NAME: i call it a TAS 'EM launcher for lack of a better name...from the purpose of the vortex rounds
i was thinking of a launcher that is muzzel loading, just to keep things simple.
i hate the way you have to buy four different things to use the RAP4 style munitions (charger adapters etc)
but i dont want to work a whole poppit or spoolie valve system, bolt and all that. think it'd be simplier for it to work on the same concept as a spud gun, fill the barrel air tight, hit it from behind with a massive amount of expanding gases and pressure. so the barrel will have to be made with an inner diameter smaller then a vortex's outer diameter,not by tht much just enough to compress it slightly, so as to form a seal as it trys to expand.
then id have a chamber behind it, leading directly to the ASA, seperated from the barrel by a pnuematic or electric, or some automatic valve, triggered to open for maybe from 0.45 all the way to a whole second when the trigger is pulled, whatever is needed. so a basic electrical system would be required, but it beats designing a new bolt and having a huge valve system.
please tell me what you all think of the concept

If you've ever thought that it's too late to do something you've always wanted to- let this story be an inspiration to change your mind. With no formal art training, Vivi Mac is now a freelance artist. She has used blogs and Facebook to teach herself how to create portraits on paper and has now translated her knowledge to unique mediums of painting. Using a straw and liquids like milk, caramel sauce, and rum she has cleverly created celebrity portraits speed paintings. Appropriately titled Art Ephemere for their brief, transitory nature (since most are food items), her paintings are shockingly easy to recognize. [Read more…]
Speed Painter Makes Painting in Minute and a Half
If you have a minute and a half, you should check out this video of artist D. Westry speed painting. As part of the Anderson Cooper talent show, he completed a painting in 90 seconds and the video of him doing so is now going viral. [Read more…]

CORPUS CHRISTI - Half a dozen protesters stood outside State Representative Abel Herrero's office this afternoon to voice their opposition to House Bill 2.
The Texas House of Representatives is expected to vote today on the bill that would restrict abortions in the state. It would restrict abortions after 20 weeks of pregnancy and require all abortions to be performed in a surgical center.
The group who stood outside the State Representative's office say Herrero has turned his back on women and they are demanding he vote against the bill. One protestor Lisa Hernandez says "A vote in support of House Bill 2 means that women in Texas are property. The men in Texas, the lawmakers get to decide what i should be making with my doctor in the privacy of my home but Texas lawmakers, Rick Perry and Abel Herrero included think they know more and they don't trust me to make decisions about my own body. So, i might as well be property of Abel Herrero."
Hernandez is encouraging all opponents of House Bill 2 to contact State Representative Abel Herrero's office before it's too late.

I am currently a college student. We are in a position right now where Monster is in daycare, comfortably, which means that I can pursue the goals that I want/need to pursue. So I've been looking for a job. Something either locally (hah) or within the nearest 20-40 miles. I don't mind a bit of a commute. So I've been scouring job listings for two weeks straight now. Looking and applying for everything I qualify for. I don't care what it is, as long as I qualify, I'm applying. I know I can do a good job. I know that I'm a very good candidate for the jobs that I'm applying for. The thing that gets me though.. is some of these jobs would be perfect for those out of work locally. Things as simple as secretarial work, filing, etc. But the problem is that a lot of these places require ten years of experience. Now, I understand they want someone who can do the job and do it right the first time. But for a small business firm requiring ten years of filing experience and secretarial experience? Even if I've been working from the day I turned 16, I wouldn't have ten years of experience! In this economy, can we really afford to be that picky with our employee candidates? -sighs-
Who else here is a clutz? Just me? Nah, it can't be just me. Or else they wouldn't have stores with entire sections devoted to fall protection and helping make sure you don't break yourself in half if you do fall down, especially on the job. I swear, I am the guiltiest clutz ever. I run into walls for goodness sake. I'm glad I'm going into a line of work, once I get my degree, where I don't have to worry about falling down or falling off of things. It won't really affect the animation. Well, the worst it can do is give writers a good story to tell!
Respiratory Guard Lozenges
I received the Respiratory Guard's lozenge to review. The first thing I noticed the other day when I got them and opened them up was that the darn things were hard to open. I had to get a knife and pop open the packaging that the lozenge was in. The smell was strange. Kind of a blueberry pancake mixed with something else smell. But not enough to deter me.
The moment it was in my mouth though, it tasted like… blueberry and old coffee filter. Do you know when you're making coffee, that smell from the coffee filter? It's like that smell, but in your mouth. It's not terrible, but it's not good either. And when I'm taking a daily supplement, I'd like it to taste good at least. I let it melt in my mouth, as the package said to either chew it up or let it dissolve.
Now, I only took two for the first day. The taste alone was enough to just make me go get Monster's flinstone vitamins instead. If it does what it says it's supposed to do, it'll be great. But I just don't know how many people will be able to get past the taste.
They wouldn't be a replacement for the flu vaccines, but they'd be useful in their own little way, maybe in conjuction with the vaccines. All in all, I don't think they're terrible but the taste needs major improvement before I keep putting that in my mouth.
This review is a result of a feedback campaign by Respiratory Guard. The recipients were asked to give their honest opinion about the product they received. Good reviews were not incentivized and poor reviews will not be censored for their opinion of the product.
Dentek Custom Comfort Nightguard Review
Because I have a bad habit of gritting my teeth when I'm sleeping, I signed up to review a dental mouth guard from DenTek Oral Care, Inc. They sent me the mouth guard, and I made the below video explaining a little bit more about the product. I apologize for my scratchy voice (if it picked it up), I've been sick.
I really thought the mouth guard was nice. Once I got it fit, it fit comfortably in my mouth. I have a bit of an aversion to having things on my teeth and in my mouth, but this really didn't bother me at all. Holding it in my teeth for the two minutes though, that was kind of annoying. Simply because I felt like there was a big piece of plastic in my mouth that was really not fun to have there. Plus it was kind of warm still. I didn't let it cool as long as I should probably, but oh well. It fit nicely and I didn't have a sore lower jaw in the morning when I used it. Now if I can just remember to keep using it.
Some improvements would be if it came with a holding case so that after you rinse it out, there's somewhere nice to put it. Either shaped like the general mouthguard shape or something. I ended up putting mine between two paper towels after I'd rinse it off at night.
Oh, also it's worth noting in the video that I am showing you the one I didn't use. The unmolded and unfitted one. Why? Because y'all don't really need to see how crooked my teeth are!

Things I like..
Looking at Spencer on my camera. Thinking about moving. Thinking about the future. Thinking about Monster and I and a new job and my career goals. I'm officially a college student! Starting classes December 2nd, baby! Bachelor's in IT here I come. Then after that, to a tech school for my technical degree in computer generated animation. Woo!
Other things I like… talking to Angela at night. Checking on Monster in the middle of the night. Reading him a story before bed. Taking pictures. Making things. Drawing. Doodling. Editing pictures.
Some things I don't like though? Being sick. Looking at the prices of south beach hotels (ouch), not having enough caffeine, being hungry.
My brain is so fluttery today because I haven't ate yet and my head is still kind of congested. Ew.
I'm sick. Again.
Jesus monkeys at my immune system. Seriously. What's up with you immune system? START WORKING BETTER. *pokes at it* I've got a gnarly head cold. I bought some suphedrine today and it seems to be helping me breath out of my nose a little better, but ugh. Still. Last night I woke up at 4am because I couldn't breathe. I was so tired, disoriented and dizzy. And, for some reason, Jeremy was awake still. Wtf.
Oh and then Spencer, poor Spencer, called at 4:30am because he was having nightmares. He and I both call each other when we have nightmares and need to talk to someone.
Oh! Speaking of talking to someone! I got to talk to Angela for an hour last night. I had to cut it off a bit earlier than I wanted because Monster was like "oh, Mommy's on the phone, let's BE LOUD AND OBNOXIOUS AND NOT GO TO BED" erg. But yay! And I emailed her last night. I miss her terribly. <3
I keep looking at flights from Texas to Iowa and Iowa to Texas. I miss Spencer, and so does Monster. They really had a great time together. I keep looking at all the different costs and prices. Flights, travel insurance quotes, bus tickets. So many options for people who want to travel. That's good though. Having lots of options is always beneficial, right?
Term life insurance
Earlier I was talking about life insurance quotes, and now I'm looking at term life insurance quote. Whereas regular life insurance spans until you die, term life insurance is only for a period of time. I don't understand what the situation would be with term life insurance. Does somebody want to explain that to me? I don't really 'get' it. Like, if you know you're going to die, you want to get term life insurance?
Acne :(
The bane of every teenagers social life. Acne. There are so many things you can do from simply washing your face more often, to getting specific types of acne treatment. I just feel sorry for teenagers who have severe acne problems. It really affects your self esteem in such dramatic ways. I mean, I know kids grow up and get over it. But what if it was possible to just skip all the weird awkward teenager phase? How many awesome adults would we have?
Speaking of healthy
And speaking right after talking about appetites.. this'll probably make you lose yours! Have you ever heard of having the ability to colon cleanse? I think it's really healthy to do every once in a while, but I've never done it. It seems like it would be kind of invasive, but generally beneficial. Healthy colons make a healthy person, right? Or at the very least, it helps keep your digestive tract healthy!

The EB101M headphones seem to be very attractive a has a cool design to it, but isn't the price for the EB101M headphones are expensive compared with the other headphones. Even though there is a microphone attached to the headphones, I think it's expensive. No offense, but I don't like the price tag and it's expensive.
Available through Authorized Kicker Dealers
The VALID TALK In-Ear Stereo Headset with Microphone
Valid Talk Premium In-Ear Headset with Microphone provides optimized sound quality reproduction and noise isolation whether listening to music or talking on the phone. This multi-functional headset brings the clearest, two-way reception and unique multimedia controls for a complete hands-free solution.
Though fully functioning as both stereo speakers and a multimedia/microphone device, the black headset is designed with high-quality audio in mind, creating rich full-range sound. Music can be switched over to a phone call with Valid Talk's practical, convenient multi-function button that hangs at chest level for easy access to answer and end calls, or control music. The button commands the media device's playlist with play, pause, and track-forward or track-back controls.
Valid Talk features a pair of 10-millimeter speakers protected by rugged, anodized aluminum housings. Also included are four silicone, noise-isolating tip sizes for every comfort level, as well as a set of Comply™ Foam Tips that reduce irritation and fatigue with breathable memory foam activated by body heat.
With a heavy-duty, Kevlar®-reinforced, cloth-covered cable (KICKER Ultra-Gauge™ cable) and a slider, knotted earbuds are not a problem. It's connected to an angled "L" plug (1/8-inch, corrosion-resistant, nickel-plated) that resists wear and tear with stout strain relief, engineered to also fit the recessed socket on the iPhone®.

The EB101M headphones seem to
Wow! superb sound. Really it
Wow! superb sound. Really it has got legendary bass. I am loving listening rock and punk songs through it. It really rocks me. Moreover is fits to my iphone as well.Thanks KICKER for such superb in ear headphones, earplugs and ear buds.
I've been using the eb 101 m for a little less than a week now and I must say, I'm truly impressed. I was never a fan of earbuds in general but this product has changed that. They are extremely comfortable and to make sure your comfort isn't compromised they include an array of silicone tips to find your perfect fit. A nice pull-string pouch is included to carry it all with you. As for the sound, one word comes to mind...Phenomenal! The lows, mids, and highs are matched perfectly so you can hear every bit of the song and/or call. I use over-the-ear headphones on a constant basis and I think the eb 101m matches and actually beats the quality of some of the studio headphones I've used as of late. There are a few things that I wish were different though. Being a blackberry user, I wish the multi-functional button offered more than just play and pause functions when listening to music. The last thing is the 3.5mm jack. It would be much better if it had a 90 degree bend in it. And that again is in part that I'm a blackberry user and the jack is on the side of the phone so it makes it a little awkward to keep the phone in your pocket. Overall I must say that these are well worth purchasing. I highly recommend them to anyone trying to find a replacement of the factory earbuds included with your phone. In my opinion, once you try these, you will never look back.

Custom DIY Gift Tags
- by Ty
I was inspired to create some homemade gift tags. Well we really don't use the word homemade for crafts anymore. The new term is DIY. This is a great way to save money and create a personal touch to holiday gifts. You can pull this off even if you can not draw free hand. Look for a image to create, their are thousands to choose from. I picked My Little Pony, because that is what the gift will be. Once you have your image start to draw it in pencil first. Or if you can 't draw, just print out the image from an online coloring page. Then outline with a black sharpie marker. Then color as desired and cut into a square. Tape or glue the square onto a sheet of card-stock, construction paper, or any festive background you want. Your almost done, I know it's so easy ! Then write out whatever words you want , I used the classic To and From. You will love this money saving trick. I would love to hear your ideas and creative touches you added to your DIY gift tags.

Make-at-Home Restaurant Classics

Want to cook like a chef? Try these pro recipes made easy.
Steak Burritos
Here's a burrito inspired by San Francisco's super burritos that come packed with meat, beans, rice, cheese, guacamole and salsa. We've kept this home-style version a bit simpler to make and a whole lot healthier with brown rice, whole-wheat tortillas, and a more reasonable serving size. We recommend wrapping it in foil the traditional way to serve it so you can pick the burrito up and eat it without it falling apart, peeling back the foil as you go. Serve with a cold beer and vinegar-dressed slaw.

Seriously anyone else watch The Walking Dead? That was awesome
Hell yea! Every season gets better. I'm still kinda mad because the season opener suppose to be 2 hours since its a hour long show. Dang I cant wait until next week.
They actually have people saying it could have been better...
i stopped watching a few episodes into season two. Haven't caught up yet. I'll probably finish season two soon so I can start watching the new season.
@HR Skip Bayless: first take this week to talk about a few headscratching moves some GMs are making.
Still looking to acquire more picks/youth for Raef Lafrents, Cedric Ceballos, and maybe Chris Mihm. All these guys can help out contenders this year.
Are you a West team feeling left out in the fire sale? Well I've got some news for you! Tim Thomas on the block. Good scorer with B potential, would be nice wing piece on a good team. Looking for young PG/SGs who can handle the ball in return.
Listening to offers for Donnell Harvey. A Defense Rating and only 22.
OMG Trade Season is underway! Gilbert Arenas, Gerald Wallace, and Jason Terry can all be packaged together for 2 points! I want to send Moochie Norrise to Offensive Rebounding School! Help a brother out!
In an effort to move the discussion over here, I have tallied all of the east v west head to head games. After going cross eyed looking at every score the winner is...........
East 113-85
Oh, and the east won the all-star game as well.
Right, Not sure what you're trying to prove though? everyone said at preseason the East was better? Then someone said in lieu of the trades the pacific was the toughest division. Your information only proves what everyone said?
High Five !

Antonio Martin accused of attacking homeless man with brick
A Riviera Beach man was arrested after police said he attacked a homeless man with a brick in a drug dispute.
Antonio Martin faces charges of aggravated battery with a deadly weapon and robbery.
More From WPBF: Email alerts | Mobile | Social
Riviera Beach police said the attack happened Sept. 24 in the 100 block of West 16th Street.
According to the arrest report, a homeless man bleeding from a cut on his head approached an officer and said another man, later identified as Martin, had accused him of stealing his drugs. The homeless man denied the accusation and that's when Martin hit him in the head with a blunt object, he told the officer.
When the homeless man regained consciousness, he found his pants pockets turned inside out and a brick laying next to him.
The homeless man was taken to St. Mary's Medical Center for treatment. He later identified Martin from a photo lineup.

Shaunna Dunder Hershberger - Lifestyles Editor
Shaunna Dunder Hershberger has been an NFL fan since she could stand on two feet. Her first word was "Touchdown!" complete with the accompanying hand gestures. OK, that might not all be factual, but how awesome would that have been? Really though, Hershberger has been absorbed in the NFL since her youth. She once said to someone who questioned her football knowledge "I know more about football than your dad." (That really is true.) Hershberger not-so-secretly admires the NFL marketing geniuses and not-so-secretly aspires to someday be the NFL Commissioner. In the meantime, while she plans her ascent to NFL power, she serves as the Lifestyles Editor at the TL. She also writes a weekly NFL column during the season filled with snarky observations from the weekend's action. Although she is a life-long Browns fan (insert sad violin here), Hershberger's favorite player of all time is Dan Marino. And when NFL season is over, Hershberger wipes away her tears long enough to enjoy college basketball and her favorite team, the Duke Blue Devils. Hershberger is a graduate of Martins Ferry High School and holds a bachelor's degree and an MBA from Wheeling Jesuit University, as well as a digital design degree from the Art Institute.

Nothing has an "awww" factor like pictures of cute little kids. However, this people group tends to be the squirmiest and most difficult to get pictures of. Remember, no matter how technically perfect your shots, the key here is to capture the subject's personality, not just a clear photo. Here are a few tips on snapping that perfect picture, whether you plan on using it for a catalog printing project or for a client's family photo shoot.
(Image Credit: Wikipedia.org)
In Their Element
(Image Credit: MamaPicks)
The best time to take pictures of kids is when they are "in their own element" and not posing. Babies are pretty easy to put in poses and outfits because they are usually asleep. Toddlers provide a whole set of problems when you want them to sit still, which means you have to trick them into being cute for the camera. Put them in a sandbox, give them a tub of bubbles, or set them in a yard with puppies. You will, undoubtedly, get great shots.
Engage Them
(Image Credit: ReadAloudKB)
Get the child excited about the photo project. Engage your little "client" by getting down on their level and talking with them in a language they understand. Ask them what they like, and try to work their answer into the photo shoot. Better yet, turn the photo shoot into a game. Award point values for various small tasks. Kids love games and will be all over this challenge trying to please you and win the "game."
(Image Credit: TimeWithTracy)
Learn the child's personality. A "great photo" isn't always the one where the child is looking dead into the camera lens and smiling from ear to ear. Sometimes those pictures are fantastic. Sometimes, however, you will get kids who are naturally shy or naturally subdued. Don't try to change that child's personality just for a camera. Rather, attempt to capture the essence of a child, their expressions, their unique cuteness factors. Pictures done this way will win the hearts of their parents (the ones who are paying for the pictures) much more so than generic poses.
Multiple Shots
(Image Credit: FastActionTraining)
Shoot photographs in bursts of at least three. Kids are always in motion, especially if you have them playing with something. Thus, take action shots in sets of three so as to show progression of movement. These shots can look great in tri-frames. They can also (if you can get the right activity) show a variety of three or so different emotions and facial expressions.
The Trifecta: ISO, F/Stop, and Shutter Speed
(Image Credit: BebeOnline)
Getting the right balance of ISO, F/stop, and shutter speed when photographing children can be a serious challenge. You already know you're going to need a fast shutter speed because kids tend to move around quickly and unpredictably. A setting of 1/250-1/1000 is recommended. Depending upon the amount of light in your shot, start with an ISO of 200 for bright scenes and work your way up as needed. Start with an f/stop of f5.6 and adjust as needed. Most of these settings are highly dependent upon the scene and the child. You can set your camera to auto mode, but you will likely need to set the priority to Aperture.
Natural Lighting
(Image Credit: NYFifth)
Use natural lighting. Children represent innocence and purity in the world. The best way to capture this idea is by creating a natural atmosphere. Take the pictures outside, or open a large window. If you use a window, you can get some neat shots of the child's reflection, but beware of the dreaded backlight.
Fun Backgrounds
(Image Credit: ScrapbookFlair)
Use backgrounds that are reflective of childhood. Using situations that drive parents crazy like board game pieces scattered about, socks and shoes left on the floor, and getting into mommy's make-up will all work together to make a picture more realistic and endearing. For added kid bonus points (and possibly some wonderful candid shots) let the child make the mess for you. This will make the photo shoot experience more enjoyable for them and for you since happy kids make for great pictures.

emisi:I've been feeling BH for a while, especially if I stand up too fast, stand up too long, or are dehydrated. I try to avoid any of those things and it helps.
Ditto this, for a couple of weeks now. Much more frequently and earlier than with my first, but that doesn't shock me.
The first time I had one was in the middle of the night. It was kind of a shock and it hurt. I tried to move positions and couldn't. After I figured out what it was, they aren't as shocking or painful, and it's actually kind of fun when you can see your belly change shape.
Remember it's "practice" contractions, so use them to practice your breathing and coping techniques
I think I figured out that's what was happening to me last week. It has happened every few days, but it definitely doesn't hurt. Just feels tight with a bit of pressure. Sometimes when I hold urinating too long, I seem to notice a tightening right after and my belly seems very round/ball-like.

Homeless youth: the next battle for gay equality
NEW YORK Iro Uikka clutches his throat as he describes the violent clash that led to spending his nights sleeping in New York City subway cars.
"When I told my mother I was gay, she grabbed me by the neck and threw me out," he says. "Then she threw my coat on top of me and shut the door."
That was five years ago when he was 18, still living at home in Florida.
Uikka is among tens of thousands of homeless youths across America who are LGBT - lesbian, gay, bisexual or transgender. Most are on the streets because they have nowhere else to go - outcasts who leave home after being rejected by family members or flee shelters because residents bully or beat them.
LGBT young people represent a dramatically high proportion of an estimated 600,000 or more homeless youths across the country - between 20 percent and 40 percent, according to the National Gay and Lesbian Task Force Policy Institute. But only about 5 percent of youths identify themselves as lesbian, gay or bisexual, according to the federal Centers for Disease Control and Prevention.
"We've won battles for gay marriage and gays in the military," says Carl Siciliano, founder and executive director of the New York-based Ali Forney Center, the nation's largest organization for LGBT youth. "This is the next frontier, the next battle: helping these youths."
The White House has taken notice. Members of the Obama Administration are hosting a national conference on housing and homelessness in America's LGBT communities on Friday in Detroit. They'll discuss these issues with advocates, community leaders and the public.
Detroit City Council President Charles Pugh, who is openly gay, is one of the participants.
"I take this discussion personally because I know too many people who have been kicked out of their homes because of their orientation," he told The Associated Press. "To get this kind of attention from the White House is exactly what we need to raise conscientiousness and to help parents find a way to deal with their kids' orientation."
Detroit has the only nonprofit agency in the Midwest that focuses on LGBT youth - the Ruth Ellis Center, co-host of the Friday conference. But the largely voiceless, powerless youth are fighting to survive from coast to coast.
They live on streets, in subways and train stations, on river piers, in parks and abandoned houses. They're robbed, raped and assaulted. Some are murdered.
And they're invisible to most Americans.
Lesbian, gay and bisexual youth are about four times more likely to attempt suicide than their straight peers, according to the CDC. And one in three is thrown out by their parents, according to data collected from youth across the country by the Family Acceptance Project at San Francisco State University.
Some youth use "survival sex" to land in a warm bed, or they move from home to home of friends and acquaintances.
In the past, Ryan Kennedy resorted to survival sex. He lists his education on Facebook as "Urban Survivalism at University of NYC Streets." He adopted a rebellious middle name for his page, calling himself "Ryan TransEquality Kennedy."

Can Tetris prevent PTSD?
This sounds like a ridiculous question—but research suggests that it might! A 2009 study by Emily Holmes and her colleagues at Oxford University draws upon the latest principles of cognitive science, and applies them to traumatic visual images.
Flashbacks are one of the key symptoms of posttraumatic stress disorder (PTSD). A flashback is a "distressing re-experiencing of the trauma in the form of intrusive, image-based, sensory-perceptual memories." Neurobiology research suggests that memories are "consolidated" or laid down in the brain over an approximately six-hour period. Yet cognitive science has shown that the brain has limited capacity to consolidate memories.

We noticed that Kelly Brook tried different hairstyles during her days in the spotlight. Just like Demi Lovato, who was recently dubbed by fashion watchers as hair chameleon, Kelly has experimented with almost every hair color. But after spending this year as a loyal brunette, she appears ready for another change.
Many style enthusiasts noticed that the pretty model has been gradually highlighting her hair in recent weeks after concluding filming Keith Lemon: The Movie. That's why we're always curious of her secrets to achieve fabulous hairstyle.
The 32-year-old beauty was spotted at the opening day of the Hollywood International Film Festival in Capri with considerably lighter tresses yesterday. The model-turned-actress attended the Italian film festival with her dashing beau, former rugby player Thom Evans.
Miss Brook looked stunning in a prim cream shift dress with a vintage brooch fastened at the neckline. She paired the stylish ensemble with satin platform heels and silver-hued shoulder bag. To highlight her up-to-date hairstyle, she wore a light pink coat. She transformed her long curls into a golden mane that goes from blonde to a deeper hue at the ends. Wearing an immaculate makeup, she managed to emphasize her flawless complexion and enviable figure.
Thom wore a tailored grey suit beneath a matching coat and artfully draped scarf. He teamed the attire with a pair of fashionable shoes.
It seemed that Kelly enjoyed her appearance in the star-studded event. She flaunted her gorgeous look as she posed happily with Thom on the red carpet. To update her doting fans on the occasion, she tweeted, "Having such a wonderful time in Italy. Watching Great Movies this week and eating the best pasta with the ones I love most. Bellissimo x."

MS-DNP with Nurse Practitioner Specialty
The MS- DNP with a nurse practitioner specialty entry pathway is designed for nurses with an earned MS degree in nursing who wish to pursue the practice doctorate with a nurse practitioner specialty. Master's prepared nurses who are not eligible for national certification as a nurse practitioner, nurse midwife, nurse anesthetist or clinical nurse specialist may select the MS-DNP entry pathway. Nurses who wish to add to their advanced practice credentials may also select this entry pathway.
MS-DNP students seeking nurse practitioner preparation will receive a broad foundation of educational preparation in advanced care of the selected specialty population, nursing theories and nursing research methods. Graduates of the program are prepared as providers of care at a beginning level of advanced practice within their specialty, and as scholarly clinicians who use research and research methods to improve the health care quality and patient safety for their selected specialty population. Health assessment, health promotion, health care maintenance, clinical decision making, and illness management are emphasized in the classroom and clinical practice settings. All students complete a minimum of 1,000 practice immersion hours, including extensive clinical time and a faculty mentored scholarly project (Practice Inquiry). Upon completion of the degree, graduates will be eligible to take the national certification exam and then apply for licensure in the graduate's practice state.
Students admitted to the MS-DNP with a NP specialty begin the program at a 5-day scholar in residence program called RISE (Resident Intensive Summer Experience) in August just prior to the regular start of the Fall Term. Some required courses will actually begin during RISE. Students who have not taken a graduate statistics course will be required to do so during the first fall semester of the program. Full-time and part-time options are available.
Nurse practitioner students may opt for additional preparation for practice in rural areas by enrolling in rural health coursework as electives and by practicing in a rural setting when enrolling in NURS 693A Clinical Residency.

This one goes strait to my favorite. I love to sample the work of GRIEG in my rap beat. I feel like you did honor to his composition. Do you record in a professional studio ? cause the sound quality is good for my personnal taste! Short song but really effective :)
Thank you very much indeed! :) I recorded it with a Zoom microphone, so not in a professional studio. That would be fantastic. I am very happy that you like it! Oh it's cool that you implement Grieg in your beats - which of his compositions do you use for which songs of yours? I always appreciate a genre crossover.

8 Agriculture Stocks With Upside: Analysts
NEW YORK ( TheStreet) -- CF Industries Holdings (CF), Agrium (AGU), Potash Corporation of Saskatchewan (POT) and Bunge (BG) are among eight agriculture stocks with potential upside of up to 28%, based on analysts price targets. Being analysts' favorites, most of these stocks have no sell ratings.
8. Bunge (BG) is a global agribusiness and food company operating in the farm-to-consumer food chain. It conducts its business in four divisions: agribusiness, sugar and bioenergy, food and ingredients and fertilizer.
During the first quarter ended March 2011, net sales rose 17.9% to $12.2 billion from $10.3 billion, driven by a 22.2% increase in revenue from agribusiness. Total volumes, however, declined 8% to 29.3 million tons. Subsequently, net income soared to $224 million, or $1.49 per share, as opposed to $44 million, or 31 cents per share, a year ago.
The company recently declared a regular quarterly cash dividend of 23 cents per share payable on June 2, 2011 to stockholders of record on May 19, 2011.
Of the 14 analysts covering the stock, 43% recommend buying it, while 50% rate it a hold. On average, analysts foresee 5% upside to $78.11 in value from current levels.

Cable Providers Now Have More Internet Customers
NEW YORK (TheStreet) -- For the first time, Internet service subscribers now outnumber TV service subscribers at the country's top cable companies, according to a newly published survey.
Leichtman Research Group reports the country's largest cable and telephone providers, which represent more than 90% of the total market, added nearly 385,000 net additional high-speed Internet subscribers in the second quarter of 2014. When combined, (50.7 million subscribers from cable companies and 35.2 from telephone companies), nearly 86 million people connect to the Internet though these top 17 providers.
Bruce Leichtman, the research company's president and principal analyst, notes that cable companies are expanding their services to better compete in this market. "With the addition of more than 30 million broadband subscribers over the past decade, cable providers have clearly expanded well beyond their roots in cable TV service," Leichtman said in a release. "As of the end of 2Q 2014, the top cable providers now have more broadband subscribers than cable TV subscribers."

At the top of the list of cable companies is Comcast (CMCSA) which added more than 200,000 new Internet customers in the second quarter followed by Time Warner (TWC) (86,000 additional customers) and Charter Communications (CHTR) adding 62,000. Placing fourth, Cablevision (CVC) actually registered a net loss of 9,000 customers in the quarter.In February of this year, Comcast announced a deal to buy Time Warner in a stock swap worth an estimated (at the time) $45.2 billion. The proposed merger of the number one and number two cable and Internet companies is currently under review by both the FCC and the U.S. Justice Department. AT&T (T) topped the list of providers although suffering a loss of 55,000 customers in the second quarter. At the same time Verizon (VZ) scored a net gain of 46,000, CenturyLink (CTL) lost only 2,000 while Frontier Communications (FTR) added 27,500 subscribers. The survey found:
- Overall, broadband additions in 2Q 2014 amounted to 130% of those in 2Q 2013
- The top cable companies accounted for 99% of the net broadband additions for the quarter versus the top telephone companies
- The top cable companies added about 380,000 subscribers, representing 128% of the net additions for the top cable companies in 2Q 2013
- For the top cable providers (not including overbuilder WOW), the number of broadband subscribers exceeded the number of cable TV subscribers for the first time ever -- with about 49,915,000 broadband subscribers at the end of 2Q 2014, compared to about 49,910,000 cable TV subscribers
- The top telephone companies added about 2,000 broadband subscribers in 2Q 2014 -- compared to a loss of about 2,000 in 2Q 2013
- AT&T and Verizon added 627,000 subscribers via U-verse and FiOS in 2Q 2014, while having a net loss of 636,000 DSL subscribers
- The top cable broadband providers have a 59% share of the market versus the top Telcos

Picture this: you're a small child, knee-high and excitable, and it's Oct. 31. Sure, you've been dressed up as a pumpkin, but it's okay, because you know what's coming next: more candy than you can carry, which will probably last you all the way to Christmas. And then, to your horror, your parents take you to the scariest place you know: the police station.
That's exactly what hundreds of families are planning to do this Halloween, when the 109th Precinct, based in Flushing on Union Street, will transform its ground floor into a house of horrors for its fourth annual Halloween Open House.
Last year, more than 500 families attended the event, content in the knowledge that their children could not be safer. Kids, meanwhile, scrambled between the decked-out rooms, ransacked the buckets of candy and discovered that, actually, the police aren't that scary after all.
"The main thing that the Open House allows is for kids to have fun in a safe environment, and to get safe candy," said Detective Kevin O'Donnell. "But we also want to have a positive interaction with the community — to let people know that the police station isn't outside of the community, it's part of the community."
This isn't the first community event the precinct has hosted. In August, their "Repack your Backpack" event gave school supplies to children who needed them; at their annual Christmas party, complete with community leaders (including Santa Claus), the same kids were given presents.
"Whenever children can see police officers in a positive light, that's great for both the community and for individuals," said child safety expert Erin Whitton. "They have to know that they're there to help them, not be a hindrance to them."
Typically, said both Whitton and O'Donnell, small children are afraid of the police.
"Their parents can say things like, 'Be good, or the police will come and get you,'" said the detective.
Within the precinct's busy neighborhoods, however, this perception can be dangerous. "Kids sometimes get lost on Main Street," said O'Donnell, "We want them to be able to approach us — to not hide from us because they're scared, especially if we're actually out there looking for them."
It's not just small children who are terrified of the police. The 109th Precinct covers downtown and east Flushing, Queensboro Hill, College Point, Malba, Whitestone, Beechhurst and Bay Terrace; a diverse area with a great deal of first-generation immigrants.
Since these members of the community are afraid of their immigration status being exposed, said O'Donnell, they may be far less likely to report crimes to the police, appear as witnesses, or be active members in the community. With events like the precinct's August's National Night Out Against Crime — a family-friendly event with the message that members of the community, not criminals, own the streets — adults are also invited to build a positive relationship with the police.
This is beneficial even for American citizens, whose relations with the police (parking tickets, summonses) tend to be negative ones, said O'Donnell. It's also a good way for immigrants to discover that "no one will accost you, and we'll never ask [about immigration status]," he added.
The Halloween Open House is organized with the help of the precinct's community council, with donations of candy from volunteer council members, who deck out the different rooms on their own time.
For those who trick-or-treat elsewhere, Whitton warns of one hidden danger on Halloween: pedestrian vehicular accidents.
With kids weaving between cars in their hurry to reach more houses, she said, twice as many children are killed between 4 p.m. and 10 p.m. on Oct. 31 than any other night of the year.
"Kids don't understand the dangers that Halloween can present," Whitton said. "Parents and guardians should sit down with their kids before Halloween, and really talk about these issues."
Or, they could just take them down to the police station.
The Halloween Open House will take place from 3 p.m. to 6 p.m. on Oct. 31, at 37-05 Union Street, Flushing.

Quick Questions about Expedition Everest Challenge
Hi everyone,
I have signed up for the expedition everest challenge 5k for the first time this year! I had some quick questions...
1. Approximately how long does it take to pick up the packet from ESPNWWoS the day before? I'm just trying to figure out how early we should leave the park to get there and then later to our dinner reservation in time.
2. Has anyone ever gotten to ESPNWWoS from a park/non-race hotel? If so, what was the fastest/easiest route to get here?
3. My partner pulled a few ligaments in her knee on new years- while her trainer keeps telling her she will be ready to run in may, she is still limping just walking around. Is there a "substitution" policy? I know there are no refunds, but could another member of our group who isn't registered for the race "take her place" if in a few months she still can't run? If that can't happen and she can't run, what happens to our "team"?
Thanks for the help everyone

I stayed off-property and didn't have a problem getting there. There is going to be traffic because of the season, but it is starting later this year which is probably a good thing in that regard. I don't think it really makes a difference where you come from, but if you can avoid the area by DTD, that may be wise because it is usually a bottleneck at night.
You can switch team members, just fill out the change form before March. It is on the runDisney page under registration. You can't cancel or defer her registration. Your team will still exist otherwise and you could probably switch team members after that point, but they will be under her name. I want to say I picked up both of the bibs for my team, so I don't even know if you need her authorization to pick up the bib or not. You can walk the course, so that may be an option for her. It does get crowded and the obstacles are optional. You will find that this is not your typical Disney race.

The expo for Everest is a fraction of the size of the other expos. I have been to the Marathon Weekend and the Princess (and Disneyland) expos - all of which are indoors and have significant presence from running vendors, supplies, speakers etc. Last year was my first Everest, and I almost walked right past the expo, which was set up outdoors. I remember a few folding tables: one to get your packet, one to get your pin maybe? There was a small booth of merchandise - some t-shirts and hats if I recall - and a little scene set up where you could take your picture. The shirts/bags were inside, and they had a few vendors set up in the hallway. I remember being a bit taken aback, thinking how glad I was that I didn't wait to get any supplies (chomps, socks, etc) at the expo because I would have been out of luck. It took us about 15 minutes total to get everything and get out.
Hope that helps!

I am not a shopper AT ALL so I would agree with 15-30 minutes.
If you do not have a car, take the first bus to any park, then take a bus from that park to a host resort, then take bus from host resort to WWS. Reverse to get back. Allow a couple of hours for this. You may want to just take a cab.
If you need a new team member, feel free to PM me. I MAY be able to do it. I'm to be at WDW then regardless and I'm hoping to be recovered enough from a ruptured Achilles that I could WALK it.

Thanks for the replies everyone, it really helps a lot!
Does anyone know the approximate price of the cab? (As in, are we talking around $5, or $50?)It seems like for our plans, it would be easiest to take a cab from DHS to ESPNWWoS, and then take the resort bus back to AKL where we are staying.
JennyDrake- Thank for your the offer! I hope my partner is at least ok to walk by then also. I wish you a speedy recovery and best of luck with the achilles- I'm very familiar with the problem (kind of inherited flat feet, so I take huge measures to make sure my achilles isn't pulled too much) and know that it's not fun to deal with :-\

It's been a couple years since I've taken a cab at WDW, but I want to say it's about $15-20. Definitely not $50.

This is exactly what we did. We took a cab from dhs to the expo for the Halloween 5k in sept and it was about $15. Money well spent so we didn't have to waste time going to a host resort then waiting for a bus to the expo. We took the resort bus back to por afterward.
Oh, and the resort buses are nowhere near the regular bus stop at wwos, they are way across the parking lot, not easy to see. We wasted a bit of time sitting at the bus stop waiting, and then the regular bus drivers had no idea where we should go, til one of them called in to ask.

"I ordered this card for my sons baptism in the extra thick paper. Quality is excellent and took only one week to be printed and delivered to Australia. Also was very easy to order online. I would highly recommend Tiny Prints and would definitely use them again."
"These cards were perfect for my son's baby dedication service. The scalloped edges are well worth a little extra ! This will be an invitation I cherish for years!"
"I placed a short-deadline order on-line and received my invitations just a few days later. They looked even better than the picture. Ordered the heavy stock but otherwise ordered the card just as shown on-line. Very high-end look and quality printing...very pleased!"
"I am extremely satisfied with my purchase. This is the first time I order from TinyPrints, but it will definitely not be my last. I was very impressed with the quality of my son's invitation and best of all, I received it 4 days early! Thank you TinyPrints!"
"My son picked out this design and it turned out beautifully. I used the "Ask a designer" option and had the reverse side printed in the same light blue used on the cross. We put his favorite "Guardian Angel" prayer on the back and printed the return address on the envelopes. Elegant and fitting for a very special liturgy for a very special boy!"

Dave Pelz was pictured wearing Oakley shoes all last year in Golf Magazine. It looks like Oakley is making the push, but in my opinion they need to match Addidas in performance and comfort. For me, Addidas fits me best and has the best platform for lateral movements. Last year's models could not compete with my 3 year old Tour 360′s.

Q&A with Oakley Golf: "We're armed and ready to be a leader"
Al Janc, Oakley's sports marketing manager, took the time to answer these questions from GolfWRX Managing Editor Zak Kozuchowski about the future of Oakley Golf.
ZK: The two latest additions to Team Oakley, Bubba Watson and Zach Johnson, have both won The Masters (Bubba in 2012, Zach in 2007). But they have different personalities and contrasting styles of play. How are they both fits for Team Oakley?
AJ: Bubba and Zach do have different personalities, different games and go about their business in different ways on the golf course. We believe this is a benefit, as both guys appeal to different target demographics, which widens our consumer base. While both of these young men have contrasting styles, they have values that align with our brand's core values of Passion, Authenticity, Performance, Humility and Innovation. Bubba and Zach believe in family and faith and they respect the game of golf. They maintain professionalism on and off the course, and believe the game of golf should be for everyone to play and enjoy, not just the elite. They both keep themselves in excellent physical shape and wear the Oakley apparel collection very well.
ZK: How do endorsements like Watson's and Johnson's work? Do athletes approach Oakley, or vice versa?
AJ: It works both ways. In some instances, we have identified and pursued athletes. In other instances, we've been approached by individuals that, after meeting them and analyzing their body of work, we felt they were a good fit for the Oakley brand and culture and signed them up to endorse the brand.
ZK: The Oakley website lists team members in dozens of sports. What is the company's commitment to golf and where does it see growth potential?
AJ: Most people know Oakley as a performance eyewear company, but even avid golfers still don't know we're committed to categories outside of our eyewear: apparel, footwear and accessories. This perception is quickly changing, however, due to a number of factors: the performance of our athletes on professional golf tours around the world, the quality of the products we're producing and the incredible ambassadorship Oakley maintains at the grassroots level. From a US standpoint, there are tremendous growth opportunities as it pertains to a number of entities in the golf space—apparel, footwear, accessories, women and active ophthalmic eyewear. From a global standpoint, there is huge a opportunity in every segment of our golf business as we are now diving into a wider market.
ZK: Who is the Oakley Golf brand targeting – golfers or athletes? Does Oakley believe that there is a difference between the two?
AJ: Oakley does not believe there is a distinction between a golfer and an athlete any more. Years ago, people who played golf didn't have the physical skills to keep up on the diamond, gridiron, or basketball court. That is not the case any longer. The athletes playing the sport of golf now, and in many cases, are choosing to be a golfer rather than a football, basketball or baseball player.
ZK: In your opinion, what's the most important thing a golfer wears on the course?
AJ: It would probably be the golf shoe followed closely by eyewear. Golfers spends an incredible amount of time on their feet during the course of the day, so their shoes need to be as light and comfortable as possible without giving up any performance benefits when it comes to swinging a driver and knocking a ball 300 yards or more. The shoes need to have a stable platform, be light and comfortable with incredible traction all wrapped in design lines true to the Oakley design.
Eyewear is key piece of equipment as well. We are really seeing a trend in players protecting their eyes from the sun, wind and foreign particles blowing around on a golf course. You cannot reverse eye damage and you are seeing many of the modern players understand this and adapting to wearing eyewear. We believe those athletes who play in eyewear have a huge advantage over the competitors who don't by reducing eyestrain from squinting into the elements all day long. Oakley has created an array of lens tints specifically suited for the game of golf and the changing light conditions. We also have sports specific frames like Fast Jacket and Radar Lock that were conceived so athletes and consumers have the ability to change out their lenses in varying light conditions quickly and easily.
ZK: What should golf fans expect from the Oakley brand in golf in 2013 and beyond?
Innovation. Innovation is in Oakley's DNA. The company was built on the premise that "everything can and will be made better," and that includes our own designs. With patented technologies in our eyewear, apparel and footwear we're armed and ready to be a leader in the industry when it comes to cutting edge innovations for the sport of golf. We're excited about the many opportunities that lay in front of us as a brand.

That's cool they think ZJ has fans… good for him. He does wear glasses when he plays I think so that was probably part of it. They need to scrap everything and start over on shoes. Keegan looked ridiculous last year in those things. Bubba is very marketable. That partnership has some potential. I just hope they let him wear FJ's until they get things figured out.
It's interesting because I've always identified Oakley as predominately an eye wear company. Even after seen Rory McIlroy wear their clothing it's always been their eye wear that I have associated them with.
This will be the challenge for Oakley to change the perception and have themselves viewed as a leader in all golf and athletic apparel.
Bubba and Zach are two great role models for golf and Oakley have done well to sign both. Losing Rory McIlroy will hurt them but these two guys are very well respected and always command plenty of television coverage.
Thanks for the interview, much appreciated.
Hard to take footwear seriously when NONE of their athletes wear it.
Rory didn't, Bubba doesn't, Zack doesn't. Only guy who did is Keegan and they let him get away.
Oakley shoes are great, the problem with them is that they don't make most of their styles in anything but D. People have wide and narrow feet. Start making more sizes and I'll start buying them again. They are my favorite shoes, when I can get them in a wide.

At what age should we start feeding the calves hay?
Married to my best friend and mother of 5.
You should put hay out for them as soon as possible... whether they eat it or not is a moot point. If it's there, when they are ready for it, they have it.
Nasha Dacha
The only people who never make mistakes are those who are afraid to try!
On bottle calves I offer it to them on day 3 as well as a handful of grain
What they said.
Home is the hunter, home from the hill, and the sailor home from the sea...
You can introduce hay from day one, although I usually wait till they are at least 4-7 days old. At that age it does not need to be good quality nutritious feed, just clean straw to get their rumen working. The good quality hay should be introduced in time for them to be eating hay well by the time they are weaned off milk.
Rumen developement is influenced more by the ingredients in grain. Feeding straw to scratch the rumen to get it working is an old wives tale. http://www.calfnotes.com/pdffiles/CN019.pdf
calves should have access to a good quality grain starter, good quality hay and fresh water within the first week.
Deja Moo; The feeling I've heard this bull before.
I had a black angus calf that started eating hay at 4 days old.
Our calves start tasting hay within the first couple days. We keep them on the cow for a few months, so they like to try whatever mom is eating. I separate the cow/calf overnight and usually give the calf a bit of hay in case she wants to eat some overnight.
Watch a week old calf next to mama. They start chewing on it but watching mom.
