Not an American user? DescriptionConker: Live & Reloaded is a combination of frantic online multiplayer action and a single-player mode, which is a remake of the original Conker's Bad Fur Day for Nintendo 64 with more detailed and technologically advanced graphics, as well as re-recorded music.The single-player game plays very similarly to the original version, but a few gameplay-related changes have been made. Conker now uses a baseball bat instead of the frying pan (his default weapon in the original). A few particularly challenging sequences have been made slightly easier; for example, a crosshair has been added for the slingshot weapon. The remake also censors more swear words with "beeps" than the original release. The multiplayer game supports up to 16 combatants. This team based game is about the war between two factions: Squirrels and Tediz. Each team has multiple classes as Grunt, Sneaker or Skyjockey, and if the team wishes to reign supreme, they must use the teams effectively as every class has it's own special skills. The game is comprised of two different campaigns: The Future War, and The Old War. Both of these include multiple levels which are played in order to tell a story, and ultimately, defining the winner of the campaign. There are also many vehicles, weapons and items to use which help to win the war. ScreenshotsAlternate Titles

Tom and Ray Magliozzi
In early 2012, the Magliozzi brothers announced plans to stop producing new "Car Talk" programs, in part because Tom Magliozzi's (left) 75th birthday was approaching. Produced at Boston's WBUR-FM, "Car Talk" debuted in 1977, and there are more than 1,200 episodes in its archives. The show combined practical advice about cars and car and maintenance with social commentary and the Magliozzis' brand of humor.

Book Description: When did King first encounter an integrated world? (see page 20) How did he learn about nonviolent movements? (see page 53) Why did King need so much paper in the Birmingham jail? (see page 88) Best-selling author Kenneth C. Davis sheds light on the most prominent leader of the Civil Rights movement. Martin Luther King Jr. had big dreams about ending segregation and fervently advocated nonviolent protests. Tragically, his life was cut short. Davis weaves a smooth, flowing narrative through his trademark question-and-answer format, peppering the text with informational sidebars and compelling quotes. Dramatic photographs and stirring black-and-white illustrations by Machiyo Kodaira reveal King's public courage and private fear, as well as the tumultuous times in which he lived.

Monkey Island Parodies of the classic PC adventure, Monkey Island!
Author Comments
If you've never played the Secret of Monkey Island, maybe you should kill yourself right now, cause this is the funniest game ever made. If you HAVE played it: remember those three trials you went through to become a pirate? Well there was one more...
Update, 2/25/02: Changed the start screen into a pre-loader.
Since a lot of people asked: I got the game sprites just by running Monkey Island PC version on an old P166, took PrintScreens and got characters like that. Text was pieced together from game dialogue.
Update, 6/02/04: Taking a look at it now, this thing is damn crude and a little juvenile. Hey, it's practically my first Flash movie ever. Whatever your feelings are on this clip, you might want to also check out my movie Monkey Island 2: Outtakes, which is less crude in humor and better in design. Uh, also, don't hold your breath expecting "Loom: Bobbin's Revenge". That was just an old, rough idea that I had and probably wouldn't work out.
Rated 4.5 / 5 stars February 22, 2002
Monkey Island RULES. Why people are reviewing this badly is beyond me. Either they never played the game or they just don't know good humor when they see it. FatSatan r0x0rz
Rated 4.5 / 5 stars May 29, 2002
heh i liked this since im a fan of the game for the computer. by any chance would you happen to know where i could download this game again? i lost it and it was a fun game :-/ if you do know where, could you let me know at [email protected] ? thanx
Rated 4.5 / 5 stars May 31, 2004
LOL fucking molesters
that was fucking funny. but i thought child porn is illeagal.
I'm not sure, Guybrush is always kinda sketchy about his age. I think in Monkey Island 2 he almost blabs that he's 19, so he's probably 18 or so in part 1. Hopefully.
Rated 4.5 / 5 stars February 20, 2003
As good as it gets
Great parody, the graphics were exactly the same as the original, and the joke was really fun. Well done.
Rated 4.5 / 5 stars February 18, 2002
Very funny.
Crow42 sounds a bit unsure of himself. Hope the naughty scenes in the animation didn't get him too excited.
Anyway. Funny movie, FatSatan.


text: 28 October 2013 One year later: a look back at 2013 and climate policy Posted by: Haley McKey | 1 comment | Share: It's hard to believe it's been a whole year since Hurricane Sandy swept up the northeast coast of the United States, costing billions in damages and, tragically, taking 55 lives. Coastal communities in New York and New Jersey were devastated and a number of coastal national wildlife refuges were flooded and badly damaged, littered with debris. Many areas are still recovering, even now. As 2013 approached, a question loomed: would the Obama administration step up and face the issue of climate change storm impacts head-on? Well, although effectively responding to climate change will be a long-term process, , this past year the federal government has indeed taken a number of important steps in the right direction. Here's a recap. The Sandy Relief Bill: In a rare moment of bipartisan cooperation, Congress quickly passed a $50.4 billion emergency bill to fund Hurricane Sandy relief efforts. It included an unprecedented appropriation providing $360 million to Department of the Interior programs to "increase the resiliency and capacity of coastal habitat and infrastructure to withstand future storms and reduce the amount of damage caused by such storms." In other words, it funded habitat restoration work that could help reduce the impact of future hurricanes, benefiting wildlife, people, and communities. (See below for an update on this!) Oiled debris washes ashore in the wake of Hurricane Sandy. The State of the Union: Many conservation groups wondered if climate change would be addressed in President Obama's State of the Union speech. He did: the president pledged to take action, saying "we can choose to believe that Superstorm Sandy, and the most severe drought in decades, and the worst wildfires some states have ever seen were all just a freak coincidence. Or we can choose to believe in the overwhelming judgment of science and act before it's too late." He went on to say he would take "executive actions…to reduce pollution, prepare our communities for the consequences of climate change and speed the transition to more sustainable sources of energy." A National Strategy: Soon to follow was the March release of the National Fish, Wildlife and Plants Climate Adaptation Strategy, a set of guidelines for restoring wildlife habitat and improving its resilience in the face of climate change. The strategy was created through the collaboration of state, federal and tribal organizations and provides in-depth analysis of climate change-related conservation problems. But it doesn't stop at analysis: it also features practical solutions that confront climate change head-on. It's an unprecedented step towards taking action in a warming world, and mirrors Defenders' own climate adaptation vision. In fact, Defenders of Wildlife played an instrumental role in the development and release of this national wildlife adaptation plan, securing Congressional direction on the preparation of the strategy and engaging the administration throughout its development. Climate Advisory Committee: Defenders' own climate expert Noah Matson [c1] was chosen to be part of the new Department of the Interior Advisory Committee on Climate Change Science. The committee was created to identify key components of effective climate adaptation science strategy, and will advise the Department of the Interior on the activities of the new National Climate Change and Wildlife Science Center and eight regional centers across the U.S. We will see the committee's findings in the years ahead-and how the Interior utilizes them. The Climate Action Plan: In June, President Obama unveiled his new Climate Action Plan in a speech at Georgetown University[c2] . The president recognized that "ecosystems are critical to our nation's economy and the lives and health of our citizens," and that "these natural resources can also help ameliorate the impacts of climate change, if they are properly protected." Building on the National Fish, Wildlife and Plants Adaptation Strategy, the president said he was "directing federal agencies to identify and evaluate additional approaches to improve our natural defenses against extreme weather, protect biodiversity and conserve natural resources in the face of a changing climate." This statement was huge: yet another sign the Obama administration takes climate adaptation seriously and is moving to implement it. EPA Regulations: Defenders and other groups waited to see what President Obama's plan would look like, and what changes it would entail. In September, we saw one of the first climate change-fighting actions under the plan with the announcement: the EPA proposed unprecedented new regulations for newly built coal-fired power plants, requiring them to capture or store 40 percent of their carbon emissions to help combat climate change. It was yet another major step towards comprehensive climate change policy throughout the federal government. Department of the Interior Sandy restoration work: Just last week, the Department of the Interior announced that it is investing $162 million of Hurricane Sandy relief money in projects to better protect coastal communities through habitat restoration work. In a statement, Sally Jewell said that "our public lands are often the best defense against Mother Nature," and even said that "by stabilizing marshes and beaches, restoring wetlands, and improving the resiliency of coastal areas…we can provide an effective buffer that protects local communities from powerful storm surges and devastating floods when a storm like Sandy hits." This is exactly the kind of restoration and adaptation work we need. So what lies ahead for climate change policy in the United States? It's clear that Hurricane Sandy and other climate impacts in 2012 helped spur the Obama administration to take action in 2013. What will the next year bring? Stay tuned for Jamie Rappaport Clark's blog later this week, which covers what we need to see in 2014 if we are to continue on the path towards an effective climate change response.

Ephedra banned

It's a health risk, yet, cigarettes are ok...
Now there's a government decision that's been influenced.
Finally banned, now that they are all but gone from the shelves. Not to mention its only a health risk is abused.
The MEAT people also banned ******** and malformed cows from consumption (makes me wonder what I've been eating all these years). It is now Illegal to eat cow brain and lower intestine in the USA.
Yesterday was a strange news day.

Cow brain isn't all that bad really.
Of course, maybee that's why I'm so edgy now.
I've got madwilliam disease.
Vitamin X
Finally banned, now that they are all but gone from the shelves. Not to mention its only a health risk is abused.
It maybe banned but believe me, Ephedra can be bought in hundreds of places over the internet. I actually bought two containers of AST Sports Science Dymetadrine Xtreme (US banned Version) about 6 months ago which contains Ephedra extract just before it was banned outright.
I have only had 3 tabs out of the 200 I purchased, twice cycling and one when I was playing soccer. The days I took the tabs when I went out cycling were probably the best days I have ever had on a bike ever. I took them with a small amount of creatine and I couldn't believe how easy It was pushing huge gears, up big hills and at the top not being out of breath. It was really strange. I had only been cycling for a month, but I was leaving semi professional riders on the long hills in my area out to dry. The stuff keeps your legs spinning huge gears but without the pain of your lungs & heart.
I heard that they banned it because ephedra had been linked to 110 deaths over the last ten years. I also heard that asprin averages 100 per year, Tylenol 200-300 and Benadril about 600 per year. Of course I heard this over the radio, and I do not confirm these numbers.

Exactly, if you want to look at over the counter products that have killed more people, try plain old tylenol or asprin.
(1996): "]b]Each year,[/b] use of NSAIDs (Non-Steroidal Anti-Inflammatory Drugs) accounts for an estimated 7,600 deaths; and 76,000 hospitalizations in the United States." (NSAIDs include aspirin, ibuprofen, naproxen, diclofenac, ketoprofen, and tiaprofenic acid.)

However, in all fairness, I will also present some numbers that the proponents of banning ephedra are using:
The American Association of Poison Control Centers reported 1178 ephedrarelated adverse reactions in 2001, accounting for 64% of all adverse reactions secondary to commonly used herbs in the United States. However, ephedra products represented only 0.82% of the herbal products for sale in the United States. Indeed, the relative risk for adverse reactions among ephedra users are 10- to 40-fold higher than the risk among those who use other herbal products. It is for this reason, these anti ephedra people are chanting their mantra.
Adverse effects meaning heart attacks, strokes, palpitatins, chest pain, anxiety attacks etc. and not necessarily deaths.
I don't like ephedra, but at the same time I don't think it should be banned when so many other things are more dangerous.
Amen CB!
I don't use it, but I agree- there are a lot of other legal substances out there killing people, and no one blinks.
I would also be interested to see how many of those ephedra related adverse reactions are from people who responsibly take ephedra and follow the directions on the box.
We have a tendency to overreact (in the USA) when we see a situation go bad- we have this knee-jerk reaction, then we just sweep it all under the rug and pat it down, without considering all scenarios.

AT&T Fires Back at FCC Staff Report on T-Mobile Deal
The U.S. Federal Communications Commission has invited questions about its impartiality with a staff report laying out concerns about AT&T's proposed mobile carrier T-Mobile USA, AT&T said Thursday.

The official school day typically ends around 3 p.m.
On Friday night, school was in session at Normal West starting at 7:30 p.m. and lasting until 9 p.m.
During that stretch the Wildcats gave the Danville Vikings all kinds of lessons in basketball as Normal West won its sixth straight with a 63-39 victory.
"I don't know how good Normal West is but they looked awfully good tonight," Danville coach Ted Houpt said. "I don't know how much we had to do with that. Their ability to knock down the 3, not turn the ball over, get layups and find the open man — it was beautiful to watch.
"It would have been if I hadn't been on the other bench."
Normal West, which improved to 10-6 overall and 5-3 in the Big 12 Conference, had 20 assists on 25 baskets and the Wildcats shot a remarkable 58 percent (25-of-43) including making 14-of-21 in the second half.
"We just have an unselfish team," Normal West coach Brian Cupples said. "We didn't run a whole lot of stuff. We just have kids that understand shot fake, pass fake, make the extra pass and when you make shots, you get an assist.
"We were in a good rhythm offensively."
That was definitely the case at the start of the game and the start of the second half.
The Wildcats scored the game's first 13 points on 5-of-7 shooting with senior guard Adam McGinnis knocking down two of his game-high four 3-pointers in the first 4 minutes, 35 seconds.
"We have to have good starts," Cupples said. "We emphasize that we have to get the lead. We need to dictate the way the game is going to be played.
"We made some shots and I thought we had good ball movement."
Normal West sliced through both Danville's man-to-man defense and the Vikings 2-3 zone.
"We thought we could put some pressure on them, but it didn't bother them very much," Houpt said. "They went backdoor, they got layups. We went zone and couldn't find the shooters.
"We didn't do a great job defensively, but they were as impressive as any team we've seen."
In spite of the slow start, Danville battled back in the second quarter, pulling within 29-24 at halftime thanks in part to junior guard Marcus Merriweather who had six points and five assists in the first half.
Houpt pointed out his Vikings, who fall to 2-13 overall and 1-7 in the Big 12 with their ninth straight loss, have had good starts recently only to see things turnaround in the second half. He was hoping things would go differently on Friday night.
"In the first half, when we weathered that ugly start," Houpt said. "I thought we were in good shape down five. I thought we were on the other end. We turned it around and had the momentum."
Normal West didn't waste any time in the second half regaining its dominance.
The Wildcats went on a 8-0 run in the first 89 seconds of the third quarter with 6-foot-6 senior center Adam Newhouser converting a pair of three-point plays sandwiched around a layup by Spencer Seibring.
"The start of the third quarter was really big," Cupples said. "It kind of took their will away.
"The made a run at us and we took their roll away in the third quarter."
Danville didn't make its first field goal of the second half until there was 5 minutes, 48 seconds left in the fourth quarter when Denzel Smith, who had a team-high 14 points off the bench, hit a short jumper.
The Vikings had missed eight straight shots and committed six turnovers in the second half before that shot. Their only points during that 21-2 run for Normal West was two free throws by Te'Von Hutcherson.
"It's hard to keep coming back," Houpt said. "It's hard to overcome a lot of mental lapses. The energy is there, everyone is trying. But, there is not a concentration or a focus.
"We play hard on defense, but we give up so many layups."
And every Danville miscue – offensively or defensively – was very costly as Normal West had just six turnovers and the Wildcats contested every shot by the Vikings.
"Just being smart and taking whatever we gave them," said Houpt of the Wildcats. "They seemed to make the right decisions every time. It just wears you down, when you make a mistake and the other team doesn't.
"Hopefully, we can learn from that. They are just good caretakers of the ball. That's something we just desperately need to work on."
And what was even more frustrating for Houpt was that the Vikings had a good week of practice.
"Everyone was confident we had this figured out," Houpt said. "We were going to attack the seams of the zone, and we're going to have shooters spotting up.
"But we had problems getting the ball to Denzel. Until we start knocking down shots consistently, teams are just going to pack it in, taking him away from us."
After playing its last four games on the road, Danville is back at home on Tuesday with a contest against the Champaign Central Maroons. The sophomore game begins at 6 p.m. with the varsity game tentatively set for a 7:30 p.m. tipoff.
In the preliminary game on Friday, Normal West defeated Danville 53-42. Leading scorers for the Vikings were Anthony Thomas with 14 and Aubrey Duncan finished with 10.

Our long awaited Fred ludtke Monocoupe 90AW145 arrived a week ago from Burlington, NC.
The photos show the Coupe , the Warner Super Scarab, the long 32` one piece wing and a bunch other parts that all made the trip in good shape.
Bill Willmeroth from Deland Florida does a fantastic job in moving delicate projects such as our Monocoupe.
All the parts and pieces have been inventoried, we seem to be missing only the two lower control stick pivot bracketts that mount through the floor boards to straps welded to the cross tubes .
The 90AW145 Fuselage rolls off the trailer, all the wood work is there for patterns and will helpful in fabricating all new wood for the curvaious Monocoupes lines. 650X10 wheels and brakes have been added over time and as a result the original axels were cut off and a bolting pad welded in place. With the age and amount of splices on each gear leg quite a bit of fabricating will take place and then heat treating to create new gear legs.
As you can see most of the instruments are still in place that were installed when Fearlees Freddie flew the Coupe.
Freddie has supplied us with a few parts and some drawings to aid in the restoration process, also included was a antique Hallcrafter com radio that might look great with front face plate installed in the new panel, kind of art deco.
The woodwork was last open to day lite way back in 1967, one can see how the Coupes Teal shaped aft fuselage gets it`s beautiful shape .
The fuselage tubing appears to be in great shape and after documentation and critical photos we will go forward with the fuselage disassebly , sandblasting and priming, followed by the new woodwork.
One of the more difficult and delicate pieces is the Coupe 32` one piece wing, I wish this was a Clip Wing ( more on a Clip Wing later)
Peeking in a few holes cut in the fabric the wing looks to be in great shape, gremlins can come out in mega batches once old the old fabric is cutaway though, we`ll see shortly!!

Corporate E-mail Pitfalls
Where I work, the corporate policy for all communication is through the use of e-mail and e-mail lists. I like to think that tech companies are in the know and willing to embrace new technologies such as wikis, blogs or anything that supports syndicated feeds. The problem is that there is a varying mix of people and wisdom of the masses can sometimes fail.
Here are a few problems I have with e-mail and e-mail subscription lists:
- Suffer from poorly constructed subject lines. Lets face it, many people do not know or care to take even the slightest bit of effort to construct a subject line that would be easily searchable and convey the general purpose of the message. Some simple tactics would be: Writing sensible email messages and Getting the Subject Line Right.
- Suffer from randomly formated message bodies. Ever get a message that is part HTML and part text? Maybe you get people who like to use different colored fonts and font sizes. How about header and footer images, or even background images? Yeah, now were talking. It's a kaleidescope of fonts, colors, and images while you try to find the real content.
- Generally have bloated signatures. Sure, it might be nice the first time around but if I have to converse with you multiple times it gets monotonous really fast. Lets not forget about people who feel the need to add cheesy graphics as either part of the header or footer of their e-mail message. Then there are always those touched individuals who love to add famous quoted material either in the form of a single line or an entire paragraph to their signatures. Yeah, thanks buddy, but I really don't care! So think about what your e-mail signature says about you before setting it up.
- Difficult to follow message threads. Think of the multiple reply and forward messages not to mention the splinter reply and forward messages based off of a related reply or forward message (i.e. "re:re:fw:re:fw:Check this out"). Even that last sentence alone should make your head hurt. Mine does.
- Do not have the ability to catch up on any historic conversations unless you ask people to forward their mail to you (which isn't going to happen). Obviously, there is some history that took place but good luck learning about it!
- Can have e-mail lists (which is like a subscription to content written by many people of which you can also contribute to). E-mail lists alleviate some of the problems of personal e-mail but are cumbersome to gain access to (either via a web interface or a complete dump to your inbox). Many times these lists are not even archived which, again, means no history.
- Allow the user no choice on what they want to listen to. With personal e-mail it is difficult to turn off the spam once you have given out your e-mail address. Yeah, you can set up filters but wouldn't it be great if you could just turn it all off with a click of a button or simply unsubscribe? Same goes for e-mail lists. No choice. It's all or nothing.
My solution has been to push people away from this overused format and use blogging software to help foster communities of interest. Progress has been slow because it is hard to get people to open up and take a bit of time to jot down what they learn to reduce the strain on e-mail (example: Personal vs. Corporate Blogging).
I am curious. Has anyone else had luck changing corporate mentality? What are your successes and failures?

The "Thank You" messages are interesting as it is nice to show appreciation for helpful information sometimes. They can be very annoying if overused, of course.

text: The CM Punk wiki last edited by joshthebear on 07/24/13 10:16PM View full history OverviewCM Punk is a one-time Ring of Honor World Champion and a five-time WWE World Champion (3 time World Heavyweight Champion and 2 time WWE Champion). He became the center of the biggest WWE storyline in 2011, beating John Cena (for his first reign as WWE Champion), at Money in the Bank 2011 in his home town of Chicago. He left the company with the belt, to later return and take on the WWE's top officials including "Mr. Mcmahon" and his replacement Triple H.Punk was the WWE Champion from November 2011 to January 2013, a title reign lasting 434 days, eventually losing to The Rock at the 2013 Royal Rumble.Differences in character have ranged from good guy and bad guy versions of his real life straight edge following (which lead to the creation of the nefarious militant straight edge group, the Straight Edge Society), to more recent good guy and bad guy versions of a disgruntled WWE employee aligned with ECW creator and professional wrestling personality Paul Heyman (who Punk credits for seeing his best traits when no-one else could and being the person most helping in him reach his current position behind-the-scenes).FinishersGo 2 Sleep (GTS) - Fireman's carry dropped into a knee lift.Anaconda Vice - Arm-trap triangle choke, mostly from a supine position.Pepsi Plunge - Diving double underhook facebuster (has since retired this move due to knee problems)Signature MovesPepsi TwistDevil LockDevil Lock DDTWelcome to Chicago (Mother Fucker): Double Underhook BackbreakerEnzugiriShining Wizard to an opponent at the turnbuckle, followed by a bulldogShining Wizard to a kneeling opponent"Macho Man" Elbow DropChampionships HeldWorld Wrestling EntertainmentECW Championship - 1 timeSept. 1, 2007.

His most notable role, just prior to his rise as one of WWE's biggest on-screen superstars, was in WWE All Stars. A game which featured many what if story-lines based on current superstars against inactive legends. Punk's match was against Stone Cold Steve Austin, with a video package by WWE's production team which cut and mixed previous live-action promos of the Straight Edge Society version of CM Punk against the beer drinking Steve Austin.This would lead to a lot of talk on social networking website Twitter about a potential rivalry (Punk and Austin have since had on-screen non-wrestling confrontations) and Austin saying that if he ever came back for one more match, he would want it against CM Punk.

A great place for my kids. They love the games room and the acre of land to play football. My older son love the ffitness centre and then jumping into the pool to cool off. Facilities great, I love all the palm trees The property was clean and well maintained The cable tv did not offer all the channels you required, some of the was blocked. The property was great for transport , bus stop only 1 minute away. We were provided with a good customer service by the caretaker. I would recommend the property to a friend, as it is great for families with children. They need to update their games room with games machines like xbox360 RyanRecommended for: Families with young children, families with teenagers.

Horror, the James Wan Way
The reason movies like Insidious, The Conjuring, and now Insidious: Chapter 2 function as effective frightmares is because Wan understands what gets under our skin.

Hatchet II: Interview with Adam Green, Kane Hodder and Tom Holland
Horror film is the purest genre, as it taps into our emotions directly, without the pretense of art. "It never takes me long to get into character. It's a good thing that I have the type of job where your criminal record has no bearing on your success." -- Kane Hodder on playing Victor Crowley [Hatchet I & II]

Ray Bradbury Wrote Me Back
My affinity for Ray Bradbury's work is rooted in his "accidental novels", as well as in the collections that plunder what is seemingly a limitless vault of manuscripts.

I want to solve this problem in need scheme of calculating the sin function recursively without using the factorial and powers!
must be in the same function call no other! Thank you!
It's difficult to tell what is being asked here. This question is ambiguous, vague, incomplete, overly broad, or rhetorical and cannot be reasonably answered in its current form. For help clarifying this question so that it can be reopened, visit the help center.If this question can be reworded to fit the rules in the help center, please edit the question.
You could try Euler's infinite product form: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Infinite_product#Product_representations_of_functions The recursion could look for differences within a tolerance, so for example, if x_n is the value on the n th iteration, say you stop recursing when abs( x_n - x_(n-1) ) < epsilon |

Can you imagine if every Sunday was like Christmas, in the retail sense, with nearly all stores closed? Welcome to weekends in Europe. When I moved to Switzerland, one big adjustment was that restaurants, malls and grocery stores are closed on Sundays. 'But what do you mean everything is closed?' I asked my husband. 'What if you need food? I don't understand?!' I went on. 'You spend the day with your family and if you have to go shopping, do it Saturday,' he replied calmly.
He wasn't kidding, and I actually really love it now. If it's a Sunday afternoon in Switzerland, everyone is out with their family or friends – especially when it's sunny. Jogging, bike-riding, skiing in the alps, or taking long walks near the lake. A 2 hour walk is just what we did yesterday before I slithered into these faux leather pants and a safari style sweatshirt to check out a local Expat Expo near Zurich welcoming newbies to Swiss life…
<DETAILS by Dale> pants ~ Zara, sweatshirt ~ H&M, bag (old) ~ Mulberry, sandals (old) ~ BCBG, necklace ~ TJMaxx
On our wilderness walk yesterday, I reminisced about weekend adventures in San Francisco on foot discovering new neighborhoods and hole-in-the-wall cafes. Not to mention, it's a major calf workout. On your next Sunday afternoon, why not create a little 'urban safari' in your city – who knows what you'll discover? Could you imagine if the US was 'closed for business' every Sunday?

SEOUL, June 25 (Reuters) - South Korea said on Tuesday that the country's national pension service, the world's fourth-largest by assets, plans to create a foreign-currency account to better manage its growing overseas investment.
The National Pension Service will likely start using a foreign-currency account in 2014 after selecting a bank that will hold the funds and establishing related internal system to utilise such an account, the welfare ministry said in a statement.
The fund held 64.1 trillion won ($55.19 billion) out of its total assets of 392 trillion won in foreign assets, including bonds, stocks and real estate, as at the end of last year. It has been increasing overseas investments to diversify its portfolio and boost gains.
($1 = 1161.3500 Korean won)

Barack Obama: Best-Dressed List 2009
The ballots are in! While fashion has always had its politics, this year's International Best-Dressed List includes Barack and Michelle Obama, Michael Bloomberg and Diana Taylor, and Carla Bruni-Sarkozy, alongside Hollywood stars (Brad Pitt, Penelope Cruz, Daniel Craig), royals (H.R.H. Princess Letizia of Asturias), and businessmen (Arpad Busson, Alejandro Santo Domingo), among others. Now it's your chance to get in on the vote. Which outfit looks best on today's honoree? Plus: See photos of everyone who made the best-dressed roster.
The Washington, D.C., and Chicago-based President of the United States Barack Obama, 48, is consistent when it comes to fashion: he's likes wearing navy suits, white shirts, and conservative ties, often in light blue. His clothes, which are usually American-made, are simple and clean-cut, thanks to the eye of a sharp tailor. And his style icon? The Kennedy men.

The Word DetectiveComic, skeptic, cyber-sleuth, syndicated columnist, and inspired wordsmith, Evan Morris is the Word Detective. He's an etymologist with a sense of humor, a lexicographer with an attitude. Morris's unique approach to language and his distinctive brand of absurdity have found a loyal following of readers curious about everything from soup to nuts--and that means the origins of the phrase soup to nuts, and thousands more words and phrases. This book is a collection of 150 of Morris's language columns, which appear in newspapers throughout the country and on his popular Web site. A clueless husband writes the WORD DETECTIVE to ask if his wife has insulted him by calling him gormless. Coworkers write to settle a watercooler dispute about the logic of feed a cold, starve a fever. The Word Detective snoops around, follows the leads, and uncovers the answers. The book is chock-full of fascinating lore about the origins and uses of the English language and includes special sections exploring groups of words such as euphemisms, eponyms, and onomatopoeic forms. Funny and offbeat, clever and curmudgeonly, irreverent and irritable, this detective is for all of us who appreciate a dash of wit with our words. |
