Duck hunting
Bubba and Earl decided they'd try duck hunting. They gathered their guns and the dogs and the ammunition and their orange hunting hats and tramped about for hours, but they had no luck whatsoever.
When they came out of the woods at dusk, they saw that all the other hunters were carrying large bundles of dead ducks.
"Gee," Bubba says to Earl, "everyone else seems to be doing pretty well for themselves. What do you think we could be doing wrong?"
"I dunno," said Earl. "Maybe we're not throwing the dogs up high enough."
Easy landings
With napping air traffic controllers in the news, some might remember when they went on strike in 1980. What you might not recall is that two celebrities came in to take their place.
First, Tattoo from "Fantasy Island" would point to the sky and yell, "Da plane! Da plane!" Then Bob Barker would yell, "Come on down!"
Two black eyes
A man came to work on Monday morning with two black eyes. His boss asked what happened.
He said, "Sunday I was sitting behind a big woman at church. When we stood up to sing hymns, I noticed that her dress was caught in her crack. I was trying to be nice and pulled it out for her. Then she turned around and punched me in the eye."
The boss said, "Well, that's understandable. Where did you get the other shiner?"
"The man said, "I figured she didn't want it out, so I pushed it back in."
Wait a while
Two women had met for lunch and were discussing their home lives.
"Seems like all Alfred and I do anymore is fight," said one. "I've been so upset I've lost 20 pounds."
"Why don't you just leave him then?" asked her friend.
"Oh, not yet," the first replied. "I'd like to lose at least another 15 pounds first."
See here
The nurse says, "Doctor, there's an invisible man in your waiting room."
The doctor says, "Tell him I can't see him now. Next!"
Seems obvious
A salesman knocks at the door of a home, and it's answered by a 12-year-old boy holding a cigar in one hand and a half-empty bottle of scotch in the other.
The salesman says, "Excuse me, son, but is your mom or dad in?"
The boy replies, "Does it look like it?"
Just watch

experiencinglifeforme said: Where did you get your cross stitch case? I freaking love the diy potential of it
Hi there! You can get them on Etsy or Amazon or PurlSoho!! :)
Here's the second iPhone case I made.
I decided not to include any words on this one and just let it be more subtle! I love the way her hair came out!!! :) :) :)
Here's a comparison of the two iPhone cases side by side. The black one is Leese and the red one is from ZuGadgets. The cross stitch designs are my own of course :).
After my mom's needlepoint case, I had this crazy plan to buy a million Cross stitch iPhone cases and cross stitch something for all of my friends for Christmas. Cool idea…in theory. In practice, I would have had to think of this back in June to get everyone done along with all the other things I'm trying to do. So I settled on making 2, one for a friend and one for my boyfriend's mom!
The black case was the actual Leese case that I bought from a seller on Etsy. I used 2 or 3 strands- can't remember at the moment but definitely no more than 3 because the holes aren't that big!
Here's after I miscalculated the neck and had to redo the entire face and neck. Grr.
Here's the corrected neck and shoes!
My friend wears glasses so I thought I'd give his little mini-him some funky green glasses but it ended up looking a little too nerdy/Green Lantern-y (which in retrospect isn't bad).
I decided not to cross stitch black eyes since the case is black. It's a little difficult to see the dark brown hair but here's the final product:
He looks a little bit like a line backer but that's ok. My favroite part has to be the shoes. I know it's just a simple line but I love how cute they make him look. :) I also think the jean color is PERFECT. I should have probably written down what color that is….
Can you believe it's almost been one whole year since we released an original amigurumi pattern/design (Snuggles the Penguin)? Thank you for being so patient with us, particularly since this blog is called "All About Ami [gurumi]" yet we haven't made many in recent months. Being…
After getting the hang of designing and cross stitching my own pattern, I wanted to make something a little bit larger and more complex. With Christmas around the corner I decided to make something special for my Grandma-a cross stitch family portrait. She and my Grandpa had 6 children, 2 that have unfortunately passed as did Grandpa. This was my homage to when our family was whole.
I used a 14 count Aida cloth but stitched as if it was 7 count meaning instead of one full cross stitch being a 2x2 square it was 3x3. It took a little bit of time to get the hang of this especially when measuring and positioning the piece onto the cloth. But you get used to it and it gives you some extra design features in that you can make really nice half stitches. You can make half stitches with a regular 2x2 stitcg but I don't think it reads as well and they can all come out different.
This baby took FOREVER! I started back in October of 2012- October 12, 2012 to be exact. The women were mostly done by October 30th but then I didn't pick up my stitching again till December. I stitched literally day and night from the 22 till Christmas day to finish! I almost ran out of skin color thread which would have been really bad but I got lucky.
I had planned on giving my grandma and one of my uncle glasses but I really didn't like the way they looked. Not sure if it's something about the size but I'm happy I kept them out. Here's grandma with and without glasses. I think she looks more feminine without them.
Cool details I like: my uncle's widow's peak and my other uncle's pony tail :).
Stuff I would change: 1. My grandpa's sweater color is too close to the Aida cloth. It was hard picking a color for the aida because I wanted you to be able to see all the details of pattern like my grandma's white hair. I generally prefer the dark oatmeal/muslin color though.
2. The lettering: I like it overall except I think the o's can be easily confused with a's.
During the first half of my project (the women), I worked on each person till completion leaving the little details like earrings or glasses till last. During the second half (the men) I decided to proceed by thread color so that I wouldn't have to constantly change thread. I like this method a little better because you don't have a bunch of random thread colors lying about- you continue using the color till you're done with it and then you can put it away. This method does require more counting though since you're working with unfinished people. For example, once I finished my grandpa's face I had to count a certain number of boxes to the right to get to my uncle's face. Count well and as many times as you need-nothing like messing up the spacing and having to undo everything and start again.
Note: I decided to keep wide toothy grins for everyone instead of lips. I didn't really find the right shade to match the skin color.
I used 3 threads. For the first part I used a 12 inch hoop. I bought a 14 inch quilting hoop but my piece of Aida cloth wasn't big enough for it. During the second half- I forgot my hoop so free handed it. It came out fine.
Here's a picture of some of the back stitching. I forgot to take a picture of the back at the end of the project. oooops!
When I finally gave it to my grandma, she said "Ooh it pretty" and everyone else who saw it really liked it. I'm pretty happy with how it came out. Can't wait to see it framed!
Pretty good site with tons of cross stitch tips as well as tons of patterns!

In an effort to improve the prediction of violence among psychiatric inpatients, the authors retrospectively studied 25 patients who were violent and 34 who were not violent after admission to a psychiatric emergency ward in Norway. The only demographic variable that discriminated between the two groups was violence in the family of origin; the violent group had experienced significantly more. The best single predictor of violence was a history of previous violence by the patient, which correctly classified 80 percent of the patients. The combined information about patients' level of aggression rated at referral and level of anxiety rated at admission correctly classified 78 percent. In a subgrouping of violent patients who inflicted injuries and did not inflict injuries, a higher percentage of the injury-inflicting patients were found to have a diagnosis of schizophrenia. These patients also had a higher level of aggression at referral.

Scarlett Johansson's lawyer is on the attack -- warning a bunch of websites that Scarlett owns the copyright to her HACKED nude pics and anyone who doesn't take 'em down will FACE HIS WRATH!!!!
TMZ has learned ... Scarlett's attorney -- legal pit bull Marty Singer -- has fired off threatening letters to various sites including TheDirty.com ... demanding that the sites remove the "stolen copyright protected private photographs" immediately ... or face legal action.
Singer claims, "The highly personal and private photographs at issue capture our client self-posing in her own home in a state of undress and/or topless."
And just to make sure he's perfectly clear, Singer concludes ... "If you fail to comply, you will be acting at your own peril. Please govern yourselves accordingly."
TheDirty tells TMZ ... the site will adhere to Singer's request and take down the photos.
As we first reported, Scarlett's people have contacted the FBI over the photo hack and the feds are investigating.
She shouldn't fight this. She looks hot as hell in them. I had a fun time looking at them earlier.
TMZ can't keep the spam selling shoes, watches and fake Chinese knock-offs off its website?
While she has great assets none of them include a brain.
I don't see why she's even trying to stop the pics, they are everywhere. Making nude pics disappear from the internet is nearly impossible.
When are these celebs going to get some common sense, don't save naked pics of yourself on your computer or cell phone.
i wish them luck with the isanyoneup.com web site.. theres been a few times when lawyers contact the creator of the site asking to take them down and he does not.. so good luck on that one.
So, this insanely hot women with amazing breasts (oh yeah!) takes nude pictures of herself? Why? I mean, that sounds very arousing, but it's not like she's taking the pictures for herself; celebrities shouldn't be doing this kind of stuff especially if they're going to save them in their phones and computers. Geez, she actually got the FBI involved? At least one Jewish broad in Hollywood who has some huge ones (Kat Dennings) was free to show hers. Ha ha. The only thing that will be better than Johansson's twins, is Christina Hendricks'.... oh mama!
I wondered why they were all disappearing. Maybe this is what Blake Lively should have done instead of denying it was her. Erin Amdrews' lawyers also did a decent job removing her weird videos
This really quite unattractive woman should see this as an opportunity to get some publicity for her moribund career.
Take this photo down!!!!
Mediatakeout still has them posted.. Go get 'em sue the mispelling bastards until their spell check starts to work.
ha! next time dont do a bunch of photoshoots where your tits are hanging out but you jusssst cover up the niples and vag. TEASETEASETEASE
If anyone's party-hats were worth a lawsuit, it'd be hers.
Good luck sending those cease and desists overseas, where they don't give a flying ****
Bullsnot, she leaked these herself.

I was re-reading my February issue of Cosmo today (I like to re-read the issues several times and memorize all the sex tips) and I came across an article titled The Sex He'll Die For. Basically what it is, is an article on foreplay strategies that will "bring on the bliss." First of all, this article shouldn't have been titled The Sex He'll Die For. It should've been titled, He's So Glad About The Prospect of Getting Ass That He'll Do Whatever Type of Foreplay He Thinks Will Make You Happy if it Means Him Getting Laid. That was probably just too long to fit on the page. What the article goes on to discuss is ways to lengthen the foreplay to intensify your man's orgasm.
So I got to reading it and I realized that these tips that they are giving can be much more simplified. Seriously, guys are not as complex as they describe. The articles goes on for about four pages. That is too long. I will now, in just a mere few sentences, re-write this entire article.
Cosmo's Tip #1: Seduce him with a massage.
Ashley's Tip #1: Touch his penis.
Cosmo's Tip #2: Tease him like crazy through elaborate means ranging from wearing a seductive outfit to licking your lips to winking at him.
Ashley's Tip #2: Tell him you like cardboard boxes. He will somehow interpret this into meaning you want to have sex with him.
Cosmo's Tip #3: Don't neglect his nipples. Start by rubbing them softly, then slowly lick them gently in a circular pattern.
Ashley's Tip #3: Don't let him neglect your nipples. Not only will he get just as turned on doing the same thing to you, but you won't have to do any actual work. Just sit there and enjoy. If there is a television present in the room, might I suggest turning it on and catching the newest Colbert Report while he does his business.
Cosmo's Tip #4: Pay attention to pubic hair.
Ashley's Tip #4: Pay attention to pubic hair. If the sex is so bad that you need to follow this tip, try braiding it. It'll help pass the time. Bonus points for french braids.
Cosmo's Tip #5: Improve on a classic: give him a hand job.
Ashley's Tip #5: Give him a hand. If he can actually get you off. Which so few men have. Oh, sorry, I'm bringing my own personal stuff into this.
Cosmo's Tip #6: Hold the heattemporarily. If you think he's going to come, pull back.
Ashley's Tip #6: Hold the heatuntil YOU think you're going to come. That son of a bitch will not go first because then you know he's going to fall asleep before returning the favor.
And that, my friends, is how you write an article on sex tips.

The V-Strom is never going to electrify you with thrills. It's not breathtakingly quick, but it is easy to ride and manageable, delivering loads of low and midrange grunt. You can throw it around with confidence and it's backed up by excellent traction control and ABS. It's also comfortable, natural, frugal and simple – yet still has neat touches like ...

Triumph's remodelled Tiger Sport replaces the Tiger 1050, which was produced from 2007 to 2012. It's smoother, more powerful and comfier for rider and pillion alike. It has a lower, narrower seat and the old projector headlights have been replaced with conventional items, with a broader beam. It's fast, fun, practical, comes with ABS and has a commading, upright riding ...

Its odd looks will always raise questions, but the engine won't, it's a peach. There's loads of low down, a nice spread of torque and the dollop of top end power should see it as the quickest bike in this category. It's also extremely comfortable, will eat mile after mile all day long and handles reasonably well (up to a ...

With the all-new 2007 Triumph Tiger 1050, the Hinckley firm decided to put cross-country aptitudes to one side.

Thomas Eshelman struck out 12 and tossed his third consecutive complete game for Cal State Fullerton, but for the second week in a row, he also took the loss. UC Riverside (21-23, 9-7) took the series opener behind a brilliant, 39-pitch, four-inning save by Dylan Stuart.

SoCal Roundup: Kissing Your Sister
With UC Santa Barbara, Pepperdine and Cal State Northridge not having lights at their fields, it opens up the possibility of being able to catch multiple games in one day when those teams play at home and then other Southern California squads host night games.
But not having lights also opens up the possibility of games being suspended, postponed or even called due to darkness. That was the case on Tuesday when UCLA visited Santa Barbara and ended up going into extra innings where the game came to a completely unsatisfactory conclusion after 12 innings.
That plus more in Tuesday's Southern California college baseball roundup that features photo galleries from Fullerton, Pepperdine and LMU:
Long Beach Shuts Down Cal Poly for Series Win
LONG BEACH, Calif. — With two outs in the first inning, Long Beach State first baseman Ino Patron hit a hard but seemingly innocuous grounder to first base. But the ball squirted past Tim Wise, allowing Patron to reach. Back-to-back base hits by Richard Prigatano and Michael Hill plated Patron with an unearned run.
That was it.
For the next eight innings, neither No. 2 Cal Poly nor the Dirtbags (20-21, 7-5) could scratch across a run as Long Beach State took a 1-0 victory and the biggest series win in Troy Buckley's head coaching tenure.
SoCal Roundup: Seven-Run Rally
UCLA faced a nightmare inning late on Saturday while Fullerton saw the resurrection of its offense. A pair of doubleheaders in NorCal featured tight games while Josh Frye tried to maintain his scoreless streak while facing the No. 2 team in the country.
All that plus more in Saturday's Southern California college baseball roundup that features video interviews and photo galleries from Long Beach State, Fullerton & San Diego State: Continue reading

And Josh Frye finally had his scoreless streak snapped at 30.2 innings pitched, but by the time Cal Poly (36-6, 12-2) got to the 6-foot-7 senior Saturday afternoon at Blair Field, Long Beach State already had the game in hand.
The Dirtbags (19-21, 6-5) scored six runs (only three earned runs) off starter Justin Calomeni to chase him from the game in the fourth inning. And when Frye did allow two runs to score, Long Beach immediately answered with a run in the bottom of the sixth, taking a 7-2 victory to even the series with the Mustangs.
Frye needed just 100 pitches over eight innings to earn his fourth win. He allowed six hits and two runs (one earned) while tying his career high with six strikeouts.
Fullerton Snaps 6-Game Losing Streak With Walk-Off
FULLERTON, Calif. — Rain was pouring down, drenching everything at Goodwin Field Friday night.
Cal State Fullerton's players were doing the dreaded task of putting the tarp on the field. Yet, there was nothing but smiles on the Titans' faces.
After a rough two weeks that featured a pair of Big West series losses, a 16-inning loss at Fresno State on Wednesday and their head coach being under an administrative investigation, the Titans finally had something to smile about.
For 21.1 straight innings, Cal State Fullerton (19-17, 4-6) had been held scoreless. But with two outs and a pair of runners on base, Tanner Pinkston grounded one up the middle and Jared Deacon raced home from second base to give the Titans a 1-0 win over Hawai'i (15-23, 3-10) in 10 innings.
Trojans Snap 9-Game Losing Streak Against UCLA
Timmy Robinson wasn't on the roster the last time USC defeated crosstown rival UCLA. He was still in high school. But the sophomore outfielder blasted a three-run homer in the first inning to help the Trojans end a nine-game losing streak to their crosstown rivals with a 10-0 victory Thursday night at Jackie Robinson Stadium.

Kern Shows Bruins' Ability to Plug Holes
When UCLA's Nick Kern finally looked up, he was halfway to second base and he noticed the umpire was signaling home run.
"It must have been the adrenaline. I just took off and was looking to get on second base. I saw that it was back-spinning to left field and I didn't put it together that it had gone over the fence until almost second base."
Kern barely slowed down as his adrenaline floated him around the bases after his eighth-inning, pinch-hit two-run homer gave the UCLA Bruins a 3-1 lead at Utah last Thursday. Not bad for your first collegiate at bat…especially when you are a pitcher. Continue reading
SoCal Roundup: Best Catcher in the Country?
In college baseball, starting catchers often get the mid-week games off to rest their legs in preparation for the more important weekend series, especially during the conference season, but with an extra day of rest thanks to the Easter schedule, Shane Zeile was behind the plate for UCLA on Tuesday.
He proved to be a difference maker in the Bruins' matchup with Loyola Marymount and afterwards his coach lauded high praise on him, calling Zeile one of the top catchers in the country.
Check out how Zeile impacted the game, what else Savage had to say about him and get the full roundup of Tuesday's Southern California college baseball action. We've got you covered with photo galleries from San Diego State, USC and UCLA:
SoCal Roundup: Zero After Zero
There were three walk-off wins, but the most impressive performance came in a game that ended with neither team scoring a run the final eight innings. There were also two relievers that were lights out for a combined 10.1 innings.
Find out which pitchers were throwing up zero after zero in Friday's Southern California college baseball roundup that features photo galleries from Pepperdine, Irvine and Northridge:

Federal energy regulators plan to impose new security rules on electric utilities to make sure they protect major substations and other facilities critical to the operation of the electric grid.
In an order issued late Friday, the Federal Energy Regulatory Commission said it would require physical protection for locations which, if badly damaged, could produce cascading blackouts or other widespread problems.
The agency's action follows recent articles in The Wall Street Journal about the vulnerability of the electric grid to physical attack. Gunmen who shot up a California substation last April did so much damage that it took workers almost a month to repair 17 large transformers that help send power to Silicon Valley. No one has been arrested in the incident.
The federal agency directed a standards-writing organization called the North American Electric Reliability Corp. to work with utilities to determine which sites are essential, define threats and develop physical-protection standards. The standards should be based on "objective analysis, technical expertise and experienced judgment," the agency said.
The standards-drafting group must submit a proposal in 90 days. Under the system established by Congress, FERC lacks authority to rewrite proposals; it must accept or reject them or ask the group to revise them.
The agency provided no detailed guidance on what it wants from the standards-writing group, which is dominated by utilities which would face fines of up to $1 million a day for each infraction of the new rules. The Edison Electric Institute, which represents investor-owned utilities, didn't immediately respond to a request for comment.
The grid is designed to withstand the loss of any single substation, so in a sense no single facility is vital to the bulk power system. But any of the nation's three electrical regions--East, West and Texas--could become unstable if multiple critical substations were lost, experts have warned.
In a statement, FERC's acting chairman, Cheryl LaFleur, said the agency was persuaded to act "because the grid is so critical to all aspects of our society and economy."
Even as it moved to set standards--something members of Congress also have requested recently--the agency broached the topic of moving the standards-setting process out of the public eye.
In a separate written opinion, Commissioner John Norris said he wants Congress to act to allow the agency to collect but withhold from public release "sensitive security information regarding the physical vulnerabilities of our grid."
He asked Congress to create "a clearly defined exemption to the Freedom of Information Act to allow for such exchange of information without fear of disclosure."

By all means, avoid unless they upgrade their service
We went there today and were totally disappointed. Most reviews referring to the horrible service applied to us. Kid's hamburger arrived after 40 minutes, which they had announced so fine. But there's probably a waiter still circling the tables with the Rodyk poached eggs for me and my wife. When after nearly an hour and a half we got upset and complained we got the bill and they only charged us the drinks. But guess how long I had to wait for my credit card to come back. Sorry, but by all means: avoid.

1988 Volvo 740 GLE from North America
Headliner falling down (yes the particle dust is annoying) - needs fixing this year.
Mileage not as good as before, still good for its age.
Minor oil leaks; was fixed but still showing.
Brakes are weak (pedal is soft) - still stops as usual, wish I could fix the brake pedal softness.
Some rust bubbles showing last year (2013).
Plastic cracking or easily cracked.
General Comments:
I have had this car since new. Really enjoyed driving it around, was getting really decent 10.3-11L/100km for mostly city driving, and better if more highway driving.
Good acceleration despite 110 HP; runs quiet and best mileage at 100-120km/hr, engine more noisy at 80-100.
Fish tailing in snow (two or three 10-20lbs sand/cement bags help) or rear spin on wet surfaces (the solution is to use new or better tires).
Amazing - my car passes vehicle emission tests with results near or better than average for all makes and years.
Would you buy another car from this manufacturer? Yes

Emmy nomination stuff
- I couldn't care less about Orange is the New Black, but Laverne Cox getting nominated is bomb-diggity awesome
- I want Amy Poehler to finally win an Emmy SO BAD but JLD deserves it as usual
- Allison Janney got nominated for two Emmys, two different shows, in comedy and drama. She is unparalleled.
- Other than that no big surprises or noteworthy comments, except to say that I hate Matthew McConaughey and The Big Bang Theory and will never understand the appeal of either

As mentioned earlier this week, whilst in Turkey I visited with BKM, the interbank clearing system for low value payments.
Owned by the largest 10 banks in Turkey, BKM opened for business in 1990 and now processes half of the transactions in the country.
The other half are run on a 'as on-us' basis on the same bank card or same bank POS or ATM (there are 49 banks in Turkey, with 28 on the BKM system).

I had a problem with Season 2 Episode 8. Seems at the begining there's a little hickup. Anyways when I goto convert it to DVD that hickup throws the audio sync outta whack. Any chance of a new rip? Thanks
Season 2 episode 7 will not play for me at all. The other episodes work, but many are small 360x240 dalnet files.
Of course, since there are no DVDs yet and nobody probably cared enough to cap the reruns as XviDs.
Thanks love the show and will seed right back...
Good Quality.
Good Quality.
Quality Is low, :(
Quality is low because the series (Namely the first few seasons) came out loooong before anything HD. And only the first two seasons were released on DVD.

MICROS Acquisition Makes Oracle #1 in Retail POS – How will SAP Respond?Posted: June 24, 2014 | By: Ken Morris | Comments: 2 responses
Retail is a focus industry for both Oracle and SAP – Share your opinions on the impact of the Oracle acquisition and what you think will happen next.
With the pending acquisition of MICROS, Oracle will become the new leader in retail POS software according to our 2014 POS/Customer Engagement Survey results. Oracle's largest acquisition since it acquired Sun Microsystems in 2010 demonstrates the attractiveness of industries it considers to be ripe for technology transformation and growth.
This move sparks several questions that are worthy of debate:
- What changes in technology make retail/QSR/hospitality attractive enough for Oracle to invest $5.3 billion?
- How will the combination of Oracle and MICROS truly benefit retailers?
- How will SAP respond to this move? Will they make a similar acquisition, and if so, what company would be a good fit?
We would like your opinions on these questions or other feedback you have on this topic. Please respond in the comments section below.
Here are some thoughts from Boston Retail Partners' executives:
"The retail industry is on the verge of a significant transformation from a customer engagement and technology perspective, which makes it a compelling investment opportunity for companies like Oracle," said Walter Deacon, Principal, Boston Retail Partners. "Consumers will expect real-time retail capabilities that deliver a seamless shopping experience wherever, and whenever, they shop. Oracle's addition of MICROS store applications, combined with its existing enterprise, analytics, eCommerce and cloud capabilities, hold the promise to offer a complete solution making 'real-time retail' a reality! A key determinator of success, will be the integration of the two companies' commerce technologies."
"Oracle has extensive capabilities and experience in enterprise retail software and the addition of MICROS expands its portfolio to become the de facto leader in retail POS software," said Ken Morris, Principal, Boston Retail Partners. "With the advancements made in network reliability, virtual POS applications are prime for adoption in the retail space. Networks are ready to change retail as we know it – just like they transformed the banking industry with ATMs. With Oracle's robust enterprise cloud infrastructure, it is well positioned to extend its cloud capabilities to retail store applications like POS."
"Oracle and SAP have been fierce software competitors in many industries and retail is a key battleground," said Ken Claflin, Executive Vice President, Boston Retail Partners. "It will be interesting to see if SAP responds with a similar acquisition or adds new capabilities that differentiate them from Oracle in this competitive market."
Please add your opinions and comments below…

2 thoughts on "MICROS Acquisition Makes Oracle #1 in Retail POS – How will SAP Respond?"
Oracle may now be #1 in market share but that is largely with a number of old, disparate, legacy POS systems. The question should be will they be able to maintain that market share. If I were a retail tech professional I would have at least some small degree of FUD (fear, uncertainty and doubt).
Eric is essentially correct here. Oracle has legacy 360 Commerce and Chelsea while Micros has Xstore, Store 21 and Retail-J acquired when Micros purchase Torex. The 360 Product and Xstore are the go forward products and both have a large client base with Oracle in the Tier 1 space and Micros/Xstore offering the leading product in Tier 2 and 3.
My thought here is that Oracle made the acquisition to get the Food, Hospitality and the Analytics (XBR) side of the business where they have virtually no footprint. They will probably merge the two Java products (360 Commerce and Xstore) to one in a 2016+ release and offer amnesty to all stragglers on old versions while expanding the Food/Hospitality and Analytics worldwide.

Thank you Mr. President.
The United States commends the Commission of Inquiry's excellent and comprehensive report to the Council, which documents the "systematic, widespread, and gross human rights violations" in the DPRK.
The United States remains deeply concerned about the human rights and well-being of the people of the DPRK. We regret that the government refused to cooperate with the Commission and prevented the Commission from visiting the country to fulfill its mandate.
We strongly support the Commission's calls for accountability and urge the Office of the High Commissioner to establish a field-based mechanism for continued monitoring and documenting human rights abuses in the DPRK, which will carry on the investigative work of the Commission and support the work of the Special Rapporteur.
The Commission's report highlights disturbing patterns of human rights violations in nine areas, from violations of the right to life to enforced disappearances, including abductions. We are deeply troubled by the Commission's findings that these violations and abuses may "meet the high threshold required for proof of crimes against humanity in international law."
The Commission also found that North Koreans who are repatriated to North Korea are commonly subjected to torture, arbitrary detention and execution, forced abortion, and other forms of sexual violence. We call upon all states to respect the principle of non-refoulement and to offer protection to DPRK nationals at risk of harm.
We urge the DPRK to address the ongoing human rights violations and accept the recommendations that the Commission directed to the government. We urge the DPRK to engage directly with the UN Office of the High Commissioner for Human Rights and thematic special rapporteurs on how to implement its international human rights obligations and commitments.
We reiterate our position that the DPRK has a choice: it can address its human rights record and abide by its international obligations and commitments – a step that the international community would welcome – or it will face further isolation.
We welcome the Commission's thoughts on steps the DPRK might take to begin a process of human rights reform, in particular first steps for dismantling the political prison camps. We also welcome any further suggestions on how the international community can continue to press for improvements in human rights conditions for the people of the DPRK.

USL Pro league:
The Richmond Kickers extended their unbeaten streak to 15 games, beating the Dayton Dutch Lions 3-2 Saturday night at Beavercreek High in Ohio. The loss ended Dayton's 10-game unbeaten streak.
Richmond (9-0-6) is in second place to Orlando City in the United Soccer Leagues Pro standings.
Luke Vercollone scored in the 56th and 59th minute to give the Kickers a 2-1 edge over the Lions (7-3-5). Michael Seaton converted after a long pass from Sascha Gorres in the 71st for a 3-1 margin, enabling the Kickers to withstand the Lions' goal by Greg Preciado in the 87th.
The Virginia Beach Piranhas (8-1-1) shut out the Long Island Rough Riders 2-0 on a hot day in New York, officially eliminating the hosts from playoff contention.
Making the playoffs is no problem for the Piranhas, who have 25 points -- the most among the league's 25 teams.
Shan Jones, the W-League's top scorer, set up forward Ashley Braam for a first-half goal.

Exclusive outtakes from industry leaders
Feldstein: NYC housing market "priced in euros and pesos"
Asked if weakness in the New York real estate market – which has been fairly resilient so far – could signal a bottom for the battered U.S. housing market, the head of the influential National Bureau of Economic Research said :
"No, no no! The New York real estate market is priced in euros and pesos," Martin Feldstein said, referring to overseas investors snapping up property in the Big Apple which for them works out as a relative bargain because of the weak dollar.
A better indicator to determine whether the worst is over, he added, would be house prices starting to rise nationwide. Feldstein was speaking at the Reuters Investment Outlook Summit in New York.
To hear what he had to say, please click here
So, if the dollar strengthens can we assume NYC real estate drops? Wouldn't foreign investors have an incentive to sell NYC properties?
Perhaps this foreign acquisition of US property at firesale prices is, like unchecked immigration, a facet of the plan to dilute the power of the average US citizenry.

Salted Caramel?
- wutzizname Apr 8, 2010 07:22 PM
Other than Huckleberry -- which I love -- and the now defunct Boule... where else can one find great salted caramels?
yum, love that Huckleberry salted caramel bar. Little Flower makes salted caramels sold at a number of places around town.
re: mollyomormon
Here you go.
re: mollyomormon
very helpful. thanks, mm.
re: mollyomormon
If you love Huckleberry's salted caramel bar, you will also love their salted caramel ice cream which they make for their Sweet Rose Creamery ice cream store.
Sweet Rose Creamery
225 26th St #51, Los Angeles, CA 90049
I hate to say this but Trader Joe's makes a good one that is very reasonably priced. Try it and see what you think.
This isn't eactly what you are looking for, but the ice cream lovers in my family went bananas for Chili Addiction's salted carmel ice cream.
Chili Addiction
408 N La Cienega Blvd, Los Angeles, CA 90048
La Brea bakery has a bin with some very nice salted caramels for $0.90 each. Gelson's and Whole Foods carry Fran's chocolate salted caramels which are excellent. They have dark and milk.
Also, I bought a large bag of salted caramels at Epicurean Imports when they were open last fall.
I just recently bougt some at Cost Plus (green box, cannot remember name) and I also agree with the recs for Little Flower.
Bequet caramels are also yummy. You can order them online at http://www.bequetconfections.com/. I bought them at Marmalade Cafe in SM a few months back. Celtic sea salt is my favorite, but they also have chipotle and other flavors.
Huckleberry's salted caramel square is the best caramel thing I've ever had.
Another place to buy more traditional salted caramels is the Cheese Store of SIlver Lake.
According to Jonathan Gold:
Little Flower's Sea-Salt Caramels
If you tend to esteem human happiness more than the state of your teeth, you may have a bag of Little Flower caramels stashed in your desk right now: supple lozenges made with French sea salt from the Guérande, which dissolve into pure, buttery clouds of flavor. Christine Moore's caramels are probably the best candy made in Los Angeles at the moment. Little Flower Candy Co., 1424 W. Colorado Blvd., Pasadena. (626) 304-4800
Please let me know if they're worth ordering.

re: la2tokyo
Little Flower caramels are very good, but given a choice, Huck's caramel square wins - it's no contest for me. The shortbread crust seals the deal.
has anyone tried the salted caramel croissant from valerie confections? i keep seeing them at the farmer's market but i haven't tried one for fear that i would become addicted. i once saw a horde of girls, clearly fresh from the gym or yoga class, wipe the stall out of these pastries. they must be worth the extra calories!
re: tastycakes
I wasn't impressed as they weren't what I expected...which was a croissant. I know, crazy. It's basically a smidgen of salted caramel in the center of some puff pastry. I didn't find them worth the calories or the price, same as I feel for most of their products unfortunately.

A little closer look at the horrific details. SHUDDER.
BREAKING NEWS Archeological Discovery: Have you ever wondered how Giorgio Tsoukalos is so certain ancient aliens once roamed the Earth and mingled with human beings? Do you really think he styles his stratospheric bouffant that way just because the man loves his hair products? The truth is, Giorgio is a time traveling alien sent to Earth to star in a TV show called Ancient Aliens in order to teach humanity about our true origins. Embedded in his hair are nano transmitters used to pick up signals sent from fourth dimensional aliens flying exquisite golden spaceships. Not only do they divulge secrets to Giorgio, they insist he wear his brown three-piece suit every day. The higher Giorgio styles his hair, the stronger the signal becomes. Viewers of his show may have noticed his hair growing higher over the course of the seasons and now they know why. How high will Giorgio's hair be on the next season of Ancient Aliens and what new secrets will he reveal? (Medium: graphite on paper, digital paint)
Let The Evidence Speak for Itself
Recently, archeologists unearthed a curious golden figurine while excavating Mayan ruins in Palenque. The figurine appears to depict a large-haired humanoid waving his hands with emphatic excitement. A small monkey holding some sort of smoking apparatus appears at the figurine's sandal-clad feet. Could this be evidence that Giogio Tsoukalos lived among the Mayans as a alien entity who taught the people advanced astronomy and hair-styling techniques....as ancient alien theorists believe? (Medium: graphite on paper, digital paint)
Does this ancient aboriginal cave painting in Australia prove the theory of Giorgio Tsoukalos' time traveling abilities? Yes it does, without a doubt. (Photo from Mysterious Universe. Trickery supplied by 14. Until I figure out how to add a Facebook button to my blog, please visit 14 here.)

Our EXCLUSIVE investigation into the origins of Donald Trump's hair can now be revealed. While the untamed, flesh-ish colored fur-like thing resting atop Trump's head may look like his own hair, our investigators were shocked to discover its true origin: a genetically modified rodent. We learned that Trump employs a team of scientists consisting of biologists, geneticists and cryptozoologists who work full-time behind the ornate golden doors of a secret laboratory located inside Trump's gaudy lavish New York penthouse. Their job is to create and raise a large herd of furry, chimera-like rodents consisting of the spliced DNA of orangutans, rabid weasels, caterpillars and most troubling, a dead chupacabra found flattened on a remote road in East Texas. Trump barges into the laboratory every morning to mercilessly grab a woeful creature and slap it atop his head. The younger, smaller creatures are used as Trump's eyebrows and if you look closely, you may observe them curled up and sleeping on the hot orange flesh above The Donald's angry eyes.

When I first spotted Madonna's new fragrance ad over on D-listed, I thought it was a piece of satire. I laughed and wondered who the clever artist was that came up with such a dead-on artistic interpretation of the overuse of Photoshop in advertising. Good one. As I looked closer, I realized the ad was REAL. Hilarious!! Who does Madonna think she's kidding? If she really wanted to be provocative, she could have posed naked without all the smoke and mirrors of lighting, makeup, photoshop and other mysterious trickery. As a service to my fellow humans, I went ahead and removed all the Photoshop so Madonna and that toxic sludge she calls "fragrance" may be presented with more authenticity. I made an uncensored version of the ad too - it can be viewed here, but beware if bare boobs give you a puritan meltdown or if your boss is lurking around. Medium: digital paint.

Woo! So exciting! Now give vegans a regular cooking show! Preferably starring Isa Chandra Moskowitz and Chloe Coscarelli living in a tree house together with a bear and a squirrel. Also, they're always having a tea party and I'm in the background eating all the food and waving at my mom. PLENTY MORE IDEAS WHERE THAT CAME FROM. Call me!

Both knees partial
- Had my surgery done Jan 6th. Now it's Jan 21st! Phew, lots of work! Was in the hospital 5 days, pain yes indeed! Went home I had my boyfriend 24-7 for the first 10 days, believe me u will need it! The hardest thing and one of the most important is pt stretching! People do this massage your legs don't get lazy, I went in yesterday, had stitches removed, the wounds look ok, the sterile strips fell off:(, my brother went to pharmacy, and redid it! I have good days yes indeed, pain now is different, stiffness normal. I take pain meds, without them I would have been crazy:(. U have to stay above your pain! Pain pills yes most of us will be addicted! I am but in the mean time we have to just focus on getting better, and I am lucky cause I am an apt mgr so I live where I work! I have 100 support! Sitting at a desk I cannot even imagine:(. Move stretch do your pt never ever give up!! Am I glad I did it, maybe not the two knees together but they were both bad! I am 55, I want to play w the kid.
- —Guest Vicki Thomas
Glad I read these responses
- I had TKR on the right knee Nov 1, 2011. It was a traumatic experience and the most pain I had ever experienced. I have had a good recovery in terms of range of movement etc. But I am addicted to the pain meds and now realize it will be at least 6 months before I am recovered and unaware of my surgery. My knee is a little stiff when I first stand up, still puffy on the right side and of course, numb. Lots of weird pains as nerves try to reconnect and regrow and sometimes I just feel like I have an "alien" leg. I am not sleeping well either. I will wake with aching leg/knee and when my pain meds wear off my whole pelvis hurts. I guess it comes with the territory and I know it will be better but it's taking a lot of mental strength to get through this. I've wondered if I did the right thing but I think I'll be right as rain in a few short months.

3 Months Later
- Went back to work three months after bilateral total knee replacement. I work in an office. When at home I used the stationary bike several times a day plus my scheduled therapy. Sitting all day now has seemed to set me back a bit. My legs feel stiff after sitting a while. It is difficult getting up from a chair without something to hold on to. Steps are still ugly. I have been very diligent with my physical therapy. I have been using exercycle, stepper, weights since 2 months post op. Just dumped the cane last week. I am hoping that I have not plateaued. Have had back and hip aches off and on. Legs seem weak even after intense therapy over the 3 months. Range of motion is good though. Still take occasional pain med. Hope to hear more from others beyond 3 months. Can I expect to continue to heal? Getting a bit concerned that its as good as it gets..
- —Rich_Snow
Still in pain after 9 weeks
- I'm at the end and hate to take pain pills but have no choice. I hope there is a light at the end of the tunnel. I get so depressed. I guess I need friends that have had it done.
- —Guest cleta a gladio
Partial knees both done at the same time
- My surgery, both knees, has only been about 2 weeks now. I had PT a few times at the hospital and a few times at home. My thing, when I lay on bed and try to stretch, it hurts and almost feels like my knees are going to break.
- —Guest Vic
Back after bilaterals
- Went back to work three months after bilateral total knee replacement. They were done four days apart but during same hospital admission. I work 12 hour shifts. Normally 3/wk. My first week back I worked two days. Now I am working 3 days/wk every other day so my knees can rest. I wore ted hose first 2 wks back at work. I have done well. I am tired. My knees feel stiff some times. My hardest thing to do is get up from chair or step up without something to hold on to. I have been very diligent with my physical therapy. I have been using exercycle, stepper, sled, weights and pool since 2 months post op. I am now looking forward to getting my own Nu step type equipment in my home.
- —Guest Cheryl
Knee replacement
- I had knee replacement six weeks ago. Worst pain I have every experienced. Had PT and my flexion is great but still high pain meds to make it thru the day. Can't sleep at night. The doctor says it will get better but the pain is not showing me that. Never would I go thru this again -- my left knee is bad but I said forget it.
- —Guest sandra
Still pain 1 year after TKR
- I had TKR 11-3-10 I still have continuous pain around the front of my knee. My Dr. referred me to another Ortho dr. after 3 visits he sent me back to dr. #1. Still having lots of pain, now going to pain Dr. I work in a warehouse, walking constantly, I have worked approx. 13 weeks since surgery. I am very diappointed in my outcome so far. My left knee needs done, but I am not going to have it done, I am too afraid, one bad knee is enough. I would never have had it done had I known it would be like this.
- —Guest Nancy
Still in pain
- I had my left knee replaced on August 10th 2011, Its now Nov. 10th & I am still in pain. Especially the muscles on the side & above my knee. They spasm & hurt so bad I can't sleep. If I sleep 3 hours a night that's a good night sleep for me. I've done PT & still do some by myself. If I had known the pain would be as bad as it has been I wouldn't have had it done. I stand pain well usually but this is worst pain I've ever been in. The Dr wants to do my right knee but no way will I have it done. I went to a nursing home rehab for a week after surgery & that was the worst thing I did, They let my leg get infected & a blood clot happened, I went back to the hospital for another week. I was up walking the morning after surgery & still walk but If I don't rest a lot the pain gets worse. I still take pain pills but only when the pain gets very bad, I don't want to get addicted.
- —Guest Annette
Right knee replacement
- I recall my doctor with many medical field advisors talking about how young I am for a knee replacement. May be I am but what do you do when your doctor has exhausted every treatment possible and nothing was working other then living on pain meds. It got to the point whereby it affected my right side rear back, hip, and ankle? I got my RK replacement in July of 2011 and on November 1st 2011 they had to go in again for a revision. Yea the pain sucks but do we want to live a healthy productive life or do be accept our medical conditions and live with pain for the remainder of our life? It's depressing and sometimes you wonder if going through such drastic measures is worth it. It hurts, painful, I seen many people become successful. I wish my experience was different! They said to me I will eventually see light at the end of the tunnel. My tunnel has been dark for a very long time and it's starting to get lonely.
- —Guest Domingo
Post op pain
- I had my right knee done in Feb 2010. I now have zero pain and just over 130 degree motion. Post op pain was worst thing for me and a morphine PCA was needed for 4 days. Having the staples out was easy and the physio, although painful and hard work, was useful as it gave me goals to aim for. I also saw a specialist massage therapist for work on the scar tissue and helping to stretch the hamstrings. I would strongly suggest people use this type of treatment as at the stage you require it, it is more useful than physio. I am now 100% pain free and at 44 it has given me the quality of life I deserve. If your knee is so bad, do not be put off by being told you are to young. There are also some really good knee support groups on the Internet and these were a big help on the mental side of things. Good luck to anyone having a TKR - I promise you it is worthwhile.
- —Guest Andrew Reid
9 weeks after both knees replaced
- I am 59 year old female having worked for the last 42 years in warehousing needless to say both knees were worn out my doctor said we would just do them both at the same time which I agreed. I can say I have never had as much pain and sickness in my entire life I thought I was dying! But I didn't but I never dreamed it would be so bad not just the pain but the meds messed with my stomach could not eat anything did not sleep for the first 5 weeks over 2 hours a night got depressed cried a lot and wondered what I had done. My doctor said I was doing great and both knees range is 125. I know now I was not mentally ready for everything that was happining to my body. But now each day is a little better. The old pain is gone as the limping and uneven walk. Today I walk straight, the new pain fades with each day and I now sleep 5-6 hours each night. I can now say this was worth it. I still have a few months before I am 100% but am in the right state of mind I know I will make it now.
- —Guest charlotte
One at a time
- I had my first replacement 2 years ago, second two weeks ago. You need to have one good leg while the other is recovering. It's really important to keep taking the pain killers so you can do the bending exercises. If you don't do them then the scar tissue will restrict movement. If you walk a bit then do the bending exercises, then they can be a bit easier. Use a cold pack at least 4 times a day to minimise swelling, and raise the foot of the bed slightly. For the first time in 5 years (after a car accident) I can walk pain free, without a limp, less than 3 weeks after surgery. It only hurts when I bend it. Hydrotherapy makes the exercises easier too, well worth the trip back to the hospital where the water is warmer.
- —bowlingbun
So glad
- I am 30 days past right knee replacement and am so glad that I had it done. Starting P/T at the hospital tomorrow. Taking Aleve for pain, having trouble sleeping all of a sudden. Minor to midrange pain in my lower leg. Just curious if others have the lower leg pain issues.
- —Guest don
Back to Work in 4 Weeks
- I had my left knee replacement on 4 July 2011 and was discharged home after 4 days where I had no one but 4 walls to talk to. I returned to work as an office bound manager after 4 weeks. I required only minimal Tylenol for pain relief up to 4 weeks post op. and didn't use walking aids at any stage. I returned to 18 holes of golf at 8 weeks and at that time had 120 degrees of bend. Now at 13 weeks post op. I have 130 degrees. All in all it has been a great success and after 42 years of putting up with a painful knee I am finally free of pain. I have been using an exercycle in my lounge since week 4 and have gradually put the seat lower as my knee bends better. It is now as low as it can go. I live in New Zealand and would recommend knee replacement to anyone at any age but first check the credentials of you surgeon, understand the operation and what it entails and get in as best physical and emotional shape you can before surgery. Good luck.
- —Guest Peter

Time to move on. Despite the debacle last Thursday, there are five more games to be played. The first is up on Sunday afternoon, when the Arizona Cardinals come to town to face our New York Jets. The Cardinals come to town with a matching 4-7 record, playing basically for pride, as we are. Quarterback Mark Sanchez talked about prepping for the Arizona pass defense yesterday:
It's just being sharp and efficient in our passing game and ensuring that the routes are specific depths, the ball is coming out at the right time and that I'm delivering the ball to the right guy accurately. As always, when we're not playing catch up, when we jump out or it's an even kept game all the way through, we've had success running the ball and using our play action stuff and doing some of our drop back stuff. When we have a chance to use everything and really empty the playbook and empty the call sheet in a game, we've been successful. When you're playing catch up like last week, it makes it tough to run the football. Hopefully we can stay balanced.
Mark was also asked if Arizona's 4-7 record is indicative of their ability:
Absolutely, their record isn't indicative of the way they play, their effort and how talented they are, so it's going to be a good challenge for us. We're happy to get them at home and to see what we can do. We know it's a great defense (with) a lot of playmakers.
These guys are tough, don't take them for granted. It could be a tougher game than we think.
