My dad died Dec. 19, 2011 after a long illness. My relationship with him was complicated, distant and strained. I did not see him or say goodbye to him before he died, and now wish I'd made an effort to when there was still time. I didn't attend his memorial as I felt my presence would be unwelcome and upsetting to my step-mother and the rest of the family.
Last week my sister called me and informed me that my dad had left me an insurance policy and that it was his wish that I spend the money on myself. I was shocked, upset, and even more guilt-ridden when I got this news. I feel almost paralyzed by my grief, and while I'm blessed to have a husband who is trying to be supportive and understanding, there just isn't anything he can do to help me. I can't even help me.
I don't know how to deal with the painful emotions I feel. I haven't lost a parent before and this hurts worse than anything I've ever experienced. Has anyone else dealt with a similar situation? Any comments, suggestions or advice would be greatly appreciated. Thank you.

Dermatomyositis (Aftercare Instructions) Care Guide
- Dermatomyositis
- Dermatomyositis Aftercare Instructions
- Dermatomyositis Discharge Care
- Dermatomyositis Inpatient Care
- En Espanol
Dermatomyositis (der-MAH-to-mi-o-SI-tis) is a disease that affects your muscles. With this disease you have muscle inflammation (swelling) and skin rashes. The swelling often causes the muscles of your arms and legs to grow weaker. Skin rashes are often found on the upper eyelids, cheeks, upper chest, elbows, knees, and knuckles of the hands. You may also get a fever, scaly patches over your knuckles, trouble swallowing or breathing, and muscle pain. These symptoms slowly get worse over time. Tests include muscle and skin biopsies (samples), an MRI, and blood tests. Treatment may include medicine and special therapy. With treatment you may be able to continue your usual activities for a longer period of time.
Take your medicine as directed.
Call your primary healthcare provider if you think your medicine is not helping or if you have side effects. Tell him if you are allergic to any medicine. Keep a list of the medicines, vitamins, and herbs you take. Include the amounts, and when and why you take them. Bring the list or the pill bottles to follow-up visits. Carry your medicine list with you in case of an emergency.
- Anti-itching medicine: Caregivers may give you medicine to help keep your skin from itching. This medicine may be given in an IV, as a shot, by mouth, or as a skin lotion. Sometimes this medicine can make you sleepy.
- Antimalarial medicine: These medicines may help to decrease your symptoms, such as skin rashes.
- Steroids: This medicine may be given to decrease inflammation.
- Immunosuppressives: The immune system may see normal cells as abnormal and attack them. When normal cells are attacked, it causes the symptoms of dermatomyositis. These medicines may slow down the attack on muscle cells by the immune system. Do not stop taking these medicines without your caregivers OK. Stopping on your own can cause problems.
- Pain medicine: You may need medicine to take away or decrease pain.
- Learn how to take your medicine. Ask what medicine and how much you should take. Be sure you know how, when, and how often to take it.
- Do not wait until the pain is severe before you take your medicine. Tell caregivers if your pain does not decrease.
- Pain medicine can make you dizzy or sleepy. Prevent falls by calling someone when you get out of bed or if you need help.
- Learn how to take your medicine. Ask what medicine and how much you should take. Be sure you know how, when, and how often to take it.
Ask for information about where and when to go for follow-up visits:
For continuing care, treatments, or home services, ask for more information.
- Hydrotherapy: This is a gentle water exercise program. It may strengthen muscles that are not damaged by dermatomyositis.
- Massage and stretching: Gentle body massages and stretching may help keep you from getting contractures. A contracture is a shortened muscle that may make a joint difficult to move.
- Physical therapy: You may need to see a physical therapist to teach you special exercises. These exercises help improve movement and decrease pain. Physical therapy can also help improve strength and decrease your risk for loss of function.
- Occupational therapy: Occupational therapy (OT) uses work, self-care, and other normal daily activities to help you function better in your daily life. OT helps you develop skills to improve your ability to bathe, dress, cook, eat, and drive. You may learn to use special tools to help you with your daily activities. You may also learn new ways to keep your home or workplace safe.
- Speech therapy: A speech therapist may work with you to help you talk or swallow.
- Exercise: Exercise makes the heart stronger, lowers blood pressure, and helps keep you healthy. Begin to exercise slowly and do more as you get stronger. Talk with your primary healthcare provider before you start an exercise program.
- You may feel safer if you use a 4 prong (pointed) cane or a walker when walking. To keep from falling, remove loose carpeting from the floor. Using chairs with side arms and hard cushions will make it easier to get up or out of a chair. Put grab bars on the walls beside toilets and inside showers and bathtubs. These will help you get up after using the toilet or after bathing. Grab bars will also help to keep you from falling in the shower. You may want to put a shower chair inside the shower.
How should I protect my skin?
- Wear sunscreen that has sun protectant factor 15 (SPF15) or higher. The sunscreen should also have UVA and UVB protection. Follow the directions on the label when using sunscreen. Put on more sunscreen if you are in the sun for more than an hour. Reapply sunscreen often if you go swimming or are sweating a lot.
- Stay out of the sun between 10 AM and 4 PM. The sun is strongest and most harmful to your skin between these times.
- Avoid being in the sun at high altitude and around the snow, sand, and water.
- Protect your lips by using lipsticks and lip balms that have sunscreen in them.
- Wear long-sleeved shirts and pants to protect your arms and legs when you are out in the sun. Wear a hat with a wide brim to protect both your face and neck.
- Do not use tanning booths. These can damage your skin as much as the sun.
- You are having trouble swallowing.
- You are weaker than usual.
- You have questions about your disease, medicine, and treatment.
- You are having trouble breathing.
- You are very sad, and feel that you cannot cope with your disease.
- You have a fever.

Identical IP address detected in network
Hi, I am using 18.104.22.168 on two computers in a home network. Both are running XP SP3 with no windows updates beyond SP3. They also have static IPs. My modem also has reserved a DHCP range for wireless products i.e. mobile phone and wifi laptops.
I am noticing that I am getting a lot of "Identical IP address detected in network" notifications in my ess4 log: Identical IP address detected in network, source = 192.168.1.3, target = 192.168.1.2, protocol = arp This is obviously causing my loss of connectivity when transferring files between the two pcs. When I have eset firewall disabled I have clean connectivity. I also tried it with ess5.x and the same issue occurs. I have tried to exclude IP address from IDS but cant seem to find that option in 188.8.131.52 Would anyone know what is going on? I've read similar posts on this forum but still nothing works. Is there any reason for IP conflict to occur? Mine is a simple little network, and this issue is a constant pain. Many thanks V |
Re: Identical IP address detected in network
You mentioned that your modem is handling the DHCP functionality, but is it a possibility that you also have another device (perhaps a router) that has DHCP enabled? Thanks, Matt
Resources: ESET ? blog ? documentation ? FAQs ? knowledge base |
Re: Identical IP address detected in network
Hi Matt,
Thanks for the reply. My network is a simple little home network. I have a Billion 7800N ADSL2+ Firewall Router which combines the functionality of an ADSL modem, ADSL2/2+ router and Ethernet network switch all in one box. The 7800N modem/router has DHCP enabled on x.x.x.10 - x.x.x.20 for wireless devices. My two main computers contain static ip addresses x.x.x.2 and x.x.x.3 and are wired to the 7800N's Ethernet switch. The static ip addresses have been manually entered into each of the two PCs i.e. the 7800N doesn't handle them via MAC address recognition. I also have a network printer with static IP x.x.x.253 wired to the 7800N's Ethernet switch. The 7800N is on x.x.x.254. I have rebooted all devices, including modem, and still get that ip conflict. I have recently changed ip x.x.x.3 to x.x.x.4 and so far things seem ok and no conflict seems to be occurring. I'll see how that goes for the time being, but would like to know the cause of the conflict nevertheless. One question, is it possible to exclude IP address from IDS in 220.127.116.11? I can't see that option anywhere. Thanks for any help. Kindest regards, V |

"People don't buy what you do, they buy what you believe." April 26, 2012
Posted by Mike Gospe in Leadership, Positioning.Tags: Leadership, positioning statement
add a comment
I've been watching Simon Sinek giving a TED talk. This phrase comes from him. And I love it. This dovetails exactly with the positioning statement.
What he says in 20 minutes, speaks volumes about good, product positioning and meaningful customer-ready messaging. He paints a picture he calls "the golden circle" that includes the What, How, and Why of a company's reason for being. Most companies, he says, are very familiar with "what" they do. They are even good at understanding "how" they do it. But, when it comes to "why" they do what they do, there is a pause. What's their purpose? What are the beliefs that drives a company to do what it does? Are they in business just to make money, or are they driven by a belief shared by all employees?
He shares an example contrasting Gateway with Apple. Both companies have access to capital, access to brilliant minds and innovative staff, and can tap into the same market conditions. Yet, the way these two companies communicate are completely opposite. And their relevant success is obvious to everyone.
Gateway might produce marketing messages that look and feel like this:
1. We make great computers.
2. They are simple to use and affordable .
3. Want to buy one?
Sounds pretty bland, right? Now Apple. Their messaging might be summarized like this:
1. Everything we do, we believe in challenging the status quo. We believe in thinking differently.
2. The way we challenge the status quo is in hiring people who share the same belief and by making products that are beautifully designed and easy to use.
3. We make computers, phones, and a variety of personal productivity tools that challenge the status quo. Want to buy one?
The secret is that Apple focuses on the "why" question first.
Simon also shares the example of Samuel P. Langley vs the Wright brothers. Langley was driven to become rich and famous and saw the invention of the airplane as a goal to achieve his wealth. Orville and Wilbur believed that flight would change the world. They didn't work for a paycheck. They worked for a belief. This is exactly why the world knows the Wright brothers and don't know Langley.
The lesson is clear: when you draft your company's positioning and messaging, start with the "why". What do you believe? Because if you don't know, then your customers won't either.

A true story: A luminary and well-respected leader was invited to attend a critical board meeting of a Silicon Valley start-up. The executive team had feverishly worked to reinvent and reposition the company, and this meeting was their one chance to gain a critical endorsement. With introductions completed, the CEO and VP of Marketing began to relay the genesis of the start-up with eagerness and passion.

Finally the large tin is here!
I have long wished that Ocado would sell the larger Marigold tin of bouillon powder, and now it's finally here! Just wish that there would be a larger difference in kg price, compared to the small tin.

Konrad Reuland
Biography: Notre Dame transfer used as a part-time starter the past two seasons. Senior totals included 21/209/1 after 6/142 as a junior.
Positives: "Nice sized tight end who is best as a blocker. Quickly gets off the line, stays square, and is strong at the point of attack. Works to bend his knees, shows good vision, and stays with assignments. Blocks down well on opponents. Uses his hands to get separation from opponents and effectively adjusts to the errant throw catching the ball." Negatives: Displays marginal quickness. Fights the ball and unnecessarily lets passes get inside him. Not fluid in his movements. Analysis: Reuland is a size prospect who could make a roster as a third tight end brought onto the field in short-yardage situations. Projection: FA

Posted: 12:27 p.m. Sunday, July 28, 2013
Chinga Chang Records CEO Dan Herman tells RumorFix that he covered the damages Amanda Bynes did to a woman's home, because he didn't want her sued.
Dan tells us, he's already paid $300 and it could cost a total of $1,000 to get Bonnie Bratten's driveway back to normal.
Either Dan is looking for publicity or really cares about the troubled star, who is in a psychiatric ward in Ventura County undergoing evaluation.
In June, Dan told us he had a deal with Amanda to do a rap record, but she dissed him on Twitter and alluded to the fact that she was working with Waka Flocka Flame, so he pulled his offer.
Then he came back a few weeks ago and offered a $200,000 advance — she wrote about it on her Vanity Fair column and said that he gave her an advance to do a spoken word album of John Asbery works. Her column caught everyone off guard even John's people who asked Dan, "Is this a joke?"
So, we've got to ask — why would Dan help her again?

Rich red walls cast a warm spell over diners seated at tables swaddled in white cloths, where they await steaming platters of the aromatic Indian cuisine that emerges from the kitchen at Tandoori Chef 2. Inside, chefs whip up a diverse repertoire of Northern Indian curry, tandoori, and rice dishes brimming with spice-laden veggies, chicken, shrimp, and lamb. A private dining area fills up to 30 bellies, and catering services bring the kitchen's nourishing warmth to party-goers or ravenous sasquatches grown too tall to fit through the front door.
Every little girl is a princess, and the glitterati at Parteaz work hard to ensure that every girl knows it. Inside the pink-washed play space, girls aged 2–6 indulge in a magical experience that transforms them into faux royalty for the day. Dressed in tutus and fuzzy pink tiaras, little ladies can sip from china tea sets as sunlight filters in through sparkly curtains, illuminating their fresh crystal tattoos. During the spa experience youngsters receive age-appropriate facials and manicures before creating personalized spa products. Guests can also dip fruits and other treats into the chocolate fountain. Parteaz also opens its doors for baby showers, nine varieties of birthday parties, and variety of events and classes.
The color purple can symbolize royalty or nobility, and Purple Carpet Entertainment kept that in mind when choosing its striking signature textiles. It provides event rentals and services that can heighten a festive event to the level of Hollywood royalty, with custom red-carpet-style backdrops, striking theatrical lighting, DJs, emcees, and vacuum cleaners cleverly disguised as Sharon Stone's cousin Jeremy.
The staffers at Brainiac's Childcare don't just care for youngsters—they give them an academic leg up. Between the hours of 7 a.m. and 7 p.m., they lead children aged 6 weeks to 5 years through fun, supervised activities that impart age-appropriate skills, such as phonics and language comprehension, and also provide important social interaction. Programs include full-day kindergarten and before- and afterschool care, as well as fitness-focused classes in dance and soccer. Supervised evening childcare allows parents to enjoy adults-only activities, such as riding roller coasters with height requirements.

How do Hostels work in Europe?
One thing I would add about chains: sometimes the hostel in City A can book you into a hostel from the same chain in City B, even though that hostel shows as booked up on the web reservation systems. I did this for Wombats in particular, and some other one that I don't remember. Really saved me. |

Avoiding the traveller's 'fanny pack' / money-belt
The other historical factor here is that there used to be paper airline tickets, which you could not lose and were worth hundreds of dollars. It was often suggested that you carry them on you at all times, and moneybelts seem to be sized for them rather than currency. |

Which website to use when choosing local US flights?
Some of them do tweak it a bit to try to cover the airlines that don't use the central reservation systems. For instance, Kayak used to load the Southwest timetable into their system so they could show that the flights existed, but they didn't have pricing or availability. |

...that two musicians were responsible for the invention of color print film? Fascinated by photography, Leopold Godowsky and Leopold Mannes worked together to produce an easy-to-use, practical color film. They worked full time as music teachers and gave concerts while experimenting during their off hours in Mannes' kitchen. Their success earned them full-time, well-paying jobs at Kodak and their efforts resulted in Kodachrome film, which was introduced in 1935.

I just purchased a perfect set of Mazda3 wheels for my 2010 Tucson.
They're the right size - 50mm offset, 17x6, 5x114 bolt pattern, and even the right centerbore of 67.1mm. The Hyundai centercap even snaps right into these mazda wheels. I may need 1/4" spacers, however. So FYI - first-gen Mazda3 wheels should fit. |

For about three months I've been searching for acceptable 17" wheels on Craigslist. Nearly every day, over breakfast, I type in four or five search terms from my "wish list". I only buy if it's a screaming deal and no hassle. I never pay more than $200 for a set of used alloy wheels. At $300, used wheels are essentially the same price as new. (Tire Rack has generic alloy wheels for $400 a set. Add $100 for shipping. Any private wheels add $100 for tire mounting and up to $50 for extra parts like lugs and centering rings.) |

OK, so I finally installed the wheels this weekend.
There is only about 2mm clearance between the brake caliper and wheel spoke. It's VERY tight. However, this seems to be the minimum recommended clearance and we've had no problems so far. I was going to buy 3mm spacers for the front but it seems I don't need them. The centerbore is exact. It's very reassuring to watch them sung up tightly as the lugs are tightened. Also, the stock lugs have about 10.5 turns, far above the minimum 7 for safe engagement. So I have to say, these are perfect winter wheels. Mazda 3s are basically everywhere, so these 17s should be around for a long time on the used market. A fantastic outcome. |

People love to tell me, "Life is about balance." Unfortunately, I tossed that saying out the window many years ago after I left the friendly confines of undergrad life in Boulder, Colorado. That's when balance appeared to leave, replaced by the ebb and flow of life. Some days insanely busy, others relaxing enough that you can tolerate the oftentimes turbulent ways of reality. As I currently experience my own personal down time, a week away on the Celebrity Solstice, I've found the "balance equation" dramatically tilted in my favor unlike ever before. I have a tremendous staff on the ship that takes care of my every need. There are pools and relaxation areas at every corner. A casino to fulfill any gambling vices. A theater for entertainment. An internet cafe so I can blog. And some of the best food I've ever tasted in my life (and enough protein to fill my dreams..and that of Alan Aragon).
All of this makes my day's almost too good to be true, and a much needed change of pace from what I typically do. But its also presented a different problem: What about exercise? As fitness editor, it's essential that I not only share the information from some of the brightest minds in the world, but also practice what I preach. So even when relaxing and my life's balance is tipped in my favor, there still seems like there's no time to exercise (because I'd rather be relaxing). But that's just another excuse. I'm lucky that the ship has a exercise facility with enough equipment to fulfill my needs. But no matter where you are, it's still easy to squeeze in a workout, whether it includes weights, cardio, or just bodyweight movements. I already mentioned in my last post that some of my exercise is fulfilled with other activities, like swimming and basketball. But resistance training is still the best way to build muscle and lose fat (yes, even better than traditional cardio).
Today, the need for fitness was even greater than usual. While I typically find a way to avoid the lure of many of the treats on the ship, I stopped by Bistro on Five (a specialty restaurant on the ship), and enjoyed crepes, crepes, and more crepes. That meant heading to the gym for an afternoon upper body session followed by some conditioning. This week I've split my workouts between full body days, upper body, and lower body workouts. Here's today's workout. In each circuit, rest 30 seconds between exercises, and then rest 2 minutes after completing the entire circuit before repeating again.
Dynamic warmup: 10 minutes of total body exercises
Circuit 1:
1A)Flat dumbbell bench press 4 x 10
1B) Weighted pullups 4 x 8
1C)Planks 4 x 60 second holds
2A) Incline bench press 3 x 6
2B) Dumbbell rows 3 x 10
2C) Cross-body mountain climbers 3 x 45 seconds
3A)YTWLI 2 x 12 reps each
3B) Swiss ball rollouts
Conditioning: Treadmill sprints: 30 seconds sprint/30 second jog–8 intervals

What Caliber of Player Will Be Available to the New York Mets in the Draft?
By Stephen Smith ,
Andrew McCutchen was drafted 11th overall by Pittsburgh in 2005
The NFL season is now over, and pitchers and catchers report to spring training next week. That's always a wonderful thing to read, isn't it?
The annual Major League Baseball amateur draft is not until June, and the New York Mets own the 11th overall selection. They've never had the 11th pick before in team history. Now would be a good time to reflect on some previous No. 11 overall selections and see what caliber of player has been available at that pick in the past.
The MLB amateur draft dates all the way back to 1965, when outfielder Rick Monday of the Kansas City Athletics was the first player chosen. Monday ended up spending his best seasons with the Cubs and Dodgers.
Stanford University right-hander Mark Appel is considered the top prospect in this year's draft. Appel was selected eighth overall in 2012 by Pittsburgh but returned to Stanford instead of signing with the Pirates.
So just how good were the players who were selected in years past with the 11th overall pick in the draft? Quite honestly, the list is not that overly impressive. However, there have been some excellent players chosen in the 11th slot. Maybe the Mets will nab one in June. Let's take a look at the all-time top five.
The St. Louis native debuted in 2008 with the Diamondbacks and, despite posting an 0-4 record, showed a great deal of promise. He had a 3.05 ERA in 16 appearances, including seven starts, and fanned 66 batters in 56 innings (10.9 SO/9).
That excellent strikeout rate in his rookie campaign was an omen of things to come.
After suffering through a sophomore slump in which he posted a 9-11 ledger with a 4.12 ERA, the hard-throwing right-hander was traded to Detroit as part of a blockbuster three-team deal that sent Curtis Granderson to the Yankees, Ian Kennedy and Edwin Jackson to Arizona and Scherzer, along with three others, to the Tigers.
Scherzer has since blossomed in the Motor City, going 43-27 in three seasons, including a 16-7 record last season with a 3.74 ERA for the American League champs. His 11.1 SO/9 ratio led the American League, and he finished second in the AL with 231 strikeouts.
Scherzer is in his prime at age 28 and should be a solid starter in Jim Leyland's rotation for years to come.
Weiss burst onto the scene for an up-and-coming A's team in 1987 by hitting a robust .462 in just 26 at-bats. He followed that up by winning the American League Rookie of the Year Award in 1988 and helping the A's capture the World Series title the following season.
The University of North Carolina product did not finish with a stellar lifetime batting average (.258), but he played 14 seasons in the majors, made the All-Star team with Atlanta in 1998 and was the defensive glue on many winning squads as a slick-fielding shortstop.
Weiss finished in the top five in fielding percentage among shortstops six times and was fourth in shortstop assists four times. He was very steady, if not spectacular.
The A's never would have brought home a World Series trophy in 1989 without him.
The fleet-footed outfielder was drafted by the Padres in 1984, but his career really blossomed after he was acquired by the Minnesota Twins in the 1989 Rule 5 draft.
Mack batted just .241 in two abbreviated seasons with San Diego, but once he landed in the Twin Cities in 1990, his talent was on full display. He batted .326 in 313 at-bats in 1990 and then helped the Twins win the World Series in 1991 by batting .310 with 18 HR and 74 RBI.
Mack enjoyed his finest overall major league campaign the following season by batting .315 with 16 home runs and a career-high 75 RBI. He added 26 stolen bases and led the league by being hit with a pitch 15 times. He was fourth in the American League in hits (189) and seventh in runs scored (101).
When it was all said and done, Mack carved out a very fine career for himself. He just missed hitting .300 overall (.299) and played nine seasons before retiring with the Royals in 1998.
He'll always sport that championship ring, as well. A lot of players wish they could do that.
Simply put, Andrew McCutchen is one of the best players in all of Major League Baseball.
And he's only getting better.
After being selected 11th overall by the Pirates in 2005, the Fort Meade, Fla. native exploded onto the scene with Pittsburgh on June 4, 2009, and he's been a joy to watch ever since.
After batting .286 in his first two seasons, the five-tool outfielder saw his average dip to .259 in 2011, but he showed increased power with 23 HR and 89 RBI. Last season? Well, 2012 was off the charts.
McCutchen finished third in the National League MVP voting, made his second All-Star team in a row and came in second in the NL batting race (.327). He led the league in hits (194), smashed 31 home runs, knocked in 96 runs and stole 20 bases. McCutchen ranked third in slugging percentage in the NL (.553) and third in OBP (.400) while also winning a Gold Glove and a Silver Slugger award.
How good was he in center field last year? McCutchen committed one error all season long. One. He has outstanding range and has a plethora of highlight reel catches.
Heck, he probably could have tried out as a wide receiver for the Steelers and made the team.
McCutchen is that good–and he's still just 26 years old.
The sky is the limit.
A four-time All-Star, Greg "The Bull" Luzinski was one of the most feared power hitters in the National League in the 1970's. He teamed with Mike Schmidt to give the Fightin' Phils one of the best home run duos in baseball.
A strong, powerfully built right-handed-hitting outfielder, Luzinski hit 307 home runs and had 1,128 RBI during his 15-year career with the Phils and White Sox, including some of the longest round-trippers ever hit at Veterans Stadium in Philadelphia. He was also a force on the road: I remember a game at Shea Stadium that I attended as a teenager, in which he belted a home run off southpaw Jerry Koosman that still has not landed.
Luzinski hit 30 or more home runs in a season four times, drove in over 100 runs four times (including a league-leading 120 RBI with the Phillies in 1975) and concluded his career with a .478 slugging percentage. He also had a very respectable .276 lifetime batting average.
Luzinski was a member of the 1980 World Series-champion Phillies contingent that defeated the Kansas City Royals in six games. He was purchased by the White Sox in March 1981 and was a solid designated hitter for four seasons with the Chisox before calling it quits in 1984 after belting 84 home runs for the South Siders.
Luzinski's "Bull's BBQ" is one of the most popular dining establishments at Citizens Bank Park in the City of Brotherly Love.

The Mobile World Congress 2009 (MWC 2009) is still two weeks away and Garmin and Asus already detonate a major announcement. Garmin and ASUSTeK today announced a strategic alliance to make Garmin-Asus branded location-centric mobile phones.
The new Garmin-Asus nüvifone series will feature several models in 2009 starting with the Garmin-Asus G60. The original Garmin nüvifone that was announced in 2008 will be actually re-branded as the Garmin-Asus nüvifone G60.
The Garmin-Asus nüvifone G60 is expected to be delivered in the first half of 2009, and additional information about the Garmin-Asus nüvifone G60 will be released at the Mobile World Congress 2009.
The LBS functionality is core to the Garmin-Asus nüvifone series, which will offer the same
turn-by-turn, voice-prompted navigation features found on high-end Garmin portable navigation devices (PND).
The Garmin-Asus phones have preloaded maps and millions of points of interest that allow drivers to quickly find a specific street address, establishment's name or search for a destination by category. In addition, the nüvifone includes quick access to online points of interest through internet enabled local search. The nüvifone harnesses the power of the worldwide web and information about local merchants and attractions is continually updated.
The nüvifone also features Ciao!, a social networking application that bridges the gap between multiple location based social networks and integrates them seamlessly into one device.
Garmin and Asus will hold a press-conference today to reveal more details on this partnership. This sounds like a good move for Garmin. Making their own smartphones would have been a big risk. Partnering with Asus who has already made some smartphones make sense.

I've tried reamers and a couple other brands of juicer, and this is one of the most-effective (and seemingly durable). The gear mechanism gives a lot of force, and the plastic used feels strong with a little flex towards the end of the squeeze. The only breaking points I'd worry about so far are the metal pins at the hinges.Other concerns: this is really better for small citrus, oranges and grapefruit have to be quartered or cut even smaller to fit. see less

I have a lemon tree that produces so many lemons I can hardly keep up with getting them off the tree. I used to manually juice them which was tiring and slow. Then I borrowed my neighbor's L-press. Well, I've borrowed it 3 times now because I love it. My six-year -old has learned how to use it -- all I have to do is slice the lemons in half for her and she can juice 20 lemons in no time at all. The juicer is very high quality, easy to clean, the cup holds a lot of juice, and using it is absolutely fool proof. Anyone who doesn't think so isn't using it properly. Sorry, but it's true. Now I'm going to buy my own because I feel guilty borrowing it all the time! Oh, and it's the best deal on the market. see less

The price was attractive, but that's it. At full open it was difficult to insert half a decent sized grapefruit. It handled half a tangerine and medium sized orange. It left a lot of juice in the meat even when the handle was pressed down hard. Cleaning was a pain -- had to rotate the top plate such that it cleared tabs to be able to be lifted out, and the bottom plate had to be unscrewed with several turns. I may have these reversed -- I don't have it anymore to look at. Thank goodness Target dot com allows returns to a store without the hassle and cost of shipping. My store accepted the return graciously. That option, in fact, encourages me to order from Target dot com with confidence in just this kind of instance where I don't have experience with a product. Btw, I'm not a shill for Target. [...] see less

The liquor store is open later than the churches
from Macklemore and Ryan Lewis (Ft. Allen Stone & Macklemore) – Neon Cathedral Lyrics on Rap Genius

He also feels that the liquor store is there for him when he needs help, more than the church who "shuns" him in his darkest hours.
There are dozens of Bible verses pertaining to wine and alcohol, some of which are truly beautiful.
