On this day of love, I will not give you a list of things you can buy your mate. If you haven't gotten something at this point, you're screwed! (I say go with a homemade card — personal and cheap!) Instead I asked our Facebook followers and polled some friends to find out what they felt was sexy. I was asking what makes ladies feel sexy (not what men find sexy), but many woman felt sexy by getting attention from men, so clearly we should pay attention to what men find sexy too.
I thought there would be a lot of ladies saying a little black dress or great fitting jeans (or my answer: heels), but there wasn't. Of course, lingerie was mentioned more than once, and it's certainly something that appeals to men as well. I personally think if that makes you feel sexy then you should wear prettier undergarments more often (my favorites are Aerie and Cosabella). No need to save them for special occasions or made up holidays.
One woman said exercise which I think is awesome (just make sure you pick up some cute outfits- particularly I love what New Balance and Old Navy has to offer)!
One of the biggest themes was indulging oneself. Taking a leisurely bubble bath, wearing a fancy fragrance, wearing a new bronzer or lipstick. I love that treating ourselves makes us feel sexy! It proves that ladies like to feel good from the inside out. Which is not only cheesy but important. Once you feel good on the inside and feel good about yourself you will become more confident and sexy!
So Happy Valentines Day and Treat Yo Self! (Sorry! Any opportunity to quote and link to that clip I jump on!).

I know most SUVs have a hook on the front or a hitch on the back, but I cannot seem to find anything on mine. Where can I safely hook up a tow rope?
-- Kyle
Tom: If there's no tow hook, Kyle, and you want to use a rope or chain, you really have to hook it to the car's subframe.
Ray: How do you find the subframe? You crawl under the car, look around, scratch your head, and then you drive to your dealer and ask for an oil change. While the car is up on the lift, you ask the mechanic to show you where the subframe is.
Tom: Yeah. We could try to describe it to you, but it's not easy to explain. And we'd feel terrible if you misunderstood us and ended up yanking off your radiator. So it's best to have someone knowledgeable actually point it out to you.
Ray: There are a lot of things you shouldn't hook a tow rope to. There's the bumper, the exhaust system, the axles, the suspension parts. You don't want to try to pull your wife out of the snow only to end up with two disabled vehicles. So much for Prince Valiant.
Tom: So ask someone to point out the frame members to you. This is a "better safe than sorry, embarrassed and out a thousand bucks" scenario.
Ray: Also consider getting your wife some good snow tires, Kyle

A suspect in a hit-and-run is in police custody after sheriff's deputies say he tried to run them over and shoot at them in Augusta County.
The Augusta County Sheriff's Office said deputies were already on the lookout for the suspect's car after an earlier hit-and-run near Staunton.
Deputies were responding to reports of the suspect driving recklessly on Route 11 in Folly Mills when they say he slammed into a car with a woman and children inside and kept going.
"Two deputies arrived on the scene and the suspect was still on the scene. They attempted to block his vehicle in to prevent him from leaving. He then tried to run over two of the deputies with his vehicle. They were able to safely get away from him and then got the vehicle stopped," Sgt. David Lotts said.
State police are investigating reports from deputies that they heard shots fired from the suspect's car after the crash. No one was seriously injured. Investigators believe alcohol was a factor and charges are expected.

September 10, 2003
Albany--While it appears one driver just lost control in last Friday's Fatal accident, a detailed investigation will look at everything from driver error to road conditions and mechanical failures. That tedious process began Tuesday.
Exiting a bypass ramp, fifty-one year old Frankie Riley lost control of her Kia Sportage hitting a median, going airborne and slamming into thirty year old Kell McKaskill's pickup truck. McKaskill lost his life. Riley is listed in good condition but is awaiting charges.
Sergeant Craig Pittman of the Specialized Collision Reconstruction team says "We have both vehicles at the wrecker yard that are secure together. We hope to get there today and do our inspection of them. What we do then is find out if anything was mechanically wrong with the vehicles that might have contributed to this crash.
This Team is working carefully to conclude the cause of this accident using measuring devices and orange paint to do a forensic mapping of the crash. "All this signifies, it lets us mark it so when we come back to do what we're doing today it let's us know where everything was at," explains Pittman.
Accidents such as Friday's fatal crash can take months to investigate. Pittman claims, "We're already about ten more cases this year prior to this time last year and the cause of that, there's only six of us that do this on our team in this area and we work forty-two counties in southwest Georgia. "
It is important for the investigation to be done carefully so any charges made will be accurate. Pittman said "We compile the whole case report and then we get the on scene trooper, we come over here to lee county, we'll meet with the prosecutor and go over the case together and sometimes we'll make a decision."
That decision should give McKaskill's family and friends some answers and could have an overwhelming impact on the rest of Riley's life.

With the holidays over and a long winter ahead, I'm feeling surly. So I decided to blow off some steam about things that are bothering me.
The first is Lehigh County Commissioner Kurt Derr.
Democrat Derr claimed to be upset last week that the commissioners' Republican majority elected Republican Jim Kelly as board chairman.
Democrat Nick Englesson was elected vice chairman.

I know there have been a lot of tributes going around. Here's one I wrote. If it can help the community that has helped me get through Coach's passing, I want to make sure it's available.
Outside of listening to him talk in the green room of Beaver Stadium, I only ever had one interaction with Joe Paterno. I was walking down Allen Street in State College one day my junior year and across the street, I see Joe in a booth in the Corner Room. I stopped and just stared at the living legend through the glass as he sipped from his pop, speaking with another man on the other side of the booth. After a few seconds of standing there dumbfounded, Joe turned and looked at me, gave a little laugh and gave me a peace sign. I finally came to, waved and made my way down College realizing how I made a fool out of myself in front of the greatest college coach of all-time.
That situation showed the greatness of Coach. He wasn't some mythical figure that the media likes to think we portrayed him as. He was friendly with anyone who came up to him on the street. He ate ice cream on a park bench at the Creamery and shared stories with students who stopped to talk to him. Penn Staters never worshiped Joe as some sort of god. Penn Staters respected Joe as one of the greatest men who had ever lived.
When you think of Joe Paterno, many think about all the stats attached to his name: 409 wins, 24 bowl wins, 2 national championships, 5 undefeated seasons, 68 first team All-Americans. But those aren't the stats that mattered to him in the big picture. He worried about the number of his players that received their diplomas, the number of books that filled the library that bears his name, the number of children he helped with his work for the Special Olympics, his five children, his 17 grandchildren and his loving wife, Sue. Those are the numbers that really mattered to him. Those are the numbers that make up the dataset of his Grand Experiment.
Since Sunday morning, journalists from all over the nation have been debating on what Joe's legacy will be. They try to make out whether the charges against Jerry Sandusky and the questionable actions taken by Paterno afterwards will become a permanent black mark on his record or if 1% of his decisions really make a difference on the other 99% of them.
In the days after the Grand Jury Presentment was reported on, it became a national revelation that Joe Paterno was "not a saint." If you followed the octogenarian's life at all, you would have known this fact well before the Sandusky charges were brought about. Joe had bouts of road rage which were well-documented. He had players that hated his guts and coaches that didn't care for him, either. He disrespected sportswriters who didn't give him the same courtesy and let his opinions be known to referees and corrupt coaches.
Everyone can think what they want when they look back in history at Joe Paterno, but this is how I will think of him.
I've only known one man greater than Joe Paterno and that was my grandfather. They were both veterans, they both loved their wives to the very end, they both nourished great families and friends who stood by them. They both also had a profound impacts on the lives of the people around them whether those people actually knew them or not. Sure, they made their mistakes, but they did infinitely more good than bad.
When it comes down to the Sandusky situation, the "moral majority" have slung barbs at Paterno for the past 10 weeks. To them, I say this: Who am I, who are they, who is anyone to determine which way Joe Paterno's moral compass should point? Until then, one would be hard-pressed to find a better man than Paterno. He said that he didn't know how to handle the situation and sending it to his superiors. If he thought that was the best thing to do in his mind at that time, I'm not one to tell him that he was morally wrong considering all the right he had done. One might call me a Paterno apologist for that thinking, but I consider it realizing a man's true character.
How will I remember Joe? I'll remember him as the most respected man I've ever come across. I'll remember him as a great humanitarian and a great leader. I'll remember him for always doing his best and a man of unreachable moral standard. I'll remember him as the man who took the time to make every person he came across feel accepted, even a kid simply staring at him through a window.
Thank you for everything, Coach. We love you.

This is from the Contra Costa Times: Hatte's nose is broke? I knew he hit it but didn't know it was broke.
It's been a tough couple of weeks for A's first baseman/designated hitter Scott Hatteberg.
He said he broke his nose when he was hit with a ball during batting practice before a game in Washington last week. He had dizzy spells for a few days but started last Friday's game in Atlanta.
Hatteberg started just twice on the six-game road trip and made his first start Thursday in three games during the current homestand. The A's promotion of rookie Dan Johnson and the versatility of Nick Swisher have cost Hatteberg playing time.
"I haven't played that much," he said. "They have another guy (Johnson) they're looking at. Health is not why I'm not playing."
Hatteberg understands the A's want to give Johnson an extended look and is not going to make waves. The team is trying to deal Hatteberg, an American League scout said.
"I'm not going to speculate on that," Hatteberg said. "I know it could happen. I'll tackle that when the time comes."

This cannot go on. Humans live in Gaza, remarkably like us. They laugh, they cry, they die. But too many of them die before their time. And that is true for those 29 Israeli military boys who have died, none older than his 20s. Cannot their end be the starting point for something revolutionarily new? Getting inside each others heads, understanding the other, or is it all just too late?
I well remember my first days in my boarding school - the wolf whistles from the prefects' open windows as we passed in and out of our boarding quarters. Prettier boys were openly rated as desirable. It was in my second term, when I was 13 years old, that I first received a note from a 17-year-old in the school rugby team asking would I meet him for a smoke. This was a euphemism for intended sexual contact.
I just heard she's died. I just lost an amazing friend. Maya Angelou was far larger than life: a vast life force. Tall, somewhere around six foot, with a voice that ranged from deep baritone to high contralto. She could recite, sing, dance, laugh, cry, speak, and above all write. She wrote her life from birth to near death. It was a life that etched the beginnings of an understanding of civil rights through to the great moment of the anointing of a black president in 2008.
Love it? Haven't seen it? Bored of talking about it? Everyone's on a Game of Thrones thing so why not drink like it. Whether you're digging it or not check out BarChick's cocktail guide, Game of Thrones-style; drink your way around the Seven Kingdoms, live like a Lannister or kick back Khaleesi-style, the choice is yours, but we say try the lot.
Remember flailing your arms around and howling is despair when that cold bastard Roose Bolton plunged his blade into poor old Robb Stark's chest? Remember your heart dropping when his wife and unborn child were slaughtered before his eyes? Season three of Game of Thrones was pretty gross, pretty traumatic and a lot devastating. It was also incredible television. And now the show's back for more.
We are amid the greatest revolution human life has ever known - the liberation of communication - in the hands of the many as well as that dangerous few. Yes of course the danger is there - the danger that what we call news maybe hijacked, distorted, lied about, propogandised. But today I argue that we stand at the dawn of the golden age of what we have come to describe as journalism. The mediation of information by individuals, collectives, groups, whom WE have the very individual powers to choose.
In Jon Snow's interview with Russell Brand last week the presenter accused the comedian of inconsistency for rallying against parliamentary democracy while asking people to sign a government e-petition. I think Jon missed the point. Russell Brand didn't play by the rules of our parliamentary system, he hacked it.
Over two decades after his "walk to freedom", Nelson Mandela has walked his final mile. The impact of his death will reach far beyond the frontiers of South Africa. There will be tears, but celebration for one of the most remarkable lives of our time. Madiba, as he was fondly known, leaves us with a memory of the best in public life to which any human can aspire. His signal contribution to humankind, the embrace and sustaining of forgiveness for his own, and for his people's oppression.

SCHENECTADY, N.Y. – The Union College Athletics Department hosted a Home Run Derby charity event Tuesday.
The second annual "Just Out" Home Run Derby raised funds for various treatment centers.
Money was raised for the Memorial Sloan Kettering Cancer Center in honor of student and lacrosse player Nate Greenburg who has been battling Ewing's Sarcoma. The funds will also benefit Massachusetts General Hospital Cancer Center in honor of student and baseball player Justin Lloyd. Funds will also be shared with Sarcoma in honor of Kristen Shinebarger, the daughter of Shelly Shinebarger, the Director of Student Support Services at Union.
"One of the biggest things I've talk about with people when they've asked me how I went through this was the help of the support group I've had," Lloyd said. "Not only at Union but everywhere but especially at Union. And it feels good to have two other people by my side."
Lloyd is a sophomore outfielder for the Dutchmen. He was forced to miss his freshman season last year due to six months of treatment for colon cancer.
"Just Out" is something baseball coach Paul Mound was proud to be part of because it hit close to home.
"I wouldn't be any place else," he said. "When someone on your baseball team is literally so sick that he can't make it through multiple innings without having to run to get ill, then we wouldn't be good if we weren't out here to support him under these circumstances."
Lloyd's parents said 2013 was one of the most devastating years of their lives. They said watching Union raise money for the center where their son was treated was inspirational.
"When you're going through something like we did last year, it's kind of like an unknown marathon every day," his father, Ken, said. "And Justin's vision was just to be back with his teammates. It's part of the healing process. And these kids have been like a brotherhood to him."
"We're just grateful for everybody that's supported him and that he can play Union ball and be back here at Union," Justin's mother, Jeanne, said.
Union is keeping the donations open for at least a month, so the amount raised won't be known until then.
"Just Out" raised over $10,000 in 2013.

The six-event series launches at Barista Nation SF and is then hosted at a different coffee shop each month, closing out at Coffee Bar on June 13. Each event, judged by a rotating panel of pros, will have three winners; at the end of the series, the biggest winner walks off with a home espresso machine, bathed in latte art glory."

Hey guys, this summer I'm going to do my first retrofit for my 1999 Ford Ranger. I was thinking about going with this complete kit from RFS, http://www.theretrofitsource.com/pro...roducts_id=141. With 50W 4300k bulbs or 5000k with a 9007 relay. I was wondering if anyone has any tips on this retrofit since it will be my first. I want to get all the research done and then I'm going to attempt it. I am going to use a headlight bucket like this http://www.amazon.com/Depo-331-1160PXUS-Ranger-Diamond-Headlight/dp/B005XRPAGO/ref=au_pf_pfg_s?ie=UTF8&Model=Ranger|696&n=1568418 1&s=automotive&Make=Ford|54&Year=1999|1999&vehicle Type=automotive&newCar=1&carId=002.
Thank you guys,
Any tips is really appreciated.

Pod of Cetaceans Cardigan
Growing up on Cape Cod in the 1980s, I have many memories of nautical themed sweaters, with boats, anchors, captain's wheels, or whales forming the yoke. With these sweaters came Nantucket jewelry baskets, alligator polos (collars flipped up, of course), plaid pants, embroidered pants, and any other garment with the shape of the Cape Cod arm littered gratuitously about.
This cardigan was inspired by a pullover my mother started for me and finished several years later for my brother, if I am not mistaken. I thought it might be a fun design to revive. Since winter is almost over and I will soon be packing away her size 2 winter clothes, I knit Beatrix the size 3-4 yr for next year. The garment is knit from the bottom up in the round and then steeked open. Those unfamiliar with crochet steeks are encouraged to read Eunny Jang's definitive steeking tutorial before proceeding. Only feltable wools with plenty of grip should be used for steeking purposes. Neither superwash wools nor plant or synthetic fibers will hold. Although it would be easy to modify the pattern to work back and forth without steeking, the instructions are written for construction in the round.
Note of caution: Any knitter who chooses to abuse this pattern by making matching whale sweaters for the family Christmas card should be flogged, or at the very least have his/her knitting needles confiscated.
This pattern is available as a Ravelry download for $5.00.
or add to cart
Difficulty: Advanced
Skills used: knitting in the round, increasing/decreasing, reading a chart, stranded knitting, steeking, picking up stitches, hand sewing facings, and optional duplicate stitching
0-3 mos (6-9 mos, 12-18 mos, 2 yr, 3-4 yr, 5-6 yr)
Finished Measurements:
17 stitches and 24 rows = 4" in stockinette on US 7 (4.5 mm) needles
20 stitches and 25 rows = 4" in stranded pattern on US 7 (4.5 mm) needles
Note: Swatching the stranded pattern in the round is imperative. I chose to cast on 36 stitches for three whale pattern repeats plus 7 stockinette stitches for a steek. In addition to checking gauge, this extra swatching will provide a valuable opportunity to practice steeking.
Harrisville Designs New England Highland (100% wool; 200 yd [183 m]; 100 g [3.53 oz]): 1(2, 2, 2, 3, 3) skeins #33 Midnight Blue, 1 (1, 1, 1, 1, 1) skein #44 white, 1 (1, 1, 1, 1, 1) skein #7 Tundra.

That is very cute!
You're packing away winter clothes? Sigh. This time of year I (sort of) miss Kansas.
The sweater is very cute. I also spent a lot of my preppy high school years at my aunt's house in Harwichport with my collar popped and my topsiders on. I remember going in to Chatam to shop at Puritan's and Mark, fore and strike, the holy grail of the preppy world. Today I would not be caught dead in a pair of kelly green pants with blue whales on them, but I still have plaid shorts.
I absolutely love this sweater. I think the blue whales on the olive background are brilliant! I really like the whales without the spouts. I would love to have an adult-sized version of this for myself :). It's like that buffalo sweater I knit a while back, but much more classy. Also, B with bows in her hair is adorable.
I nearly busted a gut after reading your note about matching family sweaters! Thank you! I'm half way to the button holes on my seed stitch jacket and can't wait to see it on my youngest.
Absolutely amazing! I love it! I'm gonna have to make this for my daughter! I guess I should plan ahead and do a size or two larger! Steeks scare me.
BTW, I have several balls of Rowan wool cotton heading your way this weekend.
I love the sweater. It's really adorable! Maybe it will be my foray into steeking….
Absolutely adorable! Well done.
Sigh. New England style. Gotta love it. (and I still own topsiders — navy and plaid ones, to be exact. And I LOVE them).
I love the sweater…there must be nostalgia in the air, as I have been swatching and scheming similar themed items. Sidenote – this: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=4y4-5Zouvjs is hilarious, if you have not yet seen it.
love love love!
It's adorable!
That is too cute! I especially love the colors you chose and the buttons!
Absolutely beautiful, both sweater and child! I am such an admirer of your work. It's just lovely.
elinor, this is gorgeous! i love the colors and the whales, and especially the buttons. now i'm picturing a whole family wearing these sweaters and giggling to myself :)
I love this, Elinor. It has just the right amount of cuteness.
This is so adorable! I love the bows in her hair too. :)
Do you happen to be talking to me when you say not to make a whole family of these for the Christmas card? 'Cause you know how I feel about knitting multiples.
How cute! The colors are great and I love the buttons as well!
Wow, that is absolutely beautiful! And so is she!
This is what I like about knitting. I am not a particular fan of navy, light green or white, but put them all together in your particular ratio, and the whole thing is irresistible!
The cardigan looks great & I love the color combination. I like the way you present all the details of the project – this really helps a knitter decide if it's a feasible project.
i love the whales. so precious! the last picture of your daughter (the one with the bows) is beautiful!
[...] off to Joann's for supplies. One week later, thanks to the cleverness of Elinor Brown's Pod of Cetaceans pattern, I had a hat, with one white whale. [Before you think I am too clever for hacking together a hat, I [...]

The statement goes on to say, "The Church empathizes with those who struggle with same-sex attraction, but, at the same time, the Church and its institutions, like Lexington Catholic, cannot condone or promote actions which normalize homosexual tendencies. This in no way detracts from the value and dignity of the students involved. In light of Catholic teaching, the actions of the Lexington Catholic High School administration were a corrective invitation to the students involved to embrace their truest human dignity as children of God."
Craig Cammack, with the advocacy group Lexington Fairness, worries that message the school is sending to the other students goes beyond claims of discrimination versus church doctrine but could even spill over into bullying. "Unfortunately, lesbian, gay, bisexual and trans-gender students are effected at a much higher rate so we're disappointed when adults add to the problem that the students already face by expressing and enforcing intolerant beliefs," Cammack said.

Japanese pitcher Koji Uehara was getting treatment this morning for what the Japanese reporters are saying is a slight hamstring strain, though the extent of it is not clear. The 33-year-old right-hander did not pitch well in yesterday's game against the New York Mets and left the mound after only two innings, but apparently relayed to the Japanese media that his so-so performance was not the result of anything other than the reasons he gave after the game.Per Schmuck. Let's hope it's nothing serious.
Outfielders Justin Christian and Nolan Reimold both contributed two-run home runs to the Baltimore effort, and Reimold returned later to dump a two-run single. Christian, Reimold and Brian Roberts all drew walks in the fifth inning, and Scott Moore drilled a three-run homer in the sixth. Danys Baez made his long-awaited return to the mound Thursday and retired the first two batters he faced, but then he walked three straight batters and allowed a two-run single. Matt Albers faced the minimum amount of batters in two innings, and Chris Ray retired the side on nine pitches.O's bats shine in second spring game, beat Cards 11-3

It takes a lot of nerve to hit the stage and try to convince people that you deserve to wear something like the Miss Alabama USA crown. A woman has to have confidence and courage to do that, right? What if that same woman, however, decided not to stop to help after she hit two victims with her car?
A 22-year-old Tuscaloosa woman was arrested recently for her alleged role in an Alabama hit-and-run that occurred last November. The face in the suspect's mug shot might look familiar to those who follow pageants since she got fifth place in the Miss Alabama USA pageant last year.
Authorities accuse the driver of having hit two pedestrians, ages 20 and 21, last November and then driving off, failing to render aid or report the accident to police. Neither of the hit-and-run victims died as a result of their injuries, but the crash did reportedly leave them seriously hurt.
Now that a criminal suspect has been identified, it is possible that the victims would want to seek justice on their own behalf through personal injury lawsuits. Hospital bills and missed work can cost accident victims a lot of money, money that they wouldn't have to come up with if it hadn't been for the negligence of a careless party.
When someone causes an accident and then drives away, it increases the risk that crash victims won't get the help that they need to survive. Fleeing the scene also limits the evidence that authorities can collect from a driver such as evidence that might indicate whether impaired driving played a role in an incident.
Our Alabama car accident attorneys have experience with hit-and-run cases and can help victims seek the damages that they need to move on with their lives.

Looking at Guidance is a report of the Guidance Inspectorate of the Department of Education and Science, Ireland. It consists of an analysis the findings of fifty-five reports on inspections of Guidance in second-level schools carried out from September 2006 to May 2007. The report comments on the quality of provision and whole-school support for Guidance, the quality of planning and preparation, the quality of teaching and learning, and the quality of assessment. The reports also draws on the outcomes of a questionnaire administered to over 1,100 students in the schools where inspections took place. The report discusses features of good practice and concerns identified in the inspections of Guidance.
This report comprises the first comprehensive review of guidance services in second level schools (students aged 12 to 18 years) since the establishment of such services in the 1960s in Ireland. It was carried out in four parts:
Wide variation of experiences of guidance provision, both across schools and within schools, was reported by the stakeholders. The value of certain guidance activities was confirmed but issues of access to and resources for guidance provision were strongly emphasised by all stakeholders.
This well constructed study and report had several aims:
The study was undertaken through a combination of desk and field research and involving quantitative and qualitative methods. Policy literature and good examples of practice from other countries were collected. Existing Irish resources were searched, catalogued, and appraised according to the criteria of (i) up to date, (ii) user friendly, (iii) comprehensiveness, and (iv) relevance. A matrix exercise, a statistical analysis, and focus group conversations were other parts of the methodology.
In general, there was very low awareness and usage of existing labour market information resources. Recommendations include the need for improved access to such information and the need to make such resources more user friendly.
This Competency Framework for Guidance Practitioners, developed by a sub-committee of the National Guidance Forum, is designed to inform the trainers and training of guidance practioners in order to provide practitioners with the competences to assist citizens to acquire the knowledge, skills and competences to manage their learning and work (see National Lifelong Guidance Framework in the relevant theme categories on this web site).
The Competency Framerwork is divided into five parts:
It is also designed to fit the Irish National Framework of Qualifications which facilitates the accreditation of prior learning and the mutual recognition of qualifications between the education and labour market sectors. The Framework will enable practitioners to progress from one level of qualification to another and to take on new guidance roles.
This study was commissioned by the National Guidance Forum of Ireland in 2006 to ascertain the views and experiences of citizens on their experiences of the guidance services that were available to them. Such information as gathered from users and potential users informed the recommendations of the National Guidance Forum as to a future lifelong guidance service provision.
The methodology of the study consisted of:
The findings showed a keen awareness of respondents of the value of career guidance services, a wide range of opinions on the existing services, and support for increased public investment in the services. Many had difficulty in accessing the services, especially young people and employed people, and needed "guidance" on how to obtain guidance!
This Report covers the first two years' work of the National Guidance Forum of Ireland that was established in 2004. It explains the background and work methods of the Forum and provides an overview of relevant research that informed its deliberations and conclusions/recommendations.
The Report sets out:
The Report also provides a summary of key national and EU policies for education, training and employment and of national and international reviews of policies for career guidance that provide a context for the Forum's deliberations and conclusions.
Full details of the code of principles, of the competency framework, and of the research of Irish public perceptions of the existing guidance services can be found in the appropriate policy theme categories on the ICCDPP site.

In the fall of 2012, two books featuring WWE Hall of Famer Jimmy "Superfly" Snuka were released. In addition to asking him about these two books, I also discussed several other topics in my email interview with Jimmy Snuka.
Eric: Jimmy, you have recently written the forward to the book A Battle Royal in the Sky (review), a book which takes a look back at the lives of many of the wrestlers that we have lost at way too young of an age. What do you think has caused all of these losses?
Jimmy Snuka: Brudda it's a hard business, you have to work and train and have a lot of luck. You can't take a short cut. Many of the guys did what they had to do to get a pay day to feed their families. We didn't know what these new powders and pills could do to us. Everyone wants to be the biggest and the best and just do what they thought would help. Brudda, we would be on the road seven days a week. We didn't get to see our families for months at a time. There is a lot of cheating, divorce and heartbreak. Don't get me wrong Brudda, it can be a good time on the road with the boys. But all the drinking and drugs catch up to you. Today, the powders and pills are everywhere, I mean strong things. We have to teach our kids when they are young and in school about what these things can do to them. What did I know Brudda, if someone told me to take this pill it will make me strong, I did it. I trusted too much.
Eric: Your autobiography (review) recently came out. What should my readers expect from that book?
Jimmy Snuka: They should expect an exciting book, I cut it loose Brudda. "Everything you wanted to know about "The Superfly" but were afraid to ask" Like that Bra?
Eric: The Superfly is a move that has changed the course of professional wrestling. What inspired you to perform the move for the first time?
Jimmy Snuka: Brudda, I was a cliff diver! I would dive for tourists in the islands. They would throw coins into the ocean and I would dive off the pier, boat, cliff, where ever I was and get the coin before it hit the bottom. Then I would keep it. They wanted to know how I could get it so quick, well that is my secret, Bra. I got many coins and would bring them home to my Mother.
Eric: You were involved in the main event for the first WrestleMania. I always wondered, if Bob Orton didn't suffer a broken arm a month earlier, would the main event of the show have been a six-man tag team match?
Jimmy Snuka: You know Brudda, I don't know but it's a good idea!
Eric: Back in 1985, did you realize just how important WrestleMania was going to be?
Jimmy Snuka: Bra I knew it was a big deal to be in the 1st WrestleMania but never knew it would ever get this big. I did WrestleMania 25th Anniversary a few years ago and what a change. I went to WrestleMania 1 just like I did any other show but what a change now, Wrestlemania is a week long. Last year in Miami Fl, I did the Fan Axxess event and there were so many people there. We had security helping me get from here to there.
Eric: I have to ask you about the coconut incident with Roddy Piper. Who came up with the idea for that episode of Piper's Pit and was the coconut real?
Jimmy Snuka: Bra, you know I still have a headache. Piper is my good Brudda and whenever we get together, we have a great time. I forgave him a long time ago. But I can't really trust him.
Eric: ESPN Classic has been broadcasting old episodes from the AWA. During the era they are showing, your feud with Colonel DeBeers was very controversial because of the racism portrayed in the angle. I was wondering if you ever had deal with any racism behind the scenes?
Jimmy Snuka: Not racism, just jealousy Bra, that is the worst sickness. I never felt that I was different, sure I'm Fijian and proud of my ancestors. Fijian's are strong, proud people.
Eric: The question I am asked most about by my readers is about becoming a wrestler. What advice did you give to your children when they decided to follow in your footsteps?
Jimmy Snuka: Brudda, I get in so much trouble. People come up to me and say they were copying me and broke their beds, chairs, sofas, and one even killed his mother's ferret. I tell everyone don't do what I do, you have to go to school and college and then if you still want to be a wrestler than, train, eat right and go to it.
Eric: Is there anything else you would like for my readers to know?
Jimmy Snuka: I am so happy that I could entertain my fans for so many years. and " I'm not done yet"!! Go get my book and enjoy my story.

According to their meaning, Italian nouns can be divided into various categories. These categories are based on semantic criteria, and each subdivision is different from the others according to certain syntactic properties. The distinctions that follow are those most commonly recognized by grammarians:
- nomi propri (proper nouns) denote a particular individual of a species or category: un essere umano—Carla (a human being), una nazione—Francia (a country), una città—Bergamo (a city)
Italian proper nouns are always written with the initial letter capitalized: Dante Alighieri, Mediterraneo, Venezia. Also always written with a capital letter are:
» soprannomi (nicknames)
Federico I detto il Barbarossa
Michelangelo Merisi detto il Caravaggio
» pseudonimi (pseudonyms)
Alberto Moravia (Alberto Pincherle)
Pietro Metastasio (Pietro Trapassi)
» personified things
La Luna allora le sorrise (The Moon then smiled at her)
NOTE: Italian proper nouns do not require the definite article to identify a specific person or geographical reference: Marco piange.
- nomi comuni (common nouns) denote a generic individual of a species or category: essere umano—bambino, animale—elefante, oggetto—sedia
- nomi individuali (singular nouns) indicate a single being or a single thing: giocatore (player), cavallo (horse), nave (ship)
- nomi collettivi (collective nouns) describe a group of individuals: popolo (a group of human beings), mandria (animals), mobilia (objects)
- nomi concreti (concrete nouns) denote material things perceptible to the senses: uomo (man), leone (lion), strada (street), tavolo (table), albero (tree)
- nomi astratti (abstract nouns) denote feelings, concepts, and qualities that are not directly perceivable through the senses: amore (love), gioia (joy), cattiveria (nastiness), malvagità (wickedness), pace (peace)
The distinction between abstract and concrete nouns is not always clear; for example, it would be difficult to categorize as concrete versus abstract nouns such as sonno (sleep), malessere (malaise), corsa (running), salto (jumping), caduta (falling), arrivo (arrival)—terms that indicate facts that can perceived by the senses, but do not have a material substance. Moreover, many nouns can be either abstract or concrete, according to the context in which they are used. Celebrità is an abstract noun when used in the sense of fame or reputation (raggiungere la celebrità—achieve stardom). It is a concrete noun when it denotes a famous person (è una celebrità nel campo della medicina—she is a celebrity in the field of medicine).
Countable and Uncountable Nouns
Nouns may also be classified on the basis of the concept being referred to:
- nomi numerabili (countable nouns) denote definable entities: sedia (chair), finestra (window), libro (book), penna (pen), matita (pencil)
- nomi non numerabili (uncountable nouns), as opposed to nomi numerabili, denote amorphous substances: acqua (water), vino (wine), sale (salt), colla (glue); or materials considered in general: ferro (iron), legno (wood), gomma (rubber).
» they do not have the plural (in Italian, i latti and i brodi are not correct). The plural versions of such nouns mean something much different: gli zuccheri, i sali (different types of sugar and salt, especially in a technical-scientific context: il fruttosio e il glucosio sono zuccheri semplici; i sali sono composti chimici derivanti dall'unione di un acido con una una base), i ferri (utensils)
» in the singular may be preceded by a few modifiers such as the adverb abbastanza and the indefinite adjectives molto and poco: c'è poco latte; nel caffè non c'è abbastanza zucchero. Countable nouns may be preceded by such modifiers only in the plural: ho molti ombrelli (NOT molto ombrello).
» take the singular partitive article del: vorrei del pane, del prosciutto. Countable nouns take the partitive article only in the plural: dei libri, delle scatole, but not del cucchiaio.
Unclassified Classifications
In some cases, the categories listed may overlap. For example, the distinction between countable and uncountable as regards both concrete and abstract nouns. The latter, denoting entities that cannot be perceived physically and therefore are not easily definable—ingordigia (greed), cattiveria (nastiness), pazienza (patience)—for the most part fall under the category of uncountable nouns. However, some abstract terms, such as opinione (opinion), dispiacere (grief), virtù (virtue), and aspetto (aspect), which indicate concepts more easily definable, can be treated as countable.
Therefore, it's possible to reference nomi non numerabili astratti (uncountable abstract nouns) (intransigenza, calma, tolleranza, coraggio) and nomi numerabili astratti (countable abstract nouns) (vantaggio, parere, qualità). The uncountable abstract nouns share some of the properties of uncountable concrete nouns. For example, use of the indefinite article uno is possible, but involves a shift in meaning (la gioia / una gioia). Furthermore, only countable abstract nouns can be turned into the plural: i dispiaceri, i pareri, le virtù, in contrast to le tolleranze, le pazienze.
Among the nomi collettivi, there are some that behave like countable nouns (mandria, flotta, reggimento) and others (flora, fauna, pubblico) that behave like uncountable nouns. Some nomi collettivi undergo a change of meaning in the plural: il popolo / i popoli; la gente / le genti; la clientela / le clientele.

If you've spent any time reading/listening to psychology, self-help books or gurus, you'll probably have heard it mentioned.
The F-Word.
It's the answer. The key to enlightenment. A necessary part of becoming a better person.
According to these books, if we don't forgive, we eventually turn into balls of rage and seething anger, trapped in a life of inner turmoil and destined to self-implode in a spiral of selfishness and stubborn self-destruction.
Well, I should probably get moving on all that, because:
I Don't Do Forgiveness.
Well, I do do forgiveness, but only for the right people. The people who take responsibility for their actions, the people who will take action to make amends, even if it means facing some tough stuff within themselves.
Even then, there is a 'forgiveness line'. Once someone crosses that, there's no going back. Abusive behaviour crosses this line.
By Abusive, I Mean:
Verbally abusive: name calling, swearing directly at someone (e.g. fuck off) or mocking.
Emotionally abusive: demeaning remarks about someone's height/weight/ethnic background, demeaning remarks about someone's abilities, manipulation and coersion.
Physically abusive: hitting, slapping, pinching, kicking, hair pulling, dragging, shaking. Or, to rephrase it, touching in any way that isn't affectionate or for someone's protection.
Sexually abusive: inappropriate hugging, kissing or touching, inappropriate comments, violation of someone's privacy.
(Of course, there are many more subtle forms of abuse but the above is a basic list.)
None of these behaviours are acceptable to me.
And that's why I don't buy the 'forgiveness for all' approach. There are some people I just don't want to forgive.
What Forgiveness Is
Forgiveness is saying 'Hey, you did something, I was wronged. But it's ok. I don't hold you responsible for your actions now, and I don't feel upset about it anymore.'
Every adult is responsible for their actions. Forgiveness only comes when they have shown that they recognised their actions were wrong and have taken steps to make amends.
Sometimes, Forgiveness Is Dangerous.
Because it's a way of letting ourselves pretend that things weren't really so bad, that we didn't really feel that hurt, or that scared or that angry.
Here's the thing: undeserved forgiveness is not only cruel to you, it's cruel to the perpetrator as well. By forgiving, we are condoning their actions, saying it's OK for them to behave that way. If we don't forgive, if we raise our standards and expect more in retribution; that affects their standards too.
The Bottom Line
Forgiveness has to be earned and it's totally OK not to forgive someone.
There is no 'should' – you can choose to forgive or not, whoever is concerned.
There is such a thing as unforgiveable.
Pretending there isn't is doing ourselves a disservice.
A Few Words From My Pit Of Seething Self-Destruction…
I'm not saying don't forgive anyone ever. There are very, very few people I have chosen not to forgive in my life. These decisions have been deeply considered and very difficult.
However, contrary to popular belief, I'm not dwelling on the decision every day, listening to heavy metal, painting my walls black and spouting rage-filled epithets concerning said people at anyone who will listen.
In some ways, I've achieved what those self-help writers are talking about – I've let go of the bad stuff and I feel good about that. It's just that instead of forgiving, I chose not to forgive. I've moved on with my life, they've moved on with their's… we're just not doing it together. And I'm a stronger person for that.
Do you think forgiveness is necessary for healing? Share your thoughts below.

US Drones Monitoring Killings in Syria
The US Pentagon state that it is sending over drones to gather evidence of the Assad military assault on the Syrian people to make a case against his regime.
The US if flying unmanned planned to fly reconnaissance missions over Syria monitoring and recording the crackdown brutal slaying of Assad's own citizens which doesn't seem to matter much to him in his grasp of power.
The Syrian rebellion which started out as a peaceful protest is now in its 11 th straight month of violence, and the death count may well be up to 3000 people.
Everyday more deaths are recorded by the "military regime and Assad" will fight to the bitter end but so will the rebels who want democracy.
Syria is being aided militarily by the partnership of Iran and Russia which is causing international disagreements throughout the United Nations.
The UN which passed a resolution with 137 countries condemning Assad's assault on unarmed civilians while Russia continues to sell weapons and arms to the dictatorship for a continued extended civil war.
It is certain that Syria represents importance for Russia and Iran to take a stand and help fight against a possible international intervention to remove Assad from power. However, it is the military power in Syria that runs the country as he has stated. As in Egypt when you remove a dictatorship, you must remove the military power.

We were in most of the games this year (lost 8 or 9 by 7 or less). All we need is someone in the organization with an eye for talent and that understands how to build chemistry and a winning attitude. There's the solution.
Now that the colts have won I say we go all in on the suck for luck and build with him. That would give us the elite QB we need. Then get the state to build the darn stadium in Arden Hills and go from there.
I actually feel that our QB situation is one of the only spots we're good at (Wow! Been a long while since I thought that!?!??) But, really, we've got two young guys with a good potential and a decent vet with some experience as our third guy.
But, no QB can do it on their own. Its still a team game and its pretty freaking hard to get yards on offense when you're hitting the ground most every play! I think OL is still our number 1 need. I'm not even sold on Sullivan, and at this point, he's probably our best guy. Hutch is getting up there in years and has been playing semi-injured the past 3 years. McKinnie wasn't great but he was better than Charlie, and who knows what happened to Loadholt but that solid rookie year is looking like a fluke right now. Granted, we were one of the teams hurt most by the lockout and the missed practices due to all the new schemes going in, but come on man! 4th in sacks allowed! Again!?? D'oh!!
And Harvin is best in the slot and/or backfield. He's OK on deep routes but doesn't have the leap or range of Rice, and it shows when we throw deep. Jenkins and Aromashadu might be all right filling one of the outside spots as a tandem, but we really need one true deep threat. Much like fixing LT, a deep threat helps our passing game AND our running game by backing off defenses just a bit.
Secondary has 6 injured guys! OUCH!! (counting Cook as a "head injury"...dumbass!) Griff seems to have lost a step and he's the only starter we have left. But this may require more than just personel upgrades, This is where I think we need a change of scheme...
The zone defense has been at least partially out-dated by the NFL's new focus on "safety." Alot of what makes the zone tick is the big hit. You're not right on the guy covering, but near enough to hit him as the ball does, and hopefully, hard enough to knock it loose. Doesn't look like big hits are allowed anymore, so we may have to adjust to more of a man cover scheme, and that will likely require some new personel.
Its really too bad about Cook, cuz he was sure showing some potential, but now, I think he's probably going to jail.
But, that's the big three. LT, 1 WR, and multiple Secondary. With an early pick every round except the 6th, we should be able to snag a 2 or 3 difference makers in the draft, leaving us to fill 2-3 holes in FA, but if we can hit on a couple of "deals" there, we could possibly compete for the division as soon as next year, and maybe even have more hope for the future as these young guns improve.
SKOL VIKINGS!!! MERRY CHRISTMAS & HOPPY HOLIDAZE PPO!!!Control the line, control the time, and give your D a chance to shine!!
"Balance it on end and thats the third side of the coin!!" -wookiefoot
As far as FB's go most teams covet them but.......there really aren't many good FB's coming out of college....due to the pass oriented game football has turned into...thanks to the rule changes that have handcuffed the defense..None

Media Mash with Brent Bozell: Japan Tsunami Edition
The liberally-biased mainstream media didn't let a catastrophe go to waste, using the Japanese tsunami as an opportunity to suggest, falsely, that Republicans would like to cut the budget for NOAA in such a way that would threaten the Pacific tsunami warning system.
NewsBusters publisher Brent Bozell told the audience of last night's "Hannity":
They're saying Republicans have voted to end tsunami warning centers in Hawaii. The reality is the budget of this agency is $5.6 billion. It's up 25 percent since Obama was elected president. The proposed cuts are $358 million, that's a drop in the bucket. It's not targeted to any specific program with that massive agency.
Bozell and Hannity also addressed the perennial liberal media meme that budget-slashing Republicans are out to "kill" Big Bird and raze Sesame Street:
SEAN HANNITY, Fox News host: Big Bird makes a fortune. He doesn't need any of our [tax] money!
BRENT BOZELL, Media Research Center founder: Sean Hannity, this story is astonishing. And [NBC's] Lisa Myers and [ABC's] Jake Tapper are much better reporters than this. They ought to be ashamed of themselves.
Lisa, Sesame Street is making so much money, not for the taxpayer, by the way, but for the people who own Sesame Street, that if you were to privatize PBS tomorrow, there would be the biggest bidding war you ever saw from the networks to try to get Sesame Street themselves. It is making hundreds of millions of dollars every year in gross merchandising sales.

But NOAA should receive ZERO cuts...
Submitted by lotr on Fri, 03/18/2011 - 12:25pm.
NOAA is benevolent government agency that provides a legitimate host of public services vital for US commerce all for fractions of a penny on the tax dollar. While we are indeed in the midst of an impending debt crisis, it is ludicrous that anyone would propose cuts to a critical science agency that doesn't even make a blip on the radar of the discretionary spending.
If Congress and the President want to get serious, they must turn their attention to serious reform in the runaway mandatory entitlement spending, a certainty brought on by an aging population, which is the fundamental problem. End of story.

I'm not sure how you can call it a 'cut'
Submitted by Now_I_Want_Change on Fri, 03/18/2011 - 1:04pm.Considering the budget for NOAA has gone up by 1.5 Billion (Billion with a B) in the last 2 years, $350 Million is an adjustment. Based my experience as a contractor working with various government agencies, across the board cuts of 15-20% could be made to all agencies without any impact on their efficiency or productivity(?).

"cut the budget for
Submitted by Apache on Fri, 03/18/2011 - 1:24pm."cut the budget for NOAA" Don't they get their forecast from Weather.com? j/k Btw, why does Drudge now link to hacks like PrisonPlanet and InfoWars? Alex Jones is never skeptical of a conspiracy, especially if he can call attention to himself.

Submitted by brutony1 on Fri, 03/18/2011 - 1:40pm.Why doesnt Sean let Brent talk more? Why cant he shut up for once?

MSM's Unscrupulous Exploitation of Tragedy
Submitted by Boil It Down on Sat, 03/19/2011 - 12:50am.
The maddening part of the MSM's dishonest and partisan exploitation of the catastrophes in Japan is that it's not unique to their mode of operation. In fact, it is glaringly apparent that manipulating tragedies in order to pander to a political entity or philosophy is required of them. It makes me wonder how there can be that many reprehensible people gathered together in a profession that should be looking out for our best interests.
Add to this that the causes they've taken up are fallacious and it makes them just that more deplorable. They are backing the further looting of taxpayer dollars, which pits them against the public rather than fulfilling their responsibilities as journalists to protect us.
I think it is worth mentioning that all these unscrupulous and undeserving occupiers of journalistic employment are culpable in the damage Obama and the Democrats have perpetrated on our Republic. It saddens me that they will never be held accountable except perhaps in history's record in the future.

Contribution Margin
Loading the player...
Contribution margin is the difference between sales revenue and variable cost. It allows a company to determine the profitability of individual products by measuring how sales affect profits. In its ratio form, it is calculated as Contribution Margin ÷ Sales Revenue.
While revenue from a company's product is how much money the company makes from selling that item, a product's variable costs include those expenses that vary depending on the company's production volume.
