How I did it: I became a list lady. I wrote everything I needed to do down, at first this just made me depressed because of all the things I wasn't getting done. But then I started tackling smaller chores and it sort of snowballed over time. Changing takes a while, so, don't be hard on yourself if you don't shape-up right away. Try different things too! Maybe you are a list lady too, you'll never know unless you try stuff. I find that I need reminders … Read how I did it…
How I did it: The first time I gave blood I was sweating and I felt horrible just because I was anticipating horrible pain. Needles don't hurt horribly they are just really uncomfortable. That's a very important difference! Each time I give blood it gets easier. This helped me get over my anxiety about needles, I was able to get my ears pierced. Read how I did it…
How I did it: Practice and courage. i just tried to say what i needed to say. in some situations I waited while thinking about how to broach an awkward subject. I told my hubby when I had to broach an awkward subject and he helped me through. one thing I realized is that when you lie or aren't fully forth coming with something it isolates you and inhibits connection with others. Read how I did it…
See all "How I Did It" stories...
I think that its pretty funny that there isn't an "how I did it" entry under this goal. we all must have pretty trashy places. :)
It seems easier to be outgoing at work because Im a waitress I have to actually talk to people. this has actually been good for me because it has forced me to do something that is uncomfortable for me. luckily I only work on the weekends. I used to hate my job because of the people interaction but now i love/like it. if you are nice to people they are usually nice to you. :) who knew??

Arizona Lemon Law Final Repair Attempt
AZ Lemon Law Final Repair Attempt
Arizona Lemon Law Final Repair Attempt
The Arizona Lemon Law, like any other law, has requirements that must be satisfied in order for a consumer to seek protection under it. Arizona's Lemon Law is very similar to many other state lemon law statutes. But, one difference that separates some lemon law statutes is the requirement that a manufacturer be allowed a Final Repair Attempt. The Arizona Lemon Law does contain such a requirement. This simply means that, before they can seek all the remedies under the lemon law, the consumer must give the manufacturer written notice of any ongoing defects with their vehicle. Also, the Manufacturer must be given one final opportunity under the Arizona Lemon Law to try to fix the defects.
Obviously, even if the defects are not fixed during the final repair attempt, the consumer can still seek repairs. But, after meeting the other lemon law requirements and by notifying and allowing the manufacturer the final repair attempt, the consumer has done everything they need to do to gain protection under the Arizona Lemon Law. This is because the manufacturer only gets so many chances to try to fix a problem before it has to repurchase or repl=
ace a vehicle. Therefore, the Final Repair Attempt is the last chance, after multiple repair attempts, to fix any problems.
So, under the Arizona Lemon Law there are remedies that can help consumers with defective vehicles. But, to seek such remedies, all of the requirements under the statute must be satisfied. Getting the most out ofthe Arizona Lemon Law also depends on your attorney. Contact an Arizona Lemon Law attorney today for a free evaluation.
Arizona Lemon Law Statute of Limitations
Arizona Lemon Law How Long to file?
At one time or another every Arizona car buyer experiences problems with a vehicle they purchase. But, if a buyer hopes for assistance with their problems then they have to file some sort of action to preserve their rights under the Arizona Lemon Law. Problems come when a buyer waits too long to file. This is where a "statute of limitations" comes in. Every law has a statute of limitations. The statute of limitations puts a restriction on the time period for when someone can bring a claim under a particular law. Every law has a different statute of limitations. The Arizona Lemon Law has a very specific statute of limitations. So, it is very important to do research on what type of claim one might have and to contact an Arizona Lemon Law Attorney who can advise as to whether or not the time limit has passed on filing a claim.
An action under the Arizona Lemon Law must be filed within 2 years or 24,000 miles (whichever is earlier) after original delivery. "Delivery" means the day that the new vehicle is taken home by the original owner. After this 2 year/24,000 mile point, the ability to assert a claim under the Arizona Lemon Law is gone. This was designed so that people do not sleep on their rights. It is so that people who have claims and who are diligent about seeking a remedy actually have the opportunity to fight for that remedy. The opposite side of the coin is that people who have claims but do not do the necessary work to put themselves in a situation to solve their problems will not be afforded full protection of the Arizona Lemon Law.
In conclusion, the principle is simple – the minute a vehicle seems to be exhibiting defects of any kind, contact an Arizona Lemon Law Attorney. By doing this, one can obtain the information on whether the Arizona Lemon Law applies, whether a claim can be filed, and how long until the statute of limitations runs.
Dodge Journey Arizona Lemon Law
2009 Dodge Journey
Practicing under the lemon laws of various states exposes attorneys to many unique situations. The premise behind these laws is that a vehicle manufactured and sold with a factory warranty should be reliable. The customer who buys such a vehicle should not have to take time out of their daily activities to present the vehicle for repairs 3 to 4 times during the first few years of ownership for issues other than general maintenance.
For this very reason, the 2009 Dodge Journey is a vehicle that has many consumers fuming. The Journey was built as a small SUV aimed at competing with the Ford Escape. But, quickly it was apparent that the Journey was of inferior quality. The Michigan Lemon Law only requires that the vehicle be presented for repairs 4 times but many owners have presented their Journeys 10-15 times for various issues. This is unacceptable.
Since its release, the Dodge Journey has exhibited defects relating to the engine, oil leaks, excessive oil consumption, suspension, brakes, transmission, and electrical system. There have been multiple recalls for various issues and Chrysler even sent a letter to owners extending the warranty of the brakes due to multiple known defects with them. Needless to say, it is no secret that this version of the Journey has failed at providing quality transportation to many of its owners.
When consumers experience something as disconcerting as dealing with a vehicle that exhibits all kinds of problems, the natural reaction is to get angry. Purchasing a vehicle is a huge undertaking for most and should not be taken lightly. That is why there has been a very strong response from consumers that want to file lemon law claims on their 2009 Dodge Journeys. Our office welcomes these claims because rarely has our office seen one particular vehicle exhibit so many different problems. Usually it is one or two things that break down repeatedly, but with the 2009 Journey it is an endless list of major defects that continue to give consumers problems.
Arizona Lemon Law
AZ Lemon Law
The Arizona Lemon Law was designed to protect consumers who purchase new and used vehicles covered by the manufacturer's factory warranty. A warranty is supposed to provide coverage for things that go wrong with a vehicle. But, what provides coverage for the time, money, and effort it takes to present a defective vehicle for repair after repair? This is where the Arizona Lemon Law comes in. Arizona defines this problem as presenting the vehicle for an "unreasonable number of repair attempts."
Under the statute, an unreasonable number of repair attempts equals taking a vehicle in four or more times for the same problem. The manufacturer must also have been given prior notification of the ongoing problems and the manufacturer must have been given one last chance to fix the problems. This just means that the consumer must contact the car company and tell them that have been experiencing issues and that they want the vehicle to be fixed. If a consumer meets these requirements and the problems continue, then the Arizona lemon law mandates that the manufacturer must repurchase the vehicle.
Not all vehicles are covered. Vehicles protected under the lemon law include those vehicles designed to be operated on public highways. This covers cars, trucks, and motorcycles bought new or used that function as daily drivers, pleasure vehicles, personal vehicles, etc. Also, vehicles under 10,000 pounds are covered.
So, in short, to be covered under the Arizona Lemon Law – take the vehicle to the dealership for warranty repairs 4 times or more within the first two years or 24,000 miles (whichever occurs first) and then let the manufacturer directly (not the dealership) know that there are defects with the vehicle. If the manufacturer tries to fix the problem one last time and the problem continues – then the manufacturer might have to repurchase the vehicle under the Arizona Lemon Law. Contact an Arizona Lemon Law attorney today for more information.
Reasonable Number of Repair Attempts Under Arizona Lemon Law
Under the Arizona Lemon Law, there are two ways in which the law defines what a reasonable number of repair attempts are. The sections are as follows.
1. The same nonconformity has been subject to repair four or more times by the manufacturer or its agents or authorized dealers during the shorter of the express warranty term or the period of two years or twenty-four thousand miles following the date of original delivery of the motor vehicle to the consumer, whichever is earlier, but the nonconformity continues to exist.
2. The motor vehicle is out of service by reason of repair for a cumulative total of thirty or more calendar days during the shorter of the express warranty term or the two year period or twenty-four thousand miles, whichever is earlier.

- Heat oven to 180C/gas 160C/gas 4. Grease a 20cm cake tin and line the bottom with a circle of greaseproof paper. If you want to make life easy, simply put all the ingredients (except the cocoa powder) into a food processor and whizz for 1-2 mins until smooth. If you prefer to mix by hand, beat the butter and sugar together, then add the eggs, one at a time, mixing well after each addition. Fold through the flour, milk and vanilla extract until the mixture is smooth.
- Divide the mixture between 2 bowls. Stir the cocoa powder into the mixture in one of the bowls. Take 2 spoons and use them to dollop the chocolate and vanilla cake mixes into the tin alternately. When all the mixture has been used up (and if young kids are doing this, you'll need to ensure the base of the tin is fairly evenly covered), tap the bottom on your work surface to ensure that there aren't any air bubbles. Take a skewer and swirl it around the mixture in the tin a few times to create a marbled effect.
- Bake the cake for 45-55 mins until a skewer inserted into the centre comes out clean. Turn out onto a cooling rack and leave to cool. Will keep for 3 days in an airtight container or freeze for up to 3 months.

check this amazing... easy to do, no bake oreo choco-pops at marmite et ponpon.
this is a super easy recipe... ideal for baby's snack...
I made this for my daughter's birthday cake (adding pink food colouring to the vanilla sponge!), and it is the easiest cake I've ever made and came out perfectly! I will now use this if I want a chocolate cake and just keep all the mix together and add lots more cocoa. So pleased I found this recipe, I often have problems with cakes rising etc and this was wonderful :)
Really easy recipe made with the kids for some half term fun! Absolutely delicious easiest marble cake recipe I have found. The cake is really moist but we did add some chocolate fudge flavour icing on the top just to add to the calorific content !!!
I'm sure it would last at least 3 days but doubt it will in our house!
5 stars if the iPad would co-operate.
I tried many marble cake recipes, but THIS ONE RULES!!!! not only that it is the most simple of all, but it bakes in any kind of dish that you have. i tried silicon, ceramic, aluminium, name it it turned out great, and yummy and soft and delicious.
Btw, I and a huge fan of this kind of cakes :-)
Thanks a lot!

Please note: MP3s are only kept online for a short time, and if this entry is from more than a couple of weeks ago, the music probably won't be available to download any more.
"Never Gonna Cry Again" was the debut single release from Eurythmics, taken from their debut album In the Garden. Co-produced by respected krautrock producer Conny Plank, the recordings also featured two members of krautrock band Can. It achieved little commercial success, only #63 in UK.One of the things I love about songs is that they exist outside their background. "Never Gonna Cry Again" exists in the world, exists as 3m05s of melody and rhythm, exists even for those who know nothing about In the Garden, Conny Plank, the UK charts. Whereas the Peloponnesian War can only be remembered in terms of its war-ness, its Peloponnesian-ness, "Never Gonna Cry" can be separated from its conception, its creation, its commercial reception. It can be separated from its singer, composer, and whichever session musician is playing the rinkydink trumpet. Forget everything you know and "Never Gonna Cry" is still a weird and splendid pop song, pulsing and wistful, fiercely determined and hopelessly daft. [buy] Posted by Sean at January 28, 2013 9:34 AM

Frequently Asked Questions
Yes, I offer in salon spray tans, all waxing - including XXX, eyelash and eyebrow tinting, eyelash extensions and sculptured gel nails on hands and feet.What Cosmetics and Products do you use?
Only professional products such as MAC, Napolean, Chanel, and an extensive variety of cosmetics including mineral make up are used. This will ensure all makeup is long-lasting, natural and flawless throughout the day.When should I book you for my Wedding Makeup?
It's important to secure your appointment as early on as possible to avoid your Makeup Artist being unavailable on your Wedding Day. You want not only your special day, but the experience of planning it to run as smoothly and stress free as possible.What makeup is best for photographs?
The style and design (colours) need to be more intense than for everyday appearance due to the effects of lighting. The face can be drained of colour by a high percentage leaving you looking washed out. Also, the use of glitter or shimmer may show up as a " flare" on the finished photograph. You can still get a very soft natural look, it just needs to be applied correctly.Will I need to have any beauty products with me on my wedding day?
Yes, it is a good idea to have a lip liner, lipstick, a clear lip polish and possibly a compressed translucent powder. However, when makeup is applied correctly it will stay put even in hot weather. Lipstick is the one item that will need to be touched up throught out the day.Do you offer false eyelashes? Do I have to wear false eyelashes?
I do offer individual false eyelashes. When we get together to create the look you envision for your day, we can determine together if they are needed and what type, if any. They are popular right now, however a gorgeous look can be achieved with or without them.What make up look is best for my Wedding Day?
Every makeup is individualised to meet your requirements, however, makeup for the bride is usually best when it is soft and feminine.
Some brides have themed weddings and will need make-up to match with the theme they have chosen. It is important to be really open and honest about what you like and don't like and this is discussed on the day of the trial.Do you offer Makeup trials?
Most brides prefer to have a trial with hair and makeup prior to their wedding day. It is not essential, but to make sure that you will be 100 percent happy on the wedding day, a trial is advisable. Trials for bridesmaids are optional and I will go through colours, styles, try lippies on etc. taking notes on your requirements. I will help you make informed decisions on the styles you want. I will spend time to listen to your requests and will offer lots of helpful advice and ideas when asked. However, the final decision on the style is yours. I will be there to give you the guidance you need.
On the trial I will write up a schedule of appointment times and costs for each person on the day then once you are happy a deposit paid at your trial, will secure your booking for your special day.

Carter to Obama: Same Old Story on Energy Policy
The Center for Vision and Values | May 3, 2012
By Jarrett Skorup
As spring bloomed, the president addressed the nation on energy. The president told us, "Without our planning for the future, it will get worse … The oil and natural gas that we rely on for 75 percent of our energy is simply running out.â€
Unless profound changes are made in the next decade, the president warned, the world will demand more oil than it can produce. He called for "strict conservation†and switching to "permanent renewable energy sources like solar power.†Because such sources promise future energy independence—or at least according to the president—his administration would spend billions of taxpayer dollars on wind, solar, and biodiesel, plus offer massive "clean energy†subsidies.
No, the president is not Barack Obama, and the speech was not delivered in 2012. It was President Jimmy Carter, speaking on April 18, 1977.
Since that time, American oil and natural gas production has skyrocketed. The U.S. Energy Information Administration reports that natural gas consumption has doubled since 1980, production is at an all-time high, imports are at a 20-year low and heating expenses are the lowest in a decade. Meanwhile, the latest recession barely affected North Dakota, a state rich in oil and natural gas.
President Carter's speech sounds familiar because it is based on the same flawed assumptions that underlie many current politicians' belief that wise and enlightened central planners in Washington can manage the countless and infinitely complex transactions and calculations that comprise a $14-trillion-dollar national economy.
These politicians hold on to these flawed beliefs despite being regularly embarrassed by them. For example, a recent Capitol Confidential article and video showed President Obama and two senators from Michigan praising a heavily subsidized "green energy†battery manufacturer that is now under severe financial stress and has had its federal money pulled. Another Capitol Confidential piece reported a litany of similar embarrassments on a YouTube channel created by the Michigan Economic Development Corp.
Economist F.A. Harper once wrote, "If the planner could plan discovery for others, he probably would have made that discovery himself in the first place. If he is more able in this respect than the others, he is wasting his time not to do it himself; if he is less able, he can hardly plan it for others who are more able than he is.â€
It's much easier for politicians to make plans with other peoples' money. It would show real leadership for government to actually do less.

Sponsored Deals
They're like ads, but good.
OK, yes, companies pay a little something to be Sponsored Deals. But we don't allow just any old crap in this section. Sponsored Deals are proposed to us by other retailers, manufacturers, and even other daily deal sites. If we find the deal compelling enough that our members will appreciate us bringing it to their attention, we'll feature it here. Believe it or not, we have a reputation to uphold. If your store would like to be considered for this space, please contact us for details. But if your deal is lame, or sketchy, no amount of money will let you buy your way in.
Community Deals
It's whatever you want it to be.
Pretty much, anyway. This is where you find the deals that wooters like you have ferreted out and brought to light. We're thinking it'll turn into a massive database of discounted products from around the Web, constantly expanding to absorb the newest deals from the very moment their prices are slashed, with each deal immediately rated by hordes of savvy voters to spotlight the very greatest deals in the world today. Hey, we can dream, right?
We use a fancy algorithm to determine which deals are catching the most buzz – they're under the Popular tab, which is the default view of this section. You can look for the most popular deals today, this week, or this month. The Fresh tab features the most recently submitted deals, so that's where to look for deals that everybody else doesn't know about yet. And the Search bar does what a Search bar does, only, uh, much wootier! Yeah! Right on!
Ask The Community
They probably won't bite.
Organic bullets? Vegetarian haggis? Cheap tickets to Antarctica? The best high-performance sweatsocks for under $100? If you're looking for a deal that doesn't appear to show up in our Community Deals section, throw the question to your fellow cheapskates. Or answer a question for one of your fellow cheapskates. Or vote for your favorite questions, or your favorite answers, or… maybe we should call this section "Ask, Answer, Comment On, And Vote In The Community", but that won't fit on the page.

Exclusive Safe T Pedal DiscountOct 6th, 2011 | By Pod51 | Category: Featured Items, Lead Article
Welcome To Shirefabrications
Shirefabrications are Specialist's in Land Rover security & modification products.
Their aim is to stamp out Land Rover thefts across the UK. Statistics show that an average of 40 Land Rovers per week are being stolen, they are usually stolen to be broken down for parts and sold on, stolen and cloned or they are simply being stolen to order so that they can be shipped out of the country for re-sale. Insurance premiums for our vehicles are rising steadily with mine alone raising by 28% from last years premium, I have not influenced the increase in my premium but thieves of other Land Rovers have indirectly cost me more. Specialist insurers such as The NFU are rapidly losing interest in insuring our beloved Land Rovers and if even the farmers friend are losing interest then we must take action to protect our vehicles.
Any Land Rover owner will know that we all become attached to our characterful vehicles and we put so much of ourselves into then that they become like an addition to the family. Our Land Rovers become personal to each and every one of us and indiviual to us.
Dont let yours be a statistic.
Shirefabrications manufacture a fantastic product that every Land Rover owner should own, their range covers both Defender and Discovery models and are of very high standards.
Shirefabrications SAFE T PEDAL'S are the latest in Land Rover defender security products.
The Safe T Pedal range has been designed with CAD to ensure that they exactly fit our Land Rovers footwells perfectly. The Safe T Pedal follows the contours of your footwell with 3 precise bends to eliminate being removed without a key.
The material's used on the Safe T Pedals are extremely high quality components and the steel is laser cut out of 5mm thick steel sheet, the locks used on this product have been given a security rating of 9 with 10 being the highest. The Safe T Pedal product is then finished in bright yellow powder coat which is extremely hard wearing & creates a highly visual deterrent to any potential thief.
This device is fitted in seconds unlike some competitors locks which are very time consuming.
Carl of Shirefabrications has been gracious enough to agree to offer a discount to readers of RepairMyLandrover , anyone that orders one of the Safe T Pedal products and mentions RepairmyLandrover will receive a £5.00 discount on their purchase. If you would like to place an order for a Safe T Pedal then you can either :-
- Visit their website http://shirefabrications.com/home
- Visit their ebay store http://www.ebay.co.uk/sch/shirefabrication/m.html?_trksid=p4340.l2562
- Contact Carl direct via email Shire Fabrication
Don't Forget – If you place an order and mention that you saw the products on RepairMyLandrover they will apply a £5 Discount to the Safe T Pedal
Peace of mind can come cheaper with a little help from RepairMyLandrover and Shirefabrication

Hi Carl,
I am thrilled to bits with this Defender Security Pedal Lock. My Ebay feedback cannot do it justice. It is absolutely superb. It is so sturdy and what a brilliant idea. It is so well engineered – I cannot see how it can be removed without the key. My wife reckons only a bomb would remove it. Hence, I have total confidence that this the best Landrover Defender Security measure on the market. I have looked at competitor products like the 'Clutch Claw', but this can be defeated with hydraulics to prise the metal components apart. This can't be achieved with the Security Pedal Lock, as all the works are enclosed by heavy grade sheet steel. The Pedal Lock steel and components are of top grade steel, even oxyacetylene would struggle to pierce the steel. I think even the Landrover Company would be proud to be associated with this product, as it lives upto Landrover quality and sturdiness. Excellent product. Highly recommended. You can use this text Carl, if you wish, in your adverts.

Greetings, Friends of Standing Rock Cultural Arts!
We reach out with bittersweet yet exciting news. After 22 years at our 257 N. Water Street location, the last 14 years as a 501(c)(3) charitable nonprofit organization, we have been notified that our home has been sold. All tenants must vacate the building within the month.
Although SRCA shares many fond memories at 257, we are ecstatic to announce that we have secured a prime gallery and workshop space nearby, in a solid, historic building with beautiful character at 300 N. Water. This space is directly next to our friends at the FJ Kluth Gallery.
To build on that potential, SRCA has set a goal of raising $5,000 by October 30, 2014 to match previous funds given in support of this great new space. In order to open doors to the community on November 1st, SRCA needs your support! We need to purchase an access ramp for differently abled guests and artists. Our ultimate goal is to implement a city-approved permanent ramp. We are also renovating aged flooring, and need to purchase track lighting.
Funds in excess of the $5,000 goal will be placed into an earmarked account, the Building Promise Fund, for current and future facility needs. SRCA continues to plan for an all-inclusive structure to house the arts in all forms as we move into the next phase of our development.
As you may know, communities with successful arts organizations have less crime, a stronger local economy, and students with higher test scores. And as we all know as arts lovers, the arts open avenues and worlds to all of us no matter what our walks of life.
SRCA believes programs, such as our New World Children's Theatre, Downtown Innovative Community Events, poetry readings, workshops, exhibits, music concerts, dance performances, and film festivals contribute to the quality of life in Kent. Most programming is friendly for all ages and celebrates the wealth of creative talent in our area. SRCA believes the cultural, educational, and economic value is evident.
We ask friends like you who support this mission to contribute a tax-deductible gift of $25 or more today. If you are not in a position to give $25, please consider giving $5 or $10. Any amount helps and is greatly appreciated. Donations can be made by check payable to SRCA or by Paypal (see "Donate" button below).
As an incentive for your donation of $15 or more, your name will be entered into a drawing for a chance to win prizes worth $25 value or more. SRCA looks forward to the next 22 years of building community through the arts and providing arts access for all. Please join us in this exciting new phase!
Community through the Arts!

Sustainability Grant from the Ohio Arts Council
August 28, 2013
Standing Rock Cultural Arts is proud to announce that we have received a Sustainability Grant from the Ohio Arts Council for our future operations and programming.
The Sustainability Grant will help cover our operational expenses for fiscal years 2014 and 2015. We are honored to be one of the selected arts organizations to receive funding for this competitive grant.
This is what the OAC Panel said in their evaluation of our application:
Panel Meeting Summary Comments:
a. strong evaluation methods outlined in application
b. great organizational partners involved in programming
c. impressive amount of programming generated on small budget
d. organization continues to minimize cultural barriers to access programming
e. evidence of successful partnerships
f. applicant encouraged to update website and remove outdated information
g. marketing initiatives needed to broaden audience and increase attendance at events
h. organization is innovative; takes artwork into the community
i. great track record interacting with kids
OAC Sustainability Grants
The Sustainability program provides general operating support to arts and cultural organizations across Ohio that make important contributions to the health and vitality of our communities. Sustainability grants ensure that public support of the arts continues to play an integral role in celebrating the rich past and sustaining the vibrant future of Ohio's cultural legacy through flexible and reliable funding for annual arts programming. A rigorous application and review process assures citizens and legislators that Sustainability grantees use public funds resourcefully and responsibly. Organizations must demonstrate excellent artistic, educational and cultural value; responsiveness to their community; credible planning and evaluation strategies; and a high level of financial and managerial accountability. When these characteristics are in balance, organizations are well-positioned to provide Ohioans with diverse opportunities to participate in the arts and enjoy their benefits throughout their lives.

Yes To Blueberries: Age Refresh
These products are designated for age damaged or mature skin. Key ingredients in this line include blueberries, cotton thistle and paracress flower.
Don't feel like you have to stick with just one Yes To family for all of your skin care needs. You can mix and match the products you use within the families to treat your skin type and address your specific skin concerns. All Yes To products are at least 95% natural, use recyclable packaging and are cruelty-free. Yes To even donates a portion of their proceeds from every product sold to the Yes To Seed Fund, their non-profit organization that donates money, supplies and time to help less fortunate communities to promote healthier lifestyles by helping them grow and maintain their own gardens that yield organic produce.
Finally, an all-natural, effective and affordable skin care line that supports local communities, is good for the skin and is available in most local drugstores. I'll say Yes To that!

Author To Swim 2.4 Miles to His Book Signing
San Francisco journalist and surfer Jaimal Yogis will swim to his book event in San Francisco tonight.
The author plans to talk about The Fear Project: What Our Most Primal Emotion Taught Me about Survival, Success, Surfing…and Love and sign books after the grueling swim. You can also watch the swim live online.
Check it out: "Swimming in the chilly San Francisco Bay may not be the way most people would choose to arrive at their first book signing, especially in the dead of winter, and especially at night … Departing around 4:15 PM, Yogis and famous ultra swimmer Jamie Patrick — one of the elite athletes Yogis profiles in his book — will swim the 2.4-mile length of the Bay Bridge between Yerba Buena Island and the Embarcadero. There, the two will climb ashore for Yogis' first talk and signing at Book Passage in the San Francisco Ferry Building. The event begins at 6:30 PM."

About the Human Rights Commission
The Human Rights Commission was created to provide better protection of human rights in New Zealand. It works for a fair, safe and just society, where diversity is valued, human rights are respected, and everyone is able to live free from prejudice and unlawful discrimination.
The Human Rights Commission's job is to:
- advocate and promote respect for human rights in New Zealand
- encourage harmonious relations between individuals and among the diverse groups in New Zealand
- lead, evaluate, monitor and advise on equal employment opportunities
- provide information to the public about discrimination and to help resolve complaints about discrimination.
There are eight Human Rights Commissioners, the Chief Commissioner, the Equal Employment Opportunities Commissioner, the Race Relations Commissioner and five part-time Commissioners.
The Director of Human Rights Proceedings heads up an independent office within the Commission, the Office of Human Rights Proceedings, Te Tari Whakatau Take Tika Tangata. The Director decides whether to provide legal representation for people who have complained of breaches of the Human Rights Act, 1993. Proceedings are heard in the Human Rights Review Tribunal.
The Commissioners and the Director must act independently and are supported by staff in Auckland, Wellington and Christchurch.
Human rights enquiries and complaints service
The Human Rights Commission offers a free, confidential service for members of the public with human rights enquiries and complaints of unlawful discrimination.
The Commission's dispute resolution process is limited to unlawful discrimination complaints. However the Commission also addresses broader human rights issues. These include human rights issues other than discrimination relating, for example to disability, housing, education, detention, employment and race relations.
What the Commission does
- advocates for human rights
- inquires into infringements of human rights
- makes public statements on human rights and race relations
- promotes understanding of the human rights dimensions of the Treaty of Waitangi
- conducts human rights programmes, activities and education
- publishes guidelines and voluntary codes of practice
- receives and invites public representations on human rights
- brings proceedings and intervenes in court on human rights issues
- reports to the Prime Minister on how New Zealand complies with international human rights standards and legislation
- develops the national plan of action for human rights (the first plan was released as Mana ki te Tangata / the New Zealand Action Plan for Human Rights on 31 March 2005)
- provides a service to deal with enquiries and complaints about discrimination
- through the Office of Human Rights Proceedings offers legal representation at the Human Rights Review Tribunal.
International accreditation
The Human Rights Commission is a member of the Asia Pacific Forum of National Human Rights Institutions and of the International Coordinating Committee of national human rights institutions. It holds "A" status accreditation, which is the United Nations prerequisite for participation in the Human Rights Council. The accreditation, reviewed every five years, requires the Commission to fully comply with the standards set out in the United Nations Paris Principles. The Paris Principles set out the responsibilities, status and functions of national human rights institutions.

How would you like to pick songs for a day for the Bellagio fountains in Las Vegas? Or make a cameo appearance in a Cirque du Soleil production?
Those are among the exclusive experiences that you can win under MGM Resorts International's revamped loyalty program, now called M Life.
MGM Resorts International has revamped its loyalty program so that it considers not only high rollers' casino spending, but spending on everything you do - dine at a celebrity chef restaurant, party at a nightclub or catch Cirque du Soleil's Beatles Love show at the Mirage.
And MGM's made rewards more interesting.
Besides comped hotel rooms, now you can earn unusual, exclusive experiences along the lines of what Starwood's SPG Moments offers. You could, for instance.
Rewards include: discounted or comped hotel rooms, access to pre-sale show tickets, members-only events, priority reservations, room upgrades, VIP services and more; as members move up to new Tier Levels, they'll enjoy greater rewards and earn them faster
Members have the convenience of carrying one card to earn points and redeem rewards at 15 participating MGM Resorts' properties, including ARIA, Bellagio, Vdara, MGM Grand, The Signature at MGM Grand, Mandalay Bay, THEhotel at Mandalay Bay, The Mirage, Monte Carlo, New York-New York, Luxor and Excalibur in Las Vegas; Gold Strike and Beau Rivage in Mississippi; and MGM Grand Detroit
Bill Hornbuckle, MGM Resorts' chief marketing officer,
Skeptics, however, abound.
"MGM Resorts is making an effort to transform the way Las Vegas doles out rewards, but is it too little, too late?," ponders Motley Fool.
"On the surface, MGM's efforts look like a step in the right direction. Las Vegas Strip casinos now get 60% of their revenue from non-gambling sources, so giving customers rewards for dining, shopping and gambling makes a lot of sense," the Motley Fool article says. "But the execution has been anything but smooth. With the launch already delayed, the blogosphere has been ripping the M Life program, questioning whether MGM has any loyalty for its customers.
Readers: What's your take on MGM's revamped loyalty program?
MGM Resorts' goal was to make it transparent and easy to use, so there's one card to use at 12 MGM Resort properties. New members start at the Sapphire Tier Level and move up to Pearl, Gold and Platinum, respectively.
The company had some catching up to do, relative to competition, Hornbuckle admits.
"It was a key element that was missing, and we weren't as good as we wanted to be," he told Hotel Check-In.
The program also takes the mystery out of the perks that you earn while gambling in a casino. The new program also lets you track your points via mlife.com, special M life kiosks in hotels, on slot machines and via a mobile app.
"It was redesigned to be aspirational. Giving people a reason to stay at an MGM property vs. potentially walking across the street is a key objective," he says.

The featured product above is the Asian surface wetness anomaly. It shows several large positive anomalies across southeast Asia. The greatest anomalies were across parts of extreme east India and Bangladesh. This is the third month in a row with positive anomalies in parts of southeast Cambodia, Thailand and Vietnam. According to media reports, flooding across eastern India and Bangladesh has killed more than 700 people with hundreds still missing. Rescue workers used boats and military helicopters to help some of the millions of people washed out of their homes by floods. Early monsoon rains which began in July have wrought havoc along the Mekong river and its tributaries running through Cambodia, Vietnam, Laos, and Thailand. More than 4.5 million people have been affected, most severely in the large delta in southeastern Cambodia and southern Vietnam, where the Mekong meanders before feeding into the South China Sea. In Cambodia, the National Committee of Disaster Management declared a state of emergency in 14 of 23 Cambodian provinces. Media reports indicate this years monsoon floods were the worst to occur in 30 years and have affected more than 2.2 million individuals - 20% of the country's population. In contrast, negative wetness anomalies associated with drought conditions were prevalent across parts of western India and eastern Pakistan. Large negative wetness anomalies were noted in central China stretching into northeastern China. Additional details and global regional information are available in other sections of this report.

AP News
Swisher Hygiene CEO Steven Berrard steps down
CHARLOTTE, N.C. (AP) — Swisher Hygiene's President and CEO Steven Berrard has resigned.
The cleaning sanitation products and services provider said Monday that Executive Vice President Thomas Byrne will take over as interim president and CEO. Byrne, 50, has served as executive vice president since November 2010.
Berrard, who is one of Swisher Hygiene Inc.'s biggest shareholders, will remain a board member.
Separately, Swisher Hygiene said Monday that it received a letter from the Nasdaq last week saying that it is not in compliance with its listing requirements, since the company did not file its second-quarter financial results on time. The company, which previously announced an audit committee investigation, also has not filed its financials for 2011 and the first quarter of 2012.
Swisher Hygiene has until Sept. 26 to make all the financial filings. It also must provide an update to its original plan by Aug. 30 in order to remain listed on the Nasdaq.
Berrard cited the financial review in a statement explaining giving up the company's leadership. "In order to facilitate completion of the 2011 audit process, and in order to better focus my energies on the strategic direction of Swisher Hygiene, I believe it is in the best interest of the company and its shareholders for me to step down as president and chief executive officer." he said.
Byrne said the Charlotte, N.C. company is hoping to finish its accounting review and file its financial statements for 2011 as soon as possible.
Shares of Swisher Hygiene fell 22 cents, or 10.9 percent, to $1.85 in morning trading. The stock has traded in a 52-week range of $1.51 to $5.23.

RPK-Infernal DragonComments3

RPK-Infernal Dragon is an RPK variant with a dragon themed design, similar to other beast weapons. It was first released along with the AWM-Infernal Dragon.
- Infernal Dragon (most versions).
- Serpent Dragon (South America).
- Panlong Dragon (China).
- Dragon (Russia).
The RPK-ID has various effects to its owner and every other players in the room. The effects are:
- 200% Exp bonus for the owner
- 30% Exp bonus for everybody in the same room
- 20% GPs bonus for everybody in the same room
- 50% Points bonus in Zombie Mode for the owner
- 10% points bonus in Zombie Mode for everybody
- Addtionnal twenty bullets for every machine gun owned
Thus meaning the owner will have 170 ammo by default on his RPK-ID or 190 if he owns two and equips both. If he trades the gun, the ammo will be 150 for whoever picks it up.
- Unlike the Points Bonus glitch, the RPK-ID owner will receive the 60% Bonus on-the-fly during ZM match. This applies to both score against zombies/mechs and the Clear Bonus points at the end of each rounds (kill streaks in EMD Lab excluded). This ensures that user with RPK-ID will always get the most points for themselves before anyone else, and in case they get kicked/disconnected, they will still be able to keep some prizes.
- The points bonus in ZM is displayed after each round ends, except the last round and Mission Bonus, though players will still receive full bonus points.
- Due to its various bonuses and fair price, the RPK-ID is considered the best VIP gun released up to date. It is highly recommended for players who like Mutation and Zombie Mode, although the Thompson-ID could also be considered.

This program met all the requirements I wanted for my pet health records. I like that I can list primary, secondary, etc. Vets with their phone #s and that touching the phone icon dials the vet's office. What I like most about the app is the Emergency Icon that lists the Animal ER's info and will dial the ER. No more having to look up the ER's phone number and dialing it in an emergency.

everytime i fill the form with photo and hit save its not there leave off photo it saves but won't let you add photo photo option pointless and waste time entering info that doesn't save

I love this app. The new updates flow nicely, there are many features that work well with all my dogs information. Its so nice to have an app to have all of my pets needs in one place that works well like the vet, or even emergency vets. Love it. Thanks Purina !
