Involvement:General (knows how to use it) - Ownership:1 week to 1 month
Pros:It looks good, works well. I like its band design a lot.
Very well packed.
The watch is HUGE, I thought it would be a simple thin watch but no, it has a little pendant watch mechanism in a huge translucent housing.
The silicon band isn't as flexible as I would like.
It does a really audible ticking.
The paint on the band where it has been bent looks like it's peeling.
The red R isn't as red as on the pictures. The white thing on the band has "rusty" written on it. The battery opening on the back is fake, don't try to open it as I did. To change battery you must unscrew the 8 little cruciform screws.
Now you know, don't buy it if you're looking for a thin watch. Otherwise, cheap good looking watch!

@ddljohn-- I don't think it's so simple. Hepatitis G is still a Hepatitis virus, whether it actually does damage or not.
I'm not an expert but I think that Hepatitis G might become active in the future and start causing damage. Or maybe it already is causing damage in ways we don't know about yet.
Hepatitis A also stays in acute mode, or inactive mode and doesn't directly cause illness either. But if you carry a virus, there is always a risk that it might become chronic or active later on.
Plus, Hepatitis G is rarely found by itself, it's usually found with another Hepatitis virus, either A, B, or C and we know that Hepatitis B and C can be dangerous.
So, to sum it up, it would not be right to infect HIV/AIDS patients with Hepatitis G. Scientist need to do much more research and studies on the interaction of the two.

NASHVILLE, Tenn. (AP) - Gov. Bill Haslam says he wants to leave it up to local governments to decide whether to set their own wage requirements for contractors.
Haslam's stance puts him at odds with some fellow Republicans in the State General Assembly.
Two Republican legislators have announced plans to submit a measure that would ban higher wage requirements set by local governments and repeal those standards already enacted.

Dirk Nowitzki mimics Van Gogh painting?
May, 4, 2012
Patrick Dorsey | ESPN.com
We delved into the world of art Thursday with sports-inspired versions of Edvard Munch's "The Scream." Later that night, Dirk Nowitzki of the Dallas Mavericks did us one better -- mimicking (sort of) Vincent Van Gogh's "Irises" during his game against the Oklahoma City Thunder.

Fashion press, buyers, and a moderate number of celebs flooded the Tuileries on Monday afternoon for the Dior show. Security was tight as drivers pulled in by the gates at Place de la Concorde. All in all, there were few celebs braving the Parisian humidity. Kanye West was a notable exception. He also hit the Vivienne Westwood show an hour earlier, along with fiancee Alexis Phifer. Is it just me, or is he looking like another one of the Black Eyed Peas in this ensemble?
Also in attendance at Dior was Her Royal Highness Princess Sirivannavari Nariratana. The Thai princess entered with a flood of entourage and security, looking regal and radiant as knowing paparazzi bowed down in respect. Her first collection debuted on Saturday at the Opera Garnier.
Ivana Trump, arm in arm with her longtime boyfriend Rossando Rubicondi, looked cool and collected, and very collagenized.
The always gracious Susan Tabak made an entrance to a flood of flashes. The author of Chic in Paris and fashion insider looked trim and energized, as various assistants made sure her perfect hair didn't succumb to the humidity.
And what would the show be without a character like Anna Piaggi, whose ensemble needs no analysis. She and other member of the fashion elite, including Carine Roitfeld and Hamish Bowles, entered to see the jaw-dropping show that featured a very 1930's Marlene Dietrich vibe.

- 2 teaspoon(s) Chinese five-spice powder
- 1/2 teaspoon(s) salt
- 1 (1 1/4-pound) beef flank steak
- 3 tablespoon(s) teriyaki sauce
- 2 teaspoon(s) brown sugar
- 1.5 teaspoon(s) minced peeled fresh ginger
- 1/4 teaspoon(s) Asian sesame oil
- 1 clove(s) garlic, crushed with press
- 4 medium (5 ounces each) Japanese eggplants
- 1 bunch(es) green onions (optional), trimmed
- Prepare outdoor grill for covered direct grilling over medium heat.
- In cup, combine five-spice powder and 1/2 teaspoon salt; use to rub all over flank steak. Set steak aside. In small bowl, with fork, mix teriyaki sauce, sugar, ginger, sesame oil, and garlic; set aside.
- With knife, trim eggplant stems, then cut each eggplant lengthwise in half. Score cut side of each half with 1/4-inch-deep slits to form a diamond pattern. With tongs, place eggplant, cut sides down, on hot grill rack. Grill 5 minutes or until cut sides are lightly browned.
- Fold 30" by 18" sheet of heavy-duty foil crosswise in half. Place grilled eggplants on double thickness of foil. Pour teriyaki mixture over eggplants. Bring long sides of foil up and over eggplants; fold several times to seal well, then fold in ends to seal tightly.
- Place steak on hot grill rack. Cover grill and cook steak 12 to 15 minutes for medium-rare or until desired doneness, turning over once. After steak has grilled 5 minutes, add foil packet with eggplants to same grill rack. Cook eggplants about 7 minutes or until very tender.
- When eggplants are done, transfer packet to plate. When steak is done, transfer to cutting board. Let steak stand 5 minutes to allow juices to set for easier slicing. If you like, add whole green onions to grill and cook 2 to 3 minutes or until tender, turning occasionally.
- To serve, with kitchen shears, cut an X in top of packet to let steam escape, then carefully pull back foil to open. Thinly slice steak diagonally across the grain. Serve with eggplants with their sauce and green onions if using.
Nutritional information is based on one serving of steak.
Each serving eggplants: About 55 calories, 2 g protein, 12 g carbohydrate, 1 g total fat (0 g saturated), 3 g fiber, 0 mg cholesterol, 520 mg sodium.

Ashly Processors and Amps Help Boston Landmark Improve Sound, Save Energy, and Save the Planet
BOSTON, MASSACHUSETTS: Because it has retained the charm and luxury of its Roaring Twenties heritage, The Boston Park Plaza Hotel and Towers was inducted as a member of the prestigious Historic Hotels of America. In addition to its upscale accommodations, the Park Plaza is well-known for its six ballrooms: the very large Imperial and Plaza ballrooms, and the smaller (but still large by other's standards) Georgian, Arlington, Berkeley, and Clarendon ballrooms. The Park Plaza is thus a prized location for meetings and parties of all kinds.
But behind the scenes, the hotel was growing increasingly frustrated with the audio system that served the ballrooms. A pair of seven-foot racks housed enough power amps to fry a dozen eggs while idling, and their opaque user controls flummoxed even the most audio-savvy hotel staff. At its root, there was no core control and no time alignment, equalization, or limiting. Audio/video integrator Balanced Input (North Attleboro, Massachusetts) helped "green" the Park Plaza by replacing the old 96-space rack system with a much smaller system centered on energy-conserving, and using great-sounding Ashly DSPs and amplifiers.
The audio system that was giving the hotel so much dissatisfaction was installed in 1996. Mark Waker, principal at Balanced Input, consulted with the hotel and offered a plan for a system that would give them ease of operation, while giving them a substantial energy savings. "The bones of the system were quite good, EAW boxes and Electro-Voice ceiling speakers, some tweeters needed but nothing major," Waker admitted, "but most of the amps had issues and the processing was simply missing. I knew we could save the speakers but the system desperately needed modern control and amplification to deliver."
The hotel is configured such that there is one equipment closet for the two larger ballrooms and a second equipment closet for the remaining four smaller ballrooms. Each of the closets contained a seven-foot, 48-space rack. Between them, ten amplifiers powered the speakers. "The fact is, these systems idle most of the time," said Waker. "They don't do much most of the day, but then when they have to work, well… they have to work! At any rate, they spend most of their time using energy to make heat, which the building's A/C system then has to use energy to cool down. With power-hungry amps in there, it was a big waste."
To each of the replacement racks Waker added an Ashly ne24.24M Protea DSP, "fully loaded" with modular expansion cards to offer a tremendous amount of processing power within two rack spaces. Each of the larger ballrooms received an Ashly ne8250 eight-channel power amp, whereas one ne8250 served all four of the smaller ballrooms. In addition, mp3 players and power conditioners added features that were entirely absent from the older system. Despite this, the rack size for the larger ballrooms shrank from 48 spaces to just twenty. Even more impressive, the rack size for the smaller ballrooms shrank from 48 spaces to just eight!
"Ashly amplifiers are 'energy savers,' but unlike most other 'energy savers,' they actually sound good," said Waker. "We wouldn't use them if they didn't. In fact, we use Ashly PE Series amps and Ashly Protea processors in our live rig. In addition, Ashly products are resolutely reliable, which greatly reduces service calls – a benefit to both the hotel and us, as getting into Boston is no picnic! All that power and reliability comes with a very reasonable price tag. In fact, they helped us to come in below the figure that the hotel had budgeted for, so we helped the hotel spend that money on LED lighting."
The old systems used to draw in excess of three amps while idling, more in the case of the bigger system. The new systems each draw less than one amp while idling. That represents a conservatively-estimated 60% reduction in power consumption, not even considering the lower load placed on the A/C system! In addition, with Ashly processing, any hotel staff member can use the system. "They just plug in a mixer or a mic, and clean audio comes out, no feedback, no fuss," said Waker. "We also installed Ashly wall remotes so that banqueting staff can adjust levels without needing to call a tech. Genius!"
ABOUT ASHLY AUDIO INC. With over a thirty-five year history, Ashly Audio Inc. is recognized as a world leader in designing and manufacturing quality signal processing equipment and power amplification for use in the commercial sound contracting and professional audio markets. www.ashly.com
PHOTO CAPTION Mark Waker of Balanced Input used Ashly Protea DSPs, coupled with the new Ashly ne8250 eight-channel power amplifiers to handle the processing and "greening" of Boston's famed Park Plaza Hotel by greatly reducing rack space, while providing, easy-to-use, great sounding, and efficient audio.

Meaning of the movement of electrons in the gravito-magnetic field created by the atomic nucleus. Mass of the electron and tunnel effect of the electron motion between orbits. Electron configuration and concept of the electron clouds.
2.c.2.b.3. Electron motion and massWe just saw what electrons are and the meaning of their motion within an orbit in dynamic equilibrium. We had also seen the special characteristics of the electron mass. Now we are going try to understand the configuration of the electron orbits from an analytical perspective; that is, which are the points of balance of the different forces are and why these points are found in what they call the point of gravito-magnetic potential trough. For a more simple presentation of the electron configuration, the electron motion and its mass, let's take a look at the following elements of the atom one by one in spite of the fact that they all coexist in the atomic structure. The idea is to persuade bit by bit:
I hope that with these general outlines I have managed to express the most pertinent ideas of Global Mechanics regarding electron motion, atom structure, and fundamental particles.

MFA advises Singaporeans against travelling to Egypt
Singapore's Ministry of Foreign Affairs (MFA) has issued a statement on Tuesday, advising Singaporeans to consider deferring non-essential trips to Egypt, especially the cities of Cairo, Alexandria and Suez.
Violent protests have roiled Egypt since last month as President Mohamed Mursi comes under immense pressure from the people and military to step down.
"The Ministry of Foreign Affairs and our Embassy in Cairo will continue to monitor the situation in Egypt closely and would like to advise Singaporeans who are currently in Egypt to take the necessary precautions for their personal safety," says the statement.
For their own safety, Singaporeans in Egypt are also advised to register with the ministry immediately at http://eregister.mfa.gov.sg/.

New breakthroughs in efficiency & size. The first all new antennas optimized for the post 2009 digital frequencies. Ultra efficient design now allows powerful antennas to be smaller than ever thought possible.
Popular antennas may claim high "peak" gains on specific frequencies, but the Clearstream models are consistently powerful across the entire DTV spectrum. With other compact antennas as little as 10% of the signal may actually reach the tuner. Advancements in efficiency mean that up to 98% of the signal actually makes it to the line rather than being lost to impedance mismatches which makes these the best DTV antennas around.
Clearstream 1 Clearstream 2 Clearstream 4
These Clearstream antennas are not priced low and then add ridiculously high shipping charges or a 15% restocking fee if you return it as on-line stores charge!

Predictors of Cervical Cancer Screening Among Vietnamese American Women

Get AccessAbstract
This study examines Pap testing behavior among 265 Vietnamese American women aged 18 or above. A community-based survey was conducted with Vietnamese women in five cities: Houston (TX), Springfield (MA), Camden (NJ), Charlotte (NC), and Falls Church (VA). Seventy-five percent of the study sample ever received a Pap test, 45 % within the last 12 months. Women's perceived risks of cancer, belief that cancer can be detected early with screening, and disagreement that it is embarrassing to get tested and that only married women should get tested are related to Pap testing. Having health insurance is the most important predictor of Pap testing. Main reasons for not having tested in the last 12 months include: feeling well, having no insurance, and high costs. Interventions should improve financial access to Pap testing among Vietnamese American women. Results also suggest that future communication programs should emphasize preventive practices and change traditional attitudes and misconceptions related to Pap testing.

Roe v. Wade: The Banality of Evil in Mr. Justice Blackmun Comments
When the case of Roe v. Wade, which started at the U.S. District Court in Texas, reached the "end of the line," Justice Blackmun wrote the majority (7-2) opinion. The decision he made was wrong, not wrong in any banal sense, but deadly and horrendously wrong. And from the terrible "end of the line," we have endured the terrible beginning of, and so-far have seen nothing but, unending lines of death. Endless women have lined up ... Continue Reading

Mr Greenwell My apologies to you.Point taken.Im sorry I took the ending too literal.It is an excellent article.I just am sick of liberal priests out there who have greatly watered down God's word since vatican 2.For instance some say that the catholic church teaches that no one is in hell.That is universalism and is a greatheresy.But what the church says is we cant say a PARTICULAR person is in hell.Because that person may have repented beforedeath and made it to heaven.But by the same token we cannotsay a particualrp[erson is in heaven because maybe a godly catholic in his last years ecame an immoral wicked atheist and died and went tohell.What the church does teach is heaven and hell is very populated but only God knows whomadeit or who didnt.Thats the realteaching.But thanks Great article

at first while i was reading i agreed with everything that was being said then i took a break then came back to finish........and now as much as I still agree that the "...banality of morals has indeed led to an endless line of deaths..." I am not sure focusing the article on one individual was the right approach...The approach could have ruined this man's chances of conversion...its never good to focus on the sinner rather the sin especially if its in public....moreover in a catholic website...am sorry the approach has not impressed me; God's mercy is to be shown to all as the sun rises to the good and the evil....the article should have taken a closer look at the judgement,its effect then and now and how banal morals were the cause....the banal morals of this particular individual was plainly in poor taste not to ever dare look at its effect on the soul....

Another brilliant commentary by Mr. Andrew M. Greenwell. Esq., that unfortunately (and myopically) short-circuited into Holocaust propaganda by stating "millions upon millions of Jews will cry out against the pleas of Eichmann." At that time, no such large numbers of Jews (communists) dwelt within the Third Reich's sphere of tyranny. Many fled or were expelled.The vast majority of the Reich's victims were Christians and non-Jews. Don't they count? If so, why weren't they even mentioned?

@harry reyhing. Do not take the ending to be theologically rigorous; you must give me some poetic license. It is in fact kind of tongue in cheek and trying softly to suggest where Blackmun may be. It is somewhere along the line of C. S. Lewis' quip that he could see how a hell for humans and a heaven for mosquitoes could be conveniently combined. A banal "heaven" is a literary euphemism for Hell.
2 years ago
Excellent article...two things should be emphasized. First, Blackmun was appointed by a Republican named Nixon..enough said. Furthermore, the "inspiration" from Harry's decision came not only from Lucifer and his usual offspring, but also from Justice Brennan, Roman Catholic, who was the brains behind the decision. Secondly, all of these issues are not a part of supernatural revelation essentially, but rather something that can be arrived at by human reason. All men are bound to follow the natural moral law, including those things surrounding abortion, sterilization, contraception, and sodomitical activity. There are many souls going to hell for such crimes and not all are Catholic.

"Many Americans rightly place more value on the lifetime of a 13 year old victim of rape or incest than on the potential life of the product of such an evil act. Those Americans are protected by our constitution - through the Supreme Court - from those who would impose their version of morality on us all."
It is not a "potential life" but a human life.
So you want to punish the innocent victims: the 13 y/o old and the unborn baby with an abortion? Not only will the 13 y/o suffer the trauma of rape but also the traumatic experience that is abortion and the post traumatic stress disorder that oftentimes comes along after an abortion.
Why should the unborn baby be punished for the crime? Shouldn't we punish the real criminal in this case and not these innocents? Are you not imposing your own morality as well in this case?

Great article.But I dont like the ending.what do u mean t6hat Eichman and Blackmun are in some banal heaven?What are you talking about?Both men IF they died unrepentent are in hell according to the Bible and 2000 years of church teaching.Unless you are one of the phony liberal post vat 2 catholics who water down Gods clear truth on hell.Both men if they truly repented could have made heaven after perhaps a long stay in purgatory.But if unrepentent they died with a mountain of mortal sins on their soul and are in hell

To Mr. Mark Holder - You are more than welcome to post any opinion on this website. But, please be open to honest, sincere and objective discussion: not ad hominem, but ad rem. Having said that, please feel free to read and listen to my Sunday homily for this weekend at http://www.fatherjames.org/2013/01/18/building-a-culture-of-life/.
2 years ago
Mark Holder, I regret to inform you that you suffer from a lack of understanding on Catholic teaching. As you readily admit, you being a non-catholic you are not aware of Catholic teaching concerning contraception. Contraception is an evil that has led to many of the issues we face in our society today such as underpopulation where we as humanity are no longer replacing ourselves. In reference to your comment earlier on, the 'potential' life is not potential at all. It is a human being! I would agree with you that the victim needs to be cared for! Amen to that! However, the child that was conceived due to the rape/ incest did not choose to be in that situation. That is something that we as humans have understood for a long time. That we do not choose what social class, family or situation we are born into! Therefore, I would argue that the child in the womb of the rape victim would much rather have a father who loves and cares both the child AND the mother. Also, I would like to point out that the child in the womb is having another persons morality (or lack of) forced on them when they are not afforded the basic rights that should be granted unto them. Lastly, the Supreme Court was in direct violation of their Consitutional boundaires when they ruld on Roe v. Wade and Doe v. Balton. It is sad that we had nine justices that ruled on a law that was never a law. The issue should have stayd with the states instead of being tackled by our federal government. This is where the issues of homosexual 'marriage' and abortion should stay. Thank you for your comments, they were a pleasure to read!

text: Thanks, guys, for pointing out *glibc*. I've taken a quick look, and I don't believe one needs to build it merely to update timezones. Please tell me what you think of this: These instructions make assumptions about where things are located based on the LFS 5.0 Book. They are a stepwise approach to fixing time-zone information to comply with new daylight-saving time (DST) begin/end dates mandated this year (2007) by the United States Congress in 2005. Those not affected by any of this (You know who you are, Canucks not excepted.) can ignore what follows. ====== Step A ====== What time zone do you *think* you're in? Run this quiz to find out: tzselect This prints the name of the time-zone information file relevant to your location. This is a binary file containing coded data. ====== Step B ====== Have you set the TZ environment variable? echo $TZ This prints the name of your configured time zone. It must be identical to the result from Step A. If not, thou shalt not go on to Step C. Stop now! ====== Step C ====== Do you have the same localtime file installed that you think you do? cmp /etc/localtime /usr/share/zoneinfo/$TZ If these two files compare equal (no difference reported), go on to Step D; otherwise, thou hast screwed something up and thou shouldst not. ====== Step D ====== Are you already compliant? zdump -v -c 2008 $TZ | tail -6 | head -4 This should print out the dates of the 2007 vernal and autumnal time changes. If they are in March and November, all is well. You have up-to-date time-zone info on your system, and there is absolutely no need for you to follow any further with this. Stop now! If they are in April and October, you are at risk of being an hour late after the middle of March, according to Congress. Pursue legality by following on to Step E. ====== Step E ====== Can you recreate this localtime file (just in case)? Untar your old *glibc*. cd /usr/src tar -zxvf glibc-2.3.2.tar.gz cd glibc-2.3.2/timezone zic -d /tmp/timezone northamerica cmp /etc/localtime /tmp/timezone/$TZ Thou shalt go on to Step F if, and only if, these two files compare equal (no difference reported); otherwise, you can't get back here if you need to. ====== Step F ====== Can you create something completely different? Download and untar a new *glibc*. rm -rf /tmp/timezone cd /usr/src tar -zxvf glibc-2.3.6.tar.gz cd glibc-2.3.6/timezone zic -d /tmp/timezone northamerica cmp /etc/localtime /tmp/timezone/$TZ Thou shalt go on to Step G if, and only if, these two files compare different; otherwise, there's no point to this exercise. ====== Step G ====== cd /usr/share/zoneinfo mkdir bak cp -a {America,Atlantic,Pacific} bak/ cd /usr/src/glibc-2.3.6/timezone zic -d /usr/share/zoneinfo northamerica cp -a /usr/share/zoneinfo/$TZ /etc/localtime At this point it's too late to go back, except that you might be able to restore the files in the /usr/share/zoneinfo/bak directory to their rightful place (or recompile the time-zone info from the old *glibc*) and then make a yet another copy of /etc/localtime. Go back to Step D to check the final configuration for compliance. -- .. Chuck Rhode, Sheboygan, WI, USA .. Weather: http://LacusVeris.com/WX .. 8° — Wind W 21 mph

Designed for Surface, Touch Cover is a revolutionary dual-purpose pressure-sensitive keyboard and protective cover. The bright, smooth surface lets you type up to 2x faster than onscreen. Email, chat, work, and connect with friends in style. Built-in trackpad and Windows shortcut keys give you quick, easy ways to navigate Surface. Touch Cover is spill-resistant and easy to clean.
This Surface Touch Cover might look pretty, but it delivers in other ways too. This cover provides a bright and smooth surface to make typing much more comfortable, and the pressure-sensing technology makes it quick to type on as well. If you are prone to the odd spill of coffee as you're typing, then the Touch Cover has your back here too because it's completely spill-resistant. Once you are done with your typing, simply flip the cover over, and you've converted your keyboard into a stylish screen protector.
Thin, Sleek, and Lightweight
Having the ability to take your device with you wherever you go is obviously a key asset of the Surface, so having a big bulky keyboard and cover along for the ride is not desirable. Thankfully, the Surface Touch Cover is not only thin at 3.25-milimeters, but it is also lightweight, weighing in at less than 0.46-pounds.
Type Faster
Don't let the thin appearance of the Touch Cover deceive you into thinking it's a lightweight in the keyboard-performance department. On the contrary, pressure-sensing technology and the capacitive-touch trackpad allow you to type up to twice as fast than typing on the screen. The addition of media and Windows shortcut keys also means you can work faster and navigate more easily.
Stylish Screen Protection
Of course, the Touch Cover for Surface doesn't just serve as a functional keyboard. When not in use, your cover simply flips over to protect your screen, so you have a keyboard and cover in one.

Prom Dresses 2013
Have nothing to wear to the prom yet? Did you know that shopping for prom dresses can be done online too? In fact, it is easier to shop for these online than go to the mall and sift through countless racks and so many designs. A click leads you to different shops specializing in evening gowns or prom dresses 2013. By simply just typing what you have in mind in your search, you'll arrive at websites, catering to your needs.
Sizes are not a problem too. Online shops usually offer their prom dresses in different sizes. One piece of advice though when buying a dress; do not choose a dress that's too small for you. Many girls do with the intent of losing weight a few weeks before the prom. It's always safer to buy a dress that fits you now and have it altered if in case you lost weight.

23 April 2010
The French holiday company, Club Med, has canceled the Lebanon leg of a cruise in the Mediterranean following protests from Jewish groups. Earlier, Club Med had warned that people with Israeli visas or stamps in their passports would not be allowed to board its cruise ship, the 'Club Med II', for the Lebanon-bound leg of the cruise as Lebanese authorities might bar them from entering the country.
The travel advisory drew a strong condemnation from the French Jewish umbrella group CRIF and other Jewish organizations.
"The message is sadly reminiscent of the exclusion policy of World War II Vichy France," the international relations director of the Simon Wiesenthal Center, Shimon Samuels, said in a letter to Club Med's chief executive. Club Med responded by canceling the Lebanon leg of the cruise. "It will be replaced by a new destination which will be announced soon," a statement by the leading package travel operator said.

There seems to be an underlying thought within the countries of the world, which is gaining fast and furious momentum in society. Israel is the thorn in the side of an entity that wants Israel extinguished, therefore making Jew hating acceptable once again.
Club Med did the right thing. France has to deal with the Islamic problem it has allowed asap or the consequences may be tragic!
The french need to grow a backbone.

12 interesting facts about Steve Nash
Nobody knows how Steve Nash's body will respond to the 2014-15 NBA season. We're not even sure if Steve Nash will be around for the 2014-15 NBA season, because though the move would be unlikely, the Los Angeles Lakers could waive Nash by using the stretch provision, and in reaction he may choose to retire rather than move onto another team.
— Kelly Dwyer
Whatever Nash decides on, he will have a bright future after the NBA. His talents go far beyond his skills on the court. Check out these 12 facts about the intriguing Steve Nash.

Beginning with the 2013 Spring term, non-Institute visiting students will be subject to a registration fee in each term in which they register. Fees per term are as follows:
Summer | $900 |
Fall | $1,500 |
Spring | $1,200 |
In addition, visiting students will be subject to the student life fee in each Fall or Spring term in which they register. The student life fee is set at $148 per term for the 2014-2015 academic year. Payment of the student life fee entitles a visiting student to use MIT's fitness facilities. The fee is also used to fund student life programming at MIT.
Students whose visiting student appointments do not correspond directly with the beginning of MIT's terms will still be charged the entire fee for that particular term. However, if a student leaves MIT before the end of the term, their registration fee may be pro-rated based on the Registration Fee Pro-ration Tables. A visiting student's faculty host or academic administrator should notify the Registrar's Office via e-mail that a student's appointment is coming to an end and the registration fee will be adjusted.
For more information or to ask about specific tuition situations please contact Peter Hayes, Associate Registrar, (617) 258-6406.

You're What I Want Wrong With Me | The Sick of Sarah Movie is an intimate, gritty film about 5 women rockers on the edge of stardom.
About this project
You're What I Want Wrong With Me | The Sick of Sarah Movie follows the working class, all-girl band from Minneapolis, Sick of Sarah, a phenomenon in the 13-30 demographic with no major record label but over two million downloads of their latest album, 2205.
I've already followed Sick of Sarah for two and a half weeks on their European tour, filming everything that happens in their lives on the road. It was just me (a forty-one year old dude) and five hot women rockers on their way to massive exposure. I had my camera on their beds while they slept, in their mouths while they ate-- things got intimate, gritty, and downright cool.
In mid-July, I am slated to embed with Sick of Sarah for 18 days of the Vans-branded Warped Tour, living out of their RV, eating their food, and filming every behind-the-scenes moment.
In early winter, I cap production by filming the Sick of Sarah recording sessions that will lead to the completion of their highly-anticipated next album.
The final project, You're What I Want Wrong With Me | The Sick of Sarah Movie, offers a rock-doc that's more important than a rock-doc. It's a movie about redemption, about love, and about every artist who ever spent a moment, a year, or a decade putting everything they had into their hopes for greatness.
Total Production costs for the film, including post-production (editing, sound design, deliverables, etc.) are capped at $30,000. So far, I've spent $5,000 of my personal money (everything I had) and have raised another $5,000 through private sponsorship, but $20,000 more is needed!
Please help. I will love you forever, and you'll get some good swag! And please, spread the link for this project! XO. J

Bad Boy Trouble: The Prequel
- Posted by Johanna on July 26, 2008 at 10:36 am
- Category: Archie Comics
Archie kicked off their "realistic"/New Look promotion (which has been running through various titles for the past two years) with a Betty & Veronica story called "Bad Boy Trouble". In it, Veronica takes up with a new boy in town, a biker who treats everyone badly. It takes four installments for her to realize that sneaking around, lying about what she's doing, and dating this guy are all bad ideas.
They did things different in the old days. In "Dumb Dates", reprinted in this month's Betty & Veronica Digest #186, Veronica learns the same lesson in six pages. And two of the pages looked like they wandered in from some other story altogether! Here's the intro, in which Archie has been invited to a Lodge yacht party:
Check out that 70s lingerie-top jumpsuit Veronica's wearing! Goes great with her shag haircut, doesn't it? I have no idea when this story first appeared, unfortunately.
Veronica and Dad go home, Dad swearing all the while about what a bad boyfriend Archie is. (I'd think he'd be more concerned that she's dressing like a slutty Love Boat extra.) She's upset that Dad wants to tell her who she should date. He makes the mistake of saying, "No one can be a worse baboon [than Archie]," while she's phoning said baboon about their date that night, a date he doesn't remember making. Archie comes to pick up Veronica anyway.
Turns out she's using him to get to her real boyfriend, who's even more unacceptable. And why does Veronica dress like she's a young matron for a date with a biker?
The next day, Veronica tells Archie she needs him to beard for her again, and he says, oh, ok, but just once more. In short: Archie is an idiot.
Archie's willing to face down a biker gang but doesn't have the cahones to tell Veronica that he's not her decoy? Meanwhile, she turns on a dime for no real good reason except that the story is almost over. Look at poor, stricken Rusty in that last panel.
On the last page, as Archie takes Veronica home, the two make up. She says she's sorry, he says he was jealous but knew she'd come back to him eventually. The final punchline? Dad still doesn't like Archie. It's a goofy, pointless story that bears no resemblance to real-world motivations or behavior… but in that way, it's not really any different from its more current counterpart.

July 26, 2008 at 8:02 PMI have the original buried somewhere in my collection (what?) so while I don't know the exact issue number, this story was in a B&V from the mid- to late-1980s. 1987 maybe?
So yeah, Veronica's outfit is kinda out of date. But check out the fat biker in a yellow shirt and black derby! He's got it goin' ON!
- Charles RB Says:
July 27, 2008 at 1:43 PMWas I _meant_ to feel sorry for Rusty? Cos that last panel of him made me feel sorry for him. Poor guy.
- Johanna Says:
July 27, 2008 at 2:35 PMWell, he did have to put up with a spoiled rich girl using him to tick off daddy and then dumping him… but I suspect he kind of deserved it.
- Charles RB Says:
July 28, 2008 at 5:46 AMI dunno, the first panel showing he's a wrong'un is basically "let's leave town together!" and the second could be him just having his masculinity challenged (imagine the low esteem he needs to be challenged by Archie!).
This is me doing a post-modern reading, of course – it's too easy to see that gang as harmless poseurs pretending to be tough (look at what they dress like!). Look at Rusty, he's about to cry!

It will be a challenge for the likes of Shikhar Dhawan and Rohit Sharma who are the newest members of the Test side to grapple with tricky pitches and the fiery pace of Dale Steyn and Morne Morkel. We will have to wait and watch how they deal with the pressure and expectations to perform well. Cheteshwar Pujara has some experience in SA so he will be quite confident about his batting. Virat Kohli has been in good touch and he will hopefully continue the same. Though, South African bowlers cannot be underestimated!
