A caste in Indian society, slightly higher than pigs, but slightly lower than cows. Galoreans are known for their unique mating rituals involving the flailing of arms above the head. The savage behaviour of Galoreans is not recognizable by their attributes but their inabilities, which include: spending money, personal hygiene and consumption of alcohol.
Tell your children if you don't study really and do your homework you will become a Galorean.

A new lawsuit claims the Montana Highway Patrol improperly detained Hispanic drivers over unfounded concerns they were in the country illegally.
The lawsuit was filed in U.S. District Court Monday by the Montana Immigrant Justice Alliance.
It says patrol officers were pulling over the Hispanic drivers for routine traffic violations and detaining them to check their immigration status.
The lawsuit argues the agency had no reason or authority to detain the drivers. It says race was the sole basis of the detentions.
The Montana Department of Justice says it is reviewing the lawsuit and had no immediate comment.
Former Montana Highway Patrol chief Kenton Hickethier resigned this summer amid a personnel complaint that alleged he told an officer to arrest people who might be in the country illegally.

Washington Nationals slugger Bryce Harper apparently had Tuesday off from his real job, so instead of just taking it easy and doing whatever it is that Bryce Harper does to chill and relax — although Harper strikes me as the kind of guy who would use the term "chilax" instead of going with both "relax" and "chill," but that's another story altogether — he is spending some time fielding phone calls from prospective purchasers of Nationals season-ticket packages. As mentioned above, no "clown questions" likely will be tolerated.
Harper even uploaded a photo to his Twitter account to document how Bryce Harper goes about working as a ticket operator.

How to Survive a School or Workplace Shooting
Running AwayHiding and Barricading YourselfAttacking the ShooterPreventing or Preparing for a School or Workplace Shooting
Edited by Trackstar24, Kasey, KnowItSome, Jack Herrick and 68 others
Though your first thought about a school or workplace shooting may be, "That would never happen here," the reality of the matter is that a shooting can happen anywhere at any time. And if you are unfortunate enough to find yourself in the same place as a shooter, whether you're at school or in a workplace, it's best to be prepared. If you can run away reasonably safely, that should always be your first move. If not, you need to hide and barricade yourself. And if you come face to face with a shooter, then you will need to fight for your life. If you want to know how to survive a school or workplace shooting, follow these steps.
Method 1 of 4: Running Away
1Decide if you should run, hide, or fight. If you are able to run away from the shooter in a reasonable amount of time, then it's time to start running as fast as you can. Though you may freeze and be too scared to do anything, remind yourself that runners have the highest survival rate in a shooting. If you can't run away because the shooter is too close or because you're responsible for a group of small children, for example, then you should decide whether you have enough time to barricade yourself in a room before you hide.
- If you don't have time to barricade yourself, then worry about hiding.
- If the shooter attacks you, you'll have to fight him -- this will be your only chance at survival. Read below to find out how.
Ad -
2Run away if you can. If you hear shots in the distance but feel that you can run or escape reasonably safely, then it should be time to plan your escape path. Though you may freeze when you hear the sound of bullets, you need to be able to react immediately and see if running is your best option. Runners have a higher success rate in shootings than people who hide, so if you feel that the shooter is far enough away for you to make a run for it, then now is your chance.[1]
- If the shooter is in close proximity to you, whether he's running up the hall or outside your door, then skip to the next section to look out for tactics for hiding.
- Reacting immediately is crucial to this situation, whether you're running or hiding. Don't freeze up and delay your reaction. This may not give you enough time to run away even though that may be your best option. Freezing can force you to end up hiding, which may not be your best move.
3Run in a zig-zag pattern or crouch down as you run. Though your first instinct will be to run straight ahead, since you'll be running for your life, you should run in a zig-zag pattern to minimize your chances of being shot. If the shooter approaches at a distance and aims his gun at you, you'll be harder to shoot if you're not running in a straight path that gives him enough time to aim his gun. You can also crouch down as you run so it's more difficult to shoot you.[2]
- Run as fast as you can and try to run in a zig-zag pattern or crouch at the same time. But if this is slowing you down or disorienting you, just run forward.
4Forget your belongings. If you've determined that it's best to run, then forget your wallet, your purse, or your cell phone. Though your first instinct may be to take your possessions with you, none of them are as important as your life.
5Bring people with you. As you're running, encourage others to run. If someone looks disoriented or too scared to move, grab that person and drag him with you. Tell the people that running is crucial to your survival. If you're running in a bigger group, it'll be harder to target you individually, and you'll have strength in numbers if you do run up against the shooter.[3]
6Cover your tracks if you can. If you have the time, grab a fire extinguisher and create a path of smoke behind you so the shooter will have a harder time pursuing you. Keep the extinguisher and other sharp objects that can be used as weapons if you face the shooter. But don't waste time looking for weapons or ways to cover your tracks if it'll keep you from escaping.[4]
Method 2 of 4: Hiding and Barricading Yourself
1Determine if you should hide and barricade yourself. It should only take a few seconds to determine if your best course of action should be to run or to hide. If the shooter is rapidly approaching the room you're in, then you should prepare to hide as soon as possible. If you have more time, but not enough time to run, then you should barricade yourself and call the authorities before you hide. If you need to hide and have time to barricade yourself and there are multiple people in the room, you should delegate tasks:[5]
- One person or group of people should lock and barricade the door.
- One person or group of people should call 9-1-1.
- One person or group of people should grab all the weapons he can find.
2Turn off the lights. Immediately turn off the lights in the room where you are. This will disorient the shooter and make it look less likely that there are people in the room where you are.
3Lock and barricade the door. Lock the door immediately and do anything you can to make it more difficult for the shooter to enter. Remember that most shooters only have a few minutes before the police show up, and they're not interested in taking the path of most resistance. Lock the door, place a doorstop on it, and place all heavy furniture like desks and chairs in front of the door immediately to deter the shooter. If the shooter is approaching, get away from the door as soon as you can to keep yourself from being shot through the door.[6]
- If you're in a bathroom that doesn't lock, use a belt or t-shirt to tie the metal latches on top of the door that allow it to open and close.
- Once you've locked and barricaded the door, stay away from the door and all windows immediately.
4Call 9-1-1. If there's a landline in the room, pick it up and call 9-1-1 immediately. Using a landline instead of your cell phone is the best move because the police will automatically be able to trace the call, which they would not be able to do if you called from your cell phone.[7]
5Grab any weapons you can find. Look around the room where you're hiding and find anything that you can use as a weapon. It can be a stapler or sharp scissors you find in the teacher's desk, the hot coffee in the kitchen of your office, beakers in a science room, or anything that is sharp, heavy, made of glass, or which can be used as a weapon. Hold on to these weapons in the event that the shooter enters the room where you are.
6Hide. Once you've grabbed your weapons, it's time to hide under desks, chairs, in closets, or in any hiding places that are convenient. No matter where you hide, you should stay low to the ground to make yourself less of a target. If you have time, turn off your cell phone so the sound won't encourage the shooter to approach you.
7Try to stay calm. Though this may seem nearly impossible, it's crucial that you stay absolutely silent. Tell people that whimpering or crying will only make the shooter more likely to find you. Be mentally prepared for the event that the shooter comes into the room and finds you. In that case, you'll have no choice but to fight.
8Consider playing dead if you can't hide yourself. This only works if shots have been fired and you're already in a room or place when people have been shot and have no place to hide. Then, if the shooter approaches your location, you can take a risk and play dead, hoping that he'll think that you're among the dead and will pass you by. However, this is a risky move because he may not believe you're dead, and you may be too nervous to stay completely still.[8]
9Wait. Once you've hid and barricaded yourself, all you can do is wait for the police to arrive and save you, or wait for the shooter to approach, in which case you'll have to hide. When the police arrive do not run to them or request help, as this may cause them to think you are a threat. Do exactly what the officers tell you to do, do it quickly, and do it without argument or protest. Be as helpful as possible to the authorities. Tell them everything you know.
10Remember that attacking the shooter is your final option. You shouldn't jump out of your hiding place and attack the shooter if he's approaching. You should only fight him if you're sure that you'll be shot if you do nothing.
Method 3 of 4: Attacking the Shooter
1Do not try to reason with the shooter or plead for your life. Trying to engage with the shooter, ask him what he's doing, or to plead for your life by talking about your family has not been proven effective in dealing with shooters. The shooter will be on a rampage and will be beyond hearing the voice of reason, so don't waste your time by trying to talk to him -- you're much better off fighting.
2If there are multiple people in the room, ambush the shooter. If there are multiple people in the room and he can see all of them, then you should all try to attack him at once, hurting him, throwing objects, and doing everything you can to render him powerless. You may not want to fight the shooter if you see that someone else is doing it, but strength in numbers will make it more likely that you'll survive.
3Attack the shooter with any weapon you can. Use your sharp scissors, glass, or any other sharp or heavy objects to attack the shooter immediately. Even a sharp ballpoint pen or pencil could be the perfect weapon for gouging out the shooter's eyes. You're fighting for your life and every second counts. Don't hesitate just because he has a gun and you don't.[9]
4Aim high. Try to hurt the shooter in the face, eyes, shoulders, or neck, or arms, so that he's more likely to let go of his weapon. You should stab him in the neck, gouge out his eyes, or stab him in the arm -- doing anything you can to make him get rid of that weapon or to hurt him so the weapon is within your reach.[10]
- Kick him in the crotch. If you can't go for his face or weapon, kick him in the crotch. This will be an effective way to disarm him and to cause him a large amount of pain.
5Don't think about being shot. Focus on fighting for your life, knowing that most people who are shot by a gun actually survive. Stay strong and fight for your life with everything you've got instead of worrying about the worst-case scenario. This may sound nearly impossible, but this is the best thing you can do if you want to survive the shooting.
Method 4 of 4: Preventing or Preparing for a School or Workplace Shooting
1Report any suspicious activity. Keep alert and always report suspicious incidents to the authorities. If a student or co-worker talks about killing people or threatens to bring a knife or a gun to school, report this to a teacher or law enforcement. You may prevent a disaster by doing so. Many shooters often announce their plans ahead of schedule as a way of showing off; do not take their behavior lightly or as a joke and report it immediately. [11]
2Be aware of your school or workplace's lockdown procedure. Every school and office has some kind of lockdown procedure that stipulates how doors should be locked, where people should hide, and how the authorities should be called, so if you'd like to be prepared for a shooting, be familiar with your workplace's standard procedure when it comes to shootings. Unfortunately, it may be difficult to follow protocol exactly in the event of a shooting, but knowing what it is can help you react in the most helpful way possible.
3Be prepared for a shooting. Though you should not bring a weapon to school or to the workplace just in case there is a shooting, if you'd really like to be prepared, you should take self-defense classes or other classes that teach you how to fight off an attacker in the event of an attack or shooting. Knowing a few fighting tricks can help you feel more confident in the event that you have no choice but to attack a shooter.Ad
- Remain calm.
- If you can see the shooter(s), the shooter(s) can probably see you.
- If you are in the same area as the shooter, find cover, fast. If the shooter opens fire, attempt to take cover behind heavy furniture or any other heavy obstacle. If there is nothing close, simply drop to the floor and lie flat. This will protect your vital organs and make you a smaller target to the shooter. Lying flat could also make the shooter mistake you for dead. Remain quiet and still.
- Seek therapy afterward, if the event was deeply troubling for you.
- If you come face to face with the shooter, run away in a zigzag pattern. It will be hard for the shooter to accurately shoot a moving target.
- Do not attack your shooter if s/he says that s/he can see. Unless they're looking directly at you, they're probably not telling the truth.
- Don't take personal belongings or put yourself at risk to collect these items. Personal property can be replaced —- your life can't.
- Don't let the fear of a shooting change your life. It is out of your control. Just live life to its fullest knowing what to do if a shooting ever did happen.

Practice matters for opener Trott

In England's first innings, Jonathan Trott had made his way to 46 as he helped himself to the friendly Haryana bowling on Day One.
However, when the former Test bowler Amit Mishra got himself on, Trott was out trying to sweep the leg spinner. On a track that offered little assistance to the bowlers and against an ordinary bowling attack, all of England's top-six helped themselves to a half century or more, except for Trott. On Day Three, the batsman set the record straight.
For a batsman who averaged more than 60 in Tests not too long ago, 2012 has been a bit of a disappointment, as Trott has made just one century with an average under 40 for the year. The England number three's figures also took a hit during a disastrous 3-0 loss to Pakistan in Abu Dhabi earlier in 2012.
So it was understandable that Trott would want to spend as much time out in the middle ahead of the Tests, especially after the previous practice game against Mumbai A saw the middle order batsman get out twice after making starts, for 28 and 30.
After bowling Haryana out for 334 in around 60 overs of the day, Trott walked out to open the innings along with Nick Compton. Trott remained unbeaten on 61 while regular opener Compton too made use of the 38 overs possible to register his second fifty in a row, to turn around a poor start to this tour which began with one run in two innings for him.
Scoring at a rate of 2.6 runs an over, the English batsmen struck 17 boundaries, all kept to the ground, as they spent quality time in the middle before the first Test match on November 15. It was only when both were near their half-centuries that the duo shifted gears and looked aggressive.

AMD Expands Home Networking Product Portfolio With Industry's First Homepna-Compliant Single-Chip Physical Layer Device
Provides Inexpensive Phoneline Connectivity For Peripheral Devices, Information Appliances
AMD today announced the HomePHY(TM) device, a single chip that enables PC peripheral and information appliance manufacturers to integrate support for the widely-endorsed Home Phoneline Networking Alliance (HomePNA) technology into their products. AMDs HomePHY device supports physical layer (PHY) functions for both HomePNA phoneline networking and the 802.3 standard for 10Mbps Ethernet networking. This dual PHY layer functionality enables a device such as a USB networking connector to offer support for either home phoneline or Ethernet networking in a single device.
The HomePHY device has been certified as compliant with HomePNA Specification 1.0 for phoneline networking and can be integrated into printers, scanners, set-top boxes, Web phones, residential gateways, cable modems, and other PC peripherals to enable phoneline connectivity. Integrating the HomePHY chip into peripheral devices expands the type of product capable of supporting home phoneline networking beyond the PC, creating new classes of home networking products and furthering the concept of the "Networked Home." AMD also announced today that Tut Systems plans to integrate the HomePHY into their Expresso family of products, and Peracom Networks, Inc., a supplier of peripheral connectivity and desktop networking solutions, plans to use the HomePHY device in future HomePNA-compliant products.
"The HomePHY device brings inexpensive HomePNA connectivity to a new class of products, expanding the power and utility of home networks beyond traditional PC-to-PC connections," said Dr. Laila Razouk, vice president of the Network Products Division at AMD. "AMD was the first to market with PCnet(TM)-Home, a fully integrated HomePNA PCI controller, back in December. Now, by introducing the industry's first HomePNA-compliant single-chip PHY, AMD is broadening its home networking portfolio and continuing to provide innovative products for easy-to-use phoneline networking solutions."
"The integration of AMD's chips in our Expresso products is one of the key factors to our success in the DSL and multiple-dwelling unit (MDU) markets," said Matt Taylor, founder and chief technology officer for Tut Systems. "With AMD's chips, Tut is able to deliver cost-effective, reliable, high-speed Internet access to our DSL and MDU customers that also has plug-and-play compatibility with HomePNA 1.0 phoneline networking products."
"By integrating AMDs HomePHY device into our USB Phoneline Adapter, Peracom delivers an easily installable USB solution for networking PCs or laptops in the home over existing phone lines," said Ken Rivage, vice president of Engineering at Peracom. "Home users are often reluctant to open their PCs case for fear of disrupting operation. Peracom is very excited to offer a solution that will allow a home user to network PCs in the house by attaching outside the PC via USB."

Do you ever find yourself wondering why MILFs are so great?
Unfortunately, your love of other mothers most likely harkens back to Oedipal urges buried deep within your subconscious…but we don't need to talk about that!
Let's put Freud aside and just agree that we're not being Oedipal and that some moms are just hot ladies who also happen to be mothers.
MILF is a term that gets tossed around a bit too liberally these days. Most of the time it's just used to describe an older looking woman, completely disregarding the "M" in the acronym. To be a MILF, you have to be a mother. Those are just the rules, so please try to abide by them.
Now that I have sufficiently bored you with the semantics of MILF-dom, allow me to present a leaked photo of the world's hottest MILF.

Kentucky Derby 2012: Closest Finishes in Kentucky Derby History
By Carlos Torres ,
The Kentucky Derby is the most anticipated race in thoroughbred racing.
It's the peak of all the care, preparation and dedication that the owners, trainers, handlers and jockeys have done with their horses for the previous two years.
All that time and energy spent for an adrenaline rush that lasts about two minutes. But it's all worth it.
There is no other feeling like watching and cheering for your favorite horse on the biggest race, at the most historic horse-racing stage the first Saturday in May.
In four days, we will all be watching the Run for the Roses and the only thing that can top your favorite horse's win is a photo-finish win.
The idea of a mano-a-mano down the home stretch culminating in a full extension, all-out head-bopping finish in the Kentucky Derby, is a thoroughbred racing fan's dream.
There have been such close finishes throughout Derby history. In fact, 13 Derby races have been decided by a neck or less.
Let's take a look at those heart-pumping finishes.
May 11, 1912 (38th running)
Worth was the heavy favorite (.80/1) and was hustled to the lead by his jockey, Carroll Schilling.
He was still the leader at the third call when Duval (20/1), who was running fourth, moved to second place and started stalking Worth's pace.
Worth was still holding a one-length lead as the entered the home stretch, but started tiring in the final half-furlong and was able to hold off Duval's final rally.
Final Time: 2:09.4
May 2, 1964 (90th running)
The legendary Northern Dancer was the second betting choice (3.40/1) just below the favorite, Hill Rise (1.40/1).
It was also the battle of two legendary jockeys, Bill Hartack (Northern Dancer) and Bill Shoemaker (Hill Rise).
Northern Dancer was seventh early, just behind Hill Rise. He was saving ground until around the far turn, Hartack made a move and took him to the outside and to the lead.
Hill Rise was left behind horses and fell back to eight place.
As they headed for home, Northern Dancer was ahead by two lengths and Hill Rise started to chase him.
At the end, it was Hartack's left-handed whip urging that made Northern Dancer prevail over Hill Rise, who was fully extended under Shoemaker.
Final Time: 2:00 (New Track Record at the time)
May 3, 1969 (95th running)
Bill Hartack was at it again. He was the rider for the favorite, Majestic Prince (1.40/1).
Majestic Prince was fourth in the early going, while Arts and Letters was chasing the leader, Ocean Roar.
By the second call, Hartack moved Majestic Prince up to third and Arts and Letters fell right behind him in fourth place.
From there on, the chase began. As they turned for home, Majestic Prince was in front by a half-length and Arts and Letters insisted hard on his inside. Dike had moved up to third and was closing slowly on them.
At the end, Majestic Prince held by a neck over Arts and Letters and Dike finished just a half-length behind on the outside of both.
Final Time: 2:01.8
Winning Colors holds off Forty Niner's furious rally.
May 7, 1988 (114th running)
Winning Colors under Gary Stevens broke alertly from post position 11 and took the lead as expected.
Forty Niner also had a sharp start and prompted the pace at the first call. But jockey Pat Day took him back to fifth along the backstretch in order to make on final furious rally.
Winning Colors' lead grew up to four lengths during the backstretch, which allowed Stevens to relax her up front.
As they headed for home, Forty Niner was four lengths behind in fourth place but had started his final move.
At the end, Stevens was working hard with his left-handed whip and Winning Colors held by a neck for the win.
Final Time: 2:02.2
May 8, 1920 (46th running)
Paul Jones (16.20/1) was the surprising winner over the big favorite Upset (1.65/1).
Ted Rice put Paul Jones on the lead from the start and was on the third call that Upset placed in second to start his chase from two lengths behind.
As they entered the stretch, Upset was just a head behind and with a sixteenth to go, it looked like he would pass Paul Jones, but it was the latter who held on gamely for the win.
Upset was a tiring second-place finisher.
Final Time: 2:09
May 14, 1927 (53rd running)
Whiskery was fifth early while Osmand was placed second five lengths behind the leader Jock.
By the third call, Whiskery was third, a couple of lengths behind Osmand, and started to make his move on him. Osmand was still five lengths behind Jock but starting to chase him down.
As they turned for home, Osmand caught Jock and took the lead, while Whiskery was a third of a length behind, but in pursuit of Osmand.
With a sixteenth to go, Whiskery got even with Osmand and out-finished him to win by a head.
Final Time: 2:06
May 2, 1936 (62nd running)
Bold Venture (20.50/1) started the race in tight and fell back to eighth at the first call, with heavy favorite (.80/1) Brevity in ninth place right behind him.
Right there, jockey Ian Hanford started the chase and by the third call, Bold Venture was up front by a length. Brevity was sixth and starting his move to the front.
As they entered the home stretch, it was Bold Venture in front by a length over Brevity, who loomed large on his outside.
But by the end, Bold Venture held by a head under Hanford's strong urging to score the big upset win.
Final time: 2:03.6
May 3, 1947 (73rd running)
Jet Pilot (5.40/1) took the lead early and set the pace easily down the backstretch while the favorite Phalanx (2/1) was dead last on the first call after a sluggish start under jockey Eddie Arcaro.
Phalanx started to move by the half-mile and as they reached the home stretch, Phalanx was fifth, three lengths behind, and Faultless was third, just over one-and-a-half lengths behind.
During the stretch run, Phalanx was closing in fast, but as they got to the wire, it was Jet Pilot barely holding on by a head, while Faultless was third, just a head behind Phalanx.
Final time: 2:06.8
May 2, 1953 (79th running)
Dark Star took the lead early and established a swift pace down the back stretch.
The great Native Dancer, under jockey Eddie Guerin, encountered some heavy traffic problems around the first turn and was pushed back to eighth in the early going.
Once Guerin found running room around the far turn, he placed Native Dancer on the clear outside and started to make his move to the front.
When they entered the home stretch, Native Dancer was still one-and-a-half lengths behind, but gaining steady on the front-running Dark Horse.
But the wire came first and Native Dancer's rally fell one head short. It was the only defeat in the career of the great Native Dancer.
Final time: 2:02
Silver Charm shows the head up front of Captain Bodgit.
May 3, 1997 (132nd running)
Silver Charm under Gary Stevens was sixth in the early going and running in between horses.
As they entered the back stretch, Stevens moved Silver Charm to the clear and started to move on the leaders Pulpit and Free House.
When they entered the home stretch, it was Silver Charm taking the lead by a head over Free House. Captain Bodgit was ninth in the early going and had moved up to third just ahead a tiring Pulpit.
On the final furlong, it was Silver Charm outstretched, while Stevens was asking for everything his horse had left. He finally held on by a head at the wire over the surging rally of Captain Bodgit.
Final time: 2:02.44
May 6, 1933 (59th running)
Brokers Tip was off slowly from his 11th post position and jockey Don Meade took the horse immediately to the inside and started saving ground.
Jockey Herb Fisher placed Head Play in third place just behind the leaders Good Advice and Isaiah.
Down the back stretch, Head Play took the lead by the third call and Brokers Tip was closing in on fourth place, just 3.75 lengths behind Head Play.
When they entered the home stretch, Head Play's lead was a mere hair and the mano-a-mano was on.
After Head Play's interference, Brokers Tip put the nose ahead at the wire to win after the rough stretch run.
At the time it was the closest—and probably roughest—finish in Derby history.
Final time: 2:06.8
May 4, 1957 (83rd running)
This race is a classic that will forever be remembered in the Kentucky Derby archives. It included one of the most talented fields in Derby history, including racing greats Bold Ruler, Round Table and Gallant Man (GB).
Federal Hill and Iron Liege were also close contenders.
But this race will be remembered the most because jockey legend Bill Shoemaker, aboard Gallant Man (GB), misjudged the finish line and stood up too early in his stirrups.
This slowed Gallant Man's momentum and allowed for Iron Liege, who was under the heavy urging of another jockey legend Bill Hartack, to gain on him and pass him at the wire.
To date, this remains one of horse racing's biggest flops.
Round Table finished third, just over three lengths behind. Bold Ruler and Federal Hill rounded out the top five.
Final time: 2:02.2
Grindstone edged Cavonnier on the last jump.
May 4, 1996 (122nd running)
This finish was another instant classic.
Grindstone under Jerry Bailey was taken back to 15th in the first call, while Cavonnier, with Chris McCarron, was ninth and running on the clear.
As they started to round the far turn, Cavonnier was the first one to make a move and as he was rounding horses four-wide, Craig Perret, the jockey for Halo Sunshine, inadvertently struck Cavonnier's head with his whip.
This slowed Cavonnier's move for a second but was able to keep his momentum going forward and Cavonnier took the lead at the top of the stretch by a head over Unbridled's Song.
Grindstone had moved into fourth place and was gaining ground steadily on the leaders while running on the fifth lane.
On the stretch, Grindstone was still running on the fifth lane and closed quickly enough to nip Cavonnier exactly on the final jump at the wire.
That was Grindstone's final act. Apparently the effort was too much for Grindstone, since he was retired shortly after the Derby when his trainer, D. Wayne Lukas, discovered knee chips in his leg.
Final time: 2:01.06

Fantastic for Gaming
Member Name: mannaroth
Date: 09/02/13
Advantages: Full HD Resolution
Disadvantages: None!
LG are well known for their excellent range of monitors. They look stylish and sleek, they're simple to use and when turned on they look fantastic.
This monitor supports the 1920 x 1080 resolution, which is standard for full HD 1080p viewing. That means that for playing games or watching HD movies, you don't get better than this. The sheer detail and sharpness of the images are fantastic. It has support for all necessary screen refresh rates, has an incredibly great response time and sharpness, as well as supporting matte black.
It has support for wall-mounting or use with other monitor mounts.
In terms of connections, it supports HDMI, VGA and DVI input - which means that no matter WHAT device you want to connect it to, it will be supported - something that very few monitors take the time to do.
All this for £100, you're really getting a fantastic deal here. I couldn't be happier with a pair of these connected to my gaming pc.
Summary: Couldn't be happier.

Probably the best thing i could do at this point is to start collecting data like you recommended. thanks anyway for your feedback

Vit B-1 is very valuable for mental stresses. I take 250-500mg daily. Take an equal of Vit C to avoid tooth brittleness. The tablets are pretty large but can be split into 1/2's or 1/4's. Works well for me.

Recommended by my doctor for leg cramps. I cannot tell you enough about this product. Since I have been taking these 3 times a day for quite a while I do not have leg cramps. If on really hot days and I do too much and sweat a lot I will sometimes need to take an extra tablet, and the leg cramps are gone. No sleepless nights walking the floors anymore. I recommend them to anyone I talk to that has leg cramps and cannot get quinine anymore.

Good quality, high dosage of B-1 and magnesium with no additional vitamins. If you're avoiding b-6, you can take this product. Vegetarian as all Source Naturals products. Pills are compressed, not capsules, and pretty large, which could be a problem for some, but I haven't had any trouble personally.

Mississippi Senate Approves Bill To Expand Charter Schools
JACKSON — A bill to expand charter schools in Mississippi has easily cleared the Senate, and attention shifts to the House for the second year.
In a 31-17 vote, the bill had two Democratic supporters but no Republican opponents. The vote came after more than three hours of debate and a day after Senate Bill 2189 was introduced and passed by the Senate Education Committee.
Charter schools are public schools that agree to meet certain standards in exchange for freedom from regulations. Mississippi has a charter school law that allows a small number of existing schools to convert to charters, but none have done so.

Last edited by Halfspin; 06-21-2013 at 11:59 AM.. Reason: clarity |
Either way, they started helping the needy under a particular set of rules they agreed with. If NYC wants to then change said rules to make them act in a manner they consider immoral, I can't fault them for refusing. |
And in 2004, in response to a City Council ordinance requiring that organizations with city contracts offer benefits to gay employees' partners, the Salvation Army threatened to stop operating in New York City
Am I reading that whole "organizations with city contracts" wrong? I do admit, I'm assuming this means the City is paying them to provide a service. If it means operating as a 501(c)3 in general, then my stance will probably be different. "Oh I can't help quoting you, 'cos everything that you said rings true"
I guess I just don't get how people can't see why creating a moral obstical to helping others is a bad thing? I get that some might think, "Well the virtue of helping someone out of the goodness of ones heart should trump the perceived sin one envisions occurring when they do something they believe to be immoral.", but I don't see how they think they have the ability to know the inner workings of others when they have to make that decision. |
The city had 3 choices: make an exception to the rule so that the contract contract with the SA will go through, eliminate the program completely, or find another organization to do business with. They chose the one they thought would best meet the needs of the city. I think it is safe to assume that, because the city chose the first, there is not another group that is able and willing to provide the same services at the same cost while still providing same-sex benefits. When a group like that comes along, the city can switch. Until then, the SA has the power to negotiate contracts in their favor. I suggest that everyone who finds the SA so terrible should band together and form a charity that can compete for the city contract. Competition will remove much of the SA's negotiating power. |
The SA had three choices also 1) walk away from any city contracts and continue other operations in NYC 2) make an exception 3) threaten to quit NYC completely I can totally understand them not wanting to accept (2.) What I don't understand is why they threw a hissy-fit and picked 3. It's like a 5 year old threatening to take his soccer ball home because he can't be the star striker. |
They are not asking for special treatment. It is more like a 5 year old threatening to leave because he's being harassed by bullies and told he can only play if he/she stays in the corner of the field. |
I think it's a different situation when they start bidding for City contracts and then demanding exemptions from the rules that presumably every other bidder agreed to abide with. That is not a level playing field. In the case of the City ordinance, they clearly did ask for - and ultimately receive - special treatment. |
Are you saying they tried to change things in the middle of an existing contract? |
Would you consider that a reasonable grievance? |
Yes, we could imagine an organization for which the continued treatment of a few people as second-class citizens is more important than the continuation of what is supposedly their core mission. Apparently one interpretation of an ambiguous passage in the Old Testament is more important than all that stuff Jesus is supposed to have said. You know, if we are just imagining things, that is. Of course, we don't really have to imagine that there is an organization for which the license to hate trumps the opportunity to serve, when we have such an example on plain display. I'd like to see the SA explain to a hungry, homeless man that they aren't going to feed him today because it's more important that a gay employee's partner not be allowed to buy into the group policy. Last edited by skiman; 06-22-2013 at 07:47 PM.. TIP: To avoid the stigma of literacy, listen to audio books.
Which in a round about way, is true. |
Since the hissy-fit and #3 got them what they wanted, it is very clear why they chose that option. Last edited by TheWoman; 06-22-2013 at 10:18 PM.. |

Free standard shipping on full-size orders $50+
I've never tried a peel before, so I don't have much to go on but this product was awesome! Love how smooth it made my skin feel!
I was skeptical....and a little unsure how to use this product. After reading the directions and giving it a shot, I actually like it. I have had issues with some very dry patches of skin due to adult acne treatment, and this product did wonders to exfoliate those very rough areas.
I thought that this foam peel was ok and certainly not worth spending $75 for when there are other products out there that I feel work better and are less expensive. I do like the natural scent and the way it feels on my skin.
Enjoyed using this product. Really does refresh my skin and makes it feel clean and smooth.
My face felt very soft and smooth after using this. At first glance I was disappointed in this sample size, but after using it, and smelling it, I no longer wish for more.
The product works as described, but not more-or-less so than other similar products I already use.
I really liked the Sampar Foam Peel and how it made my skin feel. I do not have sensitive skin so when I used this product I was not worried about my skin. I loved how it worked on my skin and afterwards made my skin feel so soft. The only thing that I did not like was the price at $75 which is a little steep in my books. So here I like a product but the price is a little pricey so not sure what I will do about this situation.
I tried this on half of my face since I have sensitive skin. Although it did exfoliate well, it left my skin slightly pink and tender afterwards. I don't think it was effective enough to warrant the irritation.
I liked this... it smelled nice, and it definitely gave me a glow after using it! Just wish the sample was a little bigger.
I really liked this! It made my skin feel smooth and clean and it appears to be getting less red.
