Even a slacker can be debt-free. Here's how.
Tank Burt is no stranger to the intimacy of the unsaid. As a director she's been honing her craft with shorts like Skateboard, Skateboard, a coming-of-age story told virtually without dialogue, and now she's made her feature debut as an actress.
I need to know that you are not merely worried about this most tragic of worst case scenarios befalling my son; I need to know that you are out there changing the ethos that puts it in place. That you see this as something that unites us as mothers, friends and human beings.
The central tenet of reproductive justice is that every woman has the right to have children, not have children, and to parent the children we have in safe and healthy environments.
No one who cares about the death of Michael Brown, or the scourge of police brutality, can ever choose not to vote, again. Period. Not only did people die so that you could vote, people die because you do not vote.
For decades, American civil rights advocates have connected the dots between the domestic fight for civil rights and the international struggle for human rights.
I am still trying to deconstruct why the Ferguson community's outpouring of grief, loss and anger was met with such an impersonal, aggressive and unrelenting show of militarized police use of force uncharacteristic of peacetime policing.
Rather than spending dollars on drones and other questionable, expensive military equipment, it is time that local law enforcement officials shift those resources toward training on how to more effectively engage their local communities, especially young people of color.
In the past, if you needed a loan for your car, home improvements or to consolidate your credit cards, you would need to get dressed up and head down to the bank to beg for money. The Internet has made things a little easier.
There needs to be an organized national movement that proposes and lobbies for policy changes in law enforcements that need it and then in the state legislatures, Governor's Mansions, and Congress. Let the deaths of Martin, Garner, Bell, Grant, and countless others not be in vain.
The U.S. criminal justice system is built on the premise that one size does not fit when meting out justice. An individualized sentencing practice is key to a fair and just sentence.
A possible interpretation of the theme song and the show being is that you have to be grateful for the good times (the positives) in order to see your way through the remaining challenges.
For all those who loved "Big Mike," and all the other unnamed youth who have died to "justifiable" or "legal interventions" by law officers and know that Ferguson deserves change: be inspired -- register and vote for justice and for the fulfilled promise of peace.
I am praying today, with my hands raised high, for a nation in which black boys are not feared, a nation in which they also need not fear for their safety.
In addition to concerns in Ferguson about lost learning time educators have a more urgent worry: making sure students who typically rely on school meals don't go hungry.
Ferguson was not just an event in which police overreacted to heated demonstrations; it's a symptom of a generalized hatred of democracy in this country -- the hatred of the truly bold idea that politics should be the work of everyday people and that power should not be concentrated in the hands of a few.
I created these political cartoons to express my feelings about the current situation in Ferguson, MO. I am a native of St. Louis, by way of East St. Louis, Illinois, a community that mirrors Ferguson in it's racial and socio-economic climate.

The Role of the IMF in Well-Performing Low-Income Countries
AbstractThe IMF began to play a prominent role in low-income countries in the late 1970s and 1980s when many countries faced overvalued exchange rates, growing budget deficits, high inflation, and low reserves. But times have changed, and many low-income countries no longer face these problems and do not need classic IMF programs. This paper explores options for the role of the IMF in well-performing low-income countries that no longer require IMF financing. It argues that in these countries the IMF should use more non-funded programs, and it should play a much less dominant role in overall conditionality. These countries should be able to focus more on achieving high-priority development goals that are outside the expertise of the IMF, such as in health, water, education, private sector development, and agriculture. While playing a less prominent role, the Fund should continue to be engaged in helping countries to maintain an appropriate macroeconomic framework. For some countries, a non-funded program like the new Policy Support Instrument (PSI) would be appropriate, while others could shift further to a program of surveillance and monitoring. In well-performing countries the Fund should provide public ratings on macroeconomic policy, ideally fully incorporated into the World Bank's CPIA rating system.

Why More and More Renters Are Renewing Their Leases
Are you a renter who has lived in apartment buildings for some time now? If so, you are not alone. Many people love apartment life, and they see themselves renting for some time to come as well. Actually many renters prefer it, and don't want to live any other way. And this trend has been developing over the years.
There are a variety of reasons why individuals prefer to live in apartment homes rather than buy. With the recent recession, and the onslaught of foreclosures that followed, who really wants to take on a mortgage and assume debt? Wouldn't it just be easier to rent and not have to worry about maintenance and such?
For some, it is much easier and creates much less anxiety to simply rent a place. Read on to see what factors are contributing to this perpetual renting lifestyle.
a substantial down-payment may be…
Usually when your purchase a home, there is some sort of down payment that is needed. And many lenders require that a larger down-payment be used, than in the recent years in the past. 20% is a common number that is used, but in many cases homeowners can actually put down less. For many renters, putting down a large sum of money is out of the question, or they simply cannot come up with the funds.
the job market…
While the job market has rebounded in many cities across the country, many people are still feeling the pinch. In fact, although many jobs have been created, they may not be the high paying jobs that were lost in the Great Recession. So with less money coming in, the affordability of homes are just not there right now. And many individuals who are employed currently, are very open to the idea of moving elsewhere to acquire higher paying jobs.
If you have dabbled in the newspapers over the last few years, you probably have seen certain headlines regarding foreclosures. A foreclosure can certainly stain a credit profile and create many other financial barriers. And if you have experienced a foreclosure recently, it may take years to be able to acquire a new home under realistic conditions. Renting may just be easier and less risky for many.

Why you might want to renew your apartment lease.
interest rates have…
Although interest rates have remained low, and have been at their lowest for some time, they have recently begun to creep up. Many renters took advantage of these low rates, but many also did not. So there might be hesitation among many to see if they come back down again.
In fact new apartment housing rivals custom homes in every sense of the word. Complete with state of the art fitness gyms, game rooms complete with high speed Internet, and complimentary coffee bars, there are a multitude of reasons to rent. In fact renting might actually be preferred. rather than settled for.
Many apartment developers have also witnessed an increase in rental rates that have spurred new construction in many cities. With new features and amenities, it actually is more fun to live in apartment homes.

Should I Rent A Furnished Apartment Home
Many renters who are signing their lease for their next apartment, sometimes have a common question. Should i rent a furnished place, or should I bring my own furniture with me. Usually furnished apartment homes only make up a small percentage of the overall units in a community. But it just might be the case that that's what you need. Maybe you're only going to be renting the apartment for a few months, or you do a lot of traveling and won't be spending much time in your place.
So what exactly does "furnished" mean? Usually they come complete with everything you need to live. This means they will include furniture in all of the rooms, and all the normal appliances you would expect to find in the kitchen. Other items like a washer/dryer will be present in many of them. And of course your linens and a shower curtain. It really will depend upon the community in which you intend to rent.
But read on so you can decide which one best meets your needs.
you will spend more…
You will spend more money in the long run in a furnished community. How much more? Usually it is a significant amount. When you get the rental rate per month, you will have to figure out if it makes sense for you. Sometimes its better if you even rent on your own, or just bite the bullet and buy the things you need. But owning furniture means that you will have to do something with it when you move out. You may elect to not have to deal with this when you decide to move out.
it sure is easy to move…
Moving in and out couldn't be any easier. If you are the type of person that is always signing short term leases, then this option is for you. All you have to do is pack up your suitcase and leave. Its as simple as that. Moving furniture is for the other guy.
If you don't have much time to find your next place then this is the option for you. Maybe you're coming from a city far away, or you only have a few days to make a decision. If the place you're looking into already has everything you will need when you move in, then all you really need to do is sign the lease and you're ready to go.
Here are the downsides of renting a furnished apartment home.

you will pay much much…
1) Your going to pay more. Many renters are shocked at what the price difference is. In some cases it can be quite a bit more. If you're familiar with the term "sticker shock", then this may apply here. Keep in mind that many people end up just paying the increase because it fits their plan. Remember that the place will have everything you need to live. And cable, telephone, and Internet are also included. Not only will this cost be passed onto you, but there will also be an additional fee for this as well.
Remember that renting a furnished place is not for everyone. It really will depend on your situation, and the time frame you have. But by sitting down and crunching numbers, you will be able to decide what situation fits your needs.

Moving across the country and don't know what exactly you should do with your pet? In case you didn't know, its very possible to ship your pet. Although you may be skeptical at first, many pet owners realize that it might be easier for their pets, than driving them long distances. Just as you probably don't see a drive across the country as convenient, think how your pet may feel.
Read on for some pet shipping options you can use today.
its this easy…
It's as easy as checking for "pet shipping services" on the Internet. You will see many companies that offer services. There are many regulations and rules that must be followed. These companies will be able to answer the majority of your questions. If you still have doubts about which company to use, ask your veterinarian. They probably have extensive experience, and will gladly point you in the right direction.
Before you begin the process, you will need to make sure that all of your pets vaccinations are up to date. You will be required to have the appropriate pet papers with you. This "certificate" is proof that your pet is healthy enough to travel. Again, your veterinarian should be aware of the current rules about shipping pets across state lines.
You will need the an appropriate kennel that fits the specific guidelines for travel. Here are some common characteristics you will come across.
*The kennel must not be collapsable
*There must be holes in the kennel
*Your pet must be able to stand up and turn around
Be sure to ask what other rules will apply.

restrictions regarding…
There will also be restrictions regarding food, water, and toys. In some cases, the food can be attached in a baggie to the side of the kennel. And you can bring a bowl with you. Many companies recommend you freeze water in a bowl, in your icebox, so that it has time to melt into water for the flight. Someone will feed your pet, so you don't have to worry about taking the food out of the bag yourself.
Don't give your dog any medications to help your pet sleep on the flight. Although you may enjoy something to help you sleep during the flight, there may be a risk doing this. Of course these questions can be answered by the company you choose.
other rules…
You should know that there are other rules regarding shipping petse on airlines. They won't allow your pet to fly if it's either too hot or too cold. This is in the best interests of your pet. So be sure to call the airline ahead of time, to confirm the conditions are optimal.
You may have not even realized that shipping a pet on an airline is possible. You might be skeptical at first, but you should know that its something that many pet owners take advantage of. It might even be the perfect situation you have been looking for. If you have any reservations be sure and ask your vet. .

Know These Facts Before You Bring A New Pet Home In Your Apartment
Living with a pet sure has its list of advantages. But if you plan on bringing one home to live with you in your apartment community, there are a few items that you should be aware of. And if you currently don't have a pet, but plan on getting one soon, you want to make sure you're on the same page with your landlord.

Don't Move Out of Your Apartment Without Reading This
Moving out of your apartment soon? There are a plethora of reasons why you need to give notice sooner rather than later,and in many instances we need to move out right in the middle of our lease. And for many of us, we feel guilty that we are leaving. But this is just the normal routine in life. Don't feel bad, you can't stay forever. Here are some steps you can follow that will get you started in the right direction.
the lease provides…
Your lease will provide you with all the information you will need. It is your map and should indicate how much notice you will need to give your landlord. It's also a great tool to refer to when you have additional questions. Take some extra time to become familiar with what this document is and what it states.
For example, this lease will list how long your lease term is, and how many days of notice you must provide in advance. Most properties require a 30 to 60 day notice. If you don't give adequate notice, there may be additional fees involved for your to leave on good terms. It's always a good idea to give notice well in advance. That way there will be limited confusion.
Rental cycles can sometimes confuse renters. If your community requires that you give a 30 day notice and your in the middle of the month, the notice won't officially begin until the first of the month.
always give notice….
Now you should always give notice in writing. You can always give oral notice, but what if the leasing agent or landlord forgets? Or what if they get sick? Writing a letter, or sending an email is the best option. Be sure to include your address and name, and your intentions of moving out. Now is also a good time to ask your landlord about the security deposit. If you want to get the entire amount back, be sure to bring this up in your conversation.
Also be sure to leave your forwarding address. That way they know where to send your security deposit. You should send the letter certified, so you have proof that they did receive it.

Now there shouldn't be anything left to complete. But that doesn't mean that everything will go smoothly. Although leaving on good terms is the ideal situation, sometimes tenants are surprised to find out that not only did the landlord keep the entire deposit, their credit report was also negatively impacted.
Rules regarding tenant landlord law will differ depending on the city and state in which you reside. Sometimes you will have to get an attorney involved in your situation. Other times you can work it out on your own.
Remember that your lease document is your map to all the rules regarding your lease. Become familiar with the terms. That way, you won't ever have to worry about what might occur when you finally do leave.

Reasons Why You Might Not Want To Date the Person Your Living With
It seems so simple. Why not move in with someone your dating? There are many reasons that you might think are beneficial for both of you.
For example, think about all the savings each of you will be able to enjoy. No longer will both of you have to pay rent. In fact if you live in the same one bedroom, you can cut your rental cost in half. Also think about all your utility bills that you currently pay. From cable television, to the lights, you will be able to split these too.
It sounds like a no brainer right?
But sometimes things change when you are around that person all the time. What started out with good intention, seems to have started to decline.
Someone isn't doing the dishes, or they are creating a mess. And probably one of the worst items that can cause the most strain are money problems. If someone can't or won't come up with their fair share of the bills, then things can escalate.
And if you guys decide to part ways, can both of you decide who will move out and are both of you ok living with each other while one of you is looking for their next apartment home?
But if both of you insist on living together, here are some tips that each of you might want to consider.
have an exit plan…
1) Before things get ugly, have an exit plan. Both of you should sit down while your both on good terms, and put something down in writing just in case. This will be much easier than deciding what to do after the fact.
be sure to plan some time away from …
2) Both of you don't need to plan some activities that you will do on your own or with someone else. Everyone needs some alone time even though you may not think you need it now
put together…
3) Put together a list of chores. Who will perform the chores and on what day. Another great idea is a roommate agreement.

Remember that although you may think living with the person your dating is a great idea. you might want to give that a second thought. What seems so great in the beginning might not be worth it in the end.

How Much Does It Really Cost To Hire a Moving Company
What is the true cost of hiring movers to move your stuff from point "A" to point "B". This is a very common question among renters who have just rented a new apartment home. There is not doubt that if you perform a self-service move, chances are it will cost less money straight out of your pockets.

From packing boxes, moving them up and down a flight of stairs, loading, them in the moving truck, and then driving it to your new location, it sure will take a lot of time out of your day. And it may take more than one.
If you choose to to splurge and hire mover than can preform a variety of tasks. The more tasks the more it will cost, but also it means the less work you will have to do as well. Some even provide packing services. That means you really won't have to do anything.
But its almost impossible for anyone to tell you what a move will cost without getting an estimate from a moving company. There are a variety of factors that will come into play.

Here are some tips that most renters can use in their apartment community.
be sure to eat…
A) Why waste your time exercising when your not going to eat a clean and balanced diet? It really comes down to purchasing foods that are conducive to your new lifestyle. If your not sure what healthy foods are then you might want to ask friends and family for some advice. Remember that if you have only healthy foods at home, you won't be able to eat items that will lead to weight gain.

check out the fitness center
C) Before you rent your next place, be sure and scope out the fitness center. Most leasing agents will show you this feature on the tour. Remember that this doesn't cost you extra. Its already part of your rent payment. Some of these fitness centers already have the latest equipment that you might already be using. So before you say that the facility doesn't have the equipment you need, be sure to do some investigation on your own.
Besides taking advantage of some of these options above, many apartment communities are large. Taking long walks around the complex is a sure way to get some healthy exercise and stay in shape.

Get Your Apartment Back: How To Clean More Effectively
Nobody likes to clean their apartment home. But it's something that you will have to do. Your apartment isn't going to clean itself. So you can either take it upon yourself to do the honors, or you can hire a housekeeper or cleaning service to do it for you.
But there are a few tactics you can use so it doesn't get too out of control. For example, don't wait until it becomes so unbearable. This probably means that your entire place is out of control. Try and do a little cleaning when necessary.
Here are some other strategies you can employ today.
make a list
Not many renters know where to start when it comes to cleaning their home. So a good place to start is to set down and make a list of what needs to be done. So a good tactic to use is simply to start with the "kitchen". This is a place in your apartment home that probably needs a good cleaning. So what needs to be cleaned in the kitchen?
*Wash dishes and place them in the dishwasher
*Wipe down counters using a cleaner when necessary
*Sweep floor
*If the trash if full, take it outside of your apartment home to the nearest trash bin.
You should have a list like this for each room in your place. Of course you can add and edit certain chores on your list when necessary. Keep this checklist in a safe place. After enough time, you will remember each part by heart.
Read more about cleaning:

How to clean up after the holidays.
be sure to start in the right ….
Many renters will start cleaning the wrong rooms first. There should be a certain set of priorities to get the job done. Trying to do to much at once will leave you frustrated.
So have you thought about what's the most important cleaning chore to start first? Thats really up to you. There is mopping, sweeping, vacuuming, washing clothes, taking out the trash, and much more.
It won't be hard to determine what you should do first. If you have dishes that are stacked in your sink and empty pizza boxes lying around, this obviously would be a priority over dusting the fan.
if you have roommates…
If you have roommates then all of you should sit down and make a plan. Certain chores should be assigned weekly. You might even want to make a chart and attach it to the refrigerator. That way all the roommates know where their responsibilities lie for the week.
Remember that cleaning your apartment home is part of living and renting. So be sure to prioritize and clean in the most efficient manner you can.

Don't Forget About These Important Items During Your Apartment Search
Searching for an apartment ecompasses many factors. The majority of renters are usually only concerned with a few factors. These usually include price and location. Everything else is just left to chance.
And many times renters get so consumed by all the fine details that it creates havoc upon their search. At the end of the day its sometimes hard to remember what the apartment homes looked like, what amenities were included, and the exact location of each. This will slow your apartment search and create unneeded stress. Its best to avoid too many of the details as it might not matter to you.
However, there are some items that you should focus on that many renters don't remember. Read on for these details that will make your stay at the community more enjoyable.
where are you washing…
Will you be able to wash and dry your clothes inside your apartment home. Having access to your own washer/dryer is sometimes forgotten. If not, where is the laundry room located? Will you have to travel up and down stairs to get there? If there are connections in the apartment home, then your set.
In many cases there you won't have access to a laundry room in the community, so ask your leasing agent where you can go to launder your clothes.
where is the property located…
If your apartment home has every amenity and convenience that you can think of, but you have to go out of your way to get there, it might not be as great as it could be. Long commutes will wear you down over time. So be sure you map out how far the apartment community is from the locations that you will frequent the most.

avoid focusing on….
Don't be fooled by the amenities and features that the apartments try to show you during your tours. The size of the unit, where it is located in the community, and the floor-plan should determine if you will live there.
Make sure your comfortable, and don't be afraid to bring a measuring tape with you to determine if your furniture can fit well.
Remember that by focusing on the important items in your search, you will make the best leasing decision for yourself. Don't get too worked up about the small stuff.

He's still absorbing that when his cell phone rings. "Yeah, Larry?" he answers. Larry cackles into Michael's earpiece, "Not bad for an old man, eh? Two Andersons, one day." Larry's zombie grin is back in place, and even more frightening in extreme close-up. After a quiet pause, Larry asks Michael, "Or was it just one?" Still peering through the scope at nothing, Michael snaps, "You got what you wanted. Leave it alone." Again, not sure why Drew had to produce the actual money when neither of them expected Larry to walk away. Shutting down his scope, Michael tells Larry to shuffle off to Buffalo. Larry thinks that's a good idea, but wants to ask Michael something first: "You knew that kid was dead anyway. Why didn't you take the shot?" Michael says he didn't have one, but Larry thinks that Michael just couldn't bring himself to shoot his friend. "Some people live, some people die," he says as an epigram, before grabbing the duffel and walking off to await his next appearance as a recurring villain. To be honest, I'm kind of looking forward to that as well.
And after that, Michael has to go back to Madeline's house to meet with her and her therapist, and turn in his lifework assignment. He's on the last item of his list, which is that he's grateful to Madeline for giving him her fantastic...eyesight. Madeline is, to say the least, not impressed. "You couldn't come up with five real things?" Turning to the flummoxed counselor, she bitches, "He doesn't even think I ever did five things for him. In his life! I was a terrible mother. No wonder you ran away." This is news to the counselor, but Michael explains that he joined the military at age 17. "My dad signed a form. Couldn't wait to get me out of the house." Madeline says that in fact she forged his dad's name on the form. "I didn't want to take away the one thing you were grateful to your father for," she says. "I would have, if I'd known my own list was so short." Michael asks why she did it. She says she knew that if he didn't leave, he might have ended up in jail or worse. "You could have turned out different," she says grimly. "I let you go because you needed to focus on something good." Into this moment, the therapist congratulates them on crossing the bridge, and they both snap at him to get out. Michael thanks his mom before she ducks into a bedroom. So that just leaves three more things for Michael to come up with.
Michael and Sam are in the Charger, tailing the aforementioned Bill Johnson to a large office building with a 1500 address. They pull into a questionable parking spot and watch through the opera glasses as Bill Johnson gets out of the car he left in an even more questionable parking spot. He's got a very sour expression on his face and a backpack over one shoulder. "He looks grumpier than you do when you're going to meet Carla," Sam cracks. Michael points out that she hasn't had him kill anyone yet. As they watch Bill Johnson walk toward the entrance, Michael goes into one last VO: "Black bag missions are often broken into separate parts. Operatives are given discrete tasks to ensure secrecy." And suddenly the opera glasses zoom waaay in on the item "Bill Johnson" is using to gain access to the building: it's that security badge that Michael got from Nefzi in the second episode of the season. "They're like jigsaw pieces," the VO continues as the screen above the card reader flashes, "ACCESS GRANTED 4TH FLOOR" and Bill Johnson walks inside. "And you never know if any of the ones you're given are from the same puzzle. But if you can get your hands on a corner piece, the part where the puzzle starts to take shape, sometimes you realizes all your pieces fit together." Especially if there are only two pieces. Let's count them together. First, There's a quick flashback to Michael in Nefzi's shop with the original and the fake security badge, and then Michael shows Sam the prototype he nicked for himself as he says that Bill Johnson's got the other copy. Second, there's a flashback to the sniper rifle heist, and Michael throwing the x-ray film of the gun up on his window. And that's all the pieces. "Carla's turned you into the sniper's personal shopper," Sam realizes. As Michael starts the car and drives off, he tells Sam. "I think I know how to find out what she's planning." You suppose it has anything to do with all the data that Michael helped Jimmy steal way back in the season premiere? I'd like to think so, but that would have to mean this jigsaw puzzle has a third piece.

2014 NFL Playoffs: Power Ranking Conference Championship Teams
2014 NFL Playoffs: Power Ranking the Conference Championship Teams
Thus far, the NFL playoffs have brought us an incredibly exciting Wild Card round which was followed by a pretty underwhelming divisional round of as far as entertainment value goes. The AFC and NFC Championship Games should put us back on track for exciting football with what should be two very competitive games.
The last time the San Francisco 49ers and Seattle Seahawks met, the 49ers came away with a 19-17 victory on a field goal with 26 seconds left in the game. They'll be in Seattle this time around, which is one of the toughest places to win. However, despite the Beast Quakes, the 12th man does not make the Seahawks invincible.
In the Denver Broncos and New England Patriots' last meeting, we saw one of the most memorable games of the year as the Patriots erased a 24-0 deficit to win in overtime by a score of 34-31. The Pats won't have the Foxboro crowd on their side this time, but they do have a quarterback who is much more reliable in big games.
Power ranking these four teams is going to be tough to do as the lowest-ranked team is not that far behind the top-ranked team. If anyone disagrees with this list, I won't disagree with you because all of the teams have a legitimate case to be at the top. All of them are well deserving of their spots in the conference championship games. Let's start from bottom to top, and cap it off with predictions for each contest.
4. Denver Broncos
Denver has one of the best offenses of all time and their special teams crew is also great, but a suspect defense that is now without Von Miller is a major concern.
3. Seattle Seahawks
The Seahawks are a great team with a decent argument as the best of these four teams, but these are power rankings which have a "what have you done for me lately?" aspect to them. The Seahawks lost two of their last four regular season games, including a loss at home to the Arizona Cardinals.
2. New England Patriots
The Patriots are the only team that really put a beating on their playoff opponent with a 43-22 victory over the Indianapolis Colts. They look ready for a good shootout with Peyton Manning and the Broncos.
1. San Francisco 49ers
The 49ers are the hottest team left with eight straight victories, including two playoff wins on the road. With Michael Crabtree and Aldon Smith back in the lineup, this team has been firing on all cylinders.
NFC Championship Game Prediction
The last time these teams met in Seattle, the Seahawks won in a blowout, but that was back in Week 2. The 49ers are not the same team they were early in the season. They are playing with all the confidence in the world and with all of their key players in the lineup. This is going to be a great game between two very well-rounded teams, but somebody from the Wild Card round has to make the Super Bowl, right?
Prediction: 49ers 20 -- Seahawks 13
AFC Championship Game Prediction
Bill Belichick is one of the best at slowing down Manning with a record of 11-6 against him as the head coach of the Patriots. The other factor that I believe gives New England the edge can be illustrated with a question. Who would you rather have in a huge game, Tom Brady or Manning?
Prediction: Patriots 38 -- Broncos 30

Laggards typically tend to be focused on "traditions", have lowest social status, lowest financial fluidity, oldest of all other adopters, in contact with only family and close friends, very little to no opinion leadership.I have not seen this issue of TIME, but I am so certain of exactly the kinds of stories I will find in it, as well as the products advertised.
As lawmakers and citizens begin to sort through the information about the war and make up their minds, our job is to provide context and perspective on one of the most difficult foreign policy issues of our time. What you see in these pictures and our story is something that you cannot find in those 91,000 documents: a combination of emotional truth and insight into the way life is lived in that difficult land and the consequences of the important decisions that lie ahead.She is no more a part of this war's context than the hundreds of thousands of women raped and mutilated in the Congo.
What I want to ask is, if we gave the Taliban 40,000,000 in May of 2001, how did they become immoral tyrants merely five months later?
To be fair, I wasn't around to read newspapers back during Vietnam or WWII so perhaps I suffer from sampling bias. Putting a woman who has had her nose cut off on the cover of a major national magazine (whether it otherwise sucks or not) is novel I think.
It is deeply problematic to construct the Afghan woman as someone in need of saving, When you save someone, you imply that you are saving her from something, You are also saving her to something, What violences are entailed in this transformation, and what presumptions are being made about the superiority of that to which you are saving her? Projects of saving other women depend on and reinforce a sense of superiority by Westerners, a form of arrogance that deserves to be challenged.Abu-Lughod's argument that the veil means different things to different people is engaging, but doesn't really touch on the other practices that Westerners find disturbing. The rhetoric and practice of 'saving' women may be misguided, even (horrors!) racist, but it's not obviously worse than outrages like the punitive mutilation of women by their families. By using the veil to stand for all that the West doesn't get about Afghanistan, Abu-Lughod strawmans the neo-liberal argument for forceful intervention in other cultures.

You're leaving Wedding Paper Divas to see the Deal of the Day at our parent site, Tiny Prints.
You won't be able to dismiss this by usual means (escape or click button), but you can close it programatically based on user choices or actions.
"We really liked the design on this card, but the colors in our picture were making it difficult for the words to show up well. Customer service was very quick (sometimes within a couple hours) to make the changes we requested and the card looked great. I was nervous about the paper quality, but they were very sturdy and durable. And the picture came out very clear. I would definitely recommend using this product. I am 100% satisfied with my whole experience and end product."
"I was very happy with the final product from this Save the Date. It was simple to submit and a great price. Came packaged very nicely. Only complaint is that the print from the post card came off on each post card on top of it. Truly, it doesn't matter since the post cards were then mailed through the postal service and probably put through the ringer."
"My fiance and I ordered these Save the Dates for our October wedding and were both very pleased with the quality of the card stock as well as the clarity of the picture we chose. The font on the back was printed clearly as well. We loved them!"
"Wedding Paper Divas blew my mind with my postcard save the dates. I was so pleased at the quality and price. I have just recently ordered my invites, thank you cards, and RSVP cards because I am so pleased with how everything was handled. My requests were handled quickly and the proofs were updated for my review. I must say the handwritten card from Lindsay, our editor, was the best part of all. Thank you for all you do!"
"We just received our save the date cards and love them! The picture quality is great and everything turned out perfect. We requested different fonts/sizes to be used on the back, and the designer customized it beautifully! My fiance's only issue was the "chalk" look of the front, the black background has some white areas to give a chalk look and he did not realize when we ordered it would look like that (he must not have looked close enough!). I love it though :)"

Premier Inn Sittingbourne KentBy the A2, on the edge of Sittingbourne, this Premier Inn is near the M2 motorway and a short trip from Newington and Sittingbourne train stations.
Score from 109 reviews Very good
Very clean place, best for people with car, but good communications to London by train, too. Quiet road to sleep well.
The steeple stairs have already been mentioned, but that's all.
Spacey place for 5 adults. Easy access to M-roads via Maistone. Excellent TV set and WIFI Shop open 6 am - 11 pm with plenty of choice and good price withing 3 minutes of walking.
Sittingbourne itself is not a very interesting place. Curtains are too thin and let all light inside the rooms in the morning.
There was a brand new trampoline in the backyard, which was a lovely surprise for the kids. The house is generously sized compared to most UK duplexes, so it was nice to have the space for the family to spread out (greatly appreciated after sharing small hotel rooms elsewhere during our holiday). The house is on a quiet street and only a 5 minute walk to a small supermarket (Tescos) and less than a 10 minute walk to the Sittingbourne train station. In addition to cooking utensils the kitchen had several condiments (salt, sugar etc) in the cupboards already. WiFi instructions were clear and the signal was strong throughout the house. The owner was easy to contact and very helpful when we had to telephone him about a minor issue.
The stairs to the top floor are very steep and would be challenging for someone with a bad knee or hip. It would be useful to have basic instructions for the house heating, oven and washing machine - as we are not from the UK and it took us a while to work these out (although the owner was easy to reach by phone and happy to help).
Comfort, facilities and practicality. Close to shop and PUB/restaurant. Quiet.
The size of the property and the equipment and whitegoods available to use
Clean and good value.
steep stairs
The total stay was fantastic and offered everything we needed. It was very clean and had ample room for 2 adults and 4 young children. The landlord was also extremely helpful. I would definelty recommend this place to others and hope to use it again on the near future.
Great value for money. Easy to go to London by train. No problem for parking the car in the street.
House was clean and well maintained. Owner was very friendly.
Not a good area. My daughter and I were stalked walking in the downtown area.
The house was on a quiet road, but within walking distance from the centre of Sittingbourne, there was also plenty of parking spaces outside the property. It was spacious, exceptionally clean and was extremely well equipped. It was perfect for us and much better than staying in a hotel. A perfect base to explore Kent.

Mk3 Mondeo Idle Madness!
Posted 11 May 2013 - 05:32 PM
My dad has a 2004 54 plate mondeo, mk3 I think, with the 1.8 duratec petrol.
It has developed a fault recently whereby when coasting along it idles at 1300 rpm, but when the car comes to a complete standstill the idle drops to normal,
My fiesta does a similar thing but it has always dobe this, while the mindeo hasn't,
Does anyone have any ideas as to what may be causing this?

Its probably just the ECU adjusting the revs (to get a smoother gearchange/ to prevent stalling etc)
Posted 12 May 2013 - 07:22 AM
Posted 12 May 2013 - 12:08 PM
That's what I have suspected all along, but dad insists that theres something amiss. He read somewhere that theres a pipe thats split going from the inlet manifold to somewhere oil related, possibly a breather pipe, which causes it, its apparently a common fault on duratec and zetec engines, so should probably check my fiesta too!
Yes, there is a pipe from the crankcase breather/ PCV (positive crankcase ventilation) valve to the air intake, if it splits it could cause the symptoms you are describing (because it may draw extra air)- so worth checking (especially if it did not do it before) - the ECU also adjusts the tickover too, especially during warm-up - Another thing worth checking is the idle control valve, which can stick
Posted 12 May 2013 - 04:21 PM
I no on my mondeo the eba vacuum pipe was the fault on mine
Posted 12 May 2013 - 06:49 PM
Posted 12 May 2013 - 07:16 PM
Sweet as, cheers! I'll see how the fiesta gets on, as far as I know its done it since ive had the car, it was 4 years old when I got it, and it doesn't idle any higher that it did then, while coasting or sat on the drive, I tend to use engine braking anyway as its meant to be more efficient than coasting!
Yes i saw that on top gear - if you "coast" in gear the ECU cuts the fuelling but if you "coast in neutral" it uses a little fuel to stop it stalling/ keep the engine running
Posted 12 May 2013 - 07:43 PM
Posted 13 May 2013 - 06:56 PM
engine braking's one o the worst things for your clutch though
Posted 15 May 2013 - 11:19 AM
agree with Angus, its not healthy. The servo should be alive for as long as the engine is ticking over though, just because it cuts the fuel to minimal being injected shouldn't stop the engine in essence running...
Posted 10 January 2014 - 11:12 PM
Modeo 1.8 lx petrol

text: 10 Sources For Wall Decals by POPSUGAR Home 4/27/10 0 Reactions 15 Shares Print 4 11 0 0 0 From underwear to Edward Cullen, you can find a wall decal of pretty much anything you want these days. If you're on the hunt for an inexpensive, nonpermanent way to spruce up your space, I've gathered up 10 of my favorite sources for finding this reusable wall art. I'm really loving Artstick's vinyl butterfly clock ($74) — I'm always a fan of the convergence of functionality and style. Blik What's Your Reaction? 0 0 0 0 0 0 One of the pioneers of the wall decal craze, Blik has quite a diverse collection, including the Olivia Headboard ($40), the perfect solution for a tiny bedroom (or someone indecisive). 1 / 10 The Wall Sticker Company What's Your Reaction? 0 0 0 0 0 0 This Australian company has an adorable selection of art for children's rooms, elegant room designs, wedding wording, and custom designs like these happy snaps (14 for $30), which turn your fave photos into faux Polaroids for your home or office wall. 2 / 10 Tasty Suite What's Your Reaction? 0 0 0 0 0 0 If you are looking to turn your walls wordy, you might like Tasty Suite's wide collection of phrases. I think this gray XOXO. ($21) is just adorable. 3 / 10 Ferm Living What's Your Reaction? 0 0 0 0 0 0 More than just a wallpaper retailer, Ferm Living has a quirky and cute collection of wall stickers, such as this tongue-in-cheek Sewing Kit Wall Sticker ($58). 4 / 10 High Style Wall Decals What's Your Reaction? 0 0 0 0 0 0 This company has an extensive and super customizable offering of wall decals. For the bold kitchen-dweller, slap on the Spoon, Fork, Knife design ($25). 6 / 10 WallCandy Arts What's Your Reaction? 0 0 0 0 0 0 I reviewed WallCandy's Rococo Chalkboard Decal ($36) last year, and I'm still smitten with the pretty design and practical uses. Also of note, the whiteboard and glow-in-the-dark decals — how fun is that? 6 / 10 Miraentuinterior What's Your Reaction? 0 0 0 0 0 0 This Mexican site's wall decals make quite a statement, with sweeping, artistic designs and fanciful shapes. I think this circular design ($65-$110) would look great in a sleek, modern home. 7 / 10 2Modern What's Your Reaction? 0 0 0 0 0 0 2Modern carries several brands of wall stickers, including a selection from Ferm Living and wall bands from Twenty2, which look like strips of wallpaper — but are a heck of a lot easier to take off! These Gala Wallbands come in 15-foot strips and can be cut to size. 8 / 10 Artstick What's Your Reaction? 0 0 0 0 0 0 Although Artstick carries the usual assortment of wall adornments, it's the vinyl clocks that grabbed my attention. The artful stickers aren't just for looks, they function as real clocks! This butterfly clock ($74) would be a beautiful way to dress up an empty wall, don't you think? 9 / 10 Etsy What's Your Reaction? 0 0 0 0 0 0 Perhaps the largest selection of wall decals can be found on Etsy. A couple of my picks from the crafty website would be Byrdiegraphics, whose pretty dotted flowers ($52) have a wallpaper-like look, and Elephannie, whose cute gnome and mushrooms decal ($14) won me over with its garden charm. 11 / 10 4 11 0 0 0 Read More Decorating ResourcesDecalWall ArtRoundupWall DecalsShopping Get a Personalized Living Newsletter!

Diana Johnson reselected to represent Hull North in 2015 general election
Hull North MP Diana Johnson has been reselected as the party's candidate for the 2015 general election. She was first elected for the seat in 2005 becoming the city's first female MP. She was education minister between 2009 and 10 and is currently the shadow home office minister.
"Since first being elected in 2005, Diana has worked hard for Hull North through some very challenging years for Labour and for Hull.
In the past year alone, Diana has spoken over 120 times in the House of Commons and has so far taken up the individual cases of 7,000 constituents since 2010.
We believe that Diana will help a Labour Government bring hope and fairness back to the people of Hull. Recovery will not be easy, but we have every confidence that Diana will play a leading role in helping to bring it about."
Chair of Hull North Labour Party Colin Livett

And from the moment he started boxing, Sims started winning.
He has a record of 188 wins and only 12 losses that compliment his 10 national titles very well. Add those to his Junior World Title and it stands to reason that this member of Team USA boxing is poised to become the light-heavyweight champion of the world.
With a professional contract now added to the lengthy list of accomplishments, it's guaranteed to bring more expectations, especially when one of the best promoters in the business is comparing Sims to Ali. But having never had an issue meeting expectations before, it may not be such a tall task.
Sims knows adversity and perseverance all too well and a life full of obstacles has only prepared him for boxing's biggest stage.
"The most pressure I've ever had on me was over these last five years," Sims Jr. said. "My mother and I would go to these tournaments in different states that would cost $2,000 a tournament and because it was an elimination tournament, if I lost the first one we have other hotels booked and we won't get our money back so I had no choice but to win."
When Sims Jr. isn't doing ballet or going for a run in his preferred cold, rainy, and muddy climate, he's relaxing. He listens to Explosions in the Sky, a calm, purely instrumental band, or watches one of his favorite romantic movies to remove himself as the violent aggressor and to re-group during much needed down time.
Outside the ropes and in between the hours upon hours of training and sparring, there's a man with a mission that is seldom seen among pro athletes.
To be 18 and have such a "big-picture" attitude toward life is truly a rarity these days among athletes and icons that are on their way to making a healthy sum of money.
