Thanks for the comment! Love getting those!
Thanks, dude! Look at all those stars :3
I love watching the stars at night!
I like that message you have going there.
This was pretty good. The animation was good, the voice acting... there wasn't really much by way of storyline, but still. Nice.
Thanks, mate!
Yeah, the story line is pretty short, but it has (like you said) a message, so when I came up with this idea I just had to animate it :3
Lovely animation and the colors, as well as the shading, were fitting. THe humor was fresh too, although a little subtle. However, the line quality for the character and the commercial characters is the only thing that gets me. Although, I'm pretty sure you meant for it to be like that. XD Nicely done!
Thanks, man :D

STAMFORD, Conn. — A Stamford man suspected of stealing a car in July turned himself in to police Thursday afternoon, Sgt. Peter diSpagna said.
On July 28, police received calls of a car being stolen and another being broken into on Glenbrook Road, as well as another vehicle being broken into on nearby Courtland Avenue, he said. Video footage from the Courtland Avenue parking lot showed Mitchell Lebron, 20, driving the stolen vehicle, a 2004 Volvo S60, and breaking into another car, diSpagna said.
Lebron admitted to stealing the car and abandoning it in New York City; the car has been recovered by police, diSpagna said.
In addition to the vehicle, also taken was a camera, laptop, stamps, glasses, headphones, a computer bag, E-Z Pass, a Bible, CDs, a raincoat, a GPS, a keybox, sneakers and clothes, diSpagna said.
Lebron was charged with two counts of third-degree larceny, third-degree burglary and fifth-degree larceny, police said. He was released on a promise to appear.

AMD Radeon HD 6800 Series Graphics Cards On Linux?
Published on 21 October 2010 11:12 PM EDT
Written by
Michael Larabel
64 Comments
This evening AMD has officially launched their Radeon HD 6800 series, which currently includes the Radeon HD 6850 and Radeon HD 6870 graphics cards. These are just two of several next-generation graphics cards to be launched over the coming weeks and months for consumers while next year the
derivatives for professional/workstation customers should come around too based upon this architecture. How though does the AMD Radeon HD 6000 series play with Linux?
While those in our forums have been talking about
Radeon HD 6000 specifications
for weeks now with dozens of comments, the official specs for the AMD Radeon HD 6850 with its "Barts Pro" GPU include 960 Stream processors, 48 texture units, 32 ROPs, a 775MHz core clock, 1GHz memory clock with 256-bit memory bus, 1GB frame-buffer, and a 127W TDP. The AMD Radeon HD 6870 deploys the "Barts XT" GPU and it has 1120 Stream processors, 56 texture units, 32 ROPs, a 900MHz core clock, 1GB of 1.05GHz GDDR5 memory with 256-bit interface, and a 151W TDP.
As we reported this morning,
there is no open-source Radeon HD 6000 series support ready
. It will come, but it's not here yet. With some luck it also won't take as long as it took for the Radeon HD 5000 series milestones with kernel mode-setting and then 2D/3D acceleration coming much later on. AMD's few employees focused on their open-source strategy have already been
focusing upon the said support
for a few weeks now, but the DRM/KMS support won't be out for the Linux 2.6.37 kernel. The good news is that when it comes to enabling OpenGL/3D support for this new "Northern Islands" hardware in the open-source stack,
it should be Gallium3D-only
rather than first dealing with any classic Mesa Radeon driver that will end up being deprecated anyways. Sadly we don't know yet whether we'll find any decent video playback acceleration with the Radeon HD 6000 series (such as by VDPAU, VA-API, or even XvBA), or whether open-source fans will be stuck with X-Video.
Though if you plan to order the Radeon HD 6850 or HD 6870 graphics cards anytime soon, chances are you're getting this hardware for gaming or other visually intensive tasks where the current open-source code for any ATI/AMD generation does not fit the requirements. The good news is that there should be AMD Catalyst Linux driver support ready if you don't mind using their proprietary driver. Either with Catalyst 10.10 or next month with Catalyst 10.11 the first support for these new ASICs should be in place. With this you'll have 2D/3D acceleration, various other features (i.e. CrossFire), and also X-Video Bitstream Acceleration support, but the video playback may be broken as seems to be frequently the case with this driver and XvBA. AMD has provided close to same day Linux support in their Catalyst driver for both the Radeon HD 4000 and Radeon HD 5000 series.
Unfortunately we don't know how this first-cut Catalyst Linux support will be for the AMD Radeon HD 6800 graphics cards. AMD has yet to send over any of these new graphics cards, so the world is left not knowing how the Linux support actually stacks up. We can only hope we will see some Radeon HD 6000 series hardware soon to deliver up Linux performance numbers and see what features are working.
In the meantime, you can always read
AMD's press release
or stop by
to find links to some Windows reviews of this new hardware.
For those wondering, the AMD Radeon HD 6850 graphics card is set to retail starting out at $179 USD while the AMD Radeon HD 6870 will go for at least $239 USD. Both of these graphics cards should be available near immediately at

The term 'transmissible small nuclear ribonucleic acids' (TsnRNAs) describes well characterised viroid RNA species that do not induce any disease syndromes in specific citrus hosts but rather act as regulatory genetic elements modifying tree performance. Twelve-year-old navel orange and 10-year-old Clementine mandarin trees on Carrizo citrange (Citrus sinensis×Poncirus trifoliata) rootstock treated with a mixture of three TsnRNAs (−Ia, syn. Citrus bent leaf viroid, +IIa, syn. Hop stunt viroid and +IIIb, syn. Citrus dwarfing viroid) were reduced in size by 33% and 43%, respectively. Clementine trees treated with a mixture of TsnRNA−Ia+IIa or −Ia+IIIb also had reduced canopy volume (CV) (∼38 and 31%, respectively), whereas trees treated with TsnRNA−IIa+IIIb showed little effect. The effects of the double TsnRNA treatments −Ia+IIa and −Ia+IIIb on Clementine canopy size and commercial performance were comparable and in some cases superior to that of the triple TsnRNA mixture. The TsnRNA−Ia+IIa treatment had the most attractive commercial traits with increased production of Clementine fruit per CV (23.6%), more fruit with high commercial value (31.7%), and more fruit optimally distributed in the canopy (68% of fruit between 0.5 and 2.5 m). None of the TsnRNA treatments affected the growth of Carrizo rootstock seedlings after 8 years in the field. Navel orange and Clementine scions treated with the same triple TsnRNA mixture expressed different trunk and fruit production patterns although effects on CV were similar.

RebekahB30 - Review from Nordstrom
Very pretty but...It's a cute bra for sure... but I'm only a very small C and I was hanging out big time (in the medium) and had NO support AT ALL. If I was an A or a small B, it would work. Pretty bra though!
amberb - Review from Nordstrom
Sexy but smallI wear a 32D so I ordered a small which is what the sizing chart suggested. Unfortunately I have to return it because while the band fit, the cups just were not big enough and I was majorly spilling over. The straps are very thin as well which caused it to dig into my shoulders and twist/roll a lot. The material and look is super cute but it did not contain me at all.
There are no reviews for this brand. Be the first!

...But bare with me...
yes it has USB ports, no your keyboard mouse wont work on it.Originally Posted by gmarappledude
I have a question, does the 360 have a pair of usb sockets, if so is it possible to plug in a standard usb keyboard and mouse and play as if on PC? If so then I may try consoles, there is fun to be had.
If I want to know when my friends are online and gaming on the PC, I have to run MSN to check they're online and then hope that me messaging them doesn't crash them out of a game - how annoying is it when your game switches out when someone pings you? The friends list on Live is simply genius. I can see when my friends were last online, what they were playing, I can send invites to get them to play with me, I can see when they sign in - regardless of what I'm doing at the time - and the whole experience of hooking up to play together is totally seamless. If only there was something like this for the PC - I'm fed up of spending time trawling server browsers looking for names I recognise.
[spelling whore]...because my time is simply to short to indulge in rubbish.

Massachusetts man finds kidney donor online
A North Reading man used the Internet to find a kidney transplant match from a woman across the country.
Eddie Beatrice developed a bacterial infection from rotator cuff surgery in 2011 that sent his body into septic shock. His kidneys began shutting down.
"I went from having two healthy kidneys to zero -- end stage renal failure," he said.
After several months at Massachusetts General Hospital, he was discharged, but continues on dialysis.
Beatrice was put on a waiting list for a kidney transplant. He went online and spotted a post on the Living Kidney Donor Network Facebook page.
"I was put on the list in October 2012. The wait is anywhere from four to eight years. Quite frankly, I didn't have four to eight years," he said.
Kelly Wright, of Newport Beach, Calif., said she registered with the national network to do an anonymous donation.
"I just thought it would be an incredible gift to help another person," Wright said.
It was Wright's post that caught Beatrice's eye.
Wright said, "If I'm a match, I'd be happy to help you."
She proved to be a match, and a kidney transplant is scheduled for the next week.
"I get a gift, too. I get to see him feel better. What a gift. What a wonderful thing. I get to see him get back to his life. I get to see his kids keep him for the rest of his," Wright said.
Beatrice said Wright's generosity and selflessness has been humbling.
"I don't have a choice in the matter. But she does have a choice. That's the amazing part," he said.
"That's life. If we don't take risks in life and make the tough choices, you'll regret it," she said.

Zac Brown's Drummer Won't Play Upside Down
Yes, the Zac Brown Band will be playing stadiums when they open some dates for Kenny Chesney in 2013.
But don't expect the guys to do anything too crazy during that tour, ZBB drummer Chris Fryar tells his hometown newspaper, The Birmingham [Ala.] News.
No Mötley Crüe antics for Chris or the band, and that means, most importantly, no pyro.
"It adds a whole level of responsibility," Chris said.
Also, no upside-down drumming, à la Tommy Lee.
"I think that stuff is really, really cool," he said, laughing. "But everything has to be strapped down. I'd be scared all the ChapStick and pocket change would fall out of my pockets."

Guggenheim Museum 390.
(photo credit:Wikimedia Commons)
Abu Dhabi's resurrection of its three-museum project to promote the emirate as a go-to tourist destination will give a boost to its beleaguered local economy. But the presence of local outlets of the Guggenheim and Louvre museums also highlights the prickly issue of what role Western cultural institutions should play in a Muslim country.In a surprise move, Abu Dhabi's Executive Council brought back to life plans to complete the Zayed National Museum, Guggenheim Abu Dhabi and Louvre Abu Dhabi – three massive repositories of art and culture slated for Saadiyat Island and aimed at making the tiny Gulf state a world-class cultural center. The much-anticipated maritime museum and performing arts center remain in limbo, but the Zayed national museum is tentatively set to open in 2015, with the Louvre following a year later and the Guggenheim in 2017. Guggenheim Abu Dhabi will join the foundation's branch museums in New York, Venice, Berlin, Bilbao and Las Vegas.The three museums' future looked in doubt after the 2008-2009 global recession scuttled $30 billion worth of building projects in the emirate. Housing prices in Abu Dhabi fell by 45%, while in Dubai – the emirate next door whose breakneck development has served as both an inspiration and a warning for Abu Dhabi – the property market plummeted 65%. Their size alone is enough for the three museums to have a major impact on the country that is hosting them. At 260,000 square feet (24,000 square meters), Abu Dhabi's Jean Nouvel-designed Louvre will be 40% of the size of the Paris original, whose collection took centuries to build. The 300,000-square-foot Guggenheim, designed by architect Frank Gehry, will be the largest of the institution's international network of museums. All this to serve a country covering 26,000 square miles of mostly desert with an indigenous population of 928,360 people.Mo'ath Hussein, an economic consultant in Abu Dhabi, told The Media Line that he is confident that the museum projects will give an important boost to the region's economy. The museum complex will cost $27 billion to build and will anchor a complex of golf courses, luxury hotels, and a park and theater, that will continue to bring in tourist dollars years after the construction jobs cease contributing to employment."The museums will provide an opportunity to all in the region to have easy access to that type of art," Hussein said. "Not many art lovers can afford trips to Europe."Critics, however, say the initial economic benefit will be minimal. Foreign architects, construction companies and South Asian labor will perform the lion's share of the work and take home the economic rewards, they argue. More importantly, there appears to be little evidence to suggest that the museums will help develop a strong cultural identity among Emiratis or bring about an efflorescence of local art. Vali Nasr, professor of international politics at the Fletcher School of Law and Diplomacy at Tufts University in Massachusetts, told The Media Line that the United Arab Emirates (UAE), the seven-member federation to which Abu Dhabi belongs, is buying international prestige with the museums projects. But, he said, it is failing to invest in the culture of the region and serve the needs of the local population."The problem is that cultural centers are not developed," said Nasr, who is also a senior fellow of foreign policy at the Brookings Institution. "The local culture is very wealthy but not mature enough to engage in an arts culture. Dubai, for example, has its film festival but it does not have a local film industry. American institutions are being grafted into a society that does not have the infrastructure to promote local culture."Nasr likened the UAE's eagerness to build big name museums to the alleged efforts last year by King Saud and King Abdulaziz Universities in Saudi Arabia to offer cash to well-known Western academics if they cited the Saudi institutions as a second affiliation in their research papers. The Saudis sought to acquire scientific prestige just as the Emiratis are trying to buy cultural prestige - quickly and easily without investing the time in developing human talent.The projects would create a "massive gulf" between Emiratis and the institutions, according to Nasr. Bridging that gulf depends on whether museum officials and Abu Dhabi leaders can agree on outreach programs to stimulate the region's largely ignored arts community.Hussein, the economics consultant, said he expects the Guggenheim Abu Dhabi to follow the strategy of the Guggenheim in Bilbao, Spain, which has a center for Arab and Islamic art. "The Guggenheim comes from Spain where every step you make in Spain has a trace of Islamic and Arabic art," he said.The Guggenheim Foundation brought in Reem Fadda, a Ramallah-based art historian and former director of the Palestinian Association of Contemporary Art, as the associate curator of Middle Eastern Art. She is charged with organizing contemporary Arab art exhibitions and participating in regional cultural events for the Abu Dhabi branch.Fadda declined to comment and Eleanor R. Goldhar, deputy director and chief of Global Communications for the Solomon R. Guggenheim Foundation, refused to disclose the foundation's regional strategy."A museum of this size and scope takes a great deal of intellectual investigation and investment, and time, to create," Goldhar told The Media Line. "Speaking about it before we are ready is just foolish."Unlike Guggenheim Bilbao, which exhibits Western and Arab/Islamic art without controversy, the Guggenheim Abu Dhabi may find itself beset by controversy in a region where Islamic clerics can't agree on whether images of humans and animals are prohibited. Timothy Furnish, an Islamic geopolitical analyst and lecturer at MacDill Air Force Base's Joint Special Operations University, told The Media Line there is "no tradition in Islam of museums in the Western sense." He said conservative interpretations of Islam might affect the Guggenheim's relationship with the local community. Although the Quran itself does not prohibit artistic renderings, several hadiths – the deeds and sayings of the Prophet Muhammed – frown on visual human images, he said. Salafists, who practice what they regard as a pure form of Islam based on what the earliest Muslims did, have no doubts about the ban. "While the ostensible prohibition of art involving animal, human or prophetic figures is often overstated because the squeaky Salafist wheels always get the most journalistic grease, this idea has become a main current of Sunni Islamic – not just Salafist or Islamist – thought," Furnish said.Yet, the UAE may provide the best venue to test local community reaction. "If there is anywhere in the Arab-Muslim world that art could possible flourish, it might be in a more enlightened place like the UAE or one of the Gulf States," Furnish said. "But even there I have my doubts."The Guggenheim indicated early-on in the project that it does not intend to rock the religious boat. In 2006, then-director of the Guggenheim Foundation, Thomas Krens, told The Guardian that there were no plans to exhibit nudes or religious themes. "Our objective is not to be confrontational, but to be engaged in a cultural exchange," he told the British daily.However, the emirate's deputy chairman of tourism, Mubarak Al-Muhairi, told The New York Times in 2007 that there were no limits on religious themes or nudity. "In principle, there are no restrictions," he said. "But both sides will agree on what is shown."The Zayed National Museum will help fill the void of expressed Islamic themes if the Guggenheim and Louvre limit Arab and religious exhibits. The museum plans to offer exhibits on the Quran, the life of the Prophet and Islamic calligraphy.But for Western institutions to ignore Islamic art and exhibit it alongside contemporary Western artists might be a mistake. "Islamic conservatives only begin to make noise if Western culture makes inroads into local culture," Nasr observed. "That's not happening now. One possible benefit of the museum is attracting Muslims from the Muslim world. This would potentially impact the region, but the Guggenheim must touch a broader cross-section."Furnish suggested the museums might have an "intellectual responsibility" to ease religious-based cultural barriers with archaeological exhibits of the region's ancient history, but Salafists may object. "In the past, Salafists have said that should they ever come to power in Egypt, they would not just close the museums that glorify the age of jahaliya [the age of ignorance that preceded the coming of Islam], they would destroy the Sphinx and the Pyramids."Nasr pointed to Iran, which has a thriving arts culture that survived the 1979 Islamic Revolution, as a potential arts role model. "There was the Shah's art festival and film festival, and the Queen had the Museum of Contemporary Art in Tehran," he said. "There was resistance on moral grounds, but it served the local population and it was not for tourism. It made sense at the time because it reached out to the local population. Because of that, Iran has a healthy arts culture and world-class film industry."

Beyonce tops UK chart after Glastonbury boost
LONDON (Reuters) - U.S. singer Beyonce romped straight to the top of the British album charts on Sunday, helped by her headlining performance at last week's Glastonbury music festival, the Official Charts Company said.
Sales of the R&B star's new release "4" had received a timely boost from the exposure and acclaim she received after she brought the festival to a close last Sunday. It gives her a second solo UK number one album.
Adele was unchanged at number two with "21" and Lady Gaga slipped to third with "Born This Way".
Take That dropped a place to fourth with "Progress" with another Adele album "19" in fifth.
Beyonce's Glastonbury appearance was not enough, however, to bring success in the singles chart, with the second release from her chart-topping album "Best Thing I Never Had" debuting in third.
Multi-platinum R&B singer and songwriter Jason Derulo stayed at number one with "Don't Wanna Go Home" with Example's "Changed The Way You Kiss Me" in second spot.

Dear Sen. Paul,
Nov 2014
Political leverage! Libertarian Party candidates have it in 2014 — IF YOU VOTE Libertarian.
Why? Unlike the Democratic and Republican candidates, our Libertarian Party candidates for public office have one rock-solid issue — and a clear, powerful message.
Our rock-solid issue: To dramatically expand and advance individual liberty in America.
Oct 2014
Today, Libertarian National Committee Chair Nicholas Sarwark released the following statement:
Libertarians offer the following prediction, which is 100 percent guaranteed to be accurate with zero statistical probability of error:

Sep 2014
A federal constitutional lawsuit, filed today against Kentucky Educational Television in U.S. District Court for the Eastern District of Kentucky, stems from its new exclusionary policy regarding public debates, eliminating Libertarian participation. The plaintiffs in the case are Libertarian David Patterson's campaign for U.S. Senate, the Libertarian Party of Kentucky, and the Libertarian National Committee.
Sep 2014
President Barack Obama has taken the United States to war, now in Syria and Iraq, in violation of the U.S. Constitution — just as he did in Libya in 2011.
"Whatever differences they may claim, Democratic and Republican politicians are aligned when it comes to foreign meddling," said Nicholas Sarwark, chair of the Libertarian National Committee. "President Barack Obama and former President George W. Bush both resort to war in the end."

LXQt 0.8 Is Being Released Soon
Published on 19 August 2014 05:25 PM EDT

Michael Larabel
11 Comments
Fans of LXQt, the merge of the Qt version of LXDE along with the Razor-qt desktop project, will soon see out a big update.
LXQt 0.8.0 is being readied for release as the latest of this next-generation lightweight desktop environment. Heavy development continues on LXQt and recently the most important bugs have been addressed for the upcoming LXQt 0.8 milestone. Holding back the LXQt 0.8 release is finishing the language translations and figuring out what to do about their RandR utility.
utility for changing display/monitor settings has some "weird bugs" that the developers don't know how to fix, which would be a problem for anyone wanting to use LXQt in a multi-monitor configuration, carry out presentations from a laptop, or do other screen configurations for options exposed via X.Org's Resize and Rotate extension. As an alternative for this next release until developers can figure out how to fix
would be using the less feature-packed
tool in its place, which was ported from LXDE and is still working.
More details on the LXQt 0.8 planning can be found via the
LXDE mailing list
. Potential LXQt users wanting to brief themselves on the Qt5 desktop environment can learn more at

Hello! I used the Built By Wendy Dresses, dirndl pattern. I added the the Peter Pan collar to give it some softness. If I were to make this top again, I would make a slight change to how I sewed the darts in the front. Other than that, I'm excited to make it again in bright summery prints.

Shaler North Hills Library recognized for service
The Shaler North Hills Library staff is dedicated to living out its motto "Books … And so much more," and it is the "so much more" that has earned the library national recognition.
The Institute of Museum and Library Services awarded the Shaler Township library with the 2012 National Medal for Museum and Library Service yesterday, Nov. 14, in Washington D.C., for its services to the community.
The National Medal for Museum and Library Service is the highest honor given to libraries and museums. Shaler North Hills Library is one of 10 recipients from across the nation of this year's award.
"We are very proud to include Shaler North Hills Library among this year's National Medal for Museum and Library Service winners," said Susan Hildreth, director, Institute of Museum and Library Services.
"Shaler North Hills Library has a proactive approach to providing community service.
Members of the library staff are just as likely to be out in the community working as they are to be within the library building. When they see a need ... they try to find a solution."
Over the years, Shaler North Hills Library staff has worked to transform the building from a place to borrow books to the "central hub of the community," said Sharon McRae, library director.
"We're not quiet at all," said McRae with a laugh. "You see a place that's doing well and thriving."
Patrons of all ages stream in and out of its doors for interactive story times, computer classes, art programs or a good book.
Last year, more than 50,500 people attended library programs throughout the year, and to date, program attendance has increased by 10 percent this year.
"This is why it's so special," McRae said of the award. "The community has responded so much to what we do; it's really a community award."
About four years ago, the library staff saw the circulation and attendance numbers leveling and made a conscious effort to get out into the community to see what resources and programs were needed and wanted.
The library added a community outreach position and worked to get programs and services to people in the community.
Today, the library offers everything from art education programs for children to game nights for teens and Tai Chi classes for adults and everything in between.
It is a designated Family Place Library dedicated to early literacy programming, and staff takes its anti-bullying puppet show to community groups, provides reading programs for preschools and day care centers and delivers material collections to senior citizen sites.
"I'm proud of our logo 'Books … And so much more,'" McRae said. "I think we're living up to that. It's not just lip-service."
Sandra Devonshire, of Shaler, said she views the library as her "second home." She had worked at the circulation desk in the past, and today she brings her grandchildren to the library programs.
So, when she saw information at the Library of Congress National Book Festival on the award, she picked up a nomination application.
"When I looked at the criteria, I thought Shaler North Hills Library certainly fits the profile of a great library," Devonshire said. "They work hard, and they're a lovely group of people, and their contributions to the community certainly deserve to be rewarded."
In 2010, the library lost $85,000 in state and county funding, however; the library staff has learned to do more with less by focusing on the needs of the community.
"What makes me proud is we did step up and not back," McRae said. "It would have been really easy to cut back … but as a staff we really thought differently."
McRae said in addition to the library patrons, the library board, township officials and library volunteers are at the heart of the library's success. The library staff hopes to celebrate with the community that made the award possible on Saturday, Nov. 17, at the township's Holiday "Lite" Up Night celebration during which the library will be open and have a number of related activities available for community members.
"This is a very hard working staff. They are very dedicated to serving this community, but it's a community award," she said. "They built this library … it's a success because of their commitment."

Alice Von Hildebrand on Feminism and Femininity Comments

Terri, your hysteria doesn't help your case, nor do your ad hominem attacks against AVH. Because you've conformed yourself to the world, you have no understanding of AVH's words. Utterly common, and infinitely tragic.

I have a tremendous respect for Dr. Alice Von Hildebrand. She has the courage to lead women, who have lost the way, as she so eloquently and clearly explains by falling prey to the lies of our times. She clearly points to the fact that the only 'liberated' Woman is Mary, the Mother of God because She is the only one that is body and soul in Heaven. If we wish to be free, we must imitate her humility and her purity. In these two virtues, women will find their rightful place. As Fulton Sheen said, the level of any civilization is the level of it's womanhood. In the end, it is not a matter of superiority or inferiority- it is a matter of difference of function and role. We should look to Dr. Von Hildebrand who obviously has long pondered the right role of women using Mary as the model.
6 years ago
This is complete nonsense!! If Hildebrand feels this way, why did SHE get a doctorate?? She apparently does not use it to think logically or realistically and that is VERY apparent in her closed-mindedness. There is nothing as patriarchal and anti-woman as religion (including but not unique to Catholicism)--I was raised a Catholic and educated in the Catholic school system (through college). Ironically, it was that education that opened my mind to the abuse women have suffered under men (and under the church) for thousands of years. Mary--herself abused (without a voice--left as a figure of suffering and loss)---was all that women were given by the church. Excuse me now.. I have to go read a real HUMAN author... Shakespeare. His female characters can truly teach the world something!! Dr. Hildebrand should use her education to escape from the madness of superstition and fanaticism and HELP women rather than encouraging them to accept this... myth.

Will make your stomache aile generic is not really the of version of norco/ vicodin you wanna take mallinkro usually is the maker for these type of pills they have been having bad reviews lately so next time you pick up your script go with walgreens,cvs or h-e-b they have the yellow 10's these work best on a 10 to 1 scale its a 10. Hope this helped.
