Though my name is Rukmini, hardly anyone can say it right, so people generally call me Ruki. I'm from Hoffman Estates, IL, in the northwest suburbs of Chicago, though I only moved there three years ago from India. I'm planning on a Creative Writing major, with major or minor in Theatre Arts, and I'm interested in Sociology too so we'll see where that goes. I love reading and writing, and I'm a huge fan of the Harry Potter series and the Inheritance Cycle. At Augie, I'm part of the Quidditch team, Prose Board for SAGA (the literary magazine), After Hours (the creative writing group on campus) and SAFARII (an immigration and refugee awareness group on campus).
Yes, you read the title of this post right–The Vagina Monologues. What on earth are they, you might be wondering… Well, here I am to enlighten you. A woman named Eve Ensler interviewed a lot of other women about their feelings about their, well… vaginas. And then wrote a series of monologues about, well… vaginas. […]

Three weeks, three papers, oh my!
Before this term, I've never had to focus on more than one major paper at a time. It always just happened (luckily, I suppose) that only one of my classes assigned a paper as a midterm or a final. One paper, even it's 8-10 pages, is quite manageable. This term, I have three due at […]

On Canceled Classes
This past week, I've had three 8:30 classes canceled and one more that lasted only 15 minutes. So, it's been a pretty good week. Now, I like my professors and I like my classes, so it's not like I'm thinking "Yay! I don't have to go and hear about British Literature or Social Theory for […]

Christmas in January? Why not?
No posts since November? I've been slacking! In my defense, though, four classes, two papers and lots and lots of reading did help… But anyway, I'm back, and though this might not be very topical at the moment, I'd like to write about Christmas time at Augustana. The first five weeks of winter term are […]

What Happens on the First Floor of the Library?

The things you don't see on your Admissions tours. One of the best-kept secrets (for me, at least) about Augustana was […]

1.5 Weeks to Go!
So, it's week 9 and I haven't been home since the start of term. I live three-and-a-half hours' drive away in the northwest suburbs of Chicago, so going home just for a weekend isn't really an option. I'd prefer not to have to spend eight hours in a bus and then another two in a […]

A Little Workshop on Paper Writing
Since it's week 8, and everyone I know has paper(s) due this week and next, I thought I'd devote this post to a little workshop on paper writing in college.

I Made 50 Things About Me AlreadySince I was tagged by Javababe, legation and Ivankaramazov , I guess I should do this.
Do I have to add 5 for each person who tagged me?
I don't want to so 5 will do.
1) I had a thesis/study which involves bananas. Me, my parents and friends had to eat lots of it for a year. After that, there was a period in my life that just the scent of bananas makes me nervous or nauseous
2) I never had a decent toy when I was a kid. No dolls, no stuffed toys. My preferred toy/s were bottle caps. That's casino chips for kids.
3) I blame my lack of toys for fracturing my right clavicle when I was 8. (I was playing tag and hide iand seek with my cousins until i tripped. I had to wear a cast for 2-3 mos if I remember correctly)
4) I've recently signed a DNR (do not resuscitate) for my 96 yo grandma.
5) Now we are arranging her funeral.
I am sorry about your Grandma. What is a tag on this site? I am new
oh, thanks
I honestly don't know what a tag is
Sorry about the DNR. I am sure it was difficult for you but such things are necessary to protect the dignity of life even in death.
PGY2 here, what year are you?
55 'Foon Facts!
I want more ... ;P
Mysteries can be fun ;)
sorry for the loss of your grandma. hope you will find peace and comfort soon.
Now o forgot the wuestion darn it
Sorry to hear about your ailing grandmother and that's sad that you did not have any decent toys as a kid. :(
It would be interesting to know what the results of your banana eating study were. I don't know that they are necessarily the healthiest choice compared to other fruit. Everyone associates them with lots of potassium, but other foods, like a plain baked potato, have way more.
DNR's are never fun, but they are a necessary evil unfortunately. I trust she goes out with minimal pain :)
Thanks for the tag! Oh......and if you like, I'll buy you some toys :)
Massagers? How did I know you would introduce adult toys to this conversation? lol
Sure, come get it :)
lmao! Touche!

In the days since CNAV published an article on the change of the length of the month, something interesting happened. Walt Brown, originator of the Hydroplate Theory, realized he'd overlooked something. This often happens when one proposes a unifying theory to explain all the changes in our world, and the solar system, from one event. Especially an event as violent as the Global Flood.

News: Kanye Vows To End Nike's Pimping & Extorting Ways: "It Ain't Nowhere You Can Hide" [Audio]
Monday, Dec 23, 2013 3:45PM
Grammy-winning rapper Kanye West recently dished out on his new relationship with mega sneaker retailer Adidas and why former business affiliate Nike will be forced to change its shady ways.
Despite massive success with his Yeezy Nike sneakers, Ye promised his Adidas debut will still meet high expectations.
"Yeah, 100 percent, it's going to be dope, everything is going to be dope," Kanye said when asked if his Adidas debut sneakers will have as much appeal as his limited edition Nike Yeezy collection. "It's just like having a record deal, simple as that. What if I would have been stopped at The College Dropout and I never got the chance to make 'Gold Digger' and I never got the chance to make 'Can't Tell Me Nothin' and I never got the chance to get to 'N*ggas In Paris' - with Nike, they were trying to confine the idea. They always send celebrity marketing to me and I'm like, 'I'm a designer, I'm a creator, why don't you just let me create? I got some ideas right here and you saw with these two Yeezys right here how much they worked.' At a certain point, they brought a contact - I looked at the Adidas contact and I looked at the Nike contract and I looked at my daughter's eyes and I made the decision I needed to make to be able to make product." ("The Morning Riot")
Yeezy also unleashed some fury toward Nike for allegedly doing business owners shady.
"I appreciate Nike for allowing me the opportunity to express myself [but] it ain't like they wanted me to do a Yeezy [sneaker]," Kanye added. "I said, 'No.' And I Chicago'ed my way into finally having some Yeezy's and I made some Yeezy's. ... Nike will tell store owners, 'Okay, if you want these Red Octobers, you gotta take these ten other Nike's.' And then they'll come to me like, 'Yeah, we don't even know when we're starting it yet, we don't know when the next ones are even coming out.' I'm saying that because you need to hear this, in Portland - listen, at the Nike campus, that methodology, that's not going to work - it's not going to work now because Kanye West, I'm at Adidas. The game has flipped already. It ain't nobody you can run to, it ain't nowhere you can hide. I just got back from Germany, it was one of my greatest creative days in my life. We designed the entire women's collection, we designed the entire men's collection and we designed 20 shoes. We coming in September and it's about to be a pardigm shift. What I'm saying is be nice. Nike, be nice to these stores, be nice to people. Be nice and we not each other's enemies. All that pimping, extortion and making people feel less of themselves, that's not gonna happen no more. And it happens at work too, it happens at school, too." ("The Morning Riot")
Earlier this month, Kanye compared Adidas' belief in him to former Roc-A-Fella Records co-owner Damon "Dame" Dash offering him a record contract in the early 2000's.
"Man, it just feels good to be able to create more, create product that I can control the pricing on, that I can do quality control on and I feel very comfortable to have a great partner backing my ideas and allowing me to think and be creative and giving me that shot the same way how Dame gave me a record deal ten years ago, gave me a shot and I was able to do something creative with it. This is a new opportunity for me, I feel like I got a new family, fiancée, child and a new creative outlet and as a creative person, you need those creative outlets." ("Tall Boy")
A few days prior, the company issued a statement on adding Kanye to its team.
"For 2014, we welcome to the adidas family one of the most influential cultural icons of this generation, Kanye West. Well known for breaking boundaries across music, film and design and partnering with our history in street wear culture and leading innovations in sport, we look forward to creating a new chapter. Details to follow." (Statement)

Meningitis B Vaccine Bexsero Submitted for FDA Review
Vaccine was used for meningitis outbreaks at U.S. universities
A biologic license application has been submitted to the FDA for marketing approval for the use of Bexsero (multicomponent meningococcal group B vaccine [recombinant, adsorbed]) to help protect against invasive meningococcal disease caused by serogroup B (meningitis B) in adolescents and young adults aged 10 through 25 years. The submission follows the receipt of a "breakthrough therapy" designation in April.
According to the product's developer (Novartis), Bexsero is the first broad-coverage vaccine to help protect against meningitis B. The vaccine consists of four key antigen components: fHbp, NadA, NHBA, and OMV Por A.Bexsero is already approved in 34 countries, including across the European Union, Canada, and Australia. Since its launch in 2013, more than half a million doses have been distributed worldwide.
In the U.S., nearly 30,000 doses of Bexsero were provided to students and staff at Princeton University and the University of California, Santa Barbara, under an "investigational new drug" designation from the FDA following meningitis B outbreaks on those campuses. Further, the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) have recommended including the incoming freshman class at Princeton University in the at-risk group to receive Bexsero.
Although rare, meningococcal disease can have serious consequences, including lifelong disability and death within the first 24 hours of symptom onset. The infection is most commonly caused by one of the five main serogroups of meningococcal bacteria (A, B, C, W-135, and Y).
Before the development of Bexsero, vaccines were available only for four of the five serogroups of the meningococcus. A vaccine to protect against serogroup B was the remaining piece needed to provide populations with broad-spectrum protection against these serogroups that together cause most of the meningococcal disease in the world.
The tolerability profile and immunogenicity of Bexsero were established in phase II/III clinical trials involving approximately 8,000 infants, children, adolescents, and adults. No clinically relevant immunologic interference was observed when Bexsero was given concomitantly with other routine infant vaccines. As measured in European countries, Bexsero provides coverage against 70% to 90% of meningitis B strains.
Adverse events seen after vaccination with Bexsero were comparable with those observed after vaccination with other routine vaccines when given alone. Fever — a common event following routine childhood immunizations — occurred more frequently in infants who received Bexsero concomitantly with routine infant vaccines. The fever can be mitigated through prophylactic use of antipyretics.
Sources: Novartis; June 17, 2014; and Bexsero; November 16, 2012.

We then drive to Al Hoota Cave located at the foot of Jabal Shams. The cave's unique beauty attracts tourists from all over the world. First opened to public visits in Nov 2006 the Cave is now known as one of the main highlights in the Sultanat of Oman. Safe walking pathways have been built to add a magical touch to the unique natural formations in the cave. The cave, which is traversed by an underground river, is very long. You need to walk more than 5km in order to complete it. The stalagmites and stalactites dazzle the imagination with extraordinary forms and shapes.
Once we drive back to Muscat, you enjoy a walk through the date's plantation in Birkat Al Muaz, an old village on the foot of Jebel Al Akhdar.

A California firm is testing a version of its multi-channel message delivery service that incorporates RSS.
As the RSS space continues to heat up, California firm MessageCast is beta testing a version of its multi-channel message delivery service that uses RSS technology, but lets consumers continue to receive messages through familiar channels.
RSS (define) has long appealed to marketers for many reasons, including its ability to deliver messages to users while bypassing the problem of spam. However, its adoption has been hampered by many technical challenges, including the need for users to install software to read RSS feeds. This is a challenge for users who are not technically inclined.
"We're the first mechanism that lets consumers get RSS information without having an aggregator," said Royal Farros, Chairman and CEO of MessageCast, the Redwood City, Calif. firm that makes message delivery software LiveMessage. "Consumers can get information that is dispensed via RSS on their desktops, or on their cell phones, or via email."
The company's core product, LiveMessage, uses public instant messaging systems such as MSN Messenger to conduct messages. The instant messaging systems act as a conduit for messages that are delivered to users' desktops via the IM window, cell phones via short message service (SMS) and email inboxes via email. The user dictates which of these the message is delivered to.
LiveMessage was released earlier this year. The RSS-integrated version, Live Message Syndication Edition, will be available by the end of this quarter, Farros said. The company is also testing LiveMessage Blogger Edition, according to Farros.
With LiveMessage, "for example, if Barry Bonds is appearing in public and the San Francisco Giants want to tell users who have opted in to such events, LiveMessage can send the announcement to users via whichever medium they have specified," Farros said.
The baseball team is not a LiveMessage client, but MessageCast's customers include Buy.com, Microsoft and Loreal UK.
The Live Message Syndication product capitalizes on the strengths of RSS, according to Farros.
"With our system, LiveMessage checks on various RSS feeds to see if they have updated or not. If they have updated, it grabs that new information and delivers it the way the customer wants it," Farros said.
Because the software takes advantage of the instant updating capacity of RSS, companies can get event-based triggering "without having to do a bunch of database work," Farros said. "In the past, it could take months to build data triggers into a database. Now it only takes minutes. We tap into RSS feeds and they become a sophisticated data trigger."
LiveMessage is valuable because it is opt-in and authenticated, according to Charlene Li, principal analyst for Forrester Research.
"I get email alerts from Talbot's or the Gap for the sales they may be doing, and I may want that alert sent to me the instant it's available," said Li. "With LiveMessage, I can ask for the alert to be sent to my desktop so I know right away.
"I may say I want it in my email, and they can make sure it goes around the spam filters. These people work with MSN Hotmail. Because it's a clear person who's identified with a Passport login, they authenticate it and say, okay, you're whitelisted. It's the creation of a whitelist. That's very valuable to marketers. And valuable to users, too, because they get messages they want to receive," Li said.

Exit Polls to Protect the Vote
by : Martin Plissner
Sunday November 7, 2004 - 22:08
> Edito > Elections-Elected > USA
2 comments
Published: October 17, 2004
WASHINGTON - Since the 1960's, the exit poll, that staple of election-night television, has been used along with other tools to declare winners when the polls close in each state, and its accuracy is noted later when the actual vote count proves it right. A landmark exception, of course, came in 2000, when the networks initially gave the decisive Florida vote to Al Gore.
But now exit polls are being used in some places to monitor the official vote count itself, either to validate the outcome or to mount a challenge to it.
That has happened in several countries in the last year, and in the United States one organization plans to use exit polls in five closely contested states in November to measure whether there have been impediments to voting.
Last fall, an American firm, whose polling clients have included Al Gore and John Edwards, was hired by some international foundations to conduct an exit poll in the former Soviet republic of Georgia during a parliamentary election. On Election Day, the firm, Global Strategy Group, projected a victory for the main opposition party. When the sitting government counted the votes, however, it announced that its own slate of candidates had won. Supporters of the opposition stormed the Parliament, and the president, Eduard A. Shevardnadze, later resigned under pressure from the United States and Russia.
Bonjour Americans - Wake Up!
In August, exit polling figured in a bitter fight in Venezuela over what amounted to competing landslides for and against a recall of the sitting president, Hugo Chávez, a socialist with ties to Fidel Castro.
The recall's proponents sponsored an exit poll, supervised by Penn, Schoen & Berland, an American firm whose clients have included Bill Clinton and Michael Bloomberg. Sometime before the polls closed on Aug. 15, Penn, Schoen reported that 59 percent of Venezuelan voters had said yes to throwing the president out of office.
A few hours later, the official count, by an election commission under Mr. Chávez's control, declared him the winner, with 58 percent of the total. Both the Organization of American States and the Carter Center, the Atlanta-based human rights organization founded by Jimmy Carter, said that their observers had seen no irregularities at the polls. In response to the exit poll, they called for a random audit at selected polling stations and again found nothing suspicious.
Mr. Schoen acknowledged in an interview that the poll's field workers were recruited by a group that helped organize the recall, but he said the volunteers had been trained to conduct the poll professionally, and that his firm would have no reason to put its reputation at risk by participating in a fraudulent poll. The recall's supporters continue to believe the election was stolen.
In Afghanistan, ballot counting in last weekend's presidential election may not be over for a few weeks, and a United Nations panel is investigating claims of irregularities. But a survey of voters leaving the polls projected that Hamid Karzai, the current president, had received enough votes to avoid a runoff. The poll's sponsor, the International Republican Institute, is a Republican-run, federally financed vehicle for promoting democracy abroad. (The Democrats have one, too.)
Could exit polls also play a role in the American presidential election on Nov. 2? The potential is there.
Votewatch, a nonpartisan, nonprofit organization based in San Francisco, plans to conduct exit polls in selected states to monitor election procedures and record impediments to voting, including voting equipment flaws, confusion over ballots and perceived discrimination by polling officials.
Steven Hertzberg, a San Francisco systems engineer who founded Votewatch, said he planned to use volunteers supplied by civic groups like Common Cause, among other recruits, and that they would be trained and supervised by polling professionals.
From its exit polling, Votewatch hopes to go beyond anecdotal indicators and get a measure of how many people encountered which kind of problems, Mr. Hertzberg said.
The group has also decided to ask people whom they voted for, or meant to vote for, to assess whether one candidate's backers are more affected by irregularities. But Fritz Scheuren, president of the American Statistical Association and a principal adviser to Votewatch, said it was important to note that "we are not competing with the networks, and we don't want to appear to be."
In any event, its backers say, Votewatch won't be projecting who will win or lose in November - only the incidence of voting problems that might affect the outcome.

China index: Beijing cleans up skies, not its act
By Katrina Hamlin
The author is a Reuters Breakingviews columnist. The opinions expressed are her own.
Skies above China's big cities are turning blue, as its economic warning lights flash red. Across the country, PM2.5 readings – a measure of small particulates in the air – fell by 6 percent year on year in the first six months, Greenpeace reported in July. Beijing even scored the city's least smoggy month since January 2011 according to data from the U.S. Department of State. Dirty industrials are leaving town and shutting down – but that's just a quick fix.
If grey skies are a sign of economic activity, the clear air suggests things are slowing fast. Breakingviews' Tea Leaf Index, an alternative measure of China's economic prospects, dropped to its lowest level since May 2009 in June. Signs are appearing that the industrial economy is in some trouble – for example, diesel demand is likely to fall for the first time in a decade in 2014, Reuters reported on Aug. 7.

But since clean air became a target, it has also become harder to interpret. Only nine of 161 Chinese cities achieved air quality monitoring standards in the first half of this year, according to the Ministry of Environmental Protection. Some problems have just been shunted from one area to another. While Beijing enjoyed a 10 percent year-on-year fall in PM2.5 levels in the first six months, Jiangsu suffered a 10.6 percent increase as steel production leapt 9 percent year on year, soaking up demand from places like Hebei where many plants closed.

U.S. drought could spark economic water warfare
By Kevin Allison and Antony Currie
The authors are Reuters Breakingviews columnists. The opinions expressed are their own.
The withering drought afflicting California and the southwest United States could spark economic warfare over water. Scarce rains have left large swaths of the country dry for, in some areas, several years. That's happening as industries from beverages to semiconductors grow concerned about whether they will have adequate access to water in the future. For cities and states situated around the Great Lakes, as well as water technology firms, it presents a flood of opportunities.

Heshan: a poisonous legacy
Heshan, China
By Jason Lee
Heshan, a village with a population of about 1,500 in China's Hunan province, is sometimes given the grim label: "cancer village".
Located some 1,200 kilometers (770 miles) from Beijing it stands in an area rich in realgar, or arsenic disulphide.

Living on e-waste
Dongxiaokou village, China
By Kim Kyung-Hoon
Dongxiaokou village lies just on the outskirts of Beijing, but a trip there does not really offer a pleasant escape from the city centre. For Dongxiaokou is no ordinary village: it is a hub for rubbish.
For years, the area has been home to people who make their living by collecting and recycling electrical and electronic waste – from abandoned air-conditioners to fridges and TV sets. Several hundred families work to gather this "e-waste" from people in wealthy, downtown Beijing.

Stanford's snub to coal typical of Silicon Valley
By Christopher Swann
The author is a Reuters Breakingviews columnist. The opinions expressed are his own.
Stanford's snub to coal is typical of Silicon Valley. The black rock is an easy target for the university's $18.7 billion endowment, which is bigger than the top five U.S. coal firms combined. But shouldn't the principle behind it, reversing global warming, also apply to oil companies, including Stanford donor Chevron? Like Valley tech tycoons, the Palo Alto school seems to shun some evils only so far.

How cities can help protect citizens from air pollution
--Julian Hunt is former Director-General at the Met Office and Visiting Professor at Delft University of Technology. Amy Stidworthy is Principal Consultant at Cambridge Environmental Research Consultants. The opinions expressed are their own.--
The Saharan dust in London last week affected the atmosphere, and caused irritation to the many people who suffer from breathing difficulties. Just as in the smog of the 1950s and of Dickens's day, which was caused by soot from coal burning, the cloud of dust particles was dense enough that less sunlight made it through to ground level.

Anadarko's $5.1 bln settlement adds up in market
By Kevin Allison
The author is a Reuters Breakingviews columnist. The opinions expressed are his own.
Stock investors seem to have a firm grip on Anadarko Petroleum's toxic waste settlement. The record $5.15 billion settlement on Thursday, covering years of environmental claims, was at the low end of a court-defined range which had a midpoint of $9.8 billion. The 15 percent jump in the oil company's market capitalization is mostly explained by those numbers. And it brings Anadarko's 12-month stock performance nearly back in line with the S&P 500 after a bumpy ride.

Tainted paradise
Rio de Janeiro, Brazil
By Sergio Moraes
Back in the 1960s, when I was just a kid, I remember watching swimmers in Guanabara Bay and seeing dolphins race alongside the ferries that transported people to and from the city of Niteroi and Paqueta Island. Beaches like Icarai in Niteroi and Cocota on Governor's Island were very popular.
So I felt sad when I took a boat through the bay on an assignment recently and photographed discarded sofas, old children's toys, rubber tires and a toilet seat among many other objects that littered the filthy water.

China index: growth cannot cloud judgment on smog
By Katrina Hamlin
The author is a Reuters Breakingviews columnist. The opinions expressed are her own.
Smog in China is losing its silver lining. Bad emissions were once associated with economic growth, since they meant power plants and factories were active. Citizens broadly accepted the trade-off. But the relationship may be changing. Breakingviews' latest Tea Leaf Index reading shows growth prospects are the worst since July 2009 – even though the sub-index for pollution is at its second highest average level monthly in six years.
from The Great Debate UK:
Changing weather patterns mean meteorology is more important than ever
--Julian Hunt is former Director-General of the UK Met Office, and a Visiting Professor at Delft University of Technology. The opinions expressed are his own.--
Since the 1990s, the United Kingdom has celebrated National Science and Engineering Week every year to coincide with World Meteorological Day (which this year is Sunday 23 March). This is fitting, given that meteorologists, whose original interest was more in the effects of outer space (especially meteors and lightning) than weather, work with scientists and engineers ever more closely, both in the use of modern measurement techniques and in making conceptual advances in mathematics and physics.

Brittany Murphy's Mom Defends Simon Monjackby Free Britney at . Comments
Simon Monjack, who died Sunday in the Hollywood home he once shared with wife Brittany Murphy, had a heart condition and was due to have bypass surgery.
This according a rep for Murphy's mother, who also lost Brittany in December.
"I can tell you he was excited about what the future held in terms of the legacy of Brittany Murphy," publicist Roger Neal told reporters. "He looked fine to me."
Neal said he last saw Simon Monjack on Saturday, and used the opportunity to set the record straight: "As far as we know he passed away of natural causes."
Monjack was 40, not 39 as was previously reported, he said. Also, there is no indication that he died of an accidental drug overdose, as some reports suggest.
R.I.P. Brittany and Simon married in 2007.
"He did have a heart condition [and] due for bypass heart surgery. What's been on TMZ I don't believe is correct at all; anything that they have intimated is not correct," Neal said. "He was a man full of life and a man excited about the future."
The accidental overdose theory was floated by the celebrity gossip site yesterday, just hours after Sharon Murphy discovered him unconscious in his bedroom.
Sadly and eerily, Sharon was the one who found her own daughter's lifeless body five months ago and made the dreaded 911 call to the paramedics afterward.
"It is a very sad day for Ms. Murphy," Neal said. "In less than six months she suffered a double loss. We are asking that the media be as respectful as possible."
"She's devastated. She's very strong. I don't know how you handle something like that. She is resting. Sharon loved Simon as a son. They were a close family."
The rep said Simon Monjack dreamed of carrying on his wife's legacy.
"Brittany's dream, as was Simon's, was to help children who want to learn to do ballet, sing, etcetera, who couldn't afford it. [He] would raise money for it."
Grow up people they are both gone from this world, and they are together i belived they truly loved one another. Let them rest in peace! Sharon lost to people she truly loued. So stop the gosip!
He died of a broken heart, leave him alone, you stupid people with youre assinine comments hollywood sucks like brittany murphys brother said hollywood sucks you in spits you out and destroys you i would never want to be in that shitty town of stuck up assholes what a shame i feel bad for brittanys mom god bless her i will say a prayer for her tonight,rest in piece brittany simon you are together now with god no more pain or hollywood bullshit.
"What becomes of a broken heart".
I Cannot believe that the MOTHER had anything to do with it Because She Owned it all anyway since Brittany WILLED IT TO HER.!!! AS For Simon, Who Gives A Sheet. Die Pucker.!!!
Sorry for the typos.I think I need a nap.
These nutty conspiracy have got to stop.Brittany's autopsy stated that she died from pneumonia with anemia and PRESCRIPTION drugs
playing a role.It is obvious that she should have been taken to the hospital before it was too late.To believe that she was murdered with her autopsy results publicly known is just crazy.
She probably didn't think she was that bad off.I don't know if Simon did himself in.It has been reported that he had a bad heart.
All the grief had had to bear may have finally caught up with his
bad health.I do believe that he loved Brittany and she loved him.
To think that Sharon killed them both is just nuts.Anyone who would let that thought cross their mind is insane!Please people
quit trying to connect this tragic event to some far-fetched CSI episode.
I am starting to think the mother did them both in. stand to get all the money and life insurance
Tortured soul mates on the same sinking raft. Sad.
Something doesn't seem right. I am starting to get the feeling that he murdered Brittany and then committed suicide. Sorry to put it like that but it's just too much of a coincidence.

Syria unrest: Government pledges political reforms
Syrian leaders have pledged to introduce reforms to meet the demands of protesters, after days of violence in the southern city of Deraa.
Officials promised to study the need for lifting the state of emergency, in place since 1963.
The government also said it would bring to trial those suspected of killing several protesters in Deraa.
President Bashar al-Assad later ordered the release of everyone arrested during the "recent events", state media said.
Presidential spokeswoman Bouthaina Shaaban blamed outside agitators for whipping up trouble, and denied that the government had ordered security forces to open fire on protesters.
But she said this "did not mean mistakes had not been made".
"We should not confuse the behaviour of an individual, and the desire and determination of President Bashar al-Assad to move Syria to more prosperity," she told a news conference in Damascus.Relaxing restrictions?
A committee would be set up to talk to "our brothers in Deraa" and bring to justice those responsible for killing protesters, Ms Shaaban said.
She also said the government would raise workers' wages, introduce health reforms, allow more political parties to compete in elections, relax media restrictions and establish a new mechanism for fighting corruption.
Ms Shaaban announced a similar package of reforms in 2005, but critics say her pledges were never enacted.
At the scene
The announcement came as a surprise to many observers here.
Soon after the press conference, some political activists arrested in recent days were released. The prominent writer Louay Husein, arrested two days ago, is now out of detention and with his family.
The president's spokeswoman confessed that mistakes were made in Deraa, but said they were not the responsibility of the leadership. She denied reports that security forces attacked protesters in the city.
A call for a nationwide protest on Friday went out following the violence in Deraa. Those demonstrations will be a test of how the public receives the government concessions.
Opposition groups reacted to the news conference immediately, telling Reuters news agency that the Deraa committee would do nothing to meet the aspirations of the people.
Reuters reported that dissidents in Syria and in exile dismissed the reforms, calling for the immediate scrapping of the state of emergency and freeing of thousands of political prisoners.
Abdul-Karim Rihawi, who heads the Syrian Human Rights League, later said authorities had released several activists including prominent journalist Mazen Darwish and writer Louay Husein.
Ms Shaaban accused international media, including the BBC and CNN, of exaggerating the crackdown on the protesters.
Estimates vary as to how many people were killed in Wednesday's unrest.
Some reports quoting witnesses and activists have put the figure as high as 100; others have claimed about 15 people were killed.
The government said 10 people had died.
- Located 120km (75 miles) south of Damascus
- Mainly Sunni Muslim population
- Long known as gateway to the south
- Close to Jordanian border, and Islamist group bases in Jordan
- Thought Islamist groups could help exploit collapse of government control in Deraa
Security forces opened fired on crowds three times in Deraa on Wednesday, activists and witnesses said.
The first clashes took place in the early hours outside a mosque. Later, witnesses said crowds at a funeral for those who were killed were themselves fired on.
Later on Thursday, the US issued a strongly worded statement condemning Syria's "brutal repression" of demonstrations.
White House spokesman Jay Carney said the US called on the government in Damascus to "exercise restraint and respect the rights of its people".
President Assad succeeded his father in 2000 and has tolerated little dissent.

Looks tough. It's made of ballistic nylon with a rubberized bottom & leather details. The strap is made of comfortable seatbelt nylon. It's pure function. It's also low profile for when you're not feeling brave enough to tote it manpurse style. You can jam this little thing into a bigger bag and proceed freely.

This Schiit is perverted. Audio "phile" is a perfect term for the guys who create Schiit amplifiers. A tube-amp for your headphones is entering into Cheech & Chong territory.

And those little earbud speakers in your headphones surely can't do justice to the White Album or Led Zeppelin IV or 36 Chambers. When you listen, make sure you're hearing it all.
You carry both your toothbrush and your deodorant in the same bag. Your comb, nail clippers, maybe even a balding product you don't want to talk about?

MADISON, Wis. -- Work has already begun on a project to enhance fans' experience at Camp Randall Stadium this fall through the addition of a high density Wi-Fi network and IPTV system.Crews have begun the process of installing infrastructure for the high density Wi-Fi network, which will allow fans to connect wirelessly in the stands, suites, clubs, ticketing, media and concession stand areas. The project involves the installation of 10 Gigabit switches, accompanying wireless controllers and more than 750 access points throughout the stadium and outlying areas.The result will be an enhanced Wi-Fi system for a better network experience to surf the Internet, check scores and share on social media sites in the 80,000-plus seat stadium.In addition to connectivity, the project will also boost content available to fans at Camp Randall. A specially-designed IPTV system will transform the look and feel of the stadium through an innovative video and digital content distribution solution on nearly 700 high definition screens.As pictured above, some of the screens are being placed beneath the stadium's upper deck to allow fans on the west side of the lower bowl to have an improved view of game action, replays and other video content.The IPTV solution will provide UW Athletics with the ability to centrally manage and deliver customized video and team, sponsor and event information to any combination of the hundreds of monitors throughout the venue. It will also allow for the creation of unique interactive opportunities and feature expanded content on three video walls placed throughout the stadium.

I assume he is saying that because it is less of a drop, therefore it will be "easier" on ride quality and shock life. But honestly, Im not worried. and the H&Rs aren't so low anyways! So Eibach would be too high for my liking.
For me the quality of H&R vs Eibach is marginal. Both make a quality product. Eibach do make some lower priced products, because they want to I suspect.
I see no reason why the Eibach will necessarily be softer or harder simply because they are marginally higher when fitted than H&R's. An assumption here me thinks
As for shock wear this is a misnoma IMO. A stiffer spring will restrict the wheel from moving so dramatically under bump for example. This means the damper will move LESS not more. The damper settings are not changed unless you change the EDC settings. I see no reason for any changes in shock wear at all with stiffer springs.
