Yes.

Donyou? SOrry if you dont:(((
lol you go Sir!
everyday, i look in the mirror, "who's that sexy angel looking back at me!"...then i preen like a pretty peacock...and look for more admirers")
I am the antithesis of attractive.
Not particularly but I've been told I am enough times recently that there may be some credence to the theory.
Depends on my mood.
My looks have always gotten me to places with little effort (moreso then most). I am Tall and in great shape with thick long hair...I physically stick out in a room. At a closer glance, you would notice how clean and smoothe my skin is. How nice and full my lips are. How large and playful my eyes are...my smile, how charming it is...

I owe my parents everything for my looks...I had no say in them.

The shame of it is, my mind is often ignored...and I feel that is where my true strength lies.
It's funny, people see me and expect me to be a certain Way that I am not. I am much More like Thoreau, and a lot less then an Action Hero. I am very athletic, but I would rather read and write...then race and fight.
I would say yes.. not the conceited type where I think i'm the hottest thing alive but yes I believe i'm attractive.
No way in hell.
Aw hell no....
Nope I think I'm the ugliest thing alive.(:
Lol not really...maybe average... :/
Hmmph loll
I'm told I'm attractive. My physical appearance I would argue is not my strong suit. I refer to my three C's: Confident, competent, and complimenting. Do those; be sexy.
I love this Answer! Great Answer! Even If your looks are average, you attitude bumps you up to well above average! I always have these discussions with my friends, how attitude affects my perception of the individual.
It's so very true. People will remember the way that you make them feel. If you make you make them smile and laugh the whole time you're around them, they will associate you with feeling good.
no, but its ok.
Meh. I have my good days. Lol
It's all subjective and I can't assess myself on looks alone.
Tastes are personal and very much subjective.
NO, not at all.
What does that mean?
oh okie dokie artichoke.
I think i'm slightly above average.... but only slightly.

Only a few days before I'm off to Thailand. I'm excited, chaotic and nervous. I think it's been the 3th or 4th time I'm going to Thailand but still every time I'm worried. Worried I forget something or something happens. Of course nothing happens or goes wrong, but first I have to pack my backpack. Every time a challenge. Do I need warm clothes? Do I need to bring my hiking boots? Or is my toothbrush, tickets and passport enough. I always pack too much, but for the first time I'm going backpacking for a short time. Only 2 weeks, that means I don't need a lot and things I forget I can buy in Thailand. So this is my packinglist:
- Passport
- Drivers license (for hiring a scooter)
- Credit card
- ATM card
- Student ID
- Photocopy passport
- Moneybelt (to keep everything in one place)
- A small purse
- 1 long plants
- 1 sweater
- 1 long sleeve shirt
- 2 T-shirts
- 4 socks
- 4 sets of underwear
- 1 night shirt
- 1 short and 1 skirt
- 1 bikini
- 1 harem pants
- 2 tank tops
- Sunglasses
- Walking shoes
- Flip flops
- Comb
- Shampoo
- Toothbrush and toothpaste
- Deodorant
- Basic make-up
- Quick-dry towel
- First aid kit
- Sunscreen
- Deet bugspray
- Earplugs
- Iphone and charger
- Photocamera and charger
- SD-card for camera
- Lonely planet Thailand
- Book to read
- Notebook and pen
So what are you bringing when you go backpacking?
Only 42 days left before I leave for Thailand. This time it will be different. This time I will be travelling with my mom. You might think:"Your mom? Why?". I'll explain….
The big trip
In 2009 I had my first big trip. I traveled with my best friends for 8 months through Asia and 4 months through Western Australia. I loved it, I couldn't shut up about it and I knew I was infected with the travelbug for the rest of my life. I even got my mom affected a little bit, even though she had never travelled outside of Europe. She normally goes on a holiday either in our home country, Holland, or she travels with my dad to France or Austria. [caption id="attachment_1444" align="alignright" width="136"]
The pact
So when I got back from my big trip, we made a pact. If I would graduate for my bachelor marketing/communication, she would go with me to Thailand. She went with me to Istanbul a few years back. It was nothing she had ever seen, but she liked it and I was proud of her that she finally went flying for the first time. My dad, he would rather stay on the ground and to France or Austria again something he knew, something he loved.Maybe, my mom will turn into my grandma. My grandpa was a farmer and didn't like flying either. So after he died, on the age of 70 she started to travel the world. The US, Indonesia, South America. You name it, she went there. I really curious how my mom is going to react to a different world than ours. No brown bread, no cooked potatoes, and no 'hagelslag' or Dutch cheese. To me Thailand is a country of an amazing culture, amazing food andbeautiful nature and beautiful people. Here I come Thailand!
Have you ever backpacked with a family member? And what was it like?
There's that word again "security". A reason why a lot of people are afraid to travel around the world. Not knowing where your are going to sleep or eat the next day. You know what? That's what I love about travelling. Never knowing where you might end up, enjoying the most beautiful places in the world and the most awesome people. So you're ready for the next step? This what you have to do:
- Figure out where you want to go: Do you already know where you want to go or is it still unknown. It's very important to know what your budget is. For my trip in Asia and Australia (8 months Asia and 4 months Australia) I saved for about one and a half year. So keep in mind how comfortable you want to travel and where do you want to go and try to save up as much as possible. A good travel source is Lonely Planet. Borrow their guides at your local library (or buy them) or take a look at their website. Lonely Planet is pretty much considered the bible for travelers :)
- Visa's: Trust me, this is the hard part. Some visa's are really easy to get but others are like nightmares, like in Australia last year, or in Russia or China. Trust me, i've been there! haha, but once you got them you already halfway! If you are doing a around the world trip, it's best to only apply for a visa for the first two countries, but check before how hard and how long it takes to get them.
- Vaccination and other medicine: Two months befor you leave it's important to get the right vaccination for the destination you are going to go. So let your doctor know or go to a special travel clinic to get medicine (like malaria pills) and vaccination.
- Flights: Last but not least is booking your flight to your destination. There is no way of knowing when you have to book your flight. Some people do it 3 months before others 6 months before their trip. Take a look at different airlines and I always find Skyscanner a good tool for finding flights. They even use price alerts. That means when your selected route, gets a lower or higher price, you get an email about it.
So how do you prepare for your trip?
What is the worst that happened during your travels?
Queenstown oh yeah baby! Every tourist that goes to New Zealand, also goes to Queenstown. You would think it's really big, but it isn't. It's just an little town where the most tourist come to party and the locals to enjoy the amazing ski area called "The Remarkables". The town was actually named after a queen Victoria because of it's beauty. A town fit for a Queen. I don't know if Queen Victoria was beautiful, but Queenstown was definitely amazing. Ok, it was overcrowded with tourists but that was exactly nice for a change. For the last couple of weeks I felt sometimes like the only tourist in New Zealand. Crazy right? The first day I went for a walk to the skyline. You could also take the Gondola, but I decided to walk. Much cheaper and more time to make beautiful pictures. It took me 2 hours to get the top. I was totally exhausted when I finally reached the top, but it was totally worth it. It was one of the most amazing views I've ever seen. The sky was blue so you could see as far as the eye could see. I took like a million pictures while I tried to catch my breath. Look at that amazing view..... On the top you have some tacky tourist shops and overpriced coffee, so I didn't stay too long. I took another route down. It took me along a old waterpipe. One of the first of this area. It was a beautiful way down and in the afternoon I walked along Lake Wakatipu with the amazing mountains in the background. I now knew why everyone stayed here, it's such a magical place. One of a kind.....
After windy Surat Bay, I drove along the coast to Te Anau. Where famous sounds where. You know...the Milford Sound and Doubtful sound. Te Anau was a really beautiful place with a beautiful lake and the sounds in the background. It was a little town, that mostly popular was in summer because now it was almost desserted. But no worries, without the tourists it was even more beautiful :-)
The next day I headed to Milford Sound. 120 km to the Sound and 120 km back. The highway to Milford sound dates back to the 1930's but I was happy it gave me the opportunity to go there. I also wanted to go to Doubtful Sound but that was almost impossible (unless you have lots of money ;).
On the way to Milford Sound[/caption] The Lonely Planet warned me about the big buses headed to Milford Sound. They told me to avoid the mornings and late afternoons. But ofcourse I didn't listen. In Te Anau it was pretty much desserted, so Milford Sound would be the same, right? I was totally wrong!! Lots of big buses, especially chinese. Yeah, chinese are pretty much everywhere. But in the end, I did a pretty good job of avoiding them. Cheers for me. :-) And it was a pretty amazing view. I didn't do a boattrip to see the sounds upclose but the drive was well worh it. Alrighty and now back to Te Anau. Another 120 km's and after that heading to the party and ski town called: QUEENSTOWN!.....
Before I left Mt. Cook, I took one last look at the amazing view. Staying longer was no option, because there was so much more to see in the South. Early in the morning, when my carwindows were still frozen, I decided to drive more south, towards Oamaru. I drove along a few beautiful lakes that New Zealand has to offer: Lake Aviemore, Lake Benmore and Lake Waitiki.
Around noon I arrived in Oamaru. Best described as a sweet, little town. I rang the doorbell at the hostel, that was situated just off the main street. A woman in nightgown opened the door:"Love, come on in! It's a bit of a mess (you might say that!) but I decided last minute to go to London, to see the olympics and my son, who lives in London". She decided to close the hostel for 2 weeks. "Oh, and you have to take this". She gave me a list of all the backpackers that made reservation in this hostel but were going to the Empire Hotel backpackers.
Before she send me off for my mission, she gave me some tips about what I should definitely should see here in Oamaru:" You have to go to the penguins tonight, just after sundown, just follow the smell, oh and don't forget to go the farmersmarket, oh and you have to see this en that....." A lovely women but a minor case of ADHD.
I drove with my list to the Empire Hotel Backpackers where I also was staying. It took me quit a while to find the hostel. You wouldn't think it would be so hard because it was on the main street. When I arrived, I was one of the few in the hostel, but that didn't matter. It was a beautiful old hostel (from 1867) with a lot of history and I enjoyed the little town and the nice weather. At night, I went to look for some penguins. I smelled the smell, but no penguins....
This morning I looked out off the window. It was mostly grey, but on the bright side....it didn't rain. Yeah, just another day in the fall. Falls here in the Netherlands are mostly like that. You are lucky when it doesn't rain and really, really lucky when you see some sunshine. But the weather doesn't get me down, or at least i'm trying, but this make me also realise that I was really lucky in New Zealand.
Even in the winter I got lots of sun. On the westcoast it was raining, buy hey...when doesn't it not rain on the westcoast, right? But it's not only the sun that made me have a fantastic time. It's also the amazing people i've met during my 9 month stay in New Zealand, but what are now the most awesome things about New Zealand:
Relaxed lifestyle: That's not only the best thing in New Zealand, but the best thing when you travel. The only thing is what you think about is what are you going to do today and where are you going to sleep tonight. That's most awesome feeling in the world and that's why I love travelling so much. No worries about money or things that you have to do. Just living your life and enjoy :-)
The charm of the traffic: Ok New Zealand isn't most biggest country and certaintly doesn't have the biggest roads, but that doesn't matter. It makes people more nice, they are taking an effort. It's normal for trucks to stop along the road to pass you by. Everyone actually stops when you want to cross a road. Yeah, I know! Unbelievable, right?
The stunning scenery: I travelled quit a bit in Asia (8 months) and in Australia (4 months) and off course Europe, where I'm from, but there's nothing like the scenery in New Zealand. It's the most amazing scenery I've ever seen. Lakes, Mountains, Forrest and you gotta love all the desserted beaches. Can also be quit anoying, though. You have to stop like every 10 minutes, because of the change of landscape and the amazing view, but it's all worth it.
Pub and cafe culture: New Zealand has just like Australia a big pub and cafe culture. A good barista isn't hard to find. So do you have a business meeting or just meeting a friend. The barrista is bet place to go and on friday everyone heads to the pub. Have one of the most amazing wines of New Zealand or one of the different beers New Zealand has to offer. Always a good way socialize with your colleagues or your best mates! :-D
Toilets everywhere: Oke, so if the last 4 reasons didn't convince you. This one definetly will. You probably know the feeling, you're in the middle of nowhere and have to pee. No worries, even at the most desserted places there's a toilet and always super clean and free of charge. One time I was doing one of the great walks, the Abel Tasman track. I found myself on a totally desserted beach. Just me and the birds. I almost felt like Robinson Crusoe totally on a desserted island. So there was like nothing there, accept a toilet hidden in the bush. What more do you want, right? ;-)
UPDATE: Meanwhile I'm already back in Holland and started my first week back at school but I'll still want to share my stories and adventures around the south island of New Zealand. Hope you enjoy it! :-)
The first thing I did the next morning was look out of the window. It was totally blue! After I had my breakfast and dressed, I walked outside. It was magical with the amazing blue sky and the high mountains of the Southern Alps. Totally different than yesterday, when it was raining and cloudy and you couldn't see a thing.
I packed all my things because my plan was to drive to Lake Tekapo today, but first I had to get a icescraper because it was quit impossible to get the ice of my windows (I tried it with carton, but the layer was so thick that, that even was impossible). I found one, but I had to be careful because even the streets were frozen (I almost fell becaue of the ice!!). I drove the whole day. Ok, normally it only takes a few hours to drive to Lake Tekapo but that's impossible, because every 10 minutes you see some amazing nature and everytime it's totally different.
So in the end I had way to much photo's :-) Around 4 I arrived at Lake Tekapo and I was not the only one, there was a whole bus load of backpackers. Yeah, lake Tekapo was pretty touristic but still amazing with the blue-green colors and the southern alps on the background. I enjoyed the beautiful sunset and after that I went straight inside, because it started to get really cold, it was almost freezing. I choose a nice comfy chair near the fire and drank a nice warm tea. One of my roommates just arrived.
He didn't had a lot of money left and there was no ATM arround and he still had to pay the hostel for the night. I would've offered him some money, but I also didn't have a lot of money left. His plan was to maybe play some gitar, and sit in the middle of the room, to see if people would give some money for him. After 5 minutes, he was already back....the hostel gave him a free night! How nice....gotta love NZ!
Back to the hostel, back to where I started. Every backpacker knows the feeling of a hostel. A place to meet people, a place to gather information for your next trip, a place to party but also a place that you can call home.
But how come people think like those and those are mostly the people that often haven't been in a hostel. Ok, I'll be honest there are few dirty ones outthere. But hey, what about normal hotelrooms. They are sometimes even worse than hostels. When looking for a hostel you can find some amazing hostels outthere. My favourite is still Margaret River Backpackers (WA, Australia), where I stayed for 2 months. I loved the big terrace, where you could just enjoy your breakfast in the sun but a hostel is not only the facilities. It's all about the people. Not only the people you meet there but also the people who run the place.
I had that in Margaret River, but also in Tagong. A small village in southwest China, near the border of Tibet. If you even can call it a village. It was more like a monastery with a few houses around it…..;-) When I arrived in Tagong, the hostel owner of the hostel was already waiting for me at the square. Her English was pretty bad, but sometimes you don't need any words. We went to the hostel but before I brought my backpack to the room it was first time for a cup of tea and something sweet. After that she showed me the room, which I shared with 7 other people. It was an amazing room, It almost looked like I was sleeping in a monastery, I loved it.
And now I arrived in "The Brown Kiwi". Supposedly the best hostel of Auckland. The hostelowners are two men and a bit crazy from time to time. Yesterday 4 girls from Germany arrived and he showed them the room :"And of course we'll be there to tuck you in at night and read a bedtime story". Hilarisch!
What is your best hostel / backpackers experience?

Arc of Yates struggling to rebuild
Penn Yan, N.Y. -- The cleanup from severe flooding in Yates County has proven more challenging than previously thought for some groups.
The Arc of Yates, which serves about 160 people with developmental disabilities, has more than $500,000 in damages, but it cant get any state aid because its a nonprofit organization and doesnt qualify for grants designed for businesses and homeowners.
Our true, full and complete services to families have certainly been compromised, said Katie Ring, the centers executive director. This is where we have to begin again.
The center has had to temporarily cut jobs and care programs. It could be a year before the center reopens.
Laurie Snyder, whose daughter has worked at the Arc for 25 years, said its been a major disruption for her and her friends.
She knows what it means to so many of her friends to not have this building to come to, Snyder said. I can't imagine how different all of our lives would be. This has been another extension of our family, this building and the services they provide.
The center is collecting donations through its website. For more information, click here.

Jeanine, I am sorry your are busy, but it appears you have abandoned the souls whose memorials you created, and are ignoring requests for transfer.
The memorial you created for my g-g gma is inaccurate and incomplete. (She was not buried at the cemetery that you have listed, even though her name is on the stone.)

Is the plaque you posted at the original poor farm cemetery site, or at Graceland Cemetery?
Could you have GPS coordinates added to the cemetery page, or send them to me, so that others can find the site? Thanks!

Flowers and tokens on memorials
Please do not leave crosses and any other religious tokens on memorials. You don't know how insulting it is to see your religion forced on an innocent person.

Memorial Oaks photo request
You requested a photo of a grave in Memorial Oaks cemetery. I went there today and asked them for the location of the grave, but they said they couldn't give me the location because I'm not family.
I would be more than happy to shoot the grave if you would be kind enough to call them and ask them the location of the grave.

How come this doesn't have any examples? Shouldn't there have been any when the page was
07:00:18 PM Dec 19th 2011
It can't have any examples now, since it's a fanspeak page.
11:21:50 AM Jul 10th 2012
This in spite of the fact that there are
character sheets that list this as a trope, and not just anime characters. This character type is seen in various media, and yet this page is passed off as "Oh, no it's not a trope; just some
Gratuitous Japanese
that the weeaboos pass around". I really don't understand...
11:24:48 AM Jul 10th 2012
Because it is far too close to
Sugar and Ice Personality
, almost indistinguishable. And the character sheets
be using it as a trope. Feel free to remove.
03:27:52 AM Dec 13th 2012
I don't see how they're "indistinguishable". A Kuudere need not be shy at all; they can be snarky, cutting, aggressive, and so on, in their "Ice" side. A Dandere simply
clams up
when they don't feel comfortable, which I wouldn't call "Icy" by any means.

What if this was someone who just didn't talk, at all, when she first meets people. Those around her start to get the notion she's a Cute Mute. Then, once she gets to know these people, she starts talking. Would that be considered a Dandere?

Can we add some examples? The trope's not identical to
Shrinking Violet
by any means.

Please do. There are many examples of dandere especially in video games.
11:23:09 AM Jul 10th 2012
Can we pretty please get someone to talk to the people who locked this page and ask if they can consider revising it? To call this just an anime fanspeak term is asinine!

Is this trope actually necessary? Everything in it is either contained in Kuudere or Shrinking Violet.
12:12:59 AM Mar 24th 2010
I'm pretty sure it isn't. There's some muff in the archived discussion about how there was some discussion on the forum that it's needed because it's a Japanese term, but I disagree vehemently. It's pretty much the same as those aforementioned tropes.
02:50:42 AM Jun 14th 2010
I think there is a distinction between a kuudere and a dandere. A dandere is generally antisocial and a loner who displays little emotion but is eventually encouraged to open up. A kuudere is distant and aloof but really has emotions they rarely let out. The difference is the kuudere is more prone to snark and cynicism, and will express her negative feelings. The dandere has problem showing any emotion at all and will not snark. Also the dandere will finally act more like a normal person when they open up without reservation, but a kuudere will generally be embarrassed when encouraged to show genuine emotion beyond what they're used to.
I say keep it and expand it with more examples.
12:16:46 PM Jun 24th 2010
I see that our
page contains subtypes; might this work better as a
subtype? This seems way more specific than the other -dere types.
I think we might have a hard time sorting examples out from the generic
Emotionless Girl

Having firsthand experience with a dandere, I think I can elaborate.
Unlike a kuudere, a dandere actually replies when talked to. Of course, in some cases, the kuudere will reply but will add negative comments to what he/she says. Unlike the Shrinking Violet as well, a dandere does not show his/her shyness when being talked to. If you talk to him/her in a straight manner, her or she will respond in a normal, straight manner. Also different from the Emotionless Girl, because the dandere does show emotion, just to the right people. Closer maybe to Emotion Repressed.
A dandere will be more or less a normal person, but, will not talk unless spoken to/required to. He/she will avoid talking because of his/her shyness, but if need be, he/she will speak. Also, a dandere tends to feel more power in numbers. If he/she is with a group that he/she is comfortable with, then the shyness factor of said dandere will very likely decrease if another unfamiliar person is introduced at that time.
The closest example I can think of is Nagisa, from Clannad. Yeah, she did open up to Tomoya at the beginning, but he's pretty much the only person she opened up to that she didn't really have to in the first place (the rest were only to get more Drama Club members). This is further reinforced in the Visual Novel wherein if you choose another girl's route she will do her drama club thing all by herself.
And... editing article :)

[1879] MDM2 SNP-309 Promoter Polymorphism, MDM2 and p53 Expression in Pancreatic Ductal Adenocarcinoma
Xiaoping Zhou, Jonathan Rock, Megan E McNally, Mark Bloomston, Weiqiang Zhao, Gerard Lozanski, Wendy L Frankel. Ohio State Universcity, Columbus, OH
Background: The mouse double minute 2 homolog (MDM2) is the primary regulator of p53. A functional single nucleotide polymorphism (SNP) of the MDM2 promoter (309 T>G) enhances the Sp1 binding to MDM2 promoter and MDM2 expression resulting in attenuation of p53. Small molecules antagonizing the MDM2-p53 interaction have been shown to promote p53-dependent tumor regression in vitro. The MDM2 SNP-309 has been recently associated with the development and prognosis of a variety of tumors. We hypothesized that the MDM2 SNP-309 is associated with increased risk of pancreatic ductal adenocarcinoma (PDAC) and worse outcome.
Design: Genotyping of MDM2 SNP-309 was performed on genomic DNA extracted from benign lymph node tissue of 189 PDAC by PCR amplification flanking the corresponding promoter region followed by temperature gradient capillary electrophoresis and direct sequencing. Tissue microarrays of PDAC were constructed and immunohistochemically stained for MDM2 and p53. Expression intensity was scored as 0 (absent), 1+ (modest) or 2+ (high). In addition, FISH analysis for MDM2 amplification was done in 20 PDAC (15 with modest or high expression). We evaluated the association between MDM2 SNP-309 and the risk of PDAC using Cramer's V Test (with 100 controls). We also investigated the relationships between MDM2 SNP-309 genotype, MDM2 and p53 expression and tumor stage and survival time.
Results: The MDM2 SNP-309 genotypes of PDAC were statistically different from those of controls (P = 0.041). The frequency of the G allele in PDAC was significantly higher than that in controls (P = 0.002).
|PDAC (n = 189)
|Controls (n = 100)
|31 (16.3%)
|12 (12%)
|97 (51.3%)
|40 (40%)
|61 (32.1%)

As we grow older, a number of unavoidable sad truths smack us square in the face. Many of them are probably things we swore would never happen to us -- and hey, wouldn't you know it, they did. One of these is the deterioration of a group of friends either due to distance, change in interests, or lack of convenience. In terms of mortality and the fragility of life they're not so dire, but there's still something very defeating about losing touch with people that, at one point, we had very substantial bonds with.

SUGAR HILL, Ga.May 4 2012 Private security guard, cops faulted. Gun carrier says his rights were violated in Sugar Hill.
A Forsyth County man is suing two police officers and a private security guard for arresting and jailing him for wearing a holstered gun while he exercised at Sugar Hills Gary Pirkle Park.
According to a federal lawsuit, private security Officer Reid Hanna told Christopher Proescher that Sugar Hill city ordinance prohibited firearms in public parks.
And Proescher told Hanna he was wrong. Proescher said in an interview Wednesday he had checked with the city a year ago concerning Georgias law that allows gun owners with permits to carry their weapons in parks.
Proescher, who had a permit to carry a gun, said in the suit filed last week that he was exercising his constitutional rights when he put on his athletic shoes and strapped on a Smith and Wesson M&P about noon April 20 for a regular trip to the walking path three miles from his house.
Im an open carry advocate, said Proescher, who works in a Cumming gun shop. I believe [openly carried guns] will never become accepted unless people do it.http://privateofficernews.wordpress.com/2012/05/04/ga-man-sues-cops-guard-over-arrest-for-open-carry-www-privateofficer-com/

The defendant sounds like a tool. Why would you give responding leo's a hard time and show disrepect for authority. I bet if he cooperated he wouldnt have spent the night in jail.
Honestly after reading the full story i would have arrested him as he was providing suspicous evidence. Being abusive to police while armed is generally not a good tactic.
Looks like a dirtbag trolling for exactly what happened in order to get a lawsuit going.
"Gun control: The theory that a woman found dead in an alley, raped and strangled with her panty hose, is somehow morally superior to a woman explaining to police how her attacker got that fatal bullet wound." L. Neil Smith
The problem with being stupid is you cannot simply decide to stop doing dumb things...
Here we go again. The guy isn't doing anything illegal but he is forced to explain himself just because he's carrying. What is even sadder, is we have pro 2a members upset with him because he told them to go piss up a rope. If he had been exercising unarmed would the security guard have bothered with him? Why do you guys think it is OK for people to be hassled when they aren't doing anything wrong? The only time police stop me when I'm driving is when I'm doing something wrong. They don't just pull me over because I'm driving. "OMG that guys got a car we better stop him, or OMG that guys got a baseball bat we better stop him." What is the flippin difference?
the only issue i see is, is the park public or a private park available to the public? why is a private security guard patrolling a public park? he checked into the fact that he was legal to carry in a public park, okay, that seems good, but if the park is private property available to the public and being patrolled by private security, then they do have the right to restrict carry. but if the park he was in was a public park, then why is a private security guard patrolling it in the first place? another thing is, he did seem a little evasive in the regards to his birthdate. seems like some of the facts are not being told or have been deleted.

It's actually quite simple. The burden is on the government to know the law and to properly enforce it. It's not the burden of the citizen to look innocent or necessarily be pleasant about being wrongfully detained. Much like the first amendment, free exercise of freedoms by others may annoy me or I might feel that they are silly in the way they do it. However, it's not my call, nor is it the call of random badge carriers to infringe on those rights if exercised lawfully. A man has every right to open carry in jurisdictions that allow it. Whether you or I agree isn't really the point. Whether he flunked the "attitude test" shouldn't really matter on points of constitutional law. The LEO's (or Security guard's) feelings are not covered in the bill of rights, IIRC.
The point is, those responsible for enforcing the law have know what is legal and they have get away from the "I don't don't like it, so you must be disturbing the peace" mindset.
I already know the ire that my post will draw, but I'm going to post any. I am not however going to be drawn into arguing or defending my view this time.
As axe pointed out perhaps we do not have all the details, but having a private security it would seem that it may have been a private park. If it was then the owners certainly have the right to set the rules the same as any property owner. We all have rights but my rights stop were they infringe on yours. I have my right to carry my weapons all the way to your home, but I have no right to enter your home with them without your permission.
Now if in fact this was a public park and you are fully within your rights to carry yes the guard was in the wrong. That being said his arguing with said guard and the police officers did nothing for him but land him in jail. And other people viewing the incident is more than likely viewing the gun owner in a bad light. However if he complied with the order to leave he could have still filed his lawsuits and fought for his rights. And by winning his lawsuits I am sure the same mistake would not happen again at that park.
Again I would love for gun owners to appear as intelligent, law abiding group. That is how we can gain the support we need. Like it or not each state can change the laws that affect gun ownership in many ways. There are people and groups that we cannot win over because their minds are already made up. And when we they are able show us in a bad light furthers their agenda. Our freedom of speech just took a large step in the wrong direction, mainly made possible by the actions of the occupy movement doing things the wrong way.
Do I think that government oversteps their boundaries hell yes I do. Federal, state, and local, but the law is the law. We do need to be working to change those laws. We need to gain support to help change those laws, but we must obey those laws until they are changed. We are not going to get that support by acting like an a hole.
In other threads I see people comparing to nazi Germany. Remember how Hitler gained so much power is he picked out a group of people and falsely made the the enemy. Then he united the remainder of the people against this false enemy.

Loving Dogs In Toms River, N.J.
By editor
When a doglover gets to an age when she can't care for a dog anymore, it can be a huge loss.
Since 2009, Simon, a Golden Retriever and his owner, Pat, have been visiting Alice — who is 94 years old and legally blind — in her home near Toms River.
For years, Alice enjoyed the companionship of a dog. Now because of health problems, she cannot. So every week she looks forward to her visits with Pat and Simon, who are part of the Caregiver Canines program.
Our volunteers — human and canine — visit the elderly and those with Alzheimer's disease.
Lynette Whiteman is Executive Director of Caregiver Volunteers of Central Jersey. She listens to WNYC.

Ponder, Farris, drummer Nate Wedan, keyboardist Michael Talley and bassist Wade Cofer have certainly lived up to those expectations. They even recently recorded a Daytrotter session while on tour in support of Shakedown.
"It is great to be playing live," says Ponder. "I think that is the thing that has kept the band together for so long. It is difficult to transfer what we do live to a recording studio, but I think that is a challenge for many bands. I am proud of what we can do on stage."
Perhaps all this good fortune means Somebody's Darling is about to hit the big time. Bring it on, says Ponder, along with any criticism of selling out.
Somebody's Darling; Goodnight Ned; Bravo, Max!
Saturday, October 6, at Dada.
"We will gladly go on tour with the likes of Zac Brown. Let me go on the record and hope that some of his people will read this. We are ready for it."

Description: An instant family classic, Benji is shot mostly from the a dog's-eye view , adding even more characterization to a title character well-played by canine veteran Higgins. Benji is an intelligent homeless mutt adopted by a loving family; when the kids are kidnapped, it's the little dog to the rescue in the best tradition of bigger doggie heroes like Rin Tin Tin and Lassie. Believe it or not, Higgins really acts; his captivating performance and the simple, straightforward telling of the story makes for all-around family fun. A sequel didn't fare as well, but the original Benji is still a furry favorite.~ Don Kaye, All Movie Guide

now that I think about it they may also look better if they stuck out a tiny bit past the black sections. And maybe you could go whole hog and add little metal rails to either side (the actual "rail" part of the railroad)
and if i may ask, why did you choose Rabak as one of the main hubs? it's not a very large or influential city. cairo or nairboi would make more sense.

Sultan, i can only view one of these images to understand what you are getting at. The last one comes up Forbidden 403
An Indian railway stations has no relevance for this map, but i will keep it in mind for the Aisa rail map when i do that later.

Night Strike wrote:I kind of like the feel of the rails how they are right now. ...
Can do!I think the KNG and MYA I line should connect to the green box rather than the blue. That one stands out the most as looking slightly out of place, but maybe the others could be adjusted too.
H and J have similar colors. I am able to tell them apart without much difficulty, but some may have issues.
It seems like the two circles at the TUN station should switch since E is an inland rail but B is outer.
Done.In the Station Names legend at the top left, I think the colors need to be rotated because the light red and dark red are next to each other and look similar. I'd put the green in the center if you want to keep the same colors.
The little g in the top right legend is cut off.
Are you going to add more symbols around the map? Right now the elephant and butterfly look crowded compared to the open background around the map.

My boss has asked me to design a report that will export to excel the following data: student name, form class, % attendance in school, %attendance in maths, number of times late to maths. He wants to be able to see this data on a weekly basis in an excel spreadsheet to see which students are regularly missing or late in our subject so he can see its affect on their progress.
How can I get SIMS to do this for all the students in the school but just our subject (maths)? All I am getting is SIMS crashing and eventually producing attendance for each student separately in all subjects.

Will Social Selling work for your Sales Team?
As people rely more and more on the internet and social media for information it's important that businesses leverage these tools in their sales processes. Sales teams need to learn and understand just how much Social Selling can help improve their pipelines and ultimately their sales figures.
Did you know that 90% of buyers start their buying process online and more than 70% of those will look at more than 4 pieces of information before making their buying decision? When you consider how many buying processes can now be completed online without ever speaking to anyone, it makes it essential that your sales teams become involved in the buyer journey early.
So just how does social selling work?
Social media means that your sales team can now research, identify on profile prospects and connect with them. They can provide those prospects with information about you and your company. A bit of research can reveal who the the key individuals are within an organisation, what their problems are and even how they connect with their own customers. All this can be done long before they pick up the phone and talk to anyone meaning that the first conversation can be much more effective.
But social selling is not just about identifying and connecting with prospects and it's definitely not about spamming peoples inboxes with sales messages. It's about using the social channels to find out what interests your prospective clients, what their problems are and providing useful and relevant information to them – building your brand and reputation before your sales team speak to them.
A sales call can last for a few minutes, or sometimes it's as little as seconds and then the content is lost. If you share your content with your prospects online, it's there in the digital world, available for them to find at the very start of their buying process.
When you add in to that the fact that you can measure how your content is being shared or discussed, it allows you to target your future content more effectively. In addition, your content being talked about and shared by others can widen your reach, and in turn bring new 'followers' to your company.
If you want to be in the mind of the buyer at the start of their buying process, you've got to be on their radar. This can be achieved using a combination of traditional sales techniques along with social selling activities.
WSI eMarketing runs a Social Selling programme in which your sales teams will learn how to:
• Building a buyer centric social profile
• Map your buyer personas
• Find content that interests your buyer
• Apply best practices around content volume
• Share content to push your buyer off their status quo
• Campaign and connect with buyers
• Understand trigger event selling and which triggers to listen for
• Build a sphere of influence selling
• Implement a 30 to 60 minute daily social selling routine
• Leverage aggregation tools for content sharing
• Implement social listening
• Use the LinkedIn mobile app
• Implement competitive intelligence gathering
and much much more…
Interested in learning more ? Sign up to our one hour webinar on March 25th explaining how the social selling programme works. You will leave with implementable hints and tips as well as a better understanding of the programme.
Alternatively, if you want to speak to someone about using social selling techniques in your business or the programme and how it could help your sales team, contact us.
Is your sales team already using social selling? Are you finding it effective? Share your thoughts in the comment box.

Lucy artwork unveiled
Cinema News
The UK artwork for Luc Besson's Lucy is now online. The film, starring Scarlett Johannson and Morgan Freeman, is in UK cinemas on 22nd August and is already doing good business in the US.
From La Femme Nikita and The Professional to The Fifth Element, writer/director Luc Besson has created some of the toughest, most memorable female action heroes in cinematic history. Now, Besson directs Scarlett Johansson in Lucy, an action-thriller that tracks a woman accidentally caught in a dark deal who turns the tables on her captors and transforms into a merciless warrior evolved beyond human logic.
Lucy also stars Academy Award® winner Morgan Freeman and is produced by Virginie Besson-Silla for EuropaCorp.
