Out of 26 million Texans, you may have an idea to change the world. You may have had several ideas to change the world. But only a tiny minority of you pushed through the U.S. Patent office from application to successful patent. We've seen Texans change the world many times over. Jack Kilby did it with Texas Instruments in 1958 with the integrated circuit, causing the start of the digital revolution, which, in part, is why you can read these words over your electronic device.
Over the last few years, Texas Business has brought its feature: Texas Business Patent of the Day. This list is of the ones that were either extremely clever, odd or strange. One thing becomes apparent from these patents and the patent that runs daily in Texas Business—Texans have a unique mind set.
Though the history of the Corn Dog is disputed, the State Fair of Texas claims to have introduced the Corny Dog sometime between 1938 and 1942. As a paean to that invention that now sits in the freezer section of every grocery store in the southwest, here are the fried foods the State Fair of Texas has introduced, or tried to introduce, in the last seven years.
Dead Texas musicians live on every time you hear their songs. Their songs play everywhere, so the dead Texas musicians appear to be immortal. Here's the short list.
Don't get caught up with John Wayne religion. For one thing, he's not Texan. He's in some fine movies involving Texas, most notably The Searchers, but none of his movies can make the best cut of Texas movies. Here's the short list.
Tourist Traps. Some are absurdly large. All are monuments to the bizarre notions of the human spirit.
The short simple list.
Nothing to agonize over. Simply the best.
Texas Business reports: COLLEGE STATION – According to National Weather Service records, large areas of the state have received 100 percent or more of normal rainfall since Jan. 1. Many other areas have gotten 50 to 75 percent of normal.
The precipitation statistics aside, much of Texas still suffered from drought conditions, according to Texas AgriLife Extension Service personnel. Of concern to many are low pond and stock-tank levels. Conditions often vary county to county within a region.
For example, though most of East Texas is officially out of the drought, there are still pockets of abnormally dry weather.
According to the service, Marion County has received about 75 percent of normal rainfall for the year, but you couldn't tell it by local conditions, said Brock Fry, AgriLife Extension agent for Marion County, northeast of Longview. Many ponds there are dry or down about 6 feet, creating issues for livestock producers, even though herd inventories are down by about 50 percent.
Rocky Vinson, AgriLife Extension agent for Shackelford County, north of Abilene, reported about 3 inches of rain fell there in the last week. Though the rain helped the soil moisture situation, stock tanks remained very low.
West of Fort Worth, Stephens County also received some much-needed rain this week, from 0.5 to 1 inch, but conditions are so dry, much more rain is needed to fill tanks, ponds and lakes to standard levels, according to Leslie Neve, AgriLife Extension agent for Stephens County.
From South Texas, George Gonzales, AgriLife Extension agent for Webb County, reported high temperatures there continued to run in the 100-degree-plus range last week, and evaporation rates were very high. Most ponds remained completely dry or were about to go completely dry. Webb County has had 50 to 75 percent of normal rainfall for the year, according to the weather service.
There's a simple reason ponds and reservoirs remain low in many areas despite considerable rainfall this year, said John Nielsen-Gammon, state climatologist and Regents professor at Texas A&M University.
Soils are so dry deep down and soak up any rain received before it can runoff to fill ponds and reservoirs, he said.
AgriLife Extension reporters compiled the following summaries for the 12 service districts:
Central: Native rangeland remained in poor condition from last year's drought. Some areas received significant rains, from 2 to 4 inches, but there was little runoff. Temperatures became more moderate. Harvesting of sunflowers, corn, milo and soybeans wound down, while the cotton harvest was just beginning. Corn yields averaged just over 100 bushels per acre, and grain sorghum yields were 3,900 to 4,500 pounds per acre. Sunflower yields were better than expected. Where rain was received, warm-season grasses responded. Producers expected to be able to take another cutting of coastal Bermuda grass before the year is out. Where they fertilized and controlled weeds, they may be able to take two more cuttings. Pecans were looking good.>/P>
Coastal Bend: During the last three weeks, no rain and temperatures in the upper 90s to above 100 degrees temperatures brought down soil-moisture levels. There were isolated showers in some counties, but not enough to make a difference in soil-moisture conditions. The corn and grain sorghum harvests were completed, and the cotton harvest was nearly finished. Early maturing pecan varieties such as Kanza and Pawnee were looking good prior to harvest. There were some reports of limb breakage from heavy nut loads.
East: Dry conditions were the general rule, with some counties reporting cooler-than-normal temperatures. Rainfall was sporadic, with only a few counties getting moisture. Burn bans were in place in several counties. Armyworms and grasshoppers continued to trouble hay producers. Most pasture growth slowed because of lack of moisture. Some producers were preparing fields for planting winter forages. Livestock remained in good condition, with calves being weaned and sold.
Far West: Highs were in the mid to upper 90s, and lows in the upper 60s and lower 70s. Soil moisture was far below average for this time of year due to the drought. Irrigated hay crops looked good with more moderate temperatures. Light rains and cooler temperatures in Martin County led to a slight increase in soil moisture, but row crops and rangeland remained in very poor condition. Culberson County received from a trace to more than 1 inch of rain. Andrews County reported small parts of their county showed green forage. Lehman lovegrass was tall and green in Crane County. Green pastures were very spotty with grasses headed out and curing. In El Paso County, pecan nuts were beginning to fill, alfalfa growers were taking a fifth cutting, and cotton neared the cut-off stage. In Presidio County, supplemental feeding of livestock and wildlife continued.
North: Rain rejuvenated pastures, and brought soil-moisture levels into the adequate range. Producers were preparing fields for fall plantings. Hay production on summer grasses was at an all-time high. The corn and grain sorghum harvests neared completion, with good to excellent yields. There were some reports of armyworms. Livestock were in good condition.
Panhandle: Scattered and spotty showers fell throughout the week, providing a little relief to drought conditions, but many of the storms were accompanied by hail and high winds. Irrigators were still watering in an effort to finish up the corn crop and prepare fields for early planted wheat. The silage harvest was in full swing in some areas and coming to an end in others. Corn-mite pressure continued to be high, and producers were spraying pesticides. Fall armyworms were feeding on corn ears in some areas. Irrigated sorghum was doing well, but dryland fields had not had enough moisture. Cotton was in mixed condition, from very good to very poor. Pastures have been overgrazed, leaving very little grass available.
Rolling Plains: The weather turned cooler and wetter. Some areas received from 0.5 inch to as much as 6 inches of rain. Although the rains were beginning to turn pastures green, they were too late in coming for producers who had already shipped cattle off. Although parts of the region received several inches of rain, the area remained in a drought. A large percentage of cotton either played out or was disastered-out by crop insurance adjusters early due to the drought. What was left didn't look very good. Some cotton began shedding bolls after the rain, and producers worried the boll loss would continue. The rains reduced the threat of wildfires, and wheat producers were considering planting. Peanut producers continued to expect average and above-average yields. Pecans also benefited greatly from the moisture. Weed pressure in rangeland and pastures was above normal.
South: Soil-moisture levels were mostly very short, except for Atascosa County, which reported 100-percent adequate levels. Hot temperatures, 90 to 100 degrees and above, continued to dry out rangeland, pastures and stock ponds. Some stock tanks were completely dry. Poor rangeland and pasture conditions forced livestock producers to continue to provide supplemental feed to their livestock. McMullen County producers were weaning calves early so as not to have to further reduce herds. In Atascosa County, the cotton harvest continued, peanuts were progressing well and late-planted corn looked good. In Frio County, the cotton harvest began, peanut crops continued to develop, and producers harvested some hay. In Jim Wells County, row-crop harvesting was nearly complete, with many producers plowing under acres of failed crops. In Maverick County, hay producers continued harvesting coastal Bermuda grass for hay. Also in that area, producers were preparing fields for fall planting. In Zavala County, the cotton harvest was very active after the crop responded well to defoliation. Cotton yields on irrigated fields in that area were good to excellent. In Cameron and Hidalgo counties, the cotton harvest was winding down, while it was ongoing in Starr County.
South Plains: Temperatures in the region were more moderate, with highs in the mid- to upper 90s and lows in the upper 60s to low 70s. Several counties got rain. All of Lubbock County received rain, with amounts varying from 0.5 inch to about 1.6 inches, which brought above-average total rain for August. Several other counties reported scattered light rains, with Cochran County getting some hail damage. Cotton, peanuts and milo continued to mature. Dryland was opening bolls and moisture-stressed in some areas. Some severely stressed fields will not be harvested; insurance adjusters were scheduled to evaluate fields in mid-September. Some forage sorghum producers were cutting and baling. Rangeland and pastures were in poor to good condition and still needed rain. Livestock were in mostly fair to good condition.
Southwest: Some areas received from 0.5 inch to 2 inches of rain, but overall, hot, dry conditions prevailed. The rains were not enough to improve pastures very much. Water-use restrictions and burn bans were in effect in some counties. Livestock conditions remained steady or were declining, depending upon the county. The corn and grain sorghum harvests neared completion with producers reporting modest yields. Cotton growers began defoliating and harvesting. Some producers were preparing fields for planting wheat and oats.
West Central: The weather was cloudy and windy, with temperatures below 100 degrees all week. Many counties reported scattered showers, which will help cotton mature, but soil-moisture levels remained poor in most areas. Most cotton continued to be irrigated. The hay harvest was complete for the most part, though more rain could mean another cutting for some. Farmers were preparing fields for fall planting. Rangeland and pastures continued to decline and show moisture stress. Stock tanks remained very low. Pecans were in good condition.

In /etc/Bastille you should have or can create a directory named firewall.d. In that directory, you can add a file that is run on server reboot, thus restoring your "special" rules such as blocking a Nigerian ISP that has some nasty fellows who are constantly probing your server....
cd /etc/Bastille
mkdir firewall.d
vi post-rule-setup.sh
INSERT the iptables COMMANDS you need, for example
iptables -I INPUT -m iprange --src-range 184.108.40.206-22.214.171.124 -j DROP
iptables -I OUTPUT -m iprange --dst-range 22.214.171.124-22.214.171.124 -j DROP
Save the file, then when iptables starts at boot it loads these rules.
I have found this to be an effective way to permanently deal with a lot of the server brute-force-attacks originating again and again in some countries, and to forever block someone who used cracked SMTP logins to spam.
Any iptables rules in the file are run, but be sure that the rules are valid and tested from the command line so that you don't break iptables on boot.

Hip replacement surgery is a procedure done to remove a painful, broken, or diseased hip joint and replace it with an artificial hip joint.
Hip joint replacement is done mainly in people age 60 and older. Possible reasons for replacing the hip joint include:
This surgery is usually not recommended if:
Alternatives to this procedure include:
Ask your healthcare provider about these choices.
Talk to your hip surgeon about what he or she expects before and after surgery. Read the general information given to you by the surgeon's office. Ask your surgeon for more precise information when you are unsure of what might be happening. Also talk to several people someone who have had a hip replacement to get an idea of what the procedure and recovery period are like.
Because you may need blood transfusions during the operation or during recovery, you may want to donate some of your own blood before the procedure. You should donate blood no more than 4 weeks before the procedure.
Get equipment that will help you while you recover at home, such as an elevated toilet seat, a shower seat, and grab bars or handrails. Remove rugs and cords that might cause a fall.
Plan for your care and recovery after the operation, especially if you are going to have general anesthesia. Allow for time to rest after the operation. Find people to help you with your day-to-day duties and care for at least the first week at home.
You may meet with a physical therapist before surgery to learn exercises that will help you after surgery. If you can, increase your leg motions and general exercise before surgery. The fitter you are, the easier time you will have recovering from the surgery. Everyone can improve a little bit. Getting yourself into an exercise habit helps you continue good exercise habits after surgery.
Follow your provider's instructions about not smoking before and after the procedure. Smokers heal more slowly after surgery. They are also more likely to have breathing problems during surgery. For these reasons, if you are a smoker, you should quit at least 2 weeks before the procedure. It is best to quit 6 to 8 weeks before surgery. Plan to stay smoke free for several months after surgery. Quitting forever would be good to do if you can.
If you need a minor pain reliever in the week before surgery, choose acetaminophen rather than aspirin, ibuprofen, or naproxen. This helps avoid extra bleeding during surgery. If you are taking daily aspirin for a medical condition, ask your provider if you need to stop taking it before your surgery.
Follow any instructions your healthcare provider may give you. Eat a light meal, such as soup or salad, the night before the procedure. Do not eat or drink anything after midnight on the day of the procedure. Do not even drink coffee, tea, or water.
You will be given a regional or general anesthetic. A regional anesthetic numbs the lower part of your body while you stay awake. A general anesthetic relaxes your muscles and puts you to sleep. Both types of anesthesia keep you from feeling pain during the operation.
The surgeon makes a cut along the side of your hip, moves the muscles connected to the top of the femur (thighbone), and exposes the hip joint. The surgeon pulls the ball portion of the joint (the end of the femur) away from the socket part of the joint (the hipbone). The ball of the femur is cut with a saw and an artificial replacement part is attached to the femur.
The surgeon prepares the surface of the hipbone and, if it is worn, attaches a metal or plastic socket part to the hipbone. The surgeon inserts the new ball part of the femur into the socket part of the hip. Two drains may be inserted to help drain any fluid or blood from the new joint. The surgeon then reattaches the muscles to the top of the femur and closes the cut in the side of your hip with stitches or staples.
You may need a blood transfusion. The hospital will use either your donated blood or blood from a donor that matches your blood.
After surgery, your hip will be covered with a padded dressing. Special boots or stockings will be put on your feet or legs to help prevent blood clots. A triangular shaped cushion may be positioned between your legs to keep your legs from crossing or rolling in. A tube (catheter) may be placed in your bladder if you have trouble urinating.
You will be given a regular program of exercises to do each day as long as you are in the hospital. Your physical therapist will start by helping you move from your bed to a chair. By the second day, you'll begin walking longer distances using your crutches or walker. Your therapist will teach you exercises to begin strengthening the thigh and hip muscles.
You may stay in the hospital about 4 to 6 days, depending on how fast your hip heals. You can leave the hospital and go to a short-term rehab facility or go home when:
After you go home from the hospital, your physical therapist may visit you for in-home treatments. Your therapist will review your exercise program and continue working with you on your hip precautions. Your therapist will suggest safety tips such as using elevated toilet seats and bathtub benches and raising the surfaces of couches and chairs. Raised sitting surfaces keep your hip from bending too much when you sit down. The visiting nurse or therapist will also suggest ways to make your home environment safe.
Constipation is common after joint replacement surgery. It is caused by narcotic pain killers as well as inactivity. You may be given a stool softener and a laxative after surgery to avoid this. When you are home again, be sure to eat a high-fiber diet and plenty of liquids according to your provider's recommendations.
If medicine to help prevent clots has been prescribed for you, be sure to follow your healthcare provider's instructions for taking this medicine.
Your staples will be removed 2 weeks after surgery. You will probably start using a cane instead of crutches 3 to 4 weeks after the surgery. You will probably be able to drive within 3 weeks and walk without a cane or walker by 6 weeks. With your healthcare provider's approval, you will be able to resume sexual activity 1 to 2 months after surgery.
Use a calendar or journal to keep track of what you think is happening each day from just before your surgery to several months after the surgery.
Let your dentist and healthcare providers know that you have an artificial joint. If you have a dental infection or skin infection, you may need to start antibiotics right away. If you have a condition such as diabetes that puts you at higher risk for infection, you may need to take antibiotics before dental procedures or some kinds of surgery. For simple dental and surgical procedures, most people with replacement joints do not need to take antibiotics in advance, but you should check with your provider about this.
Ask your provider what other steps you should take and when you should come back for a checkup. When you have hip surgery, a few regular follow-up visits are part of the service of having the surgery. These are for wound checks and to give you recovery advice close to the time you need it. Be sure to keep these appointments.
Some healthcare providers may recommend taking an antibiotic before and right after you have a dental or medical procedure or surgery. This may be done to help prevent an infection around the hip replacement. However, such infections are rare, and it's not clear from studies that taking antibiotics before a procedure helps prevent an infection.
If you do get some other infection (such as a bad gum infection or sinus, bladder, or skin infection), the infection should be treated right away. Let all of your healthcare providers, including your dentist, know that you have an artificial joint. If you are having infections treated with a procedure (like deep cleaning of bad tooth and gum problems, or sinus surgery for infections), talk to your provider about having preventive antibiotics to protect your hip.
The hip replacement should relieve the problems of a painful hip. You will be able to move your hip more easily and fully and less painfully. It will be easier for you to walk and do other activities that use your hip. Most people get back to a more normal life.
Ask your healthcare provider how these risks apply to you.
Call your provider right away if:

This is my second Mirror. I would not have a bathroom without it. IT IS A MUST HAVE!! I would definately reccomend the largest size. I had the 12 by 12 in my last bath and now have the 18 by 18. It is awesome. I had my electrician put it on a timer so I don't forget to turn it off. Turn on the timer, hop in shower, shave and no razor burn and it just turns itself off. The simple things........

Best way to shave
Over the years I have had all kinds of shower mirrors, but when I was building my new shower I bought this one in the 12x 12 size. I love it ! I it have hooked up to the shower light. It never fogs up even with 3 shower heads going.

Great product!
My husband uses the mirror in the shower every day and loves it.

shaving mirror
Received my shaving mirror as promised, Everything was intact. I gave the mirror to my contractor who installed it and he said that the installation would cost me extra due to it being a little more complicated to install. We chose a spot in our new shower and that is where he installed it. He had to run a new outlet to a closet where he put the new outlet which took longer than expected so this is where the extra cost came in. having to put in a new electrical outlet and running the wires. I am totally satisfied with the mirror and the way it works. Its great to have a mirror that doesn't fall off the wall and onto my feet any longer. Its also nice to have a mirror that doesn't fog up while shaving.

Good product
Meets my needs... wish it heated up more quickly though. Not a big deal.
October 21, 2009
Since this shower mirror is actually wired it uses heat to stay fog-free. Best shower mirror I have purchased for my husband. I also bought one for my daughter who loves hers as well.

I Like Shaving in the Shower
I have used various shaving mirrors in the shower for years, but this is the first one that is a permanent installation (I had my shower re-tiled recently). Installation was a bit tricky because I didn't have an electrical outlet in the shower. I had to cut a hole in the drywall in the room next to the shower, fish electrical wiring to that point and back to a switch, install a receptacle in the wall, and add an access plate to cover the hole. This would be a much easier installation during new construction. Setting the mirror into the tiled wall was no harder than setting the tile itself, and Clear Mirror provided a template for the tile installer. The mirror works well once it warms up, which takes about 10 minutes. I have learned to turn on power to the mirror several minutes before I turn on the water in the shower, otherwise the mirror fogs up and takes awhile to clear. (I have no idea what the life of the mirror would be if power were just left on.) If I build/re-model another bathroom, I would definitely consider installing a shower mirror again, taking into consideration the cost. The $200 price seems high for what it is (a 12-inch mirror with heat tape on the back), and if I had to have an electrician wire it the installed costs would have been very steep.

my husband loves this shower mirror
This mirror was recommended by my brother-in-law who said it was a "must-have" for any bathroom renovation. My husband loves it too...says it's so much easier to shave in the shower now. We didn't do the installation ourselves since we already had a contractor on the job...so I'm not sure how difficult that part was.

Category: 4 Wheel Rollators With Seat
We bought an expensive walker which ended up being too big and too heavy to use anywhere.
Pros:This walker is narrow and light - perfect for my mom to use around the house and easy to take in the car.
Cons:Like everything about it and my mom loves using it.
Overall: Yes, I would recommend this product.
My mother is quite small and this Rollator is just the right size. She is learning to manage it and is very happy with its maneuverability and style--she loves the red color
Pros:size for a small person
Cons:the user is having some difficulty learning to use the brakes--don't know if this is the user or the product
Overall: Yes, I would recommend this product.
very, very nice. light weight and easy to manuver. I wish the brake stayed on constantly while sitting. other than that feature, my mother really enjoys it. thank you

First of all, let me just say, if you are not watching Gossip Girl you should be ashamed of yourself. It's fabulous -- and if you've ever loved 90210, Melrose Place, The O.C., One Tree Hill, Dawson's Creek, or anything of the like, you will love it. Trust.
So, I'm positively giddy to report that sources are saying that GG's stars -- and on-screen love interests -- Blake Lively and Penn Badgely may just have a little something for us to talk about going on off-screen. According to the NY Daily News' Gatecrasher, they pair have started "quietly dating." "No one is really supposed to know that," laughs an insider. "I was told by a friend of the family." The co-stars were spotted shopping together last week in NYC, looking quite cozy.
Yeah! It just makes me love them as a GG couple even more and, because I have a hard enough time separating real life from television anyway, this just makes my life that much easier.

Welcome to the Shure Songwriting Award
Judged by Get Cape Wear Cape Fly
Are you a singer songwriter looking for an opportunity to develop a career in the music industry?
This is the opportunity you've been looking for!
Last Year's Winner Uri Sade
"It was a big honour for me to win the Shure Songwriting award. The fact I was chosen out of so many other songwriters gave me a lot of motivation to keep doing what I like to do the most - writing songs. The Institute is such a great environment to develop as a songwriter. Since I've started the course I've written dozen of songs, collaborated with different kinds of writers and gained a lot of experience."

The Navy SEAL Workout is described as a bodyweight workout performed on a concrete "grinder" (parking lot). The grinder is surrounded by pull up bars and nearby are dip bars. After the workout the SEALs go for a long run on the beach or swim in the ocean. This type of training has created one of the most elite fighting forces in the world.
Typical workouts are bodyweight workouts with calisthenics, stretching and yoga poses and last at least an hour. Then the frogmen walk over to do pull ups and a few sets of dips. Then they jog to the beach (up and over the dunes) and then a 30 minute to one hour run or swim. SEALs train for long endurance but still must be able to remain strong and move their equipment and bodies long distance for speed.
BUD/S is 80% Mental 20% Physical – Get Your Mental Edge Here
Check out part of the text from a recent interview with Brad McLeod, Navy SEAL
"How a Real Navy S.E.A.L works out Daily"
Brad: We did a ton of bodyweight exercises but supplemented with weights when possible. During a typical week on base I would ride my bike to the ST-4 compound. We would have a SEALgrinderPT bodyweight workout for 45 minutes and then go for a 3 mile run. At lunch I would lift weights or we had a tall rope that I would climb.
I would ride my bike home in the afternoon and add extra miles. Other mornings in the week had more grinder PT, an ocean swim, obstacle course and longer run (10 miles) on Friday. We realy mixed it up with variety and worked hard on being able to move our bodies quickly over short and long distances.
When out to sea, I did grinder PT bodyweight workouts on the back fan tail of the ship and ran stairs and around the helicopter launch pad. The pullup bar was the ships railing on the deck above. I made do with what I had in tight spaces. We had a bench press but it was tough to lift heavy weights with a moving ship rolling and rocking in the ocean. I would still give it a go and got in some killer workouts.
We have daily bodyweight workouts posted up daily on our website www.sealgrinderpt.com. These are workouts like I did on the ship so you can do them anywhere. So if you want to train like a Team Guy this will give you something to try out and help your Special Forces Workouts.
Sign Up for the GoRuck Challenge and Get 8% Off all GoRuck gear
The biggest key to the workouts is to have endurance and durability. There are a lot of athletes out there that are strong – or can do a 10 minute CrossFit wodt. But imagine carrying a rucksack and gear for miles, rappelling down a cliff, swimming 3 miles and then assaulting the enemy during a rainstorm? You have to be built for the long haul. So typical, SEALs workouts are longer and loaded to the gills with endurance.
Work on building your legs and hip flexors. Biking, running and swimming long distance are great activities. Doing box jumps and plyometric work are also great exercises. Stay away from any machine or heavy weights as this is not good at all.
When you go to BUD/S (or any Special Forces) training – you will never touch a barbell. If you need a weight use a sand bag or ruck (military backpack) loaded with sand or gear. Flip tires, pull a sled, push a prowler if you must – but go easy on the barbell. Again – don't touch a machine (Nautilus, etc.) as you are wasting your time. That all comes from a guy who spent 11 months in BUD/S. Machines are a waste of your time.
Exercise Workouts List – Try these
1 mile run
100 pull ups
200 push ups
300 air squats
1 mile run
wear 20 lb vest if you have it.

Equipment List – Gear that you may need by Brad McLeod
We get asked all the time about what gear is needed to begin training. To tell you the truth – you don't need much gear as SEALs make do with what they have. Imagine training on a ship in the middle of the Pacific Ocean. YOu will not have access to great gear so sometimes you have to make your own and improvise. I like to use an exercise mat for doing ab and core workouts. Even if your on a ship – you can find a place to run – so a good pair of CrossFit style workout/running shoes is nice to have.
If your training for BUD/S or Special Forces then we highly recommend you get a good pair of boots like the Bates 922 boot (these boots are worn at BUD/S). Slowly break in your boots and use them for ruck marches and flutter kicks. If your going to try the workout "Murph" you should work your way up to a weight vest. Go ahead and get a good weight vest. You may spend a few extra dollars but cheap weight vest tear apart easily under a load – so you get what you pay for.
If I had BUD/S training to do all over again I would invest in a pair of wood gym rings. The gym rings are versatile and you can do pull ups, ring dips and ring pushups with them. They are portable and you can take them with you in your ruck to the playground or beach for a workout. Another piece of gear I like are using kettlebell as they are portable and really help you build up your core. Any good garage gym should have a set of pull up bars and you can also do toe to bars, and set up your gym rings to hang from them. A note – The BUD/S Pull up bars are 2 inch thick — You need to see Grip4orce

Navy SEAL Tips – Races to Prepare you for Navy SEAL Workouts
Spartan Race
Workout #4
Navy SEAL Pull up pyramid
5 minute shoulder mobility wod then…
pull ups 1-2-3-4-5-6-7-8-9-8-7-6-5-4-3-2-1
then run 3 miles in sand or waters edge along a creek.
Those athletes that continue to work long endurance and get away from muscle building workouts will do the best in the long run at BUD/S training.
We just had an athlete ask us the question: "What is a good pyramid pull up workout that you guys did stationed overseas? Here is a cool workout…
5 minute shoulder mobility then..
20 walking lunges
pull up pyramid 1-2-3-4-3-2-1
25 walking lunges
pull up pyramid 1-2-3-4-3-2-1
each round add 5 lunges.
it is a full body workout and you can count rounds till failure
Question: What is a book that tells the real deal about BUDS and how to make it through?
Check out the book Breaking BUD/S: How Regular Guys Can Become Navy SEALs.
It gives a good look at what happens in BUDS and how you can train to make it through and succeed.
Question: "What happens if you get kicked out of Navy SEAL training?". You will be sent to the fleet (Navy ship) and serve out the rest of your tour chipping paint and washing dishes and maybe using some skills you learned along the way.
Question: Do SEAL workouts build muscle? You will build some muscle but more than likely you will lean out and get more cut or ripped. If you want to build more muscle you will be better off doing a bodybuilding type workout. Most SEALs are not overly muscled up as this gets in the way when you are swimming and carrying a ruck sack on a mission. The ideal SEAL is 5 ft 9 inches and 165 lbs and lean. They can easily touch their hand far behind their neck and shoulder blade (not excess muscle).
Question: What does it mean when you hear the term "Navy SEAL PT Workout"? PT means physical training.
Question: What is a Navy SEALs favorite workout? That is a no brainer. Either a grinder PT and run or doing the Murph wod. That is how we roll.
Question: What are BUDS training exercises that I can do on a ship? Check out the workouts above.
Question: Is it good to run with weighted vest to prepare for Buds? I would suggest hiking with the vest and ruck at least once a week. I would only run with a vest while doing the Murph wod.
Question: What is a good navy seal workout plan? Check out the routines here
Question: What are some good bodyweight workouts that you did in the Teams? Check out the daily workout that we post as it has our grinder PT workouts we did on the Teams.
Question: what kind of ab workouts do you do in BUDS training? We did a lot of sit-ups, flutter kicks, good mornings, cobra stretch. Tons of core work.
Question: Where can I find the US Naval Special Warfare SEALs training & fitness manual pdf? Check here at http://www.military.com/military-fitness/navy-special-operations/navy-seal-fitness:
Question: Where do the SEALs go through initial training? BUDS is located in Coronado, CA.
Question: Do navy seals only do bodyweight exercises? Most of the time they do.

jknigh8:So far my favorite part of being pregnant is how much closer my husband and I have gotten. We were really close before, but daydreaming about our baby and experiencing all the little steps along the way together has brought us closer than I could have imagined and I am so incredibly happy with my life.
I must be really hormonal right now, your post just made me tear up! lol, it's so sweet though
Hey Mommas! Hope everyone has a wonderful Wednesday!
We have our BIG U/S today! We're keeping our fingers crossed that the baby shows the goods! We are so excited! We're going to have to try to keep it a secret from our family and friends and tell them all on Christmas... Lets hope we can do it!
nicole4312:QOTD: What?s been your favorite thing about being pregnant so far?
So far, my favorite things is being able to feel my child and talk to him or her and know that (s)he hears me!
Once I discover a favorite thing, I'll tell you. I don't want to be emo, but it's been kinda difficult so far - but totally worth it since my kid's healthy, so can that be my favorite thing so far? Having a healthy baby?
Oh, and I'm officially on Team Blue, despite the rest of the world's predictions.
LovedWifey:EllePost:My DHs face when he felt baby kick!
You're only 17 weeks and he felt the baby kick?!?
yeah, i know its nuts. I was a pretty little gal pre preg though, and my doc thinks thats why (im 5'7'' and was 125 and have like no torso)
You can actually see my belly move when the baby kicks, its NUTS. I can also hear the hb with a stethoscope (i have a doppler too but tried the stethoscope last night just for kicks and could actually hear it)- I think LO is just getting big fast, my uterus is already to my belly button
Once I discover a favorite thing, I'll tell you. I don't want to be emo, but it's been kinda difficult so far - but totally worth it since my kid's healthy, so can that be my favorite thing so far? Having a healthy baby?
This for me too. I haven't felt my baby move yet, so that can't be it. People are shoving me food, but my doctor is keeping a VERY close eye on my weight. I'm still getting sick. I have acne like you wouldn't believe! Honestly, i've told DH many times this may be our 1 and only because i do not like being pregnant thus far.
But I would say watching my LO on the ultrasound has been my favorite. I've had 5 u/s so far, and will get another one next month. I love watching the changes!
Could you please add me to the list?
May 23, 2010
QOTD: I have loved thinking and dreaming about this baby. My husband and I have had a lot of fun thinking of names, looking at baby clothes, etc. We cannot wait till next Tuesday to find out the gender!

Fields and Hunter Tabbed Lombardi Award Candidates
July 15, 2013
HOUSTON -- TCU defensive linemen Devonte Fields and Chucky Hunter appear on the watch list for the 2013 Rotary Lombardi Award.
The Rotary Lombardi Award is presented to college football's top lineman or linebacker. Horned Frog All-Americans Jerry Hughes and Jake Kirkpatrick were Rotary Lombardi Award finalists in the 2009 and 2010 seasons, respectively.
Fields also appears on watch lists for the Chuck Bednarik Award and Bronko Nagurski Trophy, both representing the nation's best defensive player. Hunter is on the watch list for the Outland Trophy, presented to the nation's top interior lineman.
Fields and Hunter are two of nine returning starters on a TCU defense that topped the Big 12 in six categories and ranked 16th nationally, despite having faced five of the nation's top-13 offenses.
As a true freshman in 2012, Fields was named the Associated Press Big 12 Defensive Player of the Year. He was also a unanimous selection by the conference coaches as the Defensive Freshman of the Year. Additionally, Fields was a consensus Freshman All-American and the National Defensive Freshman of the Year.
A native of Arlington, Texas, Fields led the Big 12 with 18 1/2 tackles for loss while placing third with 10 sacks.
Fields' 10 sacks, which tied for fourth in a season by a Horned Frog, broke the TCU freshman record of seven set by eventual NFL All-Pro Aaron Schobel in 1997. Fields took part in a sack in nine of 13 games. His 53 tackles topped the defensive front. He added two forced fumbles, a fumble recovery, interception and four pass breakups.
Hunter was an All-Big 12 selection last season. He totaled 36 tackles, including six for loss with 3 1/2 sacks. The junior from West Monroe, La., equaled a career-high with five stops, including two for loss, in the regular-season finale with Oklahoma.
In 2011, Hunter became the first TCU true freshman to start a game since Kelly Griffin in 2007.

Easily the best non-offensive romantic comedy of 1998, "You've Got Mail" treats the young and old to yet another delightful blend of subtle wit and humor with the lovable Tom Hanks and Meg Ryan, two business nemesis who unknowingly share their deepest thoughts and feelings via the Internet. While some have dubbed this film as "Sleepless in Seattle" part II, I would venture to say that "You've Got Mail" stands easily on its own merits and, in many ways, surpasses those of "Sleepless…".
Joe Fox (Tom Hanks) is the owner of New York City's new Fox Bookstore, a self-proclaimed book superstore where visitors can browse through hundreds of thousands of titles while sipping on Mochas or Cappuccinos in a modern, yet friendly environment. With all books on discount and aggressive sales tactics, his new business is sure to put the family-run "Shop Around the Corner," in business for 40+ years and maker of memories for generations of New Yorkers, out of business for good. Kathleen Kelly (Meg Ryan), the owner of "The Shop Around the Corner," does nearly every ethical thing in her power to keep her quaint book shop in business.
In an age when romance often blooms via the Internet, "You've Got Mail" raises an interesting look into the lives of millions of Americans who meet and correspond via email or Instant Message, without ever having personally met each other face-to-face. After sharing deep thoughts and emotions for many months, Fox and Kelly decide to meet in a cute café close to home. This is a big decision and can often be a "make it or break it" opportunity. what will their anonymous confidant really be like in person? What will he or she look like? Expectations run high, almost impossibly so.
Of course, we know who is who and the ironic relationship that has been blooming for many months leaves the viewer longing for everything to work out in the end. "You've Got Mail" is surely a winner and a great date-movie. Things to take caution for: about 3 instances of profanity and 2 instances of foul language. Both Fox and Kelly have live-in romantic partners. It is obvious they do not love their partners, nor do their partners love them, and both Kelly and Fox make things right and choose to not live any longer with an unmarried partner. Furthermore, Fox's new step-mom (more his age than his father's) makes a pass or two at him, quickly deflected and turned down by Fox. Later, we learn that her romantic interests lead her away from her marriage, though this is certainly not praised.
"You've Got Mail," rated PG for mild language, delivers a timely and much-needed non-offensive romantic comedy for all to enjoy. Even the male genre, often dragged "kicking and screaming" to such films, will find this enjoyable and well worth one's time.
Year of Release—1998
Well, I've read all the other comments and thought I would add mine to the bunch. I enjoyed "You've Got Mail" and was not disappointed at Tom Hank's and Meg Ryan's performances. One thing I would like to add is that Mail didn't have the "destiny" references that I saw in "Sleepless in Seattle" and I was glad to see it. I believe this is one thing that leads to so many divorces. "Well, I met the wrong man so there is nothing wrong with divorcing him if I find the right one." Bull! Marriage is about commitment, not just emotions. In this movie they got to know each other. They didn't decide they were "destined" to be together so therefore it must be right. Prayer is a much better "indicator" if he/she is the right one for you than "destiny" ever thought about being.
—Tanna, age 35
While there were many enjoyable aspects to this movie, I must warn any parent planning to take a youngster to this movie that the profanity is totally unnecessary to the plot. From the co-habitation and their "sneaking around" on their live-in unmarried "partners", this movie wants us to accept as normal this type of behavior. Is it honoring to God to hear his holy name taken in vain and to see fornicators who cheat on their live-ins? I don't think so. Go rent an old classic movie instead.
—Robert, age 44
Were it not for Tom Hanks and Meg Ryan I think this would have been a dismal failure. I thought the script was dull and the story dragged. Because the entire cast (which is excellent) carry so much personality to the screen, it works, but just barely. It's ironic that though I was cringing that the couples were living together I was somewhat relieved that at least they weren't MARRIED! I hope this unrealistic portrayal of two people meeting On Line doesn't encourage the desperate. All that said, compared to what's out there this is a rather harmless movie but it seems as though it could have been so much better with a punched up script and better editing. I would not spend the money to see this at the theatre, but it's not too bad of a rental with a few disclaimers.
—Carole Lisson, age 46
A Cute Movie…
The only word that comes to mind about this movie is "cute". Meg is cute, Tom is cute, her bookstore is cute, his dog is cute… you get the picture. It's not as funny as I thought it might be and I constantly had to fight the urge to push Meg's hair out of her eyes, but other than that it was an OK movie. Nothing obviously offensive, but I do find it interseting how blase even we Christians have become about unmarried people living together. Nothing wild and steamy is shown, but the message that it's ok to live together is there just the same. But somehow in this movie it just seems "cute".
—Bets, age 41
Cannot recommend…
While this movie was fun and interesting, as christians we feel we could not recommend it due to the many times God's name is taken in vain; crude sexual comments; obvious promiscuity; the casual, joking way regarding someone's many failed marriages and reference in a laughing way to a lesbian relationship. As children of a pure and holy God, how much is too much?
—David Haskell, age 36
Cavalier attitude toward unmarried live-in partners…
Having heard that this movie was cute and very clean I loaded up my car with five young people age 10-14 and went to the movies! From the very beginning I felt very uncomfortablel with the cavalier way the live-in relationships were portrayed. There was nothing to indicate shame or a sense of wrong with the Tom Hank's character or the Meg Ryan character living in sin. And when the relationships ended it seemed almost painless in both situations and a relief. Another demonstration of throw away relationships, sex without consequences. After the movie, I discussed this with my children and they felt I was making too big of a deal about it and it was "just a movie." Then I realized Hollywood won again with this movie. We and our children will tolerate wrong for the sake of being entertained. Yes, the movie was cute, the characters charming, but would it have not been better had they just been two lonely souls (without the liveins), without the step mom situations, without the perverted father and grandfather element??…
—Cindy Cutler, age 45
Great idea, but don't ignore the unacceptable behavior…
Typical Hollywood Story Line: The norm for all single people is to live with someone (or lots of someones) until you finally meet that great someone who has also been livng with lots of losers until you come together as the perfect match. And the losers that get left never get hurt. We were enticed by the prospect of a "clean" romantic comedy… and who wouldn't be thrilled to see Meg Ryan and Tom Hanks get together again on screen. They are so cute together! Unfortunately, we couldn't ignore parts of the movie that gloss over things we believe are unacceptable behavior. Ryan's character asks the question early on "Is it cheating if you are just talking with someone on the net?" The question is never answered, but it is pretty obvious by the way they have to sneak around. By the time they got together at the end, we didn't care about them at all, and respected them even less. It's really too bad, because it was a great idea for a romantic comedy.
—SM, age 34
Meg Ryan and Tom Hanks are great, in fact I think this movie would have been horribly boring if they had not been in it. They are both so cute and magical when they get together in any movie. The only thing I didn't like was the unnecessary language, especially when he takes God's name in vain, I cannot stand that.
—K.D., age 24
This movie was one of the best I've seen in a long time. Hardly any profanity or bad language. I have to admit that the movie dragged on, and I caught myself looking at my watch a few times. But, the plot was great, and it had my full attention. I recommend this movie if you're looking for one with a good story line, low on bad language and profanity, and a good laugh. This movie has it all.
—Sarah Gonzales, age 15
"Sleepless…" was better…
Though enjoyable, my wife and I didn't find it as good as "Sleepless". We thought it to be a cute yet forgettable movie.
—Michael Glatz, age 41
Very much enjoyed it. Good to know that Hollywood still has talent to produce a fine film without filth. Great movie even for us guys…
—Jay, age 34
I enjoyed this movie. I was so thankful to finally be able to say "yes" to a movie my daughter wanted to see. It has been a difficult Fall to say "yes" to anything PG-13. I screen all of them before making a decision. I knew about the characters living with someone and my daughter knows that it is wrong. I was grateful that the down side of living together was shown and that both the characters broke-up. I appreciated Tom Hanks character responding negatively to his step-mom's advances. Dabney's Coleman's character was a very good example of the type of guy to avoid. I was glad we could just enjoy a movie together that fit a 12 yr. old. It sparked a discussion of the importance of communication, commitment, character of guys, and dating that was very good. The main reason I take her and her friends to movies is to talk about these things and Hollywood sure does give us a lot to talk about.
—Janet, age 39
This is a great movie. I really enjoyed seeing Tom Hanks and Meg Ryan in the same movie again. If you liked "Sleepless in Seattle," you'll like You've got mail. Only "You've Got Mail" is better because Tom Hanks and Meg Ryan interact throughout the movie instead of just meet in person at the end.
—Susan, age 15
A cute movie. A good date movie too! heh heh. It is fun seeing Tom Hanks return to the type of roles that we were used to seeing him in before he became the HUGE Oscar winning superstar. both Tom and Meg Ryan have the same chemistry that propelled them in Sleepless in Seattle. Personally I liked this film better than Sleepless. Couldn't help to notice that this film was a billboard for both AOL and even Starbucks. but that's okay I guess. now if only we could get AOL to work as fast as it did on the big screen!!
—Don Lambirth, age 30
Some objectionable content…
While the movie is far-and-away one of the nicest movies of its kind, there are still several objectionable themes. The most prevelant is the total acceptance of co-habitation of unmarried adults. We see clearly that the two leading characters have no committment to those with whom they are living. Fidelity certainly isn't an issue with these people. On the male side, we see it is a generational norm as Tom Hanks' character is the third generation to take such matters lightly. While Meg Ryan's character speaks in glowing terms of her deceased mother, her father is never mentioned. So you've got mail, but no permanent address…
—MLF, age 40
Use of profanity…
While I must admit that this movie is stylish and sure to be a classic, I think it robs itself greatly with its use of profanity. My family and I watch movies frequently and try to be open-minded (?) but this movie really wasted itself to some degree by inserting this stuff. This is suppose to encourage a romantic feeling? As good as it is, I would not go out of my way to mention it to anyone else and will not being seeing it myself ever again.
—Gene Fend, age 38
I saw this movie last night with my husband. It was sweet, enjoyable, and left me feeling that I would marry my husband all over again. Tom Hanks gave a fabulous performance—understated, real, and believable.
—FW, age 38

It's 8:38 a.m. eastern time on Feb. 13 -- the Academy Award nominations are about to be announced -- and director Steven Soderbergh is not glued to a TV. He's at Trump Plaza casino in Atlantic City, three days into shooting Ocean's 11, and he's having a bad morning. For half an hour, he's been trying to nail a shot of George Clooney -- cast as heist mastermind Danny Ocean -- riding up an escalator and disappearing into a crowd on the gambling floor. Soderbergh is also acting as his own cinematographer and principal camera operator on the $90 million film. But he just can't operate his way through this setup.
''The idea was to start facing George, then turn and follow him as he gets off the escalator,'' the filmmaker explains later. ''We tried a dolly move in. That didn't work. We tried it hand-held. That didn't work either.''
In the middle of Soderbergh's exasperation, the synchronized bleating of umpteen cell phones suddenly cuts through the slot-machine din. The whole world wants to congratulate him on the 10 nominations his 2000 releases, Erin Brockovich and Traffic, have just received. Each earned Best Director, Best Picture, and best screenplay nods -- as sports-minded Soderbergh calls it, ''a triple double.''
Not that you could tell from his immediate on-set reaction. ''I just had kind of a blank look on my face,'' he says. ''As if to say, 'Will you please just tell me something that will help me figure this shot out?' At that particular moment, I was feeling very unprofessional and very unexceptional.''
And maybe overwhelmed, given the campaigning demands of awards season. For months, Soderbergh has refused to lobby for one of his movies at the expense of the other. But execs at USA Films obviously have much more at stake in promoting Traffic's five nods -- which helped boost the picture's take by 69 percent the weekend after the announcement (bringing its gross to $80 million) -- than Universal execs do in trumpeting the five for Erin Brockovich, which took in $125.6 million during its initial run. ''Steven can't choose, he'll never choose,'' says USA Films president Russell Schwartz. ''And he shouldn't, because then he'll be accused of falling into the fray.''
Still, that won't stop USA from trying to position Traffic as the fresher, edgier, more artistically ambitious Soderbergh film that most deserves Academy votes. And there's no question that what Soderbergh, USA Films, and Laura Bickford, one of the producers, went through to get Traffic made is a much juicier, dramatic, nothing-will-stop-us tale than the relatively smooth ride of Erin Brockovich.
''Twelve months ago, it looked like the whole thing was going to fall off a cliff and just crash on the rocks,'' says Soderbergh.
What almost pushed it over the edge? Let's flash back, like Soderbergh often does in his movies, and zero in on three crucial production moments when Traffic hit red lights.
A Ford Escort
Harrison Ford first considered playing drug czar Robert Wakefield in January 2000, after reading an early script draft -- the same version Michael Douglas had declined a few weeks earlier. Producer Bickford was at home one morning when Ford's manager, Pat McQueeney, called to pitch his interest. ''I told Pat, 'Nothing would make us happier,' '' says Bickford. '' 'But we hear you never cut your price, and we don't have three months to wait to hear a no.' ''

S&P expects U.S. lawsuit over pre-crisis credit ratings
(Reuters) – Standard & Poor's said it expects to be the target of a U.S. Department of Justice civil lawsuit over its mortgage bond ratings, the first federal enforcement action against a credit rating agency over alleged illegal behavior tied to the recent financial crisis.
Shares of McGraw-Hill Cos, the parent of S&P, plunged 13.8 percent on Monday after news of the pending lawsuit surfaced, their biggest one-day percentage decline since the 1987 stock market crash, according to Reuters data.
An announcement of a lawsuit is expected on Tuesday, a person familiar with the matter said.
The news also caused shares of Moody's Corp, whose Moody's Investors Service unit is S&P's main rival, to slide 10.7 percent.
It is unclear why regulators may be now focusing on S&P rather than Moody's or Fimalac SA's Fitch Ratings.

"It is unclear why regulators may be now focusing on S&P rather than Moody's or Fimalac SA's Fitch Ratings."
For those of us not burdened with a Journalism School degree it isn't so hard.
A clue.

What I meant to add is that there must be a revenge motive on why the DOJ investigation.+4
There are many other rating agencies that will hammer our credit rating. Investors, the ultimate "raters" will continue to downgrade our currency. Anybody in the equity markets now is a pure D sucker.+4
The double-A is actually close to a "C" in real world grading. Forget the pluses and minuses. Just go with the letters.
You don't want to know about anything lower than A+/F. Which tells you how bad our credit rating really is.
The only reason the feds are initiating this suit is to punish those telling the truth. 0bama cannot be shown to be the failure that he truly is.+3
"You don't want to know about anything lower than A+/F."
Those in crapholes like Illinois beg to differ.+1
It'll keep the rest of em in line, too.
As I said, the gov't is a criminal organization.
Holder is the enforcer thug.+1

PS. It would also be nice if we could directly click on the database link in mysql and have it open phpmyadmin right from there with the dault username/password configured in.
Do you have a link to that script?

Jerry's Baked Beans
via mantestedrecipes.com 2 years, 1 month ago
This is how I, Jerry, make a jazzed up baked bean dish. The secret is to pack plain ol' canned baked beans with plenty of bacon, BBQ sauce, smoke flavor, and, yes, ranch dressing too!

The road freight market in Europe was "subdued" from November 2012 to January 2013, according to the Freightex European Road Freight Rate Index compiled by Transport Intelligence.
The market experienced "short bursts of volatility" during that period, driven primarily by the European recession. The index, which identifies price fluctuations, rose from a low of 113.0 points in November to a high of 117.8 on Jan. 1. Through January, however, the index saw declines. Comparatively, the index rose 8 points over the same three-month period in the previous year.
Overall, prices are about the same as last year, although this year's high of 117.8 was an increase from last year's 116 points. Conversely, 2012's rise in rates during the Christmas season was "much less dramatic than normal."
