Tell me if I asking for too much.
My bf broke up with me last Feb b/c we had a long expanding drift over his money situation. He's 60 yo, has no savings, still working as hard as ever (as a solo practioner attorney) for not very much money. At the time was in danger of losing his house bought at the peak 2007.
Shortly after we broke up, I met Mr. Belgium. We corresponded 5 months. I visited him last September and clearly this wasn't going to work. I was so exhausted after this experience. After this I thought about my ex bf and felt well, maybe he's not so bad. At least he's kind. I came back to my bf. He told me besides the unexpected mortgage remod (so now is able to keep the house), his view about money hasn't changed so why did I want to get back together. I told him how I felt, that I realized he's a kind person and we could manage. At that time, he was seeing an old gf of his which I don't think was serious for either of them. Anyway, he stopped seeing her and we're back together again.
Now, I'm starting to feel again maybe this isn't the best I could have. Don't know. Maybe I could still meet someone just as kind, w/o as much baggage, who's more financially stable. OTOH, while he has a career that has been supporting him in the past 30+ yrs, he makes enough to support himself and his obligations. Why not enjoy the R/S as it is?
How does one know?

Okay everyone.. Hold the phones. (do they still say that?)
I just read JT response to this and hey everyone do you see how differently a man's emotions and thoughts are so different than a woman.. Most of us women responded with a type of emotional component to our message. Like awwwwwwwwwww just stay with him because he isnt so bad blah blah blah but JT responded with the exact point on what is going on here. So you see how women and men just as we always knew think way different from each other..
JT..I would hope that people took their relationships and finances seriously but we all befall on things we have no control over. Now we do make choices and yes I suffer now because I made some doozies .. Some things are a choice and some are bad luck or unforseen circumstances and life.. Now i have no idea what happened to Satins guy in life or he is just bad with money.. Lets say he had to pay alimony and child support or he had medical issues and he has limited funds because of that.. Or does he just throw his money away and spend foolishly..
I keep saying its the value of the person as you have stated JT......... Not the money ...........................I would date a man treated me well but he had no money because he became upon hard times as I have and going on a picnic would be fine with me.. I dont need to be wined and dined.. nor do material things mean that much to me.. Now if the guy had money and he threw it away on things that didnt matter that would bother me..
As far as women well the guy is 60 and maybe got lonely so he reached back out to his exgfriend.. There could have been a reason for it.. At times I reached out to by crazy exHusband because there was no one to rely on and I needed someone to talk to or go to lunch with because yes I was an emotional mess at the time.. thank goodness that is over but at the time it was what was okay in the moment..
Lie is n ot all cookie cutter and roses and to discard someone because of circumstances or bad choices in this time where its hard to find someone to me doesnt seem like a great idea.

@ White Satin - sorry but in my opinion yes, you are absolutely asking for too much
@ Shywon - * He doesn't want anything serious and I wonder if his financials are why* - sorry but in my opinion and experience it has nothing to do with his finances but all to do with the *he is just not that into you*..
Best of luck for you both.

Considering the guy is 60, do you think he'll want kids? But I do agree that kids are expensive. My ex has a really nice never married friend who is an architect. He'd buy everybody else's kids (even mine who he didn't know that long) nice presents for Christmas, so one of my kids asked "Is uncle Scott rich?" I said "He never had kids--that's why he has money." lol
But I also think that there is some kind of sexism going on--if a man has a nice career and makes a lot of money, usually he doesn't want to reject a woman who has a job but doesn't make that much because men are socialized to support the family, but if a woman makes a lot of money, she might reject a guy who makes less than her even if he's a hard worker and otherwise decent because she doesn't want to support him--but in that case, if they are younger, why can't she work & have him stay home & take care of the kids? There are situations like that even if they are unusual.
|Mon, 01-14-2013 - 3:39pm
CFK.. I keep thinking about this and after I read the resonses I am feeling more confused about it (lol)
I guess what I am saying is that I speak from the voice of experience in all matters of the heart and money.. When I was married to my exH we had money and a nice house and vacations and cars and it was very nice.. Only thing he was a NUT case and abusive.. So I knew that I was going to struggle again when I divorced him but I wasnt thinking of that at the time.. All I was thinking was I want out of this and I will hope for the best.. I have stated in previous posts that I do miss that lifestyle but fast forward to now and if I met a man who was healthy and had money that would be icing on the cake and that would be great.. Atleast I wouldnt have to pay for him nor support him hopefully ...
Now lets say I met a guy who was so nice and all but had limited funds I would probably date him also and as long as he didnt rely on me for money it would be okay I guess. I wouldnt want to be the one to support both of us or even him..but if he didnt have savings or retirement and just had some income I think that would be okay with me .. Not sure but I would hope that money wouldnt come in the way of liking someone.. I mean how much longer is our lifespan anyway at my age .. I would be happy just to have someone to go on a picnic with. (ha ha)or maybe that is how I feel today because I am alone and lonely.. I will let you know when I meet a poor guy who has nothing..
Awwwww.. Yes; my friend is lucky eh!! I even bought a whole meal once to make pot roast and stew because he wanted a low fat meal. So I bought all of the indredients with my own money and made the whole stew thing.. and he even took some of the leftovers home..but I am creative so I enjoyed the new recipe and enjoyed cooking it.. It was night when sis wasnt going to be home so I had the kitchen to myself and it was fun .. So when N came over we had the meal and watched a sci fi movie and it was fun.. It works both ways I guess.
|Mon, 01-14-2013 - 3:07pm
I absolutely know what you mean. I was actually thinking when I typed that, that a lot of men marry women with less income (I would assume) fairly regularly. I guess my comment is a little sexist, maybe or perhaps there's another word for it? I'm just being honest, though. I wouldn't want the financial burden of taking care of someone else. However, I wouldn't expect my partner to bear that re$pon$ibilty either.
That's sweet of you to treat your friend. He's lucky to have you!
|Mon, 01-14-2013 - 1:05pm
Oh; well the guy is a lawyer and sounds like he is taking care of his financial stuff no?? At his age of 60 he will have a problem as he ages with health and might need someone to take care of him? I am 58 and I am not as I was when I was younger. These are just facts of life.
So lets say this guy goes into retirement with no money and he is broke and he has to work till he is 70 what kind of quality of life is there for him then?? He might need someone to take care of him??
Yikes.. I have no idea what I mean now.. (lol)
My guy friend whom I go out with is dirt poor and he is 58.. He works but never has any money or its rare that he ever has money.. When we go out we go dutch treat but there were times I paid for him and he paid me back .. I dont care because I enjoy his company and its not like its a lot of money.. It might be going to a diner for like 20.00 or something..
|Mon, 01-14-2013 - 11:04am
Free, I may be wrong, but I usually assume that the reason they want someone as financially set as them, or better, is so he can take care of himself, basically. If I'm barely scraping by, I wouldn't be able to take care of another person, were he to fall ill or something.
|Mon, 01-14-2013 - 5:52am
It sounds to me like you feel as though you are settling with this guy. I know the money thing really bothers you, so I'm not sure you'll be able to overcome this. In general, when people break up, it's rare that they can get back together, especially if nothing has changed. And at 60, there's not a lot of time left for him to make money (assuming he retires at 65 or even 67).
On the other hand, you say he is kind. But do you love him? Do you feel attracted to him?
|Sun, 01-13-2013 - 10:31pm
I know what you are saying shy loud and clear and yes one needs money to have kids but I raised a child alone with no money when his dad decided to leave us when he was a baby... Yes it was hard and I wouldnt wish that on my worst enemy but we did it. I did it and my son is the best person ever.. Yes; i did have my family but we had no money and all turned out thank God pretty well.
Plus if someone waits so long to have a kid because of the money most people wont have kids because there will never be enough money.. I have heard it cost 1 million to raise kids.. Who has that kind of money in theory..

Notes on the leaky pipeline: realism or disillusionment? [Updated]
By Sarah Webb on May 2, 2012
[Update in italics: May 3, 2012] After I wrote this post PLoS ONE published a paper that fits nicely with the points I was making.] Beryl Benderly's blog post over at Science Careers caught my eye yesterday because she mentions a 2008 report from the UK about the retention of women chemistry PhDs in academia.

Lovely light facial wash, leaving skin fresh.
I have very sensitive skin yet I can use this on my face with no problems at all.
I use this morning & night and find it super. I do wish it came in a larger size as it only seems to last for two weeks..........
Best product!
Fantastic product just a shame it's not in a bigger size x
Gentle face wash that leaves skin squeaky clean.
Use to watch face daily - refreshing and gentle on skin - good quality product
Daily use helps keep breakouts under control.
As someone with extremely dry and sensistive skin, this product is excellent. Soothing and beautifully scented.
Use this morning and evening, lovely smell, does not dry my skin
Beautiful smell but doesn't always foam up as much as I'd like. Very nice product though
I've been using this instead of soap for years and it's great. It leaves my skin feeling fresh and cleansed.
I use this product every day. It leaves my face feeling fresh but not too astringent. A definite great buy.
I love this product! Cleans really well, even though it does not foam much when used. Very happy
Purchased for my daughter (for second time)
I use this a couple of times a week with my clairisonic face brush, especially if I have been in London or gardening.
I use it as a cure for my occasional spots and love the texture and how quickly it gets rid of my blemishes. It doesn't dry the skin and smells nice too.
A lovely, fresh scented cleanser, doesn't foam up much but thats what happens when you take out all the nasties! :) I swapped my old face wash for this one a few months back and I find it works well, I will certainly be using it from now on!
The quality is excellent and I use it twice a day to wash my face. It suits my skin and keeps it clean and young.
Brilliant.leaves my skin very clean and free from oils
Lovely gentle facewash, great for problem/combination skin - very balancing.
Great smell and doesn't dry my skin
Good value, easy to use and nice smell
I've only just started to use the product and it's too early to say. I'm hoping it will help reduce skin oiliness and prevent blackheads.
I use this product every day. It is really nice to use and has a lovely scent and leaves the skin feeling soft. It also removes all traces of make-up. My skin has started to lose its dullness and looks brighter. I will certainly be re-ordering. Would definitely recommend.
Am sensitive to many facial washes but this one does not irritate my skin at all.
It is lovely.i use it every morning.i am allergyc to dyes,so I am hapy I am able to use personal care products and make up with no problems.thank you green people!
Good but no foaming
I absolutely love this product.
Leaves skin feeling refreshed and clean.
I like this. Face feels clean without 'soap' feeling.
I use the product daily. Great foam, feels and smells lovely and leaves your skin clean and soft, without drying it out.
I use this product in the mornings as I find it light and refreshing. I would recommend it to anyone requiring a light face wash product.
use this every morning and find it really skin refreshing, and minimises th risk of skin breakouts.
Used every night to cleanse and soften skin. For all skin types and ages.
i like this foam and how it leaves the skin after washing. smell is not too nice, but it does the work it supposed to do
Would have liked it a bit more 'lathery' but I suppose that's just being used to SLS in the past; having said that, it takes off my heavy duty mascara in a flash! V.impressed with product
Great product, I use it daily. A little goes a long way.
It's good, but I don't think it's great at cleansing pores and removing trapped dirt etc.
A lovely facial wash for my combination skin
The quality of the face wash is beautiful! I always thought foaming face cleansers were ineffective and dried out my skin too much, which would result in an increase in acne. But this product is extreamly gentle and helps balance the oil and moisture levels.

We started to use the GoAnywhere about three years back.This grill beats out all others. It runs very steady with just few coals for indirect grilling or on high heat for steak.
On the grill we made long term jobs over hours and got out very tender food. Our neighbours on camp grounds often ask what this is for a grill and they are amazed. I added a thermometer just by sticking one through the vent and have good overview about the temperature.
Once we made smoked mussles in the shell - oh what lovely. This recipie is from one Weber restaurant in Chicago (Lombard).

I bought long time ago this Grill back when I was living in Mexico. I used to grill every week with it. This grill has proven since then that is one of the best portable grills out in the market. Its very practic to carry around, excellent performance with its side ventilation system you can achieve excellent results. Unfortunately I had to leave it in Mexico as I could not take it when moving to the States.
After some years I moved to Germany.. and thought of grilling again. My first choice.. a Weber-GoAnywhere grill, its still surprises me how well it has lasted throught this years.. even a hammer fell on top of it and the coating is almost intact. The aluminum parts have become a little bit rusty but considering here the weather is a little bit extreme i would say its expected.
The only thing I do find a difference between the model i bought back in 2006 and the one I own since 2011 is that the handels seem to screw a little bit loose, specially the upper one on the lid.
Besides that, I just got a new GAS one (Also GoAnywhere 2014) and will see how it performs!

I bought my first Go-Anywhere charcoal grill about 1985. At that time it had wooden handles, but otherwise is identical to the current model. It served very well when I had limited space for a grill, big enough for two steaks done just right. The only thing I noticed was that when I set it on a wood table, and left it going for a while, eventually it started to char the wood. My solution was to turn the wood over (it was a big piece of thick plywood in wood frame) and put a heat block under the grill next time. When I moved to a bigger place around 1997 I eventually got a larger grill, and the little Weber was left to fend for itself sort of unceremoniously set outside to brave the elements. Needless to say, the wood handles deteriorated and the legs got rusty, but the main part of the grill was actually in very good shape. I attribute this to the high quality of the bottom and lid portions of the grill.
Meanwhile I got a much larger (different brand) charcoal grill (with wheels) as well as a big stainless grill/rotisserie). Both work well, but I find it's overkill when just preparing food for one or two people. I also got a portable little Smokey Joe but over time its little legs rusted off. Probably because I also set it outside too long!
Recently I started planning a camping trip in my van, and I wanted to bring along a small charcoal grill. I located the little forlorn Weber. Unfortunately the cooking grate for it had been misplaced and probably accidentally discarded - and Weber doesn't currently offer replacements. Because of the situation with the wood handles I decided just to get a new grill.
First I got a Chinese made "Master Forge" portable charcoal grill at Lowe's. It took me two hours to assemble the thing. I noticed that the metal was thin and flimsy, and the porcelain coating flaked off just during assembly. It was just too cheaply made, especially when compared side by side with the old Weber. I decided while it might fit the basic needs it just was too shoddy to keep. So I found a Go Anywhere Charcoal grill at the local Ace Hardware. I'm pleased to say it's got the same heavy duty, quality construction as the original, and I look forward to cooking with it on the road. The Master Forge is going back to Lowe's for a refund.
What I like about the Weber Go-Anywhere Charcoal Grill:
1) Thick gauge metal with durable porcelain coating inside and out.
2) Well thought out damper setup providing even air flow across entire coal bed.
3) Excellent side handle placement.
4) Fully enclosed and smooth bottom section means it can be transported without it scratching anything underneath it, or leaking any remaining ashes.
5) Compact and just the right size for one to four burgers or two big steaks.
6) Ingenious leg system that doubles as lid lock for transport.

text: Hi Martin, > If I store them as drawables in the same Geode, I can create a surface mesh of just the top and bottom by having the same vertex array and different Geometry drawables. Actually, you can give any drawables the same vertex array if you want, even if the drawables are not part of the same Geode. Does this resolve your problems? > osg::Geometry doesn't have a nodemask - how can I control which drawables are drawn? All drawables of a geode are drawn. You can work around that somewhat by attaching an empty osg::Drawable::DrawCallback to a drawable (i.e. one that doesn't call drawable->drawImplementation(renderInfo); in its drawImplementation() method). This will cause the drawable not to be drawn. When you want it to be drawn again you just remove the callback. But it's easier to use separate Geodes and use the nodemasks on Geodes. > Or is there any easy way to say, draw points 0-n, or n-m osg::DrawArrays does this...

The NanoBio Lab focuses on the fundamentals, implications, and technological applications of biological charge transfer, using environmental microbes as model systems. This is a highly interdisciplinary area, drawing from the toolboxes of nanoscience, condensed matter physics, electrochemistry, and environmental microbiology. In contrast to solid state systems (e.g. metals and semiconductors), where the mechanisms of charge transfer are well understood, with immense technological consequences ranging from computers to solar cells, comparatively little is known about the physics of biological charge transfer, especially over long distances. This is an immense knowledge gap, as charge transfer lies at the heart of cellular respiration. The research in this group examines the physics of the problem over large length scales and in the full biological context of microbial physiology and biotic-abiotic interactions. Specifically, the group focuses on extracellular electron transfer by environmental microbes which have evolved a remarkable ability to transfer electrons to solid acceptors such as environmental minerals, essentially allowing them to "breathe rocks". But how can a microbe interact with and transfer energy to a solid outside the cell itself? In addition to learning about the basic science, we are exploiting our understanding of the charge transfer for renewable energy recovery in biological fuel cells, and developing new nanomaterials for energy conversion.
This group includes Professor Moh El-Naggar. Current research topics include:

Theoretical Biological Physics
The Theoretical Biological Physics group seeks a mechanistic understanding of biological phenomena in terms of physical models. Current research mainly concerns the physical basis for the organization, dynamics, shape, and signaling properties of cell membranes. Pertinent theoretical concepts are sharpened and put to the test in the context of specific biological phenomena exhibited by cell membranes, such as the formation and regulation of membrane domains of synaptic receptor molecules, chemotactic signaling across cell membranes, and elastic interactions between mechanosensitive membrane proteins and the surrounding lipid bilayer. The overall aim of the Theoretical Biological Physics group is to uncover novel physical mechanisms underlying living systems and, on this basis, to suggest new experimental approaches for the quantitative control of living systems.
This group includes Professor Christoph Haselwandter. Current research topics include
Group Website: Theoretical Biological Physics Group
Computational Physics
The high performance computing and simulation group has considerable experience in multiscale simulations combining density functional, molecular dynamics, and finite element schemes on a Grid of distributed parallel supercomputers and immersive and interactive visualization platforms. Their group is investigating molecular mechanisms of small interfering RNA (siRNA) interaction with phospholipid membranes, cholesterol flip-flop dynamics in lipid bilayers, and pore formation in lipid membranes due to shock–induced collapse of nanobubbles. Their group is also involved in hybrid quantum mechanical-atomistic-mesoscale simulations of ion transport and translocation of biopolymers such as DNA and RNA through nanometer scale pores and channels in solid-state fluidic devices that underlie "lab-on-a-chip" technology, single nanotube nanofluidic transistors, and solid-state nanopore "microscopy" for molecular structure and high-speed sequencing. They are also investigating thermomechanical properties of three-dimensional crystalline structures of nanometer size particles functionalized with DNA and self-assembled with molecular-scale spatial precision using programmable interactions.
This group includes Professors Rajiv Kalia, Aiichiro Nakano, Priya Vashishta. Current research topics include:
The group is also involved in hybrid quantum mechanical-atomistic-mesoscale simulations of:
Group Website: Collaboratory for Advanced Computing and Simulations
Computational Condensed Matter Physics
We are collaborating with a team of USC neuroscientists in an NIH sponsored Biomedical Research Project on modeling and simulating glutamate receptors. During this project, we have developed exciting numerical tools that allow us to discover and study the relevant mechanisms and conditions at the synaptic level which participate in the conversion of incoming neurotransmitter spikes into action potentials. Together with our collaborators, Bouteiller, Baudry and Berger, this has already resulted in an efficient system level simulation tool that allows a better understanding of the mechanisms regulating synaptic transmission and plasticity.. The contribution of the computational condensed matter group to this has been the development and application of a multi-parameter optimization algorithm, which matches these simulations with multiple experimental measurements, thus identifying realistic and relevant parameter sets. Ultimately, this technique will enable us to approach questions addressing learning and neural plasticity in a much more quantitative manner, and harness this new and powerful method to predict experiments and to control and strategically manipulate neural networks.

I'm like my mom this way. I love a good burger.
On our summer trips to visit my Grandma in San Francisco, my dad would make a huge bed in the back of the Suburban and my sister and I would travel the 600 miles there and 600 miles back sprawled out in the lap of luxury on a 6 inch styrofoam bed, surrounded by magic markers, books and games.
Our road trips were pre-seatbelts, pre-DVD, pre-books on tape and even pre-VHS or Sony Walkman. Raise your hand if you're wondering what those are. Oh my, oh my, oh my..
So we made our own fun: played the alphabet game from road signs and passing 18-wheelers, created solar systems that hung from the ceiling of the rig and generally had a blast when we weren't drawing invisible dividing lines defining our personal space.
Whenever we'd stop for lunch, my mom would always have the same thing: a cheeseburger. Her mantra: no matter how greasy the spoon, you can rarely go wrong with a burger.
This is one of my go-to favorite burgers, this time served up in the form of a slider. I think the secret to the burger is all about the Chipotle ketchup. I make it and keep it on hand for hot dogs too, it's become that addicting.
The ground chicken thighs give the burger a jolt of juiciness that you don't get with the leaner breast meat or ground turkey. And since ground chicken is sometimes a challenge to find, go ahead and give the turkey a try. You might just need an extra slather of chipotle ketchup but I for one don't see anything wrong with that.
Recently, Lori of Recipe Girl and her family were on their cross-country tour and made an overnight stop in Salt Lake City.
Carrian of Oh Sweet Basil, Lindsey of Cafe Johnsonia, Deborah of Taste and Tell, Lori of Recipe Girl, Dara of Cookin' Canuck, Maria of Two Peas and Their Pod and me: Heidi of FoodieCrush
It was the perfect excuse to host an impromtu BBQ, complete with a few local food bloggers pimping out their mad cooking skills plus Lori's son and pre-teen food blogger Recipe Boy getting a lesson on manning the grill and flipping burgers.
I hope it's a summer burger visit he too will always remember.
And if you haven't, check out my FoodieCrush interview with Lori.
White meat doesn't have to be dry. Use ground chicken thigh meat for juicy burgers every time topped with spicy chipotle ketchup.
- Melt butter and oil in a medium sauté pan mover medium heat. Sauté sliced onion and pasilla pepper and for 5 minutes, reduce to medium-low and simmer for 15-20 minutes until onion is soft and translucent and somewhat jammy.
- In a large bowl combine chicken, oregano, salt and pepper and mix gently, mixture will be sticky so be careful not to overwork. Divide into 8 patties and refrigerate for a half an hour. Prepare grill.
- Meanwhile blend one pepper and ketchup in a small food processor. Add another chile or more adobo sauce to taste for spiciness.
- Grill burgers for 15-20 minutes, flipping once, or until internal temperature is 160 degrees. Add cheese slices. Warm buns on grill. Serve with chipotle ketchup, onions and ketchup and arugula.

After a lot of research and testing on WD hard drives, SalvationDATA has upgraded successfully its HD Doctor for WD to version 7.0 with new support list and new features plus bug fix; please read below to find out more information about the latest program.
Update Date: 2012-07-18
Update Version: 7.0
Updated Feature
1. Add support for new ROYL series and supports up to 1T, 2T and 3T capacity. ROYL is the newest WD series, its special firmware architecture, once locked, firmware cannot be visited directly, which causes the hard disks unable to unlock by only usual operations. In WD 7.0, "common password clear" function was added to complete password clear solution.
2. Add the Firmware Cloud Storage, this feature is added into WD7.0 towards to provide a platform for users to share firmware based on our WD program, which allows users to upload or download firmware from server. Users can search firmware by model, firmware version, S/N and ATA to download.
3. Support ARCO Self-scan of WD ROYL Series, in old version WD 6.5 already can modify the procedure of ROYL series Self-scan but the modification method did not publicized and most users were unable to operate it freely. Therefore, WD 7.0 offers a rather user-friendly operation that users can simply click "ARCO Self-scan" to generate self-scan flow.
Bug Fixed
In previous versions, ROYL self-scan will fail because there is a bug that jumps directly to last stage of self-scan. This is caused by too short wait time of HDD, in 7.0, this bug was fixed.
Download the WD doctor upgrade program, please visit the forum: http://forum.salvationdata.com/viewforum.php?f=27 or you can email to [email protected] for more details.

Renewing a child's passport
Parental consent: renewal of a child's passport
Children cannot 'renew' a passport like an adult can using a PC7 form as parental consent must be confirmed for each application. An application for the renewal/replacement of a child's passport that was issued without full consent requires the same documentation and the same treatment as the initial application.
Lost/stolen child passports whilst overseas
If the child's previous travel document was either lost or stolen while overseas, and the applicant is seeking a replacement document, a completed application form must be lodged and the person lodging on behalf of the child must attend an interview at an Australian diplomatic mission or consulate overseas.
For all applications, the person lodging the application must be able to identify themselves, and the interviewer must be able to establish their relationship to the child, see ' Lodgement of child application '.
All persons with parental responsibilities must provide consent to the issue. Where these consents are not provided (but required) the application requires Approved Senior Officer (ASO) approval.

Breakfast Topic: Tank anxiety {WoW}
Aug 4th 2010 3:01PM I am at the same point that many of you describe. Wanting to quit, sickened by the profane tirades of basement dwelling lowlifes for whom WoW is the singular source of "accomplishment" in life, and getting kicked out of a raid because one member has a more desirable gearscore. If it weren't for these types, there would be no tank shortage. The tank that taught me the art and science of it quit due to the rising intensity of player obsession. They get so uptight with instant gratification that one near wipe in a heroic is all it takes for them to quit the group. That is, of course, after their brand of criticism airs.
They should make an addon called JerkScore. The higher the number, the bigger jerk you are. The rating would be up to people who have been sworn at like we've mentioned so many times, and proof wrought from an audit of past party/raid chat logs. A JerkScore of more than 10,000 gets you banned from the game. One vote automatically increases the jerk's score by 300googolplex (that's 300 followed by 10,100 zeroes). There will be a Redemption Program, where each vote down will decrease the JerkScore by a generous tenth of a point. Once you reach a total of 10,000 points, you will gain One Sorry Buck. Accrue 1000 Sorry Bucks and you will gain one Redemption point. At this juncture, the jerks will have likely given up and signed on with EverQuest again, the internment camp of MMO's.
Just a thought.
Anyway, back to tank anxiety. I don't get anxiety so much as anticipated anger. I don't worry about mistakes tanking, since it is something like riding a bike. I have been on the lookout for a raid guild who remembers that this is a game. And while I understand that raiding requires one to take the game a little more seriously and with more focus, and I even understand the reason for strict start times, there is positively no excuse for verbal abuse. Nor will there ever be. It has to stop, and people snapped back into reality again, remembering that everyone here isn't a soulless NPC.
Guest Post: Vetting puggers -- beyond GearScore and achievements {WoW}
Jul 19th 2010 7:23PM I say start a petition to get GearScore banned from WoW on grounds it is hindering progression for new raiders. Not against the creators of it, who had nothing but good intentions for it, but too many lazy players ruined it. May sound harsh, but it's wrecking every social aspect of the game.
Guest Post: Vetting puggers -- beyond GearScore and achievements {WoW}
Jul 18th 2010 11:34PM Wonderful article that should be posted on every WoW site out there. I've constantly struggled to get into raids ever since Gear Score came out. I have a great history with my guild, and used to experience a complete raid restructuring just so I could tank (not to sound arrogant, they had designated me main tank after a long period of proving myself). Now, however, people will rely only on gear to PUG a raid. My ability as a tank is no longer of any consequence, never mind that I've survived those seemingly impossible moments when it looks like a wipe, only to pull of a miracle save at the end. Doesn't anyone care about this anymore?

Why we should expect an expansion announcement at Blizzcon {WoW}
Apr 10th 2009 2:23PM This would be awesome. A new hero class would rock, and if we're getting a new race as Michael predicts above, then it's going to be two races as with the Draenei and Blood Elves in TBC (not sure a neutral race such as the goblins would go over well). Will they give us both for another expansion?
As for the 3.2 patch, will it be something similar to what they did with the Isle of Quel'Danas, or will Malykriss, the under-construction ziggurat near IC, be the new raid?

Scholarships Are Worth It | 03.24.08
Does money really make the world go around, because I was under the belief it circled on its rotational axis at a 23.5 degree angle from vertical at 1000 miles per hour with no monetary influence, but that's just me. Others have theorized that money actually makes the world go down like the Dow on black Tuesday. So which is it? Does it make the world go down or around? I guess it all depends on your vantage point and wallet size. The bigger your wallet, the greater your chance of motion sickness.
My goal is simple; find a way to beef up that wallet of yours devoid of any dizzy spells. The number one way to turn your paper thin wallet into a certified Jenny Craig candidate is to take someone else's money! Scholarships provide the perfect gateway to which I speak.
You would be astounded at the number of scholarships you actually qualify for, and you don't need to be Deans list to qualify either. I can not possibly stress enough that you need to take the time to look. I've even created a top 5 list to help streamline your search.
I get calls from desperate college graduates all the time who inform me they are in over their head with their student loan payments. And as sure as the sun rises in the east I'll be fielding calls once again this May from despairing students who just graduated looking for advice, but at that point the damage is already done. The point of this blog is to put you in front of the 8-ball instead of behind it
Being proactive about the cost of your college education opposed to reactive can save you thousands of dollars and a whole lot of stress in the long run. And I promise it won't be long before you're spinning around the sun with your Ray-Ban sunglasses and calling Jenny Craig to let her know that big is beautiful. Student loan debt is the only thing you need to lose.

"Nature? Fire? Bah! Both are chaotic and difficult to control. Ice is structured, latticed, light as a feather, massive as a glacier. In ice, there is power!"The power to control ice, and create cold and frost at will. May be used as a trinity with Fire and Electricity, hence Fire, Ice, Lightning. Likely to be used as a contrast to fire — if the hero prefers fire, his rival, Archenemy or Lancer will use ice. Sometimes the domain of evil or undead entities as Evil Is Deathly Cold. Goes hand in hand with Making a Splash, and may be involved with wind powers via cold air and snowstorms. In Elemental Rock-Paper-Scissors with fire, one will usually defeat the other, though which one varies. Ice is unlikely to be any stronger or weaker than other elements though for Competitive Balance, and thus Harmless Freezing will be invoked. If you want to resort to this to kill an otherwise invulnerable entity, you're planning to Kill It with Ice. May be used by Bigfoot, Sasquatch and Yeti, Snowlems, a Winter Royal Lady or even a Woman in White. People with these powers may also have An Ice Suit and a Freeze Ray, or be subject to Elemental Baggage. See also Human Popsicle. Also called "Cryokinesis." A common and unfortunate side effect of ice powers is an ice use of vocabulary.

We all know LED lights help us save energy, but did you know that they could also help us to fight colds? Researchers at Wageningen UR, in a partnership with Philips Lighting, have put LED modules to the test, blasting bursts of light on tomato plants. Amazingly, the tomatoes that received a boost of light from LEDs contained twice as much vitamin C, with only a quarter of the light intensity from a naturally sunny day.
For the study, the researchers were looking for natural ways to grow healthier fruit and vegetables indoors, rather than in the field. In collaboration with Health from the Greenhouse (Gezond uit de Kas) and the Dutch Ministry of Economic Affairs, researchers suspended LED modules in between growing tomatoes that would otherwise be in the shade and beneath the leaves of tomato plants.
The LED-blasted tomatoes were then tested for their nutritional value. The resulting data showed that the light-boosted fruit were packed with more vitamin C — in most cases about 50 percent more. The light from LED modules, rather than traditional greenhouse lighting, helped tomatoes foster and grow more nutrients while creating a more red and delicious tomato.
With the help of LED lights, tomato growers can also reduce costs. Not only will the presence of LEDs yield more desirable tomatoes by evening out fruit that would usually not fully develop because of shade, the tomatoes will achieve nutritional maturity faster and easier with the modules.

OK so this has nothing to do with LED lighting but that they got more light than what they normally would outdoors.
UncleRice May 9, 2013 at 6:22 pm
Ok, exactly what LEDs did they use, how many, and where can I buy them? Try being a little more informative.

Recently a Facebook user has received media attention for writing an "inspirational" piece about a fat runner he saw (but didn't know, or even speak to.)
It begins with truly condescending language, from the use of the term "footslogging" to pointing out that the runner is taking a water break every lap and guessing that they would "probably stop twice a lap if there were bleachers on both sides" and pointing out that the runners gaze drops to their feet "every time we pass."
These are familiar tropes to fathletes. It often doesn't even matter how we actually look, people are very comfortable to see what they expect and process our lives through the filter of their own stereotypes and prejudices. But the second paragraph is supposed to make up for all of that. You see, it's ok to trash a fatty if you bravely lift them up later:
"Every shallow step you take, you carry the weight of more than two of me, clinging to your bones, begging to be shaken off."
"Each lap you run, you're paying off the debt of another midnight snack, another dessert, another beer."
"You run without music, and I can only imagine the mantras running through your mind as you heave your ever-shrinking mass around the next lap. Let's go, feet. Shut up, legs. F**k off, fat."
"If you'd only look up from your feet the next time we pass, you'd see my gaze has no condescension in it."
"I have nothing but respect for you. You've got this."
I know from experience that when someone is "encouraging" in this manner, I am supposed to be grateful for their benevolence, and that anything else will inspire people to say that they "can't win" when trying to encourage fat people to exercise/be healthy/whatever. I would suggest that they first consider that fat people may not want encouragement and ask themselves if this is really even about the fat person, or if this is about their own ego and wanting a membership card to the "Save the Fatties" club. Then, I'd suggest they consider this:
The Facebook piece relies on tired stereotypes. He has no problem making guesses about this person's eating habits, exercise habits and psyche based on seeing her go past on a running track. Maybe she isn't a beginner at all — maybe this person is a marathoner who had the flu that day. This person may weigh twice what the author weighs, but maybe she has three times the muscle mass and feels just as easy moving her body. Maybe this person doesn't like dessert, or doesn't drink beer, or goes to bed at 8pm. Maybe this person doesn't feel that she needs to pay a debt for eating, maybe she is running for health, or because they like it. Maybe her eyes drop because the author is staring at her, silently composing the Facebook post he's going to write, instead of minding his own damn business. Maybe the runner loves her body exactly as it is, and her music free mantra is "I love my body and I love running and I wish that creeper would quit staring at me!" Maybe she isn't interested in a begrudging lack of condescension from someone who feels so free to make wild guesses about her.
It's not a compliment to suggest that a fat person's workout is any more inspirational than anyone else who dragged their tired ass to Zumba or the track. This reminds me of my friends with disabilities who are completely irritated at the idea that they are an "inspiration" for doing what other people do. These are obviously different issues, but I don't think doing either is cool and I think looking at both is important.
There are lots of fat people out there who just want to be able to get through our workouts without stereotyping, condescension, pity, guesses about our goals, or unrequited "encouragement." Most importantly, all fat people, whether we run or not, have the right to exist in the world without bullying, stereotyping or stigma. The rights to life, liberty, the pursuit of happiness and basic respect are not size- or habit- dependent. Fat people should not have to "earn" the right to live in the world without this person's condescension, we should not have to run to "earn" basic human respect.

Nude Photos of Cassie Hit the Net
The right side of her head isn't the only thing Cassie is exposing. Topless photos of the R&B singer leaked to the Internet on Wednesday night.
The "Me&U" hitmaker is pictured naked from the waist up, laying on a bed with nipple piercings. The amateur photos appear as though they were taken on a camera phone before she shaved her head last month. Rap-Up.com is not going to post the images here.
Cassie confirmed the authenticity of the leaked photos through her Twitter page. "IT SEEMS THAT SOMEONE HAS HACKED INTO MY COMPUTER…THAT'S REAL FOUL AND EVIL," she wrote in all caps. "NOW STOP ACTING LIKE YOU HAVEN'T SEEN A TITTY BEFORE."
Fabolous was among those who tweeted about the pics. "Ok my twiggas, ur dreams have been fulfilled," he said. "We hav[e] topless pics of Cassie."
The 22-year-old star is scheduled to shoot a video for "Must Be Love" with Diddy in Los Angeles this Friday.
UPDATE: Cassie has posted the following statement on her official website.
