Panasonic RP-HJE120-K In-Ear Earbud Ergo-Fit Headphone (Black)
"This is gonna be a simple review BASS For a $7 in ear it is actually really good. A little overbearing at times but quite articulate considering the price. MIDS They are not airy and vocals by no means sound lifelike but they are clear and not muddied by the elevated bass. HIGHS This is where this in ear does not shine. It is extremely recessed around the 10kHz to 14kHz range so..." --JAMEZTHEBOI
Panasonic RP-HJE355-K High Fidelity Ergo-Fit Inner Ear Earbud Headphone Black
" I bought this and the JVC HA-FX40 at around the same price($20 each). I like this for the better behaved highs, overall slight warmth, and what seems like a slightly better build quality. I like the HA-FX40 for its slightly better detail, although its highs are a bit too strong at times. The HJE355 has a very ergonomic shape and I think most people will find that it is very..." --JK1

"The reason why i bought these earphones was just the special offer I found about 2 years ago. They were sell in bundle with a 16GB pendrive for about 45€, so I paid them less than 30€ or something close. For that price there can't be any remorse. The box is just splendid, inside you can find a strange circular small case for the eraphones (actually not that handly), airplane adapter and..." --JamesTrab
Jays t-JAYS Two
"Bought these headphones as a means to replace my sennheiser cx300-ii, which was still working at the time so I had a standard to compare the jays to. First thing I realised was that the jays had a bit more bass than the sennheisers - which was something I was looking for back then. Next thing I noticed was that the mids and highs were not as clear as they were on the..." --flat bob
Jays a-JAYS Four iPhone
" I bought these as a replacement for the crap apple headphones. I immediately appreciated the nice, loud and solid sound, and how they felt like they belonged in my ears. The concave shape of the casing just feels right. The nice tangle free cable was great for just tossing in my pocket and pulling them out, giving them a shake or two, and they are good to go. ..." --Dneale

I can't say that I blame him, Toying. I don't know how many times I've lost girlfriends and lovers to a vibrating cock ring. All my wining, dining and being a sentient lifeform just couldn't compete with 2 inches of rubber and a watch battery.
If he's swayed by science, you could point him to this study, which showed that women who use vibrators benefit from more arousal, lubrication, sexual satisfaction and orgasms, and experience less pain during sex. In short, good vibes for you = more sex for him.
You might also suggest going to the sex toy store together and letting him pick out something that doesn't make him feel defensive. He might have it in his head that all toys look and sound like alien lawn mower bludgeons. Sharing the bed with a motorized vacuum attachment or Hitachi Magic Wand can be an unwieldy task, especially for the uninitiated (though there's a reason it has "magic" in the name, and it is because of the vanishing coin tricks!). But there's no need to bring the Hubble telescope into bed. There are plenty of smaller, less intimidating toys out there, like bullets, "love" rings and those finger massager things that turn your digits into vibrators. Such toys certainly don't replace p-in-the-v sex, they simply enhance what's already there with a little technology and a lot of awesome. Like Robocop. Doesn't your boyfriend want to be Robocop? You could also promise not to use the toy(s) you get unless he's around, so he won't feel "replaced."
Alternately, you could tell him that his hand makes you feel weird and defensive and you'd appreciate he not use it to pleasure himself unless you are there and directly involved. Because that's how silly he sounds.
Liking one thing in bed doesn't diminish one's enjoyment of other sexual acts. At the end of the day, it boils down to this: Does your partner want you to experience more arousal and orgasms and happiness? If so, then he should be willing to silicompromise.

XS batteries are priced the same everywhere but I would recommend buying from Sonic because of the great customer service and fast and free shipping. Cant beat that on a 60 pound battery.

|Helps Alot!
Review by
Jacob from Savannah, GA
I used to have just a stock battery in the front of my 2006 Ford Exployer and ran a 2400RMS stereo system with stock alternator, but now switching out my old stock battery with this juiced up my whole vehicle alot! You could tell the difference by my lights not dimming at all at night which they used to do with my old battery. You could also tell by my voltage drops not being as bad like my old stock battery had it dropping down to under 12 volts, now the lowest I've seen is 12.5 volts or so in idle and that was with high power sucking from it from my 2400rms stereo system at full tilt. If you have the extra cash to invest in a battery like this for a high end stereo, get it!

Manchester man who was injured when dragged by SUV is arrested for allegedly pointing gun during incident
Police said Eric Rynasko, 30, of Manchester, threatened the driver of the SUV with a firearm during the altercation Sunday at 2 a.m. at Amherst and Ashland streets.
Rynasko is accused of handling the firearm in a reckless manner before pointing it at the driver.
Police recovered the weapon on Ashland Street.
Rynasko remains hospitalized in the intensive care unit at Elliot Hospital, where he is being treated for a serious head injury.
Ashland Street resident Cheryl Peabody said she looked out her door Sunday morning to see a young white male sitting on the ground wiping his head.
Peabody said she heard no shouting before a fire engine arrived.

|(ARA) Most families know the domino effect of illness all too well: one child gets sick, then the other, and pretty soon the sound of sniffling and coughing is echoing throughout the house. And when the kids head back to school, they are exposed to even more germs, making it even more difficult to stay healthy.
Maintaining your family's health is a challenge, but there are a few tried-and-true methods for keeping germs at bay during the school year.
Clean hands means fewer germs
Simply put, frequent hand washing is one of the best strategies for preventing germs from entering your body. The CDC makes the following recommendations: Always wash after visiting the bathroom and before eating.
Teach your children to wash their hands for as long as it takes them to sing the "Happy Birthday" song from beginning to end twice. Always use soap and water and always dry hands thoroughly.
But when you need to clean your hands and can't get to a sink, a good hand sanitizer such as PURELL(R) Hand Sanitizer can help protect you from winter germs, bugs and illnesses. For families on the go, products like the PURELL JELLY WRAP (TM) Hand Sanitizer can be easily attached to backpacks or belt loops for quick and easy access.
A recent study determined that classrooms that make PURELL Hand Sanitizer available to students had 20 percent fewer sick days by students compared with those that didn't offer the hand sanitizer.
It's a good idea to go over some of the best times to use hand sanitizer with your children. Some common scenarios that they may encounter during the school day include:
Even if you are practicing the healthiest habits, your body can't evade every illness. A flu vaccination is your best protection against catching the virus, according to the U.S. government. For other flu prevention tips and instructions on what to do if you are experiencing symptoms, visit www.flu.gov.
If you get sick, stay home
Not getting the proper rest will only make your sickness worse, and your child's performance in the classroom - or your performance in the workplace - could suffer if you still attend when you are ill.
But perhaps the biggest reason for staying home is out of courtesy to other students and workers. Spreading illness is not something you want to be responsible for.
For more tips on staying healthy this school year and information on hand sanitizer, visit www.purell.com.

Supplemental draft?
I have yet to see anything on the supplemental draft except the Pryor bit. Somehow I doubt that Pryor was the only player taken in the supplemental draft. Does anyone have a link to the complete draft, or an up-to-the-minute pick-by-pick listing? Thanks.
Re: Supplemental draft?
There were five other players eligible for the supplemental draft, including Georgia RB Caleb King, but Pryor was the only name called. King was slated to be the Bulldogs starting running back this season after rushing for more than 1,000 yards combined over the past two years. But he was ruled academically ineligible this summer, ending his Georgia career.
King did not waste much time finding a time once the supplemental draft passed, however, reportedly signing a deal with the Vikings.
In addition to King, Mike McAdoo (North Carolina), Tracy Wilson (Northern Illinois), Keenan Mace (Lindenwoo) and Torez Jones (Western Carolina) also went undrafted.
Re: Supplemental draft?
Wow. It really was a one-man-draft. Weird. Thanks for the article.
Re: Supplemental draft?
i found these pics using google...:chuckle:
Re: Supplemental draft?
Well it seems that people are unaware of the supplimental draft. But that could change with Terrelle Pryor it seems.
Re: Supplemental draft?
I certainly don't understand it. Seems more like an auction than a draft, but whatever.

warm season bermuda
I hadn't seen many specific threads on us southern guys that deal with primarily common bermuda/ zoysia... I currently have a liquid program with granular fert. I'd like to go all liquid if possible but I'm afraid of burning lawns with low rates of carrier that i spray my herbicides with.. what is a good program u guys are using that u like? Herbicide and fert. Btw its my first year being licensed and doing commercial work... my year has been good so far but I'd like to improve equipment to ai nozzles to help with drift. Wind is always blowing here...
Posted via Mobile Device
My big problem is insects Chinch Bug Sod Web worms Etc. St Augustine need a high volume application to penetrate the thick thatch. Bill bugs in Zoysia and ground perils etc in Bermuda. So far I am not having the Chinch Bug resistant problems others are having.
BTW an other advantage/disadvantage is Herbicides that must be applied separate @ a rate of one gallon. This I do more as a spot treatment rather than a blanket. But with a thick turf most of my weed control is where the Weed eater scalps.
When dealing with Fire Ants, Fleas & Ticks etc. a High volume of carrier is a must IMHO.
Because most of my accounts are postage stamps a Z sprayer type Ride on is not practical for me.

Critic Reviews for Embrace of the Vampire
All Critics (10) | Fresh (1) | Rotten (9) | DVD (6)
The film is caught in a spin-dry cycle where there's a ton of conflict (nightmares, school pressure, peer pressure) but no mounting action.
In spite of this clear connection with its namesake predecessor, Embrace of the Vampire actually more closely resembles a different film: 2010's ballet thriller Black Swan.
Sexy? Yes. As sexy as it thinks itself to be? Sadly, no.
Just look at the cast and walk quickly past the rental shelf...quickly...
Audience Reviews for Embrace of the Vampire
An interesting, surreal, erotic, somewhat strange vampire film. It sort of reminds me of Jean Rollins films, but transported to a 1990s college setting. It's not a great movie, but I liked watching it anyway.More
Super Reviewer
Could've been better. Jordan Ladd just about steals the show from Alyssa Milano, Martin Kemp is just horrible - no way, no how did I buy him as a vampire, and Harrison Pruett has the charisma of a chunk of wood. The 90's fashions are more entertaining than the story here, and though it started off okay, by the end it had totally lost me. I would imagine the only people who would actually like this would be those looking to see Alyssa Milano topless (and there is a lot of that on show here).More

you know those saturday afternoons when a movie comes on and you think, "i have nothing better to do", so you watch it while youre doing things around the house? watching a wall would have been something better to do. one of the worst things ever made.More

2014 honda accord hybrid lease
2014 Honda Accord Hybrid : 2014 Honda Accord Hybrid Lease
Honda fully redesigned the Accord last year, improving the sedan's interior, adding the latest technology features and increasing fuel economy on four-cylinder models. But the real tweet-tastic gain in fuel economy comes out this year. Here we have the new 2014 Accord Hybrid model, and it's promising a nice, round 50 mpg in the city. You can bet the Toyota Prius just did a spit-take.
This new Accord joins a small group of hybrid family sedans this year. Its closest competitor is the 2014 Ford Fusion Hybrid, which offers virtually identical fuel economy and a quieter, comfier ride. We ranked it higher in a Hybrid Sedan Comparison Test, but the Accord Hybrid still managed to prove itself superior to the less efficient 2014 Toyota Camry Hybrid. One could also consider the Hyundai Sonata Hybrid and Kia Optima Hybrid, but they don't come close to any of the aforementioned hybrids' fuel economy. If you're shopping for a hybrid sedan this year, the 2014 Honda Accord Hybrid certainly merits a close look.
The 2014 Honda Accord Hybrid is powered by a 2.0-liter four-cylinder engine combined with an electric motor. Together, they send a total of 196 hp and 226 pound-feet of torque to the front wheels through a continuously variable transmission (CVT). In Edmunds performance testing, it went from zero to 60 mph in 7.5 seconds, making it one of the quickest non-luxury hybrids on the road.
The 2014 Honda Accord Hybrid comes with antilock disc brakes, stability and traction control, active front head restraints, front seat side airbags, side curtain airbags, blind-spot monitoring (LaneWatch) and a rearview camera as standard. Lane-departure and forward-collision warning systems come with the EX-L and Touring trim levels.
Pleasingly, the 2014 Honda Accord Hybrid drives, well, like an Accord. It is peppy, stable and responsive around turns and pretty comfortable and quiet. Braking is smooth and without the slow-speed grabbiness some hybrids and EVs exhibit as a side effect of the switch from regenerative to mechanical braking. The only potential downside is that the ride quality is a bit stiffer than most competitors, but unless you're really expecting a cushiony ride, it's not likely to be an issue.
Here is needful recommendation on 2014 honda accord hybrid review. We have the tops resources for 2014 honda accord hybrid review. Check it out for yourself! You can discover 2014 Honda Accord Hybrid Lease guide and look the latest 2014 Honda Accord Hybrid in here.

WASHINGTON - The argument for D.C. statehood is decades old, but Mayor Vincent Gray says that local support for the idea is reaching new heights, and got a national boost this week.
Speaking at a gathering of business and community leaders this week, Gray moved the topic from jobs to statehood, saying, "It's time for the people of this city to get their hearts into this endeavor. ... Nobody is going to fight our battles for us."
Gray also says a statehood rally during last weekend's commemorations of the March on Washington, attended by several thousand people, only inspired him further.
"We've never gotten to this point before," Gray says. "We had more people down to the statehood rally than we ever had."
President Carter added to the discussion during Wednesday's commemoration of the March anniversary, saying, "I think we would know how Dr. King would have reacted to the people of the District of Columbia still not having full citizenship rights," to cheers.

I love this quad - the colors are matte, well coordinated, and they last all day (I do not have oily eyelids - I don't know if this would be true for those who struggle with oily eyelids). I generally use the lightest brown shade the most - it's perfect for looking understated, yet also dramatically changing the whole look of my eyes - subtle yet powerful. Sometimes I use the other colors on my brows and the lightest color is a good highlighter. I will actually repurchase this eyeshadow - something I never do!
Btw - I've got blue eyes and pale skin. These browns make my blue eyes really stand out.

It is so hard to find a good set of matte eyeshadows. The best set of matte neutrals I have yet to find is Cargo's Essential's palette but I was hoping to find a cheaper equivilent but my search continues.
I bought this set hoping to make it like an everyday matte neutral eyeshadow look.
The shadows themselves are good, they are pigmented just fine, and the colors are pretty good too. The only qualm I have is the color combination. The browns are a bit too similar for me. Sure they look different in packaging, but on the eye when you put them in your crease, the difference is very subtle, in my opinion. I wish there was another lighter color (for the eyelid?) and I wish the darker shade was dark enough to be used as a brown eyeliner.
Currently I just lightest shade for both lid and brow bone area and whatever darker shade I feel like using in my crease and the darkest in the outer corner. It serves its purpose and as I said before, the colors and quality of the shadow are great.
In any case, I still gave it 4 lippies because it's difficult as it is to even find a good neutral truly matte quad (or any matte eyeshadow for that matter). I just hope they consider their color scheme in the future.

I hadn't worn matte shadows for years, but after reading positive reviews from so many MUA'ers of my age (45-plus) I decided this was worth a try. Originally planned to get Canyon Classics quad, but two of the colors in that one looked exactly the same. This one had more variety: cream, beige, a camel tan and a pinky-beige shade.
You know how in most quads, there are two colors that you use all the time and two (usually really light and really dark) that you rarely use? In this one, you will use all the colors all the time.
These shadows are truly matte, finely milled and deposit a lot of color. They blend well and look very natural. This would be a good quad for a business trip or other situation where you need non-dramatic shadow. The colors are suitable for any work environment, no matter how conservative. The trim, square case fits neatly in my makeup drawers. Even the sponge applicator isn't that bad in a pinch.
My only complaint is it would be nice if there were ONE deeper shade (not eyeliner dark, just medium dark) in the quad for a bit more variety. The two "camel" tones are too similar.
This is not an earth-shattering quad that will make your heart pound with glee when you apply the colors - but it is a good little workhorse and for under $6 at Kmart, you can't beat the price.
EDIT: 6 months after buying I've noticed this is THE quad I pull out again and again in the mornings. The colors also have impressive staying power -- as good as my higher end shadows. This may not be "sexy" but it's definitely "go-to."

I have been searching forever for matte shadows. I purchased Canyon Classics and the Classic Nudes on sale at drugstore.com. Of the two, Classic Nudes was worse than Canyon Classics and I found that one pretty bad too.
The Nudes are warm shades. The lighter shades looked plain awful with my skin tone. The other two shades were just as bad. The lighter brown looked orange and the darkest shade looked like I had applied mud to my eyes. Blending the product was not easy ~ it's hard to blend orange and mud brown together with much success. This purchase is going back to the store. I will not buy this product again...
PRO: These are very matte shadows, in neutral colors, so they have their uses. They're also relatively inexpensive.
CON: They are very lightly pigmented. If you are very pale skinned, these might work for you to create a very neutral eye. But if you have a medium or darker complexion, don't bother! Even with a primer (UDPP), these disappear on me.

Wrote a similar review for the Canyon quad but I feel the need to also write one for this quad. These are completely matte and superb for blending. It's amazing how inexpensive it is as well. It's very hard to find truly matte eye shadow without shimmer or shine and with good quality. This is a true gem of a product.

I bought this half off at Walgreens a week ago.
PROS: smooth texture.
CONS: VERY UNPIGMENTED!!! Expensive at full price. Crappy applicator.
Save your money and get something else!
For all the sales and coupons available to me for Physicians Formula cosmetics, I kept on trying their quads, hoping that such a moderately-priced option would work. Yet, their Canyon Classics looked sickly grey on me, and this Classic Nudes collections looks orange and muddy. I own plenty of matte shadows, but they're mostly department store brands featuring more nuanced colors, with a touch more yellow, gold or bronze to enhance pale coloring like mine. The texture and blendability of PF matte e/s is very nice, but their color offerings are just not flattering on me.
this is a perfect nude look, i love it, smooth and easy to apply.

Flesh tone neutral mattes is just what I was looking for and these eye shadows delivered all that and more with a silky smooth application. The compact has a tiny mirror and a place for the included applicator. I wasn't sure if I'd use the lightest color but they are very blendable and they don't dust up and make a mess in the compact. Absolutely no glitter and no shine! It doesn't look powdery or cakey. Covers up eyelid imperfections like darkness or small purple veins and leaves a natural look. If you want drama you won't find it here. The color lasts and doesn't crease on me. I applied once in the am and then in the pm before going out to dinner.

Kconfigure source rpm build errors
There were some problems building kconfigure from the source rpm.
1) Spec file in SRPM uses %setup -n %{name}-%{version} while the tar file doesn't have a version number. Fix is to remove "-%{version}".
2) Spec file cd's to $HOME just before building the file list. That should be "cd %{buildroot}
3) The spec file references %{distversion} which is probably not set in .rpmrc.
My guess is that the SRPM is not the one used to build the distribution RPM.

Most companies incorporate backup procedures for critical data, which can be restored quickly if a loss occurs. However, fewer companies are prepared for catastrophic system failures, in which they lose all data, the entire operating system, applications, settings, patches and more, reducing their system(s) to "bare metal." After all, before data can be restored to a system, there must be a system to restore it to.
In this one hour webinar, learn how to enhance your existing backup strategies for better disaster recovery preparedness using Storix System Backup Administrator (SBAdmin), a highly flexible bare-metal recovery solution for UNIX and Linux systems.

HOLLYWOOD - Diane Keaton first began dreaming of becoming a movie star when she was a little girl, but never openly expressed that dream to anyone.
"I come from extremely sensitive stock," says Keaton, now 62. "We were all very sensitive people. I was not only sensitive, but cautious and fearful. Accepting how far I've come, I can only assume that my childhood desires for movie stardom overshadowed my fears. I loved the movies and wanted to be a part of that.
"But I would never have said that to anyone. I believed that if you owned up to your fantasy, then it would surely fall apart. I kept it to myself and just kept pursuing my dream quietly.
"I'll never forget the moment that all that changed. I was standing backstage in a theater when I was doing Woody's play 'Play It Again, Sam,' when another actress said to me: 'If I don't make it by the time I'm 23, I'm quitting the business.' What she said terrified me because I was 23. It was time for me to admit out loud that acting was going to be my life."
Keaton was born in Los Angeles, graduated from Santa Ana High School, she attended one semester at what was then Santa Ana College and one semester at Orange Coast College. She left OCC after one of her drama instructors advised her to go to New York City to study her craft. She was accepted into noted drama teacher Sanford Meisner's Neighborhood Playhouse.
From the Neighborhood Playhouse, Keaton joined a theater group based in Woodstock, N.Y., and later won the part of an understudy in the original Broadway production of "Hair." She got her first bit of show business buzz when she became the only member of the cast to refuse to take off her clothes in the musical.
Woody Allen cast her in his play "Play It Again, Sam," which led to her first film role in "Lovers and Other Strangers." Her role as Michael Corleone's girlfriend Kay in "The Godfather" followed shortly thereafter, and then came eight films with Allen, including her Oscar-winning performance in "Annie Hall."
"The Oscar couldn't have come at a more opportune time," she says. "But it was a total shock. I had never been nominated for anything before, and it was extremely rare for any performance in a comedy to be recognized. And I didn't even do an accent."
But while the Oscar made her a star, Keaton acknowledges that she didn't fully take advantage of the good fortune.
"I was a late developer and, at 30, I was too overwhelmed to take advantage of it. I wish I had been more enterprising at the time. I was offered a clothing line but I didn't do it. I was foolish. All I did was sit around and wait for the next Woody Allen movie. I would do things differently now.
"Time changes everything."
In her current film, "Mad Money," Keaton stars as a comfortable, country-club type who finds herself down on her luck after her husband is downsized out of a job. She is so desperate for money to pay the bills that she takes a job as a janitor at the Federal Reserve Bank in Kansas City. With two new friends and co-workers, played by Queen Latifah and Katie Holmes, she hatches a plan to steal money that is headed for the shredder. "I took this role for two reasons. The first is that I love physical comedy, and I never get to do enough of it. Woody's comedies were all verbal.
"The second reason is that I love the message of this movie, which is not just the female bonding aspect (the movie was directed by the queen of female bonding movies - Callie Khouri of "Thelma and Louise" fame), but the idea that good things can happen to you no matter what age you are. You should never think that your life is over and that you can't learn new things or have new experiences just because you've reached a certain age."
It is understandable that Keaton might identify with the movie's message.
She has enjoyed an enviable "second act."
Her acting career was moving along at a steady but unremarkable pace (the "Father of the Bride" movies in 1991 and 1995 were the most noteworthy of the bunch) until director Nancy Meyers cast her opposite Jack Nicholson in the hit comedy "Something's Gotta Give." She was nominated for an Oscar, her fourth Oscar nod after "Annie Hall," "Reds" and "Marvin's Room."
She has directed two films ("Unstrung Heroes" and "Hanging Up") and is producing movies (her most notable effort was director Gus Van Sant's take on schoolyard shootings, "Elephant").
Her personal life also has undergone a dramatic upheaval in recent years.
Never married, the actress adopted two children (her daughter Dexter is 12, and son Duke is 7), published seven books, works feverishly on the board of the Los Angeles Conservancy to preserve historical architecture, buys and restores old homes and just started her own furniture company - Keaton Manufacturing Co.
"I'm doing all the things now that I was too fearful to do when I was younger," she says. "I'm smarter and more experienced, but it also has to do with my children. It is important that I remain vital and energetic for them. It's important for me to take on new adventures, and that makes this a great time in my life.
"It is so great," she adds, "that I can see one day giving up acting and becoming a full-time businesswoman. I mean that. If my new furniture company is successful enough for me to make a living at it, I could give up acting.
"I could never say that before, but I'm not fearful anymore."
