Advice for the guys who insist on posting pictures of their penis
Things to keep in mind:
1. Your penis is not a piece of art; it is not attractive on its own.
2. You are not creating a fantasy: women do not look at penises, like shoes, and say "I need to have that"
3. A picture of your penis says that you are reluctant to show your face; unless she will be buried in your cock for the entire duration and you blindfold her on the way in and out, it will matter.
4. Eventually, you will have to send her a picture of your face, at which point you will not receive further emails from her.
5. If you're posting a picture of a penis, you clearly never had sex because you know a penis isn't the most important thing!
You can't sell yourself via a penis. The penis has a walk on role; it doesn't even has lines. It comes in maybe 1 hour and 30 minutes into an 1 hour 40 minutes movie. Yeah, by the end you're excited to know what happens, but that's only because you already sat through the 1 hour and 30 minutes (pending it was satisfying). I've seen many people walk out on movies, you know, before they end. I'm sure many men have experienced this; you meet and there's definitely attraction, then you make out; take off your clothes and hers; maybe you go down on a girl; and then she says she doesn't want to have sex. This is because you were awful. You screwed up somewhere along the line. If you were good to her, you get to show her your penis, if you were terrible at satisfying her, she will be tired.
What you should post:
1. a picture of your face and body or none at all
2. a description of yourself, beyond the physical aspect
3. Probably more enticing if you add a description of what you would like to do to her
By the way, most decent looking women and men go to bars to pick up. You know, the "I met this guy last night at the bar, we danced all night and he was hot. Then we went back to my place." NOT "I saw this guy's penis on CL last night and thought I should email him because I've extrapolated from his penis that he's probably attractive and a fun guy".
Good luck

A new Smurfs movie recently hit the theaters and now the blue critter that's been a part of many people's childhood takes the form of the Smurfs USB Flash Drive.
The Smurfs USB Flash Drive features the characters Papa Smurf and Jokey Smurf. The memory stick is made from silicone casing which is durable enough to protect the device from shock should you drop it. The colors, details and looks are all there, so worrying about the authenticity of the characters shouldn't be a problem at all. The USB stick comes in 4GB and 8GB capacities and supports Windows 7, Vista, XP, 2000 and Mac OS.
The Smurfs USB Flash Drive makes a nice accessory for fans who grew up with the cartoon.

Life sentence handed down in Adams County murder of mother of three
Victim was daughter of Asst. U.S. Attorney
BRIGHTON, Colo. - A life sentence has been handed down in the case of a man convicted of beating and killing a mother of three last year in an Adams County motel.
Twenty-nine-year-old Michael Earl Smith Jr. was sentenced Wednesday to life in prison without parole plus 12 years. Smith was found guilty Friday of first-degree murder and sexual assault in the July 12 death of 34-year-old Krista Ann Boma at the Valli-Hi Motel, 7320 Pecos St., in Adams County.
Prosecutors said Smith severely beat and strangled Boma, who was the daughter of Assistant U.S. Attorney James Boma. Smith strangled her using his hands and a belt, prosecutors said.
Adams County District Judge Mark Warner described Smith's actions as "cruel, heartless and depraved."

Star surfer Otis Carey sues for defamation
Category: Sport Published Date
Law suits are vanishingly rare in the world of surfing. It's meant to be all peace, love and smokin' barrels - not briefs, plaintiffs, and corporate barristers. Now pro surfer Otis Carey is suing Nationwide News, a subsidiary of News Corp Australia, for defamation in a case that has divided the surfing community.
"I can't recall anything like this happening," says Vaughan Blakey, editor of Surfing World magazine. "It's really unusual in surfing to have a high profile law suit going on and the intensity of the reaction it has...

Two Maryland teenage girls are in police custody after abusing a teenager with autism and filming it on their cell phones. One, who is 17 years old, is being charged as an adult with false imprisonment, assault and solicitation for child pornography. The other girl, who is 15, is charged as a juvenile.
As a community we must all work together to take a stand against abuse and violence against our loved ones with autism. The victimization of individuals on the spectrum and other disabilities has become far too prevalent. Autism Speaks provides information from experts in the field explaining what abuse is, the signs of abuse, what to do if your loved one has been abused and how we can take steps to reduce risk.

How to Make Clown Cake Pops!!
I cannot lie. Making these clown cake pops way waaaay too much FUN! They are so cute, don't you think? And super easy to make too, and perfect for a carnival or
Circus themed birthday
, baby shower... Plus, the kids can help too, which in my book is a huge bonus! ;)
Get the full DIY below.
DIY Circus Clown Cake Pops
* Cake pops - see how to make basic ones
* White chocolate or white candy melts for coating the cake balls
* Ice cream cones
Sixlets and Mini gumballs
- I used blue and red
* Jujubes - I used yellow and orange
* Smarties or other small candy for decor of the hat
* Edible food pens - I used black and red
* Polystyrene block or floral foam to stand pops on
* Long lollipop sticks
* Serrated knife
* Cupcake cases for decor
Colored paper straws
Using a serrated knife, gently serrate off the piece of the ice cream cone (about 1 and half inch). Set aside.
Make your cake balls as per directions
, but instead of blue, used white candy melts or white chocolate to coat - Melt the white chocolate in the microwave at 30 second intervals until fully melted.
Whilst the surface of the cake pop is still wet, add the jujubes for 'hair',
red Sixlet
as nose and the ice cream cone hat. You lay have to hold it a couple of seconds until the parts stick to the pop.
Using a little more of the candy melt or white chocolate, glue on the blue gumball and candies to the hat. Place the cake pops into the polystyrene block or floral foam to set.
Once the coating of the pops is dry, use the edible food pens to draw eyes and mouth or other decorations you fancy.
To finish off, flatten a cupcake cake and make a small hole in the center. Slide the case in the cake pop stick and cover stick with a cute paper straw to match. I also used pinking shears to give the edges of the cupcake case a little jagged edge. Cute, right? :)
Hope you enjoy the post, and come back all this month for more fun

King County Charter Amendments, 3 (November 2010)
Three King County Charter Amendment measures were on the November 2, 2010 ballot in King County.
All three measures were approved
Ordinance 2009-0496: Streamline the filing of campaign-related finance reports This amendment will eliminate the requirements for candidates to file financial reports with the County. The State Public Disclosure Commission publishes all campaign reports, making the county filing unnecessary.
Ordinance 2010-0328: Highlight the County's responsibility in unincorporated areas This amendment will change the county charter so that the duties and responsibilities of the county commission towards unincorporated areas is better defined. Also it will define the county's duties to the local economy as well as the environment and define the county's priorities to both urban and rural areas.[1]
Ordinance 2010-0169: Sheriff's Bargaining Powers for Labor Contracts Under this charter amendment, the County Executive will be able to negotiate wages, but the Sheriff will be the one to negotiate working conditions. Several counties in the state have this arrangement.[2]
PubliCola had come out in favor of all three of these proposed charter amendments believing that all three would benefit the county and promote positive changes.[4]

Solid Performance
Very durable, simple binding. Everything you need nothing you don't. Straps could use a tad more padding and baseplate padding isn't as cushy as say the cartels. However, these are much more durable. The true board flex thing is def. noticable. I'd say there 6.5/10 for flex. The are stiffer than the atlas and less than the sl's. Bout the same flex as cartels, tad stiffer than the contact pros. Don' hesitate to pick these up, sure they aren't as comfy as cartels but they are waaaayyyyy more durable and more core.

Karly Hirst
Karly Hirst has been selected by the UNF Alumni Association as the recipient of the Senior Service Award for the spring 2014 graduating class. The UNF Alumni Association selects a graduating senior each semester for outstanding service to the University and the community through volunteerism.
Karly is graduating today with a Bachelor of Arts in Education degree majoring in Elementary Education. Since arriving at UNF in 2010, she has become well known on the campus and in the Jacksonville community. Karly has been a member of the Presidential Envoys Student Alumni Association at the University of North Florida for three years and has played an instrumental role in organizing and facilitating various Envoy activities. The Envoys are a select group of students who are chosen based on their character, campus involvement, academic standing and personal references. They serve as student ambassadors at special events for the Alumni Association and the university president, and are recognized for their outstanding volunteer service to the campus and the community. Karly certainly exemplifies what it means to be an Envoy.
Karly has been exceptionally dedicated during her time with the Envoys. She quickly worked her way up in the organization, starting as a member on the Service Committee, and then becoming the Service Chair, and currently serves as the Vice President of External Programming. Highlights from Karly's time in these various positions include coordinating opportunities for Envoys to participate in beach clean-ups, a zoo clean-up, Clara White Mission service, McKenzie's Run participation, and Spirit Spotting with UNF's On Campus Transition program. She also helped coordinate a pen-pal program with children from Wolfson Children's Hospital, a fall festival in a low-income housing complex, and a food drive for UNF's Lend a Wing pantry. Karly's hard work and dedication to service provided her and her fellow Envoys the opportunity to give back in so many ways to the University and northeast Florida community.
Karly's service and leadership goes beyond just the Envoys. On campus, she is the Overall Director for UNF Dance Marathon. She has served in this organization for three years in a variety of leadership roles. The UNF Dance Marathon is a 17-hour event where several hundred UNF students and faculty members participate. It raises money for Children's Miracle Network hospitals, and has successfully raised over $136,000 in the past 5 years. She also volunteers directly with Children's Miracle Network, and attends many of their local events such as the Festival of Lights 5K, and Medicine and Miracles with the Jaguars. She has led hospital tours, worked with the Miracle families, and helped coordinate events for the organization.
Outside of campus Karly coaches a soccer team for the Down Syndrome Association of Jacksonville. She has been involved with this organization for two years, coaching children ages three to six. She spends two hours every Saturday to coach and support their success. Karly also organized an awareness event for Fibrolamellar Liver Cancer for liver cancer awareness month this past October. This event raised close to $1,000.

I can't figure out this misfire.
Well here is where I am at with my problem. '99 4runner with 3.4L and it started an occasional misfire on Cyl #3. I say occasional, and I mean every 2 or 3 days, and the misfire only happens for a few minutes and then goes away.
New plugs, no fix. Swapped coil packs 3 and 1 to isolate the problem. Still misfires on 3. So this points me towards the injector. When I ohm tested it today, I touched the probes to the terminals and got a reading of 37 and then it worked its way down to 15.7 and then settled there. I think the 15 is normal, but should be be starting up so high? I've never tested an injector before so maybe that was a foolish question, but I just don't know. Can an injector be bad, even if it ohms properly? I've been chasing this demon for weeks now and I have two more weeks to figure it out before I am supposed to take the 4runner on a fairly lengthy drive. Can anyone shed any light on this for me, or should I just bite the bullet and take it to a shop and bend over when the bill comes? |
Replaced injector, problem solved
Had that same problem with my 99 limited, cylinder 1 misfire. Injector was replaced and gas tank was seafoamed, still threw the misfire code. Finally my wife noticed the rubber fuel hose leading to the steel fuel line on the injector was cracked, rotted, and leaking fuel. 2 bucks for a new 12" piece of 1/4 inch hose from NAPA later, problem solved. Bottomline...check all the hoses for cracks and whatnot, any air or off- pressure causes that engine to throw a fit like my 2 year old. Glad to hear you fixed it. Regards,

Very good location, close to the subway station, grocery store, cafes and places to eat. Staff were not particularly friendly and there was a mix up with the reservation which generated some unpleasantness, the lady at the reception seemed annoyed though she did help us. Rooms were very clean and spacious, but my friend's room on the first floor was hot and noisy. Mine was on the 4th and had AC, which was good. Wi-Fi is good in the hallways but not in the rooms.

This Sunday, November 9, 2014, Development and Peace launches its Fall Education and Awareness campaign titled "Sow Much Love" in response to the continuing privatization and genetically modification of seeds by multinational corporations, to the detriment of small family farmers throughout the world.
D & P invites you to raise your voice in your parish, your local school, your community, as well as with your elected officials, to show your support for small family farmers and their right to seeds.
Check out the D & P table at the back of the church and sign the petition calling on our Members of Parliament to respect the rights of small family farmers to save, reuse, preserve, and share their seeds which feed the world. Seeds are part of creation and are for the common good, they should not be owned by multinational corporations.
Thanks to our parishioners' energy, wisdom, and commitment to justice, Development and Peace will be able to continue to raise its voice to fight the injustices that cause global hunger. Together, we can make a place at the table for all of the members of our human family.

Ten percent of the Share Lent collection goes to help people living in emergency situations such as the Philippines and other disaster areas. The reminder will focus on long term reconstruction and development, to build a world of justice, particularly in strengthening grassroots social movements, peace-building and addressing the special needs of women and children. Together we can build a more just and sustainable food system for our human family. We ask that you use any envelope directed to Development and Peace, with your name and address, so that a taxable receipt can be issued.
Thank you for your generous contributions. Your gifts to Development and Peace today, on this Palm Sunday, given in love, will grow wisely in the hands of our partners. In solidarity, we can help peace and justice grow, and ease hunger and despair amongst the world's poor.
Share Lent is the annual education and fundraising campaign for Development and Peace, the official international organization of the Catholic Church of Canada.
This year the theme of our Share Lent Campaign is "One Human Family, Food for All", launched by the Holy Father in December?

Typhoon Haiyan Emergency Relief for the Philippines The Philippines is one of the most disaster-prone countries in the world and it has seen its share of typhoons – but nothing like super Typhoon Haiyan. The strongest storm on record to make landfall, this super Typhoon surged through a wide path of destruction that included some of the poorest parts of the Philippines. Its deadly winds swept away villages, affecting 10 million people, with 4 million homeless and over 5000 deaths.

Brittany Kilduff allowed just one hit in five innings as the third-seeded Lakewood Ranch High girls softball team defeated Charlotte 10-0 in the opening round of the Class 5A-District 11 tournament April 20.
Becca Slowik led the way for the Lady Mustangs at the plate going 2-for-3 with a pair of doubles and four RBIs. Stacie Nelson followed going 1-for-3 with a pair of RBIs and three runs scored.
"One through nine everybody always hits," Lakewood coach Joe Dowling said. "(Everyone) always asks 'Where's your weak spot?' and I always tell them 'You find it.'"
Lakewood will return to action April 23 when they face second-seed Venice in the distirct semifinals.

October 3, 2004
Kathy Hotchner keeps a hectic schedule, but in the wake of a record-breaking fiscal year and with a 30th-anniversary season under way at her Scottsdale Center for the Arts, perhaps she should pencil in a day of self-applause.
One could hardly blame her.
As its director, Hotchner, 61, has spent the past 16 years developing a solid brand identity for the center by bringing challenging, commercially risky but artistically rewarding arts events to the Valley.
But Hotchner would rather hand that applause to her audiences, like the 300,000 people who attended center events last year, and the hundreds of thousands expected to support this season's lineup of acts, which includes comedian Lily Tomlin, performance artist Laurie Anderson and famed dancer Mikhail Baryshnikov.
Those audiences continue to support an arts center that's regularly cited as one of the nation's best.
"I think somehow my tastes must match the community," she says, "or else we wouldn't have been this successful."
But success hasn't always been in the center's spotlight.
Newspaper archives, city historians and interviews with people associated with the center in its early years as a city-managed venue paint a portrait of a struggling facility — one that floundered in its quest for an identity, hoping to appeal to everyone but attracting few.
"Early on, we did some wild things that were pretty stupid," admits David Harris, deputy city manager for Scottsdale in the 1980s and who, as the city's director of community services in the '70s, took the lead in developing and debuting the center.
Consider opening night, Oct. 23, 1975.
While staff members worked fastidiously with sticks of chalk to mark the main theater's seats with numbers (the real ones hadn't yet arrived to be affixed to the seats), country singer Roger Miller was preparing to take the stage in the center's 838-seat main theater.
Miller had been booked by the center to show off the elaborate sound system that acoustical engineer Christopher Jaffe had designed (it was the first indoor venue to use Jaffe's "electronic resonance system"), though the day of the concert, Miller opted to use his own sound system and technicians.
The result was a lackluster show, reported the Scottsdale Daily Progress, the predecessor of the Scottsdale Tribune:
"Miller performed old favorites such as 'King of the Road' and 'Dang Me' and even took a turn at the fiddle. His performance was met with polite applause from an audience which was obviously not filled with country music fans."
The concert was punctuated by Miller's "derogatory remarks" after periodic glitches with his sound system.
"I'd like to thank the Mattel toy company for the sound system tonight," he reportedly said.
Booking Miller, Harris laughs, "was probably a mistake."
That first season pulled in fewer than 150,000 people.
"We spent a year and a half with people who lived two blocks away not knowing where the center was," says Bruce MacDonald, who in 1977 was already the third person to fill the director's seat at the center.
Harris points to programming such as RV conventions and a Fourth of July festival featuring "Nelda and Her Snakes" (in which a woman performed with a large python) as evidence that the center's pandering approach to luring audiences had failed.
Dance and avant-garde theater — both now staples of the center's seasons — were both difficult sells in the center's opening years, Harris says. In the '70s, a flop could bring in audiences of as few as 25 people.
By its 10th birthday, the center was able to look back proudly on top-name acts, including Toni Tennille, Ella Fitzgerald, Lily Tomlin, Pearl Bailey, Ravi Shankar, Edgar Bergen & Charlie McCarthy, David Brenner and Bill Cosby — a remarkable roster considering the limited capacity of the main theater.
But trouble was brewing.
The center was managed by the city's Community Services Department, which also oversees libraries and parks and recreation. And though the center received city funds — it was given about $1.4 million in 1985 — it took 70 percent of its annual programming budget from the nonprofit Scottsdale Arts Center Association and used other monies from groups like the Men's League (now the Scottsdale League for the Arts)
The organizations often overlapped, and over the years, the association wanted larger influence on booking acts at the center. In 1985, City Councilman Jim Bruner headed a task force that suggested spinning off management of the center into a new nonprofit organization.
"You had various entities all wanting to do great things, but the problem was, nobody was designated in charge," says Frank Jacobson, president and CEO of the Scottsdale Cultural Council, which was formed in 1988 and now oversees both the center and its neighboring Scottsdale Museum of Contemporary Art.
Jacobson came to Scottsdale from Colorado's Arvada Center for the Arts and Humanities, where he oversaw a staff that included performing arts director Kathy Hotchner. He recruited her for the center three months after he took the new job.
Together, they shaped what would be the center's new course — bringing in a diverse blend of arts across genres and cultures, with hopes of establishing a brand strong enough for audiences to try more unknown arts offerings.
"I've always called Kathy the soul of our organization," Jacobson says. "Kathy has an emotional involvement in what she's doing. She certainly uses her head as well, but she has to have some emotional attachment and some community attachment. She keeps our programs fresh and diverse.
''Kathy wants to make the world better, and she does it through the arts."
Hotchner's emotional involvement extends to the relationships she has with agents representing the groups she books at the center.
She has earned a reputation for trustworthiness and a zeal for taking risks to bring edgier shows — "The Vagina Monologues" was a controversial choice in 2001; this season's buzzworks are Tim Robbin's political polemic "Embedded" and Afghan folk act Ensemble Kaboul — and for fostering more obscure art forms, like spoken word.
Monologuist Spalding Gray, who committed suicide earlier this year, performed several times at the center, and developed the piece "Gray's Anatomy" there in 1993. His wife, theatrical booking agent Kathie Russo, calls Hotchner "practically a part of the family."
"She's a kind and intellectual person and has a vision that I wish more presenters in this country had," Russo says.
But progressiveness isn't without its hitches.
Hotchner recalls her first season of programming for the center, when she booked a black theater troupe from South Africa. While the troupe was in town, one member was walking through downtown in a casual outfit with a T-shirt, perusing shop windows, only to have the police called on him.
"It was eye-opening for all of us," Hotchner says.
It's also one of the reasons she takes pride in continuing a multicultural focus in her programming.
The director also has found a new niche in novelty productions. Recently, "Menopause — the Musical" had a successful eight-month run at Theater 4301, a former IMAX theater that the center renovated and transformed into a cozy 326-seat playhouse.
And the one-woman comedy "Late Nite Catechism," starring Patti Hannon as a charmingly acerbic Catholic nun, has been running for four years in what used to be the center's 137-seat film screening theater (screenings of classic and independent movies "never really took off," David Harris says) and is now called the Stage 2 Theater.
A sequel to "Catechism" opened last season and has proved equally popular — and equally supportive of the center's bottom line, helping finance shows that aren't expected to make a profit.
City leaders are discussing expanding the center, possibly starting work on a theater district somewhere in Scottsdale, to stay competitive with the growing number of arts centers sprouting up across the Valley.
Hotchner is more concerned with audience trends — that uncertain times such as war and recession cause people to buy tickets for more mainstream, "safe" fare — than entering into the world of booking more "slam-dunk," topname artists into a larger venue.
"I'm looking to complement what's going on in the community and create an arts experience for people here," she says. "It's taken 12 to 14 years to build up a trust factor with the community, and I think there's an audience now for what I bring."

Imagine a 1950s diner on an acid trip and you'll land at Boopsie Daisy, an Etsy shop by Canadian-based user Missy Munday. Though the shop sells art prints, the prints are truly more like pages torn out of an ongoing creepy-cute fairytale that could easily be turned into a Tim Burton film. All of the colors used are neon and supersaturated but still retain a very vintage glow. By juxtaposing doll heads with different delicious diner foods, there's this active eeriness throughout all of the posters, which feels like an exposé of what really goes down in the diner after it closes shop. You feel transported into a wacky, kitschy world full of children with hamburgers and strawberries for heads, and mugs filled with hot chocolate and cupid dolls that were perhaps concocted by some cook-gone-mad-scientist. Still, it's hard not to smile at Boopsie Daisy's creations...and think twice about what goes down at your local diner. Missy's Etsy page for Boopsie Daisy can be found here.

Pictures have been circulating of a statue placed on the Lanark Way bonfire on social media sites.
However, UTV visited the west Belfast location on Wednesday afternoon and there was no sign of any Holy figures placed on the huge structure.
A police spokesman said: "Police are aware of the statue and are making enquiries."
Sinn Féin have challenged the DUP to condemn the incident.
Belfast Councillor Ciaran Beattie said the statue was stolen from the Cluain Mor area and claims it was later put on the bonfire.
He said: "The theft of this statue must be condemned. To add insult to injury the statue was then pictured on top of a nearby loyalist bonfire at Lanark Way and there are concerns in the local area that it will be burned.
"This theft was clearly designed to heighten tensions in the area."
"I would appeal for someone to have the decency to return this statue safely."
I have been assured by people close to the bonfire construction that no statue has been placed on the bonfire. It has been suggested to me that the photograph actually shows a person at the top of the bonfire, or else has been doctored.Councillor Brian Kingston DUP
I have been assured by people close to the bonfire construction that no statue has been placed on the bonfire. It has been suggested to me that the photograph actually shows a person at the top of the bonfire, or else has been doctored.
Councillor Brian Kingston DUP
The DUP, however, have questioned if the statue was actually placed on the bonfire.
Councillor Brian Kingston added: "A blurred photograph has appeared on a parody Facebook account along with the claim that it shows a statue on the Lanark Way bonfire.
"I have spoken to senior PSNI officers and local community representatives and no-one has seen this alleged incident occurring.
"This claim appeared on a spoof social media account which should be treated with great scepticism.
"It would seem that the only people taken in by this dubious claim have been Sinn Féin."
He added: "The PSNI have reported the theft of a statue from a memorial in the Springfield Road area.
"I would appeal for the return of that item and for anyone who knows who was responsible for this reported crime to pass that information on to the police without delay."
The bonfire is thought to be one of the largest in all of Northern Ireland.
Last year there was outrage after a statue was placed on the bonfire at the same location ahead of the Eleventh night.
It was removed from the bonfire before it was lit and returned to a local priest.

Last winter, I bought several pots of abused jades from Home Depot. Over the year, they grew so much that I had to repot them all, splitting them into their own pots. Some of them live at my work now, and I thought I'd share some pictures... I never would have gotten them to all survive if I hadn't found the posts on this forum! |

"[A] desire for pre-eminence, authority and disciplinary power — is what blogs and the digital humanities stand against. The point is made concisely by Kathleen Fitzpatrick in her new book, Planned Obsolescence: Publishing, Technology, and the Future of the Academy."-New York Times - Opinionator Blog,"The narrative arc of Planned Obsolescence is tight, coherent, eloquent--propulsively staking its territory from micro to macro, personal to global."-Neil Baldwin,Creative Research Center at Montclair State University: Director's Blog
"At a time of great uncertainty about the future of the humanities, this informed and stimulating book buzzes with excitement for the opportunities that digital technology can offer to humanities researchers...Planned Obsolescence is a wonderfully clear and honest assessment of the present state of academic publishing and possible future directions. The digital age offers us a chance to exit the ivory tower and engage in more meaningful collaborations with peers and a more inclusive dialogue with readers. Fitzpatrick's study is a must-read, not just for all of those directly involved - academics, publishers, university administrators, librarians - but also for anybody interested in the future of the humanities."-Alessandra Tosi,Times Higher Education
"Fitzpatrick is well qualified to discuss alternate forms of publishing and unexpected futures for the academy...Chapters titled 'Peer Review,' 'Authorship,' 'Texts,' 'Preservation,' and 'The University' methodically dismantle arguments for the status quo, with sections debating accepted beliefs and practices such as the anonymous basis of peer review; recognizable, individual authorship; for-profit university presses; and the rejection of open access as a tenable scholarly publishing model."-Library Journal,

I would give this school an average rating nothing so outstanding about this school. Parents and kids need to put lots of effort almost all students get private tutoring. I never heard anyone saying the teachers motivated the student to take to next level. Lots of educated parents around the neighborhood so they take initiative to take the kids to science Olympiad like activities. So these kids would definitely stand out. I have compared lots of school in not so good school district with this I could not find any single difference in the program or any outstanding activity at this school. I tried to register my son for Robotics club after hearing lots of good reviews nothing happened that year. It was said that some teachers would volunteer and take them for competition. Kids don t have a super friendly atmosphere my kid was nervous to go and speak anything to any teachers. So this is best suited for students and parents who are over achievers and extraverts not a good atmosphere for an average performing kid or an average parent/family.

Inoue Enryō
Inoue Enryō (井上円了?, March 18, 1858 – June 6, 1919), Japanese philosopher, Buddhist reformer, educator, and nationalist; A key figure in the reception of Western philosophy, the emergence of modern Buddhism, and the permeation of the imperial ideology during the Meiji era. He is the founder of Toyo University and created the Temple Garden of Philosophy in Tokyo.
Enryō was ordained as a priest in his father's Jodo Shinshu Ōtani branch 眞宗大谷派. He graduated with a doctorate from Tokyo Imperial University in 1896 focusing mainly on Western philosophy. He renounced his status as a Buddhist priest for the lay life, but remained committed to "reforming Buddhism". He is the founder of what later became Toyo University 東洋大學. There he established a new discipline for the study of the mysterious he called yokaigaku 妖怪學. A prolific author, Inoue published numerous works on Buddhism, philosophy, education, religion and monsters. He is most famous for Bukkyō Katsuron, 佛教活論 and his popular lectures on the mysterious. He contributed to attempts to "modernize" Buddhism by arguing for its compatibility with Western philosophy and science. Inoue spent the later part of his life traveling the country giving lectures discouraging belief in monsters. As a result of his studies of the supernatural, he was known as Dr. Ghost or Dr. Yōkai.
Enryō died on June 6, 1919 while giving a lecture in Dalian, China.

HoopsHype Sam Hinkie rumors
NBA general manager: "I'm not one of those GMs that subscribes to the tanking theory. You can lose all the games you want, but you're still not guaranteed to get the top pick. Not since 2004 has the team with the most losses won the top pick. The moment you intentionally start trying to tank, and that philosophy gets in your building, it's hard to get it out. Teams that have done that over the years in trying to get the top pick have ended up being in the lottery for nine, 10 years straight. It's one thing if you're doing that in the NFL, where if you've got the worst record you're guaranteed to get the first pick. I could go along with that a little bit. "But what I would expect Sam Hinkie to do is to get on the phone and try to move his last good veteran pieces that are playing well. I'm sure [agent] David Falk is trying to get Evan Turner out of there. But I don't know who takes him because Turner is in the last year of his contract, and Falk is trying to get a lot of money for him. And the problem is that a guy like Thaddeus Young is hard to move because of his contract. So I don't know who would trade anything of value for him. As far as beginning to believe in the guys they have and thinking they can build around them, [the current Sixers regime] won't do that because then they would be validating the [front office] guys who were there before you.'' ESPN.com
"It's hard to tank, though. It's one thing if there wasn't a lottery like the NFL. But because there's never anything guaranteed, tanking is a hard thing to do. It's easy to say you're going to do it, but when you're going through the dog days of January and you're 5-30 and there are 4,000 people in the stands, it's painful. The other thing is that while Andrew Wiggins is a good prospect, he's not the next LeBron -- or even Kobe when he came out back in '96. He's not that. He's a very good player, but it's not like when Tim Duncan was coming out of college.'' ESPN.com
"Would I start to think I've got a nucleus to build around if I were Hinkie? Hell, no. There is no part of me that thinks they have something to build around. Come on, look at that roster. I'm not saying they're horrible, but it's just not realistic at all. They will probably try to trade Evan Turner, but that's going to be tough. David Falk is going to ask for the world [in Turner's next contract]. He's a tough agent. Everybody's thinking that. Turner's qualifying offer is $8 million. I don't see him as a star player. I think Carter-Williams could be. But regardless, believe me, this start is nothing. Three games in the NBA is nothing.'' ESPN.com
NBA executive No. 1: "I would think about moving Evan Turner and Spencer Hawes. And that's only if this winning continues. I don't know how long it can. This is the time of year when the poor teams -- if they're going to win games -- win a few because the guys on the team still believe they can win. Midway through the season, they won't have the same amount of confidence once they realize they're not a good team. So I would be stunned if they can sustain this. Besides Michael Carter-Williams, Turner, Hawes and Thaddeus Young, they've got nobody. There is no way, if I were Hinkie, I would begin to think this is a nucleus I can build around. No way. Not right now. I thought before the season they were going to win less than 10 games. Their bench guys weren't even that good in college. ESPN.com
If the product on the court isn't all that impressive just yet, at least the 76ers appear to be putting together a very strong front office. Yesterday the team announced that Brandon Williams, who most recently served as the NBA's associate vice president of basketball operations, has been hired as the general manager of the Wilmington 87ers, the Sixers' NBA Development League team. Williams spent the past eight seasons in the league office, also serving as director of player development in the community and player programs department, helping players prepare for the rigors of being a professional athlete. "Brandon will be a big help for our organization, a terrific mind who has experience with the league," general manager Sam Hinkie said Philadelphia Inquirer
Zach Lowe: Bookkeeping: League sources say Sixers have hired Brandon Williams from league office for key position under GM Sam Hinkie. Twitter @ZachLowe_NBA
Zach Lowe: Williams worked in basketball operations for NBA, highly regarded. Has law degree. Was Davidson's scoring leader before Steph Curry. Twitter @ZachLowe_NBA
Hinkie believes a byproduct of having a new coach in noted player developer Brett Brown, who succeeds Doug Collins after Collins' three years in Philadelphia, and a new system is that there are no preconceived notions about what guys can do and who ends up in Brown's regular rotation. "Everyone starts with a blank slate," he said. "That's refreshing in a lot of ways. It's less what you've done and more: what can you do from here? I think all of our players will sense an opportunity to play, show what they can do and expand their game one way or another. It's important for the future of the Sixers and their own careers." The Intelligencer
Hinkie said that's what he hopes to hear and he loves "that we have players here now who are itching to compete every night" and wants guys willing to work hard to develop and maximize their abilities. "Several guys on this team are very talented," he said. "Several guys have more game in them than we've seen to date and are itching for a chance to try." Hinkie's expectations for the season are "that we lay some things for our foundation, evaluate and learn about all of our own players, and try to make each of them better. The only thing that will make us better is to continue to improve." The Intelligencer
The 76ers aren't done adding players. General manager Sam Hinkie said he will make roster moves "in a lot of ways" in the weeks leading up next month's training camp. "In training camp, you can have up to 20 players," Hinkie said. "I'm not the kind of guy that you can say that likes to miss out on opportunities. The chance to have 20 is another chance to learn more about people." Philadelphia Inquirer
Hinkie refuted a popular perception that he would like to trade a veteran (likely Thaddeus Young, who is set to make $9.2 million in 2014-15) to create even more cap space after the Sixers should have two lottery picks as high as Nos. 1 and 6 in the draft. "We have the most cap space (next summer) in the league right now," Hinkie said. "I wouldn't say we necessarily have a need for a whole lot more. We have a lot to work with." Bucks County Courier Times
As for adding a veteran or two to this young group, particularly a backup point guard to work with rookie first-round pick Michael Carter-Williams, Hinkie said there's not one position he's targeting. "We're active out on the market, talking with lots of people," he said. "I'm focused on talent more so than (position)." The Sixers were mentioned as having interest in journeyman Chris Duhon, though other teams have apparently also talked to him. Bucks County Courier Times
Q: The coaching search lasted longer than many expected, perhaps even you. Was part of the delay due to the fact that there may have been some candidates who weren't willing to oversee a total rehaul? Sam Hinkie: I would say things largely progressed as I would have anticipated. Finding the right guy was always the priority, and when we did in Brett Brown we moved forward. Our first interviews were in Las Vegas in mid-July when I went out there for the summer league, just after the Orlando Summer League. It was a solid week of interviews. Then there were a few more to follow and then some more. I was focused immensely on finding who was the best fit for what we were looking to do. Philadelphia Inquirer
Q: You don't have an assistant GM, and longtime NBA guys like Doug Collins and Rod Thorn and Tony DiLeo are now gone. Before you hired Brett Brown, who are some of the people who were helping with personnel decisions? A: We have a talented staff that's been working real hard, behind the scenes, that people don't see. Courtney Witte is our director of player personnel and we have scouts and we are taking note of things we've done personnel-wise. We will continue to look for organization people and we want ones that make good decisions. Philadelphia Inquirer
The Philadelphia 76ers are an odd case. While they have just $40 million in contracts on their books, they are still technically over the $58.7 million salary cap. The combination of unsigned first-round draft picks Nerlens Noel and Michael Carter-Williams, the $5.1 million TPE for Jrue Holiday, the cap holds for free agents Royal Ivey, Damien Wilkins and Charles Jenkins, and the Sixers' MLE and BAE all total to $19.4 million — putting the Sixers' cap number at $59.4 million. It is inevitable that Philadelphia will end up under the cap, assuming Ivey, Wilkins or Jenkins signs with another NBA team. In the meantime, the Sixers recently used part of the Holiday TPE to acquire Tony Wroten Jr. from the Memphis Grizzlies — not cap room. HoopsWorld
With so many changes and new GM Sam Hinkie overseeing the rebuilding process, Turner, who is heading into the fourth and final guaranteed year of his rookie contract, realizes there are no guarantees that he'll remain a Sixer even until the end of the season. "All I can worry about is being better," Turner said. "I just don't want to let these type of situations deter the fun I have with the game. Everything that's been going on this summer has been about chess moves and money and all that. At the end of the day, it's about playing basketball." phillyburbs.com
Christopher A. Vito: Sam Hinkie said "some of our players got better today, and there's no game tonight," simply with hire of Brett Brown. | #sixers #nba Twitter @ChrisVito
Christopher A. Vito: Sam Hinkie: "Josh Harris is more committed than ever to owning the Sixers, the fans of Philadelphia and to keeping the Sixers here forever." Twitter @ChrisVito

text: Lovely setting, excellent food. We had one of the set menus and all courses were excellent. The "refreshed strawberry desert" was the best I have ever had. Staff friendly and attentive although the waiter did forget to open the wine and water after bringing them. A bit odd we thought. Overall a genuine bistro.
