NCSL's election experts break down the midterm state legislative elections along voters' verdict on statewide ballot measures.
Current Issue
Welcome to Statecast, NCSL's podcast. Statecast offers interviews with the leaders and experts shaping policy in our nation's statehouses. Statecast is recorded in NCSL's Washington, D.C. office and is hosted by NCSL's Jon Kuhl.
Statecast is available here on our website and on iTunes, where listeners are able to subscribe to the podcast. Have an idea for a Statecast guest?
Email us- we'd love to hear your suggestions!
Did you know that along with all 50 states, the District of Columbia and Puerto Rico, the U.S. Virgin Islands are also a member of NCSL? To hear about some of the unique challenges facing the U.S. Virgin Islands, NCSL's Jon Kuhl sat down for an interview with Senate President Shawn-Michael Malone, head of the territory's unicameral legislature.
As cars become more fuel-efficient and fewer people drive, states are faced with a problem: How to continue funding crucial transportation and infrastructure projects with diminishing revenues from state gasoline taxes.
In February, the Virginia legislature met this challenge head on. Lawmakers there passed a transportation reform bill that The Washington Post called "historic." To discuss the bipartisan legislation, NCSL's Jon Kuhl interviewed Virginia House Speaker Bill Howell.
NCSL's fiscal policy expert Todd Haggerty discusses what states have done to prepare for sequestration and other federal cuts.
In this week's Statecast, we're focusing on sequestration and how it will affect states. In an interview with NCSL fiscal affairs expert Jeff Hurley, Jeff explains which programs will be affected and by how much.

Important Notice : Avoiding Fraud
It's rare, but some helpful hints to watch out for with regards to fraud:
- It is important to NEVER wire funds or use/employ other fund transfer mechanisms such as western union: Always use a credit card to protect yourself against fraud. If owners pressure you into providing a deposit or refuse to accept credit cards, there is a high probability that this is a scam.
- If at all suspicious of fraud, ask to see their website, or any other literature they can provide or send to you. Ask them for contact details for guests who have previously stayed on their property insisting on telephone numbers. Be suspicious of emails that originate from free email services (yahoo, hotmail, gmail, etc)
- Research the property thoroughly on the internet to see if there is any history or mention of scams associated with the property.

The Company also announced that the recycling division has begun operations in its 150,000 square foot building which is on our adjoining property to the stainless and non-ferrous operations. The Company recently took back possession of this building and it will be primarily used for stainless steel and high temperature alloys.ISA's 2009 SEC filings are available for review at the Securities and Exchange Commission web site at http://www.sec.gov/edgar/searchedgar/companysearch.html. About ISA Headquartered in Louisville, Kentucky, Industrial Services of America, Inc., is a publicly traded company whose core business is buying, processing and marketing scrap metals and recyclable materials for domestic users and export markets. Additionally, ISA offers commercial, industrial and business customers a variety of programs and equipment to efficiently manage waste. More information about ISA is available at www.isa-inc.com. This news release contains forward-looking statements that involve risks and uncertainties that could cause actual results to differ from predicted results. Specific risks include fluctuations in the price of recycled materials, varying demand for waste managing systems, equipment and services, competitive pressures in the waste managing systems and equipment, competitive pressures in the waste managing business, and loss of customers. Further information on factors that could affect ISA's results is detailed in ISA's filings with the Securities and Exchange Commission. ISA undertakes no obligation to publicly release the results of any revisions to the forward-looking statements.

This is when somebody tries to ruin someone else's romantic relationship or marriage. There are various reasons someone might do this. One of the most common is that the saboteur is in love with one of the people in the relationship, and is willing to stoop pretty low to "correct" this situation. (In extreme cases, they may even try to Murder the Hypotenuse.) Alternatively, it could be that they just want Revenge for something, or that they want to free up one of the parties for a bit of gold digging, or that they're simply bitter that someone else is so happy and they're not. Sometimes, they may even be acting from a genuine, well-intentioned, and possibly even accurate belief that their friend has made a poor choice or should have chosen someone else. The range of techniques available to a relationship saboteur is similarly varied. Lying is popular - you just need to make one half of the relationship look bad, such as by fabricating evidence of an affair or trying to make them flunk a Fidelity Test. It could be as simple as giving deliberately lousy relationship advice. If the relationship is fairly new, being a deliberate Moment Killer might be an option, and might prompt the saboteur to follow the targets on dates. See also Break Up Demand for a different method of achieving the same goal. If a character simply makes their dislike of the pairing known, it's probably just a Shipping Torpedo. Contrast Shipper on Deck, where someone is trying to create a relationship rather than destroy one.

I had two injuries from my big fall in 2012. A painful broken upper arm, and a lisfranc fracture and dislocation of my right foot. The arm is quite healed and I'm able to do almost everything with it that I used to.
The foot was a much more complicated injury, and healing took a long time. My surgeon told me it might be one to two years before the foot was healed as far as it would heal. At two years I figured the healing was done and I would be stuck with continuing pain in the foot whenever I walked. It was tolerable, but things like going down stairs were very difficult. A few months later I notice the doctor was wrong. The healing is ongoing!
Now when he first told me it could be a couple of years I know he was trying to set my expectations so I wouldn't be as impatient for healing, and he knew my foot will never be quite the same. But now I am thrilled to realize the healing continues beyond two years. Every day walking is usually pain free now with just occasional aches and pains, no worse than the other foot which has some arthritis. I can walk down stairs now without holding onto the rail as though my life depended on it. And each month it seems there is still some slight improvement. I'm very, very happy.
I wasn't great at keeping up my entries on this goal, so there are a lot of stories missing that I may have to write elsewhere. But I'm so glad I started the goal and recorded some of the journey here. It has been therapeutic and has made me so grateful for what I have to read the old entries.
Thank you, 43Things. 4 months ago

Quite old interior
in the city center very basic apartment
paints falling off the wall and there were patches in the toilet. Door was with chipping wood.
Location and the large balcony
Cleaning lady making noise in sunday morning at 8 am
The location was great very close to the main town and beaches. Apartment was very spacious.
The Location and the big terras.
Bathroom had a lot of mildew, molds and moisture damage at the ceiling, walls and the door. The owner is well aware that he needs to put new rubber under the shower door, but lacks to do this. As a result when taking a shower the water runs over the batroom floor into the hall. The wooden floor in the hall is damaged very badly due to this. It is a shame that this app is still rented to people. We paid more then 400€ for 2 nights which is a lot of money for a place full of molds, mildew and moisture. The same week we stayed in an app in hotel Mariano, we paid a bit more but this was fantastic ! Perfect location, nice app, super terras, and CLEAN !!!
The apartment is located in the heart of Ibiza town. It is two minutes away from the port (from where ferries to other Baleric islands depart). Plenty of places to eat out nearby depending on what you would like - bars, cafes, fast food chains or fine-dining restaurants. The apartment is spacious and comfortably fits five people. Staff was very prompt in replies to all communication.
Nice and clean apartment, good wifi, excellent position
Great apartment on the good location for good price
Best location. Central but out of the loud/party area. 5 minutes walk to the port, 12 minute taxi drive to the airport. There is also a car rental 1 minute away called Casa Valentin, cheaper than mainstream car rentals. The lady running the place is great! Super friendly and helpful. Definitely stay there again.
It's not luxurious. Mattress a little soft for my taste but practical for our long weekend.
Great location in Ibiza town. Close to bus stops, restaurants and cafes. Only a 15minute walk to Pacha club. Great value for money if you are with a group of friends on a tight budget.
No reception desk - only open during certain hours. Towels were only replaced on the last morning.
We had a fabulous stay at Los Robles and were accommodated way beyond obligation by our lovely host. The apartment is a great size, spacious bedrooms, lovely terrace and a fine sized living area if you plan to stay in. We didn't. We spent the majority of time exploring the very beautiful town of Ibiza. It was an absolute pleasure to stay there and I would not hesitate to return. We were a group of 5 ladies, but the apartment is also ideal for families. Thanks so much, Mayte!
I liked absolutely everything about the accommodation - the central location with easy access to airport and bus station and walking distance to all important sights in Ibiza city! Shopping and enterntaimnet just next door! Great service and helpfulness by the receptionist Mayte, rooms clean and spacious, very good price. Large balcony, excellent wifi connection!
I loved everything!
The location was very central The balcony gave us a great view of the street. Mayte, the receptionist was helpful and friendly. We had the opportunity to have fresh towels and cleaning every second day. There was regular hot water.
The apartment was older and a little run down but generally clean. The kitchen could have been a little better equipped.
Location, area of apartment, value of money.
The oven doesnt work.

Oh Jacoby Smith. He wasn't happy with his quadruple amputee girlfriend Tiesha Bell because she was blocking his view of the TV. So he threw her to the ground and punched her in the face at least 10 times The most insane part? He claimed he did it out of self defense because Tiesha hit him in the face with a bedpan full of urine. Tiesha later admitted she was partially to blame for the incident and hopes to marry Jacoby some day. Wow.

So the U.S. Senate on Wednesday took a surprisingly anti-Real ID Act
stand in a vote related to the immigration bill being debated this week.
The proceduralia is a little complex: fans of Real ID tried to table
(that is, kill) an anti-Real ID amendment sponsored by Baucus and
Tester. That vote failed by 45 to 52.
An article I wrote is here:
A list of the amendments with page numbers is here:
You can see that the Baucus-Tester amendment starts on page 131, so go
to that page in this PDF:
This is the underlying bill it's amending (search for Real ID, including
in section 302):
This is preliminary, true, but it's refreshing to see some skepticism
about Real ID in what purports to be the world's greatest deliberative
body. A press release follows.
June 27, 2007
Senators' Measure To Get Rid Of REAL ID Stalls Sweeping Immigration Bill
(WASHINGTON, D.C.) - Montana Sens. Max Baucus and Jon Tester brought the
debate over immigration reform to a grinding halt today on the Senate
floor. After opponents of Baucus and Tester's amendment to strike REAL
ID requirements failed to muster a majority of votes, debate on the
controversial immigration bill came to a standstill.
Baucus and Tester's provision strikes language from the immigration bill
that requires employers to check the eligibility of their prospective
employees only using identification documents that comply with REAL ID,
a federal mandate the Montana senators say amounts to a national ID
Opponents failed to kill the Baucus-Tester amendment today on a thin
45-52 vote. It wasn't immediately clear what effect the vote will have
on the underlying bill, but opponents have called the provisions a "deal
breaker" as it relates to the whole immigration bill. Baucus said he
thinks the vote is a "death knell to a bad immigration bill." Senate
business, which was early slated to extend into Wednesday evening,
halted for the night after the controversial Baucus-Tester vote.
"We scored a major victory today in our efforts to protect privacy and
defeat a bad immigration bill at the same time," said Baucus, Montana's
senior U.S. Senator. "If Jon and I just brought down the entire bill,
that's good for Montana and the country."
REAL ID requires states to standardize their driver's licenses and build
costly new databases that the federal government can access, essentially
creating a national ID system. Earlier this year, the Montana
Legislature unanimously passed legislation refusing to implement the
program because it invades privacy and can expose private information to
identity thieves, and because of its enormous cost.
Tester, a member of the Senate Homeland Security Committee and a staunch
supporter of privacy rights, said REAL ID isn't needed to toughen
national security.
"If by fighting to keep government out of people's private lives, Max
Baucus and I stopped the senate from passing this flawed immigration
bill, then this was a real victory for Montana and the American people,"
Tester said.
Baucus and Tester cited several other reasons for their amendment:
* Employers don't need REAL ID to verify the eligibility of their
employees. They currently check eligibility using existing documents,
such as birth certificates, a drivers license, or a passport.
* More and more states are rejecting the REAL ID Act. Fifteen
other states in addition to Montana have enacted legislation opposing or
refusing to implement the program.
* The immigration bill only authorizes $1.5 billion for REAL ID,
although estimates put the actual cost for states as high as $23

Internet Marketing Consultant – a business opportunity and an in-demand career for today and in the future.
Internet marketing has turned into a huge industry that offers many different kinds of employment through companies who wish to promote their business online. This is where the term "internet marketing consultant" originated from.
Just a few years ago, internet marketing consulting was something that most people had never heard of, but today, there are thousands of individuals and firms offering online promotional services through consulting. If you are thinking about offering online consulting services, there are a few things to be aware of before getting started.
Skills of an Internet Marketing Consultant
First of all, an internet marketing consultant have to possess experience, along with great portfolios. A potential client will find it more convincing if he is able to see your work and also contact previous customers. This way, they can tell him more about the services you offer and whether or not they are satisfied with the work that you have provided.
A company has to know what kind of specific internet marketing services they are being offered, so if you are interested in becoming a successful internet marketing consultant, you need to be aware of your job duties. These usually include services such as boosting a website's visibility, attracting new customers and enhancing the site's effectiveness and performance. Other services can also include online marketing research and helping to create the client's advertising campaigns. If you are able to offer these services and can do them well, you will have more work than you can handle.
Good marketing strategies should also not focus solely on the generation of traffic to boost a website's profit. Site design also needs to considered, along with the way information is offered to interested consumers through various online platforms. You may also want to consider offering newsletter and discussion group services through your business as an internet marketing consultant, as well. These types of communication tend to have the most positive effects on potential customers.
Ethics of a Successful Internet Marketing Consultant
In order to be a successful internet marketing consultant, you must be sure to remain honest and perform your duties ethically. This means absolutely no spam! If you are hired to carry out marketing services for a company and think that you are going to flood strangers' e-mails with promotional messages, you will lose your job. By performing such acts, you are putting your employer's business at risk and this always unacceptable. Companies aren't paying you to harass or bother people, they want you to help them find customers the right way.
You too can enjoy a great lifestyle by gaining the necessary skills to become a successful internet marketing consultant.

We've noticed speed issues when using PCs with Win 7 / Office 2010. If we revert back to an old laptop (lower spec) with XP and office 2003, the reports generate much faster.

We've noticed speed issues when using PCs with Win 7 / Office 2010. If we revert back to an old laptop (lower spec) with XP and office 2003, the reports generate much faster.
I used to have individual reports that took an age and a day, but they had graphs in. As soon as I removed the graphs they were considerably quicker.
Still, as Vik says, check to see what your workstation is doing when you run the reports. When something is running slow it's always useful to find the 'bottle-neck'. Bring up TaskManager and monitor the LAN, CPU and RAM usage over the time it takes to produce a few students' reports. If you can RDP to the SIMS server, bring the same up on there. If the RAM usage goes up to near max, also check for Page / Hard Faults for Winword or Pulsar. This means it's having to dive to the pagefile on the HDD to find stuff and that will be SLOOOOOW (the pagefile can be well over 100 times slower than RAM).
You don't say what type of CPU, nor what OS you're running on the workstation. If a P4 based CPU running Windows 7, or Vista, then yes, I'd expect it to take that long. If I'm absolutley honest, 1GB of RAM is not enough regardless of OS or CPU. 2GB on Windows XP or 4GB on Vista / 7 is where you'll want to be, in an ideal world. Preventing programs using the pagefile is usually far more beneficial that a faster CPU (unless it's a P4 based CPU, then that should be in the bin IMHO).
Let us know the results of the above tests.
If your reports are taking awhile to run or load up, you can try some of the steps below which may speed things up...
You clean out the SIMStempRPT folder which is located within My Documents. You can delete all the contents as this will be recreated when running another report.
You can re-import reports via Reports - Import (within SIMS) and chose the latest version of reports for you to import.
Or it could simply be the report your trying to run needs a filter or more filters to break down the amount of information. This can be done by editing the report in design mode.
If you need further information, don't heistate to contact me.
@RichSpriggs - I believe the OP is referring to Individual Reports from [Focus > Assessment > Individual Report], rather than reports run from [Reports > Run Reports].
However, useful stuff for when those reports aren't running well.
:welcome: @RichSpriggs :D
@RichSpriggs - thanks for your advice, however I am referring to Individual Reports as @NorthernSands said :)
I must mention at this point that the time taken for the individual reports to run in assessment in our case has nothing to do with the workstation/server specifications. This is a major fault that Capita need to fix. Considering I have tested these slow reports on a server with dual E5540 processors and 48GB of RAM this is far from the issue!
The "problem" here is schools are reusing previous reports year on year and I assume by reusing these reports after various Capita SIMS upgrades where the data has been moved about, fields added etc is in fact more of a timeout issue. In most cases by completely recreating the report from scratch it runs in a matter of seconds.
This is 100% a Capita issue and needs to be fixed. A look on SupportNet will show that loads of other people are having exactly the same issue with one comment being "we just have to put up with it". This is not good enough and something needs to be done about this issue.
Many of our schools are very glad we are going out to tender for another MIS.
Hopefully Phil Neal will listen and get someone in development to actually look into the issue rather than tell us "It shouldn't take that long". Correct, it shouldn't but it does for a lot of SIMS.NET users.
As mentioned earlier in this thread, if you'd like to make contact with me I will get an expert to contact you and if necessary visit to find ot more.
I do not agree that there is a generic problem with the printing of AM7 Individual Reports. Or it just does not manifest itself on our system!
We have been printing them very successfully for many years, since AM6 days, without suffering speed issues. This includes using previous reports year on year, though the Template always has to be edited anyway to account for the changes that need to be made to the different results sets required for each new reorting period.
Recently we have moved to a new style of reports that contain much more graphical information, such as English and Maths progress graphs, with Achievement plotted against Targets over a Key Stage.
This has obviously slowed the printing down somewhat, so that we now print a Reg Group at a time rather than a full Year group. However we are satisfied with the time it takes to produce each set of reports.
There are a lot of issues recently, and it does need looking at, however, we found that the issues were mostly, OS and permissions based and fixing those has allowed the usual speed of running reports, though in general SIMS does appear to be quite slow on 2008. Nonetheless if you have a potential workaround even if it is a full recreation of the report that's promising for those of us that just want the job done now.
Did you find that a verify would fail on your old reports, or do you think it might be the built-in tags that were to blame..
What SQL edition is the OP running out of interest?
Whether the problem is with SIMS or our particular SQL setup here the last few sets of individual reports I have produced have been very slow. The point about reusing old reports again and again should not really make any difference if using result sets for the data being inserted and I do not even want to recreate the report templates. Like Sivadam we have been using them since the AM6 but unlike him I think that the problem is SIMS related.
SQL express or full?
The only major issues we've had have been due to Client OS. Mostly Win7 coupled with Office 2010 and some very shoddy roaming profiles and redirect documents folders. Resetting profiles or running on XP have resolved the issue, so if it is something weird with SIMS it's more the way it interacts with the client rather than something intrinsically wrong. However, there are numerous threads on these client side issues so it would be good if they were investigated further. I've started getting "Error: Object Reference Not set to an instance of object" errors again for running regular data reports. Only solution is to reset profile - really frustrating. :(

The Limits of the Homo Sapien
The Limits of the
Homo Sapien
Life...is like a box of chocolates. A cheap, thoughtless, perfunctory gift that nobody ever asks for. Unreturnable, because all you get back is another box of chocolates. So, you're stuck with this undefinable whipped mint crap that you mindlessly wolf down when there's nothing else left to eat. Sure, once in a while, there's a peanut butter cup, or an english toffee, but they're gone too fast, and the taste is...fleeting. So you end up with nothing but broken bits filled with hardened jelly and teeth-shattering nuts. And if you're desperate enough to eat those, all you've got left is an empty box filled with useless brown paper wrappers."
- Musings of a Cigarette Smoking Man
In this world of ours, we are weak. We have somehow survived, despite the traits that differentiate us from other organisms. Compassion, economy, and the ability to transmit knowledge are traits that would logically limit our potential. Yet it seems we thrive. However, we are not thriving. We have continually gone down the wrong path, and rarely ever gone down the right one. Perhaps our greatest error is that we learn nothing from an experience down either extreme. So we continue travelling down the wrong road, for we do not apply experience to our lives.
I've just joined this forum, yet already I have seen much. I've seen blind adolescents that would willingly do anything for an idol. I've seen corrupt members of the "cyber-bourgeois" that are filling that role as an idol. And occasionaly, no
, I see the member that is enlightened. He opposes all that is wrong, and determines his own ideas. He realizes that the bourgeoisie are creating privileges with their power. However, these enlightened ones are rare.
This guide is for those blinded or corrupted that wish to learn how to lead their lives. It is open to everyone, and I hope that my holy lessons will help you become better than you are now.
Also, if you have anything to add, you may discuss my superior intellect in this thread. Absorb the divinity, my children.

Re: The Limits of the Homo Sapien
Lesson 1: Take No Chances
"Essentially, life is one big pile of ****."
- Robert Alan Seace
The Second Gulf War began as a popular event that involved almost every resources of the nation, and many of its public servants. This war allowed corrupt government officials to distract from domestic policies, and utilize taxes without improving the standard of life. Now why would one not wish to improve the standard of life? Because of class society. If the High (which forms the government) were to raise the standard of living, the gap between the classes would lesson, and there would be no classes. However, to overtly waste government funds would cause rebellion. However, if a staged event were able to captivate the nation into a jingoistic frenzy, then the government would not only have support, but the positions of the High would be secure for atleast a few more years; a few years in which they could figure out how to rule the next few years.
That war in Iraq is thanks to many of our despots who used their slaves known as us to make the event both heavily supported yet challenging. However, the real thanks (or to put it in another perspective, blame) goes to a single corrupted official: George W. Bush.
When elected, Bush was a generally unknown politician except in his home state, Texas. However, he did have one ability/flaw that set him apart: the ability to foolishly gamble. Bush honestly believed that the war in Iraq was just, because the Iraqis were evil. In a stroke of brilliance, he staged the events that happened on September 11, 2001, and he set everyone involved down a path to war, tragedy, and stupidity. He never actually fought in the war, but everyone fighting in Iraq and Afghanistan today owes him for their homesickness, wounds, injuries, and deaths.
Now Bush could have easily given up with 9/11. He could have doubted that anyone would listen to a new president, or even join the military. He might even have feared that he would be rejected for his warmongering. Had he listened to any of these negative thoughts, then the war(s) never would have been started, and the nation would be an advanced, cultural, intellectual utopia. However, he had a foolish gambler in him, and he invaded Afghanistan, which worked. However, this only fueled his ego. After that, Bush did not finish with terrorism, but worked with it and he invaded Iraq. His risktaking started the ******-up war/nation/area known as Iraq.
It is from Bush that we can learn to never take a foolish chance. Many times, people think that taking a chance will automatically lead to a positive outcome.
What if I succeed? Everyone might love it!
Well, that's not true; anything that CAN go wrong, WILL go wrong. However, as these foolishly positive thoughts tighten their vice-like grip on blind fools, these people decide to actually PURSUE the foolish risks. They lose instantaneously, for they have already begun the road to inevitable failure
Defeat only lies with those who have the stupidity to take the first step. If you set the first few stones, you get a false sense of confidence, only to realize stones sink in water, and you're swimming into a shark-infested ocean. People like George W. Bush, Joseph Stalin, and Adolf Hitler all took chances in order to achieve their foolish dreams and goals. They thought that a chance meant automatic road to victory, but they didn't realize that if they don't start the road to failure, they won't fail.
Normal people also seem to have foolish gallantry. They seem to all think that success is definite, but success is sets on early, only to disappear just as quickly. For example, I tried out for the pee-wee baseball team once, thinking that I would have instantaneous success; after all, chances are the road to victory, no? I thought I was doing very well during the tryouts. I thought I had succeeded. But no, I had failed. I did not make the team. It caused me much grief, sadness, and I cried for weeks. Now consider this: if I had not tried at all, would I have had grief? No, I would not have. If anything, I would have had happiness, because I did not meet failure, yet I could always emulate success by thinking and saying, "If I had tried out, I would have made it."
So do not think chances mean success. If success comes to you at all, it will only boost your ego to bring about an even more painful downfall. Success exists only in your mind. Besides, starting already means starting a road to failure. The only way to fail is by beginning.
So do not go ahead and try to ask a G-mod to ban this or that noob; you'll be ridiculed. Do not post your fan fiction, or you doodles. Do not try to ask the administrators to create a new section for _______. You ARE WEAK. You have no ability but the ones you believe you have; yet these are not real. Have intellect and toss aside foolish faith and blind courage. You cannot fail if you do not begin.
Remember, you are insignificant. Now remain idle and do nothing.

Resident of 'crack house' arrested on drug charges
Updated On: Jun 20 2014 12:36:40 PM EDT
A woman has been charged with selling drugs three months after her father painted the words "crack house" on the New York home where she lived.
The Warren County Sheriff's Office tells The Post-Star of Glens Falls that 30-year-old Alisa Smith of Queensbury has been charged with selling crack cocaine and heroin between January and April.
At the time, Smith and her father were involved in a dispute over her living at the Queensbury rental home he owns. Frustrated over failed efforts to evict his daughter and another tenant he believed were involved in drugs, the father spray-painted the words crack house, heroin and meth on the house in February.
He later removed the graffiti.
Smith is in the county jail. It couldn't be determined if she has a lawyer.

THE BAD:It is hard to find any things worth saying that are bad about this game. It is a true boxing game so if you are not interested in thr fighting genre, you might not be able to fully enjoy ths game.
SUMMARY:In conclusion I found the week I had with this game was as long as anyone really would need to have unless they truly love it and they want to have it around forever.
THE BAD:clumsy game play
SUMMARY:Okay so when I heard that this game had the King of Pop himself as a playable character, I had to pick it up. I found the graphics and animation in this puppy excellent. The voice acting is also very well done. The characters are diverse and varied in appearance and manor. Playing each of the characters is a laugh riot, testing their taunts and sending them into "Rumble Mode" is just loads of fun to watch and hear. Although you should shortly get sick of the phrase "Let's get ready to rumble!" because the soundbyte is used more often than the punch sound effect. Sadly the characters aren't the only thing to laugh at in this game, the gameplay itself is laughable in a frustrating way. Defense is a difficult thing to accomplish in this style of fighter, and you'll spend most of your time getting beat down by the computer. I played through it once on Easy just to unlock Michael Jackson as a playable charac...

I *should* be doing school work but I just can't seem to muster up the energy to do it. Bleh.
I did manage to go through some clothes today to get ready for vacay, and found some stuff that I have under-grown. It is going to stay in a bag in the closet - if it's still too big by next winter, then I get rid of it. I've read the article on Spark that say you should get rid of clothing that is too big, but I have decided to keep this stuff hidden away for a while.
This morning I did two great workouts - a cycle class and then sports conditioning. I am feeling very strong, and the classes are getting easier. Yahoo!
- do a little school work
- drink more water
- plan out meals for the weekend
- ? I'm keeping it low-key today.
I think counting down to spring break is almost as exciting as counting down to the last day of school! In nine days I will be headed down to the Florida sun and warmth. Hurrah!
So for the time remaining until I go, I am kicking it HARD for Operation t.u.m.m. Careful and mindful eating, gettin' sweaty at the gym and on my runs, and sucking down the water. I notice a difference - last night's Pilates class was "easier" than it's ever been! My core is getting stronger!
- three miles on the TM. It's pretty windy, so I'm just going to make it an indoor run today.
- yoga class at noon. I NEED some yoga. My body wants to strrrrrretch!
- lots of water
- follow my eating plan
- school work
Today was a really productive day! I ran some errands, cleaned up the house, and planned some meals and workouts. Yahoo!
I also made some AMAZING treats - the recipe follows. It's from the blog rabbitfoodformybunnyteeth.com - I highly recommend you go there. There are lots of great tips and even a how-to to make a workout shirt! I made one and I love it.
Drank tons of water, got in some GREAT sweat time, and found some treasures at the thrift shop (and yes, I do sing the song in my head when I'm in there). I got a Diane von Furstenberg wrap shirt for 2.50, and a denim jacket (I've been looking for one!) in PERFECT condition for 5.00. How awesome is that?!?
Not much else - tomorrow is a little 3-mile run and afternoon yoga. My body seriously needs some yoga.
Coconana Bars
Makes 6 bars
1/2 cup whole wheat flour
1 banana � mashed
1/4 cup sweetened shredded coconut
1/4 cup silken tofu � blended
4 Tbsp Splenda Brown Sugar Blend (or 1/2 cup brown sugar)
1/2 tsp vanilla extract
1/4 tsp rum extract
1/2 tsp salt
1/2 tsp baking powder
Optional Toppings
1/2 Tbsp powdered sugar
1/8 tsp cinnamon
Preheat oven to 350 F degrees. Blend the tofu in a blender until smooth. Transfer mashed tofu into a mixing bowl. Mash the banana and combine with tofu. Next, add the brown sugar, vanilla extract, rum extract, and coconut to the tofu banana mixture. Stir until well mixed. In a separate bowl, mix the dry ingredients (flour, baking powder, and salt ).Pour the tofu banana mixture into the dry ingredients and gently fold the ingredients together until well combined (be gentle, and do not over stir the batter or the bars will come out tough). Spray a 9 x 5in loaf pan with nonstick spray. Pour batter into the pan and bake for 13-14 minutes.
Note: The center should be a little gooey and soft. If overcooked, they can have a tough rubbery texture. There is no harm in undercooking the bars since there are no eggs!
If you�re feeling fancy, mix powdered sugar and cinnamon together and sprinkle over the bars right after they come out of the oven. Cut and serve for a healthy dessert.
I have class in a short bit, but enough time to recap my day. I had a really hard time getting up with the alarm this morning - didn't sleep very well last night. Ugh. So 30 minutes of snooze later, I got up and ready to run. The plan for today was 8.5 miles - I mapped it out over the weekend so I knew where I was going. Since now I guess I'm in "real training mode," I think I should be keeping track of when and what I eat and how I feel. So I had a little cereal and a cup of coffee about 30 minutes before I went out. I felt good, but I think I could probably stand to wait a little closer to an hour after eating before I run. Took a Hammer gel with me, had it with some water about an hour in. I am quickly getting used to the Hammer gels and I love the energy it gives me to finish strong. My legs started getting a little sore toward the end, but I kind of expected it, as this was MY LONGEST RUN EVERRRRRRRRR!!!!!! Yes, that's right. Hurrah!
Then, because I'm insane, I went to the gym to take a cycle class and an abs class (but to be fair, I went to cycle to see how it was run, and I did a VERY EASY recovery ride). Dropped off my paperwork to work as a Spinning instructor (yay!) and got a free membership. Look out - I'm going to be totally buff by summer. The gym here is SOOOO nice and I could spend a very long time there. I can get back into some strength training and a more regular routine! Yay!
I pretty much stuck to the eating plan today. I *did* have some chocolate chip cookies after my run because I was RAVENOUS and couldn't wait for my enchiladas to bake, but I am doing well with Operation T.U.M.M. My beachy self is going to be ready ready ready for the sun and sand and sunscreen and bikini!
I am going to have some dinner in class tonight. I made a PB&J and have a pear and blue cheese. I have decided that I can't sacrifice my good eating for class - everyone is just going to have to deal with me eating my food there. I can't go through the rest of the semester having a latte and a muffin for dinner three nights a week!
OK! Off to class and to have some dinner!
ARGH my blog disappeared!
- water!
- food plan!
- work hard at cycle class!
- remember that I'll be sitting on the beach in two weeks!
