First Leak Of Android Wear Running G Watch!
We have two really exciting products coming from Motorola and LG later this year that will bring Android Wear to the masses. Till now we had no idea about exactly would it look like running on the watches.
Today we have a leak coming in from a German media company that has got it's hands on the LG G watch. In the brief duration there is a bit of software shown off, the build of the software is far from complete and it does look pretty neat, navigation was very smooth and without any buttons indeed, the device responded to gestures pretty well, take a look :
This does make us very hopeful about an extremely stable and reliable platform for smartwatches, something that no manufacturer has been able to achieve yet. With rumors of a possible iWatch around the corner, which one will you place your bet on?
LG G3 To Have A 2TB MicroSD Card Slot?!
It's about launch day, and we have rumors still pouring in. This latest version comes from the specs that are extracted from LG UK's site for the model D855 that suggest that it could carry a 2TB microSD slot.
We have just got a handful of devices that support microSD cards upto 128GB and 2 TB is honestly just massive. Also, looks like there aren't many 2 TB cards out there that one can really purchase. The unit listed on LG's site shows 2GB of RAM and 16GB of memory, while the leaked slides from Korea we saw earlier suggested 3GB / 32GB. So, it looks like there definitely could be two variants of the device.
We shall keep you posted incase LG surprises us tomorrow!
The 3 Big Features Of The LG G3!
Come May 27, we will be seeing the all new LG G3 and we probably know almost everything about the phone, but not from the mouth of the manufacturer, until now.
LG has just spilled the beans and rolled out 3 videos teasing, more than showing the features of the new smartphone. There are rumors of a plastic and a metal version launching side-by-side.
Display :
The display has been confirmed, a 5.5inch QHD display with an insanely high pixel dense screen is what we are looking at.
The design is expected to be plastic for the majority of the part, LG would as usual would select a fancy texture, one that is more metal like is what we are looking at.
The video regarding the LG G3 camera is short, but it confirms that the company has armed the flagship 13MP snapper with a laser auto-focus system. It is designed to help the G3 make better shots at night and focus faster.
Is there anything else you wish the G3 would come with?
Could The LG G3 Be The Hottest Phone Of This Year?
These high resolution images align properly with the leaks suggested earlier. These shots are apparently press renders of the LG G3 and the phone is suggested to come in three colors as seen in the pictures below – white,gold, grey and they have this look that can make our jaw drop.
Overall the layout of the LG G3 is very identical to the LG G2 The phone is scheduled to officially launch on May 27 besides the first Android Wear powered smartwatch – the G Watch. Indeed the excitement is building up. The specifications expected are : a 5.5″ inch QHD display with a Snapdragon 801 processor , 3GB of RAM and a 13MP camera.
Let us know if you are excited for the G3, as always we promise to have you covered from day one!
Best Look At LG's G Watch Yet!
LG has already dropped the date, May 27 – which is two weeks from now is when the company shall be announcing two new and exciting devices – the LG G Watch and the LG G3.
With a 2K display and a top of the line processor, and a mysterious LASER on the back, the LG G3 is sure to be an all round stunner but as we near the launch day, we get very clear hints of what the G watch will be like. Well it is quite obvious that the G watch will be having everyone's attention since it would be the first wearable to feature Android wear which Google has announced but not completely revealed yet.
The highlight features of the watch we learn seem to be the following :
- An always on display.
- Long lasting battery life.
- Metal chassis.
- Compatible with all device running Android 4.2 and above.
- Waterproof.
Will you be skipping the Galaxy Gears for the upcoming G Watch?
LG G3 In Gold, With A Laser Spotted !
When it rains news and rumors for LG it just doesn't stop, now that LG has decided to make it official on 27th May, it is much obvious that tippers and leaks have a frenzy of buzz going in the news.
Till now we do know that LG is make doing with it's plastic back panels and opting for a more premium brushed finish backs that do look really high quality in these leaks. What is also worth noticing is those bezels that were so thin on the G2, now are almost non-existent and we definitely can't take our eyes off the front-side.
The back keys are more recessed and look much plush with the body and there seems to be a mystery sensor on the power button, turns out LG is actually planning to put a Laser inside it! Crazy right, turns out this is to make low light focusing better, lets see how it turns out.
Best Look At An Unannounced LG G3!
Now that LG has officially marked May 27 as the day when they would be announcing the G3, it was about time that some real world shots of the upcoming smartphone surface, and that is exactly what we have here.
These shots give us the best look at the phone we have had till date, right away we must say that the design doesn't look bad at all but again LG doesn't want to play bold and instead is playing it safe with something that they know has worked for them earlier. The specs of the G3 include a 5.5 inch QHD screen with 3GB of RAM and a 3000mAh removable battery.
We must say that the device doesn't look huge when considering how big the screen is actually said to be courtesy of those tiny bezels .
Do You Like This LG G3 UI Better Than The S5′s TouchWiz?!
The LG G3 is rumored to feature a QHD 2560*1600 Display and this time too LG is planning to catch up at places where Samsung has missed out with their flagship Galaxy S5.
As quoted by the source on GSMArena :
The title "You may want to take an umbrella since rain is expected during this afternoon" on the first screenshot is in fact a new feature.
It intends to provide weather notifications with an easy to communicate and human touch. A trend that lot of manufacturers are embracing is the implementation of clean, flat UI elements and LG seems to have integrated their new Optimus UI with Android Kitkat very well on that end.
Are you looking forward to the G3? Also, tell us if you like LG's approach better than Samsung's.
KitKat Coming To Your Verizon Galaxy S4 & LG G2!
We accept it, it's painful to wait while you know that it has been months since the latest Android version has been announced but your carrier hasn't been giving any hint of it. Seems like Verizon is ready to fix all that with official updates to the 2 flagships of 2013, the Galaxy S4 and the LG G2.
Verizon has been a slouch when it comes to update, but if if they really start rolling out updates the day the leak suggests, then things might change afterall. The G2′s update file is 2GB in size, but no details on the S4 one. It's wise to sit tight for now and wait till the over the air updates start making devices pop on Verizon!
LG G3 Will Be Available In Gold, Confirms 2K Display!
The LG G2 recently got a gold variant immediately indicating how badly the company wanted to join the "Gold" game. So this time they start early, the LG G3 will be available in gold since launch time!
Compared to the G2′s box, the LG brand is more prominent than before. There is also a Global Mobile awards shout-out at the bottom, which we assume is in reference to LG picking up Most Innovative Device Manufacturer of the Year. Also adding to that, when asked about the rumored 2K, LG confirmed that the device would indeed be carrying a 2560*1600 resolution display.

I may take you up on your offer as the guild im in is dead and the only active players are myself and my brother. Amusingly I'm guild leader because I was so active at one point but I must admit that even I've stopped playing right now.

As of late, the Illinois Fighting Illini have been putting in some much needed early work in on the 2016 recruiting class. On Wednesday, the Illini continued that hard work by extending an offer towards 2016 offensive guard John Raridon.
Illinois is the sixth team and fourth Big Ten team to offer at Raridon. Currently, he has offers from Illinois, Iowa, Iowa State, Nebraska, Oklahoma, and Wisconsin.
He has named an early favorite, but it seems as though the West Des Moines offensive guard is leaning towards the Nebraska Cornhuskers.
So far, Raridon has made multiple unofficial visits to Lincoln, Nebraska.
Right now, the 247Sports Crystal Ball has John Raridon playing his college ball in the Big Ten, but not for the Illinois Fighting Illini.
The majority (80%) of the experts predict the Cornhuskers to land the 2016 recruit while 20% of the experts predict Iowa to steal him away.
One thing is clear when it comes to the past few offensive linemen that the Fighting Illini have offered at as of late. That is that Tim Beckman and company are looking to add beef to their O-line.
The past few offensive linemen to receive offers from Illinois have been 6'5″+ and 275+pounds. John Raridon doesn't fit the mold perfectly at 6'4″, 160 pounds, but he's too much of a talent to pass up.
The five-star recruit is currently ranked 1st in the state of Iowa, 1st among offensive guards, and 33rd among 2016 high school recruits by 247Sports.

Eco-Rep Update: End-of-Year Festivities!
April 28, 2014 – 1:17 pm
-by Savannah Christiansen
The Eco-Reps are closing out the year in celebration of sustainability! We had a successful clothing swap at Earthfest on April 11th on the Academic Quad and many students walked away with new styles in hand. Why have a clothing swap anyway? Manufacturing new textiles can put a pretty heavy burden on the planet in terms of the amount of resources needed for manufacturing the fabric, putting it together and then shipping them to retail locations. Clothing swaps are an easy way for people to share existing clothing without using up any new resources!
We spoke with potential future students at Jumbo days on April 17th, 18th and 25th about the Eco-Rep program and the Office of Sustainability and encouraged students to keep their college move-in green with tips such as bringing reusable mugs to campus, using power strips and many more that you can check out here.
On Sunday, April 28th the Reps enjoyed an end of the year celebration with sushi and bouncy castles on Fletcher Field. Wren Hall also got to participate in the festivities for winning Recyclemania. We hope all of our residents are ready to look out for us next year with more composting, in-dorm campaigns, eco events and more. See you then Tufts!
Eco-Rep Update: Where We Eat, Live, and Play
April 23, 2014 – 2:38 pm
The environment can be defined in many ways but my favorite is: where we eat, live, and play. I think it makes a lot of sense because the environment is not some abstract concept but our very surroundings, where we live, eat, study, and go to class. Our environment is Tufts! And it is undeniable that we love to keep our campus pretty. So it makes me wonder where the resources come from to keep our environment in tip top shape, the people who work here, and where our waste goes? What does it take to keep our environment clean?
Tufts does a great job of working to make Tufts a sustainable living space. However there are many improvements we can make as a community to ensure the impact we make is equitable and fair. In my Environmental Justice and World Literature class, we spoke about the many privileges we have of living in such a healthy environment and the disproportionate cost that can have on communities around us. We took a survey to see if we know for example, where our trash goes, where the salt we use to melt ice is stored, when the workers who help with upkeep of our environment come to work and where they live.
These are important questions to ask to understand how we affect our communities that surround Tufts and better understand the impacts we have. For starters, the salt is stored in Chelsea, and our waste is incinerated in Saurgus. These are communities that have been historically disproportionately affected by industries and have lower economic mobility. It is easy to think about the invisible processes that create the space we live in when we don't always have to deal with them. Our trash and snow don't just disappear off campus. I am sure we can all remember the incredible workers who came to shovel snow off our roads to help make it safer for us to get to class at 3 AM in the morning, working in the biting cold.
This coming week, on Monday the 28th, the students in the Environmental Justice and World Literature class are holding an event to increase awareness of these issues of how our living practices at Tufts affect our surrounding communities. Hopefully, once we start thinking about the effects we have on other communities, we can start thinking about how to decrease these impacts. Knowledge is empowering and I hope that it will empower us to make the changes we should to promote sustainability at home and our surrounding communities!

Coming up on the one year anniversary of the most significant Christchurch Earthquake, I thought I would post a colourised and digitally touched up version of my comic that appeared in Darkest Day: Comics For Christchurch – a comics anthology that was released last year. All proceeds from the comic go to the Red Cross Christchurch Appeal. You may still be able to get it here (though the site seems to be down) or you can still donate to the Red Cross appeal.

A Hero of Our Time
Synopses & Reviews
Traveling through the wilds of the Caucasian Mountains, a young man makes the acquaintance of Maxim Maximych, an experienced soldier and veritable raconteur. As they take refuge from the harsh wintry conditions, Maximych begins to tell the scandalous history of his one-time companion Pechorin, a self-confessed rake. Talented and highly intelligent, Pechorin is nevertheless weary of the world and all it has to offer. Cynical in the extreme, he can muster no other motivation than the avoidance of boredom. To this end, he embarks upon a series of Byronic exploits. Whether kidnapping the daughter of a local chieftain, organizing a smuggling ring, fighting duels, toying with fate, or capturing the hearts of beautiful society women, he remains entirely immune from any depth of emotion. This inspired study of a man and a society in crisis reveals the archetypal antihero not only of the Russian novel but of world literature.

-0-The Holiday SeasonChris Byrnes' Time to Play Hot Holiday Toys 2012Chris Byrne, The Toy GuyTime to Play Magazine229 West 28th Street, Suite 401New York, NY 10001www.timetoplaymag.comChris Byrne, the "Toy Guy" and Time to Play have been tracking store sales since early October and talking to retailers in order to give viewers the inside track on 10 toys you should order today, if you want to get them for your kids this holiday season. This season's hottest toys cover a wide variety of products, from high tech to basic play, suggesting that a good toy is one that inspires engaging play.
Here is Chris Byrnes' TIME TO PLAY HOT HOLIDAY TOYS 2012:
LeapFrog LeapPad 2 Explorer (LeapFrog) -- The LeapPad was the #1 toy last year and has been selling out consistently all year, making the Time to Play Most Wanted List. The new version is sturdier, has twice the memory, better performance, and front and rear cameras for the same $99 of the original. This has emerged as the iPad for kids. Chris got more calls in December last year from people desperate to find this toy than at any time since Tickle Me Elmo in 1996.
Furby (Hasbro) -- Furby is back and better than ever. Hasbro has really gotten the technology right. He's more interactive, more amusing and more engaging than ever. Plus there's even an iPod or iPhone App that you can use with him to expand the play. According to Walmart, Furby is one of the top toys that people are putting on layaway and is also on the Time to Play Most Wanted List.
Monster High High School Playset (Mattel) -- Another hot layaway item, the Monster High High School Playset is the first dollhouse for the super-hot Monster High dolls, which continue to be one of the hottest fashion dolls out there. It's got the ghoulishly good humor of the line, including a "basketball court" and coffin lockers as well as an innovative fold-up design.
Crayola Digital Light Designer (Crayola) -- This digital designer lets kids draw with light and a touch-sensitive stylus and is a stand-alone unit that lets kids explore color, technology and animation. The Crayola Digital Light Designer reflects the trend seen over the past couple of years that combine electronics with arts and crafts.
ZX Crossbow (Zing) -- Introduced earlier this year, the Zing Crossbow has been so popular that retailers can't keep it in stock. People love the soft, safe fun and the action-packed play.
NERF Elite Hail Fire (Hasbro) -- Another huge hit on the Time to Play Most Wanted List, the NERF Elite Hail Fire has the ability to shoot up to 144 darts rapid fire. You've never seen a NERF battle like this!LaDeeDa (Spin Master) -- This is a big year for fashion dolls, and the LaDeeDa collections show all the signs of being a breakout hit. Not only are they gorgeous dolls, they also inspire girls to be creative in their own right. These are appealing to slightly older, slightly more sophisticated girls who have a great, whimsical fashion sense.
Perplexus Twist (PlaSmart) -- The original Perplexus Epic and Rookie puzzles have been sell outs in the specialty market. These hard-to-put-down puzzles are appealing to those who love a challenge and parents who appreciate its great value pricing.
Micro Chargers (Moose) -- Micro cars are another huge trend this year. Exclusive to Toys "R" Us, Micro Chargers have a unique charging system that revs the cars and then sends them racing on tracks. With two different versions for stunts and speed and a high level of collectibility, this toy is racing off shelves.
Skylanders Construction Sets (MEGA) -- For fans of the Skylanders game, a huge hit in the video game arena, these construction sets are a new way for fans and young kids to get into the excitement of the game. This toy also made the Time to Play Most Wanted List. As director of content for "Time To Play," Chris Byrne brings 29 years of industry experience in the toy industry to his role as a researcher, analyst and consultant with New York-based Byrne Communications. He has worked with a variety of Fortune 100 companies tracking kid trends, product development and strategic marketing campaigns and is regularly sourced by the investment community for insights into all aspects of the toy industry.

EXCLUSIVE: Lidl coming to Nailsea as part of £10 million investment
By Carol_Deacon | Wednesday, November 21, 2012, 19:57
A massive £10 million investment for Nailsea including a new discount supermarket was revealed at a traders meeting this week by the town centre landlords.
Lidl is coming to Nailsea as part of a £10 million revamp of town centre
A close up of the site plan showing where the new Lidl store will go at Stockway South
From left councillor Jeremy Blatchford, commercial lettings boss Ian Thompson, town centre landlord Mark Robinson and chamber of trade chairman Janet Hendey
The new Lidl store together with a small single-storey retail unit on the old petrol filling site would face Stockway South and create 50 jobs for the town, said Ellandi partner Mark Robinson, the management company for Crown Glass Shopping Centre.
Mr Robinson said he very much hoped Majestic wine company will move into the new single-story unit and other specialist businesses would take the opportunity of low costs rents being offered on the empty smaller units at Collier's Walk.
Mr Robinson said: "All this will put Nailsea in the position of a 'go to' place."
However, Nailsea would lose 67 car parking spaces at Stockway South and half a dozen protected trees if the proposals go ahead.
The entrance to the main car park would change with a smaller 12 spaces on a roundabout between the pizza takeway and wine shop.
The old boarded-up Sycamore House care home will be redeveloped into a smart warden-controlled complex for the elderly and its green space in front will become an enhanced amenity area planted with additional saplings to replace those lost by the new development.
The proposed Lidl at 15,000 sq ft will be more than twice the size of the Iceland store at 7,000 sq ft but will be dwarfed by the Waitrose and Tesco supermarkets which are both approximately 45,000 sq ft.
A detailed planning application is likely to be submitted to North Somerset Council in the spring next year and if given the go-ahead the project is likely to be completed within 12-18 months.
The declining economic situation scuttled a previous plan of attracting Sainsbury's to Nailsea and building at the end of Christ Church Close where the library and deserted Weston College complex stand.
More than 50 community leaders and business people attended the Tuesday open evening to hear about the plans which were prompted by a Mary Portas-style report commissioned earlier this year.
Under the umbrella of Team Nailsea – made up of the chamber of trade and commerce, shopping centre bosses and the town council - research group AMT-i was appointed to carry out a survey to see what action can be taken to bolster trade.
People using the town centre said the number of charity shops needed to be reduced, empty shops filled and the variety of shops increased as well as the physical appearance of the main shopping area enhanced.
They concluded the continuation of free car parking in the centre was essential to keep trade alive.
Nailsea Town Council chairman Rod Lees said: "This has got to be good for the whole town - it is fantastic."
North Somerset councillor Jeremy Blatchford said he knew many high-flyers who were choosing to swap the city to move to Nailsea for a better lifestyle.
He said: "Nailsea is an exciting place to live and shop and with this investment we are seeing a vision being delivered."
The open evening was hosted at Sion House which Ellandi had just finished upgrading at a cost of more than £250,000.
The distinctive blue four-storey building which was built more than a quarter of a century ago has been fitted with new double glazed windows, upgraded reception area and staircases, improved staff facilities to include a ground floor shower and cycle racks, new toilet furnishings on all floors, improved energy efficient lighting and a new lift.
Since the refit letting agent Ian Thompson, of Thompson Commercial has successfully found tenants for most of the office suites, said Mr Robinson.
He added: "The image and branding of the shopping centre is well overdue for a refresh and that's something we are going to bring forward in the new year.
"We are keen that the shopping centre isn't seen as separate from the High Street and other retail areas of the town.
"Nailsea is one of the best performing towns in our group and every single new national retailer has decided to stay - they are all making money which doesn't happen in a lot of places.
"We will be delighted to foster specialist new businesses rent free if someone wants to open a butcher's, artisan bakers or a deli which will add to a vibrant shopping centre."
Nailsea Chamber of Trade and Commerce chairman Janet Hendey spoke about the combined effort to stop car parking charges being introduced in the town and the diverse make up of the chamber which includes representatives of multi-nationals, small businesses, retailers and those from professional services including both medical centres in the town.
Mrs Hendey, a partner at Wards solicitors said: "It is very good news for Nailsea that the shopping centre owners see it as a town worth investing in with a positive future; the proposed new development will bring a considerable amount of new employment to the town which will benefit everyone in the long run."
Mr Thompson said: "Retailers like Waitrose, WH Smith and Wetherspoons who have all opened in the past 18 months tell me they are all trading above expectations."
Crown Glass Shopping Centre has a total of 90,000 sq ft of retail space divided into 40 separate shops, a further 40,000 sq ft of office space in various buildings and 40 flats.
At this time only four shops are available to let as a further three vacant units are still leased to William Hill, Peacocks and Going Places

Posted May 28, 2010
After a full review of our school program this Spring, 2010, the Accrediting Commission for Schools (ACS) of the Western Association of Schools and Colleges (WASC) has granted our school a renewed Accreditation term of six years.
Lakewood Christian School (LCS) is a fabulous educational institution. Our oldest son has been attending the school for a couple of years and our other son will be starting this Fall. The teachers and administrators are very dedicated and truly love what they do. The curriculum allows for much teacher-student interaction. It is a high-paced learning environment, but the small classroom size (usually no more than 20 students) allow for a lot of individualized time. The projects and field trips are well integrated with the curriculum. LCS also does a great job of keeping parents informed through their weekly electronic newsletter and parents web.
Lakewood Christian School on Arbor Rd. is where you want to be if you are interested in providing your children an education, engagement and enrichment for intellectual, spiritual and social development. The principal greets parents and students in the mornings to start the day off right. There is art, choir, handbells, music, sports, computer and much more. Our kids have thrived on every level with mindful guidance from teachers who are true gems and deeply care about the art and science of teaching kids. The teacher know how to make learning fun and rewarding, with a keen eye on academic achievement and spiritual growth. I have checked out a wide variety of public, private and secular curriculums - Lakewood Christian School tops the list for solid school and community values, goals, and spirit.
I've taught at Lakewood Christian School for the last 7 years and I have never worked in a more positive, supportive, encouraging environment. Everyone on staff cares deeply for their students and is like minded in their mission to help them grow academically, spiritually and socially. This was my last year at LCS because my husband and I are moving to teach at an international school. I will miss this place incredibly and I thank God for allowing me to work here in my formative years as a teacher.
My son joined Lakewood Christian Middle School two years ago. LCS stands out as a very special place. We saw strong teacher/student relationships, small class sizes and a highly committed Principal. My husband and I are very happy with our experience at LCS. The teachers are highly qualified in their curricular areas and they are always available for the students relationally and academically. The group of middle school kids is special. As different as they all are, they treat each other with respect and love. There has not been a day I drop my son and his friends off at school where I don't feel thankful and satisfied knowing he's walking into a positive, nurturing environment. Academically, he is being well-prepared to move on to either public or private high school. Two other areas that stand out as extremely special are the smaller classes where all students are respectful of their teachers and the huge array of electives available each year to the students. I would highly recommend LCS to any parent looking for a positive Christ-centered environment for their middle school student.
Our family has been enrolled at LCS for 7 years. The teachers never cease to amaze us. They really become a part of our family. Who we trust our precious children with on a daily basis is one of the most vital decisions a parent can make. At LCS, this decision is not only easy, but brings a peace that is priceless. The cost of private school can mean some sacrifices for our family, but one we gladly make every year. Our peace of mind and the love, nurturing and godly influence our children receive is worth far more than the annual tuition. There is much to be concerned about in the raising of children, but where they spend their days and what they are hearing in the classroom is not one for our family. God has clearly blessed the school with academic greatness, yes, but more importantly, with a staff who has a love for His children. I strongly encourage anyone seeking a private school that truly serves the Lord, to look no further than Lakewood Christian Schools.
Lakewood Christian Schools is a remarkable place to be. I am a parent of two children who have attended the school since preschool....my son is just finishing up his 6th grade year and my daughter is about to graduate from kindergarten. My husband and I pray yearly about sending our children the LCS and each year He keeps us coming back. This school has bought so much joy to my children, myself and our family. LCS has helped to instill in our children how to love others, great leadership skills, biblical values, reading, writing and many more excellent attributes. I have been apart of my children's education from day one buy volunteering, serving on PTF ( Parent Teacher Fellowship) , helping in our annual school events such as In N Out Day, Book Fair, Talent Show, Skate Depot Night and so much more. I would have does these thing for my children at any other school but with LCS, I LOVE to do them! We are family and I am proud to be apart of it with my children. The staff and administration have always come along side us as parents with love and support. I would highly recommend LCS to anyone looking for a school that is centered around the love of Christ.
This is my daughters first year at LCS and she loves the many options she has for electives and she has also excelled academically at this school. However, socially she has not connencted. I agree with the comment posted on 4.3.12 regarding social ostracism and that teachers at LCS do not address that issue. My daughter has also complained about favortism towards certain students due to their personal circumstances. I want my daughter to not only like her her classes but enjoy going to school there becuase of the staff and fellow students and unfortunately this is not the case.
The LCS middle school provides the academic foundation my child will need to excel in high school and beyond. The teachers are responsive to students and parents. The principal Mrs. Barton is accessible. The school would rate 5 stars, but the staff needs to be more attuned the teasing or the social ostracism that happens and be more pro-active in addressing the issue, particularly in a Christian environment. Overall, it's a high quality school and most kids will have an enjoyable experience at LCS.
Our daughter has been attending LCS since preschool, and now she is going to graduate 8th grade this year. We have loved every year. She is so prepared for high school, but we are really going to miss this school. Her teachers have been wonderful every year. She has learned so much and been so loved. We have appreciated how the teachers have partnered with us in raising our child. She has had so many great electives in middle school and she really loved being in drama club and choir, as well as getting an excellent academic education. Thank you, LCS!!
LCS was such an AMAZING school. I went there for 9 years, from kindergarten to 8th grade. i just graduated last June. The small size of the school was great because you got to know all your teachers and friends really well. it felt more like a big family than a school. I love lcs and i miss it a lot
My daughter has attended Lakewood Christian Elementary School for the past four years and absolutely loves it! I could not imagine sending her to another school. Every year we have been blessed with teachers that strive to provide her with the best education possible. They communicate openly and work with parents to meet the individual needs of each student. I have always been impressed by the kindness and Christ-like attitude of the all of the staff. The diversity of the school s student and staff population has given my daughter the opportunity to interact with a variety of different people. The administration truly cares about all students regardless of ethnic or cultural background and actively demonstrates the love of Christ to everyone. I have recommended the school to many other parents.
We came to Lakewood Christian School 2 years ago - coming in from a public school, and have children in both the elementary and middle school. We are so very thankful for this school and the educational/moral foundation they are helping our children to build. The academics are phenominal and the extra programs (music, art, sports, etc.) are all top notch!! We appreciate the multicultural dynamic of staff/students and love the feel that we are all one big family. I would encourage anyone looking for a good school to visit LCS - you will not find a better school!
Love this school curriculum, standards etc... BUT there is no diversity on the staff or administration. The atmosphere for hispanic or african american kids may be a little uncomfortable, as a mother when I am there I sense a little undertoned racism from the play ground staff to teachers and administration.
My son has been attending Lakewood Christian since Kindergarten and he is currently in 3rd grade. He absolutely loves it. He is doing so well and his little sister will be starting Kindergarten in the fall. Our family is so pleased with the staff and leadership at LCS. It isn't just a school but a family. Everyone is super supportive and loving. We can't say enough great things about LCS.
This isn't a school, it's a family :) i've gone here since kindergarten and i'm completely crushed that i'm graduating. The teachers have always been loving and caring, well except my 1st grade teacher, but she left that year, we just had different views i guess XD i couldnt imagine going to any other school. people worry that its too small but really it makes it easier and you feel more connected to eachother. its too much wonderfulness to describe in a post, you have to be there. and the teachers are so cool, i love them , they make it so you want to go to school. And my friends are the best friends i've ever had, i cant imagine what i'd do without them :)
My son came from another private school that I thought was great at the time. Now that we are at Lakewood Christian I no longer think that. This school is absolutely amazing. From the teachers to the executive staff are aboslutely wonderful. Lots of parent teacher interaction with great music and sports programs. This school is at the top of my list of schools I visited during my school search.
I am a new student in 6th grade from out of state and I love Lakewood Christian. The middle school principal, Mrs. Barton is, by far, the best principal I've ever had, and I've had five total. When I took the tour a few days before I started, all the students and Mrs. Barton made me extremely welcome, and on the first day, all of the sixth graders, + some seventh and eighth graders, came up to me and showed me around, and became my friends. All the students are very kind and the teachers alI make school interesting and fun. I always look forward to going to school and being surrounded by people who care about me so much. I love Lakewood Christian. Go LCS Bears!
After an ultimately disheartening experience at a top-rated public school in our area, we decided last year to send our daughter to fourth grade at FBCOLS and to start our son there in kindergarten. The pre-school, which both children had attended, is superb, and we were desperate to find a place where not only academics were important, but also focus was placed on the whole child and on creating a safe and happy place for our children to thrive. Truly, we cannot stress how pleased we have been since making this decision: a day has not gone by on which we are not thankful for the wonderful experience our children have had. Teachers are enthusiastic, organized, and caring; the music program is excellent--creative, inclusive, and fun; children are encouraged to be good citizens; activities create a sense of belonging among all grades; even P.E. is outstanding. This is a great school.
I just love this school! The teachers are outstanding! They are kind and loving to all the children. This school offers so many wonderful extras for the children to learn. The art program is amazing. All the staff at this school does a great job making the kids feel really good about themselves. I highly recommend this school both spiritually and academically.
FBCOLS is a first rate Christian school where both of my kids received a top notch education from Kindergarten through graduation. There is a strong academic emphasis with Biblical truths intertwined throughout the day. My daughter has gone on to an accelerated public high school program and is at the top of her classes. She has thanked her FBCOLS teachers for doing such a fantastic job of preparing her for high school and life in general. The students, parents, and staff at FBCOLS are like a big family. There is a lot of parent involvement that the teachers welcome with open arms. I encourage you to take a tour of FBCOLS, and I m sure you ll feel the warm atmosphere for yourself as you witness strong academics, music, and sports in progress.

Following discussions on 25-26 June 2004, the participants in the US-EU Financial Markets Regulatory Dialogue have agreed to "promote international convergence of accounting standards, including their consistent application, implementation, and enforcement".
The Accounting Regulation adopted by the European Union requires that European companies listed in a regulated European securities market must prepare their financial statements in conformity with International Financial Reporting Standards starting in 2005. Subsequent legislation provides that non-European companies whose securities are listed in a regulated European securities market must also follow IFRSs starting in 2007 unless the Commission has agreed, prior to 1 January 2007, to recognise financial statements prepared in accordance with "third country GAAP" (a non-European national GAAP) as being equivalent to those prepared in accordance with IFRSs.

Johann Wolfgang von Goethe (28 August 1749 - 22 March 1832), commonly known as "Goethe", was a German poet, novelist, philosopher, and scientist who is considered one of the giants of the literary world. In addition, aside from being lawyer and known also as a dramatist, humanist, theorist, and painter, he is also one of few individuals considered to have been a polymath. For ten years, he was chief minister of state for the duchy of Weimar. In 1782 he was ennobled as 'von Goethe'. In his 1809 masterpiece Elective Affinities, he became one of the first to speculate on the nature of interpersonal chemistry. Goethe was one of the key figures of German literature and the movement of Weimar Classicism in the late 18th and early 19th centuries; this movement coincides with Enlightenment, Sentimentality ("Empfindsamkeit"), Sturm und Drang, and Romanticism. The author of Faust and Theory of Colours, he influenced Darwin with his focus on plant morphology. Goethe's influence spread across Europe, and for the next century his works were a primary source of inspiration in music, drama, poetry, and philosophy. He is widely considered to be one of the most important thinkers in Western culture.

Well, game six didn't go as Colorado planned as Minnesota came away with the 5-2 win, padding the lead late with a couple of empty-net goals. Now the two teams head into game seven, looking to advance to the next round and take on the Chicago Blackhawks.
Even though the score looked like the Wild controlled the game, it wasn't like that. Colorado actually played very well, better than they had in the prior two games in the Xcel Energy Center. The addition of Matt Duchene certainly helped as the center made his first appearance of the 2014 Stanley Cup Playoffs after being out since Mar. 29th with an MCL injury. His speed may not be up to par with what it usually is, but he made a difference on the power-play unit. Matt would record his first point of the playoffs on an assist to teammate Nick Holden in the second period.
Also, even though Colorado was down 2-0 in the first period, the team didn't lose their step. They answered back with two unanswered goals from Paul Stastny on the short-handed attempt and Nick Holden in the second period to tie it up. They did a much better job of getting shot on Wild goaltender Darcy Kuemper, tying the Wild in shots on goal with 23.
Colorado now has the ultimate advantage of all, back at home in Denver with home-ice advantage. They are currently 3-0 at home during this series with the Wild, opposed to 0-3 on the road in St. Paul.

Contemporary porn seems to be all about anal gaping, vaginal fisting, choking on cocks, and slapping each other around mid-coitus. What happened to the good old days of Billy Wilder movies and war bonds and Betty Grable's sumptuous figure plastered on the side of a fighter jet? Cease your endless searching, soldiers, 'cause Mr. Pink has found a site for tired eyes. Pin-Up Wow takes sweet and innocent British women and turns them into coyly seductive, naively sensual paragons of the retro pin-up style. Clearly a site for gentleman and sophisticates, Pin-Up Wow is a visual treat that truly spans the decades.
Looking for lesbian porn that rivals Monster Cock Face-Fuckers for a rowdy roll in the proverbial cyberhay? Well, look no further than 21Sextury's token lesbian hardcore site, Dirty 101. Full of European sluts doing what they do best (with each other!), Dirty 101 offers pussy-pounding, asshole-stretching, clit-tickling lesbian hardcore at its finest. It's just a pity the site seems to be having some major problems right now...
When you're as obviously gifted as porno legend, Lex Steele, fucking for a living might not seem like such a big deal. For those readers considering giving Lex their hard-earned money, however, it's a very big deal indeed. Does Lex's official online hangout impress as much as his infamous member? Are the women adequately skilled and equipped enough to handle such a load? All these questions and more will be answered in this, Mr. Pink's third look at Lex's site. One thing is for sure, though, even at this early stage: prepare to be thoroughly amazed by the biggest, baddest cock in porn.
You're fumbling around the Internet, reading Mr. Pink's reviews in the hope of finding a porn site worthy of your financial attention; a site that brings you thousands upon thousands of hardcore scenes in varying niche styles, hundreds of the world's best pornstars giving their all, and all for a very reasonable price. Well, folks, that site could very well be Porn Access, a network of more than a thousand smaller sites, each offering something exciting and intriguing, and all for just $5 a month (with Mr. Pink's discount). Be warned, though: sailing through Porn Access is nowhere near as smooth as you might hope.
At Barely Legal, the online equivalent of the infamous magazine of the same name, you'll find a bevy of delightful young creatures who are all now 18 and ready to prove their maturity with a little hardcore porn. More cute and flirtatious than Lexi Belle's Twitter feed after a few Vodka Red Bulls, the young women of Barely Legal provide their adoring fans with plenty of hardcore sex videos and photo galleries, and a good assortment of softer stuff, too. What's stopping you from heading inside and scoping it all out right now? You need the lowdown from Mr. Pink, of course, so strap yourself in and let's tackle the tasty teens of Barely Legal.
Trading in the porn-standard facials, pearl necklaces, and oral injections of milky white spooge for vaginal creampies, Teen Pies sees porn's most promising young starlets lean back, spread their legs, and work their pussies into a most accepting state of readiness. Fucked then filled by some studly young fellas, the Teen Pies girls let the cum seep from their snatches, rubbing it in or dipping their fingers for a taste, and let the Team Skeet crew's cameras catch it all for posterity. You'll never enjoy creampies like this is real life with anyone but your trusted steady lay - and if you do with your occasional fuck buddy, be fucking careful, dude - so why not enjoy the slightly dangerous side of orgasmic expulsions with Team Skeet's latest addition, Teen Pies.
Taking a trip to Asia is a great reason to keep a diary, but, really, no one cares about what you ate, how crowded Beijing's subway is, or how beautiful Thailand's buddhist temples and shrines are - they just wanna know about your sex life! Asian Sex Diary offers a near-perfect example of how one Western man with a bit of cash and a decent camera can not only bang sexy Asian women in most every country in the continent, but write in captivating detail about his adventures and share photos and videos of his conquests in all their carnal glory to his own roaring success. Jealous?
Your mom might've taught you long division and how to bake three kinds of casseroles with the same five ingredients, but she never gave you an education like the ones being provided at Moms Teach Sex. Pairing a mature pornstar babe with a inexperienced sexual newbie, this Nubiles site breaks taboos and crosses boundaries many of us vowed never to even approach. But Moms Teach Sex has a very large problem you really should know about. (Well, maybe "large" isn't the right word for it.)
