When it comes to news about Kangna Ranaut, we're sorry to say our favourite fashionista tends to be associated more with unfortunate reports than good ones. But finally, the actress seems to have some bonafide good news to share. In what may prove to be one of her more powerful roles, right up there with Once Upon A Time In Mumbai and Fashion, Kangy will be playing a courtesan in Vishwas Patil's Rajjo. With Meena Kumari and Rekha among the legendary actresses who have portrayed the most memorable and tragic courtesan roles, Kangy knows that she has some phenomenal precedents to live up to. "The film is based on the life of a courtesan. And no one in the history of Indian cinema has played a courtesan better than Meena Kumari or Rekha. Kangna is very excited about getting a chance to pay a tribute to them," her spokesperson shared with us.
Shooting for the film will begin in mid-2013. In the meantime, Kangy is busy preparing for her big role. "She has been watching films like Umrao Jaan and Pakeezah to learn the finer nuances of the mujra. She has also started training in the dance form," her spokesperson added.

Meet Aussie model Victoria Lee. Thanks to my impressive research skills, I was able to find out that Victoria here enjoys "being creative" and "making things," posts way too few bikini selfies on her Instagram, and that one of her life goals is to travel overseas and see the world. And Victoria's in luck, because I've got the perfect place for her world tour to start: my mom's basement. The way I see it, every model can say that they've been to Paris, but I bet none of them have ever visited a blogger's bedroom before. So call me Victoria and we can start planning my your dream vacation.

Am i wrong for staying with my boyfriend?
I am 26 and my boyfriend (Greg) is 38. We have been dating for 4 years now. I have been living on my own since I was 22. When we first met, Greg had a car but I didnt, and he used to either take me everywhere I needed to go or let me borrow his car. About 5 months after we met, I got a car, and then his broke down about 5-6 months after that. So we just ended up sharing my car until he got another one (this lasted for a few months). Since we were sharing the car, Greg decided to help me with all the expenses (he always put gas in the tank, and even offered to help pay my insurance but I told him that was not necessary. I did have to get the muffler replaced and he did pay for that). While we were sharing my car, my stepfather saw Greg driving my car one day and he was furious. He expressed how angry he was, but it eventually blew over. One weekend, Greg had to go to NY (from PA) for business and he asked me to go with him. So we decided, since I was going with him, that we would just drive my car instead of flying or taking the train. I called my mom to let her know that i would be out of town for the weekend and she asked how we were getting to NY. When I told her that we were driving my car, she was heated. She accused me of letting Greg use me for my car, and told me that I was not allowed to go to NY that weekend. Against my mother's wishes, I went anyway. I felt that she did not have the right to tell me not to go out of town. When I got back, I called my parents to let them know I was back. My mom asked me if I could come over, and asked me to bring Greg. When we arrived, my parents told the both of us that they did not want Greg to ever drive my car because they paid for it, and they did not buy the car to let some guy drive around in it (the car was a gift from them. Our neighbor wanted to get rid of it, and let us have it for only $250, and my stepdad paid an extra $200 to get the car to pass inspection). They kept saying, "why should you be the one paying for gas and insurance when he is the one driving it around everywhere?" I told them that this was not the case, and that Greg always offers to help me with expenses, but they insist that he is using me. They also said that they do not want me to get my money involved with his, and that I do not have any business letting Greg help me pay for stuff. Greg got upset because he felt that they were treating me like a child and that they were in my business too much. We exchanged a few other words, then left. According to Greg, the only reason my parents would react this way is because they dont approve of him. So Greg decided to take matters into his own hands and did the unthinkable; he got on the phone and blurted a lot of my family's personal information (financal issues, arguments between the family, etc) to a lot of people we know. Greg and my parents know a lot of the same people. Needless to say, my parents and I were furious. Greg apologized to me for doing this, but he just can't apologize to my parents. He says he wishes he could take it back, and realizes that was very childish of him, but he feels that they should also apologize to us, and that I need to stand up to them more. Greg also thinks I should make them realize that they were wrong that night. Ever since this happened, my parents are always lecturing me about Greg, and they think everything is his fault. If I ask them to borrow $10 or $20, they will say something like "you wouldn't need to borrow money if you didn't have to support your boyfriend all the time." This all happened 3 years ago, and we are stil together, Greg and my parents do not speak. A few times, Greg has spoken to them in passing, but my parents said nothing back. Besides this issue, our relationship is perfect. We get into spats sometimes, but overall, we are happy with each other. We want to get married, but this issue is getting in the way. I know Greg refuses to apologize because he is letting his pride get in the way. And I know my parents wont make an effort to mend things because they are still hurt. i just dont know what to do. If I ask either party if we could get together to work things out, they both refuse. I was going to somehow get them all together for dinner without letting them know my intentions, but I think they will just get upset and leave. What should I do about this? And am I wrong for staying with Greg after what he did to my parents?
You are the only one that can answer that question. Dear Abby says, "ask yourself if you would be better off with or with out him". But I would not put your money with his unless you are married. You never truly know a person until things rough. You may find your money gone one day or find yourself stuck with a lease, then it will be to late to do anything about it. I don't know what is wrong with people, I see this all the time with friends and family. When you are mistreated by anyone, politely tell them it's not acceptable. If they keep it up, don't go around them, even if it's family. If you don't put a stop to it now, they will continue to treat you like a child.
Dear Summer Rose
I think you are old enough to make your own decisions in life.
You and Greg seem to be just fine, if you know in your heart that you love him and want to be with him then get married and have a good life.
I think your parents should be secure in their parenting skills, and trust that you are capable of making the right decisions in your life. If you make a wrong one, well, thats how your learn. They should not have meddled in your affairs. If they gave you the car then it is yours to do what you want with, why should there be strings attached.
I think for the sake of YOUR happiness, your Greg and your parents need to stop be immature, and refusing to talk to each other, and just get over it. Life is too short to have silly arguments that fester on , its a waste of time, and you never get that time back.
You want your parents and Greg to get on with each other, because if they don't you won't be happy, will you ?
I think you need to take control, because its you who wants this situation sorted out. Just have a gentle word with your parents and explain that the situation is upsetting you, and you love them, and you want things to be back to normal. Say the same thing to Greg. Take it from there.
I wish you all the best, you seem like a nice person, who only wants to be happy.
Take care.
When your parents were telling your NOT to let Greg drive your car, there were issues...#1 you were an adult, #2 it was YOUR CAR...#3 it was NONE of their business. And at that time they should have been told that. You should no longer be borrowing money from them...no matter how little..it just adds to their "See he doesn't even help her, she still has to come to Mommy and Daddy"
Now the other issue is the damage and childish thing Greg did. And the only way to repair that is for him to become an adult and say...Three years ago I did a really stupid thing out of anger, and I am sorry I did that. I love your daughter very much. I hope that you accept my apology.
After that it is out of your hands, it is in theirs. You have shown that you have grown up to become responsible adults, and if responsible adults want to marry...they can. You cannot control other people, only yourself.
All this chaos over a $250 car? There has to be way, way more to it. If I were your parents, I would want to know why a 38 year old man can't afford his own car and insurance? At 38, my expecations would be that he would have a steady job, be a homeowner and at the very least own his own vehicle. Something just doesn't sound right to me. There has to be more reasons why they are so suspicious of him. Does he have children? If so, does he support them?
Your parents are right about you mixing up your money with Greg's. Watch Judge Judy sometime. Day after day there are young women sueing former boyfriends who took advantage of them. Most of the time, the judge says there is nothing she can about it because the couple was not married.
I have been married for almost 10 years and have two children. I can't imagine what my life would be like if I couldn't share my family (including my husband) with my parents. Think long and hard before you take the next step.
Well I agree that a 38 year old man who can't afford his own car may not be "the catch of the day".
The bottom line is that you are a woman who is on her own and should not need the approval of her parents for her decisions.
I think Vickey gave you excellent advice.
I have the same questions as Livvysmom. Does he have a job,his own place and why are either of you driving a $250 clunker? Do you have a job? Why are you still asking mommy and daddy for money?
Thanks everyone for the insight. In answer to your questions, Greg and i only shared my car for a few months. After his car died, he shopped around a little and then bought a new car for himself. We were just sharing my car until he got a new one. And yes, he does have a steady job, a home, and 2 kids. We both have great relationships with both of his children and the mom, and he is very supportive of them. I cannot think of any reason why my parents would be suspicious of them.
And yes, I should stop asking them to borrow money, but they are constantly borrowing money from me too. You have no idea how many times my mom has asked me for my ENTIRE paycheck to get caught up on her bills, knowing that I have bills of my own. And I believe my parents are supposed to be more financially stable than me! Whenever I cannot afford to lend her the money, I always tell her that I can maybe ask to borrow some from Greg, depending on how badly she needs it. (even though he doesn't like my parents, he always helps me help them). And in situations like these, my mom has NO PROBLEM with me asking Greg for the money, because SHE needs it. But she does have a problem with me borrowing money from him for myself.
Also, when my parents bought me the $250 car, I was working, but it was a very entry level job, not paying that much. I had more than enough to pay my rent and utilities, but not enough to incorporate a car note and higher insurance at the time. I have a much better job now, and I have also gotten another car since then.
Sounds like time to separate Summer_Rose --
Not from Greg, but from your parents. You're now a grown adult with a full share of adult responsibilities. And when your parents ask you for money and it puts you behind on your own bills, that makes it really hard for you in turn not to ask them for money when you're low. A vicious circle that someone has to break.
Next time they make some comment about growing up or being more responsible or being more independent or taking money from them or not taking money from Greg -- and that shouldn't be too long -- Take that as your springboard, and tell them "You're right -- From now on, I'm going to be financially independent. Totally! No more of this borrowing back and forth. When you said I shouldn't mix up my finances with anyone else, you were right. No more borrowing and no more lending for me." Refuse to listen to any arguments, repeating only variations on the "You're right -- no more mixing" theme. Then stick to it. Next time they hit you up for a loan, tell them you can't do that and still meet your own commitments, and how much you'd hate to let them down by failing to live up to your responsibilities.
I totally agree with Vicky about Greg's apology to your parents. They were both wrong, but between the two sides, he seems to be "the bigger person" -- so lob the ball back into their court. If you want, you could tip your parents off that since Greg is the man you want to spend the rest of your life with, they may want to make an effort to mend fences.
your parents were concerned because they love you. the car was just an excuse. they wondered why their 26 year old daughter was/is interested in a 38 year old man... i'm not judging, just my thoughts on why your parents acted/reacted in such a manner. is it really ok with you to let this go on? talk to your parents, tell them you love them and greg as well. ask if they love you and trust you enough to let you grow up. they will have to agree to let you live your life which may include making some mistakes along the way. -NOT saying greg is a mistake, btw. but errors come with life and no one knows how things will work out. GL.

Can you name at least five influential people who shaped our country? Well, some students at Codington Elementary School can name three times that amount.
For the past nine weeks, Codington's first graders have been learning about famous Americans who helped shape our country.
On Monday, students hosted their annual American's parade. The parade was held inside because of the rain, but it didn't stop the celebration.
There were some famous names like Alexander Graham Bell, and even some people not as notable like Snowflake Bentley. "Snowflake Bentley is a person who really likes snow flakes. He was the first person to take a picture of a snowflake," said first grade student Carter Walters.
More famous faces were Sally Ride, Amelia Earhart and Michelle Obama.
"They spent a lot of time researching their person. They created circle maps about their person. They wrote reports about them and painted portraits of them and then the finale was to get to dress up as them," said Codington teacher Diane Fowler.

CONTEXT: Despite 25 years of structural imaging in bipolar disorder, brain regions affected in the disorder are ill defined. OBJECTIVES: To use meta-analytical techniques to investigate structural brain changes in bipolar disorder and to assess the effect of medication use and demographic and clinical variables. DATA SOURCES: The MEDLINE, EMBASE, and PsycINFO databases were searched from 1980-2007 for studies using magnetic resonance imaging or x-ray computed tomography to compare brain structure in patients with bipolar disorder and controls. STUDY SELECTION: We identified 1471 unique publications from which 141 studies were included in a database and 98 were selected for meta-analysis. DATA EXTRACTION: Twenty-six demographic and clinical variables were extracted from each study where available. For the meta-analysis, mean structure size and standard deviation were extracted for continuous variables, and numbers of patients and controls with an abnormality were extracted for binary variables. DATA SYNTHESIS: Bipolar disorder was associated with lateral ventricle enlargement (effect size = 0.39; 95% confidence interval, 0.24-0.55; P = 8 x 10(-7)) and increased rates of deep white matter hyperintensities (odds ratio = 2.49; 95% confidence interval, 1.64-3.79; P = 2 x 10(-5)) but not periventricular hyperintensities. Gray matter volume increased among patients when the proportion of patients using lithium increased (P = .004). Calculations from this meta-analysis show current imaging studies (which typically examine 8 regions) have a 34% chance of making a type I error. Type II errors are also appreciable (for example, 70% when measuring the lateral ventricular volume in a typical study involving 25 patients and 33 controls). CONCLUSIONS: The meta-analyses revealed robust but regionally nonspecific changes of brain structure in bipolar disorder. Individual studies will remain underpowered unless sample size is increased or improvements in phenotypic selection and imaging methods are made to reduce within-study heterogeneity. The provision of online databases, as illustrated herein, may facilitate a more refined design and analysis of structural imaging data sets in bipolar disorder.

"Maybe so, but increases in the debt ceiling were not politically charged in the past as they are now. They just allow the government to pay bills run up by previous Congresses. To not pay them would be like deciding to stop paying a car loan or mortgage."
Wrong. Increasing the debt ceiling is NOT paying the interest on the national debt. Increasing the debt ceiling is borrowing more money(adding debt). When we had the whole debt ceiling brouhaha last year the government had more than enough revenue from taxes to make the interest payments. If the debt ceiling had not been raised the Obama administration could choose to stop paying for other programs rather than default on any loans.

NBA Injury News
Last updated 11/19/14
The New York Knicks were finally able to defeat the Boston Celtics and advance to the second round of the NBA Playoffs, but it didn't come without additional injury concerns. Knicks All-Star Carmelo Anthony told reporters – including Ian Begley of ESPN New York – that his troublesome left arm "popped in and out" during the contest."It was a little sore throughout the whole game," Anthony said. "Then when Bradley came and hit my shoulder from behind, it really just kind of popped in and out a little bit. But I'm fine."The collision Anthony refers to happened in the fourth quarter between him and Avery Bradley. He admitted the arm is sore, but he also insisted that he'd be healthy enough to take the floor for Game 1 of the Knicks second-round series against the Indiana Pacers, which begins Sunday.Anthony initially injured his shoulder during Game 5 when it was tugged on by Kevin Garnett. He's been hampered by the arm since the end of the regular season.Follow @hoopsinjurynews

Just as March Madness means a three-week period of sofa bound bliss every year, so too does it mean a rash of annoying by-products. Endless tournament-themed promotions from stupid businesses, harsh bleating from people who watch three basketball games a year–I mean, it is a joyful time, and I welcome the festivities, but they do not come without some price. Potentially the most irksome thing that happens this time of year, though, are the endless comparisons between the NBA and the college game. I don't mean to tar any discussion of how the two sports are related; I mean that I cannot abide one more person who does not watch the NBA bloviating about the passion of the college game–those kids just play so much harder– or one more person who does not really watch college basketball talk about how much poorer the execution is.
Over the course of college, despite being at the perennial basketball mecca of UNC (I was in a coma for all of '09-'10), I have found myself drifting away from college ball. I had gotten older than the athletes, by and large, which was a pretty unsettling transition. I had taken a shine to the pro-game, and had sort of become one of those zealots who talk about how inferior the basketball is to the pro level. I was beginning to think that I had left college basketball behind a little bit. It was a good run, and me and the Heels had some fond memories, but it had sort of stopped making sense to me why I would follow the team too hard. And then this year's UNC team happened, and I got sucked back in.
Last season–which I have only heard about, because I was in that aforementioned coma which started on exactly the first day of UNC's season and ended shortly after the NIT, thus preventing me from having any memories of any game we lost–was a tough one here in Chapel Hill. We had some highly touted prospects brought in, same as always, but something about the team, be it shaky guard play or a lack of chemistry, prevented the talented parts from ever looking like a substantial whole. Even worse, the players seemed to be having a pretty angsty, miserable time with each loss. It got to the point where the Tar Heels were sort of painful to watch.
At the start of this year, it looked like we were in for more of the same. With Harrison Barnes not living up to his tremendous hype and the team suffering early losses to heavy underdogs, the Heels looked ready to implode. With everything lined up for another frustrating season, along with my personal growing belief that the college game was no longer for me, I figured I would be able to check out on the Heels. That is, until January, when malcontent point guard Larry Drew was benched and the starting job was handed to Kendall Marshall. With Kendall at the helm, the Heels have only lost three games, two of which came to Duke.
During our winning streak, one of the things that has struck me about UNC and pulled me back in is their transcendent weirdness. Our defense is anchored by John Henson, a bizarre hybrid between a beaming toddler, a tottering deer, and a spider monkey. Harrison Barnes plays with the emotion level of a mutual fund manager. Kendall Marshall, tall at 6'3″ but potentially slower than than my obese cat, runs down the court with his butt jutting out like a yard from his hips so that he can keep his head up. Our style of play is shockingly inconsistent–the Heels put up more than 100 in the first round of the tournament, but beat Boston College with 48 points less than a month ago. I have never seen our team successfully shoot its way out of a zone. But they're grinding it out, winning games with all their weirdness, and I am reminded that it is hardly the basketball I care about at all.
As I've been watching the tournament and thinking about the off-kilter personality of the team, it strikes me that you watch college hoops to experience games through the eyes of developing players and people. At any moment, you are watching a formative experience for a young talent, and the highs and lows of the games are experienced at the feverish emotional pitch of that development. In a sense, the sport at the college level is a reflection on talent in its adolescence: you just can't watch for mastery, but if you watch to experience talent growing into itself or falling short in trying, you'll be rewarded.
That's why it drives me so crazy when people make comparisons between the NBA and the college game. Of course college players have trouble exploiting defensive weakness–they play two hours a day and are twenty years old. Furthermore, of course NBA players can't play November games like they just made the Final Four–it's that sort of mania that turns players into KG-like jewel jabbing nutjobs. It isn't that college players lack talent or a compelling product, and it also isn't that pro players don't care about the game as much. Both assertions are equally ridiculous to me. What is true, however, is that we watch the sports for different reasons.
Pro ball mimics the best of what success in the adult world has to offer. Players work at an insane rate to match their unbelievable talent, and they reap rewards in a system that emphasizes sustained excellence. We appreciate when they are able to set aside their personal hang-ups for the sake of grinding out team wins. College ball, conversely, is brilliance in spastic intervals, random bursts of cohesion that mirror the players' age and developmental level. We appreciate them for bringing unbridled excitement and personality to the game. I think I had largely forgotten this until I became reinvested in the Tar Heels this season. What it boils down to is that I have grown frustrated with the comparisons of two different products, because those comparisons serve only to dim the luster of each game.

@Oceana – I wish that jellyfish would confine their stinging to the prey they are about to eat. I can hardly swim in the ocean for a few minutes without getting stung, and they know that I am far too large to consume!
The tentacles sometimes leave purple marks on my legs. I get goose bumps in the area that last for a long time, and the pain and burning is intense.
I use baking soda paste to soothe it a little. I also make sure that there aren't any actual tentacles still clinging to my skin. If there are, I scrape them off first.
I have to remember not to touch the tentacles while removing them, though, or they will sting my fingers. I use a credit card or my driver's license to scrape them off.

Horsepower Labels
Name: Ken Status: Educator Age: 40s Location: N/A Country: N/A Date: N/A
A certain retail store (Sears) at one time, not too long ago, advertised a table saw with a 1.5 horsepower electric motor as being able to proivde "3.0 horsepower maximum developed". Do you know how they arrive at this without running the risk of a lawsuit for false advertising? I contacted Sears directly but only got a "run around."
Well, first of all, Sears isn't worried about a suit for false advertising. Were you to buy a saw and assert that it did not function as advertised, they could simply replace it or refund your money and be rid of you. If you sued them, you'd have to prove you suffered serious financial damage as a result of Sears' grossly negligent action. *Grossly*, I said: an advertiser is allowed a certain amount of ``puffing'' in vending his wares. ``Caveat emptor'' is an ancient free-market tradition. Also, if you failed to prevail in such a suit, you could be ordered to pay Sears' legal expenses, which would dwarf the cost of all the hardware you will ever buy.
The attorney general in your state might sue Sears, on behalf of all consumers, if your state law is unusually strict about advertising contents (which is rare, because of 1st Amendment complications, and because Sears pays far more taxes and donates far more money to legislators' re-election campaigns than any number of disgrunted consumers). That is, if he has attention and attorneys to spare from pursuing murderers, car thieves, corrupt state employees, credit-card scammers, etc.
I don't think Sears is worried.
That being said, here are two ways I can imagine peak power might differ from average power: (1) the motor could produce 3.0 HP at full on, but be unable to sustain full on indefinitely without damaging itself. (2) the motor could produce 3.0 HP under certain unusual or intermittent conditions of load, electrical power, and so forth, while producing 1.5 HP under more typical conditions. One would guess the 1.5 HP figure comes from some standard measurement, regulated by some independent body (UL comes to mind) or the gummint.
I don't know for sure for it could be as simple as the motor can run at this higher power for short amounts of time, but is unable to get rid of the excess heat if it runs that way for too long. So while it is starting up, or for brief times, it can be depended on to put out this power, but if you do it for long, it will over heat etc.

Remove Win 7 Antispyware 2012 and Vista Antivirus 2012 name changing rogue (Uninstall Guide)By Lawrence Abrams on June 7, 2011 @ 12:33 PM | Last Updated: December 17, 2012 | Read 1,240,849 times.Win 7 Antispyware 2012, Vista Antivirus 2012, and XP Security 2012 are all names for the same rogue anti-spyware program. This family of rogues is promoted in two ways. The first is through the use of fake online antivirus scanners that state that your computer is infected and then prompt you to download a file that will install the infection. The other method are hacked web sites that attempt to exploit vulnerabilities in programs that you are running on your computer to install the infection without your knowledge or permission. Regardless of how it is installed, once it is running on your computer it will install itself as a variety of different program names and graphical user interfaces depending on the version of Windows that is running. Regardless of the name, though, they are all ultimately the same program with just a different skin on it. This rogue goes by different program names, which I have listed below based upon the version of Windows that it is installed on:
When installed, this rogue pretends to be a security update for Windows installed via Automatic Updates. It will then install itself as a single executable that has a random consisting of three characters, such as kdn.exe, that uses very aggressive techniques to make it so that you cannot remove it. First, it makes it so that if you launch any executable it instead launches Vista Home Security 2012, XP Internet Security 2012, Win 7 Security 2012, or any of the other names it goes under. If the original program that you wanted to launch is deemed safe by the rogue, it will then launch it as well. This allows the rogue to determine what executables it wants to allow you to run in order to protect itself. It will also modify certain keys so that when you launch FireFox or Internet Explorer from the Window Start Menu it will launch the rogue instead and display a fake firewall warning stating that the program is infected.
Once started, the rogue itself, like all other rogues, will scan your computer and state that there are numerous infections on it. If you attempt to use the program to remove any of these infections, though, it will state that you need to purchase the program first. In reality, though, the infections that the rogues states are on your computer are all legitimate files that if deleted could cause Windows to not operate correctly. Therefore, please do not manually delete any files based upon the results from this rogue's scan. While running, XP Internet Security 2012, Win 7 Antivirus 2012, and Vista Security 2012 will also display fake security alerts on the infected computer. The text of some of these alerts are: Just like the scan results, these security warnings and alerts are all fake and should be ignored. While running, Win 7 Home Security 2012, XP Antivirus 2012, and Vista Antivirus 2012 will also hijack Internet Explorer so that you cannot visit certain sites. It does this so that you cannot receive help or information at sites like BleepingComputer.com on how to remove this infection. When you attempt to visit these sites you will instead be shown a fake alert stating that the site you are visiting is dangerous and that the rogue is blocking it for your protection. The message that you will see is: Just like the fake security alerts, the browser hijack is just another attempt to make you think that your computer has a security problem so that you will then purchase the program. Without a doubt, this rogue is designed to scam you out of your money by hijacking your computer and trying to trick you into thinking you are infected. Therefore, please do not purchase this program , and if you have, please contact your credit card company and dispute the charges stating that the program is a computer infection. Finally, to remove Win 7 Antispyware 2012, Vista Antivirus 2012, and XP Security 2012 please use the guide below, which only contains programs that are free to use. Threat Classification: Advanced information: View Win 7 Antispyware 2012 & Vista Antivirus 2012 files. Tools Needed for this fix: Guide Updates: 06/07/11 - Initial guide creation. Automated Removal Instructions for Win 7 Antispyware 2012 & Vista Antivirus 2012 using Malwarebytes Anti-Malware:
Your computer should now be free of the Vista AntiSpyware 2012 & Win 7 Home Security program. If your current anti-virus solution let this infection through, you may want to consider purchasing the PRO version of Malwarebytes Anti-Malware to protect against these types of threats in the future. If you are still having problems with your computer after completing these instructions, then please follow the steps outlined in the topic linked below: Preparation Guide For Use Before Using Malware Removal Tools and Requesting Help Associated Win 7 Antispyware 2012 & Vista Antivirus 2012 Files: <b>Please note that this infection uses random filenames. The filenames listed below are given as examples as to how they would appear.</b> Associated Win 7 Antispyware 2012 & Vista Antivirus 2012 Windows Registry Information: HKEY_USERS\.DEFAULT\Software\Microsoft\Internet Explorer\BrowserEmulation "TLDUpdates" = '1' This is a self-help guide. Use at your own risk. BleepingComputer.com can not be held responsible for problems that may occur by using this information. If you would like help with any of these fixes, you can ask for malware removal assistance in our Virus, Trojan, Spyware, and Malware Removal Logs forum.

He may have earned the nickname Mr Monaco for his race-winning performances in the Principality, but Graham Hill was similarly prolific at a very different type of circuit across the Atlantic - Watkins Glen. Ahead of the 2013 Formula 1 United States Grand Prix, we remember the 1965 edition and a race in which the Englishman survived changeable conditions to complete a historic treble
The winner of the 1965 drivers title had already been decided by the time the Formula One fraternity crossed the Atlantic in early October for round nine of the championship, the United States Grand Prix at Watkins Glen in upstate New York.
Jim Clark had been the class of the 65 field, taking a second drivers crown in three years by virtue of winning six of the eight Grands Prix to date in his superlative Lotus 33-Climax. Unsurprisingly the Scot arrived at the high-speed Watkins Glen circuit as the firm favourite, although a quick glance at the history books suggested his future team mate, Graham Hill, couldnt be discounted. In the four previous races at The Glen (as the diehard local fans referred to it), the moustachioed Englishman had finished fifth (1961), second (1962), first (1963) and first (1964)
One man who would not be pushing Clark and Hill for victory was 1964 world champion John Surtees, who just a week before the race had sustained serious injuries after crashing his Lola sportscar in testing at Mosport, Canada. His number-one status at Ferrari was therefore assumed by Lorenzo Bandini, whilst local interest would be sustained by the four Americans in the field: Brabhams Dan Gurney, Hondas Richie Ginther and Ronnie Bucknum and, making his Formula One racing debut, Ferraris Bob Bondurant.
Practice was run over four-hour sessions on both Friday and Saturday, although early running was blighted by both a rain-drenched surface and low cloud which hung over the picturesque wooded countryside surrounding the circuit. It was also very cool, with Clark going so far as to wear a woollen cardigan over his race overalls.
Hill set the early pace, leading BRM team mate Jackie Stewart around the undulating layout as the Scot, racing at Watkins Glen for the first time, learned the circuit as quickly as he could. Meanwhile, Clark and Gurney were experiencing issues with their Climax engines, both spewing oil over the track whenever their cars ventured out.
Saturday started a lot better for the new world champion as he and Hill traded fastest lap times in the final practice session. Clark would end the day having clocked the fastest lap time over the two sessions, but he had to make do with second place on the grid having set his best time at the wheel of team mate Mike Spences car after his engine had again hit problems. Fortunately for Lotus, Gurneys engine was in even worse shape than Clarks and when Brabham elected to change the Americans power plant, Clarks crew were able to take parts from the unit and repair their own overnight.
Unsurprisingly given the previous few days meteorological conditions, race day brought with it low hanging clouds and the constant threat of rain. At precisely 2.00pm - with conditions still dry - the field was waved off from the starting grid and Hill and Clark shot away from the front row, leading the field up the hill through the Esses. They remained locked together at the end of the first lap with Stewart close behind, ahead of a bunch containing Bandini, Spence, Jack Brabham and Gurney.
It was on this second lap that Clark pounced on Hill, taking advantage of the BRM drivers slight mistake at the final corner to power into the lead. Hill clung to his tail for the next couple of laps, but team mate Stewart was forced to pit with a broken throttle cable, the Scot making it back for repairs by virtue of hand-operating the throttle.
It was at this point that the heavens opened for the first time, and though Stewart made it back out on track, hed bent his front-wishbone running over a kerb on the first lap and whilst it caused no problems in the dry, his car was undriveable in the wet and he soon retired.
On lap 5, with the rain lashing down, Hill moved back into the lead. Shortly afterwards Spence brought his sickly Lotus into the pits and retirement, his engine having broken. If Spences retirement was a blow for Colin Chapmans team, then what happened two laps later was the knockout punch: Clark pulled into the pits and retirement with - you guessed it - an engine problem, specifically a broken piston.
With retirements thinning the field down to just 13 cars, Hill now had a healthy, if not comfortable, lead of 14 seconds over Gurney, Bandini and Brabham. If proof were needed that the circuit was still treacherous, Jochen Rindt provided it. The future world champion spun his Cooper twice in four laps going past the pits
As Hill continued to lead, behind him Brabham, Gurney and Bandini shuffled places - the Italian dropped back to fourth, whilst the Australian briefly took second from his American team mate before being re-passed on the 19th lap. Thus the lead order read: Hill, Gurney, Brabham, Bandini, and everything stayed pretty calm until the 37th lap when, after a brief respite, the rain returned.
Hill arrived at The Loop corner at the end of the back straight at full speed, only to find a completely slick surface awaiting him. The BRM slid onto the grass and by the time it rejoined the circuit Gurneys Brabham was right on its tail, Hills 15-second lead erased in an instant.
But try as he might, Gurney couldnt find a way past Hill and actually slipped back behind Brabham after making a mistake on the 48th lap. That gave the Australian the opportunity to challenge Hill - and he didnt waste it. On the 53rd lap Hill was badly baulked by Dickie Attwords lapped Lotus-BRM and Brabham slipped by into the lead. However, Brabhams turn at the front of the field was to be short-lived as he followed Hills and Gurneys example and made a mistake of his own, running onto the grass beside the pits and allowing both men past once more.
Hill would not relinquish the lead again, gradually eking out more of an advantage over Gurney as the track dried out. At the flag he was 12.5 seconds ahead of the American, with Brabham slipping to nearly a minute back and Bandini a lap down in fourth.
It had been hard work, but having taken pole, fastest lap and the win, Hill completed his remarkable US hat-trick in style.

@simrin-- You can use it whole or ground but I personally like to use it whole.
You can basically use long pepper in place of regular black pepper in any dish you like. Just put less in the beginning because since long pepper has that extra kick to it, it might be too much if you put the same amount as you would black pepper.
I think long pepper is really good in stews and soups, especially if you like very aromatic and slightly spicy stew. It would also be a fantastic addition to chili. That's what I plan on using long pepper in next.

App Description
Nicolas Poussin (15 June 1594 – 19 November 1665) was a French painter in the classical style. His work predominantly features clarity, logic, and order, and favors line over color. His work serves as an alternative to the dominant Baroque style of the 17th century. Until the 20th century he remained the major inspiration for such classically oriented artists as Jacques-Louis David, Jean-Auguste-Dominique Ingres and Paul Cézanne.Nicolas Poussin application is a great collection with photos of artworks with detailed info.

LOVE this Mascara. I've tried others by Mary Kay and Covergirl and others but this has by far worked the best for me. It has NEVER clumped my lashes but makes them look fuller and thicker.
very nice ;) i dislike mascara with small brushes, bit this one is BIG and it dries quickly, and you can just use one coat and it will be enough. its not waterproof which good because you can easily take it off by just simply washing your face with your face wash. so its easily removable.

This promotion seems a bit silly since it's so obvious by now.
It's so obviously vikings... You can even see the dragon head of a longboat just to the left of those cliffs. Hope they're going to roll back the date a little though. Even though I don't share the same love for drugged up barbarians who did nothing but kill and rape as many people seem to, I'd love to play as a nation that was struggling against them like Britain or France.
Just show us the whole pic!
Have I acted out the comedy well?
I look forward to the having the opportunity to play an underdog society and becoming a dominant force.

QUOTE by Wallain > Honestly I think the prices are just right. 10 euros is not more than I'd give for a good pizza and SoA is a great pizza.
Vikings just seem a bit out of the games time span - by 1066, the "Viking" raids had mostly stopped, though there were still plenty of Norsemen. I was really hoping for a pagan DLC dealing with eastern paganism - Zoroastrionism, or Romuva or something along those lines.
By now it is so obviously vikings that it must either really be vikings or clever misdirection.
EDIT: As far as I know most ships on the Norwegian Crusade were longships so longship does not necessarily mean viking raid.

Hollywood Machete Attack Hospitalizes Two Men; Possibly Sparked by Fruit Theft
Categories: Crime
collider.com |
Danny Trejo, the other Hollywood's Machete, is probably not the culprit. |
According to the Sun-Sentinel, the man on the receiving end of the machete whacks "lost a lot of blood" and was being treated for life-threatening injuries at Memorial Regional Hospital.
The men, both in their 30s, have had previous spats with each other -- although it's not clear why they have been fighting, the paper says.
One clue at the scene of the attack was a fruit-picking device, leading to the theory that fruit theft may have motivated the machete attack.
Neither man's name has been released by the cops, although police say the man wielding the machete also landed in the hospital after Friday's ruckus.
Several neighbors at the scene -- near Taft Street and North 58th Avenue -- reportedly witnessed the attack.
A call to Hollywood police for new information was not immediately returned.

Ongoing migration is a reality. The goal is not to end migration, but to value, respect and integrate the people who leave their homes in search of resources and safety.
Hello everyone. My name is Emily Akullu, and I work for Office of the President Uganda as Deputy Resident District Commissioner. I'm here to coordinate this discussion with young readers and those who love them. I will, in conjunction with other experts, be waiting to answer any questions that have been haunting you concerning migration. It will be my pleasure to see your side of the coin.
Migration defined
Human migration is the physical movement by humans from one area to another, sometimes over long distances or in large groups. Migration could be internal or external, national or international, later termed as immigration and emigration depending on the direction of trek.
Living with it
Migration has existed, with all its pros and cons, through centuries and centuries. It will likely continue to exist, as it is sometimes totally unavoidable. But how can we make it a fair deal, more bearable in instances where one cannot avoid it or otherwise control it? We can agree to the fact that these migrants can contribute to development!
So many conferences focusing on migration have been held at national, continental and global levels. But unfortunately, none of them has ever looked specifically at how to live with the fact that migration will always be there. They usually look at ways of reducing migration instead of how they can make migration and a migrant's life more bearable. Look at the Libyan conference on migration (2009); all the 30 ways forward focused on the former. It is important to find ways to reduce migration where possible, but in addition, we also need to make real commitments and take significant steps to help the struggles inherent to migration. It's also important to note that the most affected here are the youth, women and children.
Should it continue this way?
A family is thrown out (through corrupt court bailiffs) on grounds that they don't belong where they are simply because they are suspected to have come from elsewhere. For about a week, the family had taken refuge in an unfinished school building until the local authority came in. On the extreme right is the District Police Commander, Busia district.
Can the fate of migrants ever change?
But why not? This dream could come true if we share our opinions, take advantage of platforms like this, and hold forums like the forthcoming World Youth Conference scheduled for the 23rd to 28th, August 2010.
I work at the border district of Busia, Uganda, a district that stands in between Uganda and Kenya (East Africa). From what I have experienced, I know that we can control both internal and external migration, but the question is, should we achieve this at the extreme expense of the helpless migrants? We need to prepare ourselves to accept and live with the realities of migration.
Share your ideas and participate
Your view is important to us. You may not have gotten an opportunity to be at the World Youth Conference physically, but you can engage in this blog discussion and your opinion will be heard.
Questions on migration
It's my pleasure to host you, and I will be here to answer all your questions. Your comment is important to the usefulness of the whole blog post. I'm looking forward to your response!
In October 2007, at the age of 25, the President of the Republic of Uganda appointed me Deputy Resident District Commissioner at the border district of Busia, between Kenya and Uganda. I am currently acting as District Commissioner. I was chosen to represent the youth at the Young People's Self Co-coordinating Entity of the Uganda AIDS Commission. I was also elected the Executive Secretary to the Youth Network on Population and Development under UNFPA, Uganda, and I sit on the Youth Advisory Board of the Children's AIDS Fund. I develop behavioral change peer educators training manuals for organisations in HIV/AIDS related work. I am finalising a Masters Degree in Economics. Lastly, I help give self confidence and integrity talks to prospective models to improve and lengthen their lives.
In my country there aer two types of migrations. first is the labour force migration of rural youth and the next is the aborad study migration of urban youth. both have made serous impact in origon. their status in destination is also not so good.Recently iam studying the rural to uraban migration of rural poor and its role in slum formation. but still now migaration has not get pollicy level attantion in my country.
You are absolutely right, Tulsi. We policy makers have been treating migration only as a disease, but not been able to find the source of infection almost globally. However, we have a chance as the young generation to turn things round. As you mentioned, Rural-urban migration is the order of the day in every community, and if we agree that it's part of us, then we will make a fair deal out of it. I am glad that you are doing research on this and I am sure that through empirical data, we can be able to address this issue more accurately.
I hope that you will be able to share your findings with us later and that you will be able to translate your recommendations into action through the various stakeholders!
Thank you for that informative comment.
Norway like many other countries has done alot to intergrate immigrants and help them be constuctive in their new adopted country.
However this applies to legal immigrants only,so my question is how can such countries faily deal with what they call ilegal immigrants?
Dear Ambrose,
Thank you for contributing! That question that you just posed is the biggest dilemma world over today I guess. Illegal is such a terrible word in the ears of the migrant populace, but yet can't be avoided. My question is, isn't there a better way of handling this other than the commonly inhuman way in which sometimes the migrants are handled, much less the humiliation that they have to go through. I would only love that they be treated with such decency and understanding of what leads them to whichever circumstances
I Thank you once again
