I was looking for a pen drive that is tiny, sturdy and fast. This pendrive is very small and make no mistake, you might end up misplacing this one very easily. It comes with a metal jacket that makes is sturdy enough.
But the plastic cap does not fully close this pendrive. Though tiny, this pendrive does come with an LED activity indicator which is good.
When plugged into laptop USB slot, this pendrive does not protrude like most other pendrives which is nice.
However, the only problem with this pen drive is its write speed. I have bought 2 of these pendrives and the write speed on both of them does not go beyond 5 MB/second. In my opinion, this is slower than other pendrives that I own (HP 220w for instance).
The pendrive does not get hot on long usage (unlike other pendrives though).
This is the sleekest/tiniest pendrive that I have seen. The build quality, sturdiness and other features do not disappoint.
Couldn't resist buying this product after seeing the size. Wanted one for the my i20. Works great in the car. (The audio quality is much better than bluetooth streaming on iPhone 4. You will not even see the drive in the car. - Not relevant here but for those who will find this helpful. )
This is so much better than other flat head tiny pendrives. The head has a nice curvy design.
Love the tiny led inside that shows the read/write status. Also has a decent read/write speed. Copying 3.78GB took me 7mins (450 Songs).
Kudos flipcart on delivery - Less than 24hours (Bangalore City).
Now just have to ensure I don't loose the pendrive.
One of the smallest pendrives in da world for sure and coming from a brand like SanDisk it feels gr8 to own it.Size is same as a 50 Paise coin.
-Small size
-Sturdy build
-LED activity indicator
-Attractive curvy looks
-Matt finish bottom to resist scratches
-Decent write speed considering its speed (4 Mb/s)
-Read speed is amazing
-Cap does not close the drive completely
-Write speed could have been better
-A Lan yard should have been provided
Good pendrive if u own a laptop/netbook as it doesn't protrude and if u don't do the transfer work when r in a hurry.
I was using Kingston Pen Drive which was some 4 cm long. It was broken when i had mistakenly put it in the bag without disconnecting it from the laptop.
This time I thought of buying the pen drive which is as small as it can be. I logged to flipkart to try the Price of HP Pen Drive but saw this one and bought it.
Here are the doubts i would like to clear:
. The File Access speed of the pendrive is good or even better
. Easily detetable and installs automatically
. perfect for car audio as well as friends will keep guessing where the USB is
. can be stored in a wallet also
. has a option to put the tag is required.
Well, I wanted a pendrive exclusively for my car stereo. Requirements were clear- it should be small and should blend with the music player. I found this tiny baby here and it was the perfect one for me. It almost flush mounts on the player, color exactly matches the player and speed is not at all bad. There is a small red LED inside which blinks while operating. Also, there is a tiny(but serves the purpose) metal loop to which u can attach a tag if you have chances of misplacing it.
I've read others here telling that it is little slow. But I was able to copy a 3GB folder with around 50 subfolders in 9 mintues. I could copy it back to pc within half of that time. I dont think thats slow at all for a pendrive. U put files for copying, go for a break, come back and its done! Of course how many time in a month am I going to do that for updating music? I have been using sandisk cruzer blade as well from sandisk and it has the same speed. Around 5/10 MBps write/read. I was also not going to use it daily for carrying files. Hence this was the perfect little storage for the car.
If you want to use it for daily usage, removing and inserting this in your pc port might not be comfortable as plucking it from the port requires some care. Get another pendrive for that purpose. Also, finding it in a bag is not easy at all unless you have the tag attached.
Surely it's a VFM(value for money) device from sandisk, for my kind of requirement, I'd certainly say Go For It!

SPRINGFIELD, Mo. -- A lawsuit over a water balloon may sound silly but a Missouri State University student says her injuries are real. She's suing a campus fraternity for using a slingshot to fire water balloons, one of which hit her in the face and caused permanent damage to her eye.
In fall 2011, three guys in the Phi Delta Theta house used what's called a high-powered balloon launcher to fire on women at the Delta Zeta house next door. They were asked to stop but a lawsuit claims they didn't and the consequences were grave.
Maybe it was meant to be funny; guys who post their videos to YouTube certainly think it's funny. But the welt left by a water balloon fired at close range using a high-powered slingshot launcher in one of the videos is pretty serious. The guy was okay, or so it appears.
There's a long list of others who are not okay, including Emma Rapp. Rapp sued Phi Delta Theta for a host of eye injuries.
"If there's enough force, it can certainly be a vision threatening thing," said Chris Boschen, an optometrist at Sunshine Eye Clinic.
We showed the damage to Boschen that Rapp claims she got from a water balloon fired from the fraternity. He's not familiar with this case, but he is familiar with Rapp's conditions.
Hemorrhaging "is the bleeding inside the eye," he said. Herniation is when "you just have fatty tissue that's supposed to be posterior to the eye and herniates ,and can be seen more anterior than it should be." Iridodialys "is when the iris or the colored part of the eye loses part of its connection to the inside of the eye." Mydriasis "would be a pupil that doesn't restrict properly or it's dilated."
Others have made similar injury claims in court due to the same launcher, and even the manufacturer of the product itself warns users of its danger. It has a label that says it can cause eye and facial trauma and should not be aimed at people.
According to information we found online and court documents, these launchers are purported to fire objects between 50 and 75 miles per hour, and, according to Boschen, often times speed can be the biggest factor when it comes to eye injuries. So we decided to use our radar gun and put the thing to the test.
Our balloons, shot against an exterior wall, topped out at 94 miles per hour.
"If an object is moving fast enough, the weight of it isn't likely to be of much consequence," said Boschen.
Rapp's suit includes negligence on the part of the fraternity. And, just like that, there's nothing funny about those YouTube videos anymore.
Rapp said she did not want to comment on the lawsuit. Her attorney did not return a reporter's repeated calls since late last week.
The Phi Delta Theta International Fraternity issued this statement from its headquarters in Oxford, Ohio. Here's part of it: "While we share in the concern for Ms. Rapp and her well-being, Phi Delta Theta has not yet been served with the lawsuit."
Rapp's attorney told the MSU student newspaper that his client did not want to file suit but the fraternity's insurance carrier refused to cover her medical expenses so she was forced to do so.

So if the name Kony means nothing to you I suggest you firstly:
A) relocate yourself from under that quaint little rock u'v been living under and
B) watch the attached Youtube clip below before reading this article…
So ever since this clip became a viral sensation last Tuesday night the internet and media have been alight with debate and discussion over not only the organizations credentials but its aims. There have been a plethora of replies criticisms and backlashes over the whole campaign. So I thought it best to maybe put all this in perspective and answer some of the criticisms. Bearing in mind that this article won't necessarily vouch for the organization itself but focus on the impact the organization has made.
Firstly let's get one thing straight, this campaign has already achieved one of its aims. That is it has made KONY a 'celebrity' and pushed this reclusive figure and oft forgotten warlord onto the world stage and subsequently onto the radar of the mainstream media. Whether we like it or not, and whether you agree with the campaigns aims or not, the fact people are talking about Kony is a PLUS because it means that he isn't confined to international purgatory and is subsequently no longer 'out of sight and out of mind'.
By the force of people sharing this clip some people have conversely started thinking deeper about this issue and have flung open the debate on this topic. I think that's a positive in itself because it is only through an open and healthy debate that issues can be resolved. Ironically, some of the campaigns harshest critics wouldn't have had the platform they have now to discuss their views on this issue if it wasn't for the video they so loudly denounce.
Another major complaint about the video is that the people who are tweeting, sharing and spreading the word about this campaign are meerily 'jumping' on a bandwagon engaging no critical thought on the debate and are merely acting as mindless sheep. To this I say, yes, but so what? I'd rather have these drones tweeting and talking about Kony then sharing their qualms over which celebrity is dating who and what Justin Beiber has decided to do with his hair. Because at the end of the day the blather of these sheep does help in amplyfing the issue to the ears of people who do genuinely care. Also, I am not one to belittle any sense of educational knowledge of Kony and his atrocities being imparted on this generation no matter how basic this knowledge is.
Another issue which links to this issue of the people who are spreading this campaign being seemingly 'under-educated' would be some of the posts I have come across which condescendingly state; 'I'll listen to you about Kony if you sow me where Uganda is on a map'
Now excuse me if I am wrong, but just because someone is not a walking talking geography book doesn't mean they lack the means to empathize and care about an issue. That isn't to say I don't encourage them to find out more about Uganda just that these type of posts don't really prove much of a point. Empathy isn't tied up with a knowledge of the world's borders. There are hundred's of countries around the world and in every country there is bound to be some form of injustice occurring no matter how big or small. Plus since we are talking about peoples geographic knowledge, why not take this thought process a step further and demand people know the city locations of some areas that are being attacked i.e. How many people know where Homs or Baba Amar are located in Syria?
Another thing that has grinded my gears is this talk about the linking up of the Kony campaign to the U.S's hegemonic interests. Firstly, let's get one thing straight, it wasn't the government who initiated this campaign, it's a campaign which has been in the making for 9 years and has been largely ignored by the government for these 9 years. So it isn't simply an overnight phenomonan but a project which was years in the making. Secondly, the U.S won't invade Uganda over Kony, it has no reason to. This is because as the campaign itself points out on its website and in the video, the conflict has moved on from Uganda to other areas in Africa. So Kony is no longer at large in Uganda, though of course the aftermath of his presence in the country can still be felt.
Thirdly, people need to differentiate between 'military advisors' and 'combat troops'. These 100 of military advisers in Uganda aren't G.I. Joe and aren't waging an 'Expandables' type war on the nations grounds. All they are doing is simply advising the Ugandan military on how to best capture Kony. Which in my regards, is fairly docile. Plus, people need to wake up, there are a plethora of American military bases stationed around the world which do similar things which no one is kicking up a fuss about. It's just that people always like to think in conspiracy terms when it comes to dealing with these global issues, its all about being 'hipster' and sticking it to the powers that be. Its more exciting to think of the world as a Hollywood production stage and that every issue has clearly delineated bad and good guys with an intricate plot to unravel.
Yes Uganda has oil, and the military advisors in Uganda have not been sent there because the U.S. has suddenly seen the light and is determined to make sure justice is carried out. At the end of the day, as the clip itself briefly mentions, the U.S. largely ignored Uganda's plight because it wasn't in their foreign policy interests to intervene. In other words, the U.S had nothing to gain from helping Uganda. So what gives? Why the sudden change of heart? The sending of troops and assistance of sorts are tried and tested mechanism the U.S and other foreign countries have used before which help in building diplomatic links with countries. We for example, send you troops to advise your military as a sign of 'good will' and we will surely be rewarded with some oil will.
The last thing I want to comment on is something that I truly find disheartening. This issue revolves around the incessant need to compete between different casues. i.e. between massacres as in x, y, z amount of people have died in this conflict and everyone is campaigning about Kony killing x,y, z amount of people. This is the COMPLETE wrong attitude, you may be a Syrian for example but you could just have easily been born a Ugandan. You can't call yourself a humanitarian if you close your heart off to the rest of humanity. ANY life lost no matter where is a life to many and every injustice deserves to be heard. But in trying to raise awareness of an injustice don't trample on other people's pain or belittle their cause to gain some ground. Because at the end of the day it's NOT a competition.
Don't let your ethnicity limit your humanism.

Thunderstorms, some strong, Tuesday afternoon through Tuesday evening; storms can be severe
Severe thunderstorms continue to push from the Plains to the Midwest with dangerous tornados continuing.
Severe thunderstorms continue to bring large hail, damaging winds, and tornadoes to the Plains and Midwest. Andrew Baglini has the details.
Recent severe storms left Georgia residents with a lot of cleaning up to do and limited by flooding waters.
Heavy rain delayed flights, flooded roads, and drenched Morehouse graduates in Atlanta Sunday
After Saturday's severe thunderstorms that brought hail and gusty winds across Oklahoma City, the threat remains through Sunday night.
Showers and thunderstorms will be possible at Oriole Park and U.S. Cellular Field.
Severe weather moved through the Plains Saturday. Tornadoes were reported in Kansas.
The 2013 severe weather season took a dangerous jump on Wednesday when an EF-4 tornado ripped through the town of Granbury, Texas, just southwest of Fort Worth.
Folklore says that if you count the amount of chirps a cricket makes, you can calculate the current temperature. Does this hold any truth?

Retailing from $375 to $425, the collection features a black pony hair pump with magenta trim from Robb, a buckled bootie with metallic cap-toe from Decker, a textured black pump with burgundy platform and ankle strap from Reed, a patent leather lace-up bootie from Hough, and my favourite of the group, a tan and navy animal-print embossed brogue from Moretz.
The Young Hollywood Cares collection will be available at Stuart Weitzman flagship stores in New York, Beverly Hills and Boston, as well as online at stuartweitzman.com, starting next week. I think I need those incredible Weitzman x Moretz brogues in my life, and the fact that the purchase will benefit a good cause is like the bow on my shoe box.

How is exposure to radon linked to lung cancer?
Taine Pechet, MD, Thoracic Surgeon at Penn Medicine, responds:
Radon is the 2nd leading cause of lung cancer in the United States according to the Surgeon General's report, distantly following tobacco exposure. Radon is a colorless and odorless gas that results from the breakdown of Uranium in the soil. Radioactive particles from this radon gas can damage cells that line the lungs and lead to lung cancer. Different areas of the country have different amounts of radon that is naturally produced, but the type of foundation in your home is also important, since some foundations are better ventilated. Radon can be detected using a detection kit available in most hardware stores. If the level is elevated, the radon can be vented by having a pipe and a fan system installed. Many areas have laws requiring radon to be checked before a house can be sold. Learn more about radon and cancer risk on OncoLink.

Hateful columnist brags about being an ass to Costco employees
11/19/2012Most of us aren't proud of being a jerkface, but most of us aren't Adam Probolsky. The Orange County columnist proudly acts like a douche when he goes to Costco, refusing to flash his membership card at the entrance and not showing his receipt when he leaves, mocking the "good little sheep" who, you know, don't hassle the Costco employees. "I push my cart, with purpose … I ignore [the card checker]," he brags in his latest column. After loading up on industrial-size drums of Preparation H, or whatever the perennially irritated go to buy, he continues his asshattery. "I know my rights," he says. "You can't hold me hostage." Ugh. We're sure they're glad to see you go. [Source]

Where the Trail Ends: just a few more weeks before the release of Andreu Lacondeguy's movie
During the past months Andreu was also busy with the shooting of the movie "Where the Trail Ends", which will be released in September.
Andreu Lacondeguy is one of the more talented riders sponsored by Marzocchi, using alternatively a 888 or a 55 CR Marzocchi fork, which works together with a Roco shock. Andreus skills allowed him to win many competitions, but such skills come at a price of spending many hours into intense sessions of training all over the world. He also requires customized facilities to better develop his abilities, and this is why, at the beginning of 2012, he began to build his own compound near Barcelona, which was finished in April. During the past months he was also busy with the shooting of the movie Where the Trail Ends, which will be released in September, meanwhile, you can have a tasty forecast, enjoying his spectacular exhibitions, at the following link:

Bears' Michael Bush signs autographs to support Toys for Tots
CRYSTAL LAKE – With a couple of puzzles to donate, Larry Loss, 60, and Carol Zellhofer, 65, both of Woodstock, waited at the Superior 24/7 Health Club for four hours to get a couple of autographs.
Loss brought a Bears T-shirt already donning 75 to 80 autographs, and Zellhofer carried a picture of Chicago Bears running back Michael Bush.
"We're devoted fans," Loss said.

To What Extent Should We Follow 'reason'?

For instance, let us imagine religion X whose "holy book" says that all those children born on SATurday are SATanic. Hence, it is one's duty to kill those born on Saturday.
If we were practitioners of religion X, what should we do?

Is it reasonable that a man and a women should not shake hands?
The heart of man earns whatever it strives for and its destination ends at its contentment. Those who seek God shall find God, those who seek an argument shall find an argument, and those who seek a reply shall find a reply, God says:
"So let anyone who wishes take the way toward his Lord. But you do not wish unless it is wished by Allah. Indeed Allah is all-knowing, all-wise." - Quran, al-Insan, 76:29-30.
Whosoever God has made his heart find rest at His remembrance has prospered into the heights of man, beyond the angelical kingdom towards salvation, and finally annihilation in the Beloved. But as for him whose deeds weigh light in the scales, his home will be the Abyss. They treaded upon a path without an end, an abyss, for beyond God -- there is nothing else -- and these hearts shall never see the light of their journey; thus they search for answer until the weariness of the journey overcomes them and stops at whatever is between their hands and seeks not what is beyond that, thus: "They know just an outward aspect of the life of the world, but they are oblivious of the Hereafter." - Quran, al-Rum, 30:7.

That is a good question. What do YOU mean by reason? What is reason? I would like to hear others definition as well.
I suppose what I meant was more on the lines of what is logically true, or is true through reason. .
I opened this thread because I was contemplating Socrates 'We are to follow an argument wherever it may take us' and then Nietzsche when we wrote that men do not follow reason. They believe, then they reason.

reason is to be followed in matters of belief (usool aldeen) = fundamentals of the religion or the Aqeeda
once the fundamentals are established then the details of the religion we would follow the reasoning of the masoom because we established with pure analysis and existentially that he is masoom therefore we need to imitate in this regard because the Devil is in the details and our reasoning might becomes faulty when the matter gets difficult because it will not stay as reasoning but elements from the self desire will go into it ,
this doesn't mean that the details of the religion are not based on reasoning and those reasoning can not be contemplated but it just means you can not do ijtihad in opposition to the clear text unless it contradicts the fundamentals

I suggest that the problem is not in Reason, i.e. the flow of inference which leads us from premises to conclusions, but in Language, or in other words, Conception. The concepts we use in arguments are purely mental constructions, fragmented from a whole reality. However, at its best, it gives us a very good description of Reality as a fragmented whole (which is not necessarily True to Reality, but is True to our experience with Reality - arguably, it probably is not True to Reality itself). At its worst, we come up with inconsistent descriptions of Reality, wherein some fragments contradict other fragments. This is because we capture the wrong concepts from Reality - we fragment clumsily and vaguely. For a very crude example, we fragment a heap of sand into one concept, and then we want to know the nature of a heap of sand - when is a collection of sand a "heap"?
Socrates is a Man
All Men are Mortal
Socrates is Mortal.
We normally take this to be solid true. However, the concept of Socrates is loaded with vagueness and ambiguity. The concept of Man likewise. The concept of Mortal non the less.
We see father, mother, brother, sister, friend, and we see that in some way we are all similar. Somehow, we can "perceive" this similarity without describing it fully. We call this "Man" (or human). And we see that each of us is a Man but with certain variations. We are instances of Man. Such an instance is "Socrates" placed in a socio-historic context. Then, we see other instances of Man all moving and speaking and showing signs of awareness, and then suddenly, they stop moving, speaking or showing signs of awareness, and their physical components corrode and decompose. This situation is an event, "Death", and this Man who is with all definiteness moving to "Death" is called "Mortal".
But questions already arise - we fragment a vague similarity called "Man", but what is Man? And the same with Socrates? Is it the body? The soul? The soul and body? The Idea? And what, really, is Mortality and Death?
Posted 21 September 2011 - 11:53 AM
Language and conception are two distinct phenomena, for people with distinct languages can conceptualize the same thing. Why are you equating them? It would seem that if there is a problem, it's either in one of them or both. And in whichever one it is, why is it in that one?

Do you order righteousness of the people and forget yourselves while you recite the Scripture? Then will you not reason?
Sahih International 2:73
So, We said, "Strike the slain man with part of it." Thus does Allah bring the dead to life, and He shows you His signs that you might reason.
Sahih International 2:134
Indeed, in the creation of the heavens and earth, and the alternation of the night and the day, and the [great] ships which sail through the sea with that which benefits people, and what Allah has sent down from the heavens of rain, giving life thereby to the earth after its lifelessness and dispersing therein every [kind of] moving creature, and [His] directing of the winds and the clouds controlled between the heaven and the earth are signs for a people who use reason.
Sahih International 2:242
Thus does Allah make clear to you His verses that you might use reason.
Reason, a free mind , aql in Arabic .. Is our strongest asset
The more we reason the better.
More reason = more understanding

About an hour or more alter its close and shortly after ■ Mr. Seed's family had gone to bed, neigh? foois discovered fire in a barn across the road from his house* In the ham Mr. Heed had stored all the implements of, a large farm, a reaper being tlie OEly exception. The neighborhood, known as Reed's •cornel's, is quite thickly settled, and soon there was a small crowd present at tlie scene, -but the fire had obtained a great headway so that it was Impossible to save anything from the burning building. Cultivators, harrows, mower, rakes, etc., and several tons of hay were destroyed. The cause of the fire can only be sui3 SBseci. Mr. Eeed says that he did not Snow he had an enemy, but- can • see no way that a fire could have occurred unless it had been set, although it might .possibly have occurred from some one loafing and smoking there, but this is improbable at this season of tbe year. ;" There was $600 insurance on the TauiMing and contents which is a little more than half: the loss. Mr. Eeed has been carrying insurance on his iiouse and other buildings but had almost concluded to drop insurance altogether as being too great expense. He says now he shall increase it all around. "Mr. Eeed is. a careful, industrious farmer and has a fine farm, but in these quiet timet} ean ill afford even this comparatively small loss. Jas, Fenton of Gfeaa*" township is on the sick list.

Michael Siebert died .Wednesday morning, December 7, at his home, a mile and a half north east of Dover, at the age of 59 years, 8 months and 21 days. His funeral was conducted from his late residence and from the Dover church afc 11 o'clock today, the burial taking, place at Cherry Grove, under the auspices of- the Odd Fellows. Rev.lSr. W.Pierce of Farwell delivered the funeral sermon. Something of a sensation was produced; last Friday and Saturday by the arrest of the inmates of a notorious resort in the first ward. Some fellows went there one evening the week- before and proceeded to turn things over in general, but in turn were rather severely handled, to the extent that they made complaint. The matter was settled however by a cash compromise and things go their usual gait. Mrs. Wm. Caywood, wife of the Free Methodist minister of this place, who has been confined to her bed. most of the time for the last eight months, baffling the skill of physicians, was last week healed in answer to prayer. She walked down to the post office the next day, making several calls oh her way home, and has been doing her own work for the last week and attending a religious meeting every night. In justice to the conductor in charge of the train by which James Davis was injured, as mentioned in last About Our Neighbors. week's Sentosei,, it should be said that he tried to get the caboose down by the" depot where Davis might be easily taken from the train, but was unable to do so on--account of another train which stood ik the way, as we understand it. Some accounts of the aSairseemto be pretty highly colored, to say the least. Interesting Ifews and Comments "WTilcIi we Find in Our Exchanges. Isabella county has 6376 children for whom $5,355v is apportioned this fall. The firm of Eussell & Wheaton, Mt. Pleasant lawyers,have dissolved part" nership. An upholsterer in Cadillac committed suicide recently by drinking a pint of alcohol. It is claimed that since election Wexford county is flooded with $2 bills.—Evening 'Hews. B..F. Mills was fatally injured by a flying board in Tonkin, Harris & Co's mill at Beaverton, a few days ago. The Isabella county world's fair committee is taking hold of the enterprise in a way that means business. The Cooper mill at Coleman which was burnt some time ago has been rebuilt and will soon be running again. Mason county is. going in for raising a bigger crop of onions than ever. Here is a hint for Clare county farmers. . Dushville farmers have concluded that cows pay better than wheat and have organized a creamery with $5000 stock. The Midland Eepublican says that a branch of the F. & P. M. will be completed in the near future to Edenville or "Sixteen," in that county. While Prof. Bellows of the formal atMt. Pleasant was out surveying the other day, a couple of men drove up and stopped, one of them got out and stole the professor's ax right from before his face and eyes and then they cooly drove off. For the next thirty days the most perplexed lot of men in Michigan will be the tax collectors; Just ask one a question and about the only answer you will get will be an ominous shake of the head indicating trouble. There is no end to the questions asked and the hulk of them remain unanswered, —Mt. Pleasant Tribune. Down at St< Louis, Monday, an unreasoning mob tried to hang a young man because a young girl charged him with assault. If he had nbt been an athletic fellow and managed to get away they would have murdered him before they learned, as they did, that the girl'was weak minded and was "in the habit of telling that kind of a story. The next thing to a dumb phool is a crowd of them. Midland county has a farmers' institute on January 10 and 11. Other counties have them. They are carried on in some respects like a teachers' institute, being conducted by able experts with the assistance -;of local talent. The movement, we believe, eminates from the agricultural college and should be met by hearty cooperation everywhere. Farmers as well as merchants need especial training in some lines. Do Clare county farmers want one? Coleman Independent, (Dec. 2:) A sad accident occurred at Marsh & Heald's camp near ISorth Bradley on Tuesday«norning, by which John Eob- insoh's life was ended. He was assisting in pushing down a lodged tree when a limb fell, striking him on the head. He was taken to his home at Sorth Bradley and Dr. Linton was summoned,, but could not save him and he died about 5' o'clock Thursday afternoon. He was 25 years of age, unmarried and leaves a heart-broken- father, mother^ and sister. He carried $2000 insurance in the Maccabee. order, having been a member but ;a short time. '™y.— ■ tfc ^O !

"Had the pine barons of Michigan been able to foresee the present prosperous condition of the hardwood'market they would now feel like kicking themselves," said a well-known hardwood dealer the other day. "A few years ago-they lumbered large tracts of pine and after moving all that was valuable of the timber, permitted the land to revert to the state for taxes. It is heedless to state that they much regret their inconsiderate action, as the hardwood on those same lands has become very valuable and the demand seems to increase.

01 December 2008
1st December 2008 - Mounir Sami, previously general manager of the Corinthia Bab Africa Hotel in Tripoli, Libya, has been appointed general manager of the Corinthia Hotel St George's Bay Malta and joins the hotel following a long and impressive international career in senior hotel management. He was educated at the Swiss Hotel School and at the Cornell University in the United States of America. Mounir is a Canadian citizen and is fluent in English, French, German and Arabic. His career spans top executive appointments with Hilton International, the Al Baraka Group of Hotels, Marriott Hotels & Resorts, Ramada Hotels International and Commonwealth Holiday Inns of Canada. During this time, he has held general management positions in Bahrain, Saudi Arabia, Egypt and Canada. Prior to joining CHI Hotels & Resorts, Mounir was the general manager of the Ramses Hilton in Cairo.
Jonathan Pace, previously deputy general manager at the Corinthia Palace Hotel & Spa in Attard, has been appointed general manager of the Marina Hotel at the Corinthia Beach Resort. At 27, Jonathan is CHI Hotels & Resorts' youngest ever hotel general manager. He obtained his Higher National Diploma in Hospitality Studies from ITS Malta and following a year at the famous Gleneagles Hotel and stints at the Corinthia Hotel Prague and Corinthia Bab Africa Hotel in Tripoli, joined Corinthia Palace Hotel & Spa as conference and events executive and later food and beverage manager. Jonathan was promoted to deputy general manager where, in tandem with the hotel general manager, he was responsible for the overall operation of the hotel.
Both general managers will report directly to Tony Potter, CHI Hotels & Resorts' managing director & CEO. The decision to appoint two independent general managers for the two hotels has been made in order to ensure the appropriate focus and attention to detail to each property and its customers. The overall Corinthia Beach Resort experience to the customer will continue to be a seamless operation offering one of the Mediterranean's largest resort complexes featuring a range of hotel accommodation, restaurants, lido operation, pool operations, spa facilities and extensive conference and banqueting options.
Tony Potter commented today from the Group's Headquarter in Floriana "I am delighted that CHI is continuing to make first class management appointments across the globe such as these two general managers. In Mounir Sami, the Corinthia Hotel St. George's Bay will be operated by one of the industry's true veterans, who will be able to bring the appropriate management style and experience in order to maintain Corinthia Hotel's place as one of the leading 5-Star properties in the Mediterranean. In Jonathan Pace, we have a tremendous opportunity to develop a young and dynamic Maltese hotel professional to be one of Europe's leading general managers of the future. Both general managers, with their outstanding teams, will, I am sure, be able to position their respective properties as the very best in their markets. Given our intention to further develop the spirit of the Corinthia brand to reflect the colours, flavours and experience of the Maltese Islands, it is particularly appropriate that all three of our general managers in Malta, including Italico Rota at the Corinthia Palace Hotel & Spa, report directly to myself, along with our two recently appointed regional vice presidents in the regions of Western Europe and Africa and the Middle East. I am particularly proud of our CHI Team and look forward to promoting the Corinthia brand in our exciting new destinations in London, Sharm El Sheikh, Bucharest and Benghazi."

A friend of mine who I correspond with online is also pregnant, and hasnt told her parents. Well when I was talking with her today, she informed me she had told her parents and it didnt go over to well. I told her that what her parents are doing is child abuse and that I know in Canada there are pregnancy centers for girls who have no support or money to go for the duration of their pregnancy where they will get medical help and then aid in finding work and low income housing. I have no clue what they do in the states though in this kind of situation and so im asking you girls for help.
She is sixteen, and her parents are highly religous. They will not allow her to get an abortion (she didnt want one anyways but there is no choice). She is escorted to school where her mother sits in the parkinglot at the exit of the school to ensure she stays there all day, and then escorts her home. They will NOT allow her any prenatal care or access to a doctor, because they are religious. They have taken away personal items like razor and toothbrush to punish her. She dosent want her baby to grow up in that kind of house hold, but she dosent know what she can do. She cant join up here because they are tracking her webuseage to ensure she dosent go to sites like these, she can only go on msn and check her email, which they also check. I dont know how to help her. Any moms in the states know what she can do?

Remember how one of my New Year's resolutions was to stick to monthly $300 shopping budget? Well, I just spent almost half of that budget on 1 thing: J. Crew Double Serge Pencil Skirt in nightfall blue. (Note: I actually also bought the skirt in Bright Dahlia but it's backordered until Jan 31, so I'm counting it towards next month's budget. :) Needless to say, I am in love with this skirt. I've noticed this skirt on just about every fashion blogger out there but didn't buy it for a few reasons: (1) I hadn't embraced colorful clothing yet (2) it's from J. Crew, which has never known to fit me (3) the asking price is $118!
Reasons (1) and (2) were banished as the months went by (thanks to the Color Brigade and to my J. Crew placket cardi) and I slowly started lusting after this skirt every time I saw another fashion blogger wear it. I had been checking the J. Crew website daily since the end of November to see if it would ever go on sale. To my dismay, it never went on sale and I was starting to get worried that the 00P would start to sell out. So I ended up forking over the money for these skirts at full price last week. I am actually really glad that I did so cause this skirt is definitely going to be one of the staples in my closet now!
Mini Review:
Surprisingly enough, this skirt fit perfectly with no alterations necessary! Here are some close-ups of the skirt in size 00P (for reference, I am 5'0" and 98 lbs. waist = 23.5", hips = 33". also apologies for the messy look -- I just got out of yoga):
Perfect fit around the waist, hips, and length. A first for J. Crew! |
Slight waist gap, but only if you pull on it. |
How it sits naturally: a little lower than the natural waistline, but not noticeably so! |
Back view |
And just for comparison's sake, since I know many of the petites out there also purchased the H&M lace pencil skirt, here is the J. Crew skirt layered under the H&M pencil skirt in size 2:
The J.Crew skirt is barely any bigger and it seems to be just around the hips! |
I'm hoping that my skirt in Bright Dahlia will also work out, although it does seem like there might be some inconsistencies with J. Crew sizing. You can also check out this skirt on Jean, Callandra, and Cher.

India has recreated this aging process with open warehouses that let in the Monsoon winds, which after six weeks' time turn the green beans a golden yellow, a color that accompanies a mellowing of the cup and deepened intensity of flavor.

GOP official: House to vote to lift debt limit
WASHINGTON (AP) — The Republican-controlled House will vote next week to permit the government to borrow more money to meet its obligations, a move aimed at heading off a market-rattling confrontation with President Barack Obama over the so-called debt limit.
Full details aren't settled yet, but the measure would give the government about three more months of borrowing authority beyond a deadline expected to hit as early as mid-February, No. 2 House Republican Eric Cantor of Virginia said Friday.
The legislation wouldn't require immediate spending cuts as earlier promised by GOP leaders like Speaker John Boehner of Ohio. Instead, it's aimed at forcing the Democratic-controlled Senate to join the House in debating the federal budget. It would try to do so by conditioning pay for members of Congress on passing budget measures through the House and Senate.

Sock garters used to be as common as socks and shoes, but with the invention of socks that stay up on their own, garters went out of style. These days, if you need something to keep your socks up, they can be hard to find or boring. We had such a hard time finding any that we started making our own! We didn't invent them, we just reinvented them.

(UPI) -- Microsoft has announced it will sell its own branded tablet computers as competition for the iPad, unveiling them Monday afternoon in Los Angeles.
The company announced two Surface tablet models, one running Windows 8 Pro and one with Windows 8 RT, engadget.com reported.
The RT model has a 10.6-inch display, is 9.3 millimeters thick, weighs 1.3 pounds and is powered by a NVIDIA ARM chip, engadget.com reported.
The slightly larger Windows 8 model is 13.5 millimeters thick, weighs 1.9 pounds and runs an Ivy Bridge Core i5 processor.
Both models will be available with magnetically-attachable covers that feature keyboards.
Microsoft did not discuss pricing and availability, going only as far to say prices will be "on par with Ultrabook-class PCs" for the Windows 8 Surface, which will be available about three months after the Windows 8 launch.
The RT model will be available at around that launch time, the company said.

Kansas Bill Would Restrict Airport Searches
Associated Press - Fri 09:42 AM 02/15/2013
Kansas is joining other states that have objected to what they consider aggressive searches of people unlikely to be potential threats.
Some Kansas House members think pat-downs at the state's airports are getting out of hand.
A bill sponsored by 21 House members would it illegal for Transportation Security Administration screeners to touch an airline passenger's private parts during a search. It also would bar the agents from taking a child under the age of 18 away from a parent or guardian to conduct a search.
Kansas is joining other states that have objected to what they consider aggressive searches of people unlikely to be potential threats.
But some experts say the law couldn't be implemented because the U.S. Constitution bars states from regulating the actions of the federal government.
Between 100 and 110 TSA officers are stationed at seven Kansas airports.

Frankie Boyle: I Would Happily Punch Every One of You In the Face
Following his epic record-breaking tour in 2008, Frankie Boyle, star of BBC2s Mock the Week and one of the hottest and most controversial comedians of the moment, is back on the road in 2010 with an all new live show entitled Id Happily Punch Every One of You in the Face.
Frankie Boyle: I Would Happily Punch Every One Of You In The Face |
On the day the BBC issues new guidelines prompted, in part, by jokes Frankie Boyle cracked on Mock The Week, the man himself demonstrates exactly the sort of comedy you get when you ride roughshod over any considerations about disparaging people. The answer is: a very funny sort. Yes, it is abjectly cruel there are very few guilt-free laughs in this corrosively evil 80 minutes but the sheer brutality is what makes it funny. If youre going to be vicious, you may as well do it with relish, and Boyle has such a reckless abandonment of conscience, you can only gasp at his excess. Knowing that its so wrong - combined with the devastating, dark hyperbole of the callously efficient writing is what makes his material so powerful. When Boyles jokes about swimmer Rebecca Adlington were criticised by BBC bigwigs for targeting an undeserving victim, his defence was such peripheral lightweight figures were all the Mock The Week producers gave him to work with. Well live, where he can put whomever he likes into the crosshairs, he picks such worthy prey as, erm, the McCanns, the victims of the Cumbrian taxi driver killer, Jade Goody and Katie Prices disabled son. That last gag is the pinnacle of sickening taste, leaving Boyle to hope the sheer audacity overrides his audiences scruples. Rest assured, it does. It is his audience, after all, and no one could be under any illusions as to what his show would entail. He does raise some issues, most notably Britains shameful involvement in Afghanistan or our security forces complicity in torture, but for the most part his political agenda is little more than being rude to David Cameron. Though maginally less rude, it must be said, than he is to a cancer victim. That said, the image he conjures up is so perfectly evocative of the smug old Etonian, you wont forget it in a hurry. Therein lies Boyles strength for behind the sheer nastiness lies a keen wit, focussed as sharp as any laser. His analogies are so destructively accurate, and described with such rare elegance, the have a hideous beauty, like some comedic gargoyle. The defence for any bad taste is summed up in one of his few gags you could repeat in polite company: Whenever anyone is asked what they were doing the moment they learned Michael Jackson died, the answer will always be texting a joke about Michael Jackson dying. Sick gags are common currency, and Boyle is the Royal Mint. He starts the show by verbally laying into a teenager in the front row (there despite the rather wise over-18s only policy), for no apparent reason. The punter, of course, loves it the implication is that whatever follows are only jokes and no harm intended. You could easily argue the opposite, but the one thing you couldnt accuse Boyle of is comic laziness with hundreds of efficient, well-honed one-liners. You certainly get a lot of insults for your money, although a touch of variety might help hold the attention in the face of such a unrelenting onslaught of moral bankruptcy. Boyle says he doesnt need the rush of performing, and has stated this will be his last tour as he (wrongly) feels that stand-up is not for the over-40s. But he does appear to be having fun on stage, frequently bursting into deep, demotic laughter at his own nerve, providing welcome breaks in the tone of the show. Its no-holds-barred stuff, though, and if you like Boyle on TV, youll most likely love him as his raw, uncensored, uncompromising self. Just be prepared to be condemned to the fiery pits of Hell for doing so. |

He is just fantastic! michele castorina, May 2011 |
I just saw Frankie in Aberdeen last night. He was highly offensive, trod all over people's sense of high morality, and showed brutal disregard for the feelings of others. I feel refreshed - the guy's a genius! Orson_Kart, December 2010 |
I think he is totally shit and would love to punch him in the face! Sam, December 2010 |
I saw his latest tour in Newcastle. Have to say it was very pedestrian. found myself finishing off his gags. It looked like he wasn't enjoying the gig. He took to ridiculing the audience but without the wit of other comics I have seen. It all seemed quite vitriolic. willbhoy, July 2010 |
I have just heard some of this ugly little punk's antisemitic rant- you think this is funny? Daniel Bentley, May 2010 |
This man has little regard for his audience and no interest in whether you are enjoying the show or not. I went to his last tour and he was just offensive - no wit or humour. It was poor - and would have been cheaper to have sat in the pub listening to the resident know it all. I didn't like him on stage (although I like him on TV). Attend at your peril and prepare for disappointment. graham clowes, April 2010 |
Saw the second night of this tour in Glasgow on the 17th March. The sellout crowd cheered him to the rafters even when all he did was introduce the support act. A couple of times in the show he said after a particularly offensive gag "Fuck it this is my last tour anyway - I don't care". Truth was that he did care. He is often accused rightly of re-using material but this time it was original for the most part. The few items that were familiar had been tweaked to be slightly different. The gags themselves were caustic offensiveness personified but none the worse for that. A few hecklers were stamped all over in an almost joyous way. As with all comedians who have a high one liner rate the audience flagged a bit but a couple of seriously offensive and seriously funny one liners woke everyone up. I would recommend to anyone except vicars, grannies, maiden aunts etc etc Andy B, March 2010 |
if musicians can sing the same song twice why can't a comedian tell a joke he told on telly? He isnt the only comedian who does it. His last tour was fab chelsea-anne, August 2009 |
In regards to Beth, this IS his last tour. In regards to Alex, there is a gap between Mock the Week 2009 ending and his tour beginning, so hopefully new stuff! I can't wait. Was outside the Manchester Apollo on my way to work this morning and got front row seats! Wooooo James H, July 2009 |
Since he's retiring soon, it'd be nice if he wrote fresh material for this one. (As in, material not already televised) beth, July 2009 |
I suppose this will be all the material we see each week on Mock The Week, just like his last tour. Alex Maple, July 2009 |
