Last month, we introduced you to the Heeldo, a strap-on harness for the foot. In total, 113 of you voted and a whopping 83% were fans of footballin', while just 17% wanted to kick the Heeldo to the curb. It probably helped that Heeldo told its Twitter followers to toe the line and vote in our poll. But we don't want our praise to seem arch or callous. So we'll simply say congratulations Heeldo!
This month's contender on Turn On or Buzz Off ain't nothin' to sneeze at. Meet the NoseBanger, the world's first (only?) nose-stimulating dildo. Last year, we wrote about the tentative discovery of the N-Spot, an erogenous zone in the right nostril. Located in the columella, the fleshy outer part of the septum, this discreet bundle of nerves is quite sensitive to pressure. Many dedicated nasal spelunkers have even discovered the ability to have an "orgasm-like" experience when probing the N-Spot.
According to the marketing literature sent with the NoseBanger, its creators are hoping to um, fill the hole in the market for toys catering to nasophiles:
Made of platinum cure, body-safe silicone, the NoseBanger is the world's first nasal dildo. Simply slip the NoseBanger over your index finger, generously apply lubricant, and then gently insert into your nostril or your partner's.
If you are "N-Spotting," insert into the right nostril and gently push the head of the NoseBanger to the mid-point of the septum. Gently and firmly rub the cartilage to awaken and stimulate the nerve bundle. With dedicated practice, many users report experiencing climax. Whether to pleasure your N-Spot or simply to enjoy penetration in a new way, the NoseBanger guarantees hours of fun!
The NoseBanger's creators also suggest slipping a condom over your finger, for protection and to prevent slippage. Though it can be used with any lube, they're recommending their own viscous, water-based formula I Can't Believe It'S Not Lube.
Say what you will about the inventors of the NoseBanger– they've got a sense of humor. In fact, their pun-filled brochure is like mucus to our ears. We wonder what their manufacturing process looks like. Can we take a tour of the ole' factory?
Unfortunately, the makers of the NoseBanger did not send along any photos of their product in use. But given the rise in nasophilia, we smell a hit! It shouldn't be long before nasophiles are posting pics of their plundered holes on schnoz sites all over the interwebs.
On the other hand, we have some logistical questions. Won't we look a bit silly with a small cock up our noses? And what about nose hair? Do we wax it bare or keep the classic bush? Won't this toy just make us insecure about the size of our nostrils?
What about you? Do you dig the NoseBanger? Would you pick it or flick it? Take our poll!

Tell the FDA: Don't Irradiate My Veggies!
The FDA has proposed a new rule under the 2010 Food Safety Modernization Act (FSMA), one aimed at preventing foodborne illnesses. One of the ways for producers of fruits and vegetables to avoid having to comply with the new rule would be to irradiate their products.
Sign the letter below to tell the FDA: Don't irradiate my veggies!
In the new rule, one of two proposed under the misguided FSMA, the FDA says it wants to require makers of food to be sold in the U.S. to develop a "formal plan" for preventing their products from causing foodborne illness. Producers of processed foods and raw meat are exempted from the rule, but purveyors of raw fruits and vegetables will be required to comply – unless they irradiate their products.
Given the choice between irradiation and dealing with burdensome FDA paperwork, it's safe to assume that many food producers will choose the easier route: irradiation.
Irradiation: What is it, and what does it do to food?
Food irradiation uses high-energy Gamma rays, electron beams, or X-rays - all of which are millions of times more powerful than standard medical X-rays - to break apart the bacteria and insects that can hide in meat, grains, and other foods. Radiation can do strange things to food, by creating substances called "unique radiolytic products." These irradiation by-products include a variety of mutagens, which are substances that can cause gene mutations; polyploidy, an abnormal condition in which cells contain more than two sets of chromosomes; chromosome aberrations, often associated with cancerous cells; and dominant lethal mutations, a change in a cell that prevents it from reproducing. To make matters worse, many mutagens are also carcinogens.
According to the US Government Accounting Office's Department of the Army's Food Irradiation Program, irradiation damages food by breaking up molecules and creating free radicals. The free radicals kill some bacteria, but they also bounce around in the food, damage vitamins and enzymes, and combine with chemicals already in the food, such as pesticides, to form new chemicals, called unique radiolytic products (URPs).
Some of these URPs, including benzene, formaldehyde and lipid peroxides, are unique to irradiated foods. Scientists haven't studied the long-term effect of these new chemicals in our diet, so how can we – or the FDA – assume they are safe?
The FDA would have us believe that irradiation is perfectly safe. Yet research has revealed a wide range of problems in animals that ate irradiated food, including premature death, a rare form of cancer, reproductive dysfunction, chromosomal abnormalities, liver damage, low weight gain and vitamin deficiencies.
Take action today! Please sign the letter below to tell the FDA: Don't irradiate my veggies!

Watch The Battle of Algiers movie. A movie "The Battle of Algiers" director by Gillo Pontecorvo. It's also a story repeated with variations in stacks of parts of the orb now, as then. There's no contact where as in a formal thriller we look turmoil and feeling for the perpetrator, because we see the abuse of the offender and the humaneness of the individual every measure. Apiece surface had its own ideology and adamantly believed that they were doing what was in the superfine share. Gillo Ponticorvo's movement is somewhere between that of Rome, Give Metropolis and Salvatore Guiliano. In fact one of the unexcelled decisions prefab by Gillo Pontecorvo was to copy Saadi Yacef who was directly involved in the sincere events to effectively romp himself. Equal author drastic measures that sometimes. Notwithstanding, the film ends with a close, portrayal demonstrations and disorder by indigene Algerians for freedom, in which it advisable that though the Romance eff won the Action of Port.
We also see the children in the places where the Gorillas bombed, and also where the Sculpturer set gun blast or bombed. The various characters and perspectives in the film lucubrate this pick so asymptomatic and at much nervy lengths that there are nowadays where you won't still judge your eyes. It leaves the viewer the alternative to urinate their own conclusions. Despite the movie style imagery, no stem footage of the uprising was utilized.

Invoke Sigmar's Wrath to Smite Your Foes
Faith of Sigmar, a Print on Demand expansion for WFRP, is now available |
Warhammer Fantasy Roleplay: Faith of Sigmar | Published 19 January 2012 |
The life of a priest of Sigmar is a life of war – an endless war waged against the Empire's many foes.
–Tome of Blessings
Priests of Sigmar, rejoice! Your prayers have been answered. The Empire's patron deity has not forgotten his people in their time of greatest need. While Beastmen and bands of Chaos marauders threaten the Empire's borders, cultists summon daemons, foment rebellion, and sow corruption within its cities. Against these threats, devout Sigmarites take arms, lifting their warhammers and preparing for battle, and Sigmar grants them new powers to smite their foes.
Fantasy Flight Games is proud to announce that Faith of Sigmar, a Print on Demand supplement for Warhammer Fantasy Roleplay, is now available through our webstore to bolster your campaign and the Empire.
Though Sigmar is not renowned as a god of prophecy, the Empire's commoners tend to find omens of his will everywhere they turn. So synonymous with the Empire is Sigmar, that commoners find his prophecies in virtually every aspect of mundane life–the overcast sky, a nagging injury, or the sound of a hammer hitting an anvil. Amidst so much confusion, it becomes difficult to read true signs, but some signs now show so clearly as to be unmistakeable. Sigmar's Empire stands threatened, and he is wroth!
Faith of Sigmar introduces fifteen new blessings and two new items full of righteous wrath!
Whether you're confronting your first heretic or preparing to answer the Hero's Call in epic battle, Faith of Sigmar gives your Sigmarite new ways to bolster your allies, inflame their passions, and convey your hatred of your enemies into powerful and decisive action. The fifteen blessings in Faith of Sigmar run from Rank 1 to Rank 5, and its two new items easily mark their bearer as one of Sigmar's most favoured.
What is Print on Demand?
Originally debuted with our announcement of expansions for Space Hulk – Death Angel: The Card Game, Print on Demand is an exciting new process that allows Fantasy Flight Games to produce professionally finished cards on a made-to-order basis, which opens up new opportunities for expanding existing games.
This process (not to be confused with Print and Play), results in smaller print runs of professionally manufactured products, allowing publishers to provide fans with content that would otherwise not be commercially viable. If you're a retailer interested in carrying our Print on Demand products, visit our Professional Zone website to learn more.
Why Print on Demand instead of a traditional product?
These Print on Demand products are not a substitute for normal Warhammer Fantasy Roleplay releases. Instead, we use this unique form of direct manufacturing to augment our regular support for the game. Print on Demand enables us to provide special content that otherwise would likely not have seen the light of day. This is the awesome proposition of the Print on Demand format, and we're excited it enables us to provide players with cool material.
Order yours today
Whether your priest invokes just one new blessing from Faith of Sigmar, or you aspire to use them all, Faith of Sigmar gives you exciting new ways to enjoy Warhammer Fantasy Roleplay. Learn more from our detailed description page, or place your order through our webstore. Then, assail your foes with the might of Sigmar's wrath!
Note: Due to variations in the printing process, cards from Print on Demand expansions will be subtly different in appearance and texture from base game cards.
Smite your foes with the Faith of Sigmar!
How's this for totally out the blue, awesome news!
My wallet is cringing at the thought, because I'm CLEARLY gonna be buying these when they hit the shores of the UK, but I'm all over it like white on rice.
I would LOVE them to continue this vain - as mentioned below, it's a good way of providing niche products. A generic equipment set would be great in my opinion for starters! :)
I wonder if it's possible to do a PoD (or Cast on Demand?) coin set....
I want more runes, more Engineer and Runesmith Action Cards and more Dwarf Careers! And the POd give the opportunity to produce niche stuff without a box.
Good work FFG, I think this is great news! Already ordered mine and I look forward to seeing more of these in the future
This is great news!
Thanks for replying Christian. Though you know for obsessive completists like me all new material is must-have material. :) Who would have a Priest of Sigmar without wanting these extra abilities?
Anyway, glad to hear that regular WFRP releases and support are still a priority! Cheers.
The WFRP POD products are not a substitute for regular WFRP releases. Instead, we use this unique form of direct manufacturing to augment our regular support for the game. POD's feasibly enables us to provide special content that otherwise would likely not have seen the light of day. This is the awesome proposition of the POD format, and we're excited it enables us to provide players with cool material.
In fact, I've posted the above paragraph into the actual article, as it's a point that should be made broadly. Thanks for the well-worded objection, I hope my answer allays your concern.
Thumbs up from me, as I've posted more detailed reasons for in a discussion thread on WFRP forum.
I have the Death Angel PoD cards and the subtle difference they speak about is that the PoD cards don't have the 'linen' look. They're the same size/shape/colors. You just can tell them apart from the base cards.
This isn't a problem when the look of the cards isn't important (ie, you're not shuffling the cards together).
I don't understand all the negative feedback this new format is getting. I for one am stoked about WH products being available via POD. If they decide to continue to release cards in small departmentalized batches like Faith, or Spell School, or any other particular theme, that's fantastic. At $7 for around 20 new cards, I don't see how this is detrimental to cost. If you only need additional Bright Order spells, then just buy that particular pack, etc.
Here's to hoping that locations, melee and ranged, and support actions all get the same treatment.
I'm not sure what to make of this:
Note: Due to variations in the printing process, cards from Print on Demand expansions will be subtly different in appearance and texture from base game cards.
I'm also kind of torn on this. I'm hoping eventually these POD things would get boxed up and sold as a regular, boxed, supplement at least.
I personally don't think that POD is appropriate for WFRP. POD for boardgames maybe, but not RPGs. Please give us proper WFRP supplements, not trickles of new cards that are expensive and difficult to get overseas. I'm a long-term WFRP supporter, but sadly I'm really disappointed with this approach to getting us new material.
Well Beren, for me it's the opposite.
The card quality is fine. Pretty much in line with some boxed games.
The fact that it's compartmentalized by faith/order is not a bad thing. I'd rather get those than pay for another $50 boxed set for spells and blessings that won't get used. Economically, this works for me and FFG.
There are a few on line retailers that stock the print on demand at a reduced price, making it an even better deal.

BHUBANESWAR: With its proposed captive port project at Jatadhari running into rough weather, Posco on Thursday held talks with Paradip port officers to explore possibilities of using the latter's facilities in case its mega steel project materializes in Jagatsinghpur district.
A team from Posco, led by the company's deputy managing director H C Ryu, discussed the company's possible cargo requirements with Paradip Port Trust chairman G Jagannath Rao and other senior port officers at Paradip. "We decided to form a joint team with three members each from both sides. The team would study the facilities in our port, Posco's needs and then submit a report," Rao told TOI.
Sources said the joint team is expected to undertake its study between April 2 and 14. Rao had met Posco chairman-cum-managing director Yong-Won Yoon here on February 28 and proposed the South Korean company to consider using the facilities at Paradip port, a central government undertaking, instead of setting up its own captive port at Jatadhari, around 10 km from Paradip. "Our port is old and there would be no depreciation costs. Hence, our rates will be comparatively cheaper for Posco," he explained.
Posco exploring new options for port and raw material almost coincides with an inter-ministerial meeting organized by the Union government in New Delhi earlier this week to sort out issues like special economic zone for the company's project.
While Posco's bid to access the Khandadhar iron ore reserves in Sundergarh district is locked in litigation, its proposed captive port at Jatadhari is facing resistance from different quarters on grounds that it would cause ecological damage and also adversely affect the prospects of Paradip port.
Worried about lack of raw material linkage, Posco has reportedly held talks with Thriveni Earthmovers Private Limited, which is the raising contractor for at least six mines in Keonjhar district, for supply of iron ore in case its steel plant becomes operational.
Thursday's meeting came a fortnight after Posco-India's CMD blamed the Odisha government for delay in lifting police restrictions on entering its steel project site in Jagatsinghpur and expressed the need to resume infrastructure and other works at the earliest. It was for the first time that the steel major hit out at the state government since signing an MoU with it in June 2005 for setting up a 12 million tonne per annum (MTPA) unit near Paradip. Yoon said the delay in establishing its steel plant could lead to about 20% cost escalation for the project, which was initially estimated at 12 billion US dollars.
Unhappy with Posco blaming it, the state government had reiterated its support for the country's biggest FDI project and asked the steel company's bosses to come for a discussion. The meeting is yet to take place, official sources said.

Having Problems with Error 550?
You're not alone, I've been seeing error 550 more often during the past few months. Having registry errors such as this one is far from a good thing. These errors can unfortunately lead to other serious issues including system boot failure (basically, when your computer stops loading windows correctly.)Don't worry though, I can help you get it fixed!
If you've seen error 550 once or more there is a huge chance, around a 95% chance, that you are having registry problems. I've included my small step by step guide below on how to easily go about repairing your own registry and removing these errors.
3-Steps to Fix Error 550
Step 1: Download and Run or Save Official Repair Tool (Free)Step 2: Once you have it open, click the "SCAN" button.
Step 3: Simply click the "FIX ERROR" button.
Once you've done these steps you should notice that error message 550 goes away and that you can resume your normal day to day computer operation.
More times than not, error 550 is related to your email is someway, I've seen it occur in eudora and even microsoft mail applications such as microsoft outlook. It has usually displayed the error while trying to connect to smtp mail servers. I'm not sure on the exact specifics of it, but I've heard it has something to do with mail relaying and the settings involved with it. If this is your case or it is similar, the error repair tool I have included above should take care of your problems. If not, you may have more severe issues and you may need the assistance of a professional computer tech to get it resolved. I do suggest giving the repair tool a shot before that though!

Facebook "like" Plugins
If you do a search on Facebook "like" plugins on the WordPress repository, you'll notice that every one of them has had at least on user give them a low rating. There are no high rated Facebook "like" plugins that have 100% high rating.
I am led to believe that one of the authors has gone and trashed the competition – every one of them. Interesting, I am not sure who would have done this as all of them have at least one bad rating. I guess that the person who did all the bad ratings was reacting to someone giving his plugin a bad rating. It is a childish thing, and not all of the plugins can be bad.
Please, if you are a user of my Facebook Open Graph Widget, kindly go and rate it on WordPress.org. My plugin has been lost in the great number of Facebook plugins that appeared in the last month.

You can get the rare DOOM Expansion Set for $59.95 canadian which is basically the same price in USD.
With shipping to the US this will run you about $77. Which is far cheaper than Ebay, Amazon, or Boardgamegeek.
Unless you know of one sitting on a local FLGS shelf, this is the best price i have seen in about 4 months.

Blood Pact: Gearing a Lock for Karazhan, part 2
We continue with our look at how to get your Warlock up to speed for Karazhan content and beyond. Note that the recommendations here are intentionally narrow. I'm focusing on the easiest and surest way of making progress in the gearing game, without relying too much on dungeon drops or grind-to-exalted rep items.
Yes, there are better pre-raid items out there in the various heroics - Magisters' Terrace is probably the best instance to get quality non-raid loot. Badge loot is also another good avenue for outstanding upgrades. Unfortunately, heroics may be challenging affairs for a fresh 70 lock, unless you have a group of geared friends or guildies who are willing to "carry" you through those runs.

I don't remember when I first heard the expression "preparation is not production" but the failure to see the difference has been the most expensive writing mistake of my life.
It was a mistake that was chronic and mostly invisible. Even after I realized I was doing too much prep and not enough writing, I still found excuses – I actually accepted the myth that "90% of writing is procrastination". Little did I know I was under the control of a secret power…
'The secret power of idleness'
The preparation versus production distinction is not a new one.… Read the rest

Debbie July 13, 2008 at 11:56 pm
Great advice! Thanks for the shout!
July 12, 2008
Often in life we know what we want and sometimes we even start in the right direction. … but then, somehow something happens, we get caught up, it runs out, we lose track and then feel frustrated or even like a failure. We are discouraged to live our dreams out and to have a happy life, it just did not work, again.
What can we do in a very practical sense, to just not stand in our own way and sabotage our good intentions?
A lot of how we function runs on autopilot, meaning what we've learned and did on a daily basis, is shaping our life. The patterns that run in our head are formed by doing and thinking the same way over and over again. The results are habits, that we live out daily. May it be the habit to stay awake late watching TV or surfing the internet or the habit to do things like overeating or procrastinating what you really want to do. You know how hard these are to change, even if you recognized as not supportive, don't you?
Bad habits are easy to form, but hard to live with. Good habits are hard to form, but easy to live it. If we are able to repeat something and reinforce it by positive affirmations, we can lock in such good habits that are influencing our life in a continuing way. If you do something that is supporting for more at least 30 days, research shows that you have locked in a positive habit. This is the goal here.
The following 7 habits I chose as the most supportive and life-changing habits that I learned. Speaking from experience, their impact in everyday life really makes a difference:
Basically we use our mind for everything we do in one way or the other. It operates with the information it has to best it can. It is our tool we use to get what we want. Therefore one of the best investments you can do is to train and feed your mind. Both is done perfectly by reading.
Focus your mind on reading every day for at least 30 minutes in a field that is helpful to you. This includes the specific area you want to be successful in or general books that help you to improve and fit your personal style in different areas of your life.
A great addition to this habit is setting a goal of to read at least one book a month. This can easily be done by everybody – think about it: you can read in the subway, bus or taxi, while waiting anywhere, or just walking, driving in the car, or traveling by plane or train. The idea is that whenever someone asks you, you can tell him the book-name you are reading right now.
An absolutely fantastic way to make it even easier and more fun is to listen to audio-books! Everywhere you go, drive or wait, just put on your iPod (or even iPhone, well any other mp3-player will just work fine… ;)) or the CD-player in your car and stop playing the Red Hot Chili Peppers up and down and instead listen to an audio-book. This is way better then reading because a) it is faster, you can get more information quicker b) you usually hear it read by the author (did I say that I love audio-books? :))
Secondly the internet is such a great source today. Knowledge is not a limiting resource anymore, it is available for everybody on the internet. The critical skill is now to choose the best material and really use it. It can't get any easier than that. Just choose the best sources by getting into the field and listen to recommendations. Blogs (such as this one! J ), Wikipedia and websites on a specific topic are available everywhere.
Choose an aerobic exercise that fits you and do it at least 3 or better 4 times a week. Aerobic exercise is done for a period of at least 45 minutes, better 60 minutes in which you keep your pulse at a level of about 130-150 beats per minute. This means you don't push to the extremes, it is not mainly about performance, it is about persistence. Two of the most common sports that fit perfectly are running or swimming.
Now the key here is to find something that you enjoy doing. I personally love swimming. It is fun to be in the water and even more fun to improve the technique. You can talk to others or take a course in the swimming pool. If you are slightly overweight, swimming is also an excellent choice, because it is easier to move the body in the water, than carry it by running (duh! ;))
Another great way is if you can do this with a friend together. But make sure to commit to keeping the habit (remember, at least 30 days of 3 days a week to lock in the habit), even if your partner is not with you.
This is so unbelievable rewarding if you stick with it. It does the following: a) you won't have any real problems with weight ever again, if you develop and maintain this habit. You will burn body-fat in these 60 minutes of aerobic exercise and if you do it 3 or even 4 times a week, you will also be able to lose weight if necessary. And b) you will get an energy boost by doing this. Oxygen is one of the most important substances for our body and to have it in our blood is essential. Also you improve activation of the lymphatic system which is important for our immune system. If you know how you feel after 60 minutes of aerobic exercising, this vital and healthy feeling, then you know that it is worth it. And if you do this 3 or even 4 times a week, this is the energy and health level you can have the whole time.
So just chose a good swimming-location (50 meters or at least 25 meters) or a great running course in a suitable park if you live in a city. Remember to drink a lot after exercising (best is just water) and to talk with your doctor also.
If you choose to run or do something similar you can combine this habit easily habit 1 by listening to great audio programs, what a concept! (If anybody can suggest me an mp3-player I can use swimming, please write a comment! :))
Write a daily journal and reflect on yourself and your progress in life. Everyday we (hopefully ;)) clean our body and brush our teeth, we call it taking care. Why not give the same service to our mind? This is mental care. Keep your inner space clear by getting the things out of the head and reflecting on them, and so making them conscious. Then you can actively choose what to do about it the next day. Sometimes it is even enough to see something as it really is, this gives you inner freedom and keeps you from getting crowded with energy-wasting thoughts and feelings.
Review your day and write down, what is important to you and what you want to improve. Also write down your successes. Reflecting on your daily – even small – successes gives you the support you need to build on it with the next step. Success in live is a progress, it is a sequence of right steps taken, improving something daily until it is something great.
By keeping track of your days you also commit automatically to improve yourself, just by writing and seeing where you are and where you want to be. You can also look back later and see how you progressed and what was important to you, which is really fun.
This is a perfect follow-up the 3. habit, when you write a journal, you can write your goals at the top of the document and have them ready to see and review whenever you want. To read your goals daily keeps you on track of what you really want. It sets your focus on what matters most to you, so you don't lose yourself in the demands of the world around you or get distracted by some short-time pleasures. Reading these written goals daily will dramatically improve your mental focus over time to do, what you need and want to do.
Once a week, preferably every weekend, you sit down and review your goals to see, if they make sense or if you can improve them. Also plan your next week in advance during this period. For every day set one or more major tasks you will accomplish for your goals. You can write this down and then lock these tasks into a calendar or a 2do-list for the next seven days. This will increase your focus even more, will make sure you do what you set out for you achieve and will accelerate you towards your goals.
Every day starts surprisingly enough with waking up in the morning. Haha ;) … yes, but it's a fact. What could be more important than starting perfectly into the day and being energized and optimistic about it as you leave the house, instead of running a thought of "not again this stupid desk in front of me" on autopilot? There are several things you can do, including exercising in the morning (s. habit 2) to develop a supporting morning routine for yourself.
I'd like to suggest 3 parts that want to be nurtured in the morning: body, mind and heart:
Body: Immediately get up if the alarm (or whatever you use) clock starts. Take a shower or a bath. If you can, start your exercise routine (see habit 2). Have a healthy breakfast while you may read or listen (see habit 1) or just be with your family. If not absolutely necessary for your job, don't watch TV or consume other mass media.
Heart: If you are in the shower or while you exercise, think about what you are grateful for in your life, think about everything that is working and be thankful for it. That may be your partner, your family, your friends, what you love to do and can do, what you have and what you are.
Mind: Then think about everything that fulfills you and inspires you. Think about and visualize in your mind, what great thing you want to accomplish today and how good this will be for you and others, how it will add to your goals and how great you are on track. Then quiet the mind and just be for a moment or two. Feel your inner body be fully in the moment and feel the energy raising in you.
Then get going and maybe get a coffee at Starbucks and flirt a bit with the nice girl / or guy that is always there (and maybe even suggest a date after work, if you're feeling lucky ;))
Socialize proactively with your friends and family. People we like or even love are surely among the most important things in our live. If you grow out of school or college, most of the time we lose track of the good friends we had. But it does take only little to keep these nice people in our lives and it is the same for them. They love to be around you and you love it to be with them.
A great way to do this is take certain times a week, and do something together that you both love. If you are not in the same city, then give each other a call or do something over the internet (a project or play a game you both love). Internet Social Networks are also a way to stay in touch, but it is important to do it actively and remind yourself (maybe in your daily journal or in your goals, remember habit 3 and 4? :)) I have a lot of friends and since I stay in touch pro-actively with them, my life got richer in the social level and I like it.
Start paying you first: Save and then invest 10% of your income. Get serious about money, because you don't work for money! What you want is that money is working for you. This means that you start taking money serious in your life and start investing in yourself. This is so easily done, that it is embarrassing that so few people know and do this.
The first key however is to spent less than you earn. Most people spent all their money they have each month and most of the time even a little bit more. And so it comes, that there is always too much month left at the end of the money ;)
Of course there are two ways to get free of financial problems. The first is to earn more, and the whole blog is about enabling you to do this as a side effect of successful and fulfilled living. But the other additional way is often overlooked (ok, maybe you know it, then good for you, use it! J ). Paying yourself first means that you save 10% of your income at the start of a month and then invest it into something that fits to you. The investing is a little more difficult, but not that much and I will write about it in this blog later. The one thing you must do now, is that you create a second money-savings-account (something that gives you a little more return as a normal bank-account) and transfer 10% of the monthly income immediately to it. That is your wealth-building machine and you won't touch this money but invest it later. It is one of the best ways to really build wealth.
These are no theoretical suggestions, I live them every day and they are meant to be lived, not only read ;) So learn them and integrate them in your happy life. Or maybe you even have a great supportive habit developed yourself and want to share with others? Please feel free to write it into the comments, I will also comment on it.

People often forget the real purpose of money, which is to help us live a good life. They start running the rat race almost every awake hour and don't find any time to enjoy it. Finding joys in certain things and doing them regularly is important to keep yourself balanced and in perspective.

I want to be happy irrespective of surrounding situations. I want to be happy with all what i have. Does that take time to practice this type of feeling. Any of you are happy in all cases ( except from some really hurting situations)

Brandt Revocable Trust v. United States is a case that any property rights advocate should love—especially if you also happen to be an American history buff. Writing for the majority—which included the entire court, with exception of only Justice Sotomayor—Chief Justice Roberts's eloquent opinion tells a narrative of the American west: "In the early to mid-19th century, America looked west. The period from the Louisiana Purchase in 1803 to the Gadsen Purchase in 1853 saw the acquisition of the western lands that filled out what is now the contiguous United States."
Of course key to settlement and development of the west was the emergent railroad system. Though popular sentiment supported the expansion west and the development of railways in that process, the political ethos of the American people would not have supported publicly funded railway projects of the sort we now see in many metropolitan areas. Accordingly, the federal government supported private railroad companies in other ways—first by giving generous land grants, and later giving more limited "right of ways" to the railroads across public lands. So what does all of this 19th Century history have to do with our current fight for property rights in America?
Well, a lot has happened since Congress passed the Railroad Right-of-Way Act of 1875. This was the Act that gave railroads a "right of way" to build and maintain infrastructure across public lands for the purpose of promoting western settlement and development. In 1942 the Supreme Court explained, in Great Northern R. Co. v. United States, that the 1875 Act gave railroad companies only a limited right to use the subject property—i.e. an easement in the land, which would be extinguished if the railroad ever abandoned its railway. That would mean that the owner holding title the land on which the railroad easement once existed would then own the full and complete title to the land. Indeed, the United States argued as much in the Great Northern R. Co.
But, in Brandt —decided yesterday—the United States took the exact opposite position, arguing that the 1875 Act conveyed something other than an easement, and that upon its abandonment the subject property reverted back to the United States. In other words the United States was staking out a new position in Brandt in a manner that was essentially redefining previously recognized property rights. For the Brandt family who brought the case to the Supreme Court on a petition for certiorari, this was unacceptable because the government was now claiming public ownership of land that it had long ago conveyed to the family. Indeed, the Brandts own the full title to the land subject only to the railroad easement, which is now abandoned.
The NFIB Small Business Center and the Owners Council of America teamed up in this case to defend property rights, making the case for why government should not be able to redefine previously recognized property rights out of existence. Indeed if the United States could get away with redefining previously settled property interests in this case, it may do the same in other cases—as might state or local governments. Government should not be able to take an end-run around constitutional protections for property rights in this manner. Of course that's the big picture issue. But on a practical level the case is of immediate concern to thousands of western landowners—especially ranchers and farmers—who have abandoned railways running across their land. The decision reaffirms what we have been saying all along: if the United States wishes to acquire these lands from the owners who now hold title to the underlying property, it must pay for what it is taking. Or as one columnist summed it up: Supreme Court tells government to take a hike — but not on private property.
On a final note, it is relieving to see the United States called out on taking explicitly contradictory positions on the same legal issues—albeit 72 years later. In previous cases I have observed, with extreme frustration and angst, that the United States has switched its position in the midst of litigation so as to defeat legitimate legal claims. For ordinary citizens–for whom government exists to serve–the doctrine of judicial estopple would prevent us from changing positions during the midst of litigation for expedient reasons; however, in at least some cases the federal government has successfully argued that this equitable principle cannot apply against the United States. That seems unconscionable and patently unjust. This is an issue that I should hope the Court will eventually address in a future case. But, perhaps the Brandt opinion offers further grounds for a citizen to hold the federal government to positions it has previously taken on a given legal issue. What is clear is that once property rights are recognized, no legislative enactment or executive order can outright extinguish that right without raising serious constitutional problems.

The city of Eureka agreed to pay longtime police department employee Suzanne Owsley $150,000 as part of a settlement in her workplace harassment case.
Under an agreement signed by Owsley and City Manager David Tyson in March, Owsley agreed to dismiss her pending civil case with prejudice, which means she cannot file the lawsuit at a different date, in exchange for the settlement amount. The city released the settlement to the Times-Standard late Wednesday after the paper filed a California Public Records Act request.
"Owsley agrees never to commence any legal proceeding or administrative complaint relating to the claims released under this agreement at any time in the future," the agreement read.
The suit -- filed in November 2009 -- alleges that Owsley suffered employment discrimination, harassment, wrongful demotion and the intentional infliction of emotional distress at the hands of former Eureka Police Chief Garr Nielsen and another department employee. Nielsen has since been fired from the city and filed his own suit. Nielsen, who is seeking damages in excess of $10,000, alleges the city violated his contract by failing to give him annual performance reviews, merit pay increases and other benefits.
Owsley's suit sought damages in excess of $25,000.
When asked if the city has to pay for any portion of the $150,000, Adrienne Moran of the Santa Rosa firm Shapiro, Galvin, Shapiro and Moran -- which defended the city in the case -- said that Eureka's insurance carrier, the Redwood Empire Municipal Insurance Fund or REMIF, paid for the settlement.
"REMIF is funded by contributions from each participating city, and REMIF funds were used to fund the $150,000," she wrote in an email.
In addition to the payment, the city will restore the vacation and sick time Owsley used while fighting the case.
"City of Eureka agrees to reinstate Owsley's accrued sick and vacation leave balances to the level each balance was at as of the date that Owsley left on her leave of absence from work on Nov. 21, 2008," the agreement said.
Owsley's attorney Bradford Floyd said the leave time, which he said Owsley took due to the alleged harassment, is valued at a little more than $50,000.
"Per doctor's orders, she was out on leave for nearly a year," he said. "During that year, she used everything she had."
The agreement states that the settlement does not reflect "an admission of any liability whatsoever by either party, who have consistently taken the position that they have no liability whatsoever to the other."
Owsley returned to her job about one year ago, Floyd said.
"Life is good. She's enjoying her time under the new chief," he said. "She's very pleased with everything."

Postgraduate Studies in London - MA International Relations
› Apply Online - Fall 2015 Admissions
The MA in International Relations is dually accredited by the Middle States Commission on Higher Education and validated by The Open University.
The aim of the Master of Arts degree in International Relations at Richmond University is to equip students with in-depth knowledge of the discipline of international relations, key analytical and research skills, together with an opportunity to gain practical experience through an optional internship.
We offer a rigorous curriculum encompassing theoretical and practical developments in the dynamic field of global politics, set in the vibrant context of cosmopolitan London, in an international classroom, which gives graduates distinct advantages in developing vital inter-personal and intercultural communication skills. The programme examines a range of theories and approaches to international relations, questions of international political economy, and offers courses on international diplomatic practice, international law and institutions, studies of specific regions, international migration, media, and many others. The core courses on this programme aim to deconstruct conventional views of post-Cold War and post-9/11 international politics by advancing an interdisciplinary understanding of global politics and employing critical narratives and tools across the sub-disciplines of IR, geared towards innovative interpretations of central questions in the discipline – such as conflict, security, development, agents, structures, power and influence. The MA in International Relations prepares students for further graduate study in the discipline or for careers in the fascinating world of local, national, regional, and international politics, in governmental and non-governmental organisations. Students can choose electives from a variety of courses that are shared with the two other Master's programmes – the MA in International Conflict and Security and the MA in International Development. This approach best reflects the interdisciplinary nature of international relations and provides students with an opportunity to explore a field of interest in greater depth.
Programme Goals
The degree can lead to eventual careers in roles that require articulate, clear thinking individuals with a grasp of contemporary events, including government, international organisations, business, finance and the media. The background of the MA faculty will enable students to develop an appreciation of the nuance in international relations, which, combined with the internship, will help prepare students for further graduate study or careers in related fields.
Successful students will be able to:
- Articulate the various debates within the IR discipline (historical, philosophical, cultural and economic) and comprehend how different theories may or may not be integrated.
- Demonstrate a clear appreciation of the intrinsic relationship between foreign and domestic politics.
- Discern the background to international issues of the day.
- Demonstrate an ideological sophistication by challenging accepted orthodoxy on the basis of new or re-interpreted evidence or new conceptual approaches.
- Critically evaluate the effectiveness of foreign policy processes and diplomacy.
Internships taken by the International Relations Cohort 2011:
- Women to Women Think Tank, London
- United States' Institute for Peace, Washington DC
- Congressional Offices, Washington DC
- Czech Mission to the UN, New York
- House of Commons, London

Deputy Jan O'Sullivan Deputy Jan OSullivan Deputy Jan O'Sullivan asked the Minister for Health and Children her views on adding party drugs such as BZP to the list of controlled substances under the misuse of Drugs Acts in view of their growing proliferation here and of EU proposals; and if she will make a statement on the matter. [25914/08] Deputy Mary Harney Deputy Mary Harney Deputy Mary Harney: The Misuse of Drugs Act 1977 and regulations made thereunder regulate and control the import, export, production, supply and possession of a range of named narcotic drugs and psychotropic substances listed in the Schedules to the Act. Substances are scheduled under the Act in accordance with Ireland's obligations under international conventions and/or where there is evidence that the substances are causing significant harm to public health in Ireland. The list of scheduled substances is kept under review; in particular, my Department reviews any evidence that substances are being abused and are causing significant harm to public health. 213 Benzlpiperazine (BZP) is not currently a scheduled substance under the Misuse of Drugs Act. However, a risk assessment of new psychoactive substances carried out by the European Monitoring Centre on Drugs and Drug Addiction has found that the use of BZP can lead to medical problems even if the long term effects of the substance are still unknown. Against this background, the European Council decided in March 2008 to place BZP under control in accordance with the 1971 UN Convention on Psychotropic Substances. Member States must act as soon as possible, but no later than one year from the date of the decision, to introduce [213] control measures and criminal sanctions. Work is underway in my Department with a view to introducing the necessary control measures here. Dáil Éireann 658 Written Answers. Misuse of Drugs Act. Questions 20080701 | ||||||||||||||||||||||

Number one Oreo Fan |
Stephanie and Mason |
We couldn't let this momentous occasion pass without throwing a party. This week, the Oreo cookie, invented in New York's Chelsea, is having its 100th birthday. With over 491 billion Oreos having been consumed since 1912, it is by far and away the most popular cookie of the 2oth century. And following its introduction in China in 2006, it is now the number one cookie there as well. I spent time last Spring with someone whose passion for Oreo cookies can readily be seen in the picture above. My grandson Mason's days are punctuated with pleas for these great American treats. Since they are inevitably accompanied by a glass of milk and since his phenomenal nanny, Stephanie, keeps the cookies down to a minimum, there's something wholesome about his love of Oreos. Too bad he's yet to taste Andrew's Homemade version of Joanne Chang's deeply chocolate crisps and luscious vanilla cream.

In "Moral Tales," a Tapestry of Faith program
I am only one, but still I am one. I cannot do everything, but still I can do something. And because I cannot do everything, I will not refuse to do something that I can do. — Edward Everett Hale
This session introduces the concept of responsibility. It reinforces the ideas in the seventh Unitarian Universalist Principle, respect for the interdependent web of all existence, by demonstrating the idea that our action or lack of action makes a difference in an interdependent world. It encourages the children to feel empowered to take action when love, faith and conscience call. The session is woven around a folk tale from Thailand and Burma, "Not My Problem." In this story a queen is repeatedly asked to take action on what she considers a matter too small for her attention. She continues to ignore it until the situation grows to the point that her whole kingdom is lost. During the session the children explore the concept and experience of responsibility through acknowledging ways that they already make a difference, considering through role play how to make a difference in real life scenarios, and brainstorming problems that matter to them, and how even small actions on their part promote positive change. Responsibility is added to the Moral Compass.
