If there is any single thing which I believe most strongly, it is that we all have the capacity to bring our most cherished dreams to life. What is required is motivating goals, discipline, honesty, and sufficient personal power to ACT.
Life is a wonderful, complex, demanding game. The way to win is to decide what you want, focus on that goal, surround yourself with people who will support your dream, and nurture the ability to laugh at yourself.

Hi. I'm just starting up a new MTB build. I've got a Cannondale F600 frame that I was gonna build as a singlespeed project.
I have a bit of doubt though. You see, where I live (Ontario) I have a long drive down gravel roads to get to the trails I wanna ride. On a normal geared MTB I dont mind the gravel roads at all. Sometimes I dont even go to the trails. I just ride around on the gravel roads. Its a beautiful area.
Do you guys think that it would be lame riding a singlespeed bike down 10 miles of gravel road (and back) or would it be just as fun as on a geared bike?

Roman Augustoviz spends Minnesota's winters covering college hockey, specifically the Gophers, and other University of Minnesota sports. During the summer, he writes about the WNBA's Minnesota Lynx, with a dose of U sports sprinkled in. Follow him on Twitter @RomanStrib.
"That's by far the best team we've seen," Tulsa coach Gary Kloppenburg said after his Shock lost to the Lynx 93-73 on Saturday at home. "I mean they're all very skilled, their bigs rebound hard and they don't really have any weaknesses."
Five players scored in double figures for the Lynx. Four of them were starers: Maya Moore had 26 points, two shy of a career high, Monica Wright 18, Rebekkah Brunson 15 and Taj McWilliams-Franklin and reserve Candice Wiggins 11 apiece.
Wright started in place of Seimone Augustus, who missed her second game in a tow with a strained right quadriceps.
"That second group in there could probably make the playoffs, their second five," Kloppenburg said, according to a Shock news release. "They are really, really good. Coming off last night [a 98-91 overtime loss at Chicago] I thought we really battled them, down two at the half and you could feel it. The energy level wasn't there that second half."
Tulsa was within 44-42 at the half. The Shock bench actually outscored the Lynx reserves 34-15.
"Our game was trying to create some turnovers, disrupt and we were just a step slow," Kloppenburg said. "They got some good open looks and they can really shoot the ball."
The Lynx had 16 turnovers, Tulsa 19.
"You've got to tip your hat to that [team]," said Tulsa guard Temeka Johnson, who played on Phoenix' 2009 WNBA championship team. "I just finished telling them the trophy is over there. They have something that everybody wants and they're also trying to keep it.
"You have to respect the talent that they have and they played well without one of their top players. Minnesota is a very talented team. We need to keep chipping away to figure out a way to get our W."
The loss made Tulsa 0-8 this season, 0-14 going back to the end of 2011. The Lynx tied a WNBA record with their ninth win in a row to start the season and have won 15 consecutive games counting last year's playoffs.
"I'm happy I was able to contribute, help my team, and step up in scoring," Moore said. "I felt like I had so many more opportunities I could have scored. I felt like I should have had 30 or 35 [points] from the shots I missed. I am never satisfied if I know I can do better.
"My teammates did a great job of finding me and we share the ball. It wasn't just me. Everybody contributed and got involved. We had 20 or something assists off of 34 field goals and it's a really good day when we can put up numbers like that."
Lynx point guard Lindsay Whalen had eight points and 10 assists.
The Lynx broke the game open with a 15-3 run in the third quarter. Said center Taj McWilliams-Franklin, "We had a little more intensity. Tulsa played [Friday] night and it was an overtime game, so we were pretty sure their legs were going to be gone by the second half.
"We just buckled down and played through the whole play instead of stopping and giving up offensive rebounds and second shots."
Tulsa is on the Lynx's schedule four more times this year. "The games are going to be a lot harder," McWilliams-Franklin said. "As the season wears on people get used to playing with each other and get used to the system.
"Everything is new [in Tulsa] again, so it is a rebuilding opportunity and you have to give players a chance to get used to the system. We definitely know how tough they are. We have watched their games and we are sure it is going to get tougher and tougher to play against them as they get more comfortable with each other."
Kloppenburg is a first-year coach at Tulsa. He was an Indiana assistant the past four seasons.
The Lynx are off now until a two-game road trip next weekend. They play at Phoenix (2-5) on Friday, going for the WNBA record for best start, and at Seattle (1-6) on Sunday.\
* The Lynx shot 56.7 percent. This was the fifth game in a row, they have been at 50 percent or higher -- a WNBA record. They have shot at least 50 percent in eight of their nine victories.
* Jennifer Lacy had 15 points for Tulsa in the first half, none in the second.
* Going back to last season, the Lynx have won nine consecutive road games, the third longest streak in WNBA history. Los Angeles holds the record at 12 in 2000.
* The L.A. Sparks in 2001 and '03 were the only other teams to start 9-0. L.A. finished 28-4 in 2001 and won the championship and 24-10 in '03 and reached the finals.
* So who have the Shock played this season, that Kloppenburg has seen? Los Angeles, the team in second in the West behind the Lynx at 6-1. Tulsa had the Sparks beat until Kristi Toliver hit a three-pointer at the buzzer in L.A.
The other strong team that Tulsa has played is Chicago. The Sky (5-1) is tied for first in the East and Tulsa lost at their arena in overtime on Friday. The Shock's other losses were to San Antonio, Phoenix (twice), Washington and Seattle, all non-contenders currently..

Employers Holdings, Inc. Reports Second Quarter 2012 Earnings And Declares Third Quarter 2012 Dividend
Employers Holdings, Inc. ("EHI" or the "Company") (NYSE:EIG) today reported second quarter 2012 net income of $5.0 million or $0.16 per diluted share. Net income in the second quarter of 2011 was $8.3 million or $0.21 per diluted share. As expected, during the second quarter of 2012, we recorded a $2.2 million or $0.07 per diluted share addition to underwriting and other operating expense as a result of our prospective adoption of the Financial Accounting Standards Board's change in accounting methods for deferred acquisition costs (DAC). This change in accounting method, which became effective in 2012, alters the definition of acquisition costs which may be capitalized and lowered our reported net income as a result of having to expense certain costs that were previously capitalized. Adjusted for the change in DAC accounting, non-GAAP net income was $7.3 million or $0.23 per diluted share, an increase of $0.02 per share compared with last year's second quarter. We continue to estimate that our underwriting and other operating expenses in 2012 will increase further by approximately $2 million, in addition to the year-to-date expense of $5 million, as a result of the new DAC accounting, with approximately 16% of the total $7 million to be recorded in Q3 and the remaining 6% to be recorded in Q4.
Net income includes amortization of the deferred reinsurance gain related to the Loss Portfolio Transfer ("LPT") Agreement. Consolidated net income before the impact of the LPT deferred reinsurance gain (the Company's non-GAAP measure described below) was $1.2 million or $0.04 per diluted share in the second quarter of 2012 and $4.0 million or $0.10 per diluted share in the second quarter of 2011. Adjusted for the change in DAC accounting, net income before the impact of the LPT deferred reinsurance gain was $3.5 million or $0.11 per diluted share in the second quarter of 2012, which was $0.5 million or $0.01 per diluted share higher than the second quarter of 2011.

How Facebook Plans On Using Your Prescription Drug Purchase History, And How To Stop Them
"How Facebook Plans On Using Your Prescription Drug Purchase History, And How To Stop Them"
In its quest to sell more and more specifically targeted ads, Facebook has embarked on a new partnership with data-mining company Datalogix, which tracks the real effect of online ads on consumer behavior. Datalogix compiled data on the purchasing habits of 70 million American households from loyalty card memberships of more than 1,000 retailers, including drugstores. Although Facebook and Datalogix claim not to share individual data with one another, they will match up Facebook accounts with real life identities to determine whether a Facebook ad led that person to buy a product — and Facebook will use this data to show advertisers what kinds of ads are most effective.
As the Atlantic Wire points out, one of Datalogix's sources is the CVS ExtraCare card program, which catalogs regular drug purchases by members in order to reward them with discounts. Facebook is keeping the profiles anonymous, but the potential for abuse is significant.
Pharmaceutical industry giants spent about $1 billion on online advertisements in 2010, but are hobbled on social media by FDA guidelines that require the disclosure of all risks alongside benefits. Facebook helped Big Pharma satisfy this regulation by allowing drug companies to block comments on their Facebook pages and control their content. When Facebook eventually required them to open comments, many companies got rid of their pages — but according to some reports, Big Pharma representatives still kept tabs on Facebook groups and pages meant to offer support to people with health problems. This isn't a new strategy; even before Facebook existed, companies sent representatives to milk cancer support groups. But on Facebook, it's even easier to identify sick people vulnerable to certain types of marketing.
So Facebook's consumer information allows pharmaceutical companies to maximize their social media influence without being directly involved in the data collection. By studying regular drug purchasing habits, a company can draw conclusions about the types of ailments and demographic traits that make someone more susceptible to their advertisements — all without actually violating the FDA's advertising requirements.

The head of the International Monetary Fund (IMF) has repeated calls for China to let its currency rise, saying that a stronger yuan would improve the country's economy.
The comments by Dominique Strauss-Kahn came as Barack Obama, the US president, took a similar message to China's leaders in his first visit to the country since taking office.
Manufacturers in the US argue that Beijing gives its exporters an unfair price advantage by keeping the yuan undervalued.
"A stronger currency is part of the package of necessary reforms,'' Strauss-Kahn said in a speech at a finance conference in Beijing.
"Allowing the renminbi [Chinese yuan] and other Asian currencies to rise would help increase the purchasing power of households, raise the labour share of income and provide the right incentives to reorient investment."
The Chinese government broke the yuan's direct link with the dollar in mid-2005 and allowed it to rise by more than 20 per cent against the US currency over the next three years.
But that increase stopped in late 2008 as Beijing tried to help its exporters stay competitive amid declining demand. The yuan has held steady against the dollar since then.
At a separate news conference, a spokesman for the Chinese commerce ministry told reporters that Chinese exporters do not see trade improving and need a stable exchange rate.
Key reserve currency
Yao added that the impact of the exchange rate on China's trade surplus was "very small".
Despite the ongoing problems in the international monetary system, Strauss-Kahn said the US dollar would remain the key reserve currency "for some time".
China and Russia have expressed concern about the dollar's stability and called for creation of an alternative currency, possibly one managed by the IMF.
On the global economy, Strauss-Kahn warned that the recent recovery isuneven and said governments should avoid withdrawing stimulus measures toosoon.
"The biggest risk is a premature withdrawal of policy stimulus," he said.
"While it is prudent to plan for so-called 'exit strategies,' policy makers should keep supportive measures in place until a recovery is firmly established, and particularly until conditions are in place for unemployment to decline."

Fuel Your Dreamsbyhopelesslydevotedjps©
Sharp teeth on soft skin.
Gentle fingers graze hot flesh.
Light touches, slow caresses.
Words that make desire blossom deep in my belly.
"Remember this, and let it fuel your dreams;
Sleep, and dream of me."
Soft kisses, searching tongues.
Heavy breath, tensed up thighs.
Quiet whimpers, closed eyes.
Delicious torture, sweet aching.
You fuel my life, my desire.
Tonight, my dreams.

Nice erotic poem without the usual ooh Baby, Baby four letter words. Liked the last 2 lines, although I would not have separated them with a period. I thought they should flow together as one.

Connecticut Water Service, Inc. Reports 2010 And Fourth Quarter Earnings
Earnings Total $1.14 per Share
Regulated Water Activities Income Increases 10.7%
CLINTON, Conn., March 14, 2011 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- Connecticut Water Service, Inc. (Nasdaq:CTWS) announced net income of $9.8 million and earnings per basic average share (EPS) of $1.14 for 2010, compared to net income of $10.2 million and EPS of $1.20 for 2009. In 2009, the Company completed real estate transactions that generated revenues of $2.2 million and EPS of $0.17. No real estate transactions were completed in 2010.In 2010, total revenue grew to $72.8 million from $67.5 million in 2009, an increase of $5.3 million, or 8%. Total revenue includes all revenues generated by the Company's three business segments: Water Activities, Services and Rentals, and Real Estate. In 2010, income in the Water Activities segment, the Company's principal business, grew by approximately $840,000 to $8.7 million from $7.8 million in 2009, an increase of 10.7%. The gain was largely attributable to increased revenue through a rate increase of 13% that became effective in July 2010, and a 6% increase in water production due to hotter and drier weather in 2010 compared to 2009. The increased revenues were partially offset by a one-time pre-tax charge of approximately $790,000 associated with an organizational review principally at the Company's corporate headquarters in the third quarter. Additionally, O&M costs increased less than 3%, or approximately $920,000, to $33.1 million in 2010 due in part to a $1.0 million increase in labor, pension and post-retirement medical costs compared to 2009. In 2009, employee focus on capital projects including the implementation of an Enterprise Resource Planning computer system resulted in a temporary increase in capitalized labor. In 2010, labor expense was $12.1 million and was more in line with the 2008 labor expense of $11.9 million. There was also a decrease of $506,000 in medical expense due to a reduction in claims and administrative expense.

Hopefully someone will already know the answer to this one, I've had a search around the net but found nothing. Is there a way built in (or a simple way) to send a message/email every time a the Administrator account is logged in. I was thinking using netsend as part of the login script may be one way to do it but was wondering if there was anything better/purpose built out there at all.
Thanks in advance.

Article 4 of Directive 2009/28/EC on Renewable Energy requires Member States to submit national renewable energy Action Plans by 30 June 2010. These plans, to be prepared in accordance with the template published by the European Commission (EC), provide detailed roadmaps of how each Member State expects to reach its legally binding 2020 target for the share of renewable energy in their final energy consumption.
Member States have notified their national renewable energy action plans to the EC by 30 June 2010. Member States set out the sectoral targets, the technology mix they expect to use, the trajectory they will follow and the measures and reforms they will undertake to overcome the barriers to developing renewable energy.
Notice : Reports have been submitted in the language of the respective Member State, which is the sole authentic version. Translations into the English language are being provided for information purposes only. The EC does not guarantee the accuracy of the data or information provided in these translations, nor does it accept responsibility for any use made thereof.
The EC evaluated the plans, assessing their completeness and credibility. In addition, the Energy Research Centre of the Netherlands was contracted by the European Environment Agency to create an external database (ECN) and quantitative report of the reports.
Each Member State has published and notified the EC, six months before its national renewable energy action plan is due, a forecast document.
According to their forecast documents, ten Member States expect to exceed their national targets for renewable energy, and five expect to need to use the Directive's cooperation mechanisms and reach their target by developing some renewable energy in another Member State or a third country. Whilst Member States expect to use the cooperation mechanisms for only a small amount of energy (around 2-3 mtoe), the forecast total production of renewable energy would exceed the 20% target and reach 20.3%.

Djokovic, Steve Nash, and David Ortiz are probably the most famous athletes who follow paleo-ish diets.
And now, an actual question related to the topic at hand:
I'm just wondering, what about the athletes that don't even really appear healthy? Ex. I know weightlifters have a lot of muscle, and there must be some advantage to being so big (or they wouldn't be), but how does that gut help 'em out? Would a leaner person with the same muscle mass do as well?
Djokovic, Steve Nash, and David Ortiz are probably the most famous athletes who follow paleo-ish diets.
Yes, the real Dirk.
Liberty Classroom - a Libertarian spin on history
What really helps them is muscle, and having as much as they can. The more they eat, the easier it is to gain and maintain muscle, plus they recover faster. So I'm guessing they opt to overeat somewhat, without concerning themselves over having a gut.
If two weight lifters lift the same numbers the lighter athlete is considered the winner. So there could be times where dropping a bit of fat might break a tie in their favour, but clearly they prioritize strength above all else.
I'ts always interested me how weightlifters & "strongmen" nearly always look like the fat blokes at the bar.
Is it because all that superficial muscle really is just that and the real work is done by the core muscles?
Maybe the best test would be to take a SAD -- one who is NOT overly sensitive to gluten -- and replace every gram of grain with a gram of sweet potatoes or white rice. Replace every veggie oil gram with a CO or ghee gram. That should take care of most of the experimental controls. Check overall performance.
5'0" female, 43 years old. Started Primal October 31, 2011, at a skinny fat 111.5 lbs. Low weight: 99.5 lb on a fast. Current weight: skinny-fat 106.5 lbs because of sugar cheating.
MY PRIMAL: I (try to) follow by-the-book primal as advocated by Mark Sisson, except for whey powder and a bit of cream. I aim for 80-90 g carb/day and advocate a two-month strict adjustment for newbies. But everybody is different and other need to tweak Primal to their own needs.
I always thought weight lifters had to be heavy. How could someone small hold up so much weight? It's like being the base of a pyramid. You want a strong, hefty base to hold up that weight.
Female, 5'3", 49, Starting weight: 163lbs. Current weight: 135 (more or less).
I can squat 180lbs, press 72.5lbs and deadlift 185lbs
It also depends on their weight class. If someone is in the heaviest class they can eat with a lot more impunity.I always thought weight lifters had to be heavy. How could someone small hold up so much weight?
If someone is trying to not go over weight into the next class they'll need to be stricter with their diet.
*so it's possible to lift heavy things while being paleo/being smaller, but it's so much easier if you are not either of the former

It's no secret that Larry David is said to have a prickly personality — he's managed to parlay that reputation into HBO's longest-running series, Curb Your Enthusiasm, which hilariously parlays that persona to its "Heart-of-Darkness" extremes. Some interviewers use their profiles of him to either complain or marvel over his tetchiness.
David was polite, friendly even, when I interviewed him for TV Guide Magazine's current cover story about Curb Your Enthusiasm's premiere on the TV Guide Network, as well as the debut of a new bonus series, Curb: The Discussion, which offers celebrity panelists analyzing Larry's eccentric behavior. We met in his office in Santa Monica — there's a putting green in the hall leading to his office, and another inside it. He asked me if I'd mind if he swung a golf club during the interview, but only did it a couple of times before sitting and getting down to business.
His office has a faux-poster advertising his appearance in The Producers (Curb's Season 4 storyline), some baseball-stadium photos, and a gigantic print featuring a clown alongside the legend, "Jokes that injure others, waste time, hurt records, are never jokes. Let's think twice." (This piece of art has appeared, briefly, on the show.) And though he was resolute in his refusal to discuss plot points in Curb's upcoming eighth season (which will air on HBO in 2011), a few out-of-context plot points on the white board in his office read: "Fridge Cry," "Make-out + talk," "Dad dies" and "I lost a cabinet." Make of that what you will.
Here's an expanded version of the Q&A, in which he discusses the show's takes on racism, its role it rescuing a man from Death Row, Jerry Seinfeld's dissing Curb and how he dealt with a potentially queasy sex joke involving a minor:
TV Guide Magazine: Have you seen anything in the discussions that has surprised you?David: I'm surprised sometimes at how some of my actions are misinterpreted. There was one case where, it was an early episode with Ted [Danson] and Mary [Steenburgen], and we had just gone bowling with them, and I was enamored with Mary, but not in a sexual way, more in a platonic way. And everybody on the panel thought that I wanted to have an affair with her. But on no time on the show, except for the season when Cheryl said for a 10th anniversary present, I could have sex with someone, at no time was I ever a cheater in that sense. So I was surprised by that.
TV Guide Magazine: The Larry David of the show doesn't have a lot of tact. So the idea of discussing whether or not he's a good guy is funny in and of itself. But the show proves it does lend itself to that kind of debate. Did you imagine that people would spend that much time dissecting this guy's behavior?David: I don't know that this is going on in anyone's life [laughs]. It's going on on this show because there's 10 minutes to fill up, so we can't say that people are actually talking about it on that level. But no, of course not. There are some things about the show that I never realized were possible, such as people cringing, having to leave the room sometimes — I would hear, 'I can't watch it, I'm too uncomfortable.' Never in a zillion years did I think that that would happen.
What's uncomfortable is that people never tell one another the truth, in a way. The truth is so uncomfortable for people because we're not used to it. You can't have social intercourse by being truthful, it doesn't work, that's why we're all liars. But you can on TV, so that's why some people are uncomfortable.
TV Guide Magazine: Was it weird that your show was part of that Juan Catalan trial, where you got him off, potentially, death row? (Note: An episode of Curb was about Larry hiring a prostitute so he could use the carpool lane to get to an L.A. Dodgers game on time; outtakes shot at Dodger Stadium proved that a man accused of murder who said he was at Dodger Stadium at the time proved he was telling the truth; he was facing death row otherwise.)David: Oh, yeah, absolutely. The one thing — if I die, I've saved someone's life, which is probably the best thing I've ever done, which of course was inadvertent.
TV Guide Magazine: And with a prostitute.David: [Laughs] Right, exactly. That was an amazing story. I remember being in the room when his lawyer was watching the footage. The lawyer called us up with this client jailed for murder, and it was months after the fact that he finally mentioned the Dodger game, and he mentioned months after the fact that he mentioned there was a film crew there. So the lawyer called up to ask to look through the footage. What are the odds that you'll find this guy? He went into a room with a producer. It was only a half-hour or hour of footage, and I went in after about 10, 15 minutes and I was there for about two minutes, and all of a sudden, the lawyer jumps out of his chair and says, 'There he is!' That was something. He was only 10 feet from me. As I was walking up the aisle, luckily, the camera sort of shifted a little to the right and you saw him sitting.
TV Guide Magazine: It seems a little amazing that he would've forgotten that, given he was in dire need of an alibi.David: That's what I thought.
TV Guide Magazine: You had a little controversy this past season over the Jesus painting [in which Larry accidentally urinated on a religious portrait].David: Mm-hmm. First off, I didn't piss on the painting, OK? I'm not saying this to you — I'm saying to the critics of that episode. It wasn't that crude; I didn't piss on Jesus. Some splattered up, because of a drug I was taking, and it appeared as though he was crying. I didn't do it deliberately.
TV Guide Magazine: Does it surprise you when anyone takes offense at something you do?David: No. I'm not surprised people are offended at that, I'm frankly glad they were.
TV Guide Magazine: Because they should have been, or because that was their appropriate response to that situation?David: Anyone who watches the show, I don't think I offended one person who subscribes to HBO and watches Curb on a regular basis. The only people who were offended were people who would never watch the show, and of course just upon hearing about it would get offended. It's just a trigger reaction to get upset.
TV Guide Magazine: When you came up the idea, did you think it would press someone's buttons?David: [Long pause] I think the idea was sent in by someone. But I loved it, I thought it was really funny, and never considered who might be offended. It's just something I never would concern myself with.
TV Guide Magazine: In the [first-season] episode "The Doll," were you worried about when the girl hugs you with the water bottle [concealed in your pants]?David: Yeah, the girl's mother was there, and I talked to her and the mother seemed completely, completely fine with it. She said, 'She won't even know what you're talking about. Don't worry about it.' I was somewhat concerned, but the mother put me at ease.
TV Guide Magazine: On Curb: The Discussion, the panelists will say something like, 'I don't buy that,' like they're retroactively calling into question your judgment.David: Jerry did it. I was actually there, and afterwards, I said, 'No, no, no — that doll's head could not fit in my pocket! It was too big — I couldn't get that head in my pocket, it would've been bulging out; it would've been spotted in a second!' Yeah, I really need to be at those tapings to make some corrections.
TV Guide Magazine: Your character really has lived a lot in 70 episodes.David: [Laughs] I know. He's gone through quite a bit. It's amazing that all those things would happen to a person. I almost got killed last year — I was hanging off a building, grabbing onto someone's stomach to save my life. I almost drowned in the ocean a couple of seasons earlier. I only have one kidney (having donated the other to Richard Lewis).
TV Guide Magazine: I thought "Vehicular Fellatio" was one of the best episodes in the series. It was structured so well, with the jokes building upon one another. When you see that, it's hard to believe that anything was left to chance, even though the show is improvised.David: The story is exactly what the story was in the outline, so it wasn't like we got to the set and changed everything. We did exactly what was in the outline.
TV Guide Magazine: A certain line here or there could've thrown everything off.David: There are certain lines in the outline that we might want to get to because we think it is clever, but 95-99 percent of it is completely improvised. But once you know the story, you don't need a script. All you need is the story, really. And after a take, some of the producers will say, you might try this line there. But I don't like going into any scene with any lines in my head — it's much more fun to improvise.
TV Guide Magazine: You were at the Lakers playoff game [recently], in the same seats that you tripped [Shaquille O'Neal, in a Season 2 episode, transforming him into a villain for all Lakers fans] in on your show.David: Yes. You know what? Occasionally, I catch myself with my feet sticking out, and I think, 'You idiot.' Because you know, the refs come by that area. So I do have to be aware of it. Hence, the episode in the first place.
TV Guide Magazine: One of the things discussed on Curb: The Discussion is race. When you get into racial identity, do you have a line that you draw?David: Yes. Everybody has their own line. I do have a line, and I'm very sensitive to that line, and try to stay on it.
TV Guide Magazine: Can you describe the line, or is it like pornography, you know it when you see it?David: Yeah, exactly. That's exactly what it is.
TV Guide Magazine: While improvising scenes, have you or someone crossed the line?David: Of course, in filming, things are said, and as I'm in the scene, I'll say, 'We'll cut that line,' and then when the scene's over, we'll do some notes and say, 'That's over the line, we don't want that. Next time, don't say that.' That's just something you're aware of all the time when you're doing comedy.
TV Guide Magazine: My read of the final episode of last season is that you were so close to winning Cheryl back, and you kind of blew it.David: How do you know that I blew it?
TV Guide Magazine: The expression on her face at the end was, 'Why did I let this person talk me into letting him back into my life? I was so close to a clean break...'David: [Laughs] You don't think that scene could end with her back in the fold?
TV Guide Magazine: If he could've just shown a little bit of restraint there at the end.David: She did lie about the ring stain. [Which is why he threw the final temper tantrum that seemed to make her reconsider.]
TV Guide Magazine: Curb is now HBO's longest-running series.David: I heard that. It's remarkable.
TV Guide Magazine: Especially since we don't know from season-to-season — even you don't know — if you'll want to do another. How long did it take after wrapping season did you know you were up for another?David: It's a huge mountain to climb, to do a season. You always want to maintain the quality, and the notion that you can't maintain the quality makes me think I don't want to do it. So it takes me a while to sort of rev up the engine again, to think, 'OK, let's try this again. We can do this.'
TV Guide Magazine: There are a number of foreign shows that either bill themselves as or are clearly inspired by your show.David: I know there's one in Denmark that's an exact sort of copy.
TV Guide Magazine: There are also ones in Australia, England, Germany ...David: Really? Is that so?
TV Guide Magazine: Hong Kong, South Africa ... You can find out more at the Curb entry in Wikipedia.David: Really. I'll check it out.
TV Guide Magazine: Do you find that flattering? Or do you want a cut of their earnings?David: [It's been said that] 'Imitation is highest form of flattery.' But I don't know — I don't really feel flattered. But [long pause] here's the thing. It's done all the time. We do it here — we take successful shows. If they used the same stories, that would bother me. If it's copying style and tone, it's not the same as actually taking ideas, which would bother me.
TV Guide Magazine: One even reportedly uses music similar to yours.David: All right, maybe I'm a little flattered [laughs].

Well, would you just look at that? Go ahead and look, it's okay! I have now hit 22 pounds of weight loss, and I am excited about that!!!!!! Yeah, Go team God. So proud to be apart of God's team because there is no way I could do this alone. So I give him the praise and claim my health in the Fathers name. So, why don't you go out and be a blessing to someone today too!!!!
Well, I got up late this morning and still managed to eat breakfast. I have staid on track thus far and see it continuing throughout the day. I do feel more hungry more often today. I have noticed that when you are starting new eating habits, eating like you should and the things you should, that feeling hungry more often is normal. After a week or so of eating right it all levels out and you are satisfied more often than not. So, here's to praying for success!
It is time that I get back to doing what is healthy for me. I am out of school now, working steady hours and have time to get a routine. So, it is time to stop complaining about my weight and do something about it. Here I go. I did my tracking for the day and here I am telling you all that I am getting serious again, and that I will need a ton of help staying serious. I am starting out walking on the treadmill because I just got a very serious shin splint healed and I am working on my abs. I am trying to get back into the habit of eating right. All support is appreciated!
I just want to admit that I didn't fall off the wagon today; I jumped!!!!!!!!! I had pizza not much fruit and veggies, and yes I had a 32 ounce pop. Let me tell you it was awesome!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Now that it is out of my system I can get serious again. Yes, I do feel better after my dietary 2 year old fit!!!
I had a very nice afternoon with my family today, and got to visit with my mom. It is amazing how the little things make you feel good. I am of the opinion that a good solid relationship with your family is where all the happiness begins, well except all that begins with putting Christ first. That is all the wonder Chellism I have today. God bless.

Oct. 4 (Bloomberg) -- U.S. stocks rallied, driving the Standard & Poor's 500 Index up 4.1 percent in the final 50 minutes of trading, amid speculation European Union officials are examining how to recapitalize the region's banks.
Financial stocks in the Standard & Poor's 500 Index jumped 4.1 percent as a group, reversing a 2.9 percent drop. Bank of America Corp. and JPMorgan Chase & Co. added at least 4.1 percent. DuPont Co. and Hewlett-Packard Co. rallied more than 3.6 percent, pacing in companies most-tied to economic growth. AMR Corp. surged 21 percent as analysts said the parent of American Airlines is unlikely to file for bankruptcy.
The S&P 500 rose 2.3 percent to 1,123.95 at 4 p.m. New York time. The index plunged 2.2 percent earlier, to a level that would mark more than a 20 percent drop from an April peak, the threshold of a bear market. The Dow Jones Industrial Average lost 153.41 points, or 1.4 percent, to 10,808.71 today.
"The European crisis has been the market driver," Richard Sichel, who oversees $1.6 billion as chief investment officer at Philadelphia Trust Co., said in a phone interview. "If Europe comes out with something to kick the can down the road, it buys them more time. We learned in 2008 how important the financial system is and how a ripple effect can occur."
Stocks reversed losses in the final hour of trading after a report in the Financial Times quoted Olli Rehn, European commissioner for economic affairs, as saying there is an "increasingly shared view" that the region needs a coordinated approach to halt the sovereign debt crisis. Belgian Prime Minister Yves Leterme said a "bad bank" for troubled assets will be set up for Dexia SA and will have government guarantees.
Due for Rally
Stocks were due for a rally after falling more than 5 percent in the previous two sessions, Paul Zemsky, the New York- based head of asset allocation for ING Investment Management, said. His firm oversees $550 billion. The S&P 500 is trading for 12.2 times earnings in the last 12 months, close to the lowest since March 2009.
"The market doesn't go on a straight line either up or down," Zemsky said in a telephone interview. "There's no sign of recession in the U.S. and yet the market is pricing for one. So you're going to have days when things pop up and you're going to have bear market rallies."
About 7 percent of S&P 500 stocks began the day trading above their average price in the last 200 days, according to data compiled by Bloomberg. That matched the proportion following the Aug. 8 rout for the lowest level in 30 months. The full index began today 14.1 percent below its 200-day moving average, the biggest gap since April 30, 2009.
Bear Markets
Concern governments may be running out of tools to keep the global economic slowdown from worsening has left equities from Brazil to Hong Kong and Frankfurt in bear markets. The declines have confounded bullish investors who speculated the recovery that began in March 2009 would boost stocks for a third year.
Global stocks fell earlier after some officials hinted that bondholders may have to take bigger losses on Greek debt than previously negotiated. Deutsche Bank AG scrapped its profit forecast and announced 500 job cuts and further writedowns of Greek bond holdings amid a "significant and unabated slowdown in client activity" in the wake of Europe's debt crisis.
Equities briefly rose after Fed Chairman Bernanke said the central bank "will continue to closely monitor economic developments and is prepared to take further action as appropriate to promote a stronger economic recovery in a context of price stability. Bernanke made his remarks today in testimony to Congress's Joint Economic Committee in Washington.
Banks Surge
Banks, brokerages and insurers led the rally as the S&P 500 Financials Index jumped 6.5 percent between 3:18 p.m. and 4 p.m. New York time. The KBW Bank Index jumped 4.5 percent, after slumping 3.2 percent earlier. Bank of America added 4.2 percent to $5.76. JPMorgan rose 6.6 percent, the most in the Dow, to $30.26. Morgan Stanley, owner of the biggest retail brokerage, rose 12 percent, the largest gain in the S&P 500.
The Morgan Stanley Cyclical Index of companies most-tied to the economy rallied 4.3 percent. The Dow Jones Transportation Average, a proxy for the economy, added 4.4 percent. DuPont increased 4.5 percent to $40.23. Hewlett-Packard advanced 3.7 percent to $23.02.
The Bloomberg U.S. Airlines Index of 10 companies added 6.3 percent. AMR gained 21 percent to $2.39, after falling 33 percent yesterday on concern the company may file for bankruptcy. Fort Worth, Texas-based AMR reiterated yesterday that Chapter 11 protection ''is certainly not our goal or our preference'' as the third-largest U.S. airline seeks more productivity in union agreements.
Apple Slumps
Apple Inc. dropped 3.6 percent to $361.23. The company, in its first product unveiling since Steve Jobs resigned as chief executive officer, introduced an iPhone with a stronger processor to help it vie with Google Inc.'s Android. The update of Apple's best-selling product marks an early test for Tim Cook, CEO since Aug. 24, who hasn't yet shown he can match his predecessor's skills at product design and marketing.
''There is some disappointment that only one new iPhone has been announced," said Shaw Wu, an analyst at Birmingham, Alabama-based Sterne Agee.
