Yoga and Pilates are famously barefoot workouts, so you might wonder why you would wear toe socks to do them? The first obvious answer: We wear socks when our feet are cold, or we want to protect our feet from a surface, or a surface from our feet.
Then, there are the sleeves for each toe. Unusual looking? Yes. Hard to get used to? Briefly. But individuality is good for your toes. They should be able to function independently as you move and a little separation between them is healthy. I actually like the separated toes. I have worn mine to workout in, and I have worn them with shoes - all day, and it feels fine. The non slip element you get with the grip on ToeSox is really important for Pilates or yoga because the last thing you want to do is slip as you exercise with socks on. They do make toe socks without the non skid sole but you need the grip. It doesn't get in your way or stifle movement.
So far, ToeSox are my favorite non-slip socks. About.com's guide to yoga has given them a thumbs up review too. They are very form-fitting and I feel more secure in them than I do in just plain non slip socks. I also appreciate that ToeSox are made from mostly organic cotton. The non-slip, combined with the toe separation, combined with the stripes and bright colors makes ToeSox fun and functional. Fun - as in I crack up every time I look at my feet!
Full ToeSox with Grip: $15.00
- Sizes: XXS - XL
- Colors and Stripes
- Full or Half Toe
- Grip or No Grip

Banking Reform in China: An Assessment in Macroeconomic Perspective
AbstractChina has been delaying its adoption of a flexible exchange rate system with free capital flows. The main excuse is that its financial sector is still in its fragile stage and is not able to withstand any external shocks. A big bang approach towards such liberalization will only lead to financial crisis as observed by experiences of many Asia-Pacific countries during the Asian Financial Crisis. With this in mind, this paper attempts to uncover the approach and strategies adopted by China in its banking reform since 1978 and then assess these reform measures in macroeconomic perspective. The paper argues that since China is still lingering on export-oriented strategy in promoting economic growth and monetary independence for demand management is still a long way to go, it is still in China's best interest not to adopt a flexible exchange rate system at this point of time. As to capital account liberalization, the main focus is to engineer a controlled and systematic capital outflows through outward investment in particular portfolio investment. At the micro level, China should continue its banking reforms until the financial sector is strong enough to withstand the severe pressure of globalization. By then, will China, with its matured financial system be ready to consider the adoption of a flexible exchange system with free capital flows.

Rumours had been swirling for a while but late last month, Kanye West stated once again that he is part of the team (the creative director in fact) that is hoping to create a feature-length Jetsons film.
Can someone please explain why a contemporary pop star is being allowed near the hallowed animated property that is The Jetsons? Did nobody learn the lesson from the last time, no? Clearly not; pop star Tiffany was widely derided for her creative 'input' in the 1990 feature film starring George & co.
What could Kanye contribute anyway? If it is something akin to what Sean 'Jay-Z' Carter is credited for with Baz Luhrman's The Great Gatsby, I think I'll pass. Believe it or not, it is possible to ruin a period piece set in the future.
Would a Jetsons movie be better if it was played straight, i.e. as the retro-futuristic perfection that it is? This plays eerily into that unnerving desire to 'update' classic cartoons in order to appear 'hip' to the kids of today. Sadly that is a fallacy that has been proven over and over again.
Come to think of it, allowing Seth McFarlane to undertake a Flintsones feature is starting to sound downright appealing...
ZZDas | July 15, 2013 2:22 PM
Come on guys...didn't you saw that coming?
Remember that Hype Williams "Heartless - by Kanye West" video [ http://youtu.be/Co0tTeuUVhU?t=2m28s ] ? Nothing it's random folks...Besides, it's just an animation promoting itself with a "onTop" artist. Think of it as a paralel universe and move on...
ILDC | July 14, 2013 4:41 PM
I hate to say it, but Robert Rodriguez was a better choice.
KBC | July 11, 2013 2:31 PM
As noted below, Kanye was an art and design student. He actually has an interest in the retro-futuristic minimalist design style The Jetsons is associated with, and serving as creative director for a live-action adaptation doesn't seem too far off. It's a far different situation than Tiffany's involvement in "Jetsons: The Movie".
As far as the person who brought up "Black Skinhead", Kanye announced that the video had been posted before it was done, and there's a completed/revised version coming soon
Christian B.D | July 11, 2013 12:18 AM
Kanye's a very artful rapper, looking at his music videos that seem to just be oozing with creativity. I would actually like to see what Kanye contributes to the Jetsons movie, since it's his favorite cartoon. I don't think Kanye will do the soundtrack though, isn't he a fashion head?
Brigador | July 10, 2013 9:37 PM
Um obviously you NOT see his latest music video Black Skinhead...done in some crappy CGI I can only image how terrible Jetson remake will be, and you can NOT give West any type of creative credit for Bill Plymtons work. In response to comment below.
Floyd Bishop | July 10, 2013 8:22 PM
Kanye won a scholarship to an art school in Chicago, and was interested in becoming an animator. He has incorporated a lot of animation into his videos in the past, including a video created by Bill Plympton. This could be a similar creative side step like when Clint Eastwood started directing films instead of just acting in them.
Incredible how he full everybody. He stole my rights in Cow and Chicken also in Lost Cat. He is not
Nice. Kinda wish they included Frank Tashiln, though.

I am heartbroken, devastated and beyond tears. I learned today that Miss Wrisley died in November. I had known her for nearly 40 years. She taught music at the boarding school and when we met, I was an immature teen in great need. She taught me how to sing and to play several instruments and the music room became my refuge. We talked, walked and sang together.
Even these many years later, we wrote letters and traded cards, always about music and always with love. I lack the words to express the profound difference she made in my life. There are teachers who make a difference, whose influence is such that the student becomes a different and better person than they would have otherwise become.
Knowing she is in heaven singing with the angels is of little comfort tonight, but I will find comfort in that thought some time in the future.
I joined the 28 day challenge with high hopes and great ambition only to be laid low by the worst cold I have had in 3 years. I have yet to do one day of the video exercises or much else on the challenge. In the past, that would have been enough for me to give up. I would have said all kinds of unkind things to myself, things that I would not say to someone else or allow someone to say to themselves. The cold was made worse by a drug interaction and it will be a few more days before I get back into my full routine.
My wonderful SparkFriend Chaotickitty has been in a small funk since Christmas and her birthday. She has been far more disciplined or strict about her food intake than I have. To my way of thinking, perhaps too strict, but we each have to walk our own journey, so it would be wrong for me to judge her. She has been ready to throw in the towel both because of holidays, birthday, food in the house, a spouse who is not as strict with his food and she has had what sounds like just the same cold as I have had. In an attempt to encourage her, I posted a comment on her blog saying that perfection is not the goal, but progress is.
Striving for perfection is often admired in others. Too often, the pursuit of perfection becomes warped. Just as our sense of food portions gets distorted, so too striving for perfection leads us astray. Eventually, the perfection of the thing - whether it's being the best diver, the best writer, the best whatever is replaced with perfection of the process and the goal becomes elusive and unattainable. If not recalibrated, the true talents never reach their highest ability and that best seller never gets written, the promising athlete never reaches Olympic glory...
In my attempt to help Chaotickitty, I had to think about the role perfection has played in my life. This is not the forum to delve into events of childhoold, but suffice to say that if perfection was not achieved, the task was not worth doing - at least that is what I learned.
There was no point in learning how to do physical things because, with my handicap, they could never be done perfectly. There was no point in learning to do math because girls were not supposed to be good at it. But what does this have to do with my SP journey?
It means that I do not have to lose pounds as quickly as anyone else. I do not have to run marathons like everyone else. But it means I must figure out what my parameters really should be. It also means I need to push the boundaries that have been there all my life - test them to see if they really are valid or if they need to be reset. It means I need to know myself better than I presently do. I need to challenge my body, my heart, my mind. Exactly of what am I capable?
I will take up running again, I will continue to walk and I will work on strength training. I will continue the good eating and the water intake. And if there are days when I spike in carbs or calories, that does not mean I have failed. All it means is that life happens. The journey is part of the success and, as long as I have more days when I follow this path than not, progress continues. It is not all or nothing. It is an evolution from a couch potato, inactive unhealthy life to one full of energy, health and vibrancy.
I am not saying this well, but it is not any better to change slavery to sugar and fat to slavery to the numbers on a scale or calories. Life is richer and fuller than that and I aim to claim my piece of it!
The light dawned late. On Saturday, I took a decongestant pill and a swig of cough syrup in an effort to beat this cold into submission. Generally, I take half of a normal dosage for even over the counter drugs such as these were. I had no such thought on Saturday and suspect that it was a combination of the "normal" dosage and the combination that left me loopy and nonfunctioning.
We had errands to do on Sunday, but I did not feel safe to get behind the wheel, so we stayed home. I still felt disconnected and "wobbly" today, so I came home after my noon Toastmaster meeting at the VA.
Somehow, I managed to get in 45 minutes of walking. Most of that had to be at the VA. They are doing construction and will be for years, so I park quite a distance away and walk to the building where the meetings are held. I look forward to the walk!
My SparkFriend Jhadzia is having elbow replacement surgery tomorrow. She has a severe and painful case of rhumatoid arthritis. It is unclear how much communication via typing she will be able to do and she posted something of a farewell blog this evening. I really hope this is not the end of our Spark friendship - my life is richer for knowing her, even if the relationship is just via the internet. I hope the surgery goes well, that her recovery is full and complete and that her arm and elbow work better than they did before and that she can continue being a part of my SP family...
This cold is a doozy. I cannot walk straight, cannot think straight. I think the combination of the cold meds are not doing me any favors. I have taken nothing today and my head is still quite foggy. We had errands to do today, but I don't feel sharp enough to get behind the wheel, so I will have to do it tomorrow after work...I hate to do that, but I have no choice.
I've dropped another pound overnight. It's the cold and lack of appetitte. The weight will come back.
I worked at a company for almost 15 years and left it nearly 10 years ago when I got one of those unbelieveably good offers. But I kept in touch with Company #1 and was sad to see the company close its doors last March. One of my former coworkers just started a new job this week. He is flying to Australia for training! I am so happy for him, so thankful for his family that he got this job and a tiny bit jealous that he gets to go to Australia!
I am dizzy, so I will end it here...
As I write this, the Jets have just beat the Colts and the Saints lost to the Seahawks earlier today. I feel like a jinx - the teams I like are losing! Actually, having lived in Alaska, the Seahawks are one of my teams, too, but I was rooting for the Saints because my VP is from Louisiana.
My cold has only worsened. I was wobbly today and did not move any more than I had to. I feel as if I had taken some knock out drugs or consumed a ton of alcohol, but I have done neither. This is a really weird cold!
The layoffs have continued and I don't know when it will be over, so I am not complacent at all. My boss has been sending a really strange vibe, but we have not talked about anything other than urgent business stuff so it will probably come up when I have my personnel review, which could be any time now. I just pray I am not on the layoff list.
No exercise today. I had planned to take a nice long walk today, but, being wobbly on my feet did not dare. I am well under on calories - no appetite. BF has the same cold so we have been coughing in unison...
Thanks to all of you who have commented on my blogs and on my page.
Prayers for those injured and for the families of those killed in the shooting in Arizona today...

Number of ratings 196 / Average Grade: A Submit a correction
Very nice, tries to help as much as possible; puts notes online. THIS CLASS REQUIRES A LOT OF STUDYING. Online homework is essential to understanding the material, do not wait until the end to do it. Drops lowest test grade, usually curves, & online homework has very helpful extra credit. Don't take in summer, WAY too much info for 6 weeks.
Huchital was an amazing teacher. Definitely take him for General Chemistry. He also has an amazing TA named Jay who is superb at teaching. He is only an undergrad, yet he talks like he has a Ph.D in Chemistry. Overall, a wonderful experience.
Huchital is a good professor and fives a bunch of extra credit. Had to study a lot for the exams but he curves. Got a 69,85,88,83 and 100 on the final. He takes questions directly from the problem sets earlier during the semester for his final! Got an A in the class.
CHEM I and II
Dr. Huchital is a fantastic professor! Chemistry is a hard subject. However, Dr. Huchital teaches with such passion and simplicity! Lectures go super fast but he provides notes before class. USE HIS OFFICE HOURS! Go to the SI sessions, review sessions, do OWL, read the textbook and you will do excellent! Tons of extra credit! Great class overall!
Chem 2 is crazy intense compared to Chem 1. Dr. Huchital is very generous in that if you underperform on his exams theres always ways to make up the points. Pass at least 1 exam with a grade of B or C and do all/most of OWL plus get Clicker points and you are guaranteed an A or A-. I got an A in Chem 1 and B+ in Chem 2 but could have worked harder!
I am already accepting the fact that I will not have as good as a Chemistry Professor as Dr. Huchital in the future. He did what he could to throw the material out there. He definitely gave plenty of extra credit opportunities to boost your grade up by one letter grade. Take advantage of this. Received an A in the class.
Took Dr Huch for Chem 1 & 2. Chem 2 is extremely difficult...but he is SO helpful and offers a lot of opportunities for grade boosting. Get your iClicker pts and KEEP UP WITH OWL! I thought I was going to get a C and I ended up with an A-! VERY generous & understanding. Take Dr Huchital and pace yourself with the material. Good luck :)
Dr. Huchital is a wonderful professor who always takes his time answering any question either in class, in his office, or by email. His exams requires ample studying and going to class is required for iclicker points. He gives plenty of oppurtunities to do well with the HW and extra credit not to mention a curve. Just don't slack off!
Chem 2
Chem 2 is no joke. You have to study and put time into the class. Huchital's test are brutal. But if you go to the FREE reviews that huchital provides (held by a Jay) and do practice problems you will be more than fine. Go to class for I clicker, and do every single problem on owl. Huch is very fair with grading! Super nice guy! Chem is just hard!!
goes too fast when explaining problems and is not very detailed in his explanations. i had to pay extra money for tutoring to actually learn something for my tests.
Someone said this is a weed out class. Nope. Orgo is a weed out class. Hutchital makes his tests very hard but curves every grade. Questions are almost all from the textbook, but people think that there is no point in doing the textbook problems. Do all of them, and you will not only do well in this class but have good habits for future CHM courses
Wonderful teacher. Studied a lot for this class because I am pre-med, but he is helpful and gives a lot of chances to raise grades.
Excellent teacher and loves teaching. He throws some funny stories in with his teaching. Fair grader! Do the Homework and all extra-credit and you'll be fine!
This is a weed-out class, so be prepared. a lot of material in a short time. Huchital is not the most clear professor, and he does go over stuff fast. BUT HE CURVES!! I should have gotten a B, but with all the extra credit, OWL, and iClicker I got an A! Do your OWL homeowrk and iClicker, they would help in the long run. go to SI sessions also.
My test average was 50% but with the OWL homework, Iclicker, and bonding it brought me up to a B. DO OWL!
DO OWL! DO EXTRA CREDIT GO TO CLASS FOR ICLICKER. I got a 77, 35, 47 and 71 on the final and passed the class with an A-. DO NOT DROP IF YOU FAIL 2 tests
Chem 1
Dr. Huchital is great! I've never been a chem person, but I took it with him and got an A. I got a 96, 85, 58, and an 88 on the final. As long as you do well on the first two tests (the 2nd is the hardest btw) you're guaranteed an A. Plenty of extra credit from OWL homework and iclicker, so go to class even if you don't understand the material.
His tests are brutal but overall he gives so many opportunities to bring your grade up. If you have never taken chem before take intro chem first cause he goes fast. I got an 86,77, and 24 on all 3 of my exams and a 66 on the final. Yes I may have gotten a 24 on an exam but by doing everything including iClicker by going to class and made an "A"!!!
I strongly recommend him for General Chemistry. Though the tests are challenging, he gives plenty of extra credit to make up for it. My test grades were 74,81,67, and an 81 on the final and will be receiving an A once grades are posted. Not an easy course, but plenty of opportunity with extra credit to boost your grade up.
He is the most adorable and sweetest teacher ever. He goes over everything well but the tests are extremely hard. The class is a lot of work and it's hard but he's a great teacher.

A new look at the role of hero and villain in Ridley Scott's "Blade Runner."
Eddie Murphy's "Harlem Nights" is an uninspired cross between "The Cotton Club" and the characters of Damon Runyon, told in cliches so broad you keep waiting for it to poke fun at itself, but it never does.
The movie stars Richard Pryor as a Harlem speakeasy owner and Murphy as his adopted son, and plugs them into a plot involving the usual Mafia bosses, crooked cops and sexy dames. There is not an original idea in the movie from one end to the other.
Or maybe, come to think of it, there is one: The movie is set in 1938, and has all the right cars and clothes for that era, but the dialogue is distractingly contemporary. Murphy and Pryor are famous for their liberal use of four and 12-letter words in their comedy monologues, but did Harlem dandies in the 1930s speak like stand-up comedians in the 1980s? I don't think so. There was an elegance in those days, a certain public standard of speech and behavior, that a rich black nightclub owner would have observed; he would have acted and spoken like a gentleman.
Murphy doesn't really seem interested in re-creating the 1930s in an authentic way, however. Like Madonna and the other stars in the recent and even more dreadful "Bloodhounds of Broadway," he approaches his story more as a costume party in which everybody gets to look great while fumbling through a plot that has not been fresh since at least 1938.
The story: Pryor adopts Murphy after the lad does him a favor by shooting a tough guy who pulls a knife on him. Twenty-five years later, Pryor has prospered and is operating a Harlem nightclub that's pulling in $15,000 a week. That's when a white gangster named Bugsy Calhoune (Michael Lerner) gets interested. Working with a crooked cop (Danny Aiello) and a beautiful femme fatale (Jasmine Guy), Lerner puts pressure on Pryor and Murphy to fork over $10,000 a week in protection money.
Things look bad. But then Pryor dreams up a scheme to invest a fortune with Bugsy's bookies for the upcoming title fight, which the black champion (Stan Shaw) is expected to win. By betting on the white fighter, they'll lead Bugsy to believe they've paid the black champ to throw the fight, but then the black fighter will win, although not before Murphy and Pryor have stolen all of the bet money from Bugsy's safes.
This sort of sting operation could have been made amusing in a movie with more wit and style, but Murphy, the director and writer, moves the plot so laboriously that even the actors seem to be waiting around for something to happen. And there are giveaway scenes that exist only for the purpose of explaining otherwise obscure plot points. The big payoff scene, in which the bad guys are lured to Pryor's house, is not even remotely believable.
Meanwhile, the sexual intrigue unfolds in a particularly nasty way when Murphy and Guy make love, while each one has a pistol under the pillow and is prepared to shoot the other. Wasn't there a way to work a little romance and maybe a change of heart into this relationship, instead of having Murphy blow her brains out while she's in bed with him? Murphy is a talented and funny actor, but like all actors he needs good material to survive. His recent career has been a series of miscalculations in which Murphy's reputation has salvaged lousy material. I know that "Beverly Hills Cop II" and "Coming to America" have been among the all-time recent box office best sellers, but they hitched rides with Murphy's popularity and did not do justice to his talent. There is a time in the career of every superstar when he seems able to do no wrong. Sometimes that is the very moment when he is sowing the seeds of his downfall. Look at Burt Reynolds, who rode to the top in a series of dumb movies that destroyed his bankability.
People may go to see Eddie Murphy once, twice, three or even six times in disposable movies like "Harlem Nights," but if he wants to realize his potential he needs to work with a better writer and director than himself.
This message came to me from a reader named Peter Svensland. He and a fr...

The first time I met the FSA guys they brought along a bike equipped with this crank.
I've always been a fan of simplicity in bikes (er…sometimes) so I rode it around the block a few times to try it out. These things are pretty cool, and the potential applications are numerous.
Got a derailleur hanger-less track frame, but want one more gear for hills? Easily accomplished, it's now a dinglespeed.
Want a 22 speed bike with a single speed look? Throw a Shimano Alfine 11 speed internally geared hub in the back and a Patterson in the front and you'll have an incredibly wide gear range for any situation.
Want a totally ridiculous 60 (!!!) speed bike? Put a Sram Dual Drive rear hub with an 11-36 cassette on it on the rear wheel. With the 3 internal gears in the back and 2 internal gears in the front you've got one! Such a bike would have the widest gear range ever imaginable, I'm hesitant to even try to do the math on it. The handlebars might be a little busy with 2 front shifters but it should totally work! (You could do downtube shifters for the Patterson too, since any shifter will work).
Only downside to these is they are a little heavy (as with all internal gear stuff), but who cares, it's not going on your race bike is it?
Here's another great review of these, from Portland Bike Shop Joe Bike. There's also lots of great information and videos on the company site: pattersonbike.com.
Cyclone has these stocked in 160, 170, and 175mm. Part #'s CR8700, 8701 and 8702. MSRP: $299.99.

If fetuses were people, sure.
Getting past an unwanted pregnancy has nothing whatsoever to do with eugenics.
"Ahh, the liberal icon, Margaret Sanger. Look her up. Loved the nazis. Loved by Wilson and FDR. PP was set up to reduce the undesirables in society, sort of like shipping criminals off to Australia 50 years earlier, except in extraordinary numbers and without the shipping. Eugenics was a very faddish evil back then, transformed into a "right" and choice today. Fashion doesn't make it right. " A lot of people back then admired the Nazis, before we entered the war and before the Holocaust was common knowledge. Walt Disney, Henry Ford, many college professors. And whatever Sanger's personal failings she has left a wonderful legacy.
In response to:
I think this labeling is wonderful.
"It's impressive how indefatigable you anti-choice types are. FYI...the war is over. In fact, it's been over for a long time. Women will never allow Roe v Wade to be overturned. In fact, Romney lost because most women (old and young, rich and poor, black and white) believed Romney when he said he wanted Roe v Wade overturned and would de-fund Planned Parenthood. Many politicians claim anti-abortion credentials and we just roll our eyes. We know pandering when we see it. But we believed Romney, so even while being fiscal conservatives and certainly not being overly impressed with Obama, we had to vote for women's well-being. Abortion IS an economic and quality of life issue for women. " ^^^^ All this.
Many American women today simply do not have nine months in which to be an incubator. But the right's insistence on clinging to this issue helps us Dems get the lion's share of women voters, so there's that.
"Because it's unConstitutional. And this, http://usdebtclock.org/ Any more stupid questions? " Oh great more debt hysteria.
"Because it's unConstitutional. And this, http://usdebtclock.org/ Any more stupid questions? " Oh great more debt hysteria.
Well they had best find a way. Or else the community will have to lien on them a little bit. Get it? "lien"! LOL
They can't help it. They should not be called winos by those of us lucky enough to be homeful.

This was the most perfect little apt for myself, my boyfriend and another couple. The bedrooms were of equal size and both had AC! So there was no fighting over that! The leaving room also had AC. The apt had much more than we thought it would. Toaster, Blender, lots of plates and glasses. The grill on the front part was great! We used it every night. It is in walking distance to a ton of things, and 30 min bus ride to Atlantic city. 5 min walk to the beach which had no people on it. Would recommend to anyone just looking to get away for a week with no hassles!

Apple issues fourth developer preview for Mountain Lion ServerFollowing the release of OS X 10.8 Mountain Lion Developer Preview 3, Apple on Thursday seeded the latest build for the operating system's server assets.
The most recent OS X Mountain Lion Server seed, build "12S219N," comes on the heels of Wednesday's Mountain Lion client build "12A206J" and is the latest developer preview to be released in the ongoing beta testing process that is scheduled to yield a gold master ready for public consumption sometime this summer.
A number of issues to be ironed out by developers include installing apps on iOS managed devices, a sporadic Spotlight problem in Xsan and SMTP server authentication in Mail. Also of note is a directory services bug that sees clients failing to bind to non-SSL-enabled Open Directory Servers.
Developers can download OS X Mountain Lion Developer Preview 4 through Apple's Development Center.
The latest seed keeps with the monthly beta updates as the client version of OS X 10.8 Mountain Lion Developer Preview 3 was issued in April, which followed a second preview from mid-March.
Apple's next-generation operating system is set to further blur the lines between iOS and OS X with features like tighter integration with iCloud and geofence location alerts, among many others.
Mountain Lion is expected to be a tentpole topic at this year's WWDC as Apple has promised to show developers the "future of iOS and OS X" at the conference scheduled to start on June 11.
On Topic: Mac OS X
- Apple releases OS X Yosemite Public Beta 2, new iTunes 12 beta for testing
- Intuit releases redesigned Quicken 2015 for Mac, first new version in 7 years
- Apple releases Safari 7.1 and 6.2, OS X Server 3.2 betas to developers
- Apple updates pro-level video suite with fixes for Final Cut Pro X, Compressor and Motion
- Mailbox for Mac hits public beta, adds synced drafts and 'snooze to desktop' feature

While this beer is not for everyone, those that like and can handle plenty of spice will appreciate a brew in which you can feel the burn in every sip. In 1989, Ed Chilleen, known as Crazy Ed, came up with the idea of peppering his beer. He wanted to use jalapeño peppers, but they were too big, while serranos were the right size but way too hot. After discovering a hybrid serrano seed from Texas that had 50 percent less heat, the problem was solved. This beer has a light lager base, which allows the flavor and heat of the chili to shine through, as you won't taste much else. The peppers are put into each bottle by hand, and if you can manage to get it out after drinking the beer, feel free to eat the pepper. Just don't expect any heat to be left in it, for it's already been spent in the beer you just drank. Originally made in Cave Creek, Arizona, this spicy brew is now crafted in Tecate, Mexico.
Price: $8.99 for a six-pack of 12 oz.

A solution for forecasting pet chips prices for both short-term and long-term price forcasting, using genetic programming
AbstractNowadays, forecasting what will happen in economic environments plays a crucial role. We showed that in PET market how a neuro-fuzzy hybrid model can assist the managers in decision-making. In this research, the target is to forecast the same item through another intelligent tool which obeys the evolutionary processing mechanisms. Again, the item for prediction here is PET (Poly Ethylene Terephthalate) which is the raw material for textile industries and it is highly sensitive against oil price fluctuations and also some other factors such as the demand and supply ratio. The main idea is coming through AHIS model which was presented by Mojtaba Sedigh Fazli and J.F. Lebraty in 2013. In this communication, the hybrid module is substituted with genetic programming. Finally, the simulation has been conducted and compared to three different answers which were presented before the results show that Genetic programming results (acting like hybrid model) which support both Fuzzy Systems and Neural Networks, satisfy the research question considerably.

Feeling discomfort in your muscles or ligaments from overworking? Honestly' this type of pain can be debilitating. That's why it could only benefit you to consult your healthcare practitioner to see if a nutritional supplement like Liga-PN from Nutri West may be right for you. Liga-PN is formulated to potentially help soothe muscles and ligaments.
For instance' LIga-PN features magnesium and calcium . These two essential minerals each serve different but potentially complementing actions. Calcium plays a role in muscle contractions. Taking its cue from brain signals' calcium is released' eventually resulting in muscle contraction. Magnesium on the other hand' in addition to its many other health benefits' is responsible for inhibiting the channels that release calcium. This means that magnesium can act as a muscle relaxant. Both of these Liga-PN ingredients working in conjunction may be able to offer support for tired' overworked muscles.
Additionally' Liga-PN features several ingredients that may have anti-inflammatory effects . Turmeric is one such ingredient. Mainly being associated with curry' this culinary constituent may contain certain chemicals that effect swelling. Another Liga-PN ingredient that may act as an anti-inflammatory is bromelain . This substance is derived from the pineapple. Other possible anti-inflammatories include ' garlic ' skullcap ' and suma .
Liga-PN also possibly addresses certain pain issues with White Willow . This botanical contains a chemical called salicin' which may have an effect similar to aspirin.
These are only a few of the ingredients you'll find in Liga-PN. For a full list' click the "Ingredients" tab!

Miracle Supplement?
My holistic veterinarian prescribed this for my dog who was experiencing patella pain. With days of taking this his pain has obviously disappeared - and now he walks without screaming yelling or limping. I am loving this stuff
Small easy for a dog to eat
Very strong odor which my dog dislikes. I have to disguise this supplement inside something more yummy.

Doesn't the Dragon Age system use 3d6?
It does indeed.A rather different feeling, considering only the basics of attacking and dealing damage - low level monsters are really low but keep their danger level for a while longer, and boss type monsters are deathly scary pretty much forever.
It's not readily comparable to a d20-switched-to-3d6 system due to its inner variants for the magic system, class level abilities, and the stunt points system.

Otherwise a paladin would rather choose a martyr's death through starvation, staying true to his/hers code of honor and personal purity, in body, mind and spirit.
Being one of the original... patrons (before being a backer became commonplace) of Sinister Adventures timeframe, and having not folded my pledge, I can't praise enough Louis, Nick, Rich, all the awesome guys who contributed to the effort, and the fine people at Frog God games that made this possible.
Same answer from the other thread:

Well, after my disappointment in the D&D Next playtest, I fell for it, downloaded the pdf and read it (thank you tablet!).
It's actually good enough to take the place of the Rules Cyclopedia (maybe not the free pdf, but the hardbacks will surely do), as a medium-low complexity game, it does feel like the D&D I grew up with, and perhaps I'll whip up a game or two using the rules.
It's not a ruleset that entices me to cast aside other - more interesting - games, both less, equally, or more complex.
It's nice, it has the right feel, but lacks pretty much everything else that make an RPG interesting.
Let's hope that splatbook apocalypse will not kill it too soon.

Doesn't mean you have to like it.Well, I do, but I also wouldn't (or couldn't) force it on anyone.
Be extra careful with healing necessities and time needed for getting back in action. Try something alchemical to make up with the lack of magic, maybe with some fun after effects.
Same with large groups of bad guys swarming the PCs, as they'll sorely miss crowd control spells.
Take care using monsters that feature really high AC values. These take into consideration magic buffs to be properly dealt with, and relying only on class levels, feats and ability scores could be dangerous, especially at higher (8+) levels.
That said, you'll discover that player ingenuity and creativity will solve most problems, and some "fodder" monsters will take back their nastiness.
HPs (for playing characters) is a catch-it-all value that includes fatigue, stress, demoralization, and actual damage.
It's strange that a game so much concerned with combat (not just PFRPG, the whole D&D/D20 thingie since the start) it keeps chugging along such grey areas...

Note that some people say everything but a horse is an exotic mount.
I myself usually go along that baseline, but then again, the camel and the dromedary are pretty common mounts in real world cultures, and boy! they do ride quite differently than the horse, and use very different saddles and equipment.
In a fantasy world where riding dogs are common (even if only in some cultures/races), the saddle and equipment for riding a wolf should differ very little from the norm. Trained animal, tamed animal, or whatever.

Honestly I have no real arguments against it. Tabletop lingo (PC, character, etc.) was used since a while ago in most digital RPGs - both single and multiplayer - and now the digital lingo is making its way back to tabletop. The same could be said about calling low level enemies "mobs".Cross-pollination, feedback influences, whatever you want to call it.
I'm more concerned about talking about PCs/toons only as tanks, DPS, healbots and such, limiting the tabletop experience in equivalents from the digital framework and discarding or not taking in consideration anything else (social interaction, investigation) that doesn't quite compare to combat proficiency.
But that's just me.

Perhaps a little devil's advocate, but I sure would be angry if my GM saved classes for special snowflake NPCs and denied them to his PCs. The players are supposed to be the heroes, not the supporting cast.
While I absolutely agree, I also feel compelled to say that they're the heroes because of what they do, not (only) because of what they are.Important NPCs must be special as much as the playing characters, even exotic or exceedingly rare, and even moreso due to their limited playing time in a show focused on the PCs.
Players requesting to have "all the options" to perform as protagonists is not a valid argument - at least in my book.
Seen it. Once, then they learned.
Short story, the group charged into melee, crashing headlong into an orc multi-tribal horde.
The rest of the party went through a lot of hurt, while trying to get their comrades back to safety, harassed by lowly troops and slowed by the occasional elite enemy (orc warchiefs, ogres, an handful of giants), and ran for their lives as soon as possible.
Back at their base camp, they also suffered the indignity of an army officer berating them for risking their lives of most capable warriors and spellcasters just for a few dozen orcs.
tl;dr: split the party. Wreck their strategy.
1. Yup. Tabletop RPGs, boardgames, wargames (even that old grognard stuff with hex maps and card counters!!), videogames (mostly puzzle/platforms, RPGs and FPS).
2. Not needed.
3. Not needed. We agreed very early in our relationship that each one had his/her own hobbies and need for space/personal time. Gamers do understand.
4. At my FLGS, while buying the Tome of Horrors. Ah!
5. She pushes me further, with something along the line of "Oohh, shiny...get it!". Can be hard on the wallet.
6. No spawn.

I do have a tablet, with a couple of CAD apps, which I do use to make annotations, corrections and updates "on the field" (naval engineering).
Do I appreciate the sheer usefulness of the whole thing? Sure I do.
Do I like the CAD interface (precision, usability, responsiveness, etc.)? Nope.
Do I think the two things should look the same on the two very different environments (desktop with keyboard and mouse vs tablet with touchscreen)? Nope, again.
Is the tablet apt to be used for prolonged typing (as in writing lines of code, or just detailed reports), or digital drawing with layers, filters, effects, and a hundred other professional kinds of work? Nope, for the third time.
An handheld, portable device such as a touchscreen tablet is really usful for minor corrections, small and absolutely not complex updates, or even generic sketching a layout of a new work. But it's close to useless for detailed, in depth or long term working (don't get me started on batteries duration).
A single, unified user interface is ANTTDNW (another nice trick that does not work), at least with the current technology.
As far as user interfaces are involved, unifying the desktop and mobile environment is simply stupid. I'm not using my CAD the same way I'm fiddling with my tablet, get over it once and for all.
And this is true for a hundred other professional softwares.

Sorry but my brain kinda crashed into a brick wall and refused to read further after this.
You dig a 10 ft. deep (about 3 metres) trench every time you camp around a defensive area. Every time. 10 ft. deep.
Even with a gross approximation, how long is this trench? Do you accomplish this herculean feat alone? Do you have some kind of magic assistance in doing this?
Yet another vote for Call of Cthulhu - the d100 version.
More recent systems, The One Ring (set 5 years after the Battle of Five Armies) which deals a lot with travelling and social interactions with the people of the Middle Earth; and A song of Ice and Fire RPG, which has a robust social interaction system and an equally developed domain management part.
Warhammer Fantasy Roleplay 3rd Ed. (with the Lure of Power supplement) can be easily used for a political/social campaign in which physical combat is the least frequent option.
Also, Thousand Suns is a good sci-fi game that has combat not in the forefront, and I seem to recall that Rogue Trader features an interesting commercial focus, with a great concept of managing your own space vessel and its crew.
A lot of Cortex based games, like Leverage, also do not have combat as the main element of the game.

Declining Labour Use in Agriculture : A Case of Rice Cultivation in Andhra Pradesh
AbstractThe present paper examines the changing nature of labour use in rice cultivation in Andhra Pradesh. The study observed that there is a fast decline in labour use in respect of rice cultivation in Andhra Pradesh. All three forms of labour (family, casual and attached) have followed the same trend. But the share of casual labour in the total labour used in rice cultivation is increasing with a corresponding decline in the share of family labour. By gender, although both male and female labour use in rice cultivation has been declining, it is faster for female labour. Also, a noticeable decline in the share of harvesting and threshing/winnowing which are increasingly mechanized, in total labour used per hectare of rice cultivation. Between wage rate and labour inputs, it is observed that there are relatively higher female labour inputs per hectare in areas (Zones) where male wages are lower and vice versa.

In the Disney film Frozen, Elsa brings the lovable sNowman, Olaf, to life with her magical powers. Now girls can also bring him to "life" with this delightful sNowman figure. Just like in the movie, Olaf falls apart with a head that pops off, and he also has removable arms. Re-arrange his parts however you want to build your own sNowman. To add to the storytelling fun, Olaf changes his facial expressions with just a press of a button.

Disaster! could be the home for King Kong 360

From Jaiden Cohen on February 10, 2014 at 5:55 AMI made a discussion about this a while ago with some details. Go and check it out.
From Robert Niles on February 10, 2014 at 12:43 PMDo we really want another movie-studio-themed attraction, or do visitors prefer more immersive experience in complete environments? In other words, would you rather visit a recreation of the Harry Potter film set, or a recreation of Hogsmeade?
I'd love to see Universal create a Kong attraction within the context of visiting Skull Island. Or to see Kong running loose in New York again. But the Earthquake/Disaster model for a studio attraction is a tired, played-out concept at this point. Maybe there's a way to reinvigorate it, but simply making the theme King Kong alone doesn't do that... for me, at least.
From Daniel Etcheberry on February 10, 2014 at 4:26 PMThe pre-show could be a walk-through the jungle of Skull Island. And then you ride the train with the same footage of USH's King Kong 360. It's better than Disaster, and you can't do much in that small space anyways.
From Robert Niles on February 10, 2014 at 5:02 PMI'd love to see Kong return to USF, but if Universal's going to do this, I'd rather see the whole San Francisco land transform to Skull Island. Don't shove Skull Island into a room on the San Francisco waterfront.
From Daniel Etcheberry on February 10, 2014 at 5:41 PMI agree Robert. They would have to change that area into Skull Island. Otherwise, it wouldn't fit with San Francisco.
From Jaiden Cohen on March 8, 2014 at 7:00 AMBased on Robert's new blog that went up recently, its going on the Triceratops Encounter Site.
From Rob Pastor on March 8, 2014 at 3:54 PMRobert corrected his first posting. It will probably be next to the retention pond behind the River Adventure falls & the restaurant. That area is more than twice the size of the Trike area.
From Manny Rodriguez on March 12, 2014 at 4:32 PMIMO skull island would fit well in The Jurassic park area At IOA

There are only two places this chandelier can possible be hung: in the garage or in the recreation room above a pool table. But it says macho all over it. For sure the bottles need to have a certain character, but no sissy bottles please.
