Prevent heartworm disease, treat adult fleas, and protect against intestinal parasites with Advantage Multi 3-9 lbs. Topical applications once a month make it easy to keep your dog protected.
Advantage Multi is: is a topical liquid that is applied to the skin monthly in order to control fleas, prevent heartworm disease, and control/treat roundworms, hookworms, and whipworms.
What are the benefits? 1. Easy to use and only needs to be given monthly; 2. Provides broad-spectrum protection against common intestinal parasites; 3.Kills adult fleas and heartworm larvae.
What outcomes can be expected? Advantage Multi kills immature heartworms that your dog was exposed to in the preceding month if used as directed. This medication also protects against common intestinal parasites and can kill adult fleas. Some remaining fleas may be seen for up to 6 weeks after a treatment if there is a severe flea infestation.
Who is it for: dogs and puppies over 7 weeks of age who weigh at least 3 lbs.
How is it given?
1. Advantage Multi can be given year round or seasonally during mosquito season depending on the recommendation of your veterinarian.

2. Apply this medication monthly on the same day every month. In order to apply, remove the applicator tube out of the package and apply all contents of the tube directly on your dog's skin between the shoulder blades. Try to avoid direct contact with the hair coat.
3. Try to keep your dog from licking the application site until the liquid is dry (about 30 minutes).
How does it work? The active ingredients in Advantage Multi (imidacloprid and moxidectin) work to kill fleas, heartworm larvae, and susceptible intestinal parasites by attacking the affected parasite's nervous system which results in eventual death.

Generic Name: Imidacloprid plus moxidectin.
Common Brand Name:Advantage Multi.

Possible Side Effects: Possible problems associated with this medication include scratching and irritation at the application site. A medicinal odor and residue at the application site have also been reported. Other more severe side effects include depression, salivation, incoordination, panting and tremors.
Allergic reactions may occur.
Contact your veterinarian immediately if your pet is acting unusual in any way after being given Advantage Multi.
Precautions: Do not use in this medication in dogs who are allergic to imidacloprid or moxidectin. Avoid use in dogs that are sick, debilitated, underweight, or in dogs/puppies less than 7 weeks of age or less than 3 lbs of body weight.

Javaris Crittenton, Nick Young, Mike James for Rip Hamilton
Ok, so the wizards are off to a really shaky start. The locker room chemistry, something we have never had problems with seems to be breaking apart. So why trade for another jump shooter?
Our sg production has been pretty inconsistent. Rips played in dc before. He's played in Flips system so he knows all the little tricks. He can run for days so he will wear opposing twos down. Catch and shoot guy for Gil and a UConn guy for Caron. He's got a ring.
For the wiz these guys weren't going to get any run with us. The Pistons aren't going anywhere anytime soon. Rips got 3 good years left at the most anyways. Get Rip off the books and continue the rebuilding process.
While I think we need a consistent big the most, even before Twan's return Dray had started to come down to earth, if we can add consistent veteran 2 while giving up guys who don't play it might be worth it. We still have Foye, Miller, and Dom along with Blatche to trade for a big. The biggest draw backs are adding 3 more guaranteed years and carrying 4 sgs (Foye, Miller, DSteves). Its a little more appealing then the SJax trade I believe.
What do you guys think?

Chloride Copper Mine developer still pursuing plan

KINGMAN -- A company seeking to re-open the Chloride Copper Mine says it's still pursuing the project even though the firm has run into financial difficulties.
The Kingman Daily Miner reports that the Sierra Resource Group had anticipated hiring up to 40 employees and opening earlier this year, but production has been placed on hold because of financial problems with the company.
The company purchased the mine 15 miles northwest of Kingman and four miles south of Chloride in April 2010. The firm plans to use open-pit mining to produce up to 5.4 million pounds of copper cathode each year.
Last year, the federal Bureau of Land Management accepted the company's mine operation plan.

figma Kyoko and Saber/Zero Previewed, Guess Which One I'm Excited For?
New figmas have been announced recently that should appease a lot of both these characters fans, although I'm not particularly fond of one of them for reasons which I shall torture you (translation: rant) with later. First off, the character which I really, really, reeeeeaaally admire, "Puella Magi Madoka Magica's" Sakura Kyoko. Kyoko might not garner the same level of popularity as the other puella magi, but I found her backstory quite interesting and her voracious appetite very cute. Her exposed fang is of course, also one of her biggest selling points. The figma looks to be excellent again, and I'm sure that huge spear she holds will make for some pretty dynamic poses. I'm hoping there's not much in terms of paint quality issues, but so far, the uncolored prototype is already an A++ for me. Continue reading
GSC Saber Lily Gets Re-release Much to the Delight of New Collectors
In a completely unexpected move, GSC is re-releasing arguably their most popular (and sought after) figure ever, the pure white knight, Saber Lily ~Distant Avalon~. While extra sales are sure to be expected from this, the timing of the release is quite awkward considerin that it has been 2 years since the figure has been released at with the "Fate/Zero" anime approaching, one would think that GSC would focus on that series. Anyways, this 1/7 beauty needs no further introduction as she's been featured almost everywhere to the delight of owners and misery of those who weren't able to get her cheap. She comes out swinging her swords in January 2012 for a relatively positive price of 9800 yen. Don't miss this second chance at getting her!

Hi Dedalx,
Back to the pictures plus description on subcategories, when you say "you can use standard opencart option to show categories images and description", this "standard opencart option" is not in Beautyshop theme?. Can I show category images and description in this theme? Thank you again.
All opencart themes support category description and images. This is not theme feature, this is opencart feature. So yes, you can use this in my theme too.
How can i set slider like this…http://www.beauty-oc.any-themes.com/beautyshop1/
Full Slider setup guide provided in theme documentation (in Documentation folder). If you follow documentation steps you will get slider like on my sample site.
Hi Category Menu Disappear After install the theme. Why? i required category menu… please help..
Go to "Modules" in OpenCart admin, install "category" module and choose when you want to show it (at the Content Left for example on Home page and/or other pages).
issue solved
Can I straight away use it like what had I used for blogger? Or I still need to install Open Cart?
What you mean? This theme is for OpenCart. Every engine have special themes for it only. You cannot use one theme for different engines, this is impossible.
Default products display type:Grid not working…How can i set slider like this… http://www.beauty-oc.any-themes.com/beautyshop1/
Please come to skype and help…
Its work. You already have cookie from OpenCart, so you see list by default. But all new users on your site will see grid by default. Read theme documentation carrefuly – its describes how to setup slider like in demo.
Hello slider Not working.. Please Help done based on documentation but not working. please solve the issue.

Best regards and thanks
Hello, you can change this words in opencart language files, Look to files header.php and cart.php in opencart language folder.
Hi,I like this theme but I have two questions before i purchase. Under this http://www.beauty-oc.any-themes.com/beautyshop1/index.php?route=common/home
The feature area, can I have 4 images instead of 5 in a row?
2. The top navigation, can i remove the rectangular, i wan a black top navigation, without the rectangular background.
Thank you very much.
Hello. You can have 4 images in a row if you will use left or right column for widgets or category menu. Yes you can make solid color for top navigation in theme control panel.
Are you shure that you set "Enabled" for theme configuration? You settings must look like this http://d.pr/i/1bSY (screenshot)
Hi dedalx,
It's a great theme, thanks for it !
1 question, my featured area only shows 4 items instead of 5 items, how come ?
Kind regards, Antoine
Do you setup "limit" in featured module?
I made a mistake with the slider, got figured out what to do now only I messed up the complete installation with adding languages so I have to start all over again, but then again it's good for expirience thanks for your reply dedalx. If I have more questions I let you know
Okey =) Dont forget to leave a stars rating for theme in Download tab in your themeforest account. Thank you!
iwant give me full configuration the green themes
and ihave question my logo 150*150 its down to contenet
please help
Hello,you can configurate theme by provided step by step Documentation. What you mean in "green" themes?
You should resize your logo to fit theme.
Hi. i am interested in this theme. Two questions here 1. Logo Size. It looks like the size for this theme is 170×32px. This is very small if I resize my logo to this dimension. Can I adjust the size in the template? 2. Colour of the Categories. Can I change the colour? Cheers
Hello. To add biggest logo you will need to change some CSS values. I will think how to add this feature to theme Admin in future updates.
Hi. May I know when you are adding this feature? If it is not going to be in this 2 weeks, then will you advice where to change the css values? Tks
Yes, if you will by theme you can send me logo and ftp access, I will help you to adjust css values.
I have installed it on 1.5.2 and when I try to register its giving major errors? Please advise how to fix this can checkout the wheel just keeps on spinning???
Also the facebook is not working.
and the smart phones views are not working on Iphone Or Android….
Hello. First of all – use latest OpenCart version, it have fixes all major opencart bugs. Second – send me a link to your website, what errors and where you see. I cannot help if I dont see what you see.
I must be an idiot. I just got open cart and downloaded this beautiful theme. All I can get to is the standard open cart admin. Where do I go to customize colors etc? Thanks!
Helli, read provided with theme Documentation, it is described how to use theme. Theme admin in Modules.
Thank you! I think I must have installed it wrong. The Documentation tells me clearly where to look but that module doesn't show up as an option…
Give me access to your opencart admin panel to email@example.com, i will check
I sent it. Did you get it?? Thanks!
Answered to email.
It's up and running now! Totally user error on my part! Thank you for all your help!
Hi, is there a way to remove the "Wish list" and "compare" buttons from the featured module? Thanks
You can remove it from featured.tpl file or use display:none; for this elements in Custom css.
I need to change to product title in categorie list to a smaller font I have edited in stylesheet.css but nothing changes. In the theme options in admin panel, there is a section called font-style, but here I can not edit the size of the product title..
Please help!
You can edit HEADERs font sizes in theme admin panel. Product title is header too on some pages. But if you want to edit products titles in grid/list display you can add CSS in "Custom code" tab in theme admin panel. Dont forget to add "!important" to styles that you want to override. Dont edit stylesheet.css file directly, some of CSS values is dynamic. Use admin panel "Custom code" feature.
Ok, thanks for your answer. It wasn´t the size, it was the excerpt.. Do you know where to change this so more letters will show? Would really appriciate it!
You want to disable auto shortening for long titles?
Yes please
This can broken theme layout in Grids if your product titles is too long and dont fit in the box. But if you want this anyway you can edit .tpl theme files (category.tpl, and modules .tpl files): find code "<?php if(strlen($product['name']) > 23) { $product['name'] = substr($product['name'],0,23).'...'; } echo $product['name']; ?>" and change this to <? echo $product['name']; ?> to disable shortening
Hello, I am about to purchase a theme to my opencart website but i need it RTL Arabic enabled and responsive to browsers at the same time. is your theme worked with both RTL and responsive?? Thank you
Yes, its work RTL+ responsive in one time.
Thank you for your reply I am glad to purchase your theme

We are testing intercompany stock transfers and we face the following problem when we check inspection lots created at the receiving plant: one inspection lot is created for each HU, while we want one per batch.
We multiplied tests with many combination on material settings on inspection type 01 (which is inspection type used on inspection lot):
u2022 with or w/o u201CInsp. for HUu201D
u2022 u201CControl inspLotu201D: blank, 1, 2 or X
without success!
Letu2019s me precise that inbound delivery is created automatically from goods issue at issuing plant because we activated SPED functionality (then Hus numbers are directly taken from outbound delivery to inbound delivery).
Also we noticed something that could help understand the problem:
1. when issuing plant picks HUs into the warehouse, they confirm TO via RF transaction (LM61). As a result, outbound delivery as a main item and there is a split by several sub items, as many as HUs confirmed
2. when we test the picking confirmation out of a non RF transaction (LT12), there is a main item but only sub items per batch (qty is then aggregated)
What is maybe interesting to notice is in the first case, inspection lot at receiving plant is created per HU while in the second case, it is created per batch!
Second behavior is what we require but RF pick confirmation is mandatory for us!
Is there any chance to change QM behavior in that case?
Thank you,

Occidental College
In theater, we explore human nature in action: our history, dreams, desires, beliefs, loves, hopes and fears.
Theater at Occidental is designed to prepare our students, within the embrace of a liberal arts education, for successful careers in theater, film and television; while also providing unique and effective preparation for success in such fields as business, law, arts administration and education.
We offer our students a series of classes that enable them to develop sophistication as artists and scholars across a range of theater disciplines. Student actors pursue a foundation in American Stanislavski training, and advanced work in the psychology of performance and performing Shakespeare. Classes in auditioning, children's theater, and acting for the camera enrich the acting education. Student designers have the opportunity to study scenic, lighting, and costume design from introductory through advanced courses; and to work closely with faculty mentors on professionally directed productions. For students pursuing theater technology, we provide classes ranging from technical production to theater engineering and architecture. Playwrights are nurtured first in the classroom, with their work often produced with professional directors in our New Play Festival. And our student directors all complete classroom work with projects in the beautiful Keck Theater.
A careful study of dramatic literature, attention to history, and investigation of the place of theater in the development and expression of culture inform all of our students' work.
Our production program is the laboratory in which classroom learning is tested. During the school year, we produce four professionally directed productions: three on the main stage of Keck Theater (one every other year is a musical), the fourth a studio production designed for small or found spaces.
Drawing upon the Los Angeles theater and film communities, we engage a cadre of guest professionals each school year to work with and alongside our students. They direct in our New Play Festival and Keck productions, design, teach classes, lead workshops and offer public performances. An essential element in our students' experience is working with our professional extended family.
For over thirty years, the Occidental New Play Festival has provided a unique opportunity for those student playwrights whose scripts are selected for production in the Keck Theater. Professional directors from the Los Angeles theater community work closely with the playwrights to prepare their work for a weekend of public readings and performances.
From early July through August, our children's theater company delights Los Angeles children in our outdoor amphitheater and at local parks and schools. The company of current students and recent graduates, subsidized with a stipend, also teaches in our Summer Institute of Fun. Now in its 18th year, OCT is one of the most highly regarded children's theaters in Southern California.
Occidental's dance and movement courses are offered through our department. They range from ballet, modern, and social dance through Afro-Caribbean dance and Dunham technique. These classes help support a vibrant dance community at Occidental, and also, together with individual voice classes offered through the music department, provide valuable, and joyful, training for our acting students.
Our Los Angeles location allows numbers of our students to pursue internships in film and television while at Occidental, while our close relationships with many Los Angeles theater companies provide a wide range of opportunities for internships and independent study in theater. We also encourage our students to enrich their perspectives of both art and the world around them through a variety of opportunities for Community Based Learning.
On campus, we have work/study positions available in areas such as Front of House (box office, house management and ushering) and Production (costume, shop and scene shop) through the Performing Arts Facilities organization and the departmental office.
Our alumni include leaders of major theater institutions such as Playwrights Horizon, the Center Theatre Group, the SITI Company and the Guthrie Theatre; Tony award-winning actors and designers; writers and producers working in theater, television and film; Equity stage managers; college and university professors as well as educators working in K-12; and many actors pursuing active and successful careers in theater, television and film.

MLB Trade Rumors has the Elias Rankings for the upcoming offseason, which can be found here. That got me to thinking about the offseason, what the Yankees might need, and who might be available to fill those needs. The following are what I personally would like to see the Yankees go after in the offseason, in order of importance:
1. Starting Pitcher
2. Left-Handed Reliever
3. Designated Hitter
That is all I can see the Yanks really needing at this stage of the game. #1 is obvious: The Yanks pitching in the postseason did not come through for them, and they therefore exited early. The 2nd was something I read Cashman had talked about, and I think it makes sense to have another guy in there with Boone Logan to take care of left handed batters with Damaso Marte gone till the 2011 All Star Break.
And lastly there's the DH. Joe G tried to get by in the DH spot with Nick Johnson, Marcus Thames, Lance Berkman, and rotated some everyday guys to give them a sort of break. Obviously, with Posada getting old, and Jeter getting old, etc. the DH will again see some use as a sort of half-day for the guys, but I think the Yankees should at least take a look at getting a real designated hitter to enhance the lineup. So after the jump I will look at the 2010-2011 offseason free agents available that might fill this need.
Type A Free Agents - AL
1. Vladimir Guerrero - 2010 stats .300/.345/.810 22 HR 84 RBI, 2.3 oWAR - Vlad is a mutual option FA, so its not guaranteed he'll even see the open market, but he had a great year in 2010 for the AL Champion Texas Rangers with RISP (.320/.356/.848 vs Thames .214/.266/.658 Berkman .278/.422/.876) and against lefties (.338/.395/.932 in 151 ABs vs Thames .300/.352/.806 in 130 ABs Berkman in .171/.261/.517 in 82 AB w/HOU & NYY), but of course he is known for his, shall we say, free swinging nature (35 BBs vs 60 Ks in 2010). Coming off an All Star year in his first season as a Ranger, its unclear if Texas will pick up his option. However, if Vlad decides not to pick up his option, he would be an intriguing option for the Yankees, as the bat is certainly there, but the Yankee Way in recent years calls for a much more patient eye. According to LSB, Vlad could accept arbitration from the Rangers, where he would likely fetch between $8-10 million. Would the Yankees be willing to part with that kind of money for the slugger?
2. Paul Konerko - 2010 stats .312/.393/.977 39 HR 111 RBI, 5.4 oWAR - Konerko had one of his best seasons since 2006 this year for a Chicago White Sox team that finished 6 games out in the AL Central, and has a decision to make this offseason. He could cash in big this offseason for a team looking for a big bat to help them over the hump, or he could remain with the ChiSox, a team he's basically spent his entire career with. At 34, a move to DH seems like a logical next step. He, too, outperformed the Yanks' options both with RISP (.323/.411/.962) and against lefties (.339/.441/1.102 in 121 ABs). With those kind of numbers, Konerko could be one of the hotly sought after bats for a team in need of offense, one with slightly different colored Sox. That alone could draw the Yankees to the table. And if the Yankees lose out on a different highly coveted need. But if Vlad is going to command at least $8 million, you have to believe Konerko will at least command $12-15 million.
3. Magglio Ordonez - 2010 stats .303/.378/.852 12 HR 59 RBI, 2.2 oWAR in 84 games - Magglio had a season-ending ankle injury that shortened what looked to be a solid campaign for the Detroit Tigers outfielder. The Tigers have already declined to pick up his option, but his age (36), combined with coming off the injury makes picking him up as a Type A free agent seem like a poor choice for any team. Most likely he'll be Tiger again in 2011.
4. Manny Ramirez - 2010 stats .298/.409/.870 9 HR 42 RBI, 2.0 oWAR in 90 games - Manny is probably never going to be a Yankee, but the slugger is available. However, everyone that has a sports site is reporting that Manny wants to be a Blue Jay, so we will just leave it at that.
Type B Free Agents - AL
1. David Ortiz - 2010 stats .270/.370/.899 32 HR 102 RBI, 3.3 oWAR - I don't know what's funnier, imagining David Ortiz in pinstripes or Papi's desire for the Sox to not exercise his $12.5 million option and instead offer him a contract with more security.
2. Johnny Damon - 2010 stats .271/.355/.756 8 HR 51 RBI, 1.7 oWAR - The Tigers informed Johnny that they were going to look for a prototypical DH and Damon has since come out saying he is open to coming back to the Yankees. I say thanks but no thanks. The whole point of this exercise was to go through and find the best options for, as the Tigers so eloquently put it, go after that Adam Dunn-like DH (paraphrasing).
3. Hideki Matsui - 2010 stats .274/.361/.820 21 HR 84 RBI, 2.0 WAR - I don't know if Godzilla still wants to play some outfield, but its clear that his knees will no longer allow him to do that. He was, of course, World Series MVP for the Yankees in 2009 but last year was a bad start and his numbers against lefties dipped (.236/.270/.692 in 140 ABs) and a reunion is probably not advisable.
4. Carlos Pena - 2010 stats .196/.325/.732 28 HR 84 RBI, 1.5 oWAR - Pena posts one of his worst seasons at the worst possible time. He still wants to field and will most likely go to a team that needs a 1B desperately enough, but I wanted to be all encompassing.
No Compensation Free Agents Worth Looking At - AL
1. Jim Thome - 2010 stats .283/.412/1.039 25 HR 59 RBI, 3.5 oWAR - The Twins found that Jim still had quite a bat left, even as he gets up near the ripe old age of 40. According to reports, he's leaning toward playing next season, but you obviously can't expect him to sign for more than 1 year. Something to consider for Thome is that he's been to the World Series twice and lost both times when he was with Cleveland. If he was interested in going for a ring, he'll find no team better suited for it. He also could be the 2nd Yankee in as many years to enter the 600 HR club (he's 11 HR away). The likelihood of Thome repeating his performance from this past year, even as a LHB in Yankee Stadium, is pretty low, though, and the Yanks don't need to be looking for a DH again next year if and when Thome decides to hang em up.
Type A Free Agents - NL
1. Adam Dunn - 2010 stats .260/.356/.892 38 HR 103 RBI, 3.9 oWAR - One of the guys teams were throwing themselves at when the trade deadline came along, the Nationals probably made a huge mistake in not signing him sooner and not trading him pre-deadline. Now, they'll have to try convince him to stay or settle for the first round pick(s) they will get for him in return. Personally, it seems like Dunn wants to play the field a little while longer rather than be a DH, and the Yankees already have a 1B.
2. Derrek Lee - 2010 stats .260/.347/.774 19 HR 80 RBI, 0.6 oWAR - The fact that he was made a Type A will likely keep him in Atlanta. If it does not, the Yankees would be better served looking at anyone else on this list before this Lee, who carries the lowest oWAR of anyone in this listing. No thanks.
Type B Free Agents - NL
1. Aubrey Huff - 2010 stats .290/.385/.891 26 HR 86 RBI, 4.4 oWAR - Huff had a big year for the new champion Giants, second only to Konerko on this list in terms of offensive output, but Huff did his damage in a pitcher's ballpark, especially for left handed hitters. He hit well against lefties (.296/.378/.884 in 162 AB) and with RISP (.290/.417/.885) and knows the AL East well, having played 8 years of his career with Tampa and Baltimore. He also could be the cheaper option: He made just $3 million this season as the Giants 1B and some time outfielder.
No Compensation Free Agents Worth Looking At - NL
1. Pat Burrell - 2010 stats .252/.348/.817 20 HR 64 RBI, 1.9 oWAR - He, too, was a part of the offense for the Giants World Championship team, but his bat went quiet for most of the postseason, and was underwhelming the Rays enough for them to release him early on.
Overall, while it seems unlikely the Yanks would work too hard on this part of the equation during the offseason (they did lead the league in offense, after all), I believe any of the following would be worth pursuing this offseason as an everyday DH:
1. Aubrey Huff
2. Jim Thome
3. Paul Konerko
4. Vladimir Guerrero
In that order, based on ability with the stick and cost.
Just to give you guys insight on my thought process on who to discuss, I went with guys who were up there in terms of age or years played (32, 34, 40 in the case of Thome) or who have previously played at the DH position. Also, MLB Trade Rumors also provided a nifty section in a prediction of the Elias rankings that lumped 1B with OF and "DH" candidates in the NL.
But now, its up to you. Let's say that Cashman decides he wants to get a bat, a big bat, and you're the scout he's counting on. Who would you choose?


text: Bring Sheed back get ben wallace and allen iverson and you get defense rebounds and offense wallace and ai equal 1.6 million that's a bargain. Then leave it out there for anyone who's interested in playing for the bare minimum namely if you don't like ai. Rafer Alston's just sitting there. You might be able to swing Jason williams before he finds a contender namely miami to play for. If anything if we are still gambling these are pretty cheap options.

Note the interesting difference between this ban attempt and the AWB.
This ban reclassified all currently owned .50BMG rifles as Destructive Devices under the ATF guidelines.
So, if you own one, there are two possibilities:
- If you live in a state that does not allow ownership of DDs, you can turn in your $5,000 (or more) rifle for destruction. You will receive no compensation.
- If you live in a state that does allow DDs, then you can apply for a tax stamp from the ATF, either with local chief LEO sign-off or with a trust or corporation.
Of course, if the Feinstein / Schumer / Clinton / Kennedy bunch are in control of the White House, you can bet that the ATF won't be issuing many (any) tax stamps at that point.
So you can turn in your very expensive rifle for destruction, without compensation.
Another interpretation is that since NFA items cannot be grandfathered (i.e. you must have registered them and received the magic stamp prior to taking ownership), every .50BMG rifle would become contraband overnight. "Mr. and Mrs. America turn them all in."
Just another insidious step toward Ms. Feinstein's stated goal of confiscating all privately owned guns.

How to deal with slow walkers
01/02/2012 | Funny, Japan | 9 Comments|
Rawr, don't you always, like, get sooooooo annoyed at those slow walkers in front of you? Like totally! They don't even know you're there behind them, trying to, like, walk! I know right!? Well, I admit that I'm kinda like that. But it's totally not easy to run in high heels and look around! I mean, totally! *flicks hair* So, I heard that the Japanese people, like, spent LOADS of money researching and managed to solve the problem! They're sooooo amazing! Asians! Like always, but this time without sharks with lazorz on their heads.
Kudos to Hadriel for the great find~

Anybody remember fantasy stud Greg Jennings? Top five fantasy wide receiver, played for the Packers? That guy? Yeah, where is he anyway?
Would you believe 20th in the league in receiving yards (855)?
Would you believe 30th in the league in receptions (56)?
Would you believe tied for 57th in the league in receiving touchdowns with three?!
Man, THAT pick didn't work out....
- Steelers WR Santonio Holmes had more receiving yards (93) than Browns QB Brady Quinn had passing yards (90). But the Steelers lost the game. How is that possible?
- It's been four weeks (against the Jets in Week 11) since Tom Brady threw more TDs than INTs in a game.
- Some running backs with more rushing yards this season than "Can't Miss" Reggie Bush: Justin Forsett, Shonn Greene, Jason Snelling and Leon Washington. Washington had a season-ending injury in Week 7.
- The Jaguars are 7-6, but have only won one game by more than seven points.
- The Chargers only have one rushing fumble all season. The Chiefs lead the league with 12.
- Texans' WR Andre Johnson has had 60+ receiving yards for 12 straight games, including five 100+ yard games.
- In Week 11, Bears K Robbie Gould kicked four FGs for 12 points. He only has 11 total points in the three games since then.
- With four touchdowns in the past three games, TE Fred Davis now has as many receiving touchdowns (5) as Antonio Gates and Tony Gonzalez
- Eight different Eagles have rushed for a touchdown this season, but no player has more than three (LeSean McCoy)
- Sunday's 192 yard performance was the first time in the last 11 games Brett Favre has thrown for less than 200 yards.

RUGBY LEAGUE: Cavaliers undone by Eagles' surge
8:00am Tuesday 10th June 2014 in Sport
OXFORD Cavaliers saw their three-match winning streak end with a battling 44-20 home defeat to leaders Sheffield Hallam Eagles.
Cavaliers led 16-14 at the break, but were sunk by the Eagles' second-half onslaught.
Having lost 80-18 in Sheffield on the opening day of the season, this represented a big improvement for Oxford.
Ashley Brown, Wes Newton, Ed Vickers and Wise Rokobatitoa scored Cavaliers' tries in an entertaining clash at Oxford RFC.
Andy Winfield and Jim Roden kicked a conversion apiece, but it was not enough to prevent unbeaten Sheffield running away with the match.
OXFORD Cavaliers A are still searching for their first win after going down to a 52-48 defeat at home to Gloucestershire Warriors in the West of England Premier League.

"I really don't want to hear it." What meaning and impact these words can have, especially when said by a teacher to a student. I had approached my teacher to contest the answer to a question on the previous day's test. I was ready to prove my point, and I was armed with research I had dug up the night before. But she just shrugged me off, "Go write to the company." In other words, she didn't want to bother listening.
My teacher, without even thinking it through, accepted the answer in the book as the absolute only correct answer to that question. In doing this, and in denying all other opinions, she is discouraging creative thinking. She is saying there is only one way to do something,her way! Cursed be that person who dares to think differently!
She told me I did well on the test, so eight points didn't matter. Or did they? If I steal a pack of gum, worth forty cents, from a store that takes in thousands of dollars each day, would it matter? My teacher apparently did not think so. People cheat on their taxes, which I suppose is okay since the government takes in millions of dollars anyway. What's a few thousand here or there? This is what my teacher seemed to be implying.
Also, but not listening to another's point of view, my teacher seemed downright close-minded. This is exactly what leads to prejudice. What an example she is setting for her students. Perhaps if Austria had not ignored Britain's initial proposals for peace, World War I could have been prevented. This disregard led to the deaths of millions!
There seems to be so little participation and input in government and society today. Perhaps this is because teachers, like mine, imply that our opinions don't matter, that if we think something is wrong we should just keep quiet. My teacher seems to be saying that my ideas and my research are insignificant and unimportant, so much so that she was not going to be inconvenienced by listening. To me, this is the worst form of insult.n

Sweet Treats Recipes
Masala Chai Creme Brulee
This version of crème brulée is flavored with the spices that are used in masala chai. Cloves, cardamom, ginger and cinnamon give the dessert the distinct flavor of masala chai combined with the richness of a French custard. I wasn't sure how it would turn out, but after the first bite it has become my favorite flavor. Don't get me wrong; lemon, butterscotch and green tea are great flavors, but the masala spices are absolutely intoxicating.
I'm not a big tea drinker, but whenever we have a party and serve masala chai, I end up drinking all the leftovers. What can I say, I'm addicted. Even though the flavors of this drink are fabulous, it's probably good that I don't drink this particular tea that often because of its high caffeine content. Masala chai crème brulée has as much caffeine as a cup of masala chai, along with all the fat that is found in a crème brulée. Something else to keep me awake at night!

Date, Hazelnut and Chocolate filled Croissant-Shaped Rugelach
Lulu, my husband, has been asking for Rugelach for a while. He has fond memories of the rugelach that his best friend'smom would make when Lulu was a child. Rugelach which means little twists in Yiddish is rolled, filled pastries. It is not overly sweet. The filling can range from chocolate, to fruits, to nuts, and any combination of the three. I picked dates, hazelnuts and chocolate and I think the marriage is pretty successful as it tastes very similar to a Nutella-filled baklava.
I've never made it before and so when through some of my cookbook and found several recipes for the dish. In particular, I liked Martha Stewart's preparation from her cookbook Martha Stewart's cookies p. 288. I adapted it to my taste and to what I had available in my pantry.
I think that it's still kosher but I'm not sure if it's "kosher for Passover". I could have use brandy, extracts or date syrup but I chose not to, to respect the tradition.

Mocha Milk Chocolate Pot de Creme
A pot de crème is an egg custard that is very often flavored with chocolate. It's sort of a French version of chocolate pudding.
Preparing it is very easy. You basically follow the recipe for crème brûlée, but you bake the custard a little longer to get a thicker result.

40 years ago today, this rather brilliant piece of music was No.1 in the UK charts. Coincidentally, my poor mum was enduring an experience she said she "wouldn't wish on anyone" – namely, giving birth to me. I think I'm correct in saying she hasn't had too much cause to regret it since, despite consistent exam failures, chronic late-development of my early potential and the fact that I talked about death a lot as a teenager. Well, nothing much has changed, really.

Good Old American Indie-DependencePosted in Americans, Grave News, Music on June 11, 2009 by Johnnie
There's a huge underground hype-machine winging its way to Whelan's later this year, if whispers whizzing around hip musical circles are to be believed. A new North American 5 or 6 piece are pencilled in to be the new 'thing' for the entire month of November. From Baltimore or Brooklyn, or maybe it's Canada, they're said to be from that peripheral country-folk branch of American indie, with a good dollop of Talking Heads thrown into the mix to make them extra unique. The four people who've actually seen them in rehearsal are already comparing them to Clap Your National Grizzly Cold War Wolf Fleet Horses Parade, Yeah. And Talking Heads.
Don't worry if you think you might forget about them by the time the tickets go on sale, you won't be able to avoid the hype, particularly as their stunning, never-been-done image will be all over the press by then: checked shirts (worn outside saggy jeans), beards, receding hairlines and at least one member, most likely the bassist, or possibly the drummer, will be wearing a baseball cap.

Plenty of unintentional humour sprang from last Monday's Women's Mini-Marathon in Dublin – although, technically, we're not really supposed to find it funny. As an event being held in the country's capital, a city with a female mayor, it's quite extraordinary that the organisers' theme, from the compere through to the musical accompaniment, seemed to be one of 'let's patronise the girls'. A letter in this morning's Irish Times describes the unfolding embarrassment rather neatly. Continue reading

Can you get the stench of burning flesh in the air? It's that time of year again. Any day now, invitations to friends' barbecues will come flooding in.
No one invites you to dinner during this period, no one says they're having a few nibbles and cocktails in their garden, or in their 4' X 3' yard, in summer, you only ever get invites to barbecues. And because there's been a week of sunshine, they've been out in force early this year. Apparently, it's against the law to burn garden rubbish, but boy are you permitted to turn a small corner of your rear end into a funeral pyre for chunks of indeterminable animal offcuts. I'm sure many of you are now wearing tops that were out on the washing line when one of your neighbours threw one of these acts of wilful fire-raising; smells yummy, your t-shirt, doesn't it? I bet you were delighted when you first noticed what was happening. First you catch the scent of hot charcoal, then your throat and eyes begin to sting and choke, and finally you see the black plume snaking over the fence, the universally understood smoke signal meaning, "Man. Cooking. Now."

News: Azealia Banks Chows Down Beef, Gets Mo' Money After Haze/Hilton Feuds
Thursday, Jan 10, 2013 10:30AM
New York rap newcomer Azealia Banks can thank fans for putting some extra cash into her pockets as reports claim her publicized beefs with fellow rapper Angel Haze and gossip blogger Perez Hilton last week have sparked some record sales.
According to reports, Banks' retail projects have experienced an increase in sales since last week.
The ongoing feud between Azealia Banks and Angel Haze (which then morphed into a larger spat between Banks and Perez Hilton over the weekend) has sparked sales gains for Banks over the past week. The New York rapper's "1991" EP re-enters Billboard's Heatseekers Albums chart at No. 32, posting an 18% sales gain and selling just under 1,000 copies in the week ending Jan. 6, according to Nielsen SoundScan. Meanwhile, Banks' breakout single "212" moved 3,000 downloads last week -- up by 3%. In total, "1991" has sold 24,000 since its May 2012 release, while "212" has moved 118,000 downloads, according to Nielsen SoundScan. (Billboard)
The war of words also got Haze some additional attention and a few extra sales.
Angel Haze also posted an overall gain for her available songs and "New York" EP; however, the combined sales for all her titles was below 1,000 units for the week. Last week, Banks and Haze exchanged insults on Twitter before lobbing hastily prepared diss tracks at one another. On Friday night, Banks then called the openly gay celebrity blogger Hilton a "f---ot," a comment which has since received heavy criticism. Banks' debut album, "Broke with Expensive Taste," is due out in early 2013. (Billboard)
Despite pushing some more records, Banks caught the wrath of GLAAD (Gay and Lesbian Alliance Against Defamation) in light of the beef.
"Regardless of her intent or her personal definition, what matters is the meaning given to that word by those who hear it, and the damage it causes when they do. Undoubtedly there are gay kids who follow her on Twitter who hear this word in an entirely different context. This word is used almost universally by bullies, often as part of a larger verbal or physical assault. This word hurts those kids, no matter what Banks meant by it," GLAAD continues, before listing incidents across the country that shows that "fa**ot" is used as "a derogatory word for gay men." (Ace Showbiz)
Following the statement, Azealia stepped up to defend her image and dicey wordplay.
"Glaad and all these others need to give it a break... Picking and choosing when to be offended..... Pfffft, as f*cking if.," she tweeted January 7th.
"As if all "derogatory" words are not now in 2013, simply just expletives."
"These words get used, in movies, books, songs, films......"
"It's just all so hypocritical. And while I DO feel bad for using the word.... It's kind of weird/ironic to see it all play itself out." (Azealia Banks' Twitter)

Two men have been arrested and a third man is wanted in connection with a shooting outside a Spartanburg restaurant Monday afternoon.
The shooting happened at 2:13 p.m. in the parking lot of the Taco Bell restaurant at the intersection of Warren H. Abernathy Highway and Franklin Avenue.
Lt. Tony Ivey, of the Spartanburg County Sheriff's Office, said someone inside the restaurant called for help after the shooting. He said arriving deputies found a man in a silver car in the parking lot, suffering from a gunshot wound.
On Tuesday night, deputies said they arrested 19-year-old Tevin Thomas. On Tuesday afternoon, deputies said they arrested 27-year-old Reginald Sanders and issued warrants for the arrest of 24-year-old Robert Moore.
Ivey said eyewitnesses and evidence at the scene helped develop the three men as suspects in the case. He said it appears a dispute over drugs may have been the motive for the shooting.
According to arrest warrants, Thomas and Moore were responsible for the shooting, while Sanders tried to help Thomas avoid the consequences of the crime.
Thomas was being held in the county jail without bond. Sanders was scheduled to have a bond hearing as early as Wednesday night.
Anyone with information regarding Moore's whereabouts was asked to call Crime Stoppers at 888-CRIME-SC (888-274-6372). Ivey said Moore is considered to be armed and dangerous.
Thomas was also charged with receiving stolen goods after he sold a stolen laptop to a pawn shop, Ivey said. He said Thomas was also arrested two weeks ago in connection with a few burglaries in Spartanburg.

text: There are some around the league that think that LeRoy Harris may be a better fit at center for this game. Mawae is a finesse guy and Harris is more of a mauler. Mawae weighs around 280 and Harris goes around 320. With the Ravens running a 3-4 defense, Haloti Ngata will be lining up right over the center and the only knock on Mawae is sometimes he gets pushed around by big nose guards. I know the Titans will miss Mawae's veteran presence on the mental side, but the physical edge may go to Harris, especially against the 3-4. Coach Fisher said this week that the Ravens will be remarking after the game how strong Harris is. Let's hope so!

Don't underestimate simple touch.
While sexual sensations can be super satisfying, it's often the sensual touches that can have us hungering for more. With a simple peck, a reaffirming squeeze, a neck rub, or a little hand holding, affectionate touch can bring your bodies alive and make for a much more satisfying, intimate relationship.
Learn to forgive.
Whether you're upset with your partner over something major or minor, it may be in your best interest to get past the issue. Research shows that people who forgive an experience are less depressed and stressed, and are in better physical health than those who won't let go of their anger.
Prop a pillow under your pelvis.
Any type of cushion in just the right spot can change up the stimulation experienced during sex by changing the angle of penetration or other types of pleasuring. Relish new sensations as you experiment with different pillows, varying in degrees of thickness, and seeing which ones you enjoy best.
Having trouble falling asleep? Have more sex!
While sex can be a total upper, in other cases, in can be the ultimate sleep sedative – and that goes for both men and women. As you come down from peaking, your body feels yummy, relaxed and prepped for a nice snooze. So whether it's with a partner or with yourself, have some sex if you're having trouble getting your zzzz's.
Make phantasms the focus of foreplay.
Sex appeal is all about your natural beauty – the self-confidence and charm that exudes from within. When you combine this with your physical attributes and know how to work it, your inner glow will shine through. So don't underestimate what can be done in unleashing the true beauty within you. It can be hypnotic!
Let yourself be lazy during rear-entry.
You want to have sex but don't have the energy to prop yourself up? Rear-entry can turn both of you on, and is so what you want to do! So for making it happen, lie on your stomach and have your partner enter you from behind. Your lover can either support his or her own weight or lie on top of you, and you don't have to do much more than simply enjoy yourself, especially given that the full-body contact is divine.
Where's the proof?
While orgasm and ejaculation are two separate functions, the two often go hand in hand. So when a guy doesn't "cum", it can be a bit concerning for him or his partner. If you find that you're experiencing climax without expelling ejaculate on a regular basis, then consider talking to a doctor about it. You may have retrograde ejaculation, where the semen enters the bladder instead of exiting the penis. While not a harmful condition, it could be problematic if you want children, and may be the indicator of nerve damage or other conditions.
Plan some fun date ideas.
Even when couples manage to create together time, they can get into a same ol', same ol' routine with how they're spending that time together. Investigate what your local area has to offer in planning your next date, like a local winery or brewery, zoo, camping grounds, new art museum exhibit, bowling alley, state park with bike rental, fruit picking orchard... Novel activities will have a domino effect in impacting your boudoir activities as well!
Go for a health exam.
With so many health conditions contributing to problems in the boudoir, like erectile dysfunction and low libido, it's important to go for an annual check up to avoid such issues or to proactively deal with them. So just as you maintain your car, taking it in for regular tune-ups so that it's running smoothly, do the same with your body with an annual doctor's visit. Such a simple effort is sure to keep up your bedroom performance!
