Wellness: a Priority to Build a Better World
DAVOS, Switzerland, January 25, 2012 /PRNewswire/ –
This year health and prevention, as key priorities to ensure sustainable social
development to the Planet, will be very high among the topics on the World Economic Forum
Nerio Alessandri, Chairman and Founder of Technogym, is an example of how to create a
global successful business and at the same time, take the social responsibility of
providing what people really need: health.
In Davos, next to the industrial giants like Coca Cola, Unilever, Johnson & Johnson,
and many others, sits the "little" (by comparison) Technogym. Technogym is among the
leading companies of the "Wellness Alliance", not for its size, but because it has been
recognized as the inventor of a new social and economic model based on wellness.
At the age of 22, Alessandri designed and built the fist gym equipment in his garage
in Cesena, a small town in Italy. At the time, in 1983 "It was a muscle-driven market,"
says Alessandri, "focused on aesthetics."
In the early nineties, when an all-muscle vision of fitness was taking the world by
storm, in Italy, Alessandri launched a totally new vision. He called it "Wellness", a
profoundly Italian way of living, dating back to Ancient Rome and based on regular
physical exercise, a healthy diet and a positive mental approach. Mens sana in corpore
sano (a healthy mind in a healthy body). By transforming a business based on hedonism into
a social business, Alessandri has created a revolution that has moved the focus of fitness
from looking good to feeling good and from a small elite of body beautiful fanatics to the
entire human population.
Technogym is today a leading company in the Wellness and Fitness field on the ground
operating in over 100 countries all over the world, with over 2,000 employees. Official
Olympics supplier at London 2012 and, Technogym is a company that has already put its
concept of "social business" into action around the globe.
It took years of cultural battles, work and daily commitment but at last Wellness, the
true wellbeing of the planet and its inhabitants, is a top priority of governments, big
business and a subject which is widely debated at major world-level meetings, from the
World Economic Forum in Davos to plenary sessions of the UN.
"Wellness is an over-the-board social opportunity – for governments to reduce health
service costs, for companies to stimulate their members to be more creative and productive
and for all citizens to improve their health and daily lifestyle," Alessandri clear answer
to a critical historical moment when for the first time in the history of our planet
obesity sufferers have exceeded the number of malnourished.

SNS Reaal shares drop on investor forecast of more state aid
- Tweet
- Share this
AMSTERDAM (Reuters) - Shares in Dutch bancassurer SNS Reaal SR.AS fell on Friday after a high-profile local investor predicted it would require further state aid before the end of the year.
Peter Paul de Vries, former head of Dutch private shareholder association VEB, told Dutch broadcaster RTL 7 he expected SNS Reaal would need state support.
"There is no other option than to go to the state," he said.
SNS Reaal declined to comment on De Vries' remarks and reiterated it would come up with a restructuring plan by early next year.
The firm, which issued a profit warning on November 6, said at the time a solution would probably consist of a combination of measures, including asset sales, set limits on its property credit risks, a share issue and the conversion of state aid into other shares.
SNS Reaal shares were down 4 percent at 0.949 euros by 1504 GMT, having fallen as low as 0.923 euros, their lowest since July and a fraction of their 18.73 euros peak set in 2007.
Dutch deputy prime minister, Lodewijk Asscher, declined to comment when asked by reporters about SNS Reaal's financial health.
De Vries, also chief executive of investment holding company Value8 DRIE.AS, said he did not own any SNS Reaal shares.
Rating agency Moody's on Wednesday warned of an increased chance SNS Reaal might need external support to cope with potential commercial real estate losses and preserve the solvency of its bank.
SNS Reaal's property finance exposure, including commercial real estate loans to small- and medium-sized companies, was 9.8 billion euros ($12.6 billion) at the end of September, of which 2.3 billion were non-performing loans.
Since 2009, net losses on property finance loans have amounted to 1.3 billion euros, up to and including the third quarter of 2012. ($1 = 0.7761 euros)

We supply the Adult School, corporal punishment, maid uniform, human pony scene and general BDSM scene world-wide.
You do not have to join The Academy Club to buy from us. However if you have any interest in the adult-school, corporal punishment, maid or human-pet scene then it may well be worthwhile.
If you want to get involved, whichever end of the cane, or place in the household you want to be, then it most certainly it is worthwhile!
The Academy Club publish The Muir Journal, (see Books), which chronicles the events and personalities of The Muir Academy and Muir College and carries other relevant and exciting features and fantasies.
If you join The Academy Club we send, by ordinary post, the latest issue of The Prospectus of The Muir Academy, The Interview Guide, the current Muir Journal, then three more as they are published, a regular Members' Brief with scores of Member To Member advertisements from adult boys, girls and special girls and also from Schoolmasters, Schoolmistresses, and indeed 'special Schoolmistresses', etc.
Joining The Academy Club is also the first step to coming to Muir Academy for clases or as a maid. When you get the Member's Pack it includes Miss Prim's phone number, so you can arrange an interview direct.
You then send off the booking form with the deposit and prepare your uniform. If you have none then Miss Prim can lend you the basics usually (eg skirt and kneesocks for girls, shorts and long socks for boys). The details are all in the Interview Guide.
The next step is an interview with Miss Prim which is always done in Hereford, usually on a weekday, between 10 am and 4 pm. The purpose of the interview is to establish the mutual knowledge and respect necessary for you to take a full part as an adult schoolboy, schoolgirl or maid. Very few are told they are completely unsuitable.
It is essential that before you come for interview, whether for school or as a maid, that you have read The Prospectus, Interview Guide and Muir Journal thoroughly. There are no short cuts to this.
It will allow you to ensure that you really are excited by our kind of role-play, and that you can make all the physical, emotional and psychological preparations necessary to make the most of the experience.
Only interviewed Members of The Academy Club may come to the closed school-scene and other fancy-dress discipline parties we run.
Passing an interview also allows you to come to individual tuition, day and boarding school, mini-day schools, etc.
It is also the first step to serving as a Maid at Muir Academy and other events.
It is a good start to helping in Sir Guy's office as a secretary or clerk, though not an essential one.
We publish hundreds of booklets ourselves and sell many others relevant to our particular interests. We also have a wide range of second-hand or remaindered books and magazines.
We sell a full range of schoolwear in adult sizes. Mostly new, but also sale bargains, second-hand uniform and academic gowns.
We sell a full range of implements for corporal punishment.
We sell Skool's A Pain, a video about life at The Muir Academy and dozens of live-action and story audio tapes. Soon we may be doing CDs as well.
We do a wide range of bridles and harness for human ponies, a range that is expanding rapidly.
For your catalogues send your name, address, state you are 21 or over & enclose £2 in stamps from the UK, US$5 from mainland Europe & US$10 from US, & everywhere else, to
Email enquiries use this form: e-mail Sir Guy.

Is Facebook's big problem one of public relations?
In other words, are they misunderstood? So argues Liz Gannes from GigaOm in her article Facebook Needs to Find Its Voice on Privacy.Â
I don't think Facebook is evil. The company's leaders believe that each perceived privacy erosion is actually an improvement to user experience — and if that's true, they need to tell us, show us and convince us. They brought this privacy fiasco upon themselves, and they need to deal with it.

AMUSEMENT PARKS by: Protoclown
I love amusement parks, or �theme parks� as a lot of them are called these days. There are few finer ways to spend a summer day than roaming around an amusement park for hours, getting onto rickety death-trap contraptions that lurch you around at breakneck speeds and spin you upside down repeatedly. Unless... you�re a scared little girl or something. I understand, of course. When I was younger, I was afraid of all but the most gentle roller coasters. I would never even have considered going on anything that goes upside-down, not even for a second. I remember the first time I rode the �Scooby Doo� roller coaster at King�s Dominion, I nearly shat my pants from fear as it careened around the corners at twenty, possibly thirty miles per hour! But somewhere along the way, I got over my fear. Now I�ll go on anything and everything, the more insane, the better. If they design a roller coaster that jumps off the track and ramps over a spike-filled pit, I�m there. A bungee drop from 500 feet over shark infested waters? Just tell me where to sign up. Two roller coaster cars on the same track zooming towards each other on a collision course, with a big net down below to catch all the survivors and/or body parts? Sure, why not. One thing I cannot stand though is the water park. Most big parks have one, an area sectioned off from the rest of the park, where you go on water slides, get in inner tubes and drift aimlessly, or big wave pools that you get into and bob around. It�s an area that�s basic design revolves around getting you as wet as possible. I don�t like being wet, except in the shower. That�s about it. I don�t like walking around in drenched clothes for the rest of the day, and more importantly, I don�t swim, so the water park is not very appealing to me. Even when the water isn�t very deep. It just isn�t something I enjoy. But what bothers me the most about the water park isn�t the water. It�s the other people. I just recently got dragged along to the water park at King�s Dominion by some friends of mine, and since I didn�t want to go on any of the water �rides�, I was delegated to watch over everyone else�s stuff that they didn�t want to get wet. Fine by me, I dragged some other people onto rides that they didn�t particularly want to go on earlier in the day, and fair�s fair. As I was sitting around by the big pile of stuff, I started watching the other people walking by, as there wasn�t much else to do. I was appalled at the number of morbidly obese people wandering around wearing the skimpiest bathing suits that they could fit into. And many of them weren�t just of gargantuan size, they were hideously ugly as well! It was as if every fat, ugly stupid, buck-toothed redneck bastard decided to come down from the mountain just so they could have a parade right in front of me that day. But the thing is, it wasn't just that day, they are ALWAYS there! They are drawn to the water park by some force that I have not yet begun to understand. There were only two (TWO!) people who wandered by that day who I wouldn�t mind seeing naked, and ONE OF THEM WAS A GUY. Fucking water parks.
One odd phenomenon that only just struck me the last time I went to a theme park is the ubiquitous presence of wandering goths. I saw at least four distinct traveling bands of goths wandering around the park over and over again throughout the day. And now that I think of it, every time I�ve ever been to a theme park, state fair, carnival or bake sale, there are always groups of goths wandering around aimlessly. At one point on my last trip, two of the separate goth groups just happened to stumble into opposite ends of the �Congo� area of the park at the same time. As they approached each other, I became certain that I was in for a real treat, as I anticipated watching two warring goth clans closing in on each other and snapping their fingers in a �West Side Story� showdown of epic proportions. Unfortunately, this didn�t happen. They merely stayed as far away from each other as possible, giving each other a wide berth as they cautiously went past. I saw another goth in line to ride a roller coaster, accompanied by only one other �normal� person. This guy was fully decked out in black clothing, white face paint, and a leather trench coat, in 90-degree heat. If someone is so concerned about their �image� that they are willing to collapse of heat-stroke to maintain it, they deserve what they get.
KING'S DOMINION: Family entertainment and a whole lot more!
One thing I do truly HATE about amusement parks are those annoying carnival barker types who work at those shitty booths that are spaced every five feet between all the rides. You know the ones, with impossible games that can only be won by a pact with Satan, like throwing rings onto bottle necks and shit like that. And then if you do by some miracle manage to win, you get to choose from a selection of stuffed animals that are BIGGER THAN GOD. Who wants to walk around all day carrying something like that? Apparently quite a few people, from what I observed. Hell, I saw one idiot struggling to carry THREE of those fucking things, and dragging them onto roller coaster lines with him and everything. I hope those animals fell on him and crushed him under their weight.
Speaking of which, I feel sorry for those poor bastards that have to dress up in those giant animal costumes and walk around in blistering heat all day. What a shitty job. If I were one of those guys, I would damn sure snap and end up killing a bunch of kids. I�d probably have a special bush that I would hide the bodies behind. It would be over near the restrooms, right behind the annoying carnival barker dude with the big �test your strength� mallet. Come to think of it, I�d probably just kill him and take the mallet. It�d be much more fun to run around attacking children that way. It�d be like whack-a-mole, but about ten times more fulfilling. note: Protoclown needs to get back to a theme park in the near future. He�s started to develop �the twitch� that only more funnel cake can cure.

Not having booked a villa directly with an owner before I was a bit apprehensive, but Sharon and Paul alleviated all my worries with their friendly service and prompt response to all my enquiries. The villa was a welcome retreat after a long day at the theme parks. The pictures do not accurately convey how at home you will feel or the height of the ceilings. All in all this villa will appeal to the most discerning of travellers, the décor is beautiful. This villa offers a little something for everyone, whether it be relaxing in the pool/spa or a few rounds of darts/snooker in the games room. I cannot recommend this villa enough. The location is spot on as it is a stones through away from the I4. If the owners will have us we will definitely return.Recommended for: Girls getaway, people with disabilities, families with young children, age 55+, families with teenagers, adventure seekers, romantic getaway.
Owner response: Sharmayne, It's been a pleasure having you and we do hope that you stay in our home again. Sharron & Paul

This villa was perfect for our 2 week stay. It was ideally situated for us with the shops, restaurants and parks only a short drive away. We loved coming back to the villa after a day in the parks to relax in the pool. The villa is beautifully decorated and had everything you could possibly need and more. Paul and Sharron were great from the minute I enquired about booking to returning our deposit within a week of returning. We are already planning when we can return!Did you find this review helpful?

"Beautiful Villa" This was our 3rd visit to a villa in Florida. Our first time (in a nearby area to this villa) was the perfect holiday but our second was not as impressive (downtown Kissimmee). So we were very careful and anxious about our choice of villa. Sharron & Pauls villa exceeded our expectations. Spotlessly clean and superbly kitted out. The additional touches like free wifi and the games room was an added bonus. Great area and very handy for all parks and attractions as well as local shops and supermarkets. If we decide to return to Florida then we would definitely return to this villa. Highly recommended.Did you find this review helpful? Yes | No Helpful votes: 0/0

From first contact with Sharron and Paul everything was great. We have rented many villas and always felt confident that this villa would be just as we thought it would be, superb. Upon arrival we were greated with an array of christmas lights and the tree inside was a real surprise as well. There were 3 in our party and although the villa was big, it still felt cosy and very much a loved 'home'. We have stayed in the location about 9 or 10 times now and just love it, so convenient, yet great to feel you can get away from the 'madness' of the parks. The furnishings were lovely and we felt extremely honoured to be the first family to have use of the new settees. Which were most comfortable. We would definitely book again and whom ever stays at the villa will find it to be wonderful.Did you find this review helpful? Yes | No Helpful votes: 0/0

This 5* villa was absolutely perfect for our 3 week stay in april. From start to finish the service was first class. The communication and helpfulness of the owners, the facilities and decoration of the villa, and the location, 10 mins from the Disney Parks and 20 mins from International Drive and Seaworld, Universal and Busch Gardens, etc. After a long day at the parks to come back and unwind in the pool and spa was luxury. A definite recommendation to anyone.Did you find this review helpful? Yes | No Helpful votes: 0/0

We have just returned from our first family holiday to Orlando, Florida and oh what a fabulous time we had!. This villa was our base for the duration of our stay and it was beautiful, so comfortable and with every convenience possible - it was a real treat to stay there. Situated outside of the melee of Kissimee it was perfectly situated close to the main I4, which meant we could easily whizz anywhere - it was only around 10-15 minutes to the Disney area or for the nearest mall shopping. The location was very peaceful and felt secure being part of a gated community. The Publix supermarket, Walgreens pharmacy and various other amenities were just around the corner. The villa itself was beautifully presented and extremely clean. The furnishings were luxurious, and there was nothing we felt was amiss. It was well appointed with excellent appliances (I want one of those washing machines/tumble dryers!!!!) The pool area was fabulous and so popular with our kids that it was quite hard work to get them out of it, even to go to the parks! After a long, tiring day at the parks there was nothing better than a quick dip and the pool followed by a Gin & Tonic (adults only of course!) The owners Paul and Sharron were very good at providing information on the villa both before we left for Florida and during our stay (there was a handy folder packed with info at the villa). The local management company was also on hand if we had needed them, but it simply wasnt necessary on this occasion. We were quite nervous about booking a villa in Florida as it is something of an unknown quantity but our fears were unfounded. The owners always answered any questions promptly, provided clear and concise information and made the whole process as easy as possible. If you want to enjoy a flexible, relaxed holiday in Florida in beautiful surroundings, then this villa is for you. I would not hesitate to recommend this villa and its owners and sincerely hope that we can go back again once day soon.Recommended for: Girls getaway, people with disabilities, families with young children, sightseeing, age 55+, families with teenagers, adventure seekers, romantic getaway.

This was our fourth visit to Florida but our first time in a villa, we were astounded when we walked through the door at how beautiful and huge the villa is; the photos on the internet do not reflect how fantastic it is. It felt like we were home, our 8 year old daughter Olivia loved the swimming pool and it is extremely safe with a pool guard (which you can remove if you wish!). Normally we would spend all of our time out of the accommodation and be at the parks or on I Drive, but this time we couldn't wait to go home in the afternoons and dip in the pool. Everything was to hand and very easy to use. The location was perfect, only 15-20 minutes door to door for the disney parks and lots of other attractions. We will definitely be staying again in the future - maybe even next year!!Recommended for: Girls getaway, people with disabilities, families with young children, sightseeing, age 55+, families with teenagers, adventure seekers, romantic getaway.

Our family has just returned from a wonderful stay in this vacation home and we can't say enough good things about it. Right from beginning the rental process, the owner and management company were very friendly and extremely helpful. The home itself is absolutely gorgeous. The pictures accurately represent the house...but they do not do it justice. The decor is beautiful and carries throughout the entire home. Expense has not been spared. It was perfectly clean, outdoor lights were on for our late night arrival, and the pool was heated to a wonderful "warm-bath" temperature. The area is situated with easy access to the I4 highway which suited the needs of our family perfectly for travel to Tampa, the beaches, restaurants and theme parks. There is a Publix grocery store close by. We can think of many more things we'd like to do and see on a return trip to Florida, but we cannot imagine a better home base. Top notch! Thank you so much!Recommended for: Girls getaway, people with disabilities, families with young children, sightseeing, age 55+, families with teenagers, romantic getaway.

We have just returned from 1 weeks stay over New Year 2008. What can we say that hasn't already been said? Villa is beautiful and is in a lovely location. Very easy drive from I4. It was wonderful to come back from a long day in the parks and chill out by the pool and the spa. We would definitely recommend this villa as being at top end of market. If anyone wishes to contact me directly I will happily give a personal recommendation. From our original inquiry through to the return of our deposit I cannot speak highly enough of owners. Management company also checked with us to see if there was anything we needed. This type of service is unexpected and exceptional in our experience and only adds to the fantastic experience of staying in this villa.Recommended for: Sightseeing, families with teenagers.
Owner response: Once again, we were fortunate to have such lovely guests and we hope to have you stay again sometime in the future.

Forum Craft Womens Snowboard 2010
She's crafty...just my type.
Forum girls don't need to talk the talk, they just go riding. This board is for the confident charges that spend their time lapping the parks and slashing the pow instead of gabbing in the lodge and trying too hard to impress. Built with a stable Gnar core, a ladylike flex and speedy formula base, this progressive twin board gives advancing girl riders the power to compete with the best.
Forum Craft Women's Snowboard key features:
Swingers Club Tech™ - Forum gets around. But the real reason these boards are landing so many tricks is their membership to the Swingers Club. Supplied with quick spin tech, CNC machined profiling, and less density in the tips for quick exits and easy maneuverability in the deep stuff, these boards will get you out of bad spots and keep you in line for the next kicker.
Gnar Core – The original gnar core is made entirely of Hunter S. Aspen. While maintaining a snappy and responsive ride, the vertical wood laminates also reduce the overall weight of the board. Grainbelt technology adds snap-resistant strength to the critical impact zone between your bindings.
Light Triax Fiberglass Construction – You get smooth longitudinal flex from tip-to-tail with the torsional rigidity needed for reliable performance in all snow conditions. This construction features three layers in the 0 and 45 degree fiber orientation.
Formula Base – This base will get you accelerating faster and hitting a higher-top end speed. All it asks is for the usual maintenance, like waxing and scraping, to keep you from coming up short or getting the sloppy seconds.
PROFILE: Twin
RIDING STYLE/ TERRAIN: Freestyle/ All-Mountain
BASE: Formula base

SIDEWALL: F Gel sidewall
SIDECUT: Radial

- 2/3 cup cider vinegar
- 1/2 cup ketchup
- 1/4 cup canola oil
- 1/4 cup soy sauce
- 2 tablespoons Worcestershire sauce
- 2 teaspoons garlic powder
- 2 teaspoons salt
- 2 teaspoons prepared mustard

- Drain and discard marinade. Grill roast, covered, over indirect heat for 20 minutes, turning occasionally.
- Add applesauce to reserved marinade; brush over roast. Continue basting and turning the roast several times for 1 to 1-1/2 hours or until meat reaches desired doneness (for medium-rare, a meat thermometer should read 145°; medium, 160°; well-done, 170°). Yield: 6-8 servings.
Reviews for Barbecued Chuck Roast(5)
Sort By :
Very tasty. Even good on steaks!
Used the marinade for beef kabobs. They had about 3 hours to marinate. The best I've had in a long time.
My family loved this recipe. Turned out so tender. Kids thought it was steak!
This came out so tender and flavorful! I used EVOO instead of canola oil, and honey mustard for the mustard. Cooked it in my oven covered in tin foil bc it was raining out today! 400 degrees for about 2 hours or so. Even my skeptical fiance loved it! Served it with homemade potato french fries and boiled asparagus.
This recipe was absolutely delicious. The meat was so full of flavor that the kids didn't even want ketchup to dip it in! That's saying something in my family. I just made it two nights ago and I've already had a request for it to be made again. I didn't grill it, I cooked it in the oven, basting as suggested. Thank you for sharing Ardis!

The Collected Works of John Stuart Mill, Volume XXII - Newspaper Writings December 1822 - July 1831 Part I, ed. Ann P. Robson and John M. Robson, Introduction by Ann P. Robson and John M. Robson (Toronto: University of Toronto Press, London: Routledge and Kegan Paul, 1986).
Liberty Fund, Inc. is a private, educational foundation established to encourage the study of the ideal of a society of free and responsible individuals.

Here Mill introduces a Paris correspondent, Pierre Martin Maillefer (ca. 1799-?), journalist and member of the Aide-toi Society, whom Mill probably persuaded in August 1830 (see CW, Vol. XII, p. 63) to write for the Examiner (see Nos. 95, 99, 117). Maillefer's lengthy article (pp. 55-6, dated 11 Jan.) follows the three paragraphs here included. The article, in "Foreign Intelligence," is headed as title. Described in Mill's bibliography as "Paragraphs introductory to a series of letters from France, in the Examiner of 23d Jany 1831" (MacMinn, p. 14), the item is listed on the fly-leaf of the Somerville College set as "Introductory remarks to a French correspondence (by Martin Maillefer)," and Mill's part of the article is enclosed in square brackets.
we have succeeded in obtaining the aid of a most valuable correspondent at Paris, whose first letter appears in this day's Examiner. England has newspapers enough, which, while hypocritically affecting zeal for Parliamentary Reform at home, make it their daily business to re-echo the most contemptible calumnies propagated by the new Oligarchy against the Parliamentary Reformers of France. The letters of our correspondent will be a faithful picture of the opinions, the feelings, perhaps even the errors, of the younger and more ardent portion of the popular party. Whatever they know, he knows; whatever they feel, he feels; whatever he believes, is believed at least by many of the most active and influential in a party of which he himself is not one of the obscurest members, and of which his position and his sources of information render him an adequate representative.
We are not responsible for all the opinions of our correspondent, nor do we expect that he will never express any sentiments in which we should disagree. But we can answer for the purity and excellence of all the public objects, which he, and his friends, have in view. We cannot, of course, guarantee all the facts which he relates, especially those which are of the nature of anecdotes; but we are certain that he will affirm nothing as true, but what is at least, very generally believed; and it is often of as much, or even of still greater importance and interest, to know what is thought to be true, than what really is so. We are convinced, in short, that as nothing will be disguised in these letters, both the faults and the virtues of the French character, and of the popular party in particular, will be exhibited in them, with the utmost fidelity and naïveté; and that here, and no where else, will the English reader be enabled to judge the more exaltés of the young patriots of France from their own lips. The very first letter, and the picture which it exhibits of public opinion in France, exemplify at once the virtues and the failings most natural to the French people, those connected with great susceptibility and mobility of character. In the most sanguinary excesses of the first revolution, as a word would rouse the popular fury, so a word would calm it: and now, with manners and habits infinitely softened and improved, the French retain the same excitability of spirit: the most lively gratitude and affection towards public men who wish, or seem to wish their good; suspicion and distrust, easily conceived, and easily renounced; political tergiversation punished for a time by bitter resentment, but very slender and inadequate services accepted as a full atonement.
The correspondence will not be continued every week, but as often as events may require and space permit, or as the reception which it meets with from the public, may seem to justify.

Beware of Fraudulent Internship & Job Postings
Does the internship opportunity or job offer you received seem too good to be true? Please carefully read the information below and learn the signs of a fraudulent internship or job posting.
You should avoid interacting with companies that meet any of the criteria below:
- Request that you provide your credit card, bank account numbers, or other personal financial documentation.
- The posting appears to be from a reputable, familiar company (often a Fortune 500). Yet, the domain in the contact's email address does not match the domain used by representatives of the company (this is typically easy to determine from the company's website). Another way to validate is to check the open positions on the company's website.
- The contact email address contains the domain @live.com.
- The position requires an initial investment, such as a payment by wire service or courier.
- The posting includes many spelling and grammatical errors.
- The position initially appears as a traditional job...upon further research, it sounds more like an independent contractor opportunity.
- You are offered a large payment or reward in exchange for allowing the use of your bank account (often for depositing checks or transferring money).
- You receive an unexpectedly large check (checks are typically slightly less than $500, generally sent or deposited on Fridays).
- You are asked to provide a photo of yourself.
- The position is for any of the following: Envelope Stuffers, Home-based Assembly Jobs, Online Surveys.
- The posting neglects to mention what the responsibilities of the job actually are. Instead, the description focuses on the amount of money to be made.
- The employer responds to you immediately after you submit your resume. Typically, resumes sent to an employer are reviewed by multiple individuals, or not viewed until the posting has closed. Note - this does not include an auto-response you may receive from the employer once you have sent your resume.
- The position indicates a "first year compensation" that is in high excess to the average compensation for that position type.
- Look at the company's website. Does it have an index that tells you what the site is about; or does it contain information only about the job you are interested in? Scammers often create quick, basic web pages that seem legit at first glance.
- Watch for anonymity. If it is difficult to find an address, actual contact, company name, etc. - this is cause to proceed with caution. Fraud postings are illegal, so scammers will try to keep themselves well-hidden.
- The salary range listed is very wide (i.e. "employees can earn from $40K - $80K the first year!")
- When you Google the company name and the word "scam" (i.e. Acme Company Scam), the results show several scam reports concerning this company. Another source for scam reports is: http://www.ripoffreport.com.
- Google the employer's phone number, fax number and/or email address. If it does not appear connected to an actual business organization, this is a red flag. The Symplicity team often uses the Better Business Bureau (http://www.bbb.org/us/consumers/), Hoovers (http://www.hoovers.com/) and AT&T's Anywho (http://www.anywho.com/) to verify organizations.
- The employer contacts you by phone, however there is no way to call them back. The number is not available.
- The employer tells you that they do not have an office set-up in your area, and will need you to help them get it up and running (these postings often include a request for your banking information, supposedly to help the employer make transactions).
What if a Student is Already Involved in a Scam?
- The student should immediately contact the local police. The police are responsible for conducting an investigation (regardless of whether the scam artist is local or in another state).
- If it is a situation where the student has sent money to a fraud employer:
the student should contact their bank or credit card company immediately to close the account and dispute the charges

T-Mobile is being a bit cagey on the subject, but everyone else is saying that the carrier is expanding its $50-per-month unlimited voice plan. It will now be available on a nationwide basis for customers who have been with T-Mobile 22 months or longer.
Launched just two weeks ago, the plan originally was available to San Francisco customers only. T-Mobile has yet to make a formal statement acknowledging the expansion, and a carrier spokesman wouldn't confirm the move with RCR Wireless News, but two of the publication's reporters were able to sign up for the plan in different … Read more

I Can't Help It.
I try so hard to forgive and forget, but i just can't. early into our relationship, my boyfriend hurt me a lot. he flirted with other women, he wrote extremely hurtful letters about how i was a dirty *****, and he really didn't take our relationship seriously at all.It's been a couple months sense then, but i just can't get over it. I love him, i really do, but i don't feel like i can let my guard down with him because he's hurt me before. I don't know how to build back my trust after he ruined it.

If you really feel you can't let your guard down than it would be better if you really love him to let him go. It will only be frustrating for you especially if he does it again. It is a different story if your married but, he 's just a boyfriend move on it doesn't hurt to see beyond the little box. Especially when you can't forgive and forget. Look beyond your horizon and keep your head high you will feel much better and love will come and seek you.

Elegeion are a gothic doom metal band from Melbourne, Australia. The history of Elegeion traces back to 1993 when Elegeion founders Kwan and Wallbridge formed the Black/Death Metal band Greydawn along with Wallbridge's brother Morbius Warseth, Deathsaw Dave and Kwan's brother Chris. Greydawn lasted from 1993-1995, after which musical differences caused Wallbridge and Kwan to branch off to what was to become Elegeion.
Beginnings of Elegeion:
The band was formed by Kwan and Wallbridge in 1995, initially as an experimental side project to Greydawn, briefly under the name Sombre Skies, which was quickly changed to the name Transcendence.
The band crosses elements of doom metal as well as incorporating classical instruments, such ah violin and cello and female vocals. Their main influences are cited as My Dying Bride, Disembowelment, the Third and the Mortal and Henryk Gorecki, however the band have stated in interviews that they created Elegeion because at the time they simply could not find the style of music they were seeking so decided to write their own music blending their influences.
Several songs and riffs originally written in the black/doom style for Greydawn were re-worked for Elegeion and feature in many of their albums up until the present day. Songs such as Elegeion's "Beyond Despair" was originally a death/doom track entitled "Slough of Despond" by Greydawn. Many black metal riffs originally written for Greydawn were slowed to down stroke only open minor power chords for Elegeion, which is the main evidence of Elegeion's Black Metal roots. Kwan still occasionally draws on old demo tapes from the Greydawn era for inspiration.
The band started recording their first demo in 1995, however the first version of the demo was accidentally deleted in between recording sessions. The second attempt "Induction to Eternal Rest..." was recorded 1995-1996 and was released in 1996 still under the band name Transcendence. The demo received several positive reviews in magazines such as Terrorizer Magazine, and subsequently quickly sold out. It also grabbed the attention of such well known record labels as Head Not Found, Avantgarde Records and Candlelight Records, finally resulting in the signing of a record contract with Candlelight in 1996.
In 1997, the demo was re-mixed for Candlelight Records to be released as an EP. Just before the release, staff at Candlelight got wind of another band releasing a debut the same year under the name Transcendence. They notified the band, who immediately changed their name to Elegeion, which was previously considered at the band's inception. The debut release on Candlelight Records was entitled "Odyssey Into Darkness" by Elegeion in 1997.
After the release of Odyssey Into Darkness, James left the band resulting in Anthony searching for new musicians for the debut album.
Through the Eyes of Regret:
In 1999 Kwan commenced recording demo tapes for the album that was to be "Through the Eyes of Regret". These demo tracks are featured on the limited release demo entitles "Out of the Depths of Sorrow".
In 2000, Kwan entered Nesci Studios in Adelaide to commence recording. The album featured Kwan as the sole member of the band with all others listed as session musicians. The album featured vocals by both Natasha, who did vocals for the debut EP, and Dieudonnee, who was to also perform vocals on Elegeion's subsequent releases. The album was released by Modern Invasion Music in 2001, however the rights to release this album have been contested by Kwan, as the initial advance was never paid in full.
The album was a natural progression of the first EP, continuing the sparse melancholic doom, with brief uptempo sections and use of classical stringed instrumentation.
The Last Moment:
In 2004, Kwan again entered Nesci Studios to record "The Last Moment". This time collaborating with original bassist Wallbridge on drums, and Dieudonnee on piano and vocals. This time, the album took on a shorter more concise style, both in terms of song length and album length. Only four of the seven tracks were written by Anthony, the remainder written by either Jame or Dieudonnee. The album was released in 2005 by Dark Symphonies. The track "Scars" by Dieudonnee has had over 387,000 views on YouTube.
The album received acclaim from Australian National Broadcast JJJ's Full Metal Racket, where both the album, and track "Heaven's Torment" were voted in the DJ's Top 5 Aussie Metal releases and tracks of 2005.

Live In The Vocal Booth Artist Review| Tank - This Is How I Feel | World Premier: The Tatum Talks| Special Guest: Comedian G.L. Douglas
Sunday, 27 May 2012 16:24Tonight on Bks1 Radio we have a special show for you. First we review Tank's latest release This Is How I Feel. Then following the Tank Review we bring you the Premier episode of Tatum Talks, Bks1 Radio's newest show added to the line up.
Artist Review: Tank
Tank delivers his 5th studio release with This Is How I Feel, lets see if he can continue to bring the soulful sounds that he is known. Here is an excerpt about Tank from (www.therealtank.com):
Tank is one of the most recognizable names in modern R&B, known for vivid storytelling and sensual love songs. He's an icon in the making, with four albums and eight Grammy nominations under his belt. He's also a singer who carries the torch of masters like Marvin Gaye and Al Green, while redefining R&B for a new decade. For singer/songwriter/producer Tank—about to release his Atlantic Records debut Now or Never, his first album in three years, and the one he describes as his most confident yet—the secret is simple. He remains true to who he is, as a man and an artist.
"My music is the real me," says Tank. "I'll either live by that or I'll die by that in this business, but I've got to be me." He's famous for sexy yet relatable love songs that are at once thoroughly modern and yet steeped in the sounds of classic soul. Though fans know and love Tank for smash hits like "Maybe I Deserve" and "Please Don't Go," they may be surprised to learn that he is also behind such chart-toppers as Rubben Studdard's "Change Me" and Omarion's "O." What's more, Tank served as an associate member of the hit-making production team, The Underdogs, with further credits including the smash soundtrack to the 2006 musical film adaptation of Dreamgirls (in which he also made a cameo). Since releasing his previous album Sex, Love, & Pain in 2007, Tank took a moment to step out of the spotlight, but not necessarily out of the studio. He formed the Los Angeles-based production company Song Dynasty, and began shaping the sound of modern R&B with songs for a diverse roster of artists including Keyshia Cole, Jennifer Hudson, Jamie Foxx, Chris Brown, and Keri Hilson. Though he has enjoyed crafting hits for these artists, Tank is ready to step into the spotlight yet again, and returns with an incredibly personal collection. "I put a lot of my personal business into my music because people relate to it. I sing based upon the things that I've been through. I don't just sing about the pain, I sing about getting through it. Whether I'm singing about sex, relationships, or the occasional party, the songs are still about classic R&B themes."

A Mother's Love - Love Their Sons and Raise Their Daughters
Friday, 05 October 2012 19:16Everyone knows how difficult it can be to raise a child on their own, and no one understands that fact more than single mothers around the world. The challenges women face raising children is that much harder when those children are of the opposite sex. Why? Well, for one the jealousy between which child is the favorite, the manipulation of one child to the other, and rules of exception for one child or the other. Some would debate especially children who have a sibling of the opposite sex that boys are treated differently than girls. You'll often hear children bickering and arguing their parents treat each child differently than the other, and sometimes parents don't realize they do it because they feel they love them equally. Yet, there is a difference between the two that should be taken into consideration considering it's hard to keep up with more than one child, and keep discipline intact.
Often times the rope is let loose on one child in order to keep a closer eye on the one that needs it most, and usually parents feel its the girls. All the while giving the boys the chance to get into mischief of all kinds, and sometimes suffocating their daughters lead to a future of unexpected behavior. Tonight we will discuss how a mother's choice to love their sons and raise their daughters effects their growth or relationship between each other. If a mothers choice of discipline pushes away their children or keeps them in line. The challenges single mothers face providing for their children, while playing the father/mother role in hopes of keeping their household in order, and more.

Oasis Surf Camp Review
This rustic, Italian-owned lodge is right on Playa Santa Catalina, amid the coconut palms and mere steps from the surf. Most rooms are basically cement boxes with beds, a fan, and a bathroom. All have a/c, but you'll pay an extra $10 per day if you chose to use it. It's definitely worth it in these climes. You can hear the waves and the rustling of palm fronds at night, and when you step out your door you're on the beach. An adjoining open-air restaurant ($–$$) serves three meals a day and becomes the town's go-to place in the evening. Surfing lessons are given on the nearby beach break—the only place in Santa Catalina where novices can surf without risking their lives.
