text: Mercedes: We learned a great deal more about the car 30 January, 2014 Lewis Hamilton – Mercedes W05 Mercedes AMG Petronas continued its pre-season testing programme at the Circuito de Jerez earlier today, with Lewis Hamilton taking the wheel of the F1 W05 for the third day of running in Spain. The team completed good mileage during the morning before a transmission issue curtailed running in the afternoon. Lewis's best time of 1:23.952 from 62 laps was good enough for third position on the time sheets, and second in the lap count behind the combined total of McLaren-Mercedes pairing Jenson Button and Kevin Magnussen. Lewis emerged for his first run a matter of minutes after the green flag, completing 45 laps in the morning. After two runs of medium length during the afternoon, a transmission issue brought the team's day to an early conclusion with a total of 62 laps on the board. Mercedes-Benz Power Units today completed a total of 965 km between all teams. Mercedes AMG Petronas has so far completed 783 km at the Circuit de Jerez, with one day of the test remaining. Nico will be in the car tomorrow for the fourth and final day of the opening pre-season test at Jerez. Lewis Hamilton: At the moment we're definitely happy. We've shown the strength within this team through all the hard work that's gone into getting the car here, bouncing back from the issue on Tuesday and then going out there and following up 97 [the] laps [of] yesterday with a further 62 today; it's a huge accomplishment for everyone involved. Proving reliability at this stage is crucial and every lap is precious, as this is going to be a seriously challenging year for every team. I'm feeling very positive after these tests and every day on track is another step forwards, but there are so many challenges ahead of us in the coming weeks and months that we just have to take those steps one at a time. Paddy Lowe: It was good to get Lewis back in the car today for his first real opportunity to drive some good laps and explore the performance of the W05. We made a relatively strong start to the day and completed two medium length runs before lunch. We began running again at around 14:30, completing a couple more runs before a transmission issue brought our day to an early close. Nevertheless, we achieved reasonable mileage overall with a total of 62 laps and learned a great deal more about the car. The target for tomorrow will be to continue making progress in our understanding of the car and put more miles on what is still a very new technical package. (Mercedes) Subbed by AJN.

I agree. After upgrading the firmware to 2.18 (the bridge had been working, sort of), my bridge can't be accessed for setup either through the router or through the setup wizard. This is after resetting/unplugging it 20+ times, and temporarily setting the computer's IP as necessary.
So it's essentially a paperweight at this point.
Strangely enough after painstaking research... (no thanks to Linksys)
I found a solution to my upgrade "brick/boat anchor/paperweight" problem
by using the PC driver for the Sirocco by Sondigo.
http://www.sondigo.com/sirocco/updateguide.. the beta driver and PC sw has solved my upgraded 'useless' box problem.
I would have preferred to use a Linksys solution but they provided no help to me
at all. shame on them. It's too bad because overall I think the product has been quite good.
happy christmas....

I upgraded firmware to v2.18 and have the the latest PC software utility version 1.3. after about 2 hours of dealing with tech support crap. My device is working like a charm.
-Make sure your firewalls are disabled, this caused my problem.
-Make sure you know the IP of the device, if you cant see it with the software, are you able to see it via HTTP. If you dont know what this means, hire an IT professional.
-the older utility version does not work with the new firmware. update software too.
-start wired and then work to going wireless.
if you still have questions, private message me.
Hope you have fun!!!

Please explain, cyberhazard. I tried going to the website and I am lost. Are you saying you "upgraded" the firmware of your wmb54g with a sirocco firmware? I downloaded it but I am not sure I follow and I want to make sure before I really brick this thing.
I have windows vista sp2. I have upgraded to firmware v2.18 and Utility version 1.3. I got it to connect once, then rebooted the pc and and now I cannot find the music bridge. I can access the music bridge without problems wirelessly via the web browser. Any help would be appreciated. I have read all threads and my eyes are burning and I can't find a solution.
I had exact same behavior after upgrade to 2.18 and corresponding PC utility.
My fix that has worked is to now use the Siricco PC Utility instead of the linksys.
The UI has more stuff than Linksys, but it is more techie stuff, and not necessarily needed.
i wish you good luck. I simply uninstalled the Linksys PC Utility and installed the Siricco and then mostly it's been working perfectly. sometimes I have to 'disconnect' then 'reconnect' to the music bridge one extra time (not sure what is happening), but that always then has it working smoothly.

While various cafe workers stress plus sweat in anticipation of an imminent job-related performance review, staff at Applebee's in Westland have implemented an entirely different mindset toward the employment evaluation process. It is due in no little piece to the fact that the head, Lisa Blanco, rewards superior staff performance the aged fashion option.
"We have the lowest turnover rate in the business," said Blanco, beaming. "I'm pleased the truth that whenever I get an employee, I recognize how to keep that staff happy plus successful."
Blanco started this unusual follow together with her subordinates about five years ago, after being offered to administration plus immediately after her first husband died. This motivational technique is, nonetheless, profoundly ingrained in her nature, plus has served her fine in other areas, at other occasions in her life.
"When I had been a server with this, along with other, companies," said Blanco, "I loved my job, plus I was continuously seeking how to strengthen my tricks while generating the consumer happy. Hell, I remember learning this philosophy option back high school graduation. I learned there needed to be balance, it needed to be a win/win situation for everyone...I've always had high values plus integrity. I learned that to get what I need it merely made sense that I required to provide the customer what he desires, plus I knew I already gave above-average Maintenance. Now I required to provide above-average head."
Blanco's track record is good. Her shop outperforms virtually any Applebee's in Michigan -- plus is always in the top-five from all Applebee's in the country -- in sales, Maintenance, customer satisfaction, product quality, penmanship plus, for obvious factors, staff satisfaction. Additionally, her restaurant has maintained virtually the actual same staff for the last 3 years, fine past any earlier company records.
"Yeah, it took me a couple of yearsto begin recognize my staff," said Blanco, absently stroking an Applebee's write while looking reflectively into the distance. "Working in a busy cafe is a high-pressure experience. We are a melting pot of diverse personalities, functioning under usually stressful circumstances. You not recognize how somebody will behave.
"I learned their loves and dislikes, plus what inspired them to the point that they'd willingly provide me that something additional...that, whatever it's that arrives at that moment of truth when they've hit the point of maximum improved activity. Is it hot in here?"
Not that her staff are complaining. Several suggested to the corporate office that Blanco's strategy be implemented company-wide, plus due to those suggestions two senior corporate owners plan a visit to observe, plus possibly create recommendations, afterwards this month.
"It's wonderful timing," said Larry Ward, which was brought over by Blanco after functioning with her at another cafe. "I think many of us are up for review appropriate around the time those big-wigs are expected to be here. They reach see hands-on what offers you such a sturdy device. Sure, you go against nearly every modern axiom for manager/employee relations, however she took the single many important principle -- keeping your staff happy -- plus she does it much better than anybody else may ever dream."
Said Ward, "While everyone else wants outside the box, we're all hunting inside hers."

My research focuses on the role of sequencing technologies in diagnostic microbiology and public health. This follows a study demonstrating for the first time that whole genome sequencing of methicillin-resistant Staphylococcus aureus (MRSA) could define transmission pathways at both global and local levels. A UKCRC Translational Infection Research Initiative grant of 3.2M has funded the development of a Cambridge UKCRC Consortium to develop tools that interpret genome sequence and provide user-friendly web-based platforms for use by public health organizations, diagnostic laboratories and healthcare workers. This will be developed to study global, national and regional transmission pathways of major drug-resistant bacterial pathogens.

SIMMONS, BARTHOLOMEW (1804–1850), Irish poet, was born at Kilworth, co. Cork, in 1804, and entered the excise branch of the civil service in 1830. He first appeared as a poet in 'Bolster's Magazine,' 1826–8, and soon after began to contribute to 'Blackwood's Magazine.' There he printed his poem, 'Napoleon's Last Look,' which has found a place in several anthologies. Christopher North made eulogistic reference to his poetic gift in the 'Noctes Ambrosianæ.' Simmons contributed to several other periodicals, sometimes under the signature of 'Harold.' He died unmarried on 21 July 1850 at his lodgings in Acton Street, Gray's Inn Road, London.

Hi Ladies,
I'm mostly just a lurker, but I have asked a few questions on here and you ladies are wonderful!
I have another question for you and I'm not really sure how to handle it, and I'm hoping some of you have unfortunetly been through it before and can give me some advice on what I should do.
My DS is 2 and all he asked for from Santa was a football helmet. He gets so excited and just keeps saying Santa's going to bring me a football hemlet. It's adorable. 3 weeks ago when I dropped DS of his father's girlfriend told me that HER father had bought him a football helmet for Christmas. Ummmm ok?
I don't want to sound like a bit*h but I really hope that he doesn't give it to him before Christmas. That was the ONLY thing he asked for. And he is so excited about it. He is suppossed to be getting him on Saturday and I'm thinking of asking BD if he could ask his girlfriend's father to not give it to him til after Santa comes on Christmas.
I don't want to sound horrible but everytime he sees santa that's all he asks for. I want Santa to bring him his football helmet not BD's girlfriend's father.
Should I say something?
It depends on the relationship you and BD have. If you have a great relationship, maybe say "DS is really excited about getting a FB helmet from Santa, so would GF's father mind waiting until after Christmas to give it to him?" Honestly, though, this is about you, not DS. You want to see DS's reaction to getting the FB helmet from Santa, and him getting another one from someone else first may 'taint' that. I'm not flaming you here, just stating how you understandably feel. If you and BD don't have a good relationship, saying something may cause them to give the FB helmet earlier than they planned just to be spiteful. Just a thought.
If they give it to him they give it to him. I know you're excited about seeing DS get excited over the FB helmet, but you cannot control what BD does during his time. I definitely empathize that it is frustrating when the other parent does something first/better/etc. That's just how it is in BF.
You're 100% right. It really is about me seeing his reaction on Christmas morning. I'm just really excited and anxious for him to open it.
We have an OK relationship. We get along for DS and thats really it. Like you said I'm just worried they will give it to him out of spite because I said something.
I just really hope his dad would't take that suprise and fun away from his son. He's just getting to the age where he's starting to like Santa and get excited.
I think you need to talk to BF, without the drama.
In a blended family, you can't have everything. I know that hurts, but the bonus is that your son can have it all.
There were a couple semi-sane holiday/birthdays with BM when she was the hero gift giver and the boys liked her present better than the one from DH and me. It stung, especially when it was what I told her they would like, but the important thing was that the kids were happy.
There was also another Christmas when the boys were very young, DH did all the wrapping and labeled every last present from "Santa" so the boys didn't realize we had gotten them anything. I thought he was nuts, but DH didn't care. He just wanted them to have the presents.
Hopefully, you and BF can find some compromise. Will BF/gf be there Christmas morning? Can they give it to him then after the Santa-brought helmet? He can be excited to have two?
It sounds great for LO, though, since he can have a helmet at each home.
I doubt anyone was trying to do anything malicious or to overstep boundaries. It sounds like this is a lucky little boy who has a lot of people in his life who care about him and want to make him happy.Nineoceans:Yes. I would be furious. Actually the same thing just happened with us and SS. "Santa" is bringing him something he already got from my dumbss in laws just because they have no other way to connect to him except giving him any and everything he asks for for no reason at all.
Santas gift has been sitting wrapped for a month it's a movie he wanted to see but he's still getting it anyways.
I don't know how far this will get you but I would ask your ex to ask the father in law to return the helmet or choose another gift. The big gift should be given by one of the primary parents. Honestly shame on girlfriend and her dad for overstepping boundaries too
Rule 725 in BFs: You can ask anything of the other parent but it doesn't mean they will agree.
I understand it is important to you and I would ask BF if they can hold off to open that gift till after he opens at your home. Just remember if he says no you need to accept it. You son is very young so there is no shortage of excitement at that age. He will still flip out when he gets the helmet at your house.
Rule 402 in BFs: Find a way to discuss birthday/Christmas gifts while he is only 2 or it will be an issue twice a year for 16 more years.
GL! Your DS is going to be so cute and excited no matter what order the events happen.
BF will not be with him Christmas morning. Last I heard he said he wasn't getting done work til around 2.
I had already told him that Santa was bringing the helmet before her father went out and bought it. In our CO DS spends Christmas Eve wil me and wakes up Christmas morning with me, then goes to BF when he comes to get him.
I know that no matter what DS will have a great holiday
You ladies are fantastic, thank you so much!
kali55:Is it possible to be honest with BD and just say "It means a lot to me to be able to give my son this helmet and watch his reaction as he opens it first. I know you don't have to agree, but it would be wonderful if you could hold off giving him the helmet you got him in order for him to open the one 'Santa' got him first?"
If you do ask him to hold off, just understand this won't be the only time something similar like this will come up. What if your DS is really excited to go to his first baseball game and you find out your X has tickets, will you ask him to not bring him too? Your X is his dad too and will also want to enjoy moments with your son too.
I read your post on here and on the Single Parents board about this and I really don't think that they were doing anything malicious. They are giving your son the gift he really wanted, what is so wrong about that?
It's NOT from his father it is from his father's girlfriend's father. I had already told BF that "Santa" was bringing it for him on Christmas.
I am fine with them giving him a FB helmet as well, I just would like him to open the one from "Santa" first since that is the only thing he asked for.
I understand that it is his son too, but I had ALREADY told him Santa was bringing it a month before her dad bought his.
I doubt it was malicious. If your son kept repeating himself to you about wanting the football helmet, I bet he did the same thing at his father's.
Now, this is one of the things that get you pissed but you need to let go. Rty talking to your ex and see what happens but if he refuses to delay the present, its not something to be that upset about.
You child is only two so its pretty easy to tell him that Santa brought him to helmets, one for your place and one for his father's or your can get him something else.
DD really wanted a Doodle bear this year for Christmas. She is spending Christmas at her dad's and he already got her the Doodle bear. Does it suck that Im not the one giving it to her? Absolutely but I wont sweat it because she will get what she wanted.
Ladies thank you.
You all are 100% right. There is really nothing I can do about it so why get upset.
He will have a wonderful Christmas regardless.
Thank you for letting me know it is ok to be upset and mad about the whole situation but, in the end it is about me son not me.

Pretty tableaux, sexy situations, attractive actors, easy-to-read art-history content they make for pleasant eyewash in Artemisia, but there's a bizarre slant to this swoopy biographical drama from French director Agnes Merlet. In telling the story of (now) renowned 17th-century painter Artemisia Gentileschi (Valentina Cervi, suggesting an Italian Daphne Zuniga), the director has decided that, actual historical evidence to the contrary, the 17-year-old artist (famous for her masterpiece Judith Beheading Holofernes) was not so much raped by her libertine, much older, married teacher (Miki Manojlovic) as surprised by his passion, which she soon voluptuously returned. (The rape charge was brought by Artemisia's father, himself a painter with grudges to bear against rivals, including his own more talented daughter.)
Thus this romanticized bit of high-toned soft-core art-history lesson all lush landscapes and lusher bodies isn't to be trusted. Tragedy becomes Florentine ''Melrose Place.'' Daphne Zuniga would feel right at home.C-

Article one will link to content 2, 2 will connection to 3, 3 can Link to 4, four will connection to 5, 5 can link to 6, and also 6 will connection to 1. This particular final link closes the actual wheel. All content articles will also connection to the primary site.

Searching all around your residence will quickly and simply come up with a listing of prospective plumbing troubles. The kitchen faucet, the dishwasher, rest room toilet, shower, washing machine, and h2o heater all call for operating h2o to run easily or even operate whatsoever. Pipes among walls, under flooring and in ceilings transport the h2o and sewage in diverse directions. Stress in pipes is determined based on the width of the pipe and the types of valves employed.

Love this fixture! It showed up fast and in great shape. I have it on a dimmer switch and it looks like a lit peice of art at night.
This was purchased as a light for my master bedroom. I didn't get to put it together, instead, came home to my husband and his father putting it up for the second time. Evidently it was a chore to put together. However, it was very stunning and a bit larger than I expected. We have normal ceilings and this could definitely go in a house with 15 foot ceilings and still make an impact.
The chandelier looks good, when i received it there was a little bit of scratching caused just by folding it out of the packaging, It is painted so its a good thing this is an item that you should never really have to touch, The one thing that you cant see in the photo is that on the outside of every one of the lights right were the glass bell meets the metal is a sticker that tells you what watt of light bulb to use and you can't get them off with out making the light look worse. If i knew that now I would insist that they shipper remove the stickers before having it shipped. You cant see the stickers at night when the lights are on but during the day if your within 3 feet of it its very obvious.
Nice chandler, gives good light over dinning room table. Modern design, can put in eco friend bulbs and have them not be seen. Long chain can be swagged over if your table is not over hardwiring outlet. Just thought it was not as an exceptional deal as I have come to expect from Overstock.
Absolutely wild about this light. Have been looking for a stylish light to replace an OLD brass painted chandelier...yuck. This was the perfect solution. It is very light weight and looks amazing. It is inexpensive and worth every penny and then some. The color is true to the picture on line and it is a very sleek and updated look for a mid-to large room. With five 60 watt lights in it gives off an amazing amount of light.... just love it, would like to get another and probably will. Trust me if you get this light you wont regret it.... you will be very excited about this find.
Easy to put assemble and install. We have received many compliments.
Very happy with my purchase, this chandelier looks very contemporary, just what I was looking for.
My fault for not paying attention to the description! It is painted silver! Not chrome or steel. Since I had to spray paint other knick knacks on the dining room table they match! I suppose if it had been chrome I would have paid much more for it! So I do like the over all look and would recommend.
I find this chandelier to be a great contemporary edition in a dining room or bedroom.

Under the current economic situation, many homes have lost value and homeowners unable sell their homes to move up to bigger and better. As a result, homeowners often choose to upgrade the house to make their existing homes more comfortable and provide additional living space. One of the most cost effective options is to use a sliding patio doors and awnings for the home to create an open space or living space.
Awnings have long been popular in commercial buildings such as restaurants where they provide protection from sun and rain at the outdoor seating area. Awnings are attractive and functional for home use is now available. Best used in conjunction with sliding patio doors, they create an outdoor living area ideal for relaxing any time of day.
Sliding patio door offers an easy transition between indoor and outdoor living area while the awnings for home use extend beyond the living room wall. Home awnings protect people from rain and from the heat of the sun. Temperature in the shade of a tent can be about 20 degrees cooler than would be the case without a tent. Homeowners can also choose to filter from the outdoor space for protection from mosquitoes and other insects.
The mechanism and pulled open the awning can be operated manually or automatically. Manually operated awnings offer ease of installation and usually a lower cost while motorized awnings open or close easily with just a push of a button.
Many options are available for size, material, design, and color of awnings for home use. Homeowners can select dynamic stripes or other designs to make the awning light stand, or they can choose the color and materials to blend into the existing home decor, so awnings appear as a simple extension of the house. Sliding patio doors are available in various sizes and styles to fit any space and budget.
Most homeowners use awnings for home use in combination with sliding patio doors to create an outdoor living room and dining room but the awnings have other uses in residential settings. For homes without a garage awnings can be used to make a simple garage area. Whether you're designing an outdoor living space on the terrace of your house or extend protection to the awning workshop space for use at home can upgrade your home at a fraction of the cost of adding a traditional walled room or garage.

I have had a few e-mails asking where I have been so I thought I should check in. I can't believe it has been so long since I posted! Cleaning up after the huge storm this summer was a major set back for us. Our grand plans of moving onto the property before winter were dependent on making massive amounts of progress every remaining day of summer. And it just didn't happen! Two weeks without electricity meant spending most of day hauling water and trying to avoid heat stroke. And it was 3 weeks before power was restored at the farm. That meant no way to charge the drills, no way to run the saws, and no lights to see what we were doing even if we found a project o work on without power tools. It was a very frustrating month long set back. After the power was restored we had to face the reality that we could not get moved in by winter. There simply wasn't enough time left to run water lines, upgrade the electrical, rebuild the completely gutted kitchen and bath, install a woodburning stove, and split enough firewood to keep us warm through the winter.
So it was time to change our plans yet again! As we pondered whether or not we could still manage the move or even come up with the funds to do so, I received an unexpected phone call. Last school year I was on the substitute teacher call list for our county and took one day job assignments for preschool-12th grade classrooms. The phone call was from the county Board of Education and they were offering me a one year assignment as a math teacher at my old high school. After we talked about it as I family, we realized this would bring in the rest of the funds needed to finish remodeling the house. We could work on the house on the weekends through the fall and winter in the hopes of being moved in by the spring of 2013 and be on our way to living debt free in our own home! So, I spend 5 days a week teaching freshman math and 2 days a week stacking tires for the earthship, remodeling the farmhouse, and running the homestead. It was definitely an unexpected change to our daily routine but I absolutely love teaching! It has been a very rewarding experience and I'm so glad it all worked out like it did.
So that's why I haven't blogged in what seems like forever :) We haven't given up on our dreams of sustainable living but we have taken a slight detour. We have still managed to make some progress on the house in the last few months, but not much. We have the kitchen windows replaced and the walls are ready for cabinets at least.
And here's a little animal update. Twinkle the duck just hatched 2 little ducklings yesterday. I don't know how easy it will be to keep November ducklings alive but we're going to give it a try since she decided she needed to hatch some winter babies.
Much Love from the Farm,

Sir Nick Faldo, winner of six Majors including three Masters¨ Tournaments and three British Open titles, and more than 40 tournaments worldwide assumed the position of CBS SportsÕ lead golf analyst at the beginning of the 2007 golf season. He joined CBS Sports after three years as lead analyst for ABC SportsÕ golf coverage.
After rapidly becoming a very accomplished amateur and making a smooth transition to the professional ranks in 1976, Faldo played on the first of 11 European Ryder Cup teams in 1977 as a 20-year-old. Throughout the mid-1980s, Faldo was a force in European golf. In 1987 he achieved his first Major championship victory by winning the British Open at Muirfield. Faldo followed that with back-to-back Masters triumphs in 1989 and 1990, and then another British Open victory in 1990 at St. Andrews. In 1990 he became the first international player to win the PGA TOURÕs coveted ÒPlayer of the Year Award.Ó In 1992, Faldo won his third British Open title setting a 36-hole Major record with opening rounds of 66-64. Between 1993 and 1994, Faldo became the WorldÕs No. 1-ranked player for 81 consecutive weeks. And later in 1996, he won his third Masters title and sixth major beating Greg Norman by five strokes after trailing by six going into the final round.
Inducted into the World Golf Hall of Fame in 1997, Faldo captained the 2008 European Ryder Cup team. He holds the all-time Ryder Cup record for most appearances (11) and most points scored (25) and led the European Order of Merits on three occasions. He was a member of the first European side to defeat the U.S. in the Ryder Cup in 28 years in 1985. Two years later Faldo played a pivotal role as Europe retained the Cup, winning for the first time on American soil at Muirfield Village. He also was a member of the victorious 1995 and 1997 sides. FaldoÕs 30 European victories include three World Match Play Championships, a European Open, four PGA Championships and three successive Irish Opens. Throughout his career, he was a winner in such diverse locations as Hong Kong, Jamaica and Sun City in South Africa.
Through the creation of Faldo Enterprises, among his burgeoning business successes include Faldo Design, an international golf design business; the Faldo Series, a premier competition for young golfers; and Faldo Wine, a signature series of excellent wines. Faldo also serves as lead analyst for the Golf ChannelÕs early-round coverage of the PGA TOUR. Faldo was honored with Knighthood in June 2009, becoming only the second professional golfer to receive the honor. He also was awarded the MBE (Member of the British Empire) in 1988. Faldo was born on July 18, 1957 in Welwyn Garden City, England. He has four children and currently resides in Winter Park, Fla.

that is one sweet looking pussy. lets bring back bush ladies
Squirty Bertie June 19, 2011
Indians can be fairly pale if northern. Freddie Mercury was Indian, though apparently cunt was not his scene. Hear, hear. 'bk bandit'. As someone else on this site said, all legal pussies should be unshaved, without exception. The perfection of beauty is a framing of full cuntlips and prominent clit by bush above, bumcheeks below, and perhaps stocking-tops on either side. Frankly, I am sick of having to read the comments of shavists. Namaste, Yoni!

wow, that was touching. ^_^ that's nice.
Do you know what´s it like to be different?
not just little differences,
but noticeable ones
when ppl stare at you
n you know the exact reason
when you hear whispers
n you know its about you
when ppl tell you its OK to be different
but it really isn´t
they say they dont care
but deep inside they do
when everything that happens to you
gets related to that
when you know that that difference
is going to haunt you the entire life
n no matter how good u are inside
the outside is what ppl see first
when ppl you thought were friends
walk out of ur life forever
n when ppl reject you
you cant help to know why
cuz maybe you already know
when u try to deal with it
but it has become a part of you
you´ll always be remembered like that
not what you are, not what you feel
but by that you fought
nothin else to say . . .
wow, that was touching. ^_^ that's nice.
that was really nice, it was well written and neat, keep it up.
jus a soical outcast for wut u look like n wut u're born with........it is a diffcult thing to deal with but u somehow go on ignoring them n getting on with ur own life......nice one...keep it up
Thanks for the siggy Ky-lyrra
I feel you... I like this poem because I can relate...

Later, John and Dorian find a stash of the drug -- which is made from a rare algae and goes by the name The Bends -- in Cooper's car. (Presumably the name comes from the sickness one gets from deep sea diving and not the Radiohead album of the same name.) Det. Paul (Michael Irby) immediately jumps to the conclusion that Cooper is dirty, because rash jumps to conclusion are his main personality trait so far. But John knew Cooper, and believes he was deep undercover. You know, because of the wire inside his tummy and all.
Back at the precinct, Captain Maldonado (Lili Taylor) is meeting with Alexio Barros, head of the narcotics division at Cooper's precinct. Barros reveals that Cooper was a good cop, but he was a "dog with a bone" who had gone rogue in his quest to prevent The Bends from hitting the streets. Maldonado says she knows the type, and we cut to John as if there was any doubt as to which refuses-to-play-by-the-book member of her squad she was referring to. (Hint: It's not Minka Kelly.) John and Dorian meet with Cooper's wife, who remembers that he went to his family cabin right before he died.
While investigating the cabin, John finds the recorder that Cooper's wire was transmitting to. Back at the precinct, the team listens to the botched deal and Maldonado reveals that vice has been after The Bishop for over a decade but nobody can get close to him. Valerie (Minka Kelly) thinks The Bishop is looking to mass produce the highly addictive Bends and create an epidemic. Cut to some teens tweaking out on the stuff and turning green, which is way grosser than junkies injecting "Nuke" into their necks in RoboCop 2. John offers to pose as a cook in order to score a meeting with The Bishop. (Maldonado: "You can't cook ramen!" Seriously, John needs to vary his diet a smidge.) Maldonado thinks John is getting too close to the case, and wants to hand it over to Narcotics. But then John suggests the perfect team member to pose as a skeezy designer drug cook -- Rudy.

Eddie Stobart's Ashley Maddocks and Dave Pickerill took part in a charity skydive for Roald Dahl's Marvellous Children's Charity yesterday
Eddie Stobart truck drivers and stars of Channel Five's Eddie Stobart: Trucks & Trailers Ashley Maddocks and Dave Pickerill took part in a charity skydiving day yesterday to raise funds for Roald Dahl's Marvellous Children's Charity.
A team of Stobart employees, drivers and fans jumped from the Parachuting Black Knights Parachute Centre in Cockerham, Lancashire, to raise thousands of pounds for Roald Dahl's Marvellous Children's Charity. The daredevil fundraisers even opted to jump from an altitude of 15,000 feet, the highest tandem skydive offered in the UK.
Emma Jeans, event fundraiser for Roald Dahl's Marvellous Children's Charity said: "Leaping from a plane on a tandem skydive is the ultimate adrenalin experience, and a marvellous way to raise funds for charity. It was a day to remember for everyone who took part, and their friends and families who came to cheer them on."
Roald Dahl's Marvellous Children's Charity makes life better in many ways including through Roald Dahl children's nurses, family hardship grants and research. The charity has strong links with the north-west, including setting up five Roald Dahl children's nurses, and last year helping 35 families caring for a seriously ill child living in hardship, through their family grants programme.
If you feel inspired to do your own jump to help seriously ill children why don't you take part in our Oompa-Loompa Skydive on 13 September 2014?

I presented yesterday at a conference called SEMpdx, which is a search conference in Portland. My presentation was on "Mobile Marketing Strategies & Tactics." Reid Spice of iCrossing was my co-presenter. Prior to the session we had an informal discussion about mobile search, CPC pricing and "inadvertent clicks" on mobile ads. The latter was tied to a survey that got fairly wide (and uncritical) attention at the end of last month. The survey was sponsored by mobile lead-generation company Pontiflex and conducted by Harris (in December, 2010).
There were a wide range of findings from the survey, which was conducted either twice or in two parts and had more than 4,000 total responses from US adults. The survey asked a number of questions about apps, advertising and mobile user behavior. However the big headline and finding that got all the attention was "47 percent of mobile app users say they click/tap on mobile ads more often by mistake than they do on purpose."
Other survey findings included the following:
The press release pulled out a piece of segmented data that is even more pronounced: "61 percent of mobile apps users ages 18-34 click/tap on mobile ads by accident more often than on purpose." The "message" conveyed by these findings is that people frequently click ads by mistake and so clicks are a false metric and unreliable as a measure of the efficacy of mobile advertising. Let me say that I absolutely agree with that statement; clicks are a false metric that mobile marketers should walk away from.
However there are a couple of problems here. Self-reported data and "behavioral data" are often inconsistent. In other words, what people say they do and what they actually do may not always line up. So as a fundamental matter we don't know whether people are in fact clicking by mistake more often than not. And we don't have a "control" or baseline metric for the PC to compare it against. It could well be that there's a high incidence of mistaken clicks online.
As an aside the audiences that click display ads online are "a small, unrepresentative portion of the total online population." According to comScore (2009), "4% of Internet users account for 67% of all display ad clicks." Thus clicks are a really bad metric for the efficacy of display ads on the PC. Yet lazy marketers still use CTR as a measure of ad effectiveness.
Most of the coverage of the Pontiflex survey turned into a kind of "telephone" game that ultimately distorted what the publicly released data said. The coverage, and especially the secondary coverage based on the first stories, turned into: "half of all mobile clicks are inadvertent."
In fact we don't have any sense of what percentage of mobile clicks, according to this survey, may be "bad." We know that 47% of these survey respondents think (key word) that more of their clicks than not are unintentional. It could be. But I'm surprised that nobody who covered this was critical or sought to drill into the data for more information.
I don't disagree with the argument that Pontiflex makes about engagement, lead capture and other KPIs being better vs. clicks. And if these Pontiflex data are supported by other findings from others we could see marketers make a push toward CPA (publishers prefer CPM of course). Networks like OfferMobi are also pushing CPA as a better mobile metric too. One might argue that mobile is better suited to CPA than online in many respects because mobile user behavior is more "action-oriented" than PC user behavior.
If CPA does become the standard in mobile display -- we'll probably see a mix of models however -- that, in turn, might influence online advertisers as well to demand or gravitate toward CPA. Search marketing, whether online or in mobile, will largely remain CTR-based however.

WASHINGTON – U.S. Rep. Ron Barber today questioned U.S. Army leaders on the president's proposed budget and spoke to the global importance of Fort Huachuca, the largest employer in Cochise County and in Southern Arizona.
Barber, a member of the House Armed Services Committee, today directed questions about the fort's future missions to John McHugh, secretary of the Army, and Gen. Raymond T. Odierno, Army chief of staff.
Both appeared before the committee to discuss the Army's budget plans which calls for a reduction in the number of active-duty soldiers from 522,000 today to between 450,000 and 440,000.
In a question to McHugh, Barber asked about the future of the 300-acre Electronic Proving Ground at Fort Huachuca, which Barber noted "has capabilities and assets that simply can't be matched anywhere in the country." Barber previously has drawn the Army's attention to the fort's clean electromagnetic spectrum, making it an ideal place to test electronic equipment.
On March 4, Barber joined Senators McCain and Flake to send a letter to McHugh to once again demand answers about rumors that the Army Test Evaluation Command is considering consolidating testing capabilities across the nation – a possibility that could undercut a main mission of the fort.
In the hearing, Barber took the opportunity to follow-up, saying, "This is a critical issue for my district and our national security. Mr. Secretary, when can we expect a response?"
Video of the exchange with McHugh can be seen by clicking on the image below:
Barber also questioned Odierno about the personnel who carry out electronic testing at Fort Huachuca and whether the Army could afford to lose their knowledge and expertise, saying "Any reduction to personnel at Fort Huachuca will put these missions at risk," Barber told Odierno.
Barber has been an aggressive protector of Fort Huachuca since he came to Congress. Last year, he brought Undersecretary of the Army Dr. Joseph W. Westphal to Southern Arizona for a two-day tour of Fort Huachuca and defense contractors.
In addition to hearing from members of the military at the fort, Barber and Westphal met with the Fort Huachuca 50, an organization dedicated to protecting and supporting the mission and the personnel of the fort.
Fort Huachuca is home to the U.S. Army Intelligence Center and the U.S. Army Network Enterprise Technology Command (NETCOM)/9th Army Signal Command. The fort is also the headquarters of Army Military Affiliate Radio System (MARS), the Joint Interoperability Test Command (JITC) and the Electronic Proving Ground (EPG). Libby Army Airfield is located on post and shares the runway with Sierra Vista Municipal Airport.
Today was the second time in less than two weeks that Barber has strongly pushed back on Pentagon budget proposals that could harm Southern Arizona military installations.
Earlier this month, Barber demanded that top Air Force officials explain how they will protect ground troops without the A-10, which they have proposed retiring.
"The path we are on is a very grave problem and a danger to our troops and our security," Barber said at that time. "What's the plan when there's no other airframe that can perform these capabilities? I'm going to keep pushing the Air Force and fighting for the A-10."

There is a significant difference between the USDA beef grading system and the Japanese grading system. The current USDA beef grading system doesn't even have classifications for beef with highly abundant marbling, like the types produced by Wagyu cattle. The American Wagyu Association is however in the process of setting standards for the USDA to use when grading Wagyu beef.
The Japanese system has 5 quality grades which are based on marbling, yield, meat color, firmness & texture and fat quality. 1 = Poor, 2 = Below Average, 3 = Average, 4 = Good and 5 = Excellent
The lowest score for each attribute is used to determine the overall quality grade. Please refer to the chart below for a comparison of USDA, Japanese quality grades and BMS numbers.
Japanese & USDA Beef Marbling Grade Comparison Chart
Quality Grade
Quality Grade
Extremely Abundant 50+
Extremely Abundant 0-49
*There are no official grades above Abundant in the USDA grading specifications. The terms Very Abundant and Extremely Abundant are arbitrary. Source: J.R. Busboom and J.J. Reeves - Washington State University.

Saying Goodbye?
Tibet is changing very fast, in a way that is effectively erasing the past. There was a beautiful article in the New York Times last year about the changes, with many photos. It seems that there may soon be no real Tibet to free.
