How To Go On An Exercise Date
By Health.com
For a lot of people, exercise and dating don't really go well together. Working out is something you do at the gym, either by yourself or in a room full of sweaty classmates. Going on a date, on the other hand, usually involves sitting, eating, watching movies—and maybe a long walk on the beach if you're lucky.
OK, so maybe you're too old for mini golf and batting cages, but there are other ways to enjoy quality time with your sweetie while still being active. (And if you ask me, the batting cages are still a blast too.) Here's our guide to finding—and keeping—a fit fella. To Kiss Or Not To Kiss On The First Date?
Recruit an active partner
If you're single and looking for love, you can better your chances of finding a fitness enthusiast by looking in the right places.
The gym might be a good place to start, but let your interactions happen naturally. If you've ever been hit on by an overbearing meathead while huffing and puffing on the treadmill, you know that fitness-club pickups can be awkward and uncomfortable if not done right. Instead, join classes or clubs with people who have similar active interests, or start hanging out in parks and public places where there's a lot of activity going on. The Secrets Behind Serial Monogamy
Last year a friend of mine met a great guy through online dating, and he recently told her it was her interest in tennis, listed in her profile, that gave him the motivation to first email her. It was a subject they initially bonded over, and now they barely go a weekend without squeezing in a match or two.
If you're really serious about finding someone who shares your passion, check out online dating hubs like Fitness Singles or the multi-community site TangoWire, which features dating groups for cyclists, runners, dancers, weightlifters, yogis, and more.
Or convert your sedentary one
My boyfriend and I take turns teaching each other activities we enjoy. He's coaching me to do pull-ups and "real" push-ups, and I show him new yoga stretches after we run. It's helping us both learn new skills and gets us more involved in each others' lives.
Even when one of us isn't in the mood to get off the couch, we can usually strike a deal: He'll buy me dinner at the new restaurant I've been craving, for example, but only if we walk all the way there and back instead of taking the subway. Could You Live and Work Together?
Don't let differences get in your way
I've tried running side-by-side with my boyfriend. It doesn't work. He annoys the heck out of me with his "helpful" advice about my breathing, my stride, and my pace. Plus, I run much slower than he does, so he has to either run ahead or he doesn't get as good a workout as he should.
We've come up with a good compromise, though: We jog to the park together, stretch, and then set off on our separate runs (and we savor that alone time!). We meet up at the end to run some stairs together, and then cool down and walk home together.

Rockwell Automation: Rockwell Automation: Rockwell Automation: Data transfer engine
ProSoft Technology's new Message Manager (ILX56-MM) module is a multi-system data transfer engine that resides in a single slot of a Rockwell Automation ControlLogix chassis.
For packaging applications, plant automation, and manufacturing where end users frequently utilize customized OEM equipment in conjunction with their overall process automation schemes, the Message Manager provides the unique benefit of allowing end users to transfer PLC data from OEM equipment to a Rockwell Automation PAC/PLC without modifying the OEM's code. This eliminates the need to access the OEM source code, which may not be available. It also eliminates concerns about affecting the OEM's machine operation and/or owning and maintaining other PLCs' programming software.

I'm just gonna cut to the chase here.
Lead- Zoroark
Nature: Timid (+Spe, -Atk)
Ability: Illusion (Comes in disguised as the last Pokemon in your party)
Item: Focus Sash
EVs: 4 Atk / 252 Sp. Atk / 252 Spe
~Dark Pulse
I love this Pokemon. It comes in disguised as another Pokemon, so it has that element of surprise. Taunt makes sure no one can put in entry hazards (Stealth Rock, Spikes, etc.). Dark Pulse for STAB, Flamethrower for coverage (especially against Ferrothorn) and Extrasensory against Fighting-types if Zoroark is ever revealed.
Baton Passer- Gorebyss
Nature: Calm (+Sp. Def, -Atk)
Ability: Swift Swim (Speed increases if it's raining)
Item: White Herb (Returns any reduced stat back to normal once)
EVs: 252 HP / 24 Sp. Def / 232 Spe
~Iron Defense
~Shell Smash
~Baton Pass
Shell Smash is awesome. Sharply raises Atk, Sp. Atk and Spe. Unfortunately, it lowers both defenses. That's what the White Herb's for. Iron Defense raises Defense and Surf for STAB and so Gorebyss isn't Taunt bait. Baton Pass is to pass on the changes to a sweeper.
Revenge Killer/Scout- Scizor
Nature: Adamant (+Atk, -Sp. Atk)
Ability: Technician (Moves with 50 or less base power get a 50% boost)
Item: Occa Berry (Weakens any Fire-type attack once)
EVs: 8 HP / 252 Atk / 248 Spe
~Bullet Punch
Bullet Punch and Pursuit get a boost from Technician and the former is a STAB priority move. The latter's power is doubled when a Pokemon switches out, making no one switches out with impunity. Superpower is for Steel-types, especially Heatran, Magnezones with HP Fire and Ferrothorn. U-Turn is for quick getaways.
Annoyer- Sableye
Nature: Careful (+Sp. Def, -Sp. Atk)
Ability: Prankster (Gives +1 priority to all non-damaging moves)
Item: Leftovers (Restores some HP every turn)
EVs: 252 HP / 120 Def / 136 Sp. Def
~Night Shade
Will-O-Wisp is to cause damage against anything that's not a Fire-type or has Guts. Taunt is to stop people from setting up anything against it. Recover keeps it alive, and Night Shade will always deal 100 damage, taking out most Pokemon in a few hits.
Physical Sweeper- Salamence
Nature: Naive (+Spe, -Sp. Def)
Ability: Moxie (Raises Attack 1 stage after every KO)
Item: Life Orb (Take some HP in exchange for powering up attacks)
EVs: 252 Atk / 4 Sp. Def / 252 Spe
~Dragon Dance
~Dragon Claw
~Fire Blast
Dragon Dance to raise Attack and Speed, Dragon Claw for a powerful STAB that doesn't confuse you (aka Outrage) and Earthquake and Fire Blast for coverage. Moxie raises Mence's Attack after every KO, making his attacks even stronger.
Special Sweeper- Gengar
Nature: Timid (+Spe, -Atk)
Ability: Levitate (Makes it immune to Ground-type attacks)
Item: Life Orb
EVs: 4 HP / 252 Sp. Atk / 252 Spe
~Shadow Ball
~Giga Drain
~Focus Blast
~Hidden Power [Ice]
Shadow Ball for STAB and Giga Drain to take out Bulky Waters. Focus Blast for Ferrothorn and Dark-types and Wide Lens boost it's accuracy a bit. HP Ice gets rid of Flying- and Dragon-types.
So here you go. Make any adjustments you like. I'm trying to avoid using legendaries/Ubers, but if you want to add them in, go ahead. :)

Libby is looking for a book that she's been searching for, and honestly, I was skeptical it was a romance. Libby swears it is. Read on, and experience douchebag hero!
I read it ages and ages ago, when I was wee and young (possibly somewhere in those muddled and traumatic teenage years). It was a historical romance set in Russia, I think, with a hero who is deliciously hot, but suffers from ennui. Like, chronically. I remember that he either was married or gets married, and makes it a habit to go gallivanting around Russia having affairs while his wife is left at ye olde homestead to pine for him.
At some point she gets pregnant and he is either wildly turned on or can't give a damn. I don't remember. But I do remember that there may have been a dubious sort of ending in which he promises to TRY not to wander, cheat, and ignore her, but no guarantees because he gets majorly bored and NOTHING helps.
I *said* it was a dubious ending, and my memory is all swiss cheese.
I came across the Lisa Kleypas's Prince of Dreams, but I don't *think* that's the one. I'm not sure. So, hoping you or the other gals who swing by the site could help out.
Thanks so much in advance.
I read this and wrote back, "WOW. Are you sure this was a romance? This hero sounds like a real piece of doodoo!" And Libby replied, "LOL! I remember being very conflicted by the ending, disappointed even. And I definitely remember the bodice ripper cover."
Oh, Lordy. I bet it was fuchsia. Anyone recall this book? And does the wife kick him in the ennui at some point?

Maintaining an appropriate reimbursement level is an important step in assuring access to plasma protein therapies, which are highly complex biologics, for Medicare beneficiaries suffering from rare, chronic and genetic diseases and disorders including primary immunodeficiency diseases, hemophilia and other bleeding disorders and alpha-1 antitrypsin deficiency, a genetic lung disease. Plasma protein therapies refer to plasma-derived and recombinant blood clotting factors, as well as alpha-1 proteinase inhibitor and immune globulins.
Additionally, the CMS' proposal to continue to insufficiently reimburse plasma protein therapies could make innovative advances, such as a recently approved biologics license application for a coagulation therapy used to treat a disorder afflicting only 300 people in the United States, cost prohibitive in the future.
The APC Panel's recommendation is an important step on the way to preserving patient access to lifesaving therapies, and PPTA urges CMS in 2010 to at a minimum restore the payment level to ASP +6 percent, which is consistent with reimbursement of these drugs in the physician office setting.
Go online for a copy of PPTA's written testimony, or contact Kym Kilbourne at 443-995-2102 or email her at firstname.lastname@example.com. More information about the Plasma Protein Therapeutics Association (PPTA) can be found at www.pptaglobal.org.

Mila Kunis in G-Star Midge Jacket in Comfort Manson
Mila Kunis headed through the airport to catch a flight to NYC. Mila is busy filming her latest film, Blood Ties, with Gerard Butler and Zoe Saldana. We haven't seen her in a lot of films lately, it seems as though she's been taking time off, so I'm glad to see her back on the big screen.
I love that we see Mila in so many different brands. For her flight, she wore G-Star's Midge jacket in comfort manson with a pair of dark wash jeans. I'd love to see Mila try out a pair of colored jeans or even something with a pattern! Join the discussion about G-Star in the forums here.

Mila Kunis in Current/Elliott
Mila Kunis was seen arriving on set of Blood Ties in Brooklyn, NY. Mila, who is busy filming with Clive Owen, stars in the film about two brothers who face off over organized crime in 1970′s Brookyln.
Considering the film is set in the 70′s must be why we've seen Mila out in so many pairs of flares recently. Before changing into her flares, Mila wore a pair of Current/Elliott boyfriend jeans and a casual sweatshirt while arriving on set. Buy Current/Elliott online at Singer22.com.
Mila Kunis in AG Adriano Goldschmied
Mila Kunis was seen arriving on set of Fox News Upfront in a pair of AG Adriano Goldschmied jeans with a slouchy gray sweater.
Mila attended the event in Central Park's Wollman skating rink, which was a presentation for advertisers and featured many of Fox's biggest stars, including the cast of Glee, and Britney Spears, following the announcement that she would be a judge on the upcoming season of The X Factor.

In Times of Drought: Nine Economic Facts about Water in the United States
The water crisis is as much an economic issue as it is an environmental one, and it demands focused national attention. This Hamilton Project policy memo presents nine economic facts about water in the United States, focusing on relevant background context to the water crisis as well as on supply and demand issues. This memo underscores three topics: the occurrence of drought in the United States, the importance of water to the U.S. economy, and barriers to efficient uses of water.

Knowing Assassin's Creed would be coming out on the PC, I made a conscious effort to avoid the console versions for the past several months so that I could have an unspoiled experience on my platform of choice. I'm finally having that experience, and it was worth it, but one thing has been bothering me: it's impossible to stop playing. And not in the "Just five more minutes" way that Sins of a Solar Empire is impossible to stop playing. Instead, AC makes you jump through almost a dozen hoops just to get from the action back to your desktop. It literally takes almost as many steps to quit this game as it does for an alcoholic to get off the sauce.

The early bird gets the worm, sometimes life gives you lemons, we have all heard these expressions before, and they are hardly ever true. Well, today, the early bird got a very interesting announcement on the BitcoinTalk forums, and, if true, those lemons will turn into oranges very quickly.
I'll start making sense from this point onward, i promise. Crypto Industries announced the first Scrypt FPGA hardware available for consumers. I'm not saying they are the first company to claim they have Scrypt FPGA hardware, but these guys might actually be the first to deliver the goods.
Crypto Industries is represented on BitcoinTalk by two members you may or may not have heard of : Koolio ; who is also a moderator on BTC-E and runs his own Escrow website, and Motaboy, whom i unfortunately never have spoken to before. But enough with the small talk, let's take a look at the announced goodies!
Three Scrypt FPGA miners have been announced , running respectively at 1 MH/s, 5 MH/s and 10 MH/s, which are very promising speeds. We'll go a bit more in-depth for each unit in just a moment. All units are equipped with a Raspberry Pi, which will execute the mining software. The software itself will be a modified version of CGMiner, which most of us are accustomed to .
All units are named after Egyptian gods, and have a few similarities on the in- and outside. Every unit will run on multiple Ra boards with Xilinx Artix 7 FGPA chips, are equipped with DDR3 1066 MHz RAM, and a Raspberry Pi controller. Yes, that's right, external memory.
On the exterior, all units come with a 4 line LCD display, which will show various stats such as mining speed, share count, temperatures and also your mining status. Temperatures are expected to be at 45-50°C, give or take a few degrees of course.
As far as connectivity goes , there is an Ethernet connector present, but you can also use a WiFi USB stick if preferred. Storage-wise, there is an internal SD card slot, but you can expand this with a USB flash drive if needed. Also important to notice : there is a 1 year return to base warranty period included in your purchase.
The 1 MH/s unit is called Isis. Expected weight of the unit is around 7 kilograms, with dimensions of 48.5cm x 24cm x 9 cm. A gold rated Power Supply is included in the purchase, and power consumption should be around 150W.
The 5 MH/s unit, called Osiris, shares a lot of the similarities. It's a slightly heavier unit, weighing in at 8 kg compared to 7 kg, and the dimensions are slightly different as well : 48.5 cm x 24 cm x 18 cm . Now, as you would expect with a unit that runs at five time the hashing power, it also requires a higher power usage , and the included PSU is a 750W one.
Last but not least, we have the 10 MH/s unit, called Horus. The most powerful, yet also the heaviest of the three units at 10 kilograms, sporting dimensions of 48.5 cm x 24 cm x 27 cm.
As expected, 10 MH/s will draw a lot of wattage, however, at an estimated power usage of 1500W, this is still only a fraction of what regular GPU's would draw.
An important quote you might be interested in : "All units will be able to mining both Litecoin and Feathercoin from the start, with future Scrypt based coins being added in following updates. There will be various ways of updating user settings including preformatted files through USB and IP access."
A final bit of information I myself am very excited about : Crypto Industries is located in the UK. For us Europeans, this is a blessing. There is also a meetup planned in London, where the unit will be demonstrated. As the company is located in London, this seems a very strategic choice.
These are all the details available right now, but we hope to have more details (and hopefully some pictures) in the near future for all of you.
Should we manage to get our hands on one (or more) units, we will gladly write a review for all of our loyal readers.

Felted Crochet Slippers
By: Bernat
Use an easy crochet pattern like this one from Bernat Yarns to make some comfortable crochet slippers. This pattern uses felt for a fun design for you and your friends. Your feet can be happy in this warm design.
- Bernat Felting Wool (75 g / 2.6 oz)
- 2 (2-3) balls of #94012 (Meadow).
- Size 6.5 mm (U.S. K/10½) crochet hook or size needed to obtain gauge.
10 sc and 12 rows = 4 ins [10 cm].
How to Felt:
- Using low water level, run a Hot/Cold cycle for 5 to 15 min. Add a pair of old jeans for agitation.
- Add 2 tablespoons of baking soda for a small load. After one cycle, check for size. Repeat if necessary.
- Run through the rinse and dry spin cycle.
- Do not use a clothes dryer.
- Lay felted piece onto a dry towel, away from direct heat or sunlight.
- Shape piece to correct measurements.
- If an edge ripples, baste a thread through the edge and gather in. Remove the thread after the felting is dry.
Note: Slipper is worked from toe to heel.
Ch 19 (21-23).
1st row: (RS). 1 sc in 2nd ch from hook. 1 sc in each ch across. Turn. 18 (20-22) sc.
2nd and alt rows: Ch 1. 1 sc in each sc across. Turn.
3rd row: Ch 1. 2 sc in first sc. 1 sc in each sc to last sc. 2 sc in last sc. Turn.
5th row: As 3rd row. 22 (24-26) sc.
Work 4 (5-6) row(s) even. Fasten off. Place marker at each end of
last row.
With RS of work facing, miss first 3 sc. Join yarn with sl st to next sc. Ch 1. 1 sc in each of first 16 (18-20) sc. Turn. Leave rem sts unworked.
Work 21 (23-25) rows even. With WS tog, fold last row in half and sew heel seam using a flat seam.
Finishing: With WS tog, fold Slipper in half, matching markers. Sew instep seam. Fold toe flat, having instep seam at center. Sew toe seam.
- Record all the measurements and changes before and after felting. You will be able to adjust the method to produce proper results.
- Always test a sample. Different colored yarns may felt differently.
- Colorfastness can be affected by very hot water.
- Any knit fabric that has been properly felted becomes very dense and matted.

Felting is a process, not a product. The wool "felts" when you wet it and it is hard to predict the amount of shrinkage of any product. So crochet the piece, wash it in hot water and use a form to make sure it will not shrink too much when it dries. Covering a posterboard cut out of your foot to retain the shape may help. You need to know that they will continue to shrink until the yarn fibers can't shrink so be careful in laundering it.
okay I do have difficulty with patterns so this is may just be me - my first attempt has yeilded a slipper that doesn't fit - I am thinking it is due to the "sew instep seam" if possible could someone help me with what that means-or does the felting make these fit - although I am unable to felt as I do not have "felting wool" sadly this is suppose to be very easy, so I know it has to be me and mis understanding the patterns - all that said, and admitted to I sure would love a little help keep crafting all
@ midnightnassau - you crochet the slippers with the felting wool and when you finish you proceed with the steps to felt them. That's why there are the important points to know at the beginning of the pattern as felting will shrink them but also make them warmer. Acrylic yarn does not felt and acrylic/wool mixes go strange so 100% wool is best but they all felt a bit differently depending how they are woven and what they are woven from. Hope I've made this clear enough.
I hate when I miss an important step in a pattern..........where do the crochet piece and the felt get together? Is the crocheted part crocheted right to the felt or is the felt added later and if so, how are they joined? Either I'm an idiot or the pattern assumes I know certain things (which, obviously I don't) or a third option........that step just isn't in here.

NEW YORK, Aug. 31 /PRNewswire-FirstCall/ -- Weight Watchers (NYSE: WTW) announced today the start of the second annual Lose For Good campaign, created to raise awareness about two global epidemics - obesity and hunger. Between August 30th and October 17th, as Weight Watchers Members and Online subscribers lose weight, the company will donate up to $1 million to two hunger fighting organizations - Share Our Strength and Action Against Hunger. Last year, the campaign impacted more than 250,000 children and families domestically and actually represented the difference between life and death for more than 6,000 malnourished children abroad.
This year, Jenny McCarthy, a passionate activist and actress, has joined the campaign to generate awareness about this important cause. As a campaign ambassador, McCarthy will participate in media appearances and star in a public service announcement encouraging Americans to get healthier while also helping to end hunger. In addition, McCarthy helped Weight Watchers kick off Lose For Good by participating in a ceremony where the company donated a "Good Food Garden" to the Arroyo Head Start center in Altadena, CA, run by the Center for Community and Family Services, Inc. The Arroyo Head Start center serves underprivileged children in the community and until now did not have funding to build a sustainable garden for the kids to use for educational and nutritional purposes.
"I grew up in a home where $5 could make a difference between having a family dinner or not. This is a real issue that needs attention and I'm proud to help spread the word about the Lose For Good campaign, which encourages people to get healthy while, at the same time giving back," says McCarthy, who lost weight with Weight Watchers after the birth

- Title: The Sorcerer's Plague
- Author: Discount Cafergot, David B. Coe
- Genre: High Fantasy
- Year: 2007
The Sorcerer's Plague from David B. Coe is the first book in a planned trilogy entitled The Blood of the Southlands, 500mg Cafergot, which takes place in a different section of a world already established in Coe's previous series, Cafergot canada, The Winds of the Forelands. While some characters and basic information is carried over from Coe's previous series, familiarity with these elements is not necessary to the enjoyment of The Sorcerer's Plague, Cafergot coupon.
The Southlands are divided along racial and clan lines, Cafergot uk, and much of the back-story of this book goes into describing the various divisions and antagonisms between its competing peoples. No love is lost between the Qirsi, white-haired and pale-eyed sorcerers, and the Eandi, dark-haired people incapable of magic, Discount Cafergot. Between these two racial groups are the Mettai and the Y'Qatt, people that inhabit the Companion Lakes Region in which most of the book's action takes place, 750mg Cafergot. These two groups blur the distinction between the races as the Y'Qatt are Qirsi who refuse, 20mg Cafergot, for religious reasons, to use any magic, and the Mettai are Eandi who are actually powerful magicians -- only the Mettai use earth and blood magic rather than the Qirsi's channeling of their life essence for purposes of sorcery, 250mg Cafergot. The competing abilities and philosophies of these groups are fertile ground for the plot. 40mg Cafergot, The pestilence for which the book is named is the central factor of The Sorcerer's Plague, and a great deal of the narrative follows the plague and its architect, a bitterly vengeful old woman named Lici, Cafergot overseas, throughout the Companion Lakes Region as village after village falls to the horrible ailment. Discount Cafergot, The pestilence kills by unleashing a person's magical power in such a way that it cannot be controlled, causing massive devastation as torrential elemental invocations destroy entire villages. Cafergot mexico, Lici, who as a young girl herself witnessed the pestilence consume her own people, weaves the fatal illness into baskets that she peddles from market to market, 100mg Cafergot, sowing destruction in her wake. 1000mg Cafergot, But amongst Lici's adopted people, the Mettai of Kirayde village, one man slowly uncovers the truth about her with the aid of an old journal, 10mg Cafergot. Besh, Cafergot australia, the most interesting and appealing character in the book, is in his sixties, wise but not without his own failings, Cafergot japan, a man motivated enough by the horrible news from the countryside to swear a blood oath to stop Lici. Cafergot usa, Sirj, his son-in-law with whom he has a history of unfair treatment, joins him, Cafergot paypal, and the two set off to find Lici. The other major characters of this book are a pair of Qirsi from the Forelands, foreigners to the world of the Southlands, who travel to the Companion Lakes Region and settle uneasily amongst a Qirsi clan, Discount Cafergot. Cafergot craiglist, By the novel's end one of these Qirsi, Grinsa, a powerful sorcerer known as a Weaver, 50mg Cafergot, sets off with a party to investigate the plague and, 30mg Cafergot, hopefully, bring it to an end.
The Sorcerer's Plague reads like a set-up piece for the remainder of the trilogy, 150mg Cafergot, and most of its 400 pages simply deal with characters going from one place to another. Cafergot us, My chief criticism of this is that it takes about 250 pages before the plot really starts moving in interesting ways, and to me the book seemed about a third as long as it needed to be. Readers more accustomed to fast-paced fantasies full of adventure and tension my balk at the languid pace and the interludes of little-to-no dramatic significance, Cafergot ebay, whereas those who prefer large epics that unfold at a more stately rate may find this aspect of the book more of an asset than a fault. Discount Cafergot, I do think in many respects it's a question of what exactly one wants from a fantasy novel, and questions of pace tend to fall more in the realm of personal taste. Cafergot india, What Coe does really well is create a fantasy world that isn't about good and evil and black and white, but about competing interests and antagonisms based on history, race, 200mg Cafergot, and class -- just like in the real world. The plague itself is also an interesting concept and is well presented, and Lici's reasons for doing what she does grow plausibly from her character, as do the motives of the other major players. While I may have preferred it to be leaner and fraught with a bit more tension, Coe's clean prose, reliable characterization, and believable dialog where never at fault for my impatience with the story. As the opening of something larger, one can hope that the momentum generated toward the end of the book will continue in future volumes. And at the end of the day, no piece of a trilogy can really be judged in isolation, so the relative success of The Sorcerer's Plague will ultimately depend upon how Coe handles the story in the two remaining volumes.

There is also a significant benefit of buying some thing from a navy excess retail store over the regular traditional store for the reason that the caliber of garments and thus gear is much more well made. This is due to the products that an army surplus store supplies for the normal people is usually made for much more severe and harder outdoor environments. For example, the U.S Army issues its soldiers gear which only will last for five years after which should be disposed of. This high standard of production creates fantastic high quality items and as such has earned a solid good reputation for over enduring and also over enduring current and a lot more costly comparable products. Despite the fact army surplus items are pre-owned, standard end-user alternatives have a hard time matching army surplus in relation to the price point together with high quality products. This means the typical consumer already has faith in army excess due to its high quality coupled with dependability.
Troops need to have a large amount of equipment together with clothes on their mission which means the defense force makes a range of goods and so army excess to deal with this demand. It is possible to purchase items such as outdoor jackets, trousers, safety equipment, camouflage nets, sleeping-bags and also other hiking related equipment at a small percentage of the price of what you will buy it new. Quite a few military surplus stores can source goods straight from militaries from around the globe. Because of this there is a wide array of navy products to choose all of which will regularly be reproduced since new products are usually brought into replace the products which have gone by their life-span of old.You're bound to discover a little something unique and fascinating in regards to buying a pre-used bit of army products. This makes it hard to weary in particular when things have a great story to them. More often than not you will find that the things available for purchase from a military surplus store or retailer is from the very Fifties or even older, they are just about antiques yet still work and also perform the job that it was primarily developed for.
How frequently have you observed a person wearing any camo piece of clothing? At this time the look is definitely trendy with many type of celebs wearing it. The design and style encompasses a number of things, such as swiss camo jackets, british woodland trousers, dutch swiss socks, the entire list continues on. Navy fashion is really a phenomena that for modern terms has been persistently involved with the many youth cultures of modern culture.
Nevertheless, there are some problems that you ought to watch out for. The caliber of army style differs from the manufacturer for the nation of produce. The very best by far which is better than most with regards to my modest viewpoint is by the German army - this particular army gives their own soldiers, so it will be worth your while to help keep a lookout for. It is because a lot of money will be invested in researching the best equipment for their troops. If you can, look to obtain this and that in addition of genuine U.S army clothing. It really is pretty much a big deal.

I live in northeast Ohio where Demjanjuk also lives - or lived. Almost everyone here feels that he has been railroaded. He has feigned illness to keep from being deported, but what person of that age wouldn't try everything in his power to avoid another unjust prosecution? I feel sorry for him if he is innocent - which appears to be the case. He can't go back to the U.S. Where will an old man go being all alone in the world?
Demjanjuk was acquitted of these crimes by the Supreme court of Israel. His US citizenship was restored only to be taken away again. At what point does obsession with prosecution become persecution? In this case, that point has been reached and passed.
I have always wondered why justice is so hypocritical when it comes to victims of the Nazis versus victims of the Japanese. The most heinous criminals of Japanese Unit 731 hand over their ill-gotten data, extracted from the 10,000 poor souls who had their limbs frozen off, who were thrown into boiling vats, who were injected with anthrax, smallpox and venom, who were force-fed cholera germs and liquid mustard gas and they get a PARDON from the Allied Supreme Command under General MacArthur. Meanwhile, an eighty year old suspected former camp guard is hounded to death. Is there any justice in this world????
"demonstrative remorse" - ha-ha! Why not call things what they are: hypocricy! Private jet, expensive judicial proceedings - and all that to convict an elderly car builder! Ostensibly - of non-German nationality. Where is the "big fish"?
If I were a "young German" the article writes about - I would begin to hate the procecutors, not the defendant. These mindless procecutors are actually helping anti-semits, because for them it would be very easy to move the blame away from truly murderous procecutors to truly innocent Jews.
This persecution by the left is proof that Ukrainians are still considered "Untermenschen" - the Marxists degraded them to justify their genocide in 1932 and the Germans (yes, they were socialists) degraded them to justify their genocide in 1941 (8 million Ukrainians died in WWII).
As a matter of fact, there are no new charges or new evidence. The "ID card" and the "confession" were supplied by the KGB for the Israeli Supreme Court trial - the card was deemed a forgery by the leading forensics lab for such documents and the fellow who confessed to being at Sobibor "with Demyanyuk" apparently "died"...after signing it.
None of the Sobibor witnesses said he was there - one prisoner who did the wash for all the guards was emphatic that he could ID all the guards and was equally emphatic that Demjanjuk was not there.
The US prosecutors have knowingly destroyed evidence that would have kept this man out of jail - in one laughable incident, they disposed of exculpating documents by throwing it in the dumpster at a nearby McDonalds.
There will be a terrible reckoning for this someday.
There is no proof at all that John had anything to do with the murder of Jews. An Israeli court free him because they realized had been prosecuted the USA's Office of Special Investigation using forged evidence. The corrupt OSI was found to have committed prosecutorial misconduct in his case and his citizenship was restored. Amazingly, the same liars at the OSI were given permission to once again prosecute John Demjanjuk, this time based on "new evidence" they unearthed in Germany. Some of the 'evidence' that the OSI put forth to 'prove' that he was a war criminal included changing his name and the 'fact' that he had a scar under his arm which surely was used to remove an SS tattoo.
In fact, Ivan Demjanjuk changed his name to John Demjannjuk when he applied for citizenship. It should be noted that 'Ivan' is simply the English form of the Ukrainian 'John'. That would be like saying 'Pierre' changed his name to 'Peter' to conceal his identity. Doesn't make sense does it. Had he wanted to conceal his identity he would have changed his name to a very common name and surname such as John Smith, or perhaps Paul Doe. Changing your name from a Slavic 'Ivan' to an Anglo 'John' is not concealing your identity it's simply a way of trying to fit into a North American Culture. Again, had he wanted to conceal his identity, above all else he would have Changed his SURNAME Demjanjuk to something completely different and unrecognizable.
There are two things to best understand about the scar on his arm. First, other than the OSI 'experts', no other medical professionals have been able to identify a scar under his arm. The OSI claims there are and that appears to be sufficient grounds to have him deported.
John Demjanjuk was framed by a group of 'haters' who run the USA's OSI. They were sure he was "Ivan the Terrible" and sent him to the gallows in Israel. To Israel's everlasting show of 'true integrity' that country's Supreme Court unanimously ruled that he had been falsely convicted by a lower court. There was too much compelling evidence which proved he was innocent and they released him. John Demjanjuk's defense had remained consistent from the beginning - "I never was at Treblinka" (note: that was the camp in which Ivan the Terrible murdered innocent people).
Nonetheless, the well paid 'haters' at the OSI did not want to lose their cushy jobs (USA Taxpayer funded) and decided to again frame poor John. This time they are just as sure as the first time that he is guilty of murdering Jews. Again, poor John provides the same defense as the first time - "I never killed anyone during the war, I nothing more a prisoner of war".
Had there been a 1% chance that John had killed even one Jew, the Israeli government would have tried him again; instead they publicly stated that they would not engage in "double jeopardy". The OSI well paid government employees are desperate to save their taxpayer paid jobs and are not going to let go of John. Frankly, these incompetent fools would never find employment anywhere else and need to keep the 'Holocaust' in the headlines in order to keep their cushy jobs. They do not care that they are ruining an innocent man's life. The OSI appears above the law, and accountable to nobody but themselves.
I'm not a conspiratory theorist either but rather I have been able to separate media hype from facts. My late uncle survived the last three months of the war in Dachau concentration camp. He was a Christian who was sent there for not having travel documents while being transported from one forced work detail to another. He once said that it was a good thing the war ended when it did because due to this very poor health he would not have survived another month. My father (uncle's brother) was shot by the Nazi's for a similar infraction and although managed to survive, the injury causes him immense pain to this day. Both my uncle and father were outraged at how the OSI has been able to pursue innocent John. Maybe it's time for more people to speak in his defense.
If he is guilty, IF, let's not jump to conviction here. But if he is guilty, I hope they strip him, shave him, beat him, starve him and work him to death.
It may sound cruel and I do not think other war criminals should be punished that way, especially ones that have come clean with their involvement and past, but this man moved on to make a nice life for himself. What gives him the right to live a long and good life and not the inmates of Sobibor.
My family (non-Jewish) directly suffered the consequences of Nazi German occupation rule in Poland, but also that of Soviet communism (the only survivors of our extended family were my father and his mother). Its a sad fact that whereas Nazi criminals have, at least to a degree, been pursued by various countries since 1945, little or nothing has been done about their communist counterparts. The unanswered question is WHY?
It would be nice to read that Sobibor was in "Nazi occupied Poland" - there is so much confusion about Polish Death Camps etc - it is probably assumed by authors, reporters etc. that every sane person knows the they were German Camps on occupied Polish soil, but such mental shortcuts lead to those terrible mistakes which are very painful for the Poles.
Plase be more sensitive.
Granted, Germany did not thoroughly root out anywhere near as many accused of criminal acts during WWII as they could (and should) have. Too many lived open, comfortable lives in post-WWII Germany and elsewhere. However, the German acknowledgement of its criminal wartime actions and its backing that up with monetary compensation to victims stands in stark contrast to the never-ending denial and national amnesia of wrongdoing on the part of the Japan for its brutality preceding and during WWII. No mea culpas there...
It is very fine that Germany tries to put Demjanjuk on trial for his actions - if it indeed he is guilty. But as important as it is to bring the big fish to justice, it is disgraceful that German officialdom to this day continues to shield members of the little death squads who assasinated and terrorised civilians in occupied countries. Too many of these have evaded justice as Germany has declined to extradite its citizens to stand trial in other European countries. Some of these people still live, and continue to enjoy the protection of German authorities, even in the face of European arrest warrants. The pursuit of Demjanjuk would seem so much more appropriate if Germany would only apply this same kind of zeal to seeing justice done where its own citizens are involved.

So trying to always stay ahead of next year Ive been working on my lists for next year Im pretty sure I have my main crops down but still debating/changing more intense heat ones
Ive grown tons of different habs but for nuclear's its only been Bhuts(both yellow and red) and Butch T's. Now my goal for next year is have a variety of different heats/flavors/colors so far heres where Im at... Pots Red Bhut Jolokia
Ground: Congo Trinidad
now the ones in the pots they'll be 2-6 plants(I think) and the ones in the ground will be 25-50(although Im rethinking that completely) Im also trying to avoid things that are two similar in shape and color, though I know they'll be some where I can't so whats the best tasting nuclear youve had? how do you compare the taste between them? |
Follow-Up Postings:
regarding taste of nuclears: I don't know, never tasted one. I have eaten them, just never tasted one. Once the heat hits, i could have a lump of dog crap in my mouth and I wouldn't know it. Bruce |
Hi Homefry, Not to side track you from your planning, but what thinking goes into what you put in pots vs the ground? Is it the quantity you want to grow or temperature requirements? For instance, my 3 red Bhut Jolokia plants are 4 feet tall and have only produced one pod in 3 months because of 95 plus temperatures. I wish I had them in pots the whole time or employed shade clothing. What is your temperature range where you live for most of the summer? Daryll |
- Posted by homefry319 5b Nebraska (My Page) on Tue, Aug 28, 12 at 14:30
@Bruce haha, you can taste them once you get past the heat, they are actually filled with flavor @Daryll basically its numbers, I'd love to put all of my hots into pots but with the amount of plants(1800-2200 peppers next year) we have vs the time/labor + cost its not worth it, does it hurt production? Id say Im iffy about it for some things, but I know in the past my superhot/nuclear's have always produced better in pots temperature here varies a bit summers its 75 - 100 mostly on the high end(this summer its been way hotter) but every one of my peppers sweet to hot all are doing extremely well The nuclears also will be overwintered/moved around which is part of why they are in pots as well I only plan on doing 2-6(maybe 8) plants of each Im just not sure theres enough of a market for them locally and until I can access a commercial kitchen it'll be hard to make products with... I mean even for the superhots I think I'll have wayyyy to many plants(25-50 per type) 50 plants per row. I've actually been racking my brain with it |

I decided to add bahamian goat pepper and TS chocolate still debating on doing a TS butch t or 7pod Jonah |
Home fry. I think you have a good list of nuclears. I do agree eating them fresh they are all so hot there is very little time to savor the flavor. But made into powders and sauces you can get a good variety of flavor. The ts mouroga and the 7 pod primo are very similiar in flavor. So you could elemenate one or the other. The yellow bhut was never very hot( at least the ones I have had ) so you could eliminate that one as well. Best powdered pepper is the Douglah. My favorite pepper is the yellow 7( same as yellow brain IMO have both growing) . If I had to grow just one pepper that would be it. Great in any form you eat it. As for the habs it looks like you have a nice medly of flavors. I would pick Jonah over Butch T for taste. Both are lethal in heat. |
One thing I'm not clear on. Are you planning for eating, or for market? |
- Posted by homefry319 5b Nebraska (My Page) on Wed, Aug 29, 12 at 19:57
@romy6 thank you, the yellow bhuts I have this year are pretty hot a few of the customers said they were hotter than my reds, Ive tried both(raw) and think they were about the same intensity, I did get a bit more of citrus flavor from the yellows. Good to know about the primo/morouga, I was thinking Jonah as I have a few scorps already @DMForcier both everything we grow I have a use for if not I dont grow it, Ill also process it into stuff powders, sauces, etc for personal use |
Well, for market I'd say go for name and for appearance. "Trinidad Scorpion" or "Congo Black" should sell themselves on name alone. Likewise bumpy, warty pods that look (and are) evil. Chocolate colors. Christmas bells. You get the idea. I don't know enough about weaponized fruits to make particular suggestions, though. Good luck ! |
- Posted by homefry319 5b Nebraska (My Page) on Thu, Aug 30, 12 at 11:34
@DMForcier yup names and color, thats part of why I was being picky on having to many of one color as I want people to be attracted to the variety of the display Made a few modifications to my list(getting closer to being final) now its not including other sweet/semi hot pepper, I sitll need to find 1 more trial(10 plants) thinking something on the lower hab scale Pots: Ground: |

A swarm of Thalia democratica salps. Photograph by David Wrobel, Visuals Unlimited
Published February 23, 2012
A giant swarm of gelatinous sea creatures has been captured in 3-D—part of a new study that aims to help researchers better understand how blooms of organisms affect the ocean's carbon cycle.
During a 2008 research cruise, scientists imaged a massive gathering of a type of salp—a barrel-shaped, jellyfish-like organism. Such aggregations occur periodically off southeastern Australia in response to annual blooms of tiny plants called phytoplankton, the salps' prey.
Study leader Jason Everett knew that springtime was the right time to be on the lookout for salp explosions, he said by email.
Even so, "we were extremely lucky—from the first net we put down right through to the last, we were getting thousands of salps," said Everett, of the Fisheries & Marine Environmental Research Facility at the University of South Wales in Australia.
Transparent except for their guts, salps are difficult to see—especially the species studied, the one- to ten-millimeter-long Thalia democratica. (See more pictures of translucent marine animals.)
Everett has swum in a salp swarm, and he described it as being like "swimming through a pool of jelly balls."
"Every time you take a stroke, you'd touch some little pieces of jelly. It's an odd sensation, given you can't really see the salps in the surf zone due to the waves and whitewater."
(See pictures: "Hard-to-See Sea Creatures Revealed.")
3-D Bloom Picture "Remarkable"
To research the swarm, Everett and colleagues first dropped a net to a depth of about 160 feet (50 meters) and vertically hauled the net and its salp harvest back to the surface for counting.
The team then deployed a salp-catching trawl that was towed behind the ship at different depths.
Lastly, the scientists towed what's called an optical plankton counter, or OPC, to depths between the surface and about 400 feet (120 meters). The small instrument uses an LED light to count and size up any small creatures in the water.
(Watch video: "Bacteria-size Babies Among Ocean's Smallest Life.")
"We managed to tow the OPC right through the center" of a cold-core eddy—a small, spinning current that traps nutrient-rich water, making it a hot spot for plankton.
"This was remarkable, because it enabled us to get a 3-D picture of the bloom," said Everett, whose study was published December 31 in the Journal of Geophysical Research Oceans.
Finally, the team compared how many salps were located in the eddy's heart with the numbers recorded from the net and trawl data.
The team found an average salp abundance of 5,003 animals per cubic meter inside the eddy with about 604 animals per cubic meter at its edges. (One cubic meter equals 35.3 cubic feet.)
"The numbers from this cruise are the largest recorded for this species that we are aware of," Everett said. Previously, the maximum recorded density of T. democratica salps was a thousand animals per cubic meter.
Salp Swarm Mysteries Remain
Ultimately, Everett and colleagues hope to figure out the exact conditions that spark salp swarms, other than plankton blooms.
"Phytoplankton ... is needed for food, obviously, but this doesn't automatically result in a salp swarm," he said.
"Other factors such as nutrient supply, the correct species of phytoplankton, or the right water temperature" need to occur, he said.
"There also needs to be a few salps around (or a 'seed population' as we might say) in order to bloom in the first place—you can't make something from nothing."
Since salps live for only a few weeks, "we are also interested in what happens to this biomass when the swarm dies," Everett noted.
"Salps bloom quickly, but they are also likely to run out of resources quickly [and die off]. Does this biomass sink to the seafloor? Or is it eaten by fish in the upper ocean?"
The answer, he said, has "significant implications" for our understanding of where carbon is stored in the oceans.

Ordering was nice and easy, with great comms and excellent postal service - I was initially very happy. However, 6 weeks later my Fuji XE2 developed a fault and had to go back to them. It never emerged from the repair shop (even now after more than 5 weeks) so they sent me a replacement. Unfortunately the replacement isn't new since all the seals on the packaging are broken. I complained and demanded a refund - as I'm entitled to at this stage - and so far they have refused. They now seems to… Read Full Review

We would like to confirm the following:
1. The replacement camera body is brand NEW and NEVER used, unlike this customer suggested here. It was taken from a brand new Fujifilm X-E2 package. The accessories were the ones this customer used previously and were sent to us together with his faulty camera body by this customer.
2. This customer ordered the Fujifilm X-E2 Body on 17 February 2014. He reported the fault on 5 April 2014, that is 7 weeks after purchase, hence the camera would be repaired under warranty, rather than replaced or refunded. We received his faulty camera on 18 April 2014. Normally Fujifilm requires only 2-3 weeks to repair cameras. Since Fujifilm took longer than expected, we sent out a brand NEW replacement camera body (described above), together with his previously used accessories, as a goodwill gesture on 9 May 2014, that is the third week after we received the faulty camera body. We would like to stress once again that the replacement camera is brand NEW and NEVER used.
Once again, we really have done everything we could by offering this customer a brand new replacement, although we did not need to as long as we could get the faulty camera repaired under warranty.
We offered a brand new replacement as a goodwill gesture, as we did not want to keep him waiting much longer, because Fujifilm could not tell us when the camera will be repaired at the time.
We had offered replacement like this in the past and all those customers were happy about it. This really is the first time a customer is not happy with a brand new replacement.
