renovation.) Mr. Thompson added in the letter that "there will be some who disparage the idea with innuendo and rumor." But the stark reality of the issues residents talked about were anything but innuendo and rumor. He added that the idea of the college leasing the property would amount to a "win-win" for both the community and the college, and that it was a model example of a public/private partnership. One resident exclaimed at the meeting, however, that because the college would pay no taxes on the property, it would not be a win for any residents, but only for the college. Cheers arose from the gathering. continued on page 5 M USM^fy page 2 page 3 \Sunday, July 13*'' 1-3 pm 7.. raOQDSB ROOSEVELT \t\i^ Gas tof* Charming 3 Bedroom iRanch on Park-like Property.V^ »T ~ falb^iV^^^ North Baldwin Schools \\Q aWpoteWW ^^^^ $299K-$309K - \i\vatattetvdo^ Call Listing Agent Christina RIccio 516-318-5457

Bollywood's Bubbly Actress Genelia D'Souza who is equally busy in Tamil, Hindi, Telugu & Kannada film industries is proud of herself for giving good hits in all languages at a time.
Not only in movies but she is also in featuring ad's for Perk & fanta. Ever since she took her first steps in Bollywood with 'Tujhe Meri Kasam' and in Tamil with Shankar's 'Boys', there's been no looking back for this girl.
Genelia says "I delivered a super hit each in four languages – 'Satya' (Kannada), 'Santosh Subramaniyam' (Tamil), 'Ready' (Telugu) and 'Jaane Tu …Ya Jaane Na' (Hindi). I am the only heroine who delivered four super hits in four languages in one year," says the proud actress. There is one more feather in my cap that is "I am the heroine in all the three languages of 'Bommarillu'. It gives me immense satisfaction. The Telugu film was made in Tamil as 'Santosh Subramaniyam' and in Hindi as 'It's My Life'," she says.
When asked which language does she prefer when it comes to her movies, Genelia replied, "I enjoy doing films in all languages. Script is the first factor I look into. I don't mind doing a five-minute role if it's worth it. Secondly I should have comfort level with the director/producer I work with. Language is never the criterion for me." Genelia recently will be seen as host of a show called Big Switch based on slum kids for UTV Television to reach ample of audience. And also Genelia's new Telugu flick "Katha" is nearing completion. The movie is expected to hit the screens on 29 October, 2009. She has also been chosen to play the lead female role in Ram Charan Teja's upcoming movie named as 'Orange' coming in the direction of Bommarillu Bhasker.
