Neuroticism is a fundamental personality trait in the study of psychology characterized by anxiety, fear, moodiness, worry, envy, frustration, jealousy, and loneliness.[1][2] Individuals who score high on neuroticism are more likely than the average to experience such feelings as anxiety, anger, envy, guilt, and depressed mood.[3] They respond more poorly to stressors, are more likely to interpret ordinary situations as threatening, and minor frustrations as hopelessly difficult. They are often self-conscious and shy, and they may have trouble controlling urges and delaying gratification. Neuroticism is a prospective risk factor for most "common mental disorders",[4] such as depression, phobia, panic disorder, other anxiety disorders, and substance use disorder—a cluster of symptoms that traditionally has been called neuroses.[4][5][6][7][8]
Emotional stability[edit]
At the opposite end of the spectrum, individuals who score low in neuroticism are more emotionally stable and less reactive to stress. They tend to be calm, even-tempered, and less likely to feel tense or rattled. Although they are low in negative emotion, they are not necessarily high on positive emotion. Being high on positive emotion is an element of the independent trait of extraversion. Neurotic extraverts, for example, would experience high levels of both positive and negative emotional states, a kind of "emotional roller coaster". Individuals who score low on neuroticism (particularly those who are also high on extraversion) generally report more happiness and satisfaction with their lives.[9]
Like other personality traits, neuroticism is typically viewed as a continuous dimension rather than distinct. Neuroticism test scores approximate a normal distribution given a large enough sample of people.
Extent of neuroticism is generally assessed using self-report measures, although peer-reports and third-party observation can also be used. Self-report measures are either lexical[1] or based on statements.[10] Deciding which measure of either type to use in research is determined by an assessment of psychometric properties and the time and space constraints of the study being undertaken.
Lexical measures use individual adjectives that reflect neurotic traits, such as anxiety, envy, jealously, moodiness, and are very space and time efficient for research purposes. Goldberg (1992)[11] developed a 20-word measure as part of his 100-word Big Five markers. Saucier (1994)[12] developed a briefer 8-word measure as part of his 40-word mini-markers. Thompson (2008) [1] systematically revised these measures to develop the International English Mini-Markers which has superior validity and reliability in populations both within and outside North America. Internal consistency reliability of the International English Mini-Markers for the Neuroticism (emotional stability) measure for native English-speakers is reported as .84, that for non-native English-speakers is .77.[1]
Statement measures tend to comprise more words, and hence consume more research instrument space, than lexical measures. Respondents are asked the extent to which they, for example, Remain calm under pressure, or Have frequent mood swings.[10] While some statement-based measures of neuroticism have similarly acceptable psychometric properties in North American populations to lexical measures, their generally emic development makes them less suited to use in other populations.[13] For instance, statements in colloquial North American English like Seldom feel blue and Am often down in the dumps are sometimes hard for non-native English-speakers to understand.
Neuroticism has also been studied from the perspective of Gray's biopsychological theory of personality, using a scale that measures personality along two dimensions: the Behavioural Inhibition System (BIS) and the Behavioural Activation System (BAS).[14][15] The BIS is thought to be related to sensitivity to punishment as well as avoidance motivation, while the BAS is thought to be related to sensitivity to reward as well as approach motivation. Neuroticism has been found to be positively correlated with the BIS scale, and negatively correlated with the BAS scale.[16][17]
Research has found that a wide range of clinical mental disorders are associated with elevated levels of neuroticism compared to levels in the general population.[4][18][19] Disorders associated with elevated neuroticism include mood disorders, such as depression and bipolar disorder, anxiety disorders, eating disorders, schizophrenia and schizoaffective disorder, dissociative identity disorder, and hypochondriasis. Mood disorders tend to have a much larger association with neuroticism than most other disorders.[4] Personality disorders as listed in DSM-IV in general tend to be associated with elevated neuroticism.[4][20] A meta-analysis found that Borderline, Paranoid, Schizotypal, Avoidant, and Dependent Personality disorders were each associated with substantial levels of neuroticism (correlations ranging from .28 to .49). The remaining personality disorders had either modest positive or non-significant (in the case of narcissistic and histrionic) associations with neuroticism.
Environmental influences[edit]
About half of the individual differences in neuroticism can be explained by nongenetic factors,[4][21] including positive and negative life events,[19][22] long-term difficulties,[2] and changes in life circumstances,[2] which can lead to persistent changes in neuroticism.[2][19] High neuroticism is also predictive for negative life experiences.[2] Many theorists distinguish state fluctuations in neuroticism (<6 months),[2] such as after most positive or negative life experiences,[19] or due to symptoms of depression or anxiety,[4][19] from persistent changes in the setpoint of neuroticism or true personality change.[2] This is known as the "Mixed Model of Change in Neuroticism",[19][22] which was proposed by Hans Ormel. Experience driven changes in the setpoint of neuroticism can persist over a decade.[2]
Neuroticism appears to be related to physiological differences in the brain. Hans Eysenck theorized that neuroticism is a function of activity in the limbic system, and his research suggests that people who score highly on measures of neuroticism have a more reactive sympathetic nervous system, and are more sensitive to environmental stimulation.[23] Behavioral genetics researchers have found that a significant portion of the variability on measures of neuroticism can be attributed to genetic factors.[21]
A study with positron emission tomography has found that healthy subjects that score high on the NEO PI-R neuroticism dimension tend to have high altanserin binding in the frontolimbic region of the brain—an indication that these subjects tend to have more of the 5-HT2A receptor in that location.[24] Another study has found that healthy subjects with a high neuroticism score tend to have higher DASB binding in the thalamus; DASB is a ligand that binds to the serotonin transporter protein.[25]
Another neuroimaging study using magnetic resonance imaging to measure brain volume found that the brain volume was negatively correlated to NEO PI-R neuroticism when correcting for possible effects of intracranial volume, sex, and age.[26]
Other studies have associated neuroticism with genetic variations, e.g. with 5-HTTLPR—a polymorphism in the serotonin transporter gene.[27] However, not all studies find such an association.[28] A genome-wide association study (GWA study) has associated single-nucleotide polymorphisms in the MDGA2 gene with neuroticism,[29] however the effect sizes were small. Another GWA study gave some evidence that the rs362584 polymorphism in the SNAP25 gene was associated with neuroticism.[30]
A 2008 experiment investigated the neurophysiological responses to uncertainty (which individuals high in neuroticism find aversive) using an event-related potential framework. Participants received positive, negative and uncertain feedback on a task while the feedback-related negativity (FRN), an evoked potential that peaks approximately 250 ms after the receipt of feedback information, was measured. For all participants, it was found that a larger FRN occurred after negative feedback than after positive feedback. However, for participants high on neuroticism, uncertain feedback resulted in a larger neural response than did negative feedback.[31]
A 2009 study has found that higher neuroticism is associated with greater loss of brain volume with increasing age.[32]
Mental-noise hypothesis[edit]
Studies have found that the mean reaction times will not differ between individuals high in neuroticism and those low in neuroticism, but that there is considerably more trial-to-trial variability in performance reflected in reaction time standard deviations. In other words, on some trials neurotic individuals are faster than average, and on others they are slower than average. It has been suggested that this variability reflects noise in the individual's information processing systems or instability of basic cognitive operations (such as regulation processes), and further that this noise originates from two sources: mental preoccupations and reactivity processes.[33]
Flehmig et al. (2007) studied mental noise in terms of everyday behaviours using the Cognitive Failures Questionnaire, which is a self-report measure of the frequency of slips and lapses of attention. A 'slip' is an error by commission, and a 'lapse' is an error by omission. This scale was correlated with two well-known measures of neuroticism, the BIS/BAS scale and the Eysenck Personality Questionnaire. Results indicated that the CFQ-UA (Cognitive Failures Questionnaire- Unintended Activation) subscale was most strongly correlated with neuroticism (r = .40)[clarification needed] and explained the most variance (16%) compared to overall CFQ scores which only explained 7%. The authors interpret these findings as suggesting that mental noise is "highly specific in nature" as it is related most strongly to attention slips triggered endogenously by associative memory. In other words, this may suggest that mental noise is mostly task-irrelevant cognitions such as worries and preoccupations.[34]
Sex differences[edit]
The results of one study has found that, on average, women score moderately higher than men on neuroticism. This study examined sex differences in the 'Big Five' personality traits across 55 nations. It found that across the 55 nations studied, the most pronounced difference was in neuroticism.[35] This study found that: In 49 of the 55 nations studied, women scored higher in neuroticism than men. In no country did men report significantly higher neuroticism than women. In Botswana and Indonesia, men scored slightly higher than women. Sex differences in neuroticism within nations ranged from very small to quite large - large in 17 and moderate in 29. Differences were negligible in Bangladesh, Tanzania, Ethiopia, Greece, Japan, Botswana and Indonesia. Large differences were recorded in Israel and Morocco. African and Asian/South Asian world regions tended to have smaller sex differences in personality overall than did western world regions (Europe, and North and South America). Women tended to record similar levels of neuroticism across the regions covered in the study. The men's scores differed widely; men in the Western regions scored lower on neuroticism compared to men in African and Asian world regions. In countries with higher levels of human development, the men recorded significantly lower levels of neuroticism.

Neuroticism, along with other personality traits, has been mapped across states in the USA. People in eastern states such as New York, New Jersey, West Virginia, and Mississippi tend to score high on neuroticism, whereas people in many western states, such as Utah, Colorado, South Dakota, Oregon, and Arizona score lower on average. People in states that are higher in neuroticism also tend to have higher rates of heart disease and lower life expectancy.[36]
Evolutionary psychology[edit]
One of the theories regarding evolutionary approaches to depression focuses on neuroticism. A moderate amount of neuroticism may provide benefits, such as increased drive and productivity, due to greater sensitivity to negative outcomes. Too much, however, may reduce fitness by producing, for example, recurring depressions. Thus, evolution will select for an optimal amount and most people will have neuroticism near this optimum. However, because neuroticism likely has a normal distribution in the population, a minority will be highly neurotic.[37]
Core self-evaluations[edit]
Neuroticism has been included as one of the four dimensions that comprise core self-evaluations, one's fundamental appraisal of oneself, along with locus of control, self-efficacy, and self-esteem.[38] The concept of core self-evaluations was first examined by Judge, Locke, and Durham (1997),[38] and since found evidence to suggest these have the ability to predict several work outcomes, specifically, job satisfaction and job performance.[38][39][40][41][42]
The effect of yoga on neuroticism[edit]
According to a research done by Acharya Balkrishna and his team, Neuroticism, or negative affectivity, can influence a person's approach to life. This study examined levels of neuroticism in 249 patients with illnesses known to be related to the mental state. All of them were given a six-day intensive yoga program. Patients showed a decrease in neuroticism measured by the PGI Health Questionnaire. The reduction was maximum for (a) those with ages between 36 and 51 years, (b) females, (c) patients with at least 17 years of education, and (d) those who were self-employed. The results show the importance of socio-demographic factors in neuroticism levels and in programs intended to reduce neuroticism. Hence, yoga is a useful intervention to reduce traits of neuroticism, with variations in the degree of change based on social factors.[43]

The size was to big, so I had to shrink it quite a bit. It may be hard to read, but each red line represents a contradiction, each grey or white line represents a bit of scripture in the bible, grey lines are in the new testament and white ones are in the old testament.

What are you talking about? This isn't OC. Are you proposing that the poster is incorrect? I'm sure that the advisory board of project reason would love for you to point out an error in one of their works.

Montgomery, AL United States
The Auburn University at Montgomery Wellness Center is a facility dedicated to fitness, wellness, intramural activities and human performance research.
As the AUM campus has grown significantly and the number of on-campus residents increased, the administration recognized the need for a comprehensive facility to support a healthy lifestyle for its community.
AUM desired the new facility make a statement to students and the community affirming its commitment to lifelong wellness. Initial schematic design massing and plans grew out of a "bend and stretch" diagram as a metaphor for exercise and wellness, with much openness and transparency to promote facility usage. It includes a gymnasium for intramural basketball, volleyball, badminton and similar sports, as well as an indoor pool with fitness and social areas, multiple exercise areas with state-of-the-art equipment, a 25' climbing wall, running track, stretching areas and multi-purpose rooms. An outdoor patio area at the south end includes a spa and bocce court.
The facility also includes an academic component with two classrooms, faculty offices and two human performance laboratories.
The project is pursuing LEED Silver certification. The building utilizes daylight harvesting with automated lighting controls that monitor occupancy and daylighting to minimize the need for artificial lighting. The HVAC system includes super-efficient chillers with electro-magnetic bearings, minimizing maintenance and energy usage while providing durability. Roof drains collect rainwater that is directed to a bio-swale on the east side of the building that dissipates much of the water on site and minimizes discharges to the city storm drainage system.

The king room is amazing, huge, nicely done, much bigger than those at Wynn. I ordered dinner to the room on our first night, and got a bad food poisoning -- even days later I was not well. The manager of the in room dining refunded the price of the entre only (so cheap really, since we spent there quite a lot), but the hotel management would refuse even that. In addition, your could hear the music from the outdoor club all day and night (!), even on the 26th floor, so have earplugs with you. The music was on all the time and the hotel was packed with trash crowd. We couldn't believe it. I would neither stay at Encore again, nor at Wynn.Review by: Xenia2011

The Encore is a bit ostentatious but that's just how things are in Vegas. The important thing is that it's clean, comfortable, and pretty close to luxurious. Service is uniformly good, although when things get busy you might have to wait a bit to talk to the concierge/front desk. Every room is a suite, and if they're all like mine they are roomy and well appointed. My view from the 27th floor was great, and there are another 30 or so floors above that one (I think they charge a little more for rooms in the top half of the hotel. Two very minor complaints: there's no DVD player, and if you want a refrigerator you need to have them bring one to your room (the one that's built in only has space for the minibar stock). Depending on your deal you may get free wifi - it's the fastest & most reliable I've used in any hotel. Really nice. Even if you get a good deal on your room (I did), expect to pay a little more for everything else on the premises. Food and drinks are generally a little expensive, and you can find tables with lower minimum bets elsewhere on the strip. But if you're looking for the cheapest place in Vegas, you probably shouldn't be at the Encore anyway (check out Wild Bill's!).Review by: donthiton12

The Encore is first class all the way. Every room is a suite with a grand view. The staff was amazingly attentive from the moment we arrived until we left. Amazing restaurants (Sinatra is the BEST), amenities, and casino. You can walk right over to the Wynn for their not-to-be-missed buffet. The hotel is on the north end of the strip so it is much more quiet, and you can hop on the tram to go south to the hustle and bustle. We would recommend the Encore to everyone, and we will definitely stay there again.Review by: RoadGoo

The hotel itself is beautiful. The rooms are modern and elegant -- I loved them! The gym is not really up to par without free weights however. Otherwise a very pleasant experience. Plus a healthy menu with vegan/vegetarian options.Review by: Vegan boy

The Encore Hotel's physical environment was "immaculate"! However, the customer service and communication between the tangible or intangible benefits of the Hotel's property was poorly coordinated. Also, helpful comments or 'good deed' offers felt like a "I got you" experience...the attitude was 'not to worry, we will take what we want from you'... making for an unsatisfactory overall experience. )O: Would recommend with caution!Review by: H and M

Encore and Wynn are the best hotels in town! Excellent service, very clean, beautiful pools and modern decor. It's at the end of the strip, but you got a great mall across the street. I guess is a good exercise to walk the strip or just get a cab. Buffet and restaurants are the best. Rooms are beautiful. I will totally recomend it.Review by: Ma B

The lobby was elegant and their motif is red and butterflies. I know that sounds cheesy weird but it works. The rooms were roomy, nice, comfortable, & clean. The bed and pillows were also very comfy. The towels, at first seemed like typical hotel towels but they were the most absorbent I have ever experienced in a hotel, or ever. They have smoking and non-smoking floors and a whole bunch of great restaurants. They also have this great man-made waterfall/lake thing that's pretty cool which you can see from a few of the restaurants. Overall, I would stay at the Encore again.Review by: Las Vegas Encore Reviewer

THERE IS A RECURRING THEME THROUGHOUT THE HOTEL OF BUTTERFLIES.THE MOSAIC BUTTERFLIES INLAID ON THE FLOOR ARE THE BEST.THE DECOR OF THE GARDENS AS WELL IS EXCITING AND ENTERTAINING. EACH RESTAURANT HAS ITS SPECIAL MOTIF AND COLOR AND ITS DIFFERENT MENUS.THE SHOW LE REVE WAS EXCELLENT..I RECOMMEND IT HIGHLY. ..RED IS THE PREVAILING COLOR SO THE BEIGE IN OTHER AREAS WAS WELCOMED.WE USED THE SOCIETY DINING AREA MOST,I LIKED THE BLACK AND WHITE FOR A CHANGE. COMPLIMENTARY SLIPPERS IN THE BATHROOMS MAY BE A GOOD ADDITION...Review by: LAZIZA

We usually stay at other hotels and have been extremely happy with those resorts. Wife wanted to try this resort so we decided to give it a shot. Huge disappointment!!! We prepaid for a suite with king size bed but when we got to the hotel, the staff at the check in counter tried to stifle us for a regular room with queen size bed. Their excuse was that they don't have the room we paid for available and instead of offering to upgrade us, they were trying to downgrade our reservation to a lower quality room. We asked to speak to a manager and after a few minutes of talking with him, all of sudden they had a room available that matched our original reservation. Strange, huh? We also did not get any housekeeping the next day and after being out all day we came back to an unmade room. Probably first time this has ever happened to me as far back as I can remember. Everything in this resort is super expensive and their resort fees amount to $24/day which is on top of all the other taxes you already pay for the room. Drinks at the bars were super expensive, the food is very good at their restaurants but again super expensive. Luckily we were not on a budget! During check out I told the front desk that our room was not made and that was not very convenient. The best they could do is offer to fill out a comment card. One positive thing is the night life. It seemed to attract huge crowds to their night clubs on Saturday night.Review by: Gladiator

The ultimate Taurus rental... just in case
While the debate rages on around whether or not returning the Taurus name to Ford's lineup will do anything to help improve sales of this large sedan, we've had our fun imagining what different versions Ford could produce. First there was the Taurus Heritage Edition that actually won over a lot of readers with its nod to nostalgia, and then there was our first post on a possible resurrection of the SHO model.
While we're of the mind that the return of the Taurus will improve sales, or at least not hurt them, there are some who argue that the Taurus is, was and always will be a rental car. For them, Galvin, the artist who rendered our first two Taurus models, has created this, the ultimate Taurus rental car for the new millennium, complete with many square feet of unpainted black plastic, anonymous wheel covers and an offset Blue Oval that lets everyone know the driver is a little off, as well. While we wouldn't go so far as to say the Five-Hundred/Taurus is our favorite large sedan in the segment, we wish it well in 2008 and beyond and hope its future doesn't come to this.

Complete self supporting home next to Mangrove Reserve. Home is Solar powered, water is collected rain water.
Unplug from your hectic life and smell the ocean, waves lapping the shore, listen to the sounds of the Mangrove reserve; the birds, geckos, and the wind blowing through the coconut trees. Watch Iguana's take in the afternoon sun, Herons patiently stand in the water and suddenly snap for lunch, march of the blue crabs at dusk, a squadron of Pelicans glide along the shoreline, skimming the treetops....
Lazily swing in one of 3 hammocks while listening to a rain burst, or to catch a breeze during a sunny afternoon. Keep a camera handy. The Osprey is quick.
The bird watching is most unique. In the house is 'The Birds of Belize', but keep it handy while on the deck.
Beautiful house on tip of island. Watch the sunset from the front deck, or the sunrise from the back deck. Open floor plan, washroom (toilet/sink), lots of airflow from all 11 windows. House is tucked next to a mangrove reserve, so lots of bird and wildlife activity. It's 15 feet up, and catches every breeze.
Sit on the Crow's Nest and enjoy the unobstructed 360 view, lay in a hammock with a Belikin Beer or sit in the bar stools on the deck with dining rail and enjoy dinner by sunset.
Make a fresh rum drink with real banana's and pineapple in the hand crank blender while listening to Jimmy Buffet or Caribbean music on the XM satellite radio... if you want to gloat to your friend, upload photos via the wifi showing them your views....
There is a caretaker who will meet you on the island (get there by plane or water taxi) and take you to the house and get you settled in. A local phone is provided to call caretaker during your stay.
House has a full kitchen and there are several grocery stores on the island.
The house is on the south point of the island, the village is 1.4 miles away, which is 10-15 minutes by bicycle (a pair comes with the house for use by guests). From the crow's nest, you can see the village. It's not beachfront, but not much is on Caye Caulker (The Split on the north tip of the island is the public beach area), the shoreline at this part of the island is protected Mangrove shoreline.
To say this home is one of the most unique houses with breathtaking views on the island would be completely accurate.
As part of the community, a percentage of all proceeds goes to the Caye Caulker Ocean Academy, the island's only High School
Calendar is maintained off line and the house is only booked for 14 days a month. Please email for availability.
This is the place to experience the Caye Caulker motto; 'Go Slow'
Keywords: honeymoon, house, island view, sunset view, sunrise view, beach, Belize, Caye Caulker, deck, crows nest, spacious, private, snorkeling, romantic
Wife and I enjoy traveling around the world. Europe is always a must. In the states, we do road trips in our '67 VW Bus and hike with our Red Heeler.
The Owner purchased this house in 2010
First visited Caye Caulker in 2006 and kept going back. Discovered the only things more beautiful than the scenery of Caye Caulker are the people of Caye Caulker. I designed this house based on the architecture of native islander homes and it was built last year.
Besides the sunsets, I really enjoy watching the wildlife. the variety of birds, (Herons, Ospreys, Roseate Spoonbill and more). This house is right next to the Mangrove Reserve, so the wildlife is abundant. My first morning in the house, I woke up to an Iguana on a branch looking in the window at me!
This house is perfect for someone who is adventurous and wants to get unplugged but not too far away from the comforts of home,. Great snorkeling and the beauty of Belize.
Use the basic telescope for stargazing, reference the book 'Birds of Belize' to identify the birds that you see from the deck. Make use of the small but growing personal library including 'Belize: Reefs, Rain Forests, and Mayan Ruins'
Every morning my wife and I liked to drink coffee on the veranda and watch the birds fish for breakfast off the side of the house when the water was up, watch the ocean crabs, schools of fish, iguanas... we saw something new every day.
I like to lay in one of the hammocks with a rum/fresh juice drink and read, but I find holding the book up to much work!

The Consumer Electronics Show, which will kick off once again early next year in Las Vegas, Nevada, is the biggest showcase of upcoming TV's, home theaters and other pieces of home and travel technology. And each year, a number of companies take part and attract thousands of attendees. However, the upcoming 2012 show will mark a significant change for one company in particular -- Microsoft.
The Men In Black haven't always seen the greatest of times when it comes to movies. The first one was excellent for sure...but the second, not so much. But they've had even less success in video games, with the last release, Alien Escape, barely getting any attention on the GameCube and PS2. But hopefully Activision will turn that around next year, as the company is working on a new game in the series to tie in with the upcoming Men In Black III film, which releases next summer.

10-year-olds sharing explicit images reported to police
From The Christian Institute: Children as young as ten are sharing explicit images over social media and on mobile phones, according to Freedom of Information requests. A BBC investigation found a sharp increase in the number of schools reporting cases of 'sexting' to police. Dorset Police dealt with 66 incidents of sexting in the past year, nearly twice as many as the previous year. Some of the cases Dorset Safe Schools and Communities Team dealt with included ten-year-olds sharing...read more

Independent Games Festival chairman raising funds for cancer expenses
Independent Games Festival chairman Brandon Boyer has helped make many wonderful indie games find their way into your hands. Now Brandon could use your help.
He fought off cancer last year, but his health insurance company Humana denied his claims and he was left with over $100,000 in medical expenses to deal with. Brandon took to crowd funding site GoFundMe (where you can read the full details of Humana's blood boiling reasons for denying the claim) to raise the funds for his medical bills, and he's pretty close to reaching his target goal.
You can donate directly, or you can also go the route of the latest Humble Bundle from Devolver Digital. The bundle will last until March 16, and includes a mix of games and movies from the Devolver brand. You can pay what you want as always, but paying over $10 will unlock the full bundle. The games include Cosmic DJ, Duke Nukem 3D: Megaton Edition, Shadow Warrior Classic Redux, Marc Ecko's Getting UP, and Defense Technica. The movies are Good Game, Austin High, The Poisoning, One Couch at a Time, and Mars.
Proceeds from the Devolver Double Debut bundle will go towards Brandon's cancer funds, and The Film Collaborative.

Uttoxeter churches offer a refuge for the isolated
Posted: March 20, 2014|
CHURCH officials are offering a helping hand to the lonely and isolated with a new social event.
The Uttoxeter Churches Together Communicate events will take place on the fourth Saturday of every month, with the first session running tomorrow from 10am to 2.30pm at Uttoxeter Methodist Church.
Refreshments, all-day breakfasts and games will be available, as well as the chance to get out and make friends.
Methodist minister Gordon Gresswell told the Post and Times the sessions would be open to all age groups.
He said: "Loneliness affects us all in different ways.
"I've only been here for around six months but have met a lot of people who need company at weekends, from widowers to younger people.
"Weekends are a very difficult time for those who are isolated and have little social interaction, particularly if there families live elsewhere.
"We want those people to come out and share with others to come out of their shells so we can show them they're not alone in the world and people really do care about them.
"Whether you just want a cup of tea, a few slices of toast or a full English, you're very welcome at Communicate."
East Staffordshire Borough Council has invested £800 in grant money to help the event get off the ground.
And Rev Gresswell is keen to point out Communicate has no religious connotations.
He said: "There won't be any prayers and hymns. We're just opening our doors to people in the hope they can feel wanted and loved.
"I know a lady in her 50s whose husband died very suddenly.
"She told me that she would get through the week at work but, come Friday, she'd go home and wouldn't talk to anyone until Monday.
"She's started coming to some services and said they've really helped her make friends and socialise more, which is so vital.
"In the long term, we'll be looking to get local schools involved, maybe as part of the Duke of Edinburgh scheme, so pupils can come and lend a friendly ear."
Volunteers to help run Communicate are being sought and anyone wanting further information is asked to call Rev Gresswell on 01889 562994 or Julie Green on 01889 565086.

cute :)
They are comfortable and the sizing is perfect. I was only able to find calf length ones which sucks but I'm sure the variety depends on the store. I almost never can find a XS but the S fit sufficiently well. I only wanted them for wearing in the house. The price was awesome. I bought 6 pairs and I've washed them maybe 10 times and they are just as elastic and black as the day I bought them.
I have 4 pairs of leggings and I think they are super comfortable!!! They are also so inexpensive !! The only down side is that they don't last for a long time, I mean I've had mines for about 2 years and they have holes now. I guess that's a long time.
Everyone should buy some and they come in so many colors !
A pair of lavender lace leggings I bought for $5 at F21 has been in constant rotation in my wardrobe for these past few summer months. They are so fashionable and fresh and adorable, and have yet to break/gain holes/etc!
I love printed leggings. The way they hug your body just make you instantly think "Gosh I look good!" Every girl should own a pair. Throw on a pair of your sexiest heels & dance.
dandy chic
i love forever 21 leggings! so cheap and comfy!!
i absolutely LOVE these mid-thigh leggings they are extra comfy && cute =)

HORRIBLE - the only word I can use to describe this recipe. I followed the recipe exactly and it was not good. Too much of a garlic taste, too thick. Maybe I did something wrong. Definately will remove this from my recipe box.
This was good but not great! I had to add salt and pepper because it was a little bland. I think next time a may have to try a different recipe.
I've been looking for this recipe and it tasted delicious and very easy to prepare.

On Friday, CBS picked up CSI: Cyber, the newest installment in the long-lasting Crime Scene Investigation franchise. Unlike its predecessors, CSI: Cyber isn't limited to solving crimes in just one region of the United States, instead it will take on the nefarious 'under-world' of the Internet. So that should be plenty terrifying to CBS's technology-weary older skewing audience.
CSI: Cyber is the first new CSI spin-off in nearly a decade, New York debuted in 2004. And while all three series thrived for many years thereafter, the 2013-2014 TV season was the first TV season for CBS with only one hour of CSI on its primetime schedule following the cancellation of CSI: Miami in 2012 and CSI: New York in 2013.
The newest CSI will star Patricia Arquette (procedural fans may remember her from Medium) as Avery Ryan, a Special Agent at the FBI's Cyber Crime Division in Quantico VA. CBS tested the waters a couple weeks ago when she first appeared in a backdoor pilot episode of CSI: Crime Scene Investigation ("Kitty" 14×21) where she helped the team solve their mystery of the week.
Having caught the aforementioned episode, here's my first impression of Agent Avery Ryan and the cyber world she works in:
- Finally a female lead! And she's snarky and confident.
- But clearly she's got some issues or secrets from her past because she actually goaded a suspect into cutting her. To be fair every TV doctor, agent, law officer has issues, that's how every crime becomes personal.
- If "I Can See For Miles" by The Who is CSI: Cyber's theme song, I'm cool with that.
- Basically it's Lie to Me, but with Internet crimes and a woman.
- I hope they re-work some of the CGI visual elements for the actual series because using the standard magic-school bus cam in cyberspace just looks like a cheesy-Tron knock-off.
- Node is a silly name for suspects or perpetrators.
- Internet crimes is an interesting and a less-tapped well for story lines, I mean it is kind of terrifying how much shady stuff really does exist online.
- I'm sure there's all sorts of real life stories to pull from, I mean in this episode alone they dealt with identity theft, sex sites, online privacy, and extortion.
- Even though Quantico is her HQ, the lack of location in the title makes me think she'll be doing a lot of traveling, so I wouldn't be surprised if CBS is already planning crossover events with its many other procedurals.
Even though I still tune into CSI every week, I think that's more out of character investment than an actual interest in crime-solving procedurals, so I'm not sure if CSI: Cyber is something I'll actually want to watch on a regular basis. I'm certainly willing to give it a shot though. Rumor has it, the series will be marked for the mid-season.
Did you catch the backdoor pilot of CSI: Cyber? Do you think Internet crimes and Patricia Arquette can reinvigorate the CSI franchise?

Kirkland's Reports Second Quarter Results
"Recent economic tumult may further impact consumer sentiment and spending in the back half, but we are financially well-positioned to continue our controlled growth and weather an uncertain economic environment. Our Board's decision to commence a stock repurchase program and the agreement to renew our $50 million credit facility signal our confidence in the future of Kirkland's."
Stock Repurchase Authorization of $40 Million
The Board of Directors has authorized a stock repurchase plan providing for the purchase in the aggregate of up to $40 million of the Company's outstanding common stock over the next 18 months. The shares may be repurchased from time to time in open market or negotiated transactions, and the amount and timing of those purchases will be based on a variety of factors, including stock acquisition price, regulatory limitations and other market and economic factors. The stock repurchase program does not require the Company to repurchase any specific number of shares, and the Company may terminate the repurchase program at any time. As of July 30, 2011, the Company had 20.2 million common shares outstanding.
$50 Million Senior Secured Credit FacilityThe Company also announced that it has agreed to renew its $50 million senior secured credit facility led by Bank of America, N.A., as administrative agent. The facility will mature in August 2016 and will bear interest at an annual rate equal to LIBOR plus a margin ranging from 175 to 225 basis points with no LIBOR floor and no financial maintenance covenants. Fiscal 2011 Outlook At quarter end, the Company had 294 stores compared with 300 at the beginning of 2011 and 286 at the end of the prior-year period. For fiscal 2011, the Company now expects to open approximately 15-20 net new stores, representing square footage growth of 9% to 12%. New store opening activity will be heavily weighted toward the second half of the year. Store closings will typically coincide with replacement store openings.

Feb. 12 (Bloomberg) -- Europe's rescue fund may provide 35 billion euros ($46 billion) to help Greece buy back bonds held by euro-area central banks as collateral, draft legislation published by the Greek government shows.
The European Financial Stability Facility would lend Greece that amount to buy back sovereign bonds held by central banks as collateral in refinancing operations, according to documents posted on the Hellenic parliament's website. The European Central Bank would facilitate the purchases.
In July last year, then-ECB President Jean-Claude Trichet said that euro-area governments had agreed to guarantee as much as 35 billion euros of Greek debt for the purposes of ECB refinancing operations. That would be necessary if Greece is deemed to be in selective default after a bond swap with private-sector investors, because the ECB cannot accept bonds with a default rating.
The Greek parliament will vote today on austerity measures required for the embattled nation to receive a second bailout worth 130 billion euros from euro-area partners. That may pave the way for the bond swap, which aims to shave 100 billion euros off more than 200 billion euros of privately-held debt.
The documents show the EFSF would also provide 30 billion euros "in order to permit Greece to finance, in part, the Voluntary Liability Management Transaction," or private-sector bond swap. A further 5.7 billion euros would help cover interest payments on the bonds.
The EFSF could lend Greece an additional 23 billion euros "in order to finance the recapitalization of certain financial institutions," according to one document.

lol! Zimmerman stalked Martin. And he did it with a loaded weapon.<quoted text>
Neither of those are valid reasons for 2nd degree.
Because the incident was avoidable, does not mean Zimmerman started the fight.
It doesn't matter what Martin was doing at the time. It doesn't matter that Zimmerman was following Martin. The only thing that does is who started the fight. And that will be hard to prove.
Again, I am not for what Zimmerman did, there just isn't proof. That is what is needed.
We all KNOW what Zimmerman was doing and where Martin was headed.
And we all KNOW Zimmerman killed him with that loaded weapon.
