While the latest WGC Gold Demand Trends report notes a sharp fall compared with the exceptional levels of a year ago, it sees market consolidation and long term growth.
Recent relative gold and silver price stability now permits investors to choose companies which can build value and demonstrate cash flows at today's prices, says Chris Thompson.
Investors are all too familiar with the KABOOM in precious metals prices in the fall of 2011. Three years later Jeb Handwerger explains why it's important to position yourself for some fall fireworks again.
After years spent in the shadow of gold, miners are back in favor, driven by stronger earnings and cuts to mining costs.
Despite the current import duties on gold India remains a very significant player and any change in the import restrictions could have a stron effect on the metal price
In a recent CNBC interview, Dr Ron Paul said gold could go to infinity – this article examines why he might make such a prediction.
Geopolitical events, particularly in Ukraine, are overtaking us as rhetoric, and sanctions, escalate. Russia believes in gold and has been buying. Should we in the West be doing so too?
A very large gold sale on the futures markets knocked the gold price down sharply, could there be more to come?
Jeffrey Currie isn't backing down from his bearish call on gold; he's sticking with the view that it will be lower by the end of year.
A big rise in gold and silver shorts held by the big commercial banks not seen since the 2013 gold price smashdown, could suggest a repeat is in the offing.
After investors sent bullion tumbling in 2013 and kept dumping the metal earlier this year, demand is now up and prices are defying bearish forecasts.
Gold producers will return to net hedging for the first time since 2011 this year, say GFMS analysts.
While investors are shunning gold, they're buying ETPs backed by equities, shows data compiled by Bloomberg.
Traders and analysts surveyed by Bloomberg believe prices will average $1,250/oz next quarter, about 5% less than now.
Rather, Julian Phillips, argues that after a potential bear raid, gold could zoom up.
"We continue to believe that a number of the seniors and intermediates need to establish 2018 and beyond pipeline assets for growth and to replace existing production."
Gold has been falling despite positive fundamentals. This suggests that there could be a turnaround if sentiment starts moving in favour. Could this happen in the second half of the year?

Storage Challenged
The editor of a home-design magazine enlists the help of an expert to get her own home in order.

Before: Cramped Living Space
Meet Brice Gaillard, a home-design magazine editor who works out of her city apartment. Work space has taken over personal space in her small living room and kitchen, with magazines, books and paperwork piled everywhere. The biggest problem is lack of storage in either room. Boxes are stored underneath tables, and wing chairs sit in the kitchen because there is no room for them in the living room.
The living room, with its bare windows and piles of paperwork on every surface, is not the most welcoming space for relaxing and entertaining. The furniture arrangement does not make good use of what limited space there is.
The tiny kitchen, which is completely exposed to the living room, has only two cabinets, extremely limited counter space, and an uninspired wall color. The large black dresser stores CDs and office materials instead of kitchen items.
Professional organizer Maxwell Gillingham-Ryan is full of ideas for turning the cramped and cluttered space into a workable office that can disappear when it is time to entertain or relax.
His goal is to get the office completely out of the kitchen space and introduce new storage options. To cut down on the quantity of paper items to keep and store, he recommends keeping the following: special letters but not the envelopes; enclosed pictures but not the Christmas cards they came in; and only seven years of tax records. Other changes include painting the kitchen, moving around the existing furniture and bringing in new pieces.

The National Weather Service confirmed a tornado touched down in north Bourbon County Saturday.
The path of destruction ripped down trees and picked up one family's barn, scattering it across the yard.
"It came up our property line beside the driveway and came back this way and took the barn, it was in its path obviously, and then it went on around and then hit our neighbors tobacco barn and then shot down to the other neighbors tree line because she has several big trees down," said Andrea Terry, who lives at 201 Endicott Lane.
The tornado picked up their barn which was about 50 yards from their home. Fortunately, the home only lost about six feet worth of shingles on the roof.
"It was too close for comfort in my book," said Terry.
The National Weather Service said it was an EF 1 tornado with 90-95 mph winds.
The Terry's hid in the bathroom while the storm passed. They're lucky and thankful.
"I'm just lucky it was just an EF 1," said Terry. "It could have been a whole lot worse. I hate to see what something else would have done. I mean we probably wouldn't have anything left."

The Performance of Privatised Enterprises in Developing Countries
AbstractPrivatisation has been advocated as the predominant way to solve the problems facing ailing public enterprises in developing countries. Despite this, the policy remains controversial. The available empirical evidence on the operational and financial performance of enterprises after privatisation has often painted a rosy picture. This paper reassesses the situation using a larger sample of enterprises and a comparative perspective between privatised utilities, non-utilities and private enterprises that have never been state owned. The results of our analysis point to there being differences in the performance across the three groups of enterprises and, in particular, to a deterioration in performance among privatised utilities. This suggests that the earlier optimism over the efficacy of privatisation may have been premature.

Meeting Notes - September 14, 2004
Police Reform Through Community-Based Policing: Philosophy and Guidelines for Implementation
Hesta Groenewald and Gordon Peake, rapporteurs
Police reform is being increasingly recognized as a fundamental element of conflict management.
A police service supported by the community and capable of arresting insecurity can have a far-reaching impact in enabling lasting economic, social, and political development. Police reform also can complement and embolden other programming in the areas of security sector reform, rule of law, and good governance. Efforts to reform the police and improve their service delivery face daunting political, financial, logistical, and historical obstacles. Its very complexity can be intimidating, touching on issues of management, leadership, political will, attitudes, established behaviors, and negative public perceptions. However, its centrality means that it cannot be shied away from. With police reform being undertaken by an ever-widening range of actors, a clearer understanding of what police reform entails and how it should be undertaken is essential.

Its classic and signature subs take on a variety of shapes, sizes, and styles ranging from the double cheese prime rib to the classic italian donning black olives, mozzarella, red-wine vinaigrette, and plentiful sliced meats. Those closely monitoring their waistlines can take unabashed bites of sandwiches that have fewer than 500 calories, such as the honey-bourbon chicken, Baja-chicken, and small black-angus-steak subs or all flatbread sandwhiches. Quiznos' Toasty Bullets and Torpedoes offer slimmer versions of sub fare and flaunt supreme aerodynamics when shot out of T-shirt cannons and into mouths. A selection of Flatbread Sammies, soups, and salads round out Quiznos' varied menu.
Inventive combinations of locally sourced ingredients typify the fresh dishes that emerge from the kitchen at Zookini's. The cranberry burger brandishes ground beef mixed with dried cranberries and cream cheese, while the marinated margarita chicken rests on thick slices of ripe tomatoes. Pastas are all made in-house and serve as the foundation for the Zoo-preme carbonara and fettuccine alfredo. The eatery's eco-conscious, community-centered mentality carries over into the building itself, which is partially made from recycled materials, and the dining room walls bear the work of local artists.
Celebrating 20 years in Lubbock, the chefs at Fortune Cookie Chinese Restaurant prepare fresh recipes according to Chinese tradition. Their sizable menu starts with deep-fried specialties such as egg rolls and pork wontons, before segueing into entrees of sweet and sour chicken, mongolian beef, and double-cooked pork. Vegetarians can delight in broccoli in ginger sauce or lap up mouthfuls of mushroom soup. The kitchen team also arranges party trays that can provision family reunions, corporate functions, and church gatherings.
Beginning as a single shop in 1988, Racer Car Wash has expanded to include two additional Lubbock locations and continues to dole out soft-cloth washes and spot-free rinses.

As the shop?s reputation grew, so did its menu as chefs churned out a mouthwatering roster of gourmet-cookie recipes, each created and carefully tested in Atlanta. The tempting options now include snickerdoodle, peanut butter with M&Ms, and chewy pecan supreme, as well as freshly baked fudge and cheesecake brownies, and cookie sandwiches stuffed with frosting.

Endangered otters making a comeback in East Lancashire
6:00pm Wednesday 26th February 2014 in News By Jon Robinson, Reporter
OTTERS are making a comeback in East Lancashire after a series of sightings this year.
Brockholes Nature Reserve, in Samlesbury, had its first sighting in its history last month, to join a raft of other recordings up and down the River Ribble.
The semi-aquatic mammal has been endangered since the 1950s in many areas of the UK due to the use of chlorinated hydrocarbon pesticides, habitat loss, and water pollution.
The Wildlife Trust, Canal and River Trust and The Ribble Rivers Trust have been working over the last few years to help improve the otter's natural habitats in East Lancashire.
The sighting at Brockholes coincides with an increase in otter numbers across the country.
The reserve, owned by the Wildlife Trust for Lancashire, Manchester and North Merseyside, opened in April 2011, and otters have been seen swimming in the lake.
The Ribble Rivers Trust has also reported an increase in sightings, as well as an increase in the number being hit by cars.
The group has been planting trees and erecting fences to help protect their natural environment.
It has also been cleaning the water, and trying to remove any harmful chemicals.
Alan Wright, from the Wildlife Trust said: "We have been waiting on tenter-hooks since we learned that there were otters further up the River Ribble.
"This is the first time in our history that otters have been seen here and it's fantastic news.
"The number of otters has been increasing across the country over the last few years, and this is the first time that they have been recorded in this area of East Lancashire.
"It's a massive boost for the reserve, and there is no reason to think that more are not on their way.
"Recent work by other groups, including the Canal and River Trust, has helped to clean their natural habitat and help them grow in numbers, and we are now starting to see the benefits."
A spokesman for the Ribble Rivers Trust said: "We certainly have noticed an increase in otter sightings recently. We have been planting trees and fences along the river, which help to protect the banks and stop wildlife from accessing the river.
"We have also been trying to protect the water and make sure it's as clean as possible.
"The number of otters being hit by cars on the road has also increased, which indicates that more are moving into the area.
"It's really positive that more are being sighted."
Some of the locations in the North West where people can go to try and catch a glimpse of an otter include Hockenhull Platts, in Waverton, and Aughton Woods near Lancaster.

This arrangement has not been satisfactory for the actress and she has spent a lot of time and money trying to change the custody arrangement—even being forced to declare bankruptcy. Her most recent attempt came this month shortly before the children were slated to return to France after a visit with her in the U.S. She and her legal team took a unique approach, alleging that her ex-husband "deported" the children, who are U.S. citizens. Accordingly, she sought to have the U.S. government take legal custody of the children.
While that attempt was unsuccessful and she returned her children to her ex-husband, she has not given up on having her children back in the U.S. with her. She has plans to appeal the recent decision to the Second Circuit Court of Appeals in New York and has vowed to go further if need be. In the meantime, through her work with the Children's Justice Campaign, she is seeking to make sure other families do not face similar situations.
As this case illustrates, child custody matters can be complex. To secure the best possible outcome most find it beneficial to work with a family law attorney who handles such matters.

There is no question that pets play an important role in a family. Despite sometimes seeming like a child or sibling, when it comes right down to it, a pet will be included in the property that is divided. Where divorce is concerned the timing of when the dog was purchased could have a bearing on how the pet will be addressed.]]> If it was obtained during the course of the marriage, it goes into the pot to be divided up between the divorcing spouses. If however of the parties owned it before the wedding or was given it as a gift, it is considered to be personal property.
Regardless of who the pet ends up living with, it may nonetheless still be possible to see a beloved pet. Courts can create apply visitation rules to animal. Just as is the case with children, the standard applied to make that decision is what is in the animal's best interest.
According to a poll conducted by the American Academy of Matrimonial Lawyers, this is something that appears to be growing in popularity. With the important role pets play in life for so many individuals, it is not surprising.

One of those bills, AB2034, concerns the rights of adult children when it comes to visiting a parent who is married to someone other than the child's other parent. This matter was recently in the news when Casey Kasem's children struggled to see their ailing father in his last days, against the wishes of their stepmother. The law would make it possible for grown children to file a petition seeking visitation rights of parents who are dependent or possibly abused.]]> Another bill focuses on the rights of sperm donors. AB2344 calls for a form to be completed which would outline the role a sperm donor would have in the life of the child. The need for clarification regarding the matter is a result of women who are part of same sex couples seeking sperm donors to father children for them. The matter also arises in situations--such as that of actor Jason Patric—when a single woman decides she wants to have a baby via artificial insemination, without being in a relationship with the father.
Navigating family law matters is often difficult emotionally. Because of the ever evolving nature of the area of law, it is usually legally confusing as well. Accordingly, in most cases it is in the best interest of someone trying to navigate the system to do so with the assistance of a family law attorney.

If you are a resident of the state of California, establishing visitation with your grandchildren may not be an easy task. This is because judges do not automatically provide for that when both parents of the children do not want them to spend time with grandparents. Accordingly, if you are seeking to establish visitation with grandchildren who are currently estranged it is probably in your best interest to work with a lawyer who has experience handling such cases. To learn more about establishing visitation with a grandchild please see our grandparents' rights page.]]>
In reaching this conclusion the following factors were taken into consideration:
Residents of California may be aware that after filing for divorce the state requires a couple wait for six months before moving forward. It is the only state in the country that requires this long of a "cooling-off" period. Also making it more difficult to divorce in the state of California is the filing fee of $395. Once filed, it can take close to a year for that paperwork to be processed.
While interesting, this information is not likely to deter couples who really want to divorce, from ending their marriage. There are many complicated matters that need to be addressed in the course of a marriage dissolution which can result in the process taking even longer. Because a longer process equals greater expense, in most situations it is advisable for someone who is divorcing to employ a divorce lawyer to help. While that individual can do nothing to circumvent the waiting period or filing fee, he or she may be able to keep the process moving along.

The second is thinking long and hard about what should really be done with the family home. In some cases holding on to it is the best course of action. Other times however, fluctuating property values and the costs associated with mainlining the structure and property don't make it worth it.
Next, a spouse's retirement account should not be ignored. To avoid an early withdrawal penalty, a qualified domestic relations order might make sense. Using a QDRO, a spouse may take a onetime withdrawal and avoid paying the 10 percent tax that would normally accompany such an action.
While often an important part of the divorce process, the relationship with a divorce advisor (such as one's attorney) is a professional one. Therefore it is wise to remember that they will be paid for the services they render and an eye should be kept on what they are spending on your behalf.
In the process of dividing assets, it is important to look beyond face value. For example a spouse might think that he or she got a great deal when in fact, the tax consequences associated with it make it anything but.
Keeping health insurance is also a priority for many in this age group. Thos could cause some couples to decide to try to make it work, or in the alternative, split without actually formally ending the marriage.
While children are important to many individuals who are divorcing, it is important to remember that once they are recognized as adults, it is best to cut the apron strings. A divorcing individual who is over the age of 50 should let the kids take care of themselves and place that money into accounts that make sense.

Readers may have heard that certain demographics were more likely to seek this option than others. Specifically, that the marriages of women who are more highly educated than their husbands, have a greater risk of ending in divorce. That notion was recently visited in a study recently published in the journal American Sociological Review.]]> The study looked at divorce rate statistics of heterosexual marriages in the United States over the course of nearly 60 years, beginning in 1950. During that period of time different trends emerged. For example, in the 1950s, education did not seem to have much of an impact on the decision of a couple to divorce. In the following decades however, that trend changed and marriages wherein a woman was more highly educated than her husband were more likely to end in divorce.
At some point in the 1990s however, that changed again. Between the years of 2000 and 2004, a woman more highly educated than her husband actually correlated with a lower risk of divorce. Couples that fit that demographic were 30 percent less likely to end their marriage than those in which husbands had more education than their wives.
The lead researcher of the study indicated that the trends uncovered in the study illustrate the shift to an egalitarian marriage model.
Regardless of the education level of a spouse that is part of a marriage that is ending in divorce, for the best result most find it beneficial to work with a divorce lawyer. Doing so could set them on the best possible path to start the next chapter of their life.

While it can be used to address some components of a marriage, such as financial matters, it cannot address all issues that could arise in the course of a divorce. For example, issues regarding child custody or support must be handled at the time of the divorce, should a divorce actually occur.
Of course prenuptial agreements are not necessary in all situations. They may be particularly beneficial in situations where one or both of the spouses have children from previous relationships who they want to protect or when one of the spouses has a closely-held business. In addition to determining how disputes of all types will be addressed in the marriage, it may also establish alimony amounts should a split occur.
To insure that a prenuptial agreement does what it is supposed to do, it is important for each person to work with a family law attorney who understands the best way to accomplish each party's goals.
Source: The Huffington Post, "A Premarital Agreement Primer," Brad Reid, June 26, 2014]]>
Another factor that the court will consider is whether one of the parents is more likely to support and encourage the child to have a relationship with the other parent. This is important, as another thing the court seeks to do is provide the child the opportunity to have a relationship with both parents. A parent who has a history of doing and saying things designed to make it difficult for the child to have a relationship with the other parent will be looked down upon.
For a child of a certain age or maturity level, his or her wishes may be taken into consideration. Though California state law does not designate a specific age when this should occur, if a judge deems a child mature enough, his or her wishes should be considered.
When there is more than one child involved, barring extraordinary situations, the children will be kept together. Along those same lines, if one of the parents has been a primary caretaker, when possible, that role will likely be preserved.
Because there are so many factors that a judge will take into account when determining a child custody matter, it is important that each parent make sure his or her interests are being looked out for. In most cases, the best way to accomplish this is to work with a family law lawyer who understands how child custody cases work.

The case centers on a father who makes his child support payments through means of a payroll deduction. His employer withholds a portion of the man's pay, then forwards those funds directly to the court. The mother is then able to access the funds, without having to communicate or interact with the child's father.]]> This arrangement failed to work as planned, however, when the employer failed to send the payments in after withdrawing them from the man's pay. As a result, the father became overdue, and eventually amassed close to $3,000 in past due child support. He was able to meet that obligation, and even paid an additional $1,000. However, a recent change in state law made it impossible for him to avoid jail time, even after the payments were brought up to date. As a result, he will serve six months in jail, unless a judge takes action to suspend that sentence.
This story serves as a warning to parents in California and elsewhere about the need to follow up on their child support payments. It is simply not enough to go through the motions of making the payment; parents must also confirm that the funds are being received as outlined within the child support agreement. Failing to do so can lead to serious legal consequences, up to and including time in jail.

Taken as a whole, women are uniquely at risk of ending up on the wrong side of the division of retirement assets. While there are certainly exceptions, most women earn less than their husbands, and amass fewer retirement accounts. As a result, it becomes imperative to choose wisely when considering various property division strategies.]]> For example, when weighing the value of a traditional IRA and a Roth IRA, spouses should know how the differences between the two will affect the bottom line once it is time to begin withdrawing. Withdrawals from a traditional IRA are subject to taxes at the time those funds are accessed. With a Roth IRA, withdrawals are not subject to taxation, because the funds went into the investment after taxes had already been paid.
This is just one of many examples of the different outcomes that can follow from various property division choices. When it comes to retirement and divorce, women must fully understand how each life event can impact the other. Having one's long-term goals fully defined is the best place to begin, and California spouses who are unsure of the best course of action should consider hiring a financial advisor to help guide the process.

The wife in what has been one of the most discussed high-asset divorces in the state of California as of late, tried to do this. Jamie McCourt challenged the divorce settlement that was reached on 2012 after close to 30 years of marriage. In addition to multiple homes described as "luxury," the woman also received $131 million tax-free in the divorce settlement.]]> The basis for the challenge was the woman's allegation that when her ex-husband, Frank McCourt, former owner of the Los Angeles Dodgers, sold the team, he sought less than what it was worth. The team sold for more than $2 billion in 2012.
A Los Angeles Superior Court Judge recently ruled on the matter. The judge disagreed with the woman's contentions and ruled in her ex-husband's favor. In addition the woman was ordered to pay legal fees for her ex, totaling $1.9 million.
While the average divorce that occurs in the state of California does not involve a professional baseball team as an asset, people from all backgrounds could decide to contest a divorce settlement. For the best result at all stages of a divorce it is usually a good idea to work with a divorce lawyer.

For those not familiar with this currency, it could be appealing to someone trying to hide assets for a couple of reasons. The first is that those who hold the currency can do so anonymously. In addition, its use is not dependent on either governments or banks. These characteristics could make it easy for someone to simply fail to include the amounts under the "other assets" column of the income/expense and asset/liability forms that must be completed in the course of a divorce.
While large withdrawals from a bank account that have not been accounted for could be a signal that a spouse has hid money, the difficulty in proving such a thing could make it necessary to work with someone in the financial field, in addition to a lawyer.

While the large amounts of money the couple received may at one time have been considered as income, the appeals court determined that the amounts received in the past could not be taken into account while determining child support. In addition, where spousal support was concerned, only the husband's current income could be considered in determining his ability to pay his ex-wife. Though this resulted in a much lower monthly budget for his ex-wife to live on, the court pointed out that the amount should take into consideration the ability of a spouse to pay.
Even divorces that initially seem to be straightforward can be complex once the proceedings begin. Because of this in most situations it is advisable to work with a divorce lawyer.

This trend is illustrated in the custody agreement reached by Halle Berry and her ex, Gabriel Aubry. After a long and tumultuous custody dispute, the couple reached an agreement regarding the custody of their daughter in 2011. At that time it was determined the two would share equal custody. A child support agreement was only recently reached.]]> A Los Angeles Superior Court ordered Berry to pay her ex $16,000 per month in child support. Barring any unforeseen changes in circumstances, that order will stand until the girl graduates from high school or reaches the age of 19.
In addition to setting the monthly payments, the court also ordered the actress to pay the legal fees of her ex-boyfriend as well as retroactive child support totaling $115,000.
While the end result of a child custody and support matter will vary depending on the specific circumstances surrounding the matter, when warranted, fathers should not be afraid to pursue custody of a child and support from the child's other parent. Taking this course of action may be in the best interest of the child which for many is the most important thing. The task is usually more easily accomplished with the assistance of a family law lawyer.

mrspidgeone Review
This is the thickest most durable cotton duvet cover I have ever seen. It is soft at the same time. It washes up like a dream. If you don't like your bed linens a bit crinkly you may want to iron it or steam it in the dryer. This was not a concern for me. Absolutely love it!

Hi, my gallery isn't working as it once did. I can't select the galleria option anymore as it doesn't populate the gallery. Using the other 4 columns I get the pictures to load but only as a thumbnail and not as a Lightbox. Preferably I would like to use the galleria and have it work. Can you help me? Running 1.9 on 3.9.1 WP.
Provide URL of your gallery page please.
Hi the website is www.carpet-services.com and the galleries are under the "Projects" menu.
My slide don't show. how i can edit. (I set featured image already)
Hi, Peerapong
I don't receive any answer. I am in Thailand and can't contact you by mobile. Can you give me mobile No. or your E-mail.
Could not create the index.html file – to fix this create an empty file named index.html file in theme's cache directory (/wp-content/themes/Accent/cache)
Also please make sure this folder /wp-content/themes/Accent/cache is writable on your server.
I have the index.html on this folder /wp-content/themes/Accent/cache but the picture still not show
Could you send your Wordpress account and FTP detail please. I will have a look.
Ok. Give me your E-mail
Send it using my profile form mail please.
I sent already. Thank you.
I sent Wordpress account and FTP detail by e-mail 4 days ago and sent it again today. Please help me as soon as possible. I just to use my website.
I can do it already. Thx
I'm trying to create an image gallery page (just like the one in the demo, with the lightbox, etc), but I'm having a hard time figuring it out. I've went through the manual but it didn't really help me in this case.
Can you point me in the right direction if there is any documentation on how to create a gallery like one in the demo? http://themes.themegoods2.com/accent/?gallery=this-is-gallery-build-from-custom-post-type-with-image-uploader-backend
You have to create a gallery using. Wordpress Dashboard > Galleries.
To use portfolio galleries.
Go to appearance >menus. Then select which gallery you want to add to your menu items.
If you can't see it, click on screen option (top right) and check on galleries
Thanks for your response. I've followed those steps. 1. Created a new gallery and published it. 2. Added pictures to it. 3. Added the gallery to the menu.This is how it shows up: http://www.touch.flapics.com/?gallery=test-gallery
By the way, the first time I go to the page, the pictures show up. After that, no pictures show up. Not sure if its a theme problem or a wordpress problem.
Strange, did you edit theme code? Also could you try to disable all plugins please.
All plugins are disabled. It's a fresh install, updated to the latest version of WP, and applied the theme. I haven't done any type of modifications to it.
The one thing I did do (which I did 30 minutes ago) was I installed a plugin named "Photo Gallery" to see if I could create a gallery that way. But it doesn't work with this theme enabled (I tried a different stock theme and it worked fine). I have disabled the plugin.
Got it working. The issue was the following:
In the Accent Admin > Galleries, under "Gallery styles", I had chosen "Galleria" (not knowing the difference). I just changed that to "4 Columns" and the gallery displays just like in the demo.
Ok and thanks for sharing

If (more like when) Broner beats Paulie convincingly and Pac man beats Rios then i would love to see Broner vs Pac man. WHy? Because i want to see if Broner really has the goods and it will allow us to see what Manny has left in the Tank. Broner hasnt really fought any really truly tough competition IMO. Plus if Pac man wins that will bring more focus to the Mayweather fight. If Broner wins then the media might start hyping Mayweather vs Broner. Doubt they would fight but what if Floyd vs Broner for his farewell fight took place?
None of this is ever going to happen but i got excited thinking about it. Thoughts?

You guys really think this fight has no chance of happening? I think Pac has a better chance of landing Broner than Mayweather. Pac beating up Broner would be the closest we would ever get for Mayweather, i can see them selling it since its Pacquiao vs Mayweather jr. Pactards will go wild after this. Broner will have to take the terms of Pacquiao but if he's really confident then that he could do it then why not.
Idk about better chance than Mayweather, but if Pacquiao vs Broner is a fantasy fight then so is Pacquiao vs Mayweather.

26 year-old Girls star Zosia Mamet recently opened up about her eating disorder in a long and personal piece in Glamour Magazine:
"Here's how I think of my eating disorder: I'm an addict in recovery. We've brought other addictions into the light; we've talked about them, dissected them, made them acceptable issues to discuss and work out. We need to treat eating disorders just as seriously. (What's different about eating disorders, of course, is that you can't just avoid food for the rest of your life. You have to eat to live.) Nobody is addressing the fact that so many women wake up in the morning, look at themselves in the mirror, and, out of habit, attack what they see. Maybe that's not an all-out disorder, but it's certainly the seed of one. I read a study once that said that more than a third of casual dieters develop pathological eating habits (and of those, up to 25 percent wind up with an eating disorder). Of course, not all of those people will end up deathly ill, but obsession–and doesn't every diet require some degree of obsessing?–is a slippery slope. Did you know that only one in 10 people who are suffering gets proper treatment? And that eating disorders have the highest death rate of any mental illness?"

Miranda Kerr recently told us that she only needs 15 minutes every morning to get ready (icluding showering and breakfast) and today, we have another celeb that reveals how much time it takes her to look flawless – Sofia Vergara:
On her 75-minute morning routine:
"An hour and 15 minutes. I take my time—I like showering, scrubbing, bubbling. Everyone is always rushing me! They'll lie about when an event starts to try to get me there on time. But I always know, so I don't give a damn. I don't always curl my hair or wear false lashes, but I do full makeup every day and I always have."
… says Sofia.

19 Action News has now learned the cost of a huge crash last month shutting down I-90 and forcing the removal of a bridge.
The state Department of Transportation says the cost for demolition and the removal of debris was $286,000.
Police said a truck driver traveled with the bed of his truck up, he hit a bridge, and that caused the damage.
The bill will be sent to the insurance company listed on the police report for the trucking company.
Driver Michael Edwards was hit with traffic charges.
He is pleading not guilty, and the cases are making their way through court.

I made one of these for my daughter a few years ago and have decided they are great presents for friends having kids. The nice thing about the project is that they are mega easy, take only an hour or so each and kids love them. I got a little carried away this time and decided to make several at once. I just couldn't help having a little fun taking pictures afterwards either.
The car bodies are made from 3/4" white ash and colored with analine dye and finished with shellac. The wheels are maple and finished with tung oil. I picked up a hundred of the wheels somewhere online for about $0.20 a wheel.
The first one was cut with a bandsaw and I used files to smooth the profile, but filing took forever so I made a pattern for routing. It was a little frightening to route such a small object. I also lost two in the process when I hit some wave in the grain.

Very nice cars! And the colors!
I'm very interested in staining wood, also to make some toys for the kids. One question about anilines: Do you paint the pieces or bath them in aniline?
(I'm not sure if bath is the right verb here, I mean putting them into the aniline solution for some time)
thanks for sharing
#13 posted 672 days ago
gepatino, thanks for the question.
Before I put analine dyes on wood, I flood the surface with water, wipe off the excess, let it dry and then sand it smooth to 220 grit. This gets rid of the strongly raised grain that happens with water soluable dyes.
Before applying the dye, I wet the surface again with a wet rag, spray bottle or wet brush. This opens the grain a little so that the surface accepts the dye more evenly (less splotching). Then I add the dye with a soft nylon brush, although I imagine any brush will do. Sometimes I apply with a rag with swirling motions. This is particulary good if trying to blend colors. I let the piece dry and then add another coat or two until I have a nice deep even color. If the grain raises significantly again I'll sand it lightly with 220 and usually have to add more dye to color spots that I sand through.
#14 posted 672 days ago
Thanks for the quick answer, do you wet the surface before each aniline hand?
#15 posted 672 days ago
I only lightly wet the surface if I let it dry completely between each application. If the surface is large enough (larger than these little toys, like a bowl) I'll just coat one side, coat the next and then go back to the first using swirling motions to try and blend the dye as much as possible.
