Everything was irie, mon, as the parents, board members and supporters of Rosarian Academy spent an evening in the islands.
Party in Paradise — Changes in Latitude, Changes in Attitude, the school's 32nd annual dinner and auction, took place Nov. 13 at The Breakers.
The evening began with cheeseburgers in paradise and mango margaritas, plus a silent auction featuring "A Night at the Stock" sleepover for 10 in the Lester N. Stockard Athletic Building and a Vespa Gran Turismo scooter.
After cocktails, guests moved to the Venetian Ballroom for dinner, a live auction — including a Global Electric Motor car won by Mary and Mark Freitas, who will have to find room in the garage between the Bentley and the Maserati; and luxury box-seat tickets to the sold-out Lady Gaga concert, won by Eliezer and Shafali Hernandez — and dancing.
Nancy Becerra and Donna White were chairwomen for the dinner auction. Jack and Cathy Flagg were honorary chairman and honorary chairwoman.
More than 220 people attended, including Laz Bacerra, Wil White, Paula and Mark Cook, Kelly and Danielle Hickox Moore, Margi and Michael Picotte, Don and Marla Fountain, Jason and Nicole Guari, John and Celeste Cassidy, Shaun and Jessica McGruder, Michael and Diana Perry, John and Carol Fulton, Beau and Jackie Breckenridge, and Tom and Keller Lanahan.
Proceeds benefit the scholarship, curriculum and facilities development funds for Rosarian Academy. Founded in 1925, Rosarian is an independent school sponsored by the Adrian Dominican Sisters. Its primary mission is to instill a "foundation for life" in every student.

text: One cold and bright winter day with the sky unusually clear, four shadows appeared over the land called Dread, Evil, Death and Fear. Behind them followed darkness absorbing the light of day, and there were very few people, who dared to stand in their way. Too many have asked for their help in trying to prove they were strong, maybe coming face to face with them will convince them they were wrong. We have to come together to make this conflict cease, and to counteract these shadows with Hope, Freedom, Love and Peace.

Sasha's Portrait : The Art of Submission
Sasha Wells has just finished masturbating on the beach when she sees a car crash against a telephone pole. Rescuing the driver, she helps him to her nearby cottage where he passes out. Having been caught in a downpour, she divests him of his clothes and can't resist the temptation of his hard cock. He awakens to see a strange woman masturbating in front of him. Sasha's visitor is Derrick Owen Matthews, better known as the renowned artist of erotic art as DOM. Derrick soon discovers that his sexy hostess is the owner and curator of a Nantucket gallery where he'll be doing his next showing.
As a lifestyle Dom, Derrick wastes no time punishing Sasha for the liberties she's taken. And while mortified, the woman becomes like putty in the man's skillful hands. Having stumbled on the woman's secret desire for domination, Derrick readily takes charge. He makes her masturbate for him, then punishes her for coming without permission. He introduces her to deep throating, double dildos, nipple clamps, risky outdoor sex, raunchy exhibitionism in a strip club, and so more. While the needy Sasha repeatedly denies her desire to be completely dominated, Derrick is determined to prove her wrong. While Sasha dives into Derrick's world, she fears she's falling in love...this could be a big mistake. Is Derrick even capable of settling for just one woman? Could she ever be more to him that just another well-trained sub?
Once again BJ Wane weaves a sizzling D/s spanking story that features lots of bare bottom and OTK punishment, paddles, floggers, humiliation, as well scintillating sex scenes, including oral, anal, lesbian and semi-public sex.

Excerpt from Sasha's Portrait by BJ Wane
"Why do you wear such ugly clothes?" Derrick asked before taking another big bite of pizza.
Sasha frowned, looking down at her usual attire for around the house. Shrugging, she replied, "They're comfortable. It's not like I have to please anyone. I do live alone."
"You did. For the next few days, you have to please me, and it would please me to have you naked, or near naked, when we're here."
Her eyes widened in shock and arousal. "I can't just sit around naked!"
"Why not?"
"Well," she floundered, wondering what to say.
Derrick chuckled at her dilemma. "See, there's no reason why not. You don't have a bra or panties on. Is that because you like the feel of the soft cloth against your pussy and your nipples or because it makes it easier to touch yourself whenever the urge strikes?" At her vivid flush, Derrick knew he had hit it right on the button.
Sasha wasn't so sure she liked the way he could peg her so easily especially after only knowing her a few hours. Of course, in those few hours, she had jacked him off, masturbated in front of him, and allowed him to spank her naked ass. The fact was that was exactly why she wore such loose clothing with nothing underneath. She loved touching herself, bringing herself to orgasm. Or maybe it was just that she loved to come and getting herself off was her only respite. Until now.
Sasha refused to answer him, swallowing her last bite of pizza down a throat suddenly gone dry.
"I'll take it by your silence that I'm right. When you become my sub, though, I'll expect an answer when I ask you something."
"I'm not becoming your sub, I told you that." Just the thought of allowing him complete control over her terrified her. She was too ignorant about such matters to be able to fit into that part of his world. Reading about submitting and actually doing it were two different things, even if she did have to admit that the reality of being spanked was far better than she could have imagined.
"Well, certainly not anytime soon. Right now, we'll settle for some tutoring." Rising from the table, he took her hand and led her into the living room. Stopping in front of the sofa, his hands went to the hem of her shirt, and he slowly lifted it over her head, his eyes never leaving hers.
"Don't you want to go into the bedroom?" Sasha asked, resisting the urge to cover her breasts.
"Eventually," he replied as he skimmed her loose shorts down her long, lean legs. "Right now, I want you to sit on the couch, brace your feet on the table here, legs spread as wide as you can. I want to watch you masturbate for me again."
Sasha sat down, excited about doing as he asked. She recalled the way he had watched her earlier, his eyes glued to her pussy as she came, and remembered how much it had turned her on to have an audience.
Derrick moved across from her, sitting in a wide, stuffed chair. He had an excellent view of her pussy as she spread her legs. "Scoot down more towards the edge. I can see more that way."
Sasha thought her heart would explode it was beating so rapidly. She was slouched now, having moved to the edge as he directed, her legs splayed wide. The cool air on her heated flesh felt arousing, as did the look in his grey eyes as they stared at her spread folds.
Derrick smiled to himself. She hadn't touched herself yet. She didn't even realize she was waiting for his instructions to proceed. "Use your thumbs first to spread your lips for me. I want to see all that pretty, wet pink flesh."
Sasha averted her eyes, too embarrassed to look at him as she did as instructed. Holding herself open, she waited for further instructions.
"Look at me," he commanded after a few seconds. When she raised timid, blue eyes to his, he damn near came in his jeans. She couldn't hide the fact that she was totally aroused even though she was unsure of herself. Her cunt was so wet that her cream was seeping out. "Finger yourself with one hand while you play with your nipples with the other. Go slow; I don't want you to come too soon. Watch me while you fuck yourself."
Sasha was afraid she would come the minute she touched her clit; she was so turned on. Her eyes on his, she slowly inserted two fingers between her damp folds, feeling her walls contract around them, her wetness coating them. Her other hand went to her breast, cupping it; her finger and thumb pulling on the nipple tautly. The combined stimulation had her quickly panting; her skin lightly coated with a sheen of sweat as she continued to pleasure herself.
When Derrick opened his jeans and released his huge, hard cock into his hand, she damn near exploded right then. She couldn't believe how much it excited her watching him fondle his cock; his large hand moving slowly up and down the length before moving lower and cupping his balls. Her fingers moved faster, and her breathing grew heavier at the erotic sight.
"Slow down, Sasha," Derrick said. "Do you enjoy watching me touch myself?"
Sasha nodded her head. "Yes."
"I enjoy watching you also." His hand moved back up his length, covering the seeping head and then moved back down as she thrust her fingers knuckle deep, over and over; her thumb rubbing her clit back and forth, and her fingers pulling her nipples.
When she threw her head back, her hips arching into her marauding hand, he knew she had come hard and fast. He watched her jerk against her hand, drank in her cries of release, and ejaculated to the sight of those wet fingers bringing herself pleasure. It was obvious she wasn't a novice to masturbation and enjoyed pleasuring herself. Her nipples were red and pointed from pinching them so hard. He wondered if she knew the significance of that. He doubted it, but he did. She enjoyed that little bite of pain. It added to her pleasure as nothing else could. He was really going to enjoy broadening her horizons.
Rising, he adjusted his jeans, slipped off his shirt, and laid it on the chair. Sasha watched him warily as he approached her; her hand still moving lightly over her pussy. He watched her fingers run over her spread folds, rubbing her wetness along the outside of her pussy. "You like touching yourself."
"Yes." She saw no reason to deny what was obvious.
Sitting down next to her, Derrick lifted her onto his lap sideways. "My turn to play a while." Picking up the remote, he turned on the television and flipped through the stations until he came upon an action movie he had already seen but liked well enough to watch again. Derrick sat with her in his lap, his arm around her waist. After about ten minutes, she started shifting and wiggling impatiently, and he smiled to himself.
Sasha was frustrated. Here she was, completely naked with a man for the first time in three years, and he wanted to watch television. She wondered what he was waiting for; and, finally, she didn't care. His jean clad thigh was hard beneath her bare ass, his shoulder was hard beneath her head, and his waist was hard beneath her arm. She wanted to feel all that hardness against her, over her, and under her, and she wanted that large, hard cock filling her emptiness.
"Derrick," she finally moaned, feeling his cock now poking her buttocks through his jeans.
Derrick reached up and pinched her nipple, hard. "Hush," he admonished her. "I'm trying to watch this."
That pinch on her nipple was enough to get her going again, building her need for another orgasm. Spreading her legs, she decided to take matters into her own hands, again, since he was intent on ignoring her. His deep voice stopped her as she was reaching between her legs.
"No, Sasha, not this time." Grabbing her hands, he pulled them behind her back and quickly had her over his knees; one hand holding her wrists pinned together, and the other smacking her buttocks. "I didn't tell you to touch yourself. I think you did that just so you could get your ass spanked again," he said as he brought his hand down hard and fast, ignoring her pleas and whimpering.
Sasha realized two things simultaneously. He had goaded her until she ended up in her current position, and she loved the feel of his hard hand smacking her tender globes, loved the fiery pain that left her breathless with the need to come. Jerking her hips against his hard thigh, she cried out as she came, surprised at how quickly it burst upon her and how intense her orgasm was. The spasms went on and on, as did his punishing hand; and, by the time she was reduced to small tremors, she lay docilely over his lap, completely sated.
Derrick lifted her upright, releasing her wrists. His hand grabbed her behind her head and pulled her face down to his. His breathing was harsh as his lips claimed hers in a hard kiss; his tongue invading her mouth and ruthlessly exploring every corner.
His mustache tickled, was all Sasha could think as he kissed her. She groaned, leaning into him as he continued to eat at her mouth, as she kissed him back with all the need and longing she was feeling. When his hand cupped her breast, his thumb rubbing the nipple, she arched into him as she grabbed his other hand and moved it between her spread thighs.
Derrick heaved a heavy sigh, pulling his lips back a fraction. "You didn't learn anything, did you?" he asked ruefully, his eyes amused. "Or is it that I didn't spank you long enough, hard enough?"
"I just want you to touch me. I want you to fuck me." She knew her voice revealed her desperation and that he heard it plainly. She felt stupid, inexperienced, and so damn needy she thought she'd scream.
Derrick inserted one finger into her pussy, surprised at how tight she was. "How long has it been since you've had a man's cock here?"
Shit, Sasha was afraid he was going to ask that. Hoping her answer didn't put him off, she said, "Three years."
"Damn, woman, no wonder you took me up on my offer so quickly. Why haven't you had sex in three years? Or is it just men you haven't had for that long? You prefer women?"
"What! Of course not." Sasha couldn't believe he'd suggested such a thing.
"Relax. It's not as if it would turn me off. I watch my subs with other women."
"I'm not your sub, and I'm not a lesbian," she said darkly, wondering what he found so amusing. She hoped it wasn't her naivet�.
"Mmmm, yes, well there's always a first time for everything. But, right now, I'd say it's way past time you got fucked. By a man."
Lifting her in his arms, he strode purposely down the hall to her bedroom where he dumped her unceremoniously on the bed. "Stay there. I'll be right back."
With a promise like that, Sasha wasn't about to go anywhere. Scooting up on the bed, she waited for him to return. She heard him in the bathroom and then making the rounds in her house, presumably locking up. Apparently, he didn't plan on any interruptions, which suited her just fine.
Derrick returned to her room and was in the process of shucking his jeans when her bookshelf caught his attention. Naked, he strolled over to it. Books of erotica filled the three short shelves, from suspense to paranormal to straight BDSM. Turning towards her, he smiled at her look of consternation.
Sasha watched him warily as he moved towards her, his hard cock in his hand, and a look of amusement on his face. She yelped when he grabbed her ankles and pulled her to the edge of the bed; his hands sliding up her legs to grasp her behind her knees.
As he knelt down and lifted her legs over his shoulders, his eyes remained on hers. "It's past time you started to live out some of those fantasies, don't you think?"
Sasha could only nod her head in silent agreement as he lowered his mouth to her pussy; his tongue swept through her moist slit like he was lapping up cream. Leaning on her elbows, she unashamedly watched him as he licked her again, and again; his grey eyes were on hers as he proceeded to give her more pleasure than she had ever known.
Derrick's thumbs went to her folds and spread them wide; his eyes lowering to her glistening pink flesh; his senses filling with the smell of her arousal. By the look of wonder and excitement in her pale blue eyes, he wondered if this was her first experience in oral sex. The thought excited him as he buried his tongue in her pussy and licked her sweet cream, his lips sucking, and his teeth nibbling her sensitive flesh.
Sasha gasped, threw her head back and jerked her hips against his mouth. She had never imagined how wonderful a mouth could feel on her pussy, a tongue licking her, lips eating at her, the painful heat of his teeth on her clit.
"Oh, God!" she cried out when he sucked on her clit; his mustache tickled her exposed walls as he continued to make a meal of her cunt.
Derrick moved his hands down to grip her buttocks as she thrust against his face; her uninhibited response made his cock ache to be buried inside the warm, wet channel he was sucking. As he felt her orgasm ripple and tasted the gush of her come on his tongue, he rose above her, shoved her spread knees to her chest, and rammed into her pulsing sheath.
Her orgasm gripped his cock as he shoved in and out of her tight cunt; her juices coated his hard member. "Watch," he commanded her, leaning back, his hands holding her knees back and spread wide.
Sasha looked down to where he surged in and out of her grasping cunt, breathing heavily from the strength of her orgasm, the sight of his wet cock as he pulled in and out of her spread lips thrilling her. He took her hard, rough and fast, and she loved every aching thrust. She collapsed as another orgasm erupted; her hands going to her breasts as her hips slammed against his. This wasn't lovemaking or even sex, it was fucking, and she loved every second of it.
Derrick felt her second orgasm, loved the sight of her hands squeezing her breasts, and the way her hips met his over and over as he fucked her. He probably should have gone easier on her, been a little more gentle due to her inexperience, but his nature was to take, to dominate, and remain in control. A control he wasn't sure he could maintain with this woman. He came in a heated rush; his come spewing deep inside her womb. He was thankful he had decided to give in to his curiosity and finally made this trip to meet Sasha face to face.

I'm almost to the ex-PC fan mode. This machine is awesome. Comparible in performance to my Toshiba Qosmio X505 at half the weight and with a better screen hosting WUXGA native. The battery under continuous usage is still functional 5 hours later. The hard drive performance lacks a bit at only 5400 rpm.
The Apple OS-X starts and stops in seconds versus minutes for the Windows 7 machines. Just shut the lid and it is sleeping before you can lift it off its perch.
Now to the lower rating point. A comparable laptop (i7/4GB/750@5400/1920x1080-NOT WUXGA) can be purchased for half the price and you will get twice the carry weight.
But as a final positive, Lion includes BootCamp which allow dual boot and I have a nice Win7 Ultimate box along with a spectacular OS-X machine. As an alternative VMware Fusion 4 is only $50 to add windows in VM that interacts directly with the OS-X
Yes, Macbook Pros are more expensive then PCs. You want to know why? It's because they are a perfect balance of power and efficiency. Not only can this handle everything I throw at it, but it has the ability to withstand punishment from a power user and maintain a fabulous battery life in the process. This computer only requires a 85W power adapter and can last a good 7 hours with moderate screen brightness. Apple doesn't put junk in their computers. Even if you get a base model it's still going to be far ahead of what you'd receive in a PC computer and it's going to last. This computer will maintain it's value for years to come and the components are so solid that I won't need to worry about anything going wrong and it will ALWAYS work. Yes, I'm still going to buy AppleCare for it. That's because I love Apple and don't mind giving them more of my money for my peace of mind. Do yourself a favor and get a real computer. Buy an Apple.
This is the last of the native-boot for Snow Leopard...which means being able to run older software relying on PPC encoding and needs to use 'Rosetta'. Also, no iOS built-in! ;-D Great machine and very versatile. I upgraded it to 16GB of memory and the new line of Seagate Momentus XT 750GB HD. Testing Win8 on it and it has not crashed at all. Crazy good machine for the 'less' money spent!
I'm an Apple fan and a Macbook Pro fan, so no surprises here. It's an amazing machine. It's fast as lightening with a SSD (and an extra 1TB drive for storage. (It's been customized) Mountain Lion runs nearly flawlessly as far as I can tell. I got the glossy screen because i love the way movies/videos look. It's got the now discontinued 17" screen. I am VERY disappointed that Apple has discontinued 17" screens for their Macbooks.. They look wonderful.
Great product and fast... the quad core is a great chip in the laptop and apple outdid themselves with this.

PadMapper makes apartment hunting less awful, almost fun. It does this by plotting the apartments on a big map, and letting you filter for exactly what you want. There are also neat overlays to help you learn about the different areas.
My goal with PadMapper is to make apartment hunting into something people no longer dread. It shouldn't have to be harder than buying a car. You shouldn't have to deal with slimy people. You shouldn't have to make big Excel spreadsheets to keep track of what you've seen and what you think. Landlords should respond to your emails, and once you move in, you should be treated well. I'm going to help make it that way.
I was looking for a place with some friends in NYC in the summer of 2008, and it ended up taking us 6 months. This was our first time, so we got scammed more than once by brokers and shady landlords.
In between scams, I sifted through thousands of Craigslist listings, and it was getting to the point where I was losing hope. It was like wading through my spam folder trying to find real emails. I'd click and read each listing, only to find out that it was in a bad location, or it looked like a slum, or there was a toilet in the kitchen, or it was too "cozy" to fit a double bed.
So, I ended up writing what became the first version of PadMapper to do most of the sifting for me and generally make the hunt better. I've used it and the iPhone app in 3 apartment hunts since then, and it has found me a place quickly each time.
I hope it helps you and your friends find a great place to live. Good luck with your hunt!
If there's anything that confuses you, or you see any bugs, please email me at firstname.lastname@example.com. Feedback really helps - user feedback is the reason PadMapper is what it is today.
If you'd like more information, check out the blog. Here's a text-based browsing alternative (though it's more cumbersome): Sitemap

By achieving the double of Bradley Wiggins and Chris Froome finishing first and second in the final time trial – and having Richie Porte in fifth place – Sky Procycling brings to a resounding victory for the team in the race against the clock from Bonneval to Chartres, which is the absolute litmus test of the Tour de France.
The advantage of 6'01" over Omega Pharma-Quick Step say a lot about the British team's superiority. RadioShack-Nissan, lost 8'03", in the general rankings but maintains its leadership, which was reduced drastically in one day, but the advantage of the squad directed by Alain Gallopin and Dirk De Mol will make another podium appearance on the final Sunday of the race on the Champs-Elysées.

Some species, such as ostriches, penguins and kakapos, have lost the power of flight. All birds reproduce by laying eggs.

Anki Drive Teardown
Teardowns provide a look inside a device and should not be used as disassembly instructions.
Featured Guide
This guide has been found to be exceptionally cool by the iFixit staff.
We've been itching to get our hands on the Anki Drive system since it was first unveiled at Apple's WWDC. Now that it's finally rolled in, it feels like Christmas morning at iFixit, with itty bitty plastic cars zipping overland and underfoot. But as much as we'd like to keep reenacting our favorite scenes from The Fast and the Furious films, it's time to find out what lies under those tiny robotic hoods.
Looking for the inside track on iFixit? Enjoy our drive-thru Instagram, park it on our Facebook page, or race on over to our Twitter feed.
Edit Step 1 — Anki Drive Teardown ¶
Anki is a tech startup aiming to bring artificial intelligence and adaptability to objects in the physical world. Their first offering to the masses: Anki Drive.
The starter kit we laid hands on contains the following:
Two Intelligent Cars
Two Charging Cases
Fast Charger
3.5' x 8.5' Race Mat
Tire Cleaning Pad
We had to dig into the Tips menu of the accompanying iOS app, but we finally discovered our gooey stamp pad is for cleaning tires. It removes dust from the wheels, improving handling and teardown photos.
Edit Step 3 ¶
With no special hardware in the track, and only a rudimentary image sensor and microcontroller in the car, just how does Anki Drive work?
Looking closely at the track, we found its surface is covered in tiny ridges of varied patterns.
With unique patterns along the track, the Anki car can read a single mark and know exactly where it is—then read a second and know where it's going, and at what speed.
As excited as we are for a car that can drive by Braille, we worry that new dents (caused by an ill-placed foot or overexcited dog) might confuse the racers' sensors.
Edit Step 4 ¶
The Anki Drive starter kit includes two cars equipped with optical sensors, wireless chips, and motors.
Not a lot of processing happens in the Anki car itself—a base station iPhone or iPad running the Anki app interprets data, plans out the car's strategy, and sends control information back.
The cars come with heavy-duty plastic cases that double as charging cradles, connecting via micro-USB to the Fast Charger.
According to Anki, a full charge takes 8 to 10 minutes and provides 20 minutes of high-speed action.
Edit Step 6 ¶
With all of the fancy processing tasks offloaded to your iDevice, the Anki car needs very little to survive in the wild.
After desoldering the dual motors' leads, the motherboard lifts easily out of the chassis, bringing all of the sensory, communication, and control circuitry out with it.
It even hosts two gear guides to keep the drive gears aligned to their motors, making this motherboard a true multitasker.
Edit Step 7 ¶
This little guy reads its position hundreds of times per second; we must figure out how!
The likely suspect seems to be hiding behind a light guide/lens assembly. We brought it in for questioning.
The lens/guide unit is anchored by two plastic fasteners. They may be lightweight, but the removal process limits their future fastening ability.
The infrared light from an LED is channeled through the light guide to illuminate the track, allowing the imaging sensor to read the patterns as they whiz by the lens—a lot like an optical mouse.
Edit Step 9 ¶
With the help of a spudger, we remove the motors from this zippy little guy, leaving him … unzipped.
Twin motors help the rear wheels do double duty, providing both propulsion and some surprisingly snappy steering.
With its motors hanging way out back of the rear axle, this little Ankimobile definitely hails from the controversial Porsche 911 school of car design.
The front wheels' only job is to not fall off. (It's always the little things.)
Edit Step 10 ¶
There isn't much inside the Anki Drive, so we make sure to pull out every little component.
To be thorough, we remove the light guide and 7.1 grams of various weights, used to keep the cars from flying off the track.
Here's hoping future editions allow the cars to be thrown from the track when shot with the pulse carbine … resulting in fiery explosions!
Sadly, we suspect exploding toy cars might not pass CPSC muster.
Edit Step 11 ¶
Anki Drive Repairability Score: 8 out of 10 (10 is easiest to repair)
The device contains only three screws, all non-proprietary. Removing a single screw frees the chassis.
There's no adhesive to obstruct repairs. In fact, the only adhesive to be found is a light foam tape that helps secure the battery.
The battery and motors are soldered to the motherboard, requiring specialized repair knowledge.
The track is hefty but easy to dent. While unconfirmed, this may lead to future usability issues.
The wheels and drive gears appear to be glued and/or riveted in and non-replaceable.
Comments Comments are onturn off
In step 6, could have the black plastic pieces to guide the gears any wiring?
Could read the gears movement like the old mechanical mouses?
Has more sense to control the movement of the drives...
I agree, look like photo interrupters to measure the speed

Exclusive Investments: High Risk And Reward
Have you heard of hedge funds but aren't sure exactly what they are and how they operate? I'll take you through the basics, so you have a better understanding of how a hedge fund attempts to make money, regardless of how the actual market is performing.
What is a hedge fund?A hedge fund is an investment fund that is carefully and assertively managed and uses sophisticated strategies to make money for its investors. Hedge funds are usually open to investment from a small number of participants, and often the minimum investment can be rather steep. They are not a liquid investment, as many require money to be kept in the fund for up to a year. Sometimes the owners and managers put their own money into the fund, which is said to keep it better positioned to protect their interest, with their vast financial knowledge and commitment to success. What does a hedge fund do?Hedge funds pool investors' money and use it to -- among other things -- invest in a wide variety of derivatives, trade options, bonds or futures, take both long and short positions and basically look to quell volatility and deliver positive results for their clients no matter what the markets are doing. As the name suggests, hedge funds seek to protect themselves from higher risk in the daily market fluctuations by hedging their bets, so to speak. Their focus can be quite narrow or quite broad, and lack of regulations on how they perform leaves it up to the people at the top to figure how best to make money for the funds' investors. While the individual investor in a hedge fund is usually someone in a good financial position (you have to meet financial requirements as stated by the fund and provide paperwork), many institutions such as banks, pensions and insurance companies also put money in various hedge funds. Because they can invest in anything they choose (a UK hedge fund focusing on sports gambling folded earlier this year after losing $2.5 million in investments) it pays (no pun intended) to know and trust the people behind the fund you plan to place your money with. Some people are comfortable with the attitude "I give you the money and I trust you to make the investment calls," while others want to know more about where their money is going. Unfortunately, one way you might have heard of hedge funds is through the news of a few of their more infamous managers, including Raj Rajaratnam, who was convicted of insider trading, received 11 years in prison in New York and was fined $10 million. Another example is Joseph "Chip" Skowron, an orthopedic surgeon turned hedge fund manager. He made a fortune with his medical knowledge, trading health care stocks, then wound up in jail for insider trading involving the confidential results of clinical drug trials. Hedge funds are a breed of their own and may offer rewards accordingly. Each and every investment involves risk and the level of reward can depend on the news of the day, be it good or bad. Be warned. More financial tipsTop 5 financial resolutions to make this year

The Tigers are coming off of a disappointing 18-32 mark in year one competing in the SEC. The team's first-ever trip to the SEC Tournament closed out the season as Mizzou lost in a 17-inning marathon to eventual College World Series finalist Mississippi State, 2-1, in Hoover. In all, the Tigers finished 12th in the SEC last season. Do-it-all utility man Keaton Steele was named to the All-SEC First Team and freshman Josh Lester was an All-SEC Freshman Team selection.

The Bills today announced that the team has released RB Tashard Choice. Through the first 12 games of the season, the 29 year old had been a third option behind top runners Fred Jackson and C.J. Spiller. He rushed 35 times for 126 yards, while adding four catches for 10 yards.
Choice first joined the Bills during the 2011 season under then-head coach Chan Gailey, who had coached Choice at Georgia Tech. The Bills re-signed Choice to a one-year deal in March.

I know it's her body, but yeah, I'm going to judge her.

Everyone has different pain tolerances. A foot tattoo might be painful for some but not others. Also the tattoo really isn't that big. The tattoo means something to her and thats all that matters. Its her body and she can do whatever she wants to it. Who cares if u think it's a bad decision.
2 years
I think that's sweet and I love tattoos that mean something...disclaimer: getting a boyfriend/girlfriend's (even husbands/wives) name is a silly risk IMO but whatever...the top of the foot did hurt, not sure about the side but that wouldn't have taken more than 7 min

I have a tattoo on my wrist for my dog that I had for 12 years and I had her since she was 2 months old. I miss her so much. I feel that its not ridiculous at all. People get tattoos for marilyn and elvis, why would a beloved dog be so outrageous?
2 years
I think it's sweet. She had the dog for 15+ years and he obviously meant a lot to her. People are always getting tattoos that are weird and have no real meaning, so I like this one.
2 years
Love her and I always see her movies, but I have to agree with cupcakeemmi, that's weird. She's not really making very good decisions lately.
2 years
I don't know what it feels like to love and lose a pet so I really can't say anything about this other than that is a HUGE tattoo for a dog.

donniepass 5pts how do you swich the meter off and don't say press the on off button that does not work
BJRALPH68 5pts Their names are not AL, but rather AI. That stands for artificial intelligence. When there are not enough real people playing, you are playing against the computer. How the AI's play is programmed into the computer and is pretty consistent. Normally if they check after the flop, for example, they have nothing and will fold if you bet. If the AI's bet big, they normally have a big hand and you will get beat
eahamm 5pts why is every one named AL all the players are the same whyWHYWHY your game so riged whar wrong with u r u stupid or what fix it or take it off stupid
eahamm 5pts why do i halve a meatter 2 tell me how 2 play dont like it and every one is named AL r thay all the same player dont like that eathear somthing is not right its like the deack is stacked aginst you from the start game is fixed dont like it is theare no othear players out ther why dose this happond
BJRALPH68 5pts After playing for three weeks, game suddenly will not load after the ad runs. You all need to fix it
John_Hartigan 5pts Okay so i enter the 8pm tourney, 26/02/2014, it's called Splash The Cash, it runs a massive 1 hour and 45 minutes, finishes at just over 9.45pm, i check the results and it says wingedwheel won, well he or she didn't win because i did, i think this may be a program glitch when tournaments overrun their schedule and last longer than anticipated., perhaps you can get the programmers to fix that and also get them to give me much better cards.....thanks.
gayjjwhite 5pts i won 16,250 dollars in an tournament and the money was never put in my account......................................................................................................
KarenCrowell12 5pts I still keep getting kicked off when the ad comes on, it doesn't count down. You should either fix this glich or get rid of the ads!
KarenCrowell12 5pts Ever since I reached Tier 100, I have done nothing but lose. It seems that once you reach that level,the hands are just crappy, consistently. I've played different tables, different table amounts, nthing changes, I'm mean for weeks! The law of averages says you have to win some, but it seems that once you get to that Tier all you've built up starts disappering. I really am beginning to wonder if that isn't planned. I've only seen one other Tier 100 in the 25-50 table and the same thing is happening to him.
MJ mollyjo26 5pts I WENT TO PLAY VEGAS POKER AND THEY HAD ME AS A MALE I HIT THE WRONG BUTTON AND HOW DO I CHANGE IT
masquekevinj 5pts For some exciting poker action, be sure to drop in to try our hourly Multi-table tournaments!
pondlilly1 5pts do you have to play at the level of betting that the game puts you on? can i choose like a 400 call instead of starting at a 1000
fourxgal 5pts read the comments. people seem to forget the nature of the game. find it realistic, fast and enjoyable, win or lose. great game guys
KarenCrowell12 5pts What I don't understand, some players consistently get high cards, while others get low cards all the time. I mean like 10 or more times in a row, whereas others constantly get pairs and others don't get even a pair on the board. It seems there should be a way to change where you sit if some seats are more prone to high cards or pairs. Does this make sence?
MJ mollyjo26 5pts How can you find others you want to play with? Some of us like to be at the same table, is this possible?
vampireosborn 5pts yes it spoils the game all in muppits like riverrat53 shep time they where binned of the game
masquekevinj 5pts @eahamm The suffix AI (not AL) indicates the player is a computer. When a table doesn't have enough players, computer players will join in to make the game playable (you can't play poker by yourself). For the most part, if you click PLAY NOW instead of choosing a table, you'll be placed at a table with other human players rather than computer opponents.
Pokermad1 5pts @eahamm when you get to the point it ask,s you which table click on then look how many players on each table you need at least 4 or you play AL,S
masquekevinj 5pts @John_Hartigan We're investigating -- the tool that tracks tournaments ending is occasionally getting stuck thinking there are still players in the event.
masquekevinj 5pts @gayjjwhite Contact email@example.com and we'll investigate further. Be sure to include the time and date of the tournament.
masquekevinj 5pts @KarenCrowell12 We've asked AOL to take a look. They are responsible for serving the ads. You may also want to try using a different browser to see if that changes the behavior for you. We recommend the latest versions of Google Chrome, Safari, Firefox, or Internet Explorer 11.

masquekevinj 5pts @KarenCrowell12 Hi Karen. We can 100% guarantee that the game doesn't play any shenanigans. The part of the game that deals with dealing hands knows absolutely nothing about your tier. Our goal is to make the game as authentic as possible, so streaks (winning and losing) are inevitable.
masquekevinj 5pts @MJ mollyjo26 In World Class Poker, click on your picture at the top right of the game menu bar. Then click the gear icon next to your picture to choose a new one.
masquekevinj 5pts @margaret.crawson Think of it as a present. If we told you when you'd get it, that would take away all the anticipation!
masquekevinj 5pts @pondlilly1 It seems that way in a real poker game, too, but it's just luck and skill.
masquekevinj 5pts @pondlilly1 Clicking PLAY NOW automatically selects a table based on your level and bankroll. If you want to play at lower stakes, you can use the "Choose Table" button to select a table with different stakes.
masquekevinj 5pts @KarenCrowell12 You can find the rules for Omaha under the (?) icon when you are seated at an Omaha table and also various places on the internet.
masquekevinj 5pts @KarenCrowell12 It's human nature to "see" patterns in random card deals, but over the long haul there really isn't one seat that is better than another with regard to the deal. There are better seats when you take into consideration chip stacks and betting (such as being to the right of the big stack in a tourney). If you don't like your seat in a ring (non-tourney) game, you can always change tables by going back to the main menu.
masquekevinj 5pts @MJ mollyjo26 Sure! Instead of clicking PLAY NOW on the main menu, select the Choose a Table feature and search for your friends by name. You can then join them at their table.
masquekevinj 5pts @MJ mollyjo26 You can find the rules for Texas Hold'em under the (?) icon and also various places on the internet. If you're playing Limit, you have restrictions on when you can raise. For No Limit, you can raise as much as you want (up to going All In).
masquekevinj 5pts @Charlesohflo You can click on the chips in the game menu bar to buy more chips right away, or watch the scratch ticket timer on the menu bar near the top of the game. When it goes to 0:00, your next scratch ticket is ready and will award you more chips! NOTE: You can't purchase more tourney chips -- our tourneys don't currently allow players to "Re-buy". But you can join a new tourney where you'll get a fresh set of tourney chips.

NBA Finals 2011: 5 Defensive Adjustments the Dallas Mavericks Need to Make
By Joseph Fafinski ,
The Miami Heat defeated the Dallas Mavericks last night in a hard-fought contest that was wire-to-wire for the first 30 minutes or so.
However, the Mavericks let loose on defense at the end of the third quarter, and although they played solid throughout, there are still some adjustments to be made.
What exactly are they?
Read on as I will tell you the three biggest changes that have to be made.
Thanks for reading!
How open does LeBron James look on this three-pointer?
There's an 80 percent chance he drained it, too.
LeBron went four-for-five from beyond the arc, and the Heat collectively shot 11-for-24 from deep.
Take Mike Bibby out of the equation and the team's percentage on treys was an astounding 55 percent last night. Even Dwyane Wade, who is not particularly known for his three-point skills, drained a pair on four attempts.
Shawn Marion did fine for the most part defending LeBron, but he can't leave uncontested threes like the pictured one. The King will make those every single time.
And it's not like the Heat were shooting spectacular from the field either, as they equalled Dallas' 39 percent mark overall. It was the threes that were killing them.
Dirk Nowitzki, although not a total defensive liability anymore, is still the worst defender on the Dallas Mavericks not named Peja Stojakovic.
That being said, he did fine against Chris Bosh defensively last night but too many times he looked lost, and gave him looks out top without even contesting them (not that Bosh made many, but still).
Why not put Dirk on the Heat center full-time? That way he wouldn't have to be as productive than if he faced Bosh.
Since Joel Anthony and Juwan Howard clearly aren't offensive assets, the full-time move makes sense.
Besides, Tyson Chandler is one of the league's best post defenders, and he would do fine full-time on Bosh. He certainly wouldn't allow open shots from 18 feet away.
One of the reasons the Miami Heat won Game 1 was because of the Dallas Mavericks' inability to contain in the post. Anytime a Heat player drove and went up, a collision was made.
The Mavs need to play better in the post if they hope to win this series. The game was winnable, even when these mistakes were made. If they are limited, it will add to their chances.
Brendan Haywood, Tyson Chandler and Dirk Nowitzki contributed 12 of the team's 22 fouls, and in turn, Chris Bosh had 12 free-throw attempts.
12 fouls between three players is an unacceptable number, and it must be limited.
If the first slide is to work, and Dirk Nowitzki is pitted against the likes of Joel Anthony and Juwan Howard, then it will be an easier assignment for the seven-foot German.
So who does that leave to guard Dwyane Wade and LeBron James?
Shawn Marion and DeShawn Stevenson are terrific help defenders, guys who can switch with ease. Marion, who defended James last night, would bring his one-on-one defensive skills to the table if he ever needed to switch to take Wade straight up.
Jason Kidd is a fabulous on-ball defender, and he should be put on Wade from the get-go.
That way you can have Marion on James, and Stevenson, being the solid help defense, on whatever point guard Miami throws at them. When the ball is in one of the duo's hands, that is.
It might be a crazy suggestion, but there's no chance the Mavericks come back into this series without limiting the opportunities offensively for LeBron James and Dwyane Wade.
It's not like the Mavericks did a terrible job defensively, but they were ultimately outdone by the Heat.
They forced 14 turnovers on average this season, and last night produced just 10.
Sure, they blocked eight shots, but only a few of those turned into converted opportunities.
They also produced 10 less rebounds than the Heat, and allowed them to grab an astounding 16 offensive rebounds. The Mavs need to become more of a nuisance in the post.
After all, this is the Miami Heat. You're going to need to wreak more havoc than you did last night.

Apoptosis and change of competence limit the size of the vulva equivalence group in Pristionchus pacificus: a genetic analysis

Background: To understand how alterations in the molecular mechanisms underlying developmental processes generate a diversity of biological forms, comparative developmental biology can be combined with genetic analysis. The formation of the nematode vulva is one tractable system for such evolutionary developmental analysis, as much is understood about its development in Caenorhabditis elegans. In Caenorhabditis, six of twelve ventral epidermal cells form the 'vulva equivalence group'; although all six cells are competent to adopt vulval cell fates in response to an inductive signal, only three of these cells are induced to form vulval tissue.
Results In some species of the nematode families Rhabditidae, Neodiplogastridae and Panagrolaimidae, the number of cells in the vulva equivalence group is limited by apoptosis and decreased responsiveness to inductive signals (competence). We have initiated a genetic analysis in one of these species, Pristionchus pacificus, to understand the evolution of the specification of ventral epidermal cells that are competent to generate the vulva. A ped-4 mutation restores competence to an incompetent cell. Mutation of either of two other genes of Pristionchus cause two anterior cells that die in wild-type to survive. A ped-5 mutation causes these cells to be competent to respond to inductive signals, expanding the equivalence group. A ped-6 mutation causes these cells to form ectopic, anterior vulva-like invaginations.
Conclusion During nematode evolution, apoptosis and change of competence alter the number and potency of ventral epidermal cells. The phenotypes of Pristionchus mutants suggest that alterations in homeotic gene control of anteroposterior patterning is involved in creating this cellular diversity.

Crop Top Goth is named for one of our favorite beach babes, Seattle-based Kim Selling of theavantguard.tumblr.com. It features a witchy black base and extra-fine silver holographic glitters, which look nothing short of magical under direct sunlight.
We got the guy behind this infamous tattoo to model Crop Top Goth for us! Thanks John!
Ooh I really want this one, the holo looks great. Also I love this dude modeling.

07:25 AM ET 08.09 | In addition to his game, the position he plays makes Jahlil Okafor the center of attention among the 2014 recruiting class. There are some in NBA circles who believe Okafor could play in the league right now if given the opportunity, and he???s already being penciled in as the top overall pick in the 2015 NBA Draft by most talent evaluators. ... Okafor is currently considering eight schools -- Kansas, Kentucky, Duke, Illinois, Michigan State, Ohio State, Arizona and Baylor -- and he's expecting to make a decision in the next several months. So far, he has two official visits scheduled at Baylor and Kentucky. While some young players would drag out their decision and revel in the national spotlight, Okafor wants to get the process over with before the start of his senior season of high school.
Don't we see something like this every year? A kid in HS who is projected as the #1 pick? This illustrates how weak the NBA has become. Too many teams, half of which exist to fill out the schedule for the other half, because of an 82 game season.

Duke is the only logical choice.
So he can suck at the Pro level.
